hi friend! Cool of you to check in, I for one am happy to share smooches regardless :D

And thanks Kat for the list tip, that was useful. Event is progressing nicely, I got two zombie skins (thanks to one being given out for free!) and am infected with the next thing. Wheee!

Current flower count: 350, also not too shabby :)

Ooohh hahaha! Someone who reposts my list! Awesome. I will admit, when my posts are 2 or 3 down the board, not having the list at the top irks me sometimes. I get over it, but I'm like, UGH! :P

Lists or kisses in the forums (like the NON kissing booth threads) is how the event kisses used to always happen. For me, I prefer to kiss my friends or people I know that are trying to get lots of kisses, so I always use my list. I use it for all events. Kissing, Dancing, Flowering and TOTing.

Berry - Don't forget I have more trades up for you, while kumos was down. I'll try to send over what I collected yesterday and today in gift boxes later.

I did just realize I left my name off the kiss list, if you want to add me :P I always forget to do that usually until someone reminds me. And in this forum, there isn't the kiss link under my HA like there would be in the survival forum.

Oh, yes! I saw how handy it was to have the list on top, so I figured I'd add it to my post when I saw it was on a new page. Also added you to the list now, too!

Thanks for the trade reminders also, apparently I need reminding :D

Yep! Its so handy!! :D Got the trades accepted....I've been MIA lol I went to IHOP for breakfast, to Ross to dress shop and then to Sams club to shop. Still need a few other things, so I'll go to walmart/Ingles in the morning I guess. I spent a lot less at Sams than I expected to, but I priced checked some things, and decided the dishwasher pods were cheaper at walmart, but then decided to try the liquid, which was even cheaper at Sams. And I didn't buy any meat at Sams, so thats why I'll have to go to Ingles. I have plenty of steaks, and some chicken, but nothing else now.

ooh I have progressed. I now have kitty/veggie head :P

[edit] Ok. Did my philosophy part 4. Turned that in. Completed the Theorist/Theories/Research part of my lesson plan 2. Next week I will be teaching that lesson. I need to remember to take pictures and write the assessment info down.

I will be going over to my neighbors in about an hour to play games. I've completed all of kumos, all of legacy - except drills and battle. I'm working on battle right now.

[edit] 740pm Well. Naturally. My zombie skin finished, and I went to get my freebie and then start a new strain - and kumos goes down. Also I had SUCH a wonderful rest of my day with idiots (my son and his separated wife) and their communication/issues.... But we have the last TWO W-2 forms now. So he can do his taxes. But they were both idiots and ashholes to each other and she was rude to me too. Via text so I ignored it.

Good Morning All , I sent over 4 or 5 giftboxes of flowers this morning!! :)

Good morning, and thank you for the flowers, Kat :D my flower count is 670, which I looked up is 44.67% - close to halfway there! In the Parlour I'm up to year 2017, trying to collect ALL wearables and beanbags. Still plenty of kissing to do for sure, but I'm on track. Happy Survival!

Awesome!! You are doing great for your first event!! :D

I signed up for an old skin, pinkie patch this time. I need 3 more from that year after this one. But I also want to get the other two new ones from this year. I guess next time I'll swtich back to this year and then go back and forth....then decide a new year once those are done, if there is still time.

Whoooo you'll be so proud. I scored some awesome meat deals. Mind, they were "reduced for quick sale" but I got SIX packages of hamburger meat, $4 a lb, the GOOD STUFF (93% lean!!) AMAZING price for that!! I also got some pork ribs on sale, and some other random bits, fairly decent price. Did not NEED all that meat right now, but why not stock up? I'm set for like a month now LOL

Whoohoo, I am happy for you! That IS an incredible deal! I haven't found any in so long :(

I'd buy them too, or as many as I could.. they'll totally last in the freezer!

What a busy few days.. Cabaret was Friday night (Lily did awesome, even though her music messed up!) then yesterday morning I got up, ran to Walmart (and then Weis, because Walmart iddn't have my apples, and they didn't have bean sprouts..), then the bank.. got home and dropped off the groceries quick and then went to the library.

No one showed up for storytime, but we did spend 2 hours going through the shelves and getting rid of books. I was in the young adult section and.. yikes. I got rid of SO many. Anything that was very clearly early 90s, anything super yellow and crunch, anything that hadn't been taken out since before 2010.. and sadly, a bunch from the bottom shelves that were mildewy :( I cleared 3 entire shelves, and still have 5 sections left.. which isn't too bad, really! I got half done.

Then I ran home, angrily ate a handful of cashews and we went to the Everhart Museum (it was percussions day out, so we had to bring Iz anyway.. and one of the kids had their art hanging in the museum, so that was very cool!) and then we went for a nice long walk because it was almost SIXTY degrees out! Very exciting!

Went out to DQ for a very early dinner (it was like 3:30 LOL. Wonderful though!) and then I came home and took a bath.

This morning I woke up, started folding the THREE loads of laundry that I've washed over the last two days (I didn't do our laundry Wednesday like I normally do :/), I've got the second load of towels (and Izys sheet!) in now.. went to church, planned some fundraisers for Lilys Dublin trip to the YPMC, and then we went to town AGAIN to get her her passport photos done, so we're all set for the appointment Thursday.

So a very busy weekend but.. it was fun! I'm going to be exhausted, though :P

I set two aside for my neighbor, as we try to share when we find great deals, and she wanted two of the six. I divided one up in half, for tacos tonight and meatloaf tomorrow dinners. And the other three I divided into thirds, into ziplock bags and froze :D And they were SO FRESH!! Like, not a speck of brown/old meat!! :D I LOVE that!

yes, I saw you had some busy times, all the photos of activities :) Hope it was fun!! Ooh she's going overseas?? How exciting!! Katie didn't get to do an overseas trip in HS, she would have been the only one who managed to do it. She did go to New York tho, and found that very exciting!

Aww and EWW for the library things. I hate when books are nasty. Old books aren't necessarily bad to me, but if no one is interested in them at all, then it makes sense to remove and get newer ones people are interested in.

I've been doing laundry myself. Half of it is put away, the other half is folded but still on my bed, or on my bed to be hung up. I have towels in the washer.

And I just finished finalizing week 2 lesson plans (I start teaching week one tomorrow!!) :o So I have it printed out, am going to copy it for my professor and give it to her Thursday when she comes, after my lead teacher looks over it (but I'm sure its fine). Now I need to finalize week 3, and make a BUNCH of progress on week 4. I don't even have small groups for week 4 LOL Bad me. But to be fair, it is a bit of time before then so I'm sure I'll figure it out.

[edit] 2pm I just went online to my class, all the assignments in the one class are graded. Full points, 100% go me! :D That one is DONE now. I looked at my other class (the student teaching). And I only have 5 more assignments to complete there. Not bad at all. Though some of them are more involved. That PLP is a pain. I REALLY need to get going on it, because I wanted to have my professor look at it on Thursday. But I can always email it to her instead if I don't make any progress on it before then.

Hell yeah on that deal Kat! Love some fresh meat for little money. And so nice to share it with the neighbor too!

Mieke oh no, not the library books D: mildew is unfortunate! Did the books get wet / damp? Or do we not know the cause of it?

Current Subeta woe: my avatar will not save any changes, and is stuck on a strain that matured yesterday. And it looks spooky!

Edit: woah you two! Thanks to the help, I have 910 flowers put down :D Achievement in reach!

Just FYI, tomorrow I won't be able to do much of Subeta, I have time off and we're doing a little daytrip to my college city - there's a new museum there my husband wanted to check out.

ohhh forum on kumos looks different on my phone now. updated I guess.

1st day of "solo teaching" more or less done. (its naptime, snack and dismissal now)....honestly my teaching part is over at lunchtime. i think overall it went well. i expected a little confusion from the kids since it was me and she was in the room...but no confusion today. lol

Congratulations on your solo teaching, kat!

And oooh, I love museums Berry! I hope you have a great time!

Thanks Mieke :) I'm trying to get as much done and included in these lesson plans and stuff as possible. I printed off "instructions" to put with the small groups (myself and the lead teacher have been doing it for so long we know what to do) since one of the main things on our official lesson plans is to have "word for word instructions so that if someone walked in and said "I am teaching your lesson today" you can hand it over and they can do it". :/ Eh. So. yeah. Trying to include that, even though its probably not really required.

Need to work on week 4 lesson plans and change one song on week 3 - I realized that Friday in week 3 is the first day of spring and I know a really cute spring song I want to put on the lesson plan instead!

Berry - Museums can be fun! I hope you enjoy your trip!

[edit] 540pm Ok ladies. Things are getting real. I have my "formal" dress for the wedding itself, two options I am debating for the rehearsal/dinnner (I bought them so they wouldn't disappear while I considered them, and either would be good for non-formal weddings, funerals and/or dressy days for school/work), but would like to find a different one I liked better, but in my size (it was too small, the one I found). Am debating going to three other Ross stores within a 25mile radius of me to look. I have shoes to go with the "formal' dress. And I just booked my hotel for Thurs night and Fri night. Rehearsal is at 4pm, dinner after. Wedding Friday at 5pm or something. (not sure exactly - I STILL don't have an actual invitation!!)

Good Morning! I just finished my kumos quests. Yes. I'm up too early again.

- I noticed the survival flowers haven't been showing up on legacy since yesterday afternoon. I made a forum post in the event/bugs forum to see what I can find out. I will send over what I have in just a few minutes. However, if you didn't already know - the Seedlings shop sells them, and I'm pretty sure you can place them on the memorial all year long for the achievement (I am not positive on that, but I think so....)

edit: 645 am - made it to Taffy on the kiss list, off to work now. See you all later!

Good morning from Europe! I went to bed early yesterday and still woke up feeling tired this morning. Yawn! Oh well. At least I got some good sleep. Maybe I got too much sleep and that has me feeling a bit off now. Human bodies are so complicated, haha.

Kat I also noticed the lack of Survival flowers! I went and bought some from user shops to put at the memorial instead because I wanted to hit a thousand, and I did! Then went to grab some extra from Seedlings. I think you're correct about the achievement - the achievement text itself at least doesn't say it needs to be during Survival. I'll still aim to finish it within the event, and I think I can manage even if the collection part is over - current flower count is 1'125 - so only 375 to go!

New mechanic in the kissing booths - Autopilot! Kisses a random person every 20 minutes, but can only be active in one booth at a time. I'm trying it out in one of my 5 now during the day - just a little less manual kissing - and plan to move it to the CCA booth for when I'm asleep.

I love a formal dress! I think it's worth going out of your way to find the one you love that fits you. And hopefully you'll get updated on precise time as well!

Oooh yes, that is a really nice new feature, especially for those who need lots of hearts!! I like that the manual kissing still works as well - I am assuming manual kissing in the booth as well as in regular forums like my list here on legacy. I will have to try. Not sure exactly if I will use it, maybe at least once to try it.... overnight, like you said. But if it runs for 12 hours - I'm usually only in bed less than 8 hours LOL I think I will start it this morning just to see how it works. I have been falling asleep early the past few days, and so naturally, waking up too early also. I think I need to try and find something more active to do later in the evening, after 7pm, maybe dishes or chores for a little bit, see if it wakes me up, instead of sitting in my chair or bed, reading.

Katie's bringing me an invite this week or next week when she comes up to Griffin. I just can't remember if she said 5 or 530 for the wedding. I'll be there that day all day anyway LOL My ex is driving up Wednesday, my dad is coming in on an airline sometime Thursday, I don't know about my mom, they're driving from Florida, so probably just Friday since I don't think Katie invited any of her grandparents to the rehearsal/dinner.

I edited my kiss list:

Hello again all! I have been working like mad on my lesson plans, and trying to add to my PLP. My professor comes to observe tomorrow and I want her to have as much to assess me on as possible :P

Also I want some input on the PLP to see if I am on the right track with it.

ughhh sorry guys, been busy again. And just.. tired?

Plus today was one of those days.. you know one of those days where nothing BIG is wrong, but just like.. nothing goes the way it should and it's just a little off or a bit annoying or bad and just like.. erghhhh LOL.

Anyway! Lily is just about back from her conference and I'm excited to hear about her last two days!

Hey Mieke!! Yep. We all have "off days" sometimes. Sorry you were having one today. Oooh Exciting for Lily. I hope she had fun, and has wonderful things to tell you!

I've been tired too - but for me, its because I got woke up early and now I'm in a stupid cycle of fall asleep early, wake up early. I literally was asleep before 9pm last night. Ugh. So of course, I was awake before 5 AGAIN.

Right now I don't know if I want to go work on my PLP or other stuff more, or finish my quests, or just go read. Or I could go put together my new mini chainsaw my mom and dad sent me LOL

I feel like my virus isn't progressing? But I also think this is one of the years that had really long timers between stages....and extra stages too if I remember right.

Wait I'm asleep before 9 most of the time LOL. Though I do get up at 5:30 anyway.. today I woke up at 430 though.. and the day did.. not get better :P

INCLUDING the fact that I apparently wasn't paying attention to the packaging and did you know THEY SELL SCENTED PADS who does that first of all who is the market for that and second of all didn't everyone learn not to put anything scented down there and third of all WHY DON"T THEY SAY IT IN BIGGER WRITING ON THE PACKAGING and fourth of all APPARENTLY I AM ALLERGIC TO THEM so that really was just the topping on todays suck cake LOL
