[AlexWyattMommy]

Hope Sultan will be okay.
Hope SIOLB is doing well today.

Had to pick up Eldest from school yesterday. He has what Little Bit had.
I think I do to.
No swap making for me today.
DH thinks he has the flu again.

Little Bit is very happy to go to school today and get away from the germs.
Today will be cleaning buckets and napping.
Nothing else.

Nan, you're right. Spring in the midwest is not fun sometimes. We had great temperatures yesterday, but the wind was too strong to do anything outside. It's about 48 right now, but it will keep dropping until it hits 28. Ick.

 

[Lisa]

First thing to do today is put DH up on the auction block before I kill him. Bidding starts at 50 cents, highest bidder takes him, I might even pay you. It would have to be cheaper than my bail would be. What horrid thing did he do, you ask? LOCKED my car keys in my car!!!!!!!! And I was having such a good morning up till then. Now I am waiting for my DM to come over to bring me to work.

Put wood in the woodstove - done. Nan, I don't think spring is ever going to come.
Make chicken chili for this weekend's crop. Done
Start dryer. Done
Fold laundry. I am leaving that to the Bad Boy of the house.
Wash all the dishes from last nights dinner. I was sidetracked with DD.
Work - prepare and get out two cases, do payroll, be happy all day, dosh darn it!
Check with Po3 to see how far she is from East Providence to see if we can get together during the day. I have an appt next Wed there at 11:00 am.

I think that is enough fun and games for me for one day.

Rebecca, good luck with Sultan. Be prepared to have him outside once that work med kicks in.

 

[ddavis860]

Oh Boy! Well yesterday as we were getting ready to the Ring Mass for DS17 (it was beautiful by the way...but I digress) DH and I get our showers...me first and it's a little chilly. I'm thinking DS17 is showering at the same time, and he is on the first floor so the hot water goes to him first... Yeah, well, then DH gets his, and comes out and asks if DS17 is in the shower... see, we were thinking the same thing...

Well, fast forward to I get home and there is a pile of dishes in the sink...DS20 and his DGF made dinner and didn't clean up yet. So, I turn on the tap to fill the sink...can you guess where this is going...COLD! I mean, like ice box cold water coming out of the tap. DH left the after party and went straight to work, and I have no clue what to do. I sent DS20 downstairs just to make sure there isn't water all over the basement floor...whew, we're good there...

So, when DH comes home, I'm hoping for a quick fix. But we have already talked about needing a new water heater very soon, as this one is OLD. If that happens, we will have replaced every system in the house in the last 2 years...

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Oh crap Lisa!!! I'd bid but my DH is on the block next to your Dh because I'm ready to find those darn frequent flyer miles of mine... One simple task.. go wake the kids..instead he starts to complain at them because they don't jump right out of bed.. well, duh, they have been sound asleep you fool! Besides that...they haven't been awakened all night by the fact your pager is going off for the office b/c you have been on call...then wants to fight w/ me because I'm grumpy..well, guess who else got startled out of a sound slip due to the pager going off all night????????? I told him to go to work and find someone else to take call.. he can't I know that...but dang!!

Oh no Debbie.... that is nuts...but it happens.. we had to put an industrial water heater in our house.. 1. cause we have 7 ppl here and the amount of water we go through... (we even conserve like crazy)...2. our town water has so much lime or something in it that it would gunk up the heating elements w/in 30 days.... so he got us a good one that we haven't had to worry about...(he being the plumber not my DH!) LOL My plumber watches out for me! He comes over every 6 months to check for the corrosion on the elements...so far we have had minimal..he treats it and we are good to go!

 

[rlovew]

Debbie- so sorry to here about the heater- it seems like you are always waiting on a repairman.

I have the vet appointment at 9:30- the earliest they could get me so we will know more then.

Rebecca

 

[ddavis860]

Thanks guys. Yeah, it kind of feels like I'm always waiting for a repairman.

DH just got home, so he needs to get in repairman mode.

Pic of the day? Water Heater...

 

[aroyer]

Mornin. I woke up a migraine this morning. DH let me sleep, so my head is better, now I'm just groggy. OH! And stupid Texas weather. It has been beautiful the last 7 days- highs in the low 80's. Just perfect. Well cold front just hit us, it will be a high in the 40's tomorrow.

Lisa, sorry to hear about your DH.... it'll be more quiet at your house without him.

Debbie- sorry to hear about the water heater. Blech. I don't like it when big things break. Or little things for that matter.

Rebecca- I hope Sultan is ok.

1- try to get my head to stay on so far, so good
2- drink some coffee done
3- get dressed done
4- make bed done
5- swish and swipe done
6- shine the sink done
7- read reminders done
8- Kelly mission done
9- doors and mirrors
10- laundry
11- homework
12- dinner
13- church

 

[ddavis860]

Lisa- What a great idea! I never thought about an auction...

Ash- I hate that wooly head feeling. Like things aren't moving right. But at least your head doesn't want to crack open, so that part is good!

Rebecca- Hope your pup is OK. Gross on the worm thing...been there...it's gross there...

My dogs do that trick that the dog does on the carpet cleaning commercial. We all start singing "Boot Skootin' Boogie" when they do it. The vet said it's the anal glands...ummm, gross...and wanted to show me how to squeeze them...I just sat in my seat and said "No, I'm good"...he did it, and that night we had another chorus of boot skootin' boogie... So, I think they just like the way it feels on the berber...KWIM? Anyway, the trick mine do, is they go in a circle, or will skoot down the hall and out the door... Clever huh?

 

[ddavis860]

DH said it's the thermocoupler

He called his buddy that has a HVAC and repair business. They will be out today...

Repairman Watch at my house again

DH is also going to take to him about an on demand kind of system. We have really hard water like you do Nan. I'm sure we have a mountain of crud in our tank... That's something I can't get DH to do...

 

[rlovew]

Oh- Debbie- that is something mine doesn't do!

Sultan is fine according to the vet- he has a tapeworm but they gave him medicine and he should be just fine. I have his yearly appointment in early May so they will be checking again then. I just need to remember to give him his medicine again in 3 weeks.

so sorry to see this AWM.
hope you house gets over this quickly. you guys have had a terrible time lately.

 

[rlovew]

AWM- hope your family gets better soon.

I am thankful for Myakka repair people. They set an appointment- called when they were running late. Got there and got things done quickly. We had the internet installed at the church and the new antena put out here at the parsonage and they were done in 1.5 hours.

Rebecca

 

[ddavis860]

AWM- I totally missed your post! I'm so sorry you guys are passing the germs around! Hope you all feel better soon!!! This really has been a tough season for you guys!!

Rebecca- My cat had a tapeworm. I know EXACTLY what you were seeing!!! Gross... When I called the Vet for him, I told them that he had a tapeworm. They were like "Well, how do YOU know it's a tapeworm?" I said "because I'm a Med Tech, and I know" I got in some pretty graphic details after that, and she was just "oh" I didn't see anything after the meds though, I was expecting the worst...gross...but there wasn't anything. I hope your treatment goes as well!

My kitchen is looking glam- drawers are getting cleaned out! The dining room baseboards are clean and gleaming! DH is amazed and is even HELPING! I owe you big time Deb!
