I don't know why I had the crazy idea to get a ton of errands done today with the kids in tow. :crazy: We started out at BAM because DS's book arrived...finally! :woohoo: It was so funny last night because they called and asked for Mr. Graves. When they said that it was BAM I gave him the phone. They don't usually order books in kid's names but since I sent him up to the register with the title written down while I chased after DD last week...the girl got all of DS's info & now he has an account. Thinks that he is SO grown up now. :groom: Next stop was WM...my most dreaded stop in the world but when you need several different kinds of things and have two crazy kids with you you just bite the bullet & go for it. :scared1: Managed to find white sandals for DD as well as the rest of the stuff on my list. :thumbsup2 After rushing home & throwing it all in the fridge we went down the street to the doctor. DD woke up with a burning sensation & said that she had to go to the doctor. It doesn't look like anything is wrong but we are going to a specialist to make sure. This running to the bathroom every few minutes is a PIA. :yay: If we can stop that... :bounce:. So McD's for lunch...ended up with 2 Docs & 1 Flo!!! One more stop at my favorite grocery store for the rest of the stocking up items & the kids sat on the bench with their arms around each other. It's either knock down drag out fighting or lovie. :lovestruc :rotfl: So now we are home and everything is put away and the kids are playing somewhat quietly while I catch up.

I hope to go thru a couple more days of our last cruise pictures today. I am almost done with day 2 after last night. I have been playing the videos from the camera & doing a print screen save of some things that I didn't have a picture of. That, cropping, & red eye fixes are taking a little while along with numbering/captioning them. I plan to have them done & burned on a CD before you guys get here, John! :) It's too hot outside to try anything else today...only 94 UGH what will I do when we hit the 100s?!?!?!! :furious:
 
ARG!!! What's the point of referring a kid to a specialist with a problem if they wont be seen for a month?!?!?!?!? IDK if I will even keep the appointment.
 
Just stopping in to say hi, HI!

At work, lunch is over, have to get back.

Angie, that sucks, I lost out in the winter at 1 of 2 for a job I really wanted. I was offered my present job and it is going great.

Lisa, a month, it is stupid... by the time it come, the problem will be gone or worst really bad. At least it is quicker then up here, 3-6 months most times, but it is free for the most part.

Pj
Ps. Caroline, very funny, lol!
 
Angie Darlin' I'm sorry about the job. What could they have been thinking?

Tavia! Are you still with us? If you have time before the party day after tomorrow, and if you have one in your area JoAnn Etc has Tropical party supplies at 1/2 off. :flower3:

Lisa, It's been a couple of days, how's that point system working out? I'm anxious to know.

Norm the amazing diabetic cat has been crashing his numbers lately and is in the kitty hospital tonight. He is not responding to the insulin. Needless to say we are in for some tough decisions and long nights and days. Too bad he is the sweetest cat ever. :cat:
 

Well, the point system went out the window after one day. :( The novelty wore off too quickly.

Bummer, have you heard of a system called "123 magic"? :wizard:
 
Yes, my sister tried that one with her kids...didn't work. I use some of those ideas but this sib rivalry is out of control. :(

That's too bad. It worked great for DD and better for kids over here visiting. That suprised me because they had nothing to loose by misbehaving. They were just scared by the countdown.
 
Oh my! Now Lisa wants me to get my :donald: :donald: :donald: for meals too! No more plowing thru the cupboard at 7:00 pm trying to fish something out for dinner! Well, DrHug will be pleased!
 
I'll never get my :donald::donald::donald: and need more than :tinker: to be able to catch up & :beach:. Remember? I'm still working on the pictures from last cruise. :surfweb:

Sorry Patsy. Hope it all works out. Hugs to you guys.

I'm not usually on line this time of day, but DS has an ear infection. The DR claims he can't get it from water in the ear via swimming....but isn't it WAAAAAYYYYY too coincidental that we're swimming so much and suddenly his ear is hurting all the time? Anyone else have an opinion? I know - she went to school for years to tell me that one.

So - anyone else done any planning?

I'm feeling like I've GOT to get my house in order before I can organize a cruise. This pool, I mean - Water World - is really just going on and on and on.....the other day, DH had a company out here just to do the sound system. :sad2: Unbelieveable! We get the patio concrete finished this week. Next week the bar guys are building DH's bar - complete with one of those fancy grills AND - get this - his granite counter top bar. Huh?!!! Uh - my house could use some granite!!!!!!! Anyhow - that's why I keep complaining...the mess just isn't going away...the dirt and sand and stuff are being tracked into the house...and I can't say once and for all that all the stuff is put away and in its spot. Okay - thanks for letting me vent. I'm gonna go cuddle with DS for a while.
 
Let's see the projects underway at this point....
1/ edit & caption the pictures from 12/10/05 cruise before 12/9/06...really in a week! :surfweb:
2/ Get rid of every single thing that is somewhere in this house waiting to be used. (I opened some picture frames that have been in the closet since 1/05 after Christmas Target clearance and put the kid's school pictures in them yesterday! They were also hung up on the wall!!! MAJOR progress in clearing the dining room table. ;)) :woohoo:
3/ Start making progress on scrapbooks...doesn't really matter which one...just need to get my butt in gear & work on something. :teacher:
4/ Get shelving unit for stair closet to store & organize scrapbook stuff to make it easier to succeed with #3.
5/ Keep the kids from doing any major damage to each other while DH is gone. :crazy:
6/ Learn to pretend that I like to :stir: so that DH stops wondering what in the world we are going to have for lunch &/or dinner when he is home. :rolleyes1
 
FWIW, Karen, ITA with your logic about the ear infection & swimming. I always got swimmer's ear when it was time for lessons in the summer. I think that I went to the nurse every single session for GS camp because of swimming in the pool & the lake. Never had a problem other than those three months. :rolleyes:
 
Since the kids are getting along I thought that I would let you guys know that our meets thread is in 9th place with posts on the meets board. :) Angie leads the way with 835 posts!!!
 
I guess that I will be talking to myself tonight...

Penny - I just noticed that you changed your signature note about tablemates! :)

Can't wait to meet everyone! That is the hardest part for me now I think. There are some who we cruised with last year & it will be great to see them again...and we met Kristina in MD so DD can't wait to show her the latest dance steps :dance3: but it is going to be so cool to finally meet the rest of you. :hippie:
 
hey lisa, hanging around too!

Was watching BB7 all-star reveal! Most of the players I can't stand, but it should make for a great season. Some of these people are going to be so shocked when they don't get back on the show or when they find out that they are not the scene maker, lol.

Pj

ps. thought it was time to change the signature plea, it since I linked up way back in April.
