CHEERY O
To Kat and Nick- Happy Birthday Little Man, and lots of luck too you- we are all thinking of you to have a very safe and successful surgery and recovery!

And to the O-Fam- Happy Wednesday (Thurs for Ona!). Another busy day for me today, but if I am a good girl and get my chores done :) I am going to try to get out for some gardening later this afternoon.

Linda- oh yuck, you had a rough couple of days. I am glad you are feeling somewhat better and I hope that your cheery pink laptop will keep you going.
Ugh about your dh and the sandwich. I am sure I have done stuff like that in the past. I know my kids used to tell me I packed the wrong sandwiches int heir lunchboxes *all* the time and would have to go to each other's classrooms to switch.
(Can I just add in how jealous I am of your dental insurance!!)

Good Morning Joslyn:) You are so blessed to have such an easy baby! Hope that you had an awesome movie/dinner!

Sandra- still sore?? I hope you feel better asap! If you have time, you can try a soak in epsom salts. They are really good for detoxing the muscles.

Sara- my teeth feel a bit better today, thanks! I wish I didn't need them, esp since I went through braces as a teen. But my bite got so screwed up I was chipping my front teeth and I had TMJ. So this was the only option. ugh.
I love random facts too! Keep 'em coming!

Clara- thank goodness you are feeling better! You sounded so exhausted and run down. Sorry to hear about dh and job issues. My dh can be the same way- only one vision and he sticks to that until the end. I hope that he can work something out. And IKWYM- after all these years together, I know what to sweat over and what not too. Sometimes it is easier to just ignore it until it blows over.

Joslyn, you are my grocery shopping hero!

Sally- lots of hugs and prayers for you and emma. Hope that she feels better.

Kat ((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))

Hi Dawn!!

And that is all she wrote (for now...)

:D
 
Happy Wednesday to my favoritest peeps in the whole wide world!

First off gotta tell you, Davy is a wild little boy this morning! I think someone spiked his rabbit pellets LOL. He is racing all over the room full speed, sometimes running into the wall because he can't make the turn LOL.

I feel sooO behind with everything and everyone! So I got up a little early this morning to try and catch up :). Let's see.......

Chris-Dang girl, your Tuesday/Monday?? was as busy as my whole week combined as far as errands and housework, LOL. I hope your braces don't bother you too much. I had the old-fashioned metal kind that were brackets around the whole tooth when I was young. Wore them for several yrs and then a metal retainer. When John and I got together something happened to the retainer and I didn't ever tell my parents so I didn't finish my treatment and one of my front teeth has gotten out of line again, overlapping the other one and I am so self-conscious about it. I want to get something done about it....I think you have just inspired me! Thanks, Chris :). And yes, let's do the chat!!!!! I'm game this Friday if that's ok with everyone else or just whenever!

Oh, and Chris, I don't think you want me to explain the 13-yr-old boy in the shower thing here, trust me. I had one of those boys myself ;).

Linda-(((hugs))) sounds like you had a nasty Monday, I hope your Tuesday was better! Woohoo on the new laptop!!! Have a Wonderful Wednesday!

Kat-hope Nick has a Happy Birthday and feels better! Hope you do as well (((hugs))).

Jos-wow, 3 kids to the store, I can't even imagine. Looking back I don't know how I managed the 2 I had, I wouldn't even attempt that now, LOL.

Sandra-I hope you are feeling better! I am LOL at Will rolling a car up in Piper's hair, I know it's not funny but it is funny LOL....did you get a photo?!

Sara-oh my....a time limit for the puter....eeek, no way I could do that LOL. Which is why I get nothing done around here, I have no willpower!

Clara-I hope you are feeling better. I'm sure your DH will find a job soon, the right one just hasn't came along yet.

Jos-woohoo, first shopping trip down!

Sally-(((hugs))) I hope little Emma feels better today, I understand IBS, ugh. I hope time flies for you and YMG is back in no time :).

Kat-(((hugs)))when you feel like you are freaking out just pop on in and we'll freak out right along with you ;). Everything will be fine, I'll be praying for you and Nick that all will go smoothly, it'll be over before you know it :).

Love you all and talk to you later!
 
Good Morning :p

Hope this Hump day finds everyone doing wonderful!! I am feeling much better today...so I have some house cleaning to do....three days behind....but priority....PLAY with my new laptop! The bad part about a new computer is putting all the programs on it.... Plenty of time though, I have nothing else calling for my time today.

I have decided to take on another baby to babysit...when I say another, I will be keeping my DD's baby after she goes back to work (her baby is due 9/9/09)...and my DD called me the other day and said her friend is having a baby in Jan, and wanted to know if I wanted to keep another. I have never kept any besides my own grandchildren, so I think I am going to give it a whirl....I told my DH if I like keeping other kids, then he can retire, and we can open a daycare...he seemed a little bit receptive to the idea. If I go get my license, the state will do A LOT to help us get going. It's a thought. The only thing is it will cut out any of our "out of the blue" day trips, like we do now when he is on vaca....(he gets 8 weeks a year...almost 34 years on the job). If I just keep DD's baby, we can take her with us when we want to go. But the $$$ would be nice!! We sacrifice A LOT where $$$ is concerned with me not working.

Hi Chris.....yep...we have about the best Orthodontic Ins ever....with all 5 girls, the ortho. said the same thing.."Excellent Insurance"...actually all of our insurance is really really good...this is one reason why DH need not retire!!! and I am glad to hear I am not the only one making the Lunch time boo boo!! ...DH said he didn't have time to go get anything...he just ate the "bread sandwich"...he is laughing about it now.

Hi Dawn....Your little Davy sounds like a hoot! If I didn't have so many grandkids in and out of here, I would have to get me a little pet...So glad you feel better too! and yes...I am there for the chat too!!

Hi to everyone else who pops in too! Have a happy Wednesday!!
 
good morning! a late posting for me... had to finish cleaning up and sweeping/mopping the kitchen and powder room floors, as well as vacuuming the family room and playroom. My mom and sister will be here in just a little bit, and then Sonya,one of the nurses that took care of Daddy, is coming by to visit... then when Sonya leaves, I have to get ready for a job interview...

yes, I said a job interview... I really want to continue being a SAHM until Matthew goes to school, but the new health insurance is just really putting a hurt on our pockets... and while most of my pay will go to daycare until school starts back, we will be getting something from it and then more when school starts back... so that's my big news!

Chris - my thigh/hip is still sore, but I'm doing better... just a huge bruise on my arm...

Dawn - yes it really was rolled up in her hair... and no she's was screaming and crying so hard a picture never even occurred to me lol

hi LindaW

have a great day everyone... I'll pop back in when I get back from my interview!
 
Good morning Ladies!!

My head is finally clearing out. Yay!! Maybe I can wear sunglasses today because I want to and not because I have too. I can't even imagine what you ladies that get migraines have to deal with. If I feel only a fraction of that with my sinus issues...wow!! But I am feeling 100 times better than before.

So, Ethan is now at the stage in school where we have to start really looking for lice. Ewwwww!! The thought of bugs running around in our hair...It is just gross but what can you do?? So, I am wondering what tricks you guys have to help get rid of lice. I know that putting goo in your hair helps keep you from getting them. And my mom told me that she would use heat to get rid of it when we were little. Lots and lots of time with the hair dryer. So...fill me in. I'm guessing it will be a bigger issue with Addie but Ethan has thick hair too. So, we'll see how it goes. Any tips ahead of time would be great. It still is creeping me out. Yuck!!

This lice conversation reminds me of a little funny from yesterday...a girl who works inmy office came in after lunch with some flowers she had picked off a tree or something. So, I was trying to smell them when she threw them at me accidentally because there was a bug. Then we noticed the bug was on me so I think I knocked it of and started jumping up and down trying to get it off and then stomp on it even though I had no idea where it went. Then I grabbed the flowers and started hitting her with them for getting a bug on me. We ended up with flower petals all over the floor. It was quite amusing.

Well, today is Wednesday the 10th which means i will be jumping out of aplane in 10 days. I am really freaking out about it. I know it will be awesome but I am going to be throwing myself out of a perfectly good airplane from several miles above ground. Do I really love my husband that much?? I'm debating.

Chris - I hope you get to go out and do some gardening. I really wish I loved gardening. I love gardens, as long as someone else plants them.

Dawn - That sounds so funny. I am imagining Davey running into a wall because he runs too fast. The image is cracking me up. If everyone is game I will blend up my margarita and try and show up on Friday for a chat.

Linda - You are a brave woman or at least a very patient one to consider a home daycare. I could never handle it. I don't like a lot of kids and I would go crazy. Have fun with your laptop. What did you get anyway??

Have a great day!!!
 
Sandra - I am sorry that you have to look for a job. I hope it works out for you. Good luck on the interview. I'm sure they will love you.
 
Clara...I forgot...I was asked yesterday....I got a Dell Studio....We have always bought Dell...then only PC we have ever had that wasnt' was our very first one. I love Dell!! Funny story about the bug!!! and the lice issue...My 2 yo DGS got lice from a little boy that came to visit, and DD called the Dr after the OTC stuff didn't really work that well...they said Mayo....she covered his head with it, then wrapped it with a plastic bag, for about 3 or 4 hours and then washed three or four times....lice were gone!!! I am glad you feel better today...Wed seems to really be a hump (over the hump) day for everyone!! YAY! and I am standing on pins and needles for you on that jump!! YIKES!!!!!!

Sandra....I hope your job interview goes well!!! I know it is hard to leave your little guy....I wanted to be at home with my girls when they were little but is just was not possible....just consider that when they hit HS you may need to be with them then, my DD did....I really think they need you more then....anyway....GOOOOOOOOD LUCK!!!!!
 
Hey chicks. :) Love to everyone.

Kat - I'm thinking of you and Nick today. Praying for an easy, successful surgery.
 
Hi all, had a pretty laid back day even though I went to work. My para handled all the check out and I got to check in the first half of our book order for the fall. It's like Christmas in June. =) Wandered around Nebraska Furniture Mart and of course was drawn to the computer area. I bought a little laptop cooling pad because mine gets so stinking hot. Hopefully it works well. Got a nice lunch from Panera and wandered home to find the box of Father's day presents (with my new Gorilla pod) sitting on the porch. yay! Got a few things done and the dh surprised my by coming home early. Now I'm catching up on puter time. =) Going to go out to dinner with my cousin tonight and that should be fun.

Chris - Did you get to garden? I wish I had a green thumb...but I kill everything I touch. Case in point, my friend's wedding was in October. I was taking the bouquet to get preserved. I tried to get the ivy that she wanted to save and grow out and give it to her mom...but no. No one wanted it. I told them it wasn't a good idea to give it to me. But they wouldn't listen. Most of it died. One sprig was in a tiny vase in my kitchen on the back of the counter next to the fridge. I did NOTHING with it. It must have had it's own little ecosystem going though because it stayed green and pretty until about a week and a half ago. I knew I'd be having lunch with her three days later, so I thought...I should water it and remember to give it to her. I moved the vase and put a little water in it. First time I touched it since October (yes...I clean my counters well...I know...). The frickin thing shriveled up and died in two days. Just my touch killed it. =) (That was a long story...)

Hi Dawn! I say go for it with the braces. It might be harsh, but when all is said and done, you will feel so confident (and dare I say...sexy), it will be worth it.

Linda - Wow---if you want to do that...go for it!!! I'm still undecided on if I want to work part time or not. =) But I'm so glad that you have a supportive husband!

Sandra - Good luck with the interview. I hope it all works out for you. You never know, maybe this will open another door to something you never expected.

Clara - glad you are feeling better. I hate lice. Working at a school, you never want to pick up the hats you find in the hallway, etc. =)

Tali - Hi honey!!! Love the new avi. Hope things are going o.k. for you.

Kat - How did Nick do? Hope all is well there!

Well...I'm off to either Facebook or pick up my child. DH said he was going to pick up the child, but he's still sitting on the couch on his laptop not at all ready to go. So........

Have a good evening chicas. (Or if you're reading this tomorrow morning...Chris....Have a good day!)
