TGIF, dammit!
My day is not going well. I woke up to a text from Cait who is not feeling good again. Anxiety, insomnia, panic attack. And all of this the day after I meet with the school re: absences. :frusty:

We were able to go through some of her absences and excuse a few of them so I think that she is down to 10 unexcused? At 18 she loses credit, and she still has 2 1/2 months of school to go. Damn, I can't take the stress. :kev::pout:

What are ya gonna do?

Personally, I am counting down the hours until I am outta here which makes me feel totally selfish. Gary is starting to come down from his manic phase and he will be down for the count for the next several days. Scott was in a bad mood yesterday, Cait and Brendan were bickering. The dogs are barking at everyone/thing now that we had the windows open.

On top of all of this, I am sorta freaking out about my appt on Monday with my LLMD. You all know that I want/need to have my PICC line pulled. But the last week, my pulse rate and tremors had been getting progressively worse, and yesterday was horrible- just so bad... I did my Forever IV which is one of the things that helps those symptoms and so far I feel good today. What the heck do I tell her????

6 hours-- 6 hours and I will be in PA....*breathe in, breathe out....*
I got this.
I do.
Really.

I hope that all of you have great days too.

xoxoxo!!!!!!!!!!!

Nancy- how awesome that you are enjoying the tablet, I can't scrap without mine, although I do use the mouse for a lot of the clicking and dragging. I have to press had on the pen to drag files form ACDSee to PS and I wish the pen had a scroll. Still kicking myself for ordering the tablet w/o the touch on it.
The weather has been just wonderful here too, although it is rainy. I noticed that too with the dogs at the park, they were panting really hard too, I guess they need an adjustment period too.

Trudy- Seriously-- 10!! It is amazing! I still think about when Oscraps was just a blog for freebies. I still have one of Vicki's kits form 2006- I should upload it to share the preview. Although she might have to kill me if I did. :rofl:
Was it nice hearing that your dad was with you? Bet you and your sisters laughed at that! Sorry to hear that your other sister didn't get good news, but I guess that it what is most crucial in her life right now.

Rae- Yikes about the storm, I hope that your roof gets fixed quickly. Ray is just like Taz- does not like loud noises at all. She will hide under me and shake.
Thanks for the advice for Ray too. B/c she was alway so mellow, we tended to"forget" about her as a "dog." Not sure if that makes sense, but we trained her when we got her, Harley always kept her in line. After Harley was gone, she was so depressed that she didn't do much of anything. Now that Jaida is around she is perking back up, and I guess she is feeling her oats, so to speak. thx again!

Good Morning ladies... So nice that it has finally stopped raining for a bit and there is actually a bit of blue sky out there! Lots of wind here on the Island also, but fortunately it was not in the direction for the branches to be falling in our yard for a change! So it will be our wonderful (not) neighbours that will be doing the clean up this time. Speaking of the worst neighbours in the world... It seems that they have acquired not one, but two puppies, which they let out very early every morning and they sit at the door and bark and bark and bark to be let back in. Now I know that you are all dog lovers here and I love dogs also, but not when they wake me up at 6am!!! I do not of course blame the dogs, I blame my idiot neighbours as if they were not loud enough with all the fighting, the cursing the kids playing in the hot tub at 11pm and screaming at the top of their lungs!! Now we have to listen to two dogs barking all the time. I think it is time to sell our house!! Or kill my neighbours :rollpin: I would rather do the later!!! Where is Phylis when I need her!!

Chris - Keep calm and breathe!! You will soon be on your way to your parents place, where you can relax and let them pamper you ! I hope that you enjoy each and every moment of alone time with them! Sorry to hear that Cait is still having stomach issues, I really hope that the GI dr. finds something that can make her feel better!!

I am waiting for a phone call from the repair guy to come and fix our fridge, it has been leaking on the floor, not a lot but DH can't find where the leak is coming from. We do not have it plumbed for the ice maker so it is not from that. The tray that catches the water from defrosting is dry as a bone, we can't figure out where the water is coming from. So hopefully he will have an easy fix for it! Of course it is one year past its warranty, isn't that when everything starts to fall apart?? Off to get some breakfast and spend some time here at the party today. Hope you can all make the chat that is happening today!! T.G.I.F. everyone!! :wave:
 
good morning! almost lunch time actually! I was out early getting hair cut and colored. Today is my baby's 29th birthday - time flies. My DH got up early and made Philly sticky buns which is what he wanted instead of a cake! Breakfast is my favorite meal too! He is home from the grand jury selection process and he was not chosen. He is glad he was not chosen! It would have been 2 days a week for 9 weeks. We are going out to lunch so that will be fun!

Chris breathe! You are going to have a great time! The weather should be really nice for this time of the year! So sorry to hear about Cait. Glad you got some of the absences excused.

Chris we took our puppy to the vet and he was a real charmer. On the way home we stopped at Petco and got one of those new harnesses that are to help with a dog that pulls. My son fixed it up this morning and wow it really does the job! It is the type that the leash fastens in front.

Trudy the leaf reading sounds so interesting! The shopping sounds really fun! Glad your wind storm was not too bad! That is so sad about the dogs just being thrown out side to bark. As a dog owner that just seems cruel!

Rae so glad that you are having such fun with the new dogs!

Have a great day all!
 
Good morning, ladies. Glad the wind storm is over. Taz survived. They said he hid out in the indoor play area for a few hours but at least he was walking around and sort of playing a bit with the dogs. But then when the wind died down he went outside and had a great day. We never lost our power here thankfully but all the areas around us did. So I was able to get all my work done which means today is busy this morning but then I'll have my afternoon and my evening free. Yay!

Chris - big hugs. What a week for you and your daughter. Poor Cait. Health should not impede education IMO. If she misses school b/c of illness she should not be penalized for it. I hope you take the time to really relax and unwind at your parents this wkend. You need it. Let all the worries go and focus on your inner wellness and peace.

Trudy - hope the fridge gets fixed and isn't too expensive. We too have neighbors that let their dog out and he barks and barks and drives us crazy. They are wonderful people but they just don't get it that their dog barking at all hours of the day and night bothers the neighbors around them. Little Gizmo is a yapper and can really go at it. We grit out teeth and wait it out. We don't want to cause problems, in every other way they are wonderful neighbors that we've know for 20 years.

Gotta go get my work done, have a great day, everyone!
 
Hi everyone!! Sorry I've been MIA this week - Hawaii has been beautiful. Windy, but so beautiful. We'll be wrapping up the week with fireworks on the beach tonight, which will be awesome. Jealous?! LOL

Just wanted to share a pic from today - this was take at the Sea Life Park, right as we were getting ready to leave. Saw a gentlemen who had all these parrots (macaws, cockatoos, etc.) and he would place them on you for photos (for a fee, of course, but worth it) -- this is my son, Stan ... and yes, he was as nervous as he looks!! LOL LOL

I have SO MANY PHOTOS to scrap -- can't wait to jump into the birthday celebrations next week, when we're in Australia ... that's "home" for me, so things won't be nearly as hectic since we won't be doing as many touristy type things.

Aloha!!
