Thanks for that Sandy, I saw an update on the news

Cor, I'm really tired tonight, I think the treadmill got the better of me

 

[micheleluvsmickey]

Hey people i'm back from picking up the girls. it is pouring buckets i had to dump out some of the water out of the pond again..Yuck it smells ..but it is better than having it overflow into my basement again..

Yes jen where are you today?

Laurie done at school yet?

Sandy still working hard?

Mandy what are you doing with yourself tonight since paul is out for the evening?

 

[sarahsmom73]

Hi guys!

I have a 6 1/2 year old who wants my undivided attention today.. Mom can we play???....... Em is being very cooperative with the potty and will sit, but hasn't gone.. We'll just keep trying! ( she actually pooped in her diaper during her am nap so I knew that was out today...)

I am really dragging today. I think it is the rain! I'm not complaining! It is 54F here!!!! Let the snow melt baby!


That is something about MCO! I'm glad we aren't there.. Or maybe I am and would have to stay an extra day!

Hope you are all having a good one!

 

[V4dice]

Good afternoon!

I'm finally getting some time at the computer today. I was good and went and exercised this morning (have to lose the weight I gained last week) then I did errands and food shopping. Finally over to the school for some PTA stuff. Now I'm happily home for the evening!

Mandy...Great job using the treadmill Now you just need a TV in front of the treadmill to entertain you!

Laurie...Hope you got all your PTA stuff done and got some rest this afternoon!

Jen...Enjoy your time off! You deserve some time home to relax and have fun with the kids after all you have been through the last few weeks!

Danielle...Very interesting story about MCO!

Michele...I'm glad you are feeling better! Do you have to work tonight?

Hi Sandy

Well done on getting some exercise done, it's so hard to get motivated, but you feel better once you've done it

Paul is supposed to be setting up a computer in the garage so we can watch dvds in there

[ DIANE are you out there? Aren't you a graphic designer?????? Maybe you can help us design a magnet????

My husband will do anything I tell him to do

I am a web designer, but my daughter is quite good with graphics, I will have her put some ideas together and post them. Anybody have an idea for a theme?

She really enjoyed her chat with Kerry.

 

[LaurieWDW05]

Afternoon ladies, I have finally climbed out of my coffin... feel better today. Still a little queasy though. Austin is still sick but sarah the faker went back to school today.

I am with you sandy i run from all cameras... laurie can i just send u pics of the kids and jeff?

How is Austin this afternoon - do you think he'll make it to school tomorrow?

We're going to have to see photos of us all eventually, so that we can recognise each other when we get onboard

OMG, is it on the news ? I'm going to check out Fox News

This is true - I think we've all posted a pic or so of ourselves, right???

Hey people i'm back from picking up the girls. it is pouring buckets i had to dump out some of the water out of the pond again..Yuck it smells ..but it is better than having it overflow into my basement again..

Laurie done at school yet?

Yes - we got done about 2ish - then had to wait around to pick up th kids anyway.. The first hour or so was hectic - then, it was SUPER slow... UGH -

I am really dragging today. I think it is the rain! I'm not complaining! It is 54F here!!!! Let the snow melt baby!

It was pouring here earlier too - HATE the rain - but, it hit 70 here today - this afternoon was gorgeous!!

Good afternoon!

Veronica - why is it our lives revolve around PTA?? LOL I am clear w/PTA stuff till Friday - we have good ole' talent show practice after school!!!

Are you getting ready for the game? AND Idol is on - OMG - what to do tonight?

laurie, time to wake up i'm back...

Hey - I am back and you are gone- we really need to get our schedules a bit more in sync! LOL

 

[LaurieWDW05]

Mandy - there is nothing wrong w/hanging out w/us all day and night!!!

We'll have to come up w/some ideas!! I knew you were into some kind of design... It will be cool to put the magnets on our doors - hhmmm... any ideas?!?!

I am getting ready for Idol tonight!!

Hope all is well!
Laurie

I also run from cameras, if I'm in the picture there is no room for anyone else

If you are going to do something wrong/evil/illegal why do you do suspisios things to draw attention to yourself? Good thing bad people are stupid also!!

I need to get my fish extender list in to Mandy. I have been busy with work and 2 funerals and my gymnast daughter wants me to home school her next year ( 7th grade) and I am dumb enough to give it some serious consideration. There really would be some nice benefits, but like everything else, it means more work for mom!! I like to agonize over and research things until I solve/decide what to do, and until I make a decision, I drive myself and generally all around me nuts.

I made some lovely weight watchers veggie soup for dinner and ate it with chicken nuggets and a coke

C'mon - you must have ONE pic!! LOL

Did you get an FE yet?

Sorry to hear about the funerals - never fun, that is for sure!!

Why does she want you to homeschool?? THat would be hard for your to do w/working though, right??

Ahh.. WW veggie soup and a COKE?!?!?! How bout diet coke?? LOL

Have a great night!
Laurie

 

[phoenixphantom]

I will make 2 fish extenders one for us and oone for my PIL. I need to make sure they are participating.

I hate diet coke!

She will be training 14-15 hours a week and practice lasts till 9:30 pm, then it is a 1/2 hour home and a shower so she is generally not asleep till 11 and she has to be up at 6:15AM to make the bus at 6:55AM She is currently doing 13 hours a week but only one late night. She is always tired and gets sick easily. she also wants to dance and act in the school show ( which she could still do) She did it this year and those 2 months were rough. She is a straight A student and gets totally bored with school so I am hoping to give her more of a challange academically and let her explore dance. she will still go to school everyday at the end of the day to take choir and band ( she plays flute). I work from home so I am here, it is just the planning and such. I was hoping for cyber school, but then she could not participate in school music and plays. That would have made life much easier! I guess it is a rather sad statement that I only want to send her for band choir and plays.
Oh well still researching and agonizing at this point, but I have plenty of time to figure it out.

You are making them? You are good! LOL I am sort-of-crafty - but, not that crafty!!! I used to really LOVE a glue gun!!

I love diet soda - even when I am not being good - I just acquired the taste for it - now, I dont like regular soda at all!

I have a friend that homeschools her 4 kids - she lives in Ohio - she's been doing it for years...

15 mins to Idol!!!

 

[sarahsmom73]

Hi again

We just got power back but I am totally expecting to lose it again.. Ah... The beauty of living in the sticks! It is really windy here tonight.. High Wind Warning..

UH oh.. Lights are flickering... If I don't catch up with you tonight you'll know why!

Hope you all have a good one!

 

[sarahsmom73]

I forgot about Hells Kitchen! I love that show.. A friend of ours from England actually worked for Gordon Ramsey in England before she moved to the states to work at a resort. She has since moved back.

I am actually quite fond of BBC America. I love the cleaning ladies.. They kill me! I have learned some great tips though for cleaning up. My favorite is the baking soda and lemon juice that gets the crud off my stove!

 

[sarahsmom73]

COOL! I am playing around with door signs.. I actually made a design! I know what I will be doing later!

Chicken nuggets...were they at least baked in the oven?... How was the ww soup?

I hate it when the lights go out...it is so boring i need my computer.

Can't wait to see what u come up with.

Laurie,Have fun at work tomorrow and i will try to chat tomorrow.

Sandy, Sorry i sort of disappeared on you. Laurie and i were chatting on the phone and i lost track of time. By the time i got back to you u had already left. I'll catch up with you tomorrow.

Veronica where were you tonight?

Suzanne has been missing for sometime now.

Mandy, Hope you have a great day. By the time i get to chat to you it is half over..lol

Jen, how did em do today with the potty?

 

[mandymouse]

She really enjoyed her chat with Kerry.

LOL, it's great to see that you've got your hubby well trained

Wow, it would be great if you (or someone else) was able to design a magnetic door sign. I'm useless with that kind of thing. A friend of mine sent me a lovely sign, I'll take a photo of it later and show you what she did

I'm so pleased that Kerry is finally chatting with the girls that are coming with us. I just need to get Becky involved

This is true - I think we've all posted a pic or so of ourselves, right???

I wouldn't know where to find the piccies though. Maybe if we all post a photo around the same time, then we can save them and print them off (if you want to) so that we can recognise each other

Mandy - there is nothing wrong w/hanging out w/us all day and night!!!

We'll have to come up w/some ideas!! I knew you were into some kind of design... It will be cool to put the magnets on our doors - hhmmm... any ideas?!?!

I love hanging with you all, just a shame about the 5 hour difference, when everyone is getting chatty after work, I'm off to bed

That's OK Diane, just send it to me when you're ready. Sorry to hear that you've had two funerals to attend

I will make 2 fish extenders one for us and oone for my PIL. I need to make sure they are participating.

You must be very creative, I'm impressed that you're making your own FE's

Oh no, I hope you didn't lose power for too long last night Jen

Do you mean Kim and Aggy on How Clean is your Home, they are hilarious

Mandy, Hope you have a great day. By the time i get to chat to you it is half over..lol

Thanks, I look forward to chatting with you later

.......................................​

Morning Girls

It's great to see you were all chatty last night. Well I've got a nice quiet day to myself today. The girls are off to a local theme park today for their friends birthday, so I am off into town to get my hair cut

Other than that, I haven't got much planned, but I'm sure I will get my exercise dvd out at some point

I'll catch up with you later, have a lovely day everyone

 

[LaurieWDW05]

I'll catch up a bit when I get to work!!!

Laurie
