Hi Crystal!!! Welcome!!! We love having new people join and stick around! I will love having you here as I am going to begin homeschooling my son this year and could use all the advice I can get. I'm Candy, 29 yo SAHM to Sean, who will be 5 in May and Kylie, who will be 3 in June. I also work full-time from home for a gyn/oncology practice. Some of the ladies here have had great success with Weight Watchers. I am on an eating plan for health reasons that is also helping to take the weight off.

Spryng, glad you had fun but a trip like that would have put me out of commission today. Sounds like you're doing fine though!!!! Glad you figured out the problem in ds's room. I had a similar problem in the bathroom but mine was caused by my ds's lousy aim at the toilet and the pressboard spacesaver we had in there had absorbed the yuckiness. So that is why I took it out and replace it with a metal one that has 4 little legs and it can be lifted and wiped under. I have also banned ds from standing while pottying since he has been making such a mess. Hope this will do the trick. Funny thing is, he has been potty trained since he was 2.5 yo and he is just now making the mess at almost 5. Ugh!!! Anyways, hope you get all your chores done.

Same for you Andrea! I know it kinda stinks having to do work when your DH is home since he is gone so much but at least you guys are getting a little alone time!!! Hope you get everything done. You've really got me wanting to paint now too!!! We plan to give this place a fresh coat before we sell and I am thinking of trying a faux finish in my room. We'll see.

Geri, hope you get all your yard work done! That was what I was out doing until dh kicked me out. We found a poor little dead turtle that had gotten caught in the fence trying to cross from 1 yard to the next. :( I felt so bad for him. I really need to work on my flower beds but the gnats are so bad I just couldn't stand it. We will be going to out in-laws here shortly so I'm chillin' for a sec. We are going to play on the tractor on our property for a bit and then eat. I will need to have salad as my bad-influence husband took us to Mexican for lunch. Ok, maybe it wasn't all his fault but he knows I am easily influenced. Actually, he wanted chinese but the chinese buffet really doesn't have much selection for vegetarians so I chose Mexican which has great choices for veggies!!!

Penny, how's everyone doing there? Getting better? I felt so bad for you and your messes!!!

Hi Ricci, Ginny, Melinda and anyone else I'm missing. Hope you are all having a great weekend!!! TTYL!

I'm gonna start a new thread!!!
