I hope he is OK - he amused himself yesterday by swallowing a penny.  What will this child think of next?  &quot;I put it in my belly so I wouldn&#39;t lose it&quot; was his reasoning.   Thank goodness it wasn&#39;t a quarter.   Dr. said it should all work its way out in the few days.     He&#39;ll go to school on Tuesday &amp; Thursday mornings from 8:30 to 11:30 and is very excited.    We will see what happens when Deb &amp; Mike actually walk out the door.  <br /><br />Joey - about the biggest thing you missed while you were away is the record number of posts for August where we had 2,052 posts to the daily dock..   A posting frenzy on August 31st set a very high bar for us to aim for in September.    Good luck today with JD.   I know I complained bitterly about serving last month but that was strictly because I had to travel so far away.   I&#39;d enjoy serving if I could do so locally.   <br /><br />Cheryl - your wedding ring is absolutely gorgeous.    I think that what these men don&#39;t realize is that no matter how tiny &amp; petite a woman is she has extremely strong muscles running thru her ring finger so no sized stone is too heavy.   lol    Hope Greg got back to sleep after the ringtone incident last night.<br /><br />Howard - now that your orientation is over I hope you have a great day at work.<br /><br />Jenn - the picture of the pooch cooking dinner is the best.    Hope the chef had everything ready and you had a nice visit with your brother &amp; sister-in-law.   How long will they be staying.<br /><br />Jackie - great photos from the Mariner.   Looking forward to seeing more.    I&#39;m sure you are excited about South Africa and seeing your DD again.<br /><br />Andrea - I hope your days begin to get easier for you.    You have such a full plate - you need a rest.  <br /><br />Robert - keeping fingers and toes crossed that things clear up for your cruise.   <br /><br />Tonia - great to see you posting again.   I miss you when you don&#39;t check in.<br /><br />Keith &amp; Rita - how are your grandkids who were injured?  Hope they are healing OK. <br /><br />Steve - I&#39;m sure Gramps is ready for his cruise and we&#39;d love to see a picture of him (and you and Lynda of course) on board.<br /><br />Ed - Good luck with the next group cruise.   I know they are a lot of work.  I hope you have a great turnout.<br /><br />Shaunna - good idea waiting til vacation time is over to change jobs.   You worked hard for your vacation time and should enjoy it.  <br /><br />Falina - Hope the students behave themselves this week.<br /><br />Everyone - I need to get moving if I&#39;m going with TJ.   I have to be at their house by 8AM and then I might as well keep going and run my errands.  I&#39;ll check back later as I&#39;ll be in and out all day.<br /><br />Make today a special day and share a smile with someone.
