Daily Ooo's Thursday July 23

[faerywings]

ooh I had to double check the date- yay me, I got it right!

Happy Thursday my lovelies!
Hope you are all doing FAB today.

I have to go wake up Cait and get ready for work. I am cleaning at MIL's and Cait is starting on her new Wizard of Oz quilt with Nana

See you back in a bit!

 

[hondachicc]

OoopS!! When I looked to see who was on line...I didn't see you Chris...BAWHAHAHAH!! I will move mine!

 

[hondachicc]

Hey there O' Family!!

I feel like I haven't even been to bed...I didn't get in the bed until 2 am and back up at 6...grrrr...yeah...it's a little weak!

I have more errands for today...actually it's the errands I did not get done after Jesse had his little mishap yesterday. Traci was here with them all, and she called and I came home.....Traci said he never cried about it..but Cameran cried when it happened, he cried when I got here, and when he went home and was telling his Mommy he cried...he is so tenderhearted. Jesse didn't fuss about anything until they held him down to put the staples in!!

Anyway....I will rant a minute now...my CRAZY @#%* SIL....she has called everyone and cancelled my Brother's party! this woman is a freaking lunatic! She has my Mom all to pieces! I plan on calling my brother Friday evening. I just can't stand to see my Mom so upset! Traci can't either, she is very close with her MawMaw...she called my SIL and let her have it! I was glad she did, but then again not...it upset my Mom even more, because she doesn't want to upset my brother....I will leave it at that and talk more after I figure it all out!

I hope you all have a great day!!

 

[hondachicc]

LindaP...ooohh I can't wait to see your garden pics too! Who in the world does all that yard work for you when you go back to school??!!

NeeNee...YAY for scrapping....can't wait to see what you did!! I hope you talked to the Dr finally! Let us know what they tell you!! and that nap sounds good for me today!!

Hi MERKEE!! Good to see you! and sounds like your little Ginger is a stinker!! and yes...I know "me" time is important...but it's one of my issues!!

CLARA!!!!!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! Your haircut is FABULOUS!! and ITA about others parenting choices!! I am old enough now I know that it's not necessarily wrong it I don't agree with it...but when it's your own child...it's hard!!

Chris....LOL..I moved my post to here...but have no idea how to delete the thread I started!!

Hey to everyone else who pops in....and LindaS...You know I sooo have to scrap Jesse's mishap!! actually I did one last night that I put in Sue's Today Challenge!!...but I need to take some photos myself and do another to go with it!!

 

[jsudesh]

Hi to all ! Its time for me to leave from office so bye bye ! will see you tomorrow !

 

[snappy2003]

HelloooO and good morning everyone! I'm almost back to 'normal' LOL. DH finally realized the error of his ways and although it will be hard to forget what all happened I almost forgive him haha. To make it up to me he ordered a Bamboo Craft for me last night eeeeeek I have been wanting one for a while since my old tablet died...it should be here Monday same day as the satellite internet. Monday night will be a fun one for me!!!

On a bad note, Davy is sick again, sneezing and his mucus is white sooo need antibiotics again. Other than that and me being tired from no sleep night before all is fair here .

LindaW-poooor little Jesse!!! Glad it wasn't more serious but still OUCH!

Sandra-dang it anyway, what's with the injuries?! Guess cause it's summertime? Hope she isn't too sore, poor thing!

Chris-don't work too hard! Can't wait to see Cait's quilt when it's done . How's her story coming BTW, haven't heard lately.

Sudesh-good morning! Have a great day .

Clara-loooove your new do! You look so chic .

Everyone-I'll be back later this evening! Have a lovely day. ((((hugs))))

 

[faerywings]

Got a few minutes here while I eat some b-fat- whole wheat bagel with Smart balance "butter." that's not too bad right?

So what was up with all of the kid-o's yesterday? So many bumps and bruises and stitches and staples.
oh you poor things- hope all of the kids are better today. And Vit e oil and sesame oil are great for healing and scars. Once the stitches/staples are out , you can just poke a Vit E capsule or use sesame oil from the grocery store and put it righ ton the scars. Lavender and rosemary essential oils are also very good at healing and cell renewal. One drop of either in a tsp of olive oil/sesame oil and that will do the trick.

Linda W- thanks for understanding the medical nightmares- it is just insane, makes me for a very cranky faery when I can't sleep b/c of it! LOL
How did your to-do lists go? I can relate to the "Mom can do it Syndrome." Even w/ Gary home more than I am, the kids still come to me for just about everything. I love helping people, but some days... it gets overwhelming.

Sandra- Hope you got some good sleep last night. and I hope that Piper heals up real fast!

Linda P- *waiting for those pic's!* LOL Good luck with your CT's!

NeeNee- did you get all of those Lo's done?I got one done and I was thrilled hhahaha!

Merkee- sounds like Ginger and Dawn's bunny Davy have been reading from the same playbook! I am so glad that you liked the LO I did with your Alpha Templates-

Clara--- woo hoo girl!! Love the new hair and avi!!!!!
So sorry to hear about Ethan's phone..... and ITA on other parents. I am so particluar in my own ways, it is hard to let go, ya know?

Anyway, better run, it is going to take me a while to get the car packed, beweenthe laundry I bring to MIL's and all of Cait's sewing stuff.


ToT! To scrap and leave love and get to my posting goal!

ROFL!!!!!!!!

 

[LindaPete]

unfortunately, I still do the yard work once school starts back up. That, coincidentally, is the time when all the tomatoes are ripe and ready for canning - which I do also!

 

[LindaPete]

I succeeded in finding my camera charging dock at school. They are cleaning my room so EVERYTHING is out in the hallway - I have A LOT of stuff! I had to dig a little bit but found it. Camera is charging!
I mowed yesterday afternoon and fixed one of my sprinkler heads so I could get a little water on that part of the garden. Mr. Wonderful came home and finished wiring one of the upstairs bedrooms. I'll hang insulation in there today and this afternoon we'll hang sheetrock! He's definitely got the itch to finish the house - YAY! but he goes like a mad man. He can survive on less sleep than I can so working till midnight is nothing for him, then up and off to work at 5 or 6 in the morning. My butt is dragging!
Hope you all have wonderful days! Injury free too!

 

[clarabear]

Good morning!!

Thursday is always a good day, because tomorrow is Friday. Whoohoo!! Last night Derek took Addie crabbing and I guess she loved it. I love crabbing but hate the crabs we get down here. I don't know why Derek brings them home. They are not that yummy, but we'll eat them anyway. I hate the idea of them going to waste. I am such a crab snob. I know what I like and the best times to eat it. Summer is not on of those times. The crab just isn't as good in the warmer water. December is the very best, but crabbing season is in the summer. At least I don't have to clean the things. I can't eat it if I clean it. Just too disgusting for me. Their gills are just gross. Blah!!

Tonight I have to do some work for the garage sale we are having. I have to go through the guest room. We have a ton of stuff stored in there that I have to pull out and go through. Not a lot of fun, but necessary. I am so sleepy today. I was working on my BOTCT LO last night and started too late and so was up too late. So, we'll see how motivated I actually am tonight.

I have a bit of scrapping to do today. One of my designers I create for has 3 kits out this week. They are awesome kits though and I can't wait to play with them. I really need to get motivated. So, a thought to ponder with you guys. This is something that bugs me. Most designers want you to post to 3 sites but some of the sites don't allow you to post unless you are using the products from their designers. I understand the whole thing but it stinks when you use a couple of designers at multiple sites and can't post at just those sites. I have to get creative sometimes. I love that it isn't an issue here but I've had LOs deleted from other sites because they didn't have products from that site, that time. Have I mentioned how much I love the O lately?? Although most of my LOs are in fact by O designers, not all of them are and I am able to have my entire gallery here. I LOVE that. I don't like DST being my main gallery because I don't participate in the forums. There's something to be said for seeing your friends' praising your pages, ya know??

So, anyway...

LindaW - that really stinks about your brother's party. Can't you guys throw it anyway? I would be angry too. My future SIL (I cannot stand her) wants to marry my BIL (dh's bro) in Jamaica with only the parents there. For one...dh's parents can't really afford it, and second how crappy for her to decide that the brother's can't come. I think she just doesn't want anyone to speak up when they ask if there are any objections to the marriage. Why can't family marry people we like? lol!! I hope it all gets figured out and doesn't create too much havoc. Poor Jesse. How many staples did he need? Poor kid. That is so sweet that Cameran was so sad about Jesse. Addie beat up the little boy that Ethan was playing with when he broke his arm. It wasn't Cristian's fault. It was totally Ethan's but Addie went up and hit him anyway several times. It was really funny. I just love how sweet kids can be over that stuff, although I'd rather not get to see that side of them since it means another kid is hurt.

Chris - I hope Cait has fun working on her quilt today. Don't work too hard. I love that I know somebody who knows all sorts of healing remedies. It is amazing how many things the earth provides to make us well that doesn't require a prescription. So cool.

Hi Sudesh!! I hope you had a great evening.

Dawn - I am glad that you and your hubby worked things out. I hope the lingering feelings go away soon. At least you will be making out with a new tablet? Not that it was worth the huge fight but you know what I mean. I hope Davy starts feeling better. Poor sickly litle girl.

LindaP - I can't wait to see those pics. you are so good to us going through all of that to take some pics. When do you go back to school? Hopefully not too soon. Good luck on your call. I wish I wasn't so busy with the teams I'm already on. I would love to help out with that. I am so excited for you that you were able to get your designing up and running. Too cool.

Well, I'd better go. I have a bit of a headache...I think from not enough sleep. I need coffee. I have cut myself off and I am not enjoying that so much. Blah!!

 

[wombat146]

Good evening girls! Its Friday morning for me downunder so its a GREAT day!! Roll on weekend!! Nothing planned just scrapping and some housework and most probably some packing as I am away for a few days next week with work. Our team is having a get together down at out corporate office's location, Port Macquarie, its a seaside location and really quite a pretty place. We will be inside most of the time but its nice when you come out afterwards, there is a lovely walk out along the beach which is really nice, great way of clearing the cobwebs!!

Chris, hope you didn't overdo it with the cleaning today and how did Cait go with her quilt? I have several quilts in various stages waiting to be finished! Maybe! One day! ! maybe if my computer dies on me someday!!!

Sudesh, did you have a nice evening? Do anything exciting? I've seen some wonderful LO's in the gallery of yours, the one of you in orange and having fun is just stunning!!

Dawn, so GLAD to hear from you! I have been thinking of you and hoping that things were getting better with your DH. Its horrible when you fight isn't it! We havn't had a fight for ages (touch wood ) but its a horrible feeling when it happens! woohooo on the tablet! I have one which,now that I am used to it I couldn't be without!! and poor little Davey diddums! hope s-he is feeling better soon!!! Like I said in another thread, we have satellite internet which I am not totally happy with, but we can't get anything else where we live so we have to put up with it!! Hope it works out for you!!!

LindaP, whew! girl! you make me so tired!!! and make me realize just how lazy I have become!! ! AND canning tomatoes!! really looking forward to seeing the photos!!

LindaW, don't you just hate family politics sometimes!!! I would go ahead and have one for your brother anyway!! and poor Jesse! I saw the LO, he looked so adorable! hope it gets better soon. and ditto what Chris said about oils, I am always using Rosemary oils for aches and pains and lavender for when I can't get to sleep.......I wouldn't use the Rosemary on an open wound though, might be a bit stingy!! and isn't that sweet of Cameran!

Clara: WOW!! sweetie! LOVE your new avi! and love your hair and the colour!! very pretty!! and totally agree with what you were saying about the posting to different galleries for designers etc! I haven't had any deleted YET but no doubt it going to happen. I do post at DST even though I don't join in the forum there but my complete gallery is here, and the comments over at DST can get to be a bit 'boring', I still think that at the O everyone gets such nice and DIFFERENT comments on their LO's, its really great!!

Sandra, hope Piper is feeling better!! and so glad to hear that the job is going along ok!

and to anyone else that may drop in before you head off to bed, hope you have a great night and have a wonderful Friday tomorrow!!! nighty night

Hi ladies I just wanted to pop in and say a quick hello...it's been a while! We just returned back from camping for 14 days! We had so much fun and the boys loved it. Such a good age this year. We are running around getting everything unpacked and trying to get things back to "normal". Then I have to get back in the groove since I've been unplugged for so long. It's good to take a break though. I look forward to catching up with you all ((hugs))

 

[wombat146]

Welcome back Dawn!! lol! I was only thinking of you the other day and wondering how the camping trip was going! Maybe we might expect a natural/outdoors type of kit for your next one?? hmmmm??

When I was a kid I would go camping with my friend and her family. We would travel down to the south coast of New South Wales (downunder).......that was a LONG time ago, we used to have canvas tents back then and the only 'shower' the kids got was a dip in the ocean, but we were virtually in water for the entire day so that was not a problem!! lol! I remember we used to get game and sneak out under the canvas flap at night and we would run down to the beach and just run under the moon and stars!! then we would get so scared telling each scary stories that we would hightail it back to the safety of our camp beds!! It was a fairly deserted place where we went and it was really a very 'safe' for kids........I think the world was such a nicer place too! OK, rambled enough, glad you're back and hope to see some photos/layouts soon Dawn!!

 

[snappy2003]

Good evening my O-so-awesome friends .

How was everyone's day? Mine was loooong LOL. Thursdays are kind of sucky at work because my doctor is off so no patients unless I get pulled to work with someone else. But, I am terribly excited that tomorrow is TGIF!

This morning I thought little Davy was getting sick, but this evening he seems fine....so I'm hoping it was just a little allergy attack, I was stirring up quite a lot of dust last night cleaning my room. It's been such a mess in here since I got Davy, I've been piling stuff on my crafting tables and any surface out of Davy's reach LOL. I couldn't stand the thought of the internet guy coming in here and seeing how bad it was so I got motivated to clean some. It was awesome cause I found some CDs that had bunches of my photos on them that I thought I had lost, now I have more scrappin' material!!!!!!!

I can't wait until next Friday, that is when I get paid again...there are about 100 scrapping kits on my wishlists at various sites LOL, a ton here at the O I want but haven't been able to get yet. Hopefully, my finances will start looking up again after this month is over and done, I got a big medical bill out of the way finally, shew .

soooo, that's enough rambling 'bout me...off for some personals .

I gotta get out of my scrapping lull again, just haven't been motivated this week, hopefully this weekend I can hit it hard .

Hi Dawn! So good to see you back posting! I'm happy you had a great time camping! Can't wait to see some photos from your adventures. Isn't the unpacking and getting settled back in the worst part of going away...that and the laundry, LOL.

(((Hugs)))

Hi Ona . You are such a sweetie! What do you not like about satellite internet? Like you we don't have much to choose from around here, just the yucky DSL from the phone company which is off more than on lately or dialup. We don't have cable on our road and most likely never will since everyone has satellite dishes. I just love living in the middle of nowhere haha.
I hope you have a great day!!!!! (((hugs)))

Hey Clara! I soooo KWYM. I post all my LOs here, MSA, and DST now, and isn't DSA an open gallery as well, I think it is? The O is my #1 gallery, that's for sure.
I just loooooove my O-home . And in case I forgot to tell you...your new do ROCKS! (((hugs))) girlfriend

LOL, LindaP! My butt is dragging just reading your post, you work way too hard LOL. Awesome that you're getting so far on the house! Get some rest tonight, I think you've earned a good night's sleep .

 

[snappy2003]

Anyway....I will rant a minute now...my CRAZY @#%* SIL....she has called everyone and cancelled my Brother's party! this woman is a freaking lunatic! She has my Mom all to pieces! I plan on calling my brother Friday evening. I just can't stand to see my Mom so upset! Traci can't either, she is very close with her MawMaw...she called my SIL and let her have it! I was glad she did, but then again not...it upset my Mom even more, because she doesn't want to upset my brother....I will leave it at that and talk more after I figure it all out!

I hope you all have a great day!!

What the heck?! What'd she go and do that for?! I'm sorry maybe you can all throw him a party yourself? Is this the same SIL that took over DDs wedding plans? She sounds like a real *itch! (((((hugs))))) I hope things work out ok with a minimum of upset for everyone.

 

[snappy2003]

ToT! To scrap and leave love and get to my posting goal!

You can do it!!! You're getting closer and closer...so am I . Still have plenty of time to do it!

 

[neetdesigner]

Hi O girlies! I am just poppin in for a minute b4 bed.My arm and my legs are killing me tonight. I shouldn't even be on the puter I know but, can't help myself sometimes.

I did get a call from the doctor and my initial tests were all normall so we are sticking with the fibromyalgia diagnosis until we run a few more tests. I will go in to see him next week so he can see how I am doing and add in a few meds to help me with the pain. Today was another frustrating day.....

I read all of your personals. I just don't have the time or energy to respond tonight. I will be back on in the morning though and catch up with all of you.

Hope you had a great day today and Friday starts into a happy, happening weekend for you!

Mwah!
NeeNee
