Gosh Dana. I guess you think I'm so awful! I did not even mention about your fall! That must of been scary not to have feeling in your feet for that long. I'm sorry I didn't say anything. I'm truly :sorry: :( :cry: I am truly thankful that you did not break a bone or anything. :grouphug:
BTW, my weigh in was not a good one either. I did not gain, but didn't lose anything either. I seem to be wanting to stay at a certain mark and that just isn't good enough for me.
LOL
Donna

Donna I never thought anything about what you mentioned at all. It really was more stupidity on my behalf. I would have never stepped in that ditch on a dry day and I don't know why I did it with ice in it either. :shrug: It scared me briefly but not enough to not go back to the mail box later the same day. :lol: I hear your schools are on delay today so maybe you can get a breather with Elena at school for a while.

Dana, I just NEVER want anyone to feel that I don't care what happens to you whether it was stupidity on their part or not. Yes, Elena went to school two hours later but dumb me got her up like it was only one hour later. LOL Was I anxious???? LOL LOL :rofl: :lol: The roads were ok on my route taking them to school. The only bad place was at the entrance of where I live!! Isn't that a hoot of all places. LOL Ya'll (I'm southern ya know) my house is a disaster area! I have major blessing to do! I even postponed a luncheon I was having for a friend of mine today because I'm just too embarrased for her to see my house. :stress: LOL I will have her over again on Monday. Our snow days are being made up during the Spring Break and that is the week we were going to Mississippi for my mil's 80th birthday party. Oh well. :shrug:
Summer, thanks for asking I am feeling so much better! My arm has not been bothering me lately so maybe I won't have to have surgery after all! :crossed:
How is the weather and where is everybody?! I know Rosey is in Anchorage... but where is Kris? Sheree? Daphne? Mr. KEN??? :?: Well, I'll post more later. Gotta continue my disaster relief missions. ;)
Donna

We haven't "officially" been told of snow make up days here but they work 3 into the school calender every year. There has been a time or two where the days were just "forgiven". Right now as it stands, they were to get out feb 17th for their next time but I think that is one of the days. They shouldn't change spring break days like that. They should know that by now some people have decided to go somewhere.

I guess you were anxious to get her off this morning. Can't blame a mother for trying can you?? :lol: I think it's good to not sleep too long on days not at school to make the days you have to get up earlier not be so bad. Weekends not included though. :lol: I didn't let mine sleep the full 2 hours in yesterday either.

I emailed sheree, I will let you all know if I get a response. A lot of times when I go out "hunting" someone, they will post the same day. (fingers crossed!) Well I have to leave in about 30 minutes for the pickup line at school.

BTW I got some "sort of" bad news yesterday. The 5th grade is suppose to go to alabama and Chatanooga, TN march 31 through april 2nd. We make payments of $60 a month for 4 months for the kids to go and the chaperones will be same price. Well we have planned all along that I would go with Brett in order for him to go. (my mom would never have let me go to a trip this far away). Anyway, we've paid half of his so far and they sent home the notice yesterday asking for chaperones. They want the father of boys to go and mothers of girls. Each chaperone will have their child in the hotel room along with 2 other students (all same sex). Now there are a lot of problems with that. How many parents do you think will allow their kids to go out of state like that without them?? They will have far more parents to go than they think. I signed the form saying I would like to go but sent a note that if we can't have a room to ourselves even if I need to pay for it then brett can't go. I bet they got a lot of notes from mothers of boys because you know that I think more mothers don't work day shift and could have went. At any rate, I bet I will hear about it this afternoon!

Hey guys!

Busy week. You all need to stay dry and healthy! No more ice, falling or hurt elbows, ok? I'm going to go dress shopping this week. Wish me luck. Talk on Sunday.

Kris

:wave: it's cold here with lots of snow. i hope everyone is well.
:) mr ken

OK I made it! I hate the first pop up add that happens> The one from About Blank. It has frozen my computer so many times that I have to shut down my comp and start over! I ususlly say forget about it and stay off line.
I am so sorry for all that icky weather that ya all are having. We have had a lot of rain and flodding was a problem for us today. The creek was up to the bridge in the back yard and part of the street was flooded out. I will take the rain over the ice though.
I went to Target with my neighbor and got some great bargins. I bought some sleep shorts for .47 cents! I bought 2 pairs at that price. I also bought Robert a camping set thing. It has a compass and some other stuff in it. I think a light that goes on top of his head and a small knife and a few other things. It was $2.50 and had been $10.00. I know it is still a cheap set but he is a kid and losed everything! Oh and 3 sets of yard darts. 2 for the neighbors sons girlfriends kids and a set for Robert. They were .99 cents and had been I think $4.00.
Dana I can't belive that the school is doing that to you. I wonder how many Dads are willing or able to do that trip? What did the school have to say to you about it? I understand why they do that with all the sickos there are but it is crazy. DId you tax refund get deposited today or is that tomorrow?
Donna I am having to laugh at you my dear. 3 days and you were going crazy?? How do you think I did with 3 weeks of the kids with me!:lol: I agree with Dana that it is best to not let the kids get into sleeping extra late. I am still fighting Roberts sleep times after or Cali. trip and him going to bed at midnight and later!
Summer I am so sure that you are the last person we have to worry about offending anyone! I was amazed to see that you were worried. I am so thankful to have a friend as thoughtful and caring and sweet as you are! I really hope your weather improves soon.
Rosey how was the trip? DId you get to go to Walmart? How is the weather doing there?
Kris and Glen HELLO!!!!!!!
OK I know I am forgetting a lot of stuff but I can't remember what!
Daphne

I wasn't going crazy. I have been crazy for a long time... :rofl:

Hi everyone..im home and glad of it..the trip was icy roads and snow but we made it.. the dr said he needs an mri again and another test to see if he has nerve damage.. then we go back in 2 weeks to be re-evaluated and maybe sent to the surgeon..it was fun to see the grandkids.. and yes i shopped at wallmart..wanted to let you all know im home safe and will post more tomorrow after a good sleep..((((((hugs)))))))) rosey:wave:

Daphne, I'm glad I put a smile on your face but actually I never said I was going crazy with her home. I just said that I must of been anxious to get her to school since I got her up 1 hour earlier than she could of gotten up. With Elena the later she will sleep will do us all good. She has not been getting enough sleep for a few months now. I actually was more glad to see my sweet hubby going to work! LOL He had the friday before off and he returned back to work on Wednesday. Anyway, however you read it and laughed then it's good for me! LOL I always want to hear you all laugh. You sure do good with bargains... Wow! Those were great bargains at Target you found. I am not a shopper so I don't find them. I usually don't go out and shop until I have to. :dizzy: Sorry for the blank screen freezing you up too. I wonder what the deal is with that? Remember my putter problems? Turns out it was the provider and not my computer the whole time. It's a crazy company I tell you. The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. :no:
Rosey, welcome back sweetie! I had no doubt in my mind that you would visit your walmart! ;) And possibly more surgery? Poor Steve.... Poor Rosey! Anyway, glad you made it home safe and sound.
Summer.... WHERE ARE YOU!!!??? I know you are out there! :cb: :mag: :write: :cb: :?: :mag: :callme:
Dana, are you ready for the Super Bowl??? We are probably going to my Dad's to watch it on his big screen TV. Oh, BTW he and Ann are trying to get back together! :dancer: :cp: I sure hope that is true. She's a good stepmother.... just like Summer. ;) About that trip, it sure would of been nice if they had stated all the "rules" before hand don't ya think? I sure hope it can be worked out.
Kris, I can't keep the ice from coming... :shrug: The weather man was saying last night there is another chance of that stuff on this coming Monday! :censored:
Mr. Ken, How much snow have you gotten? I don't know any one hardly who isn't dealing with ice or snow. UGH! Good luck with your weigh in tomorrow. :lucky:
I'm encouraged by the news of my Dad and his wife. I sure hope that they can come to a agreement. My youngest sister is not happy that they are getting back together. My Dad told her too much I think. So of course naturally you would side with your Dad but she needs to let it go and let them work it out.
Gotta go now. Have a great day!

Where is Everyone?????? :p :o :stress: :yikes: :mag: :stars: :sumo: :blah: :rollpin: :callme: :write: :crazy: :dunno:

I just wanted to let you ALL know that my friend Buddy..Seems to be doing better..
I got a email today from him and he said that his CT Scan showed the following:
The big spot on his lung was gone and his Lymp-nodes were reduced in size and seem to be shrinking down in size..They also put him on some antibiotics for a severe stomac infection and after a few pills he said he was feeling much better...This was the reason along with the chemo he had lost 30 pounds..
I just wanted to Thank-You ALL from the bottom of my heart for all your prayers for my friend.. God is always listening and he heard all of us..
I know that he is not cured by no means but at least this is step in the right direction..He said the Dr wants him to get stronger and rested and then he will make a decision about futher treatment or what will happen..
I was so happy to hear this news..I wanted to share it with all of you.
Again God Bless Each of you for being such Wonderful Caring People
I am a better person for knowing all of you...
I Love You ALL... :love: :grouphug: :love: :wave:
