I am not leaving the house today!!! My DD2 has softball practice, but DH is taking her! I plan on working on my partner swap and relaxing if I can. I really need to clean and organize a little but I figure summer break will be here in about 15 days and I will have plenty of time. Laundry is almost done, one load to fold that is currently drying!

I wish we had an IKEA closer. At least I think I wish that, I might spend too much money if we did.

yes it is quite the place....we aren't shopping, but Rachal is, we just like going to look around! someday I will probably get megan some new bedroom furniture from there though

 

[JJ&JHsmom]

Julia wants to go to Ikea soon to get some organization pieces for her room. I am pushing this off till June as this month is crazy busy and I know it will be an all day event.

Airfare is booked. Used miles so it only cost me $20 for booking fee!

Well DD#1 has decided that she will continue to lie about doing chores. So we dont have too much to buy, no new dresser and nightstand for her. Next thing will be this weekends trip to greatwolf, and if it happens again its the Disney trip.

I have no idea what else to do with her. We've talked about it, shes been punished. I took all her reading material away. No computer, no tv. She just doesnt get it

Oh a good note the sun is out, DS is in a good mood and we are headed out to do fun stuff!!

Have a great SUNday!!

Afternoon everyone!!! PJ finally got home about 2:30am.. we talked til 3:30am... C was home by 12:30pm... they had a wonderful time!!!

Everyone have a wonderful day..

Today:
We are getting ready to head out for 2 soccer games (both boys play)... lunch between two games
home

make kids clean rooms (hang formal clothes)
scrap a few pages
clean up house
kit pages for tomorrow as DH will be using my craftroom for conference calls... ERRRRR

It's supposed to be in the 80s again today and the sun is out... hope we are playing on the shaded field for the first game...


Have a great day!!!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Rachal, I know it may be a real pain but have you stood over top of her while making her do the chores?? We had to do this... it's easier now as I take the car away if chores are not done... (hasn't been an issues since I took it away once; utilized that same tactic when she would back talk)...

Boys we take away all their electronics...*but you have tried that*..

I wish I had a better solution for you... this will pass just stick to your guns...

feel your pain....I like Nan's idea to follow her around while she's doing her chores...will probably bug the heck out of her!

will see you in a bit, we are heading out at ten, need to get some gas first!
yay for the sun! and K is in a happy mood!

happy the kids had a fun time last night Nan and made it home safe!

 

[JJ&JHsmom]

Rachal, I agree with Nan, it is going to be pain, but she will realize you are serious about her doing them.

Good luck and have fun today!

Rachel Threaten to send her here. My chicken coop and turkey pen need cleaning. Other than that the following her around is the best bet. I know it's a pain but we did it with both boys (all the way to the barn in -20 windchill a couple of times) got the point across real fast in this house. I made their live miserable for making me go out to supervise. Course Erics room is a diaster cause I threaten to clean it with a garbage bag and now he's decided that's an easy way to get it done. so me being me has left it..... and it's killing me cause when I shut his door all the light at the end of the hall is blocked.

Today I've folded cloths, decided the dryer has and issue (great) and talked with one of the new selectpeople. She's one that seems to be under the jerky ones thumb. she's scared to death and didn't 1/2 realize what she got herself into, another great....... but she understands that we just want this to move forward in the fastest way to come to an end and have a space back for the village. So I feel like we have 3-4 solid votes the 4th depends on if 1 is in town. I need 4 to pass this whole mess thru. She could still go either way, But she is embarrased by the jerky ones behavior so that is a good thing.

Off to find my kichen

Caroline glad you're feeling better!!!!
Lisa and Rachel have fun

 

[mommy2mrb]

Keep Plugging away at them Christy! hope the come around and realize how important this all is to the village!

can I threaten Megan with the chicken coop too


we had a great time with Rachal and gang today! the girls had fun giggling and I got some major baby fix time in too! Keegan is so yummy a beautiful day, great lunch at Ivar's on the pier, fun at the aquarium - cute to watch Keegan's face with all the fish, etc. and good friends! day for us!

 

[joyah]

Lisa feel free to use that anytime you need it. I wish it worked on my kids!

I've just sent the email off with the results of the meeting I'm hoping that it will get to the arch. very shortly in the form we sent it. If not Tom will email it himself! We are no longer playing nice in the sandbox so to speak.

Spent all afternoon at the Vet with my poor furbaby. Kitty is dehyrated, his lood sugar level is high, may have a problem with his gall bladder etc... taking him to own vet tomorrow. We have been giving him droppers of pedialyte tonight.
Just this afternoon cost $576.. l love, love my cat, but the cost is about to skyrocket, and this scares me. He is 11 1/2. Has this happened to any of you? Please, some advice needed.

Caroline
I'm sorry you're having to deal with this to. Poor Kitty. I wish I had some good advice to share and I'm praying for a different outcome than we had. My baby had kidney failure, but that was a long time ago and there are many things that those symptoms can be. Will add Kitty to my prayers.
