Cynthia,
I wasn't trying to argue with you-I was just having fun! Sorry it didn't come across that way.
You didn't. I was teasing you. Sorry. I should have used a smiley.

We have had terrorists try to come through the Peace Arch crossing, which is a major border crossing. Many terrorists figure they have a better chance of going through where there is a lot of traffic, since they will perhaps not receive as much scrutiny.

Is there chat tonight?
I gave Noah his eye drops. So far, so good, he actually put his down nice for me. The Atropine (sp?) Could have some nasty side affects. Pray that it doesn't.

Donna,
You're right-vinegar will work. All I need to do is buy some-I'm out of it and put it in a bowl and then put the bowl in the insert. The vinegar should absorb the odor from the insert.

DD2 has been hung up on long division. ALl the steps and estimating is driving her nuts. I decided to take a break from doing "division" and have her do problems like _____ X 18=486. Teaching her to estimate what was close and then to figure out what it needed to end with to get the last digit correct. For at least a week I would get through about 3 problems where I did most of it and she just looked at me like I was losing my mind. Eventually she would get so frustrated we had to quit. Well, today she just did 6 problems, basically on her own with no tears. YAY!!!!

He is taking the plumbing apart? Judy, the last time you told us he did that, he gave it to the neighbors and never replaced it. How old is your husband?

Judii,
Some of us use Mozilla as our browser and are quite happy with it. Something went wrong with the download because you should be able to have all the buttons for CW.
Your son may have set Mozilla as your start up option which explains why you can't find IE. You can always search for it by clicking on your start button, click the search open and then type in internet explorer.
Forgot to add-once Mozilla was installed was the computer shut down and then restarted? Most of the time when you install something new, you have to restart the computer in order for the program to work properly.

We use Mozilla Firefox. I like it, but it does not work with some things (links or windows will not open up as needed). I use both of them, just open IE when I see a problem. It does not happen very often.

I use Mozilla Firefox. The spell checker is a great feature.

Judy, the goat in the picture is alive, well, and (we hope) bred. 
We haven't gotten passports either, mainly because if I remember correctly they're about $100 a pop. That's a lot of money when you have as many people as we have here. I will miss going to Canada, though. We used to spend a lot of time at Niagara Falls. My cousins used to live on the American side and we'd just walk over the bridge. We've actually been discussing the whole passport thing and will most likely get one every few months until we all have them, because we'd like to be able to go on some of the mission trips our church is involved with. That won't start until we have a few other things paid for, though.
Two of the dogs got stupid and went after one of the cats the other day. They didn't intend to hurt her - they were outside romping around and didn't see any reason why the cat shouldn't join in on the fun.  Nobody actually saw what happened, but the most likely scenario is that she got pounced on by an 80 lb dog going at full speed. I don't think she's badly injured - she is up and around a little, albeit slowly, and she still purrs and allows us to pick her up. We gave her something for pain and are keeping her quiet. Nike got a good gash on her ear from the cat, which she totally deserved, but the funniest thing is that now she wants to take care of the cat. Of course Moogle wants nothing to do with her, so she lays down a little bit away and whines and looks all worried. It's hysterical.

Poor kitty!!
I found IE and set it as the default browser. I am still going to use Mozilla, too.
Cindy, a friend of ours has a Barbados sheep. It looks just like a goat.
Here's a link to some pictures.

I've never had a passport. Dh shocked me yesterday. He has a couple of international travels coming up. He has suggested that I go with him. Each trip would be 10 days. Um... 4 kids? That we are home schooling?? And what do you plan to do with them??? I'm such a home body that I probably woulnd't go anyway.
I am pretty miserable today. My allergies are terrible. I took chlortrimaton this morning, which usually does the trick. Nuthin'. This afternoon I took Zyrtec. Again, nuthin'. I'm afraid I'm going to end up dehydrated due to snot output!

His-Are there any homeschooling friends that your kids can stay with......maybe separately. How international are these trips? If it were me, I'd be on my way to the post office for a passport app because it might be my only chance to go

Bagel--IRL I have no friends. We used to be part of a co-op, but due to politics we left. So I don't know what dh plans to do with the kids. I really have no desire to travel, though.

because it is in its final season. They've decided not to do any more episodes after this year. Royal Canadian Air Farce is ending this year as well. 
...not anything else to say...just wanted to wave!!
