dyk I actually like the formal dining room without the red rug in there -- the room seems much bigger and the table and chairs look nicer on the oak hardwood rather than the dark red rug

dyk when the rug is clean, I think it's going in our room

dyk the faint smell of pee is completely gone -- I actually got down close and smelled the floor -- it has been effectively treated -- now we just need to sand it and then retreat it so that the color lightens back to match the surrounding shade

dyk legal rights or not, they are handling it poorly
dyk and inconsistent enforcement of a policy can invalidate it, though who wants the argument

dyk Dek had to redo his homework page -

dyk I erased every inch of it -- it was SO SLOPPY

dyk and I was talking to him about doing his best work each time -- and he interrupted me and said, 'Mom are you going to start quoting God again? Because I already know.... "

dyk ROFL -- b/c I so was about to quote the scripture we use for doing good work.

dyk yes, if they were to fire him for that -- we would definitely use that it wasn't enforced on EVERYONE as of the same day they implemented the Sean Madsen clause on Sean.

dyk that's what we're calling it. HAHA

dyk and it should be easy to prove because the policy should be signed and dated correct? but they are shady in this aspect.

dyk I really hope Sean can just find a new positiion and give notice and it never comes to that -- I don't need another fight.

dyk just two weeks ago one of the managers who was really up in arms about Sean's advertisment, was the one who helped another tech with a transmission that was FOR SIDE WORK

dyk whatever people

dyk I lucked out -- it is NOT raining whew!

dyk b/c I'd have to wake Ellie from her afternoon nap to go down to get Abi if it were!

dyk John and I are planning to take an Alaska cruise sometime in the next couple of summers
dyk I took my (step)grandmother on a Princess Alaska cruise about 15 years ago, but have not taken any other cruises
dyk so, for those of you who have scheduled cruises more recently . . . . do you usually use a travel agent or just scour the internet for deals?
dyk and if internet, do you usually book with the cruise line directly or go thru another site?
dyk I would appreciate recommendations for reliable websites and/or travel agents!
dyk thanks!

dyk and now the homework hour has begun

dyk we have some spelling words to study and her daily language and math page

dyk the outfit she wore to school today was a bit tight in my opinion -- she's grown since the start of the year and multiple washing have tightened her cotton pants... may be time to get some new ones in the size up and move the ones she has to be worn under dresses and skirts.
