And this day seems endless........

Good afternoon!

That is great he was able to save his money like that.

He's done very well and worked very hard for it!

I never thought I would get a 2nd Grader one. But I am really glad that she has it. Just a little extra added security and peace of mind. She will go down to her little friends house and I can just call her to come home. She can't have it in school but my Mom brings it with her when she picks her up and she calls me to talk about her day.

I never thought I'd see the day when first and second graders were getting cell phones. But they are so convenient and, like you said, just a little peace of mind for you. It is so worth the price for that peace of mind!!!

That's sweet that she calls you to talk about her day like that, too!

I've been so busy with tons of stuff. Between re-doing our bathroom

Sounds like lots of fun. That's what we're getting ready to undertake. It's not a major re-do, more like an update. I've picked out the wallpaper and the floor tile. We're going to replace the wood trim, the closet door and the bathroom door, repaint the ceiling and replace the light/fan. I'm working on DH to replace the window but he really doesn't want to get into that.

and then planning a mini trip in two weeks with another Dis board member that I met from here,

That sounds like fun too. Details, details????

and then there is the baby who keeps me busy.

Yeah, but that's a fun kind of busy!

Has hubby talked to daughter yet? Is he still hurt? Anything new in that situation?

They still haven't talked! I've talked to DD a couple of times and she hasn't told me to tell DH hi or anything like that. I've asked her when she's going to call him and she always say, "tomorrow" or "in a day or so." I've come to the conclusion that she's not doing it to spite him, she's scared. I did talk to her on Friday and asked her to please call him "soon" and "clear the air" because the Special Olympics are on Thursday and she's coming up here for them (to help her brother) and DH will be there (walking in the opening ceremonies) and I really don't want any tension or anything to ruin the day for DS!

Anyways....smile cause I'm Last!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm smiling...but you're not last!

I am!

Kathy, you mean your DH doesn't know somehow I thought he knew but your DD was supposed to talk to him and explain herself. She and your SIL have been very inconsiderate. Will he get upset with you when he finds out? or does he sort of know since they got the marriage license?

oh man, what was SIL thinking? does he know what your DH does for a living?

DH knows everything, but only because I've told him. I would never try to keep that from him. But DD has not told him herself, nor has she asked me to tell him or asked me if I did tell him.

She called here yesterday and Andrew answered. The boys usually don't even answer if caller ID shows it's her but he did. They talked for about 5 minutes - about the WII that she and SIL got, about college and how hard it is around exam time and DS mentioned he's getting a computer. (Her comment to that was, "sure, you get all the good stuff once I move out!) But she never mentioned to him that she had gotten married. The boys know, because I've told them, but they're still waiting to hear it from her.

I guess she will have to face him (DH) sooner or later. If your going to go off and get married and pretend that you are all grown up, you better start acting that way.

I hope it didn't hurt Andrews feelings about getting the computer. He saved his money and earned the computer. It is not being given freely because she moved out.

 

[Mom2Ashli]

Oh yeah - I am ltp

 

[poisoned apple]

you wish Kelli...
this play thing is really annoying me...

It's about time she starts acting "grown-up!"

I really found it funny that they went out and bought a WII the day after they got married. She's got so many debts - what a responsible way to start off married life.

No, it didn't hurt his feelings at all, in fact, he thinks it's a little funny. Whenever the boys do anything or get anything she always makes some comment about how they get everything and she never got anything. Which is a bunch of you-know-what and the boys know it! (She was on all these sports teams and in band and we were constantly running her around with all three boys in tow since they were younger and they know that. She just doesn't appreciate any of that stuff - she just lives for the here and now.)

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

Nope, don't think so!




I AM LTP!

[poisoned apple]

[poisoned apple]

What's up Lissa??

okay, that is what I had thought. Whew, I didn't want you to get into trouble (but I still think it sucks that she put you in this situation)

....and ITA with Kelli and am glad your DS didn't take what she said to heart....I also think it is cool that he worked for it

...and, hopefully without you to bail her out, she will learn to appreciate how good she had it at home....as they say, the honeymoon is over fast!

....I hope the play turns out well Lissa

 

[poisoned apple]

thanx...
my part isn't that big...
but i have a solo...
with noone else on stage...at all...

solo and on stage, that most definetly counts as BIG!!!!!

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

You should know me (us) well enough by now to know that could never keep something like that from DH!! All he'd have to do is look at me and he'd know that I was keeping something from him. We just know each other too well. I can't even keep it from him if I put some "secret" ingredient into dinner!

....and ITA with Kelli and am glad your DS didn't take what she said to heart....

The boys usually don't take much of what DD says to heart....which is really sad. They don't have any respect for her or look up to her. Not the way we expected our kids to be but she's done this to herself...and long before the wedding.

I also think it is cool that he worked for it

Yeah, we're really proud of him for working for what he wanted. And that's why we don't mind kicking in part of the $$ for it.

...and, hopefully without you to bail her out, she will learn to appreciate how good she had it at home....as they say, the honeymoon is over fast!

I think she'll be tasting reality very soon...at least I hope she will be...espeically as far as finances go!

....I hope the play turns out well Lissa

Ditto!

A solo is a big thing! Good for you.

When is this??
