CHEERY O
Its Wednesday, are you happy today? I hope so!

My brain is a bit fuzzy and fried. Don't you hate when that happens? I feel like I look for any excuse to be lazy some days. But i have crud stuff to do today, like figure out what the heck I am supposed to be doing! LOL I guess its best to start with a plan and then move on. First task: Get pen and paper. #2... Start the to-do list..... #3, then what??? :dizzy:

Off to clean for the new client today and I have to set up a schedule with her. She wanted me in every week, but I just cannot physically do it. I am going to tell her that I can do every other week and if she finds someone to do every week, that its all good. I'd love (need!!) the extra money but I have got to learn that it can't come at the expense of my own health. Maybe if I say it often enough I can get it through my head!!!!
(Don't count on it...I am way too stubborn)

WWW:

I wish I could get my act together.
I want and need to get better organized and stop wasting time wandering aimlessly.
I want my ankle to stop hurting!

I want all of my O-Fam to have a fantabulous day!!!!!

:tea:
 
Chris, did i miss what happened with your ankle? hope it's feeling better soon, too. you sound a bit like me. (not so much all your energy...) but i do have a tendency to wander aimlessly when i don't have a list. i have a little list for today, so i'll probaby wander around aimlessly after the list is done with. just not feeling the fun this morning. :ohwell:

gotta go try to take a decent photo for the gallery of a card i made. i SOOO stink at photography.

everyone: Happy Wednesday!
 
Good morning ladies! Quick drive by here. I am sooo tired. There is a thunderstorm this morning and I would LOVE to climb back into bed. But, not today. Too much to do.

Hope you feel better today Chris. And Phylis, hope that your list gets checked off. Have a good day all.
 
Morning girlies...

It's very sunny and gorgeous here....as a matter of fact..the sun in shining through the window right on to my keyboard on my hands (feels good on arthritis too :)) and will about 81 today....YAY...kids outside!!!


Day three without Savannah.....I MISS HER!!!! :pout: but I already see a difference in Jaiden's behavior and that was part of what I was trying to accomplish. So this is a good thing (I will keep repeating this to myself :lalala:)


Well...yesterday Mike and I were like to old people nagging one another all crippled up...quite the sight....he messed his back up yesterday morning and I smashed my toe the night before....GUESS WHO WAS WAITING ON WHO THERE?? His back trumped my toe :suspicious:


I tried to find an appropriate photo to describe us....yeah....don't go looking into that...google gave some photos that left me speechless :shock: yet another reason I want to die before my 70's :hurt:


Well....The C-man is here today....Sharon called and said he was running 102 fever....so I am off to take him to the DR....


:hug: :kiss: to everyone!!!
 
What did you do to your ankle Chris?? come on over here...you can hang out with me and Mike...you will fit right in :rofl:

Well Phylis...if you stink at photography...I would never know...your pages are so freaking awesome!!!!


Hi Linda S :wave: if you go back to bed...can I go too?? I have been up since 2 am :shock:
 
Linda, a few years ago i fell down my entire basement flight of stairs had a torn rotator cuff and was scheduled for surgery. my husband had had the same surgery about a year before. he had a wife. he took off work, took it easy in his sling, went to PT a few times a week. i drove him around. i cancelled MY surgery, though, because i couldn't figure out how i was going to do that nasty, lengthy rehab and all the other stuff i need to do while hubby is at work. so. i cancelled the surgery. because i didn't have a WIFE to help ME!! (BTW. i am totally recovered. no surgery. a little rehab. nothing else. are women amazing or WHAT??)

men. honestly. :baby:
 
LOL...laughing at the ways of women and men!

Morning peeps

I'm sorry ladies. If I get hurt or whatever, I take care of myself and expect him to do the same for me. Of course, this IS my 2nd marriage and some of the emotional ground rules were set early on. 11 yrs down the road, the poor man gets little sympathy from me but I get a lot. I should feel bad but ...mostly, I don't. :evil2:

Phylis, your name came up in my random DYK comments in that thread.
cf :washing:

I spoke with an intuitive yesterday, a scheduled talk i.e., and I had a lot of insight into how my daughter feels and how our relationship is, and could have been. Things may never be good but I feel a lot better about them and felt a lot of the loss about what we could have had if she had been adopted at birth not at age 3. My head has known she'll prob never get over that period of neglect but my heart never really felt it. It f-in hurts.
But I did text her last night with a kind but still neutral message, and actually got a response!

Today I'm going to finish up some clean-up-and-out projects that get done so much more easily when himself is away. Friday a trip to the beach for the weekend which will be a little change. 3 hr drive? not bad at all.

cya later
 
Maureen, what's an "intuitive?" my daughter was adopted at around 15 months from a very GREAT and loving system in Korea. everything went beautifully for 25 years, then it all blew up in my face. none of what we're going through is adoption-related. it's a clash of opinion and personality and a testing of limits, which can happen between any kid and parent. at any point. not so sure that neglect at 3 can have a giant emotional effect throughout life. do you? i think, just like everyone else, as they get older they take the life they've led and interpret things as individuals and go from there, the way THEY have chosen. sometimes their interpretation is whacked, but sometimes no one is to blame for the state of their lives but themselves. i think sometimes parents believe that their influence is a lot greater than it actually IS, as kids get older. sometimes they just cast off and don't look back, for no reason that we can figure out.
 
Morning ladies... Sun is shining but it is a somber day for us!! Our BIL was rushed to hospital the other day and last night we rushed to Naniamo Hospital to say our goodbyes to him. Sooooo sick!! Cancer has spread to the brain and he really no longer knows anyone. (or does he??) who knows? His eyes opened when we said our goodbyes, so hopefully he somehow knew it was us!! Poor SIL seems to be holding up pretty good, but I am sure the next few days will take there toll on her! So now we wait for the dreaded phone call to say he has left us. Off to work and then back into the city to give support and make sure SIL gets her rest and eats something today. MIL is there but she and Linda have never really gotten along all that well. So I am sure SIL will need a break from her as well!!

Chris - At least you know not to push yourself too hard for this latest cleaning job!! I hope your ankle and your fuzzy head feel better soon!!

Nana Linda - LOL on your story but sorry that you are both so crippled up!! Wonder if there is a smiley for that?? LOL. Men are big babies aren't they!!

Maureen - Is an intuitive a psychic?? I haven't been to one for a long time, but on fellow told me years ago to keep my daughter in dance or else she would become gravely ill!! OMG 5ys later she did!! I should have listened to him! But hindsight you know!

Phylis - You are amazing!! Taking care of your hubby and with all that pain you must have been feeling, what man would do that for a woman?? We are wonderful creatures aren't we!!! :humble:

Well off to get breakfast and wait for the phone to ring :hurt: Have a good one!! :wave:
