Looking For Control Freaks & Worry Warts too........ Part 2

[karajeboo]

Thomas Moore : To live ordinary life artfully is to have this sensibility about the things in daily life, to live more intuitively and to be willing to surrender a measure of our rationality and control in return for gifts of the soul.

WTH??? Once again, I log in and everyone else is gone! I'm starting to get a complex!!!

Better them than Brittney!

OK, tonight, while with the child from hell, DD and her start singing, "oops I did it again.... I'm not that innocent." I quickly informed her I did NOT like that sone! WTH??? They are 7!!!

Just got back from dinner - you're all gone. guess now I need to talk to DH - see y'all tomorrow!

 

[CRdisMom]

Wow! Miss a day a miss a ton of stuff. Had my grandpa's 85th birthday.

Cammie- glad to hear that DDs are on the ground in MI. Keeping my fingers crossed that DD can relax a little with Dad. Wow you guys are real travelers. Multiple trips to WDW and London. I'm exicted when we head to my parents or In-lawa cabin (ok really it is a full fledged house but calling it a summer home really is tough)

DH had computer completely torn apart yesterday. He blew something up in it. Comes to me and says I need to buy a new one because this one is old. He reminds me of DD.

Debbie- my DD is right on the edge of dropping princesses in favor for Hannah and HSM. Younger DD loves Hannah already. DD has barbies that sing and she loves those. DSIL bough them for older DD.

Love the idea of the weight ticker. I tried to keep up wih the losing weight for mickey thread. just too many people on it. I'll post mine. According to the BMI (which is set by the 'Skinny People" ) I need to drop 30 lbs. That's put me at 140. I haven't been there since 11th grade. Hello can you say chest? Anyway I should drop at least 20. It would make moving so much easier the muffin would go away.

Suppose I'd better get ready for work. Yuck I hate my Sunday shift. 10-6:30 pm. THe one good thing is that there is a take out sushi place near by.

Well, guess what? I managed go down to talk to DH who #1 is worried I'm cheating on him on the computer.... I explained the thread a little. Now he has moved on to feeling sorry for me that I have to find friends online since he isn't home that much... which leads me to the great news...

#2 He said, lets go to the beach AND the zoo! I'm not one to pull the pitty stunt, but heck, if that is what he wants to do, who am I to stop him?

I found out I have HOMEWORK for this CKU thing. It is an album about you. Basically, my youth, college years, and today. This should be interesting. Especially since there is all that stuff about DM which is very character shaping for me. I learned a lot about what kind of mom I wanted to be from her. I learned I wanted to do just the opposite! It is for my kids when they get older. There are some many stories I would have liked to hear from my grandma (note, called her Granny, not Nana ) so I would like to do that for my kids.

Anyway, I'm off to access Photopass today. It should be interesting. I will be around.

Laura. Congrats on the ticker. I didn't have it automatically calculate mine. I just put in my goal. Should I have done it differently? I said 149 will be a stretch. The smallest I have been in almost 10 years.

 

[UsNew2Disney2008]

Oh - and can you change your screen name without starting over? I've always thought mine was too long, and sort of cheesy.

Hi Everyone! I was trying to catch up - chatty bunch! I wish I had known you were drunk posting - I had actually been drinking! Went out to dinner with DH "date night". But in looking at the time you signed off, we were just getting home. This time thing stinks!

I have to get ready for church, then a make over party. I'll check back in tonight - I've been asking for pics, but so far no one has responded. I'll at least post a pic of our house and family later.

Renee - I think you are the one with the stroller for sale - my kids were looking for a double for our DL trip on EBay - they were willing to pay $75 - 100 for a $200 one in good condition. Then we missed out on bidding, so they went to a mall in Washington and paid $250 for one You might try EBay or Craig's List or something instead of yard sale.

Okay, gotta go - I can smell the coffee!

I feel like such a cheapo, but there is no way I'd pay $50 to ship, and that is at least what this monster would cost. It looks new. I used it one time for a dr. visit. That is it! I might try Craigs List though. I hadn't thought of that. Thanks Tammie - great idea! I'd be happy with $75-100. I just don't want $30 for something that cost $300 new!!!!

The time thing does stink. There is no way. I think I was cashed out probably not long after you got home. Do post pics if you can! If I can do it - it is EASY!

Sorry we ditched you & Tammie! Doesn't it stink when we actually have to bond with the DHs. Mine lost out on me to the TIVO last night!

I apolgize but what is CKU?
Congrats on the trip! DH So funny! We are probably all a little off but whatever, that's why we found each other!

I DO love the whole Hannah & HSM deal but I LOVE the Princesses! We have those singing HSM dolls. DD brought them to school for her "star of the day" and only one came home!
Good luck with your diet! I have lost a lot of weight and STILL have a dough belly!!!! It sucks to be 40!
At least you can still visit with us occasionally from work.
Happy belated birthday to Grandpa!!!!
Where's the summer home? My P's is in Mukwonago Wis and it is also a house. We have always called it "the cottage"...silly. I decided not to go today and just stay home with our high maintence puppy!

Oh - and can you change your screen name without starting over? I've always thought mine was too long, and sort of cheesy.

I don't think so which is a bummer. I don't know though becasue Ebay let me change my name. It was debbie6221 and now it's WDWObsessed

Okay, gotta go - I can smell the coffee!

Hopefully I will outside most of the day. I already have the LIVE365 playing out the window and I think it is going to be gorgous out! Yeah me!

Have a GREAT SUNDAY everyone! Love ya all!

Plus on Ebay you can do "for pick up only" instead of shipping.


Hey, where's Cammie! Still sleeping!???

 

[Debbie6221]

A shipping thread I started... just an FYI for ya....

Hi Jillian! I see you!

 

[UsNew2Disney2008]

No, Debbie. I didn't expect you to know what CKU is. It is like the WDW for Scrapbooking. You go and take classes with the celebreties. The one I'm going to, you create a whole album as well as learn other things. It should be a lot of fun.

Thanks about the trip. Yeah, we are all a little coo-coo, but that is okay. DH thinks our trip sounds nuts. I think it sounds fun! He said that we all might kill each other trying to plan stuff! I said, nah.. Debbie's the leader! ha ha.

DS is already favoring Power Rangers and Hitting things! I banned them in our home. He is too young I think. He is starting to like Star Wars too. THat is why I'd like to go back to Disney tomorrow- hello - before he gets out of the character love!!!! DH doesn't want to go because he had talked to other dads who say the trip is exhausting! I want their names right now!!!!

I'm going, for the price of the beach trip, we could all go. Stay at the Poly (okay, so that would cost more than the beach trip) and just do a slow paced MK and a nice relaxing day at the resort.... Why can't I sell that one?

Debbie enjoy the outdoors. We are cooler today, but Tues - it will be 82! That may be a zoo day!

You just tell that DH of yours that WDW can be done ANYWAY! I always tell my DH that the more he lets us go the less I feel the need to cram so much in a day!!!!!

CKU - I have thousands of things for scrap booking and NEVER have made a page! Can you say loser???

Those darn power rangers!! Why did Disney have to buy them anyway! My DD seems interested in them too at times!

I'm uploading my pics to the photopass account. I want to go back... NOW! You think massive tears would help?

It all started for me wanting to make a baby book for DS. I have it almost through his first year, and I do love it! I haven't started DD's yet, and I want to make a heritage album too. It is an expensive hobby. Especially to get started. You aren't a loser... you are just an overachiever!

 

[Camster0307]

Hi - I'm here! No, I wasn't still sleeping - I wish though. Woke up at 7:30am, after not falling asleep until 12:30am!

I've been very productive this morning: already been to the gym; all the hampers in my house are EMPTY!; and all the towels in the bathrooms are CLEAN! I don't think I've ever had this happen at the same time before - I think I need to mark this date and time on my calendar!

So I'm off to the mall for the afternoon. My girlfriend got a 25% friends & family coupon for Ann Taylor Loft - will see if I feel like trying on any summer fashions right now. Will be back later.

Good for you!!! I have been randomly getting things done here and there. For some reason I don't really mind laundry so that usually always gets done first. It's all the other crap I hate doing(organizing, sorting, throwing things out, etc) Rememeber I am a CLUTTER QUEEN

We've been cleaning all DH is home so we are trying to catch up. Not going to happen.

Part of my problem is I never have anywhere I can do it and just leave the project out to finish later. I need another apartment just for me!! Did you ever see that King of Queen's one?


I'm outta here! Did you see that weather ticker!
