Good to know they are taking it so seriously.

Welcome Melanie. Just FYI, on the top of the Budget boards they say they have banned any sharing group that exchange money like photopass, fridge or stroller swaps. I hate to see you get in trouble just because you were unaware.

SG,
I have a DH who can upkeep and old engine or do body work the problem is he isn't home long enough to do those things and we don't have a big enough garage. The garage we have is full of tools and the other stuff he pack rats so if it rains or is cold there is nowhere for him to work on the car. Right now William's goal is to be a mechanic so there is hope one day that I can own whatever car I want and have someone to help me fix it.

Ironically, I just found Will looking through his book of Mustangs DH bought him.

TB,
I used and alias for a last name on FB so that people from the past would not find me. I am still friends with the people from the past that meant anything to me. If I don't talk to them now I don't need them looking me up.

Ask Timmy about a bunch of vampires from her past finding her on FB. lol

Kristin and Melissa,
Sorry to hear that the swine flu and other things are invading the schools. We tend to get measles and spinal menengitis outbreaks around here. Then there are the mersa outbreaks. If it isn't one thing it's something else it seems. It's good to be aware and wash our hands. Sadly, there is not much else we can do besides locking ourselves in our homes. Doing that would bore me to death so that won't work either.

Where are the newbies and Christine?

even with the alias they have managed to find me go figure

Kristin,
Wow they closed for a week. EEK!! The doctor on TV the other day said there is nothing we can do to prevent it but they are hoping if it is caught right at the beginning that tamaflu might lessen it. He even said wearing a mask won't help anything either. Are they saying anything different down by you?

 

[ANTSS2001]

happy Monday....

time to go back to work!!! Weekend was great... just on the sneezy and grumpy side but I have all the pills ready!!! Accchooo...

I hope everybody is doing OK!!!

Diva K, that is a wise precaution in shutting down the schools until they figure out what is going on but that sure is going to cause a lot of problems with folks who have vacations planned at the end of school and such, if they have to make up those days. I hope that is a great concern because that will mean that this Swine Flu thing is not serious. I will be keeping all you Divas in my thoughts and prayers.

Ang, just last night my husband asked me about whether a door was supposed to be open or closed. I have, literally, been working on the concept of that if a door is open he is to leave it open and if it is closed he is supposed to close it back after going through it. The man once paid $300 for a USED set of spark plug wires. Guess it does not matter if a man is capable or not if he is not there to do it any old way.

Had to spend an extended time at the CC today. I simply cannot turn down a child with a book in their hand.

I have been wondering about Christine myself and will write her an email. Maybe they are packing????

[ANTSS2001]

now am at work... now what ????

 

[SlightlyGoofy]

Dear Timmie, I believe you are supposed to work, or at least appear to be doing so. Hopefully all is well in your neck of the woods and there are no traumas to work on???

Had enough trauma here last night. Tom fell in the bathroom and took the toilet with him. Ripped it right up from the floor and it flooded everything, including Tom. He cannot handle small things so he was a mess over this. I had to take him to the emergency room. No physical damage other than quite a few scrapes, thankfully. I have a plumber coming to put in a new fixture shortly. Tom decided to walk across the street to the CC to avoid the trauma of 'dealing' with the plumber. One more nail in the coffin of our Disney trip. If we do not run out of money Tom might well be too unsteady to handle it. This is what happens when you sit and do nothing for a long enough period of time.

I'm so sorry to hear about Tom, the toilet, and the Disney trip. Glad to hear he wasn't really hurt, but what a shock that must have been. He must be remarkably talented to be able to take an entire toilet with a fall!

More importantly, was the door open or closed?

 

[Minnie&Nana]

...with or without Tom.

I am so sorry this happened last night...you must be exhausted...I wish a family member or close friend could give you some respite - even if just for a weekend.

I am going to keep praying/sending good thoughts/sending loads of dust trusting you will make it to Disney (truth be told, I am also hoping it will be without Tom, bless his heart).

That MacDonald's tune seems appropriate:

YOU deserve a break today!!!

 

[jmskinner]

SG, I'm so sorry about the toilet and Tom. I hope you do make it to the world.

And Thunderbird, that was too funny, "was the door opened or closed?"

My thought, was he dressed. DH fell in a hotel bathroom when we were dating. Bad enough he fell out of the shower, I managed to hit him in the head with the door when I went to check on him.

not alot of trauma last night mostly panicky ER patients about the swine flu... we have so many false positive that we are thankful for it.. mostly it ends up as allergies due to the change of weather etc... I guess it is more real now to the loca resident since they have heard the 1st swine flu patient came through the airport at PHL and is now at a local Philaelphia Hospital. Other than that it was a good night...

I hope all is well with Mr Tom and the toilet.. and yes I too agree with Chrissy... Disney will be there and we're going to be here for you waiting always... you know we are a phone call away!

 

[ANTSS2001]

Bad enough he fell out of the shower, I managed to hit him in the head with the door when I went to check on him.

Ok now that is a memorable date!!! Unless he dont remember it after you hitting him in the head...

 

[SlightlyGoofy]

More importantly, was the door open or closed?

TB, unfortunately it was closed. It is a small bathroom and he was behind the door so I could not get it open. He could not have been there long, looking at the amount of water that had spilled out all over the place.(which was still substantial) Now I have to see if I can get the door installed to open out instead of in. You cannot change Tom you have to adapt. He was freaking out but was able to get up when he realized that I could not get in to get him.

Timmie, I surely do hope that this swine flu thing is being blown all out of proportion. A certain amount of folks, usually young, elderly or sick, die of regular flu each year. I would love to have a world where such things did not happen but it is not likely and the media scaring everyone to death in the name of ratings is not going to help. JMO BTW, Tom loved all the attention he got at the hospital.

JM, the mom in me wants to ask what you were doing in a motel with your dh before you were married but I will resist. Bathrooms are dangerous places. I have indoor/outdoor carpet in all of mine to make them slip resistant, and also because it is cheaper and easier for me to replace when Tom flushes and then stands there watching it overflow.

M&N, no way could I go on the December trip without Tom. It is his favorite time of the year to go. It would be cruel. I hide my frustrations behind sarcasm but I ain't cruel. Yet. I worry about taking him down there and having something happen to him but I worry about me being down there and having something happen to me more. Tom has me. I only have Tom.

Ang, if we lived in a newer home I would be looking at thousands in repairs. As it is the majority of the water went through the poplar floor into the basement and down the drain. Blessings. Glad I will be able to open up the doors and air the place out as well. Life is good, not great, but good is alright.

I just snuck a peek and the new toliet is not an American Standard. I hope it is not repair prone. I do not need more. The other one was in the house when we bought it nearly 33 years ago. Should be interesting to see how long it takes Tom to break one of this generation toilets.

Tom cannot understand that his actions have ramifications. He might have broken his hip or worse. He thinks that I can fix anything. I can't.

Thanks for letting me vent. I will shut up now. There are people with real problems today.
