Elizabeth this made me think of you

The part about loving cake, or the part about not being able to cook? :rotfl2:

Becky!!!

Happy Birthday, Becky!!!
 
I am so furious at DH right now. :furious:

He called me at 5:10 AM. He said he needed help. :scared1::eek:
We are having MASSIVE storms. I figured something HORRIBLE had happened.

He wanted me to bring him the cat carrier. He found a kitten under his truck. So he pulled it out and stuck it in his BACKPACK! :sad2:

He was at a store not too far from here, so DS and I went in the thunderstorm to bring him the carrier.

THEN he put the kitten in the carrier and put the carrier in MY CAR!!!! :scared1:

We CAN NOT have another cat. There is a one pet per unit maximum on our lease. We have 2 cats already. The kitten is locked in my bathroom right now. It has been hollering since we put it in the car. It is LOUD.

I e-mailed and left a Facebook post for the girl who runs the rescue where we got Arabella. I hope they are able to take this little cat.
 
Tammi,
Alyssa looks stunning!!! What a beautiful costume, what song is she dancing to?
Hope her partner shows up. At my girls dance school if you do not show to the rehearsal you are not allowed to dance in the show.

Terry,
Congratulations to your son & his fiance!!! How wonderful he wanted to share that moment with his family.:goodvibes

Theresa,
:wizard: for new job prospects.

Janet,
Well I hope to be in Disney end of July/start of August next year. Our AP will run out 8/8/10 so our trip has to end by 8/8. So hopefully you will be able to go so we can meet up.:yay:

Deb,
Hope Nick & Hunter are feeling better.

Becky,
Happy Birthday!!!:cutie:

Ditto, thanks Anne Marie!

I haven't thought about dates for next year yet, but hopefully they will overlap with yours a little!

Glynis I am enjoying your TR & pictures!
 
Elizabeth sounds like dh has a soft spot for cats, though waking me up that early would have piffed me off a little as well. Hope the kitten is found a wonderful new home!
 

Good morning :)

Another rainy day here, blah! Oh well, off to work I go.
 
Good morning, DDA!

Happy Birthday, Becky!

Congratulations to Steven and Michelle!

Deb, I hope the boys are feeling better soon.

Tammi, I love the photos. Alyssa looks gorgeous!
 
Deb - I hope the boys feel better today. I especially hope there are no consequences for Nick's balloon fiasco!
 
I think I'm turning into a mean, old lady.

Miles came home with a notice that the elementary school is having an ice cream truck come up on the second to last day of school during the lunch periods. If we want our child to have the opportunity to buy an ice cream cone, we need to send in $1.50 by next Friday. It seems that there have been so many "treats" at school lately, and we've also been nickeled and dimed recently. The kids can buy packaged ice cream and treats any day at lunch. I think that the most expensive of those items is $1.00.

The PTA had an ice cream social this past Tuesday in conjunction with an art show. It was an evening event, and the ice cream sundaes were free.

Today the 3rd-5th graders went to a local minor league baseball game. Tickets were $3 each. If your child wanted to buy "lunch" (hot dog, chips, soda) at the stadium, it was an additional $3. They were told that they could bring up to $20 for additional snacks.

Tonight is a "Math Night" up at the school. This is also free, but there is mention of refreshments. I doubt it will be fruit and veggies, but we'll see.

All grade levels have had another field trip in the last few weeks. The fourth graders went to a science center and hour and a half from here yesterday. That was no cost to us, and we packed lunch. The school did find it necessary to send home a note to remind us that we should pack a healthy lunch.

The week of May 18th, the school celebrated it's 40th birthday with treats (including ice cream one day and cupcakes another) and time out of class for special events all week long. Also, we needed to send in a white t-shirt for tie-dying (that has never come home).

The fourth grade is having a kickball tournament (during class time, not gym time). We needed to send in a yellow shirt. (Which I had to buy, since Miles did not own any yellow shirts.)

Monday is field days.

I know that I'm being petty, and I'll get over it. If I decided to take my kid out of school for a baseball game, though, it would be an illegal absence. Every time you turn around, you hear warnings about childhood obesity and being told to make sure you feed your kids healthy meals, and then the school supplies treat after treat after treat (half of which you have to pay for).
 
Just wanted to stop by and tell everyone good morning. I'm on here everyday but I don't post much. Just wanted to say hope everyone has a good day!!

Welcome! :)
 
Just to give you a head's up, it seems another virus is hanging around Facebook right now. Be sure to be cautious when clicking on odd links and don't open messages with misspelled words in the title and a link called "My home film."

That's my PSA for the day! :thumbsup2
 
Sorry, Beth! :hug:
Want me to send you a kitten?

Thanks, Elizabeth! I am mostly over it...I guess I just needed to get it out. We have an extra $1.50, and Miles is normal weight, so it isn't the end of the world in any matter. I do feel bad for the families that $1.50 means a lot more to, and there are plenty in our elementary school. For not much more than that you can get enough ice cream to get the whole family a treat at the store. (Of course, now all the ice creams are downsizing again from 1.75 quarts to 1.5 quarts for the same price. I remember when the standard was a half gallon...yep, I'm turning into a mean, or maybe just cynical, old lady :rotfl:)

Thanks also for the offer of the kitten, but our two kitties probably wouldn't be particularly welcoming to a cute, young thing. They are turning into grumpy, old men. (Maybe it's something in the air or water? :rotfl:)

:wave: Hi, MG61218!
 
Beth...

around here they have been absolutely nuts collecting money. $25 per kid for end of year teacher gifts.....there $75 gone. At least another $30 per kid for other misc. c r a p. Annoys me :confused3
