I was math retarded

Very funny!!!

Too bad it's not vary P.C. to say retarded any more.

In the late 70's and early 80's everyone was called retarded when they acted stupid or silly. I have recently added this work back into my vocabulary!!


Michelle I will get you a pin if you get me one!!

Kids are clean and sleeping!! they payed together in Gabriels crib for a bit while the jammies were warming in the dryer and then off to bed!! it was soo sweet! he did the cleaning, i did the drying off of the kids! it's a good system for those slippery little guys!!

Mindy -

I'll be even better off with my retaining wall up and a tall fence on it so I don't have to see my aweful neighbors anymore!!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

Oops didn't mean to be un-pc. I am so used to that work-I grew up on it if you will-and I often don't see the insult in it. Retarded in the dictionary just means slow.

Glad your little angels are squeaky clean Michelle!

Any plans for tomorrow you 2?

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

We had rice with tacos for dinner tonite and i just got through cleaning all the rice up from Autumns area!! KIDS!! haha!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

ding ding ding........i think we have a winner !!
and it is rosemarie.........

yes, first math class for high schoolers is algebra I, followed by geometry and then algebra II.

algebra II is a combination of algebra I and geometry

Gee, I'm smart! . So smart that I took Calculus I in college. Really. If I saw calculus now, I sure wouldn't know what to do, as of solving the problems. Too long ago. Ok, enough of my bragging ...........

Anyways, since I got the question right, do I win a trip to WDW?? j/k

we had flour breaded sauteed chicken and rice with asian veggies. Very yummy and there was plenty left over for lunch tomorrow!

There isn't much going on for me tomorrow either. Just fun fun work. But its not too bad I guess. I like my job, but its hard to focus when you're almost single digit dancing!!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

i'm soo bored

Sal is now changing the Serpentine belt on teh van whatever that means

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

[macraven]

rosemarie wins the big one !!!


or a chalupa...........it depends what i go buy first.






michelle, i am doing mnsshp on sept 29 and oct 5th.
do you need me to buy the mnsshp pin for you on the oct one i am doing?
anyone else want me do get them one for either night??


last year at all stars, they sold the mnsshp special pins in the gift shop the day after the event..........so i did buy some nights mnsshp pins after the fact.

I'm sure you meant no harm in saying retarded Mindy. I thought it was funny!


Well, since I spent most of my day on the phone we never made it to the grocery store either. So Hunter and I will do that while Lauren is in school. It's kinda nice her being in school. I can go back to grocery shopping without yelling at both kids to calm down and stay by me. This is my mantra in the stores. I call Lauren the Pied Piper. She leads her brother all over the place and he willingly follows. When she's not around he NEVER leaves my side. I don't even have to say anything to him, he's just really good.


Some other good news: I spoke with my old friend/co-leader for my Brownie troop today, her daughter wants to return to our troop and she wants to help me with the troop again!! I'm really excited about this, as we really got along.

One of the calls I got today was from one of my troop girl's moms. She was telling me how her and another mom from the troop were discussing how I might not be up to handeling the troop and how they can take care of things if needed. What???? Am I hearing that right? I haven't heard from any of them for over a month, way before my procedure, and they are talking about my condition without even knowing how I am. Don't you think one of them would have called me and asked me how I was before discussing things they don't know about??

At a meeting I went to last week, another leader told me how she heard about my health issues from one of my mom's. She was calling this mom to see if she could help with summer camp back in June. When the mom said she couldn't the leader said she would call me instead. And my mom told her "oh, no, don't bother calling her. She's unable to do anything....blah blah blah."
So the leader thought that I wasn't taking calls.
It's one thing to tell someone so and so is not well, but to tell them not to call someone is rude.

I am thankful this is my last year as a leader!!

OK, fine but I still don't like it.

I somehow managed to pass Algebra II even with an A, even though I couldn't tell you the first thing I learned in Geometry.

Oh well...I *knew* there had to be a logical reason behind it, even if I didn't understand it. I didn't go beyond Algebra II (we only need 1 year of math to graduate anyway -- so I had 2 bonus years, I wasn't about to add another one onto it!).

Mac, i'm going to the October 5th one, but i would love the 29th please!! Thanks!

whoa that is awful! They don't have any right to judge you like that. And that mom should not make assumptions without knowing how you are. But if I was that leader, I wouldn't have taken that lady's word for it. I would have liked to know first hand, especially if she knows you. An email, anything. And it sounds like those other 2 moms are pretty eager to take things over. Maybe just sitting them all down and explaining that you're ok enough to run the troop will set things straight. But if you do need help, at least you have some volunteers!
