[QUOTE="slsh, post: 687132, member: 8"] Morning all! Pigless - adaptive PE. Brings back fond memories. For a while, oldest didn't have a 1:1 nurse so I went to school with him (one of our bitter power struggles with sped director from Hades, LOL), and by far the adaptive PE was the best time. He's essentially a quad, so no running or dancing or arm exercises, but he *loves* motion, and having that huge gym open for us to wheel him around to music made him howl with laughter. It was great because there would only be his tiny self-contained class in there so he could be as loud as he wanted. Rainy day here. Tulips are blooming (I think - hard to tell with all the doggone dandelions, LOL). We barked in our entire front yard years ago to cut down on maintenance - it's looking disturbingly green right now. Need to spend a weekend pulling weeds, but.... it's still too cold for me. :frozen: My house is a wreck, and Diva graduates in less than 3 weeks. With family coming, I have got to get this place in shape, but I'm having a hard time finding motivation. And I'm about ready to shave our dog. She's an all black border collie/flat coat retriever, absolutely the sweetest most amazing dog in the world and I have fallen head over heels in love with her - we've had her about a year and a half, and I'm *not* a dog person usually, but this animal.... I finally understand the doggie/human connection. But she sheds, like I could make a new litter of puppies a day from her shedding. And the dirt.... and she slobbers all over the front window (and curtain) waiting for her various people to return home (or barking at the mailman). I wonder if I could just put her in a big baggie until after graduation, LOL. Sigh. Saw the venue last night where Diva and a friend are having a graduation party. Oh. My. Gosh. It's huge (other mom rented it). I'm trying to figure out how to decorate a 45' x 45' room for the dancing portion. I should've started working on this 3 months ago, but Diva is not known for her communication skills so I didn't know. The party is in 3 weeks.... [B]And can anyone give me hints on how to cook for a boat load of people? [/B] Seriously - I need hints/tips. They're inviting 200, so we're expecting about 100? But OMG - 100 people? I have a hard time cooking for 6!!!! We're doing finger foods, hors d'oerves (sp?) kind of things, but still.... the thought of 100 cupcakes is making me hyperventilate. And my kitchen is slightly larger than your average closet. :faint: Ahhh well, it will all work out. I was a room mom for years so .... this will be my final hurrah in that department. But I have to get started like... right now! Hope you all have a good day. Be safe. [/QUOTE]
