Well My guess of 3000 miles was just a guess, but the computer tells me it is about 1,600 to 1,700 miles depending on the distance calculator I used. I just forget how large Texas is as it is 773(1,245 kilometers) miles from east to west across Texas. That is why a lot of people have never been out of their home state. Washington D.C. is in the northeastern part of the U.S. I myself have never been in the northeast or really care to for that matter!  Roll Eyes Well Ducky was checking your facebook pictures out this morning commenting on the family pictures. She thought it was great that y'all were all sitting as a family eating together!  Smiley Good to hear your tongue thrashing had a good effect on the bullies!  Grin I can just hear them talking amongst themselves about what a bully their mother is!  Shocked  Grin I know what you mean about some of the depressing posts on here. And often times they seem to repeat themselves over and over.  Undecided  I don't really like to read them either as it is quite depressing. Well I guess I better get busy as I have sat on my butt for the first hour of work now. Later. Love, clay

Hello, well I did go to the beach with Emily, and while we were there we met Kieran and Sean with their freinds aswell, so we had quite a nice afternoon.  I was not at all pleased to get home and find my husband had stolen my car!  Angry Angry I took my keys with me, but he had managed to find the spare set and had gone off out in it!  Angry I am really mad as he could have phoned me to ask if he could use it, he could have asked if I wanted to go with him wherever he was going, but no, he just went and took it anyway.  Angry He would go crazy if I took his stuff without asking him, and he has wrecked his car so that is why he took mine! I really am mad. It was just a lack of courtesy he could have asked.  Angry
Anyway, enough of that. I'm glad ducky liked my photos, I always make the kids have dinner together around the table, I think it is important. Ray and I eat later though so we don't sit with them unless it is a birthday or Christmas or other occasion. I know that is bad, but we eat different food to the kids as I'm usually on a diet and Ray prefers different stuff, and we rather eat in peace and quiet!!! 
Anyway, are you planning on going to the auction tomorrow? you haven't had any luck there lately have you? It must be a good time of year now with kids going off to college, parents buying them their first car etc!
Well, I should go and do some jobs as I have been out all day, I'll see you later.
love helen xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey there, I checked you out walking down the beach in your Facebook pictures. I tried using my binoculars to see you better but it didn't work!  Huh Anyway, glad you got to have some peace and solitude on your stroll.  Smiley So you experienced grand theft auto!  Shocked  Grin What did you do to the thief when you got hold of him? How bad is Ray's car wrecked?  Huh It bothered me a lot when we first started having kids that we grabbed a plate and retreated to the television as I wasn't raised like that. That is the way Ducky was raised  though so it was impossible bucking her on that point.  Undecided We eat together on special occasions though so at least they had that to remember. When I was growing up it was a time for family discussion of the days events and it brought us closer as we always ate as a family around the dining room table. I bought nothing at auction yesterday as the prices were so high I talked to a dealer that buys from 3 to 8 every week and he said he bought 1 and wished he'd kept his hand down as he was buried in it now!  Roll Eyes It has actually been extremely slow business wise for at least a month now. I had a great July, but the worst August in many years. It was the car biz in general as the August sales results came out yesterday and Some brands had their slowest month in over 20 years so it wasn't just me!  Cry Well I posted ads in 4 newspapers that go to 6 different towns so I hope that helps as it isn't cheap. I waited on a customer while writing this post that saw an ad so if I sell one car it will pay off for doing the ad. Ducky is having her gallbladder removed during the stomach surgery as the doctors say it is sick and has stones in it. Looks like she is on for this coming Wednesday. Guess that's about all for now. I'll check in awhile to see if you have been around. Love, clay

Hello, well I have had a very busy day! It is Terri's birthday today, she is 14.  Shocked I have also been rushing around like a taxi service to the kids all day!! First of all, Adam went to a party last night to celebrate the exam results (I took him and two freinds last night) anyway, I had to collect him this morning along with a different two freinds that I also drove back to their homes.  Roll Eyes After that, I had to go shopping for birhtday party food. Then after that, I took Sean, Kieran, Emily and Kierans freind to a beach town about five miles away, Sean was meant to be meeting up with two of his freinds but they stood him up, so I took the kids for lunch and we went to the park instead, there is a skate park there so that is why Kieran and his freind tagged along. Anyway, it was nice.
Well this afternoon, I've been doing my housework and then later I'm doing a party for Terri.
So anyway, what have you been up to the last couple of days? Did you get any bargains at the auction? I hope it wasn't as dissapointing as it has been lately.
Tomorrow I have to drive adam to the college to have an induction day. He has to stay there for a few hours and he will get his timetable and locker keys and a tour of all the campus etc, meet a few of the teaching staff and all that. While he is there, I plan to look around the city as I haven't been into that particular city before, so it will be something to do while I wait for him. It will be quite a long day as we have to get up early and it is a long drive away.  Roll Eyes
Well i should go and get started on the party food now, I'll see you later.
bye for now
love helen xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hey, I just posted at the same time as you! (post before this one) Damn you have been running around like a chicken with its head cut off!  Grin Happy birthday to Terri! I think I answered most your questions in our simultaneous post that you finished 3 minutes before I did. Have fun! Love, clay
