HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY SOPHIE!

​

Sophie I hope you had a great time at Chuck E Cheese and a great Birthday

So I thought the next funeral I was going to would be for my Grandpa, as we were going to bring in hospice Monday. Instead they are now talking about him going to a rehab center as of tomorrow.

My Uncle's Mom and step-dad were both killed in a car accident today. We have no idea how the funeral and things are going to work as they both had previous marriages, and both of their previous spouses are predeceased and buried at different locations.

My poor Uncle feels like his life is falling apart between his wife wanting to leave, his FIL being in the hospital and having tons of medical issues and now his Mom and Step father dying.

I can only image how my 2 cousins are feeling, as they lost two Grandparents at once in addition to all the other wackiness going on.

Please remember to tell your loved ones that you love them, as you never know what is going to happen.

I'm very sorry, Becky.

It's snowing here. There is only a coating to an inch predicted for this morning. Then clearing off for late morning, early afternoon, with more snow later today. I wonder how that will effect NYE plans for people?

I'm working on the alphabet with Colby now. He is getting better, but is still having some problems. I will continue working with him in the morning and Chris will at night. Hopefully he will have this down pat by the time he goes back to school on Monday.

I need opinions.
I think we are going to do a project about the saturation point of different sweeteners in water. As in, how much Sweet & Low can you dissolve, is it more or less than the amount of Splenda or Equal you can dissolve, and how does it compare with how much sugar you can dissolve. And no, there isn't a point to doing that, which is really bugging DH.
I have discovered that hot liquid will "absorb" more than room temperature liquid, but I don't think that will come into play here. Unless somebody can make it more interesting by incorporating heat?
Artificial sweeteners are very scary, but I can't think of anything frightening to do with them in under a week. The project can't include plants or animals - no time to grow plants, and no authorization for animals. I wouldn't experiment on animals anyway. I might dump dissolved sweeteners into plants and see if it killed them, but that will have to be a project for another year.

Elizabeth - what does DS want to do his project on?

So i may be going to disney in february! I found airfare for less than 200...it would only been for 4 nights, but we have one day off of work and i could take one personal day...i wouldnt have to pay for hotel (staying with a friend) so it would really be the 200 airfare and park tickets for 3 days!

sounds good.

Chris came home from work yesterday talking about a car he had seen at work. Every piece of glass had been broken out of it, every quarter panel had been keyed and scratched into the hood was "Pay Me"

Sounds like a bitter XW.

 

[Tammi67]

Thanks again!

Oooh, I really like the ornament!

 

[Tammi67]

Good morning.

 

[tmfranlk]

Good morning, DDA!

Seems like a long day already (though not in a bad way), but lots has been accomplished so that's good. We're getting ready to hit Chick Fil A for breakfast and then do a few things at the mall.

Have a good one!

 

[bear74]

so glad it was found!

Elizabeth - what does DS want to do his project on?

He doesn't want to do a project. He just wants to pass the first semester of science!

Sounds like a bitter XW.

I was thinking it sounds like a disgruntled drug dealer.

 

[bear74]

Continued for your mom Elizabeth!

ditto

 

[mommykds]

Sounds like a great bday for Sophie. Sorry to hear about your van. Will you make an insurance claim?

Thanks..yes we will make a claim since the damage looks like its going to be more than our deductable. Dana also submitted a police report which also helps with the insurance claim.

It was kind of funny when Dana saw the big wrench he said "wow nice tool" It's definately an expensive wrench. So when he brought it to the police the policeman who saw it said "Wow at least you get to keep that!" I guess men are very into tools.

I had a friend make my tree skirt from Christmas fabric. I HATE the tree skirts in the stores because they are always too small for my tree or look like they are made from fabric that will fall apart if you look at them wrong. I'll post a picture when I get home of it...if you know anyone that sews, they are really easy to make!

oh maybe when I figure out my Christmas present I will try this. As I don't have one because I have not seen one in the stores I like.

What is so hard about the letters I and R? He cannot remember those 2, even when they are the only 2 we are working on It is so frustrating. Nick was listening and he got frustrated too

I was thinking it sounds like a disgruntled drug dealer.

I must have read my own thoughts into it.

 

[my3princes]

Sounds like a bitter XW.

I was thinking that too. Chris and the guys though it might have been a drug deal gone bad or something

Is he really not getting it, or is he acting silly because he's getting attention, however negative it may be? Just a thought.
