I think, today, I am only staying on this thread and the budget board....it is too depressing out there on the CB...too much talk of the bad things people do to kidsmakes me really sad. DD and DS have a field trip (again) tomorrow...I told DH last night I don't want them going if one of us can't attend (we usually go on each trip...but they take a lot) ...DS is excited to go and knows about it already, so DH is going to try and take off half day and go with them...I don't trust a large group of kids in a public place...
uuhhh, someone just came to vent/for advice with a bad story about a mom with 4 kids that may become homeless....and the place where many of our homeless lives is very spooky....at some point the day will get better![]()
what is wrong with people that our kids aren't safe![]()

I NEVER take time off from work. I normally end up with WEEKS at the end of the year that I didn't use.![]()
Lyn5 said:I WISH I had that problem
I feel like I am always taking off...but the two kids are still young...and we vacation for longer lenghts of time...plus I used up all my days when I had the kids...DH has so many days he is maxed out and has to use them or lose them....so we have been using them, I just can't keep up with him

I hope your Mom feels better Mel.
I don't think she's posted in awhileMom2Ashli said:Hey has anyone seen Kelly around lately? Not sure if I keep missing her or she is not around?
Lyn5 said:Oh man...this day isn't getting any better. My good friend, the one I found a job working with me and I offered her to live with us for a while if she needed to...has been crying and crying...Her face is red and swollen and she is still working...which is so hard since we deal with a lot of people during the dayThere was someone else around when I saw her and she didn't want to say what was going on
I started to get teary too...I hate to see her in that much pain, I offered her help if she needed it and someone to talk to...but I told her I wouldn't pressure her to tell me if she wasn't ready....I asked her if she wanted to go with me during lunch....but I think she can't leave where she is working now...I hope she is o.k.....I feel so helpless....

nothing really, I need to wash clothes, and I need to wash my sheets. I took a top sheet to the beach and now it's full of sand, and the sheets I have on my bed feel like they have sand in them tooMom2Ashli said:So what have you been up to this fine beautiful day Ms. Tracy?
it has been a beautiful day though! It's so nice outside right now, I want to go to the park or somethingMom2Ashli said:So what have you been up to this fine beautiful day Ms. Tracy?
