[Mommy2EmMoLu]

Here are some pics from the shower, it was so odd having everything blue!!!

I am off to get Mo and Lu bathed and in bed. It's beyond bedtime around here.

I guess I officially started Christmas shopping today. Actually I picked up a few things at Disney this summer, but today I consciously started shopping.

The cat misbehaved again last night. Chris found the mess this morning and rubbed his entire face in it. Now I've never heard of that working for cats. I any event he had to have a bath tonight. He HATES baths. We have the large dog crate all set up in the living room for him to sleep in for a while. I have no idea what's got him all worked up. He was actually very quiet last night so we thought he would be ok, we were wrong.

I rented a few movies from RedBox today. We watched Tinkerbelle, I liked it, the boys not so much. Then Indiana Jones. It was good, but Indy is always action packed. I also picked up the sequel to Kung Fu Panda, Furious Five. The boys are watching that. We are waiting for the amazing race to come on.

Theresa the girls looked like true sisters in the last photo

Robyn I'm glad the shower was a success. The Mom to be appears to need a little sleep though, she has some serious dark circles Did she get everything that she needed?

Theresa - I hope the girls had fun at their recital!

Robyn - It looks like your sister got some nice things. Is your niece excited?

Deb - The cat might need to go to the vet. When Alley would wet on things sometimes it was because she had an infection. As she got older she would do it just because she wanted to. Once we got to that point we never knew where she was going to pee next - that was so frustrating. I hope you guys can get it figured out!
Oh, and I have read that rubbing a pet's face inthe mess never works, regardless of species. They don't have the ability to connect the 2 events - they don't comprehend that you are rubbing their face in the mess as a punishment for the mess being in an inappropriate place.

Hi! Busy day here. Lots of running around shopping. I've got Nicholas' bedroom furniture all picked out. It's actually different than what I posted and I found a good price (I think) at a local store. Tomorrow I'm going to call a few other places and then order it from whomever gives me the best deal. We had a party to go to for dinner, burgers and dogs on the grill. It was nice to socialize with some friends I haven't seen in awhile. The kids were exhausted from all the running around and playing. I can't believe the weekend is over already.

We drove past Elin's music school twice today. She was all decked out in her Christmas lights headband. I wish I would have thought to snap a picture with my phone. The kids got a kick out of it.

Theresa - the girls looked lovely.

Robyn - I'm glad the party was a success. That cake looked AWF
ULLY chocolatety! MMmmm!

Elin - I can't wait to hear what all the kids say about your new 'do. Have fun today.

Thanks Tammi... I did... as you probably noticed when you drove past twice today. Were you guys stalking me????

Not one child noticed! Or they never said they did. One parent commented on my makeup (same as always) and another on the longer length (I haven't seen her in a few months). One Mom came up to me and said, "I have been looking at your hair all afternoon and I am SO glad you did away with the highlights and just went with the wine color. I LOVE it!"

So, it will stay for a while until I live with it a bit. I actually liked it better when I looked in the mirror this morning. It is starting to grow on me.

THREE MORE WEEKS!!!!​

 

[PNO4TE]

I know why I'm not sleeping and I fear that it's only going to get worse before it gets better. There is a situation that has presented itself in the past week that I am having a hard time internalizing and dealing with. I hate to be so cryptic with everyone as I wish I could share more but I just can't.

You don't have to share what is bothering you, Robyn. Just know you can come here and talk it out when you need to.

 

[PNO4TE]

so for the 2 days of the yard sale i made $40. Total between my mom, me and my cousin and GM. $200

Jennifer - I am sorry you didn't do better at your yard sale. I know you were hoping to.

 

[Tammi67]

Thanks Tammi... I did... as you probably noticed when you drove past twice today. Were you guys stalking me????

You know, I knew you would be posting right after me!

Actually we saw you 3 times. The first time was when you were getting out of your car around 10:15 in front of the ballet supply store. We were heading to church, and were turning the corner onto Sophia St., from the bridge.

I'm glad everyone liked your new look!

Good morning/afternoon, DDA. So my question of the day since Jennifer mentioned it and I'm struggling with it too...

What are some of the top things on your wish list?

This is going to sound so trite, but there is absolutely nothing I want but to have my family together at WDW for Christmas. I don't care if there are no presents under the trees in our rooms this year. I just want the 4 of us to be together.

 

[Blueeyes101817]

I hope whatever is going on clears up soon so life gets easier for you. We're here when you need us.

Ditto!

we had a piano recital today....I hate hearing the same song more than once. I am downloading pics now.

I swear I can't stand teaching the same songs over and over too!

Hope it went well!

 

[PNO4TE]

Sorry, Janet! I hope your extra shift is not too bad!

agreed! That is just nasty and irresponsible!

 

[PNO4TE]

Abi:

Cassidy:

both together...protesting terribly that their mama wanted a picture of them together:

and my favorite co-worker and the girls piano teacher playing the Phantom theme on the organ, amazing!!

Looks like they had a good time. What did they play?

I am glad you found Nicholas' furniture! Hope you find a great price on it.

I enjoyed seeing you all wave at me. I will have some photos to share in a day or two. Including my Stature of Liberty Christmas Light headdress. My Reindeer one was broken this morning when we opened the box.

I had already been there over an hour. I moved my car away from the school so that there was more room for people to park up that way. Not many of the places in that block were open today.

I thought it was neat that I found a sweater to match my hair to wear today!

 

[PNO4TE]

My feet and legs and lower back are just killing me tonight. Standing on concrete for 8 solid hours was not a good thing! I took Motrin and I think I am headed to bed with a book. See you all in the morning!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

Well I am home..I had a great trip and do not want to be home at all! The airline also lost my luggage-ugh! of coruse, my teacher manuals are in there...figures!
