MOOvers on the MOOve Again

[Backstage_Gal]

Moo, that cow is getting much closer to the barn than when you started. MooHOO!!

 

[MommyPoppins]

My sister is in labor. Yay! I'm SO happy she won't have to be induced! She is 9 days overdue today. I'll be heading to the hospital soonishly. Unfortunetely, just minutes before I got the call I took 4 teaspoons of Benadryl so I would sleep well. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Pray it doesn't effect me this time!

 

[Backstage_Gal]

YAY,MP! I bet the excitement will keep you awake

For at least a couple of the regular posters on this thread. I won't reveal any names. (MP and Twinkee)

But it's not always quite so simple, psychologists say. Some women may like being pregnant a little too much, often driven to rapidly reproduce out of insecurity, a craving for attention, or feelings of abandonment by their own parents.

Oh yes, WT. You so have it right. The months of 24/7 nausea, bloating, swelling, constipation...the constant peeing, sleeping only 1 1/2 hours at a time and then having to hobble to the bathroom to pee. It's SOOOOOOO enjoyable. And not to mention passing a 9lb baby through your hoo haa.

What's not to crave about that?

I'm taking Friday off, Woohoo!!!

 

[pumba]

after I am done here I will google recumbent bikes........Now you really know I am an old lady.

My frosting is the confectionary sugar powder, then add a wee bit of milk, and a wee bit of canala oil, and some of my homemade vanilla and then stir...Always leave sugar in case it gets to runny....Then I always keep a jar of cherries in the fridge........when the cherries are gone I keep the juice to color and flavor my frosting......I had one girl that I cared for call me up and say....tell me how to make the frosting....so I get to the vanilla and I tell her a half of a jigger of vanilla.

vanilla is a bottle of vodka, and put in four to six vanilla beans with just a slight slit in the bean......put it in a cupboard for four to six weeks and in the dark......voila vanilla that is not 10dollars for a little bottle.......this stuff is GOOD.....and because good vanilla is up to 90 plus proof..it is expensive.

Today is another OVERCAST day.....yesterday we had some wicked bad storms........shakes me up to see the sky as black as it was....

Hope the babies are born soon for you both.....

First day of school. Pass the tissues.

 

[MommyPoppins]

No baby. I tried to talk her out of going in so early. I knew she wasn't ready to go in. My older sister and I stayed at our homes until they got through triage so we didn't make a wasted trip. lol. Thank goodness! When she got there she was only 2cm and had stopped contracting. Why can't little sisters listen to the wise counsel of their older sisters? My Mom is always in panic mode when one of us has a baby. Which is why I don't tell her when I am in labor until it's about time to leave for the hospital. ) My Mom never had to time contractions because her water always broke, so she isn't the person who should be giving advice to the laboring woman. She did the same thing with my other little sister.

So maybe today. It would be much nicer to happen during the day anyway. It'll probably mess up my appointment this evening. lol

 

[TwinkieMama]

Waffles Natush. WTH? Waffles? Is that a male or female? I'm thinking male, not sure why, LOL. A guess a female can waffle as good as a guy

Waffles seemed feminine to me. Maybe Crepe Suzette would be a better choice.

BB said that she was enforicing the thumper rule. Not likely to change my life a whole lot, but you never know.

What is the Thumper Rule? As in don't thump her? or Thumper from Bambi? Didn't his mama tell him if you can't say something nice don't say anything at all? Where would this thread be if we all followed that rule?

Twinkie-- when are you due?

1/30/2010

UTAHMAMA- welcome back to the 21st century. Is Norah going to kindergarten this year? I am sure you will rock A&P. Just remember the toe bone is connected to the foot bone and the foot bone is connected to the leg bone.

I
WT and Twink - Just have to "say" thanks for the laughs!


bbn - Do I detect that you're sad that you haven't met Twink IRL? Or have you?

1. YW
1a. I have never even heard of crisco frosting. Blech.
2. Of course bbn is sad she hasn't met me. Who wouldn't be sad not to meet me?

Thanks WT. I wonder if there is some sort of program I can get into.

Hi. My name is Twinkee. (Hi Twinkee) I love being pregnant. I know I shouldn't but something about needing 17 hours of sleep a day and looking forward to two more years of changing diapers PLUS not having to re-enter the workforce is just so alluring.

Seriously-the article didn't even mention my real reasons. I am trying to enrich the gene pool. See the movie Idiotcracy for more information.

Don't forget the heartburn, stretch marks, and extreme exhaustion!

First day of school. Pass the tissues.

Tomorrow is the first day here. It is more the most wonderful day of the year than a tissue needing ocassion. Of course I still have two at home so I won't be bored.

My Mom never had to time contractions because her water always broke, so she isn't the person who should be giving advice to the laboring woman.

Any updates? The two times I went into labor my water broke first too. It does make it nice (but more painfu) because you don't have to guess about when to go to the hospital. Plus you knew they were not going to send you home.


I need to work on my class notes and syllabus today. So I'll probably be here alot. Instead.

 

[celerystalker]

Morning all!
I'm traveling today - sorta.
I'm in our Murfreesboro office. It's a town near Nashville.
It's the exact same distance from my house as my regular work - so I won't get mileage.
I can technically get per diem since it's in another county, but it's only 15 bucks.

This weekend I'm going to try a grapefruit cake.
Tonight I'm making probably either a rainbow or flower cake - just the top decorated. I need to grap piping gel first though. and parchment paper.
the book suggests tracing with piping gel onto parchment paper then placing that on the cake for guidelines. pretty good idea!

but I found a paula deen recipe for grapefruit cake.
I'll make it and try it out on my family. maybe.

plus the one I decorate in class on Saturday will be for my grandmother's birthday.

 

[UtahMama]

Wendy, w00t on having real internet back! Hope you will stop by lots.

Personally, I think other mother will be hating on you of you send their kids home with a fish! I wouldn't like it for sure.

Which is exactly why I think it's a good idea! LOL

Wendy! I think the other parents would prefer inanimate pets You're going to do great in Anatomy and Chemistry!

Maaan! I'm starting to second guess my brilliant party favor idea now. Any other pet shop ish favor ideas? I also am seeking a game and a time filler craft project. Any ideas, moovers?

My sister is in labor. Yay! I'm SO happy she won't have to be induced! She is 9 days overdue today. I'll be heading to the hospital soonishly. Unfortunetely, just minutes before I got the call I took 4 teaspoons of Benadryl so I would sleep well. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Pray it doesn't effect me this time!

Woot! I was 10 days over due with Jordan. When he was born, his skin was all peely and dry.
One of my Nurse instructors is a retired midwife. I love to listen to her stories!

I only "liked" being pregnant the last time with Norah. Haaaated it the other times. I thought of that crazy octomom when I skimmed that article.

I'm sticking with the article. I think the real reason you feel compelled to rapidly reproduce are:

1. insecurity, (check)
2. a craving for attention, (double, no triple check)
3. feelings of abandonment by their own parents (no clue)

The Top Ten Real Reasons I am Rapidly Reproducing

10. My maternity swim suit is newer and more stylish than my other one.
9. Improve the gene pool
8. To have someone (my dr) be happy that I am gaining weight
7. To get a 2 night, 3 day all inclusive stay at the Little Hospital on the Prairie
6. It makes the Pope happy. I know. He texted me. From the Vatican.
5. To give more children a chance to grow up with Minnesota Twins curtains in their bedroom.
4. Tax break. Duh.
3. I like having birthday cake every two weeks. I have some spots on the calendar to fill.
2. To be popular and the center of attention- I haven't gone to the bathroom uninterupted since 1997. Why would I want to start now?
and the real, number one reason I am rapidly reproducing

1. To have enough kids so they can pitch in and support my retirement in the manner to which I wish to become accustomed.

Well played! I am suddenly ashamed I only have four.
Is it sick that I considered my hospital stays a "break"?

6. It makes the Pope happy. I know. He texted me. From the Vatican.

Well now I'm just all kinds of jealous!!! He hasn't texted me in DAYS!!!!

Classroom set up...check!
Absurd amounts of money that I don't have used for supplies for poverty stricken thugs...check!
cheerful welcome letter that no one will read...check!
plans for what to do with 27 new smiling faces...check!
excessive obsessing with other teachers over lunch and special area schedules...CHECK!

I think I checked all my checks. If there's another check to be checked I'm not checking it. Wish me luck tomorrow, y'all! I do believe I'm pretty excited! I'm off to the walmarts for one final supply/flower run. Because you can't open a classroom without flowers all around. Le duh.

PJ, is there something you'd like to share with the group?

Glad you are excited to go back to work tomorrow, that's a good thing.

Well, found out tonight that DH is taking Friday off too, same as me. And he is planning on moving stuff to paint his bedroom. So instead of having a nice relaxing day alone by myself, I will probably get roped into helping him move stuff. Can't move it to Monday either, cause new Director called his first meeting with all the staff for then. And other people are taking next Friday off and then it's round 2 of budgets, ughh! So I guess I'll just grin and bear it.....
