    I made sure that my children wore green to school and I have some awesome green fingernails right now. Otherwise, it's running around like crazy, typical Thursday. Maybe I'll make something green for dinner?

    I would love to join in. I'm 36 and have been married to my husband almost 5 years. I'm a stay at home mom to 2 girls. One will be 2 in April and the other will be 4 in June. I also have a 15 year old stepson that is with us every weekend and school vacations. I have about 70 pounds to lose and need all the support I can get. I look forward to meeting everyone.

    For St. Patrick's Day, I ate a green salad! LOL ... I'm not Irish or Catholic, and I don't like beer, so the day has not ever been too important to me.

    Edit: It's too early, how do you misspell "me"?

    LOL on the green salad! most likely the healthiest green choice I have heard.

    And I have misspelled simple words often, you are not alone :)

    OK, here is a question I am sure Matt will *LOVE* me for posting! Tends to apply to those married longer or have been together longer...

    Based on what happened to us on Wednesday, can you recall a time you and your spouse remember the same event way differently and it ensued an "argument" in front of others?

    OK, Matt and I really don't argue often... I like to say we have the the 3 Ds... disagreements, disappoints (in each other) and discussions... but on Wednesday as we were retelling a story we remembered it quite differently.

    Matt was telling a story about his college life and I was interjecting. This was about a Spanish 2 teacher (in college) that apparently got the position with her short skirts and curvy body. It was so bad that the students were making up words (to see what she knew) and she was giving them credit. Half the class didn't care and just wanted the A, but half the class, including Matt, needed to go on to Spanish 3.

    I interjected the story to say I encouraged him to address it with the powers that be and he was like (in front of Cathan's Spanish and Art teachers) "you didn't even know me then. You just heard the story so much you think you were a part of it!" We went on to bicker back and forth about the time frame and how long I was actually apart of his undergrad work. The teachers thought we were hilarious and "too funny."

    For the record, if Matt were to look up that class it was taken in the summer of 2000 and we were definitely together then. :)

    It was more humorous than anything. I think it is funny that he swears he didn't know me when this happened. Guess he wants to remember his college life as a single life!

    And for the record, I have been guilty of remembering things wrong myself for sure!! Maybe Matt will remember one when he gets home. So odd how we take one event that happened and our minds remember them differently.

    I think we all powered through it!!! AS of this morning....we are all doing much better!!! Lucky we had two bathrooms or we would of never made it!!! The hardest part is not being able to do anything about it!!! Watching the 5 year old....was so hard!!! She just did not understand!!!

    My hubby......on the other hand.....had what we call the "man cold"....because his was SOOO much worse then what we had!!! LOL!!! He will even tell you that his was way worse then ours was!!!! If I didn't love him so much....I might have put him outside with the dogs!!! LOL!!!

    Angie, this cracks me up! My husband gets the 'man cold' too! When I am sick, everything runs as normal at home (usually with me doing all the running!), but when he gets sick, it's like the entire universe has stopped and he needs constant attention! It's funny because my 8 year old son is picking up the habit!

    At first, my husband denied this happened....lol. While I was in labor with our son (our first born), my husband decided to eat an apple. He was eating his apple loudly. Mind you, I was in labor...and I had zero tolerance for any/all kinds of distracting noises. So I asked him politely to stop eating his apple. He put his apple away...but then decided to start chewing (and popping) gum. :noway: I think my hubby was nervous and a bit anxious to meet our son. Since he denied this happened, I had to resort to ask my mom and mother in law (they were in the hospital room with us) to confirm my story. They did. :laugh:

    We (mostly jokingly) argue that I always disagree with him.

    Now *that's* an argument that you just can NOT win! :laugh:
