Nice to see Giggles posting again. Hope you continue to visit. How is the family doing?
MamaJ, so glad that your lab results were good. Hope all is well with you.
Pooky, Don is being "Blade" the vampire guy (Wesley Snipes). Darren wanted to be a half soccer player half baseball player (which I felt I could easily create), he then wanted to be a 3 headed dog monster (from some new cards they are collecting) and now he wants to be a skeleton. We shall see! DH is going to be empirer Palpidon from star wars. I will just be a ghoul dressed in navy, purple and gold robes.
Peachie, Tell the dh/sh that you already have a very important job!
Good Morning everyone!!! Jenny, Starbucks, yummy!!
Barb, sorry to hear about your Dad. Now is the time to just smother him with love.
peachie, he wants you to do what!!! husbands!!!!
jiff glad to hear the scale is going down again. My friend you are doing so well!! I'm so glad for you
sil, we can finally turn the AC off!! Do you think it's for good until next spring??? Don't we hope so! Sat at band practice last night covered with two blankets, one of the Dad's said to me, "you know it's probally 68 degrees." Hey, when you lose over 100 pounds of insulation it's a big change.
Janice, sorry to hear about your son's truck, but so glad it was recovered. Have you had a chance to see it it was damaged in any way?
Linda, never heard of that method of cleaning the wax out of your ears, sounds interesting. Enjoy your daughter!
Sherrie, boy do I remember the days of ear infections. That little Tommie is one tough customer, I think she gets it from her Mommy!!! Strong women, breed strong women!
To everyone else
I hope to get the results of the x-rays later today. The tech wanted to know how long ago I had the chest tubes, he told me he could see scar tissue, but he didn't say anything about the hiney x-ray. I'm so glad he could see the scar tissue in the lung area, cause that is the pain that sent me back to the hospital and started my 3 month odyssey. I needed to know it was scar tissue causing it and not a repeat of "other" things.
I have NOTHING on my plate today, nothing outside the house anyway! And it feels so good!!! I think a friend will come over and we will drink coffee all morning and talk about what we SHOULD be doing. Oh well!!!!
hey girls. so i'm all out of whack today. eating candy like there is no tomorrow. not really sure what that is all about to be honest. might have to go re read that phenomenal woman poem. actually, i may try to read that every day.
how are you all doing?
Back - dogs are fed and DH is turned on and started for the day. I think he is going to need a new battery soon!
Vent Alert! I'm angry with myself today! Weight is holding at 207 because of extras every day or evening! Gotta get a grip! At least I'm holding but have also been adding extras as I feel a bit sorry for myself. Calories DO count and low carb mixed with hi-carb "treats" does NOT work! WW keeps crossing my mind - but not for long. I know I'd join and end up going just for weigh-in and eventually not going if I gained! I know! I know! Grow up! I am going to try journalling again and will chose low GI carbs when I must have a carb!
Dondar, be sure to post pictures of the boys in their Hallowe'en getups - and of you and DH too! I am going to get out my fall/Halloween decorations today. I'm so far behind with stuff like that this year I should get out the Christmas stuff too!
Debkay, I hope the X-ray results are good for ya. I laughed over your blanket story - losing weight certainly does rob you of your insulation! Good thing you don't live here in the Great White North.
Peachie, is he nuts? Why would you want to do a dumb thing like that? We need you in here to teach us crafts.
Jiff, hang in there! You know you are a very strong woman and the situation will resolve istself with a little help from J&J, we hope.
Barb, thinking of you a lot this week. It's so nice you are finally online from work. Be sure to keep us posted.
Linda, now I am wondering what the heck IS inside my ears. Maybe I should get them candled. I do remember my Mother putting something in them to clear the wax - peroxide, maybe? It sure crackled and popped and I hated it. Another wonderful childhood memory - right up there with getting a Toni Home Permanent!
Have to take DH and his car in to the dealer this morning to get some crazy security check thing disengaged. It's driving us nuts because the motor won't start unless you go through some weird sequence of moves - like turning on the radio and swivelling the mirrors! This is a 2nd hand car and the previous owner must have been RCMP!
sigh....I'd write more but I have to run and get the little guy new pants. A new Kohl's opened up!
This might be the last post from me. I think they are going to come pick me up and haul me away because I get the "bad mommy award"
The little guy is so skinny I don't have any pants for him that don't fall off of him. Today I picked a pair that is a little snug but wouldn't fall off. So, we were rushing to get the bus and he had to poop and then poop again and I zipped up his jeans in a hurry and caught his little weenie. AND HE SAYS AS HE IS EXAMINING IT, "MOMMY, YOU ALWAYS HURT ME!"
soooooo....this is it, I'm a gonner. If they didn't believe that the bump on his head was a reaction to a mosquito bite, I have little hope for this.
love you all,
it's been fun
do you think I'll look fat in those horizontal stripes?
Boy prune you escaped quick!! Or have they already picked you up. Just called and hubby said you were gone already!!!
Aren't little boys just so much fun! Don't mean to make light of the little guys pain, but I had to laugh.
Okay, how many women did this when potty training their little boys? Jenny, peach. I had my little boys using tp after they went number 1, my hubby informed me, boys don't wipe, they shake.
Hi ladies
Just a short note to say "hello" and to thank you for the laughs this morning I haven't had a chance to catch-up on yesterdays posts yet (visiting with my son) but I'm headed there now.
Also, where is everybody that joined the Boot Camp? Come on ladies.

Oy!*&*%## I got a speeding ticket trying to make my 8am ultrasound! Grrr... My first one too. The cop gave me a break though, my ticket is on $50 but could have been $150 and 3 demerits on my license if he put down what I was really going.
I am in the midst of serious house cleaning--just 2 more weks till I have the board here and let's just say the house is a wreck. I'm going to ave to nail down dh to get the knobs on the kitchen cabinets and I'm going to have to finish painting the trim. Then there are the carpets that are crying for a good cleaning. That's at least a 3 day job right there.
Anyhoo, gotta run and I hope you all have a great day!
One of my favorite stories is of a friend who was so intent on making sure they used "proper" names for everything instead of nicknames (ie: weenie) until one day they were in a busy shopping mall and he was acting up and she reached over to pinch his leg and he hollered as loud as he could "mother you are hurting my penis!"" From then on it was nicknames for everything!!!
Yes, I'm on a quick .com break, I'll be back when I can stay a while.
Wednesday, Oct 9
husbands!!!!
but I always want to say hello to my girls.
