AF - lol! Maybe it's different because we have girls... We are an hour and a half away and dh still likes us to call every morning and night to fill him in on all we did. Don't know what he'll do the first time we go away for a week on a church youth trip or something.

dd4 slept through my dmom, ddad and dsis all leaving. She was tired. Got a little upset when she woke up and everyone was gone. Then a little more upset whenshe realized we are going home this morning.

Emily has woken up her normal cheerful self. She is just a cooing and a babbling in her bouncer. Quite a bit to say and you can't help but smile.

Ok need to get things packed up. Off I go - Probably check in once we are home and settled. I AM ACTUALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO DOING LAUNDRY!!!

my nathan is the type that would not want to talk about what he was doing, i have to wait for it to come out gradually or have others tell me. it doesn't bother me as no news is good news? with his problems, the mere fact they aren't SENDING him home is enough

A great BIG AMEN to that Coming from a mom who has had her share of school troubles with her three sons IKWYM

[Pandora]

Atlanticflyer and Grammybug, My old microwave that lasted forever (LOL) was repaired twice so I know they can be repaired. This last time that it died though it was so old I did not want to bother to see if it could be fixed. I ended up buying the same brand Panasonic. So far we are very happy with it.

[Pandora]

Where ever you are I HOPE you're smiling

I wish the board clock could be fixed.

[atlanticflyer]

me too pandi! my first microwave was a kenmore, alsted almost 15 years, this one was a second hand one given to us 5 years ago and still going strong

mom hope you can get right home and at that laundrey lol!

runners praying for safe travels

waving agood morning to CM, mitzy and grammy

at work, soon lunch time

[Austin_Granny]

Good Thursday morning, SHE ville. It is still morning here.

I'm very late checking in this morning. Still trying to get rid of a sinus headache plus yesterday I ended up with a rare tension headache after BratBoy threw one of his temper fits. Why? I told him I'd go in with him to see the adviser at the college (so he hopefully wouldn't overload himself or find himself at 2 different campuses on the same day) but I was not going to go with him to the financial aid office. That set it off ..... and then there was the issue of if he couldn't get all his car problems taken care of he'd need all his classes at the CAMPUS SERVED BY THE BUS (free to students) THAT STOPS A BLOCK UP THE STREET! He totally blew up at the idea he might have to take a city bus with the common folk.

I have enough stress over my teaching that I'm being forced to computerized. You know what else? I am too darned old to cope with a hostile teenager.

[momnkids9781]

welp lost my whole post ...Pffffft

Agranny - You need she SHE 2x4!!

AF- Lol was prepped before my shower and started after.....

Well i need to get out the meat for sphaghetti tonight and get the house cleaned up and bags unpacked. TTFN

afternoon pandi

mom so sweet!

hope the headache goes away agranny

grrrr got a rock on the windshield on the way home, made an appointment for a couple weeks, 300 bucks i don't have

[Pandora]

Sorry about the windshield Atlanticflyer. They have to replace those free here.

[Grammybug]

Home from payroll. Going to a Pampered Chef party after dinner to support a friend. Microwave can be repaired, needs a new magnatron -- doesn't that sound like a made-up word! It has to be ordered, be here in 5-7 working days.

[Austin_Granny]

Good evening.

Grammy, my cousin's daughter, the one that just had the twins, sells Pampered Chef in the Tampa area.

[atlanticflyer]

have fun grammy! sounds like a name from star wars!

pandi is that common? never heard of them having to repair for free? who pays for it then?

back from the field, handed out soccer pics, visited with the treasurer

[momnkids9781]

Have things settled down a bit without having to transfer nathan around too AF?

Pandi - It's good now. The problem was an end pipe that had been buried when they put a resvoir pond behind us in a new sub division and forgotten about. It had been about 3-5 years since the last time it had been flushed out and finally got to the point that each time pressure eased off the "ick" water came back far enough to go into our pipes. FYI - Those pipes are SUPPOSED to be flushed at AT LEAST once a quarter

They also put some extra chlorine in our water to really help clean the pipes out and get them cleaned out better. It is SO much better!! Much happier.

Girls are in bed. DD4 actually came home and put herself down for a nap for like 2 hours and then I went in and woke her up. Emily fussed to go down but once I laid her down she was out.

Alrighty! Everyone have a good night!

[atlanticflyer]

mom it has been such a great week, i can go into work early, not rush home, no going to town every evening, lots of leftovers, less alundrey, ahhhhh

Withholding the 2x4 since he found the little orange sliver of something and unjammed my printer.

Also he carried in a big load of groceries for me.


I didn't PLAN on going to the store. I started out to get a banana split at Sonic but .... I virtuously figured I really should go to the grocery and get some veggies to keep up my 4-5 servings/day .... and as long as I was in the store and had a partial list with me ... well, I ended up with $138 of groceries.

I settled on some Skinny Cow truffles of which I've had 2.

[Grammybug]

Home from the Pampered Chef party and a trip to the grocery -- not connected at all. Needed primarily bread and milk, and to rethink a bit due to the broken microwave. DS17 is on a rearranging kick as he has a friend coming to visit next week. He really want to clear out the garage and set up the pool table. It "might" happen.

[Austin_Granny]

Headed off to early reading and bed ..... Good night, dear SHE friends.
