I broka my baby toe back in 82. baby jeremy was in his crib; we were watching tv (pink panther). baby cries, mom had to LEAP up and charge into the bedroom or said baby will die or something.

we had a tiny living room and the playpen (remember those? miss them) took up a third of it. the leg stuck out on an angle and went right between my baby toe and the 4th one.. ouch!

nebo settles Jeremy down.. ok, we'll see how it goes with the toe.. doesn't look TOO bad.
5 minutes later, baby jeremy creis again, I repeat the exact scenario: LEAP up and jam that play[en leg into the same spot!!!
no the baby toe was sticking out perpendicular to the rest of the foot.
NEbo: "no doubt about it now; it's broken."

after the er dr. distracted me and yanked it back in place (and nebo took my hands off his throat), all they did was tape it to the next one.
and I ran out of the white adhesive tape at home, so I walked around for a week or two with black electrical tape around my 2 toes.

(Nebo isn't the only dork in the family)

I ran into a wall getting my daughter a bottle in the middle of the night and literally saw stars. I looked like I got beaten up the next day at work, swollen nose, black eyes. I'm sure there were some whispers.

holy OW!!!
 
Thanks for making a girl feel not so neboish.

Crazy how a baby that cries out into the night makes us moms move at lightning speed.

My toe feels a smidgy better, at least there is not throbbing, but the discoloration is still there.

This morning I sat on the edge of the bed for a few minutes to make sure I was really awake before making my way down the stairs. I can't be too careful you know.

It was 102 today in Detroit, broke a record. Looking forward to getting to Florida so we can get a reprieve from all this heat!:sad2:
 
:bday: Seem like there alot of Birthdays in July here. Which just proves my point that all the coolest folks are born in July. Even lil old (and I mean old) me.
Happy Birthday folks
 

Disney has always been big on Safety, but in recent years really cranked it up a lot for all the day to day stuff in addition to the obvious safety of rides, etc. All salaried CM's now have to go through a 3 hour class on safety, I just sat through it last week. Actually good class and engaging, but looooong! The even have Executives teaching it, so that is serious stuff. The instructor of my class was the GM of Attractions for AK and I know the GM of Port has to teach at least 10 classes.

What made me think of this was this: Going down stairs, ALWAYS hold on to handrails. Even the President of WDW gave a talk on this a couple of years ago, with a personal story of going up the stairs carrying her dog and a cup of tea and tripping on her bathrobe and falling down the stairs.

Look out for trip hazzards too, and do not block exits! And spills, there shall be no spills!

The goal is "No one gets hurt" (Am I really saying this in a Nebo report? :laughing:)

End of lecture.

So, in closing, always remember: SafeD begins with me!

Yes, they beat that into us continuously...
 
I'm going to continue with the potty talk, just because we seldom get to do it on these boards.
When my youngest granddaughter, Ainsley, was almost 2, my daughter, Stephanie had just about given up on potty training her. Now, Stephanie had bought a basket full of wonderful potty treats to use in the training, including princess crowns, coloring books, Disney stickers and more. Ainsley used to stand and stare at it on top of the fridge, just wishing she could have one without actually using the potty.
One Sunday morning Ainsley saw mommy using the potty and commented. A light bulb went off in Stephanie's head and she told Ainsley she was going to get a potty treat for using the potty. Ainsley walked into my room, where I was sitting on the bed, and a minute later Stephanie came in sporting a new Disney sticker on her pajamas. Ainsley, totally without expression, said "Good job Mommy. I'm poud of you." Stephanie then left the room. Ainsley slowly and thoughtfully closed the door behind her began pacing back and forth in front of the door. You could just see the wheels turning inside her little head as she was thinking, "I'm actually going to have to begin using the potty. If I don't, Mommy is going to get all my potty treats, because you know she uses the potty ALL the time. Well played, Mommy." Then she lifted her arms a little and let them fall again and said, "I hate Mommy."
 
Today is one of the Thumper's Birthday. No it's not mine, so that leaves one other Thumper on this TR.

Happy Birthday Lady H, TMW, Smiley Queen, Mrs. T.

Catchy! SafeD begins with me! Almost right up there with "There's a great big beautiful tomorrow....;)

True story:

Today I was so bored at work, I decided to attend the monthly safety meeting at my Resort that I have to drive to. A guy I work with says:

"Be safe, buckle up"

To which I responded: "Always! SafeD begins with me"

They are brainwashing us, I'm telling you!!

Marita, that is hilarious! I am laughing so hard that DH and DD are asking me what is so funny! SafeD begins with me....yep, I'm going to use it! :rotfl2:
 



And always hold onto handrails on stairs!!

Stay safe, everyone!

Now we return you to your regularly scheduled Nebo "Trip" report...
 
I said, "SafeD begins with me" as I was walking towards the stairs, which is why DW didn't hear me.
She said, "What?"
I turned my head and said,
"Sa...
....fe
......D...

........be....

...............g...


.................i...



..................n...

....................s...wismchkktpt..."

then I lost consciousness at the bottom of the stairs. But I think she got the point.
