I can't believe I let so many days go by without posting, oops! I'm sorry ladies, I promise I'll get it back together soon and get back to regular posting and visiting.
I have been fighting the flu or something for several days, and I just can't seem to kick it, the past couple of days tho my glands have been terribly swollen and are making swallowing almost impossible, almost makes me think my tonsils came back lol I've stayed pretty well zonked on Nyquil, it keeps me awake alot, but I'm staying pretty well dazed and confused lol I dozed off around 7 last night and then woke up after 11 with what felt like a hangover rofl I'm guessing that's what it was anyway, I've never had a "real" hangover in my life, even when I was younger and did my fair share of drinking on weekends.
Anyway..enough of that mess.. I have closed my Adoption Haven for awhile, and may make the closing permanent, I am just so mad and hurt I could scream. I ordered & paid for a custom back in July, and I have been screwed over by the artist, I haven't gotten it, she is ignoring my emails, I know she is reading them thanks to a cool lil program, and she won't give me my money back, and since it's been over 30 days I can't file a complaint with paypal! I guess only time will tell if I will ever have the heart to re-open the shoppe tho, but if I do it will be a good long while *sigh*

I know I'm late, but...better late than never lol

Does your husband help you out with the house work?
yes

Does your husband do things without being asked first?
most of the time, he's been slacking of a bit lately tho, I think he secretly likes my nagging lol

What is his best quality?
I don't think I could pic just one thing, he's sweet, caring, gentle, I could keep going..he's known as "the perfect husband" and he would give me the moon if I asked for it

What is the most romantic thing he has ever done?
hmm, this one is a toughy...I can't pick just one, to me it's all the little things that matter more than just one thing

How long have you been together?
almost 10 years!!

Friday Five

1. What vehicle do you drive?
1996 Ford F-150 extended cab

2. How long have you had it?
3 years or so

3. What is the coolest feature on your vehicle?
I don't know how to answer this one lol but probably my favorite thinng would be my dual exhaust, I love the rumble! lol

4. What is the most annoying thing about your vehicle?
I pretty much like everything about my truck, the only thing I wish it had was seats like I had in the Grand Prix, they were like a 7 way power

5. If money were no object, what vehicle would you be driving right now?
I change my mind so often lol but maybe a Cadillac Escalade or maybe the new Nissan Armada

Hey Aretha! I tried to e-mail you and got it back. I don't know why it didn't go through. Anyway, sorry you were sick. Maybe you could get in touch with me? ~ M ~

Posted by Mishay @ 10/11/2003 12:07 AM CST

Hope you're feeling better :) Sorry about the custom graphic problem :( And way sorry that you are shutting down the adoption shoppe :( :( I totally understand and respect your decision though. I had one that took me 2 months to get and it was only a sig tag not even a custom from scratch. Oh well, I guess that's just how it goes. Have a great weekend!!

Posted by Julie @ 10/10/2003 01:28 PM CST

Hi Aretha! Was out and about doing the blog hopping dance...ROTFL...Are you feeling better...I sure hope so. I think I may take the flu shot this year. Have a TERRIFIC weekend~Hugs~

Posted by Linda @ 10/09/2003 02:11 PM CST

Hey sweetie...I'm out blog hopping! Can you believe it? :o) I'm so sorry to hear that you're sick...I hope you're feeling better now. And I'm sorry about the graphic mess you are in with someone! If you need to talk, you know where to find me. :o)

Lotsa hugs!

Posted by Jana @ 10/09/2003 07:49 AM CST

Just out and about and wanted to say "HI". Sorry to hear about the problem with the graphic you ordered..I'd be pretty mad too! This flu/cold thing sure is getting around, hope you're feeling better soon :0

Posted by Tracy @ 10/08/2003 10:36 AM CST

Hi Aretha! That totally stinks about your adoption shoppe! Hopefully you will reopen it someday. *Ü*

Posted by Andrea @ 10/07/2003 10:49 PM CST

Hi Aretha! I hope you start feeling better soon. Everyone at my work has been pretty sick, so far I have seemed to not get it yet. I hope whoever you ordered that custom graphic from decides to do the right thing. I don't blame you for being upset about it, I would be ticked off! =0) Big Hugs

Posted by Mandy @ 10/07/2003 07:19 PM CST

What a bummer about being ripped off!! I'd be pretty steamed too!! Whatever you decide to do I'm with you 100% although I'll sure miss all your cuties! Hang in there, sweetie and take a break for awhile. *hugs*

Posted by Rebekah @ 10/07/2003 10:01 AM CST

Hi Aretha! I would be mad as @!#%*,too about the custom graphic. I am sorry that you closed your Adoption Haven, though. I hope you continue to do graphics cause I really like what you do. Hope you get feeling better soon. I just got over a sinus and ear infection...YUCK!!! Have a terrific Tuesday~Hugs~

Posted by Linda @ 10/07/2003 08:51 AM CST

Just wanted to pop on in and say Hi...did you get the email I sent ya? No hurry just curious my email has been acting up. Huggers

Posted by Kathleen @ 10/06/2003 05:47 PM CST

Hi Aretha, I hope you feel better! Everyone is getting sick around here, strep throat, fever, the works. I heard there are many problems like you experienced with graphic sites. Such a shame people are like that. Have a good Monday, hugs!

Posted by Kathy @ 10/06/2003 05:07 AM CST

I sure do hope you are feeling better, Aretha. Enjoy your Sunday! Big hugs!
