cher913 Well, I was on mylot several years ago and have just recently rediscovered it so I am sure that I will be on the site more. As for when I will be on the site, the times will vary because I work part time and am helping my daughter plan her wedding!

cher913 No. I have gone to work a couple of times with no sleep but that was really difficult. It is very hard on your body to do that. It took me a couple of days to recover each time .

cher913 sounds like you are lacking some motivation. you have to learn how to make every day special and have some goals in mind and something to look forward to. for us, we are in the middle of getting out kitchen renovated and it is such a pain but i know that it...

cher913 today it is supposed to go up to 23 degrees Celsius but by Saturday the high will only be 3. there is a saying in German that April does pretty much what it wants weather wise so that seems to be what it happening now.

cher913 i think a lot of times these weather people don't know themselves what the weather will be. i think they give it there best guess (after looking at all the data and whatnot) but i have found they seem to be wrong a lot of the times too.
