anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:17:03 PM)

twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:17:11 PM)

anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:17:32 PM)
we are still trying to work up to 3 cans anight--don't think that will be possible
twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:17:47 PM)

twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:18:18 PM)
my son takes a healthy lunch to school and then trades it all for junk food
anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:18:41 PM)

anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:25:09 PM)

twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:25:18 PM)
a russian wolfhound
anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:25:32 PM)
lol
twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:25:33 PM)

anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:25:44 PM)

twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:26:00 PM)

anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:26:25 PM)
he will be soon as contract ends in Nov
twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:26:44 PM)
have R take him some dosotoyevski to read maybe that will keep him busy
twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:26:58 PM)
think he will get new contract?
anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:27:17 PM)
he always brings stuff to read, but often just stares at R while he works
twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:27:31 PM)
that would drive me nuts
anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:27:37 PM)
yes, he will get another one after 100 days off
twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:27:46 PM)

anna (Oct 9, 2008 9:29:52 PM)

twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:31:13 PM)

twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:33:02 PM)

twinglema (Oct 9, 2008 9:33:29 PM)
