Something About Nothing..........#11

I. AM. STUFFED.

 

[schumigirl]

ok, read back thru while I now caught up. turkeys #2 & #3 are in oven, pumpkin pies await after I pick up GD from school.

I have a 4-part whine ahead, feel free to skip it.

bridge wasn't made properly, still sporting the temporary while it was sent out for 3rd time. pride in workmanship is apparently a thing of the past when it comes to dental labs.

had another dr appt last week, now have have two minor surgeries on tap (early Dec & Feb). Least I can get out of cooking for a few days

youngest in a 3 car accident last Friday night. how the $ rack up so quickly on those estimates! still waiting for car to be disassembled so they can see if any damage under the hood. Wound up taking him to ER yesterday, sprained arm and something to do with rotator cuff that I hope resolves by the time he gets back home on winter break.

I'm buying my oldest DS's family WDW tix for upcoming trip for Xmas. Had checked and was told I could buy the heavily discounted DVC ones for them to use. When I went to order yesterday, was told by DVC supervisor they made a 'mistake' in their answers to me back in October (I have a screen shot no less of two separate conversations). so sad, too bad for me...not very magical is it? swallowed hard & ordered from undercover tourist yesterday and still gritting my teeth. As it is they will miss the first day of their FP window despite using fed ex to ship.

I need a vacation, at least in that regard I am prepared lol



my podiatrist always said to try & stay 'off' the foot for first 24 hrs, might want to check.

Kfed - you will have a perfect set! congrats

marci - great pics! your son looks so happy

I hope you popped a beer or two yesterday Janet........my goodness what a time you are having.

First hope DS is going to be ok.......big worry when they're out driving! Surgeries are a bit drastic for avoiding cooking for a few days.......but hey......if it works

Bridge work sounds complicated.........I'm considering a bridge now.....just considering as my crown came out again yesterday..........fed up with it. So is my dentist bless him, he works with what he has inherited from previous bad dentist and his poor work! Wish I had this dentist back then!!

Hope you're doing ok though with all the drama




Hope everyone had lovely Thanksgiving Day yesterday...........we did too.........had a rolled Turkey joint as fresh turkeys are not available here yet..........we get them for Christmas

As said above to Keisha.......crown popped out again yesterday so, fortunately got appointment with him this morning. It does sit in place so I wasn't walking about with a gap at the side...........just struggle to eat when it's loose......all cemented in again!!

Stores were mobbed today......Black Friday sales have only been around over here for 3-4 years but this year it's all ove the news and internet about people fighting and being arrested for fighting............I could not be bothered with all the hassle...........never go to sales, that's not fun.

Watched Insidious 2 last night........DH says I jumped off the settee so high he thought I had levitated it was a bit of a spooky one!!

See what other spooky one we fancy watching tonight

Hope everyone's good

...Speakin' of a cracked tooth...

I guess I got a little "over-zealous" when the fried turkey hit the table!
Split the little front tooth pert-near down to the gum line.
Ah well...I guess I can just stay at a "roach-coach" instead of On-Site for this upcoming trip!
We'll see what the tooth fairy sez Monday....(I don't think she'll be leaving anything other than a BIG DENTIST BILL under my pillow!)

This thread has to get off dental. I ate so much I somehow cut my gum and it hurts. I have been gargling, so it is feeling better. Hope all are ready to smile soon.

Small business Saturday supporter. Two of the three I went to were very appreciative of my business. I do try to do local as much anyway, as it is nice to see local kids employed by them.


Have a peaceful Saturday y'all!

ouch!!

dental issues are the worse.
since we don't have any dental insurance, i'll not eat fried turkey.
do you think the tooth can be capped?
wishing you the best on seeing the dentist on monday.
this has to be a very long weekend for you ......

[macraven]

[Bluer101]

Quick drive by.

Hope everyone with teeth or mouth problems are getting better or fixed. It's crazy how many are having issues.

Hope everyone had a good turkey day and long weekend.

Lady of leisure here and I am running out of time to do things!!! Leaving for Scotland on Sunday and not organised at all..........strangely I have all or most stuff for down here........I shopped in the wrong order this year!

But I will be organised, I'm heading out early tomorrow morning and will stay out until I'm done.......well, I'll stop for lunch of course




It's really cold here now......I hate the cold!!

But we did put our Christmas tree, decorations and all the outdoor lights up yesterday before the icy blast appeared. Everything looks lovely and very Christmassy

Hope everyone's good

Hi all! Well back to fill in about this weekend. For the past few years, my family has had Thanksgiving at my Grandmother's apartment in her little community. This would give my other aunts to celebrate with their families because they handle some of the other holidays. I went shopping Tuesday night to beat all the craziness of people trying to get last minute groceries on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

Wednesday rolls around and I get home from work. My brother approached me and tells me that my Grandmother passed away that morning. Peacefully, and in her bed, but of course, still upsetting. So Wednesday consisted on my mother and her sisters making all the arrangements for the services. Of course, my Grandma cannot be buried until the Monday following Thanksgiving because it is a military cemetery and they were closed all weekend. So Sunday and Monday were the wake and funeral and that was tough.

Turn back to Thanksgiving. Now that my family had no plans anymore, my aunt told us to come by. So we did, and I actually walked out about 45 minutes after being there. My uncle, who is an alcoholic, was in the kitchen and Chris threw a toy on the floor. He should not have done it, but for goodness sakes, he is 19 months old. And I have no problem with someone saying "no" to my kid, heck, I do it for a living! But my uncle was malicious about it and was very aggressive towards my son. Then he proceeds to kick the toy he threw at me! A grown man kicking a toy at a 7+ month pregnant woman. So I picked him up, gathered my family and we left.

So not exactly the weekend we envisioned to say the least. Sorry to rant, I just needed to vent!

And thanks for the congrats on Baby Girl!

 

[macraven]

i'm sorry to hear about your grandmother passing.
so sad.


your uncle is a piece of work.
i would have thrown the toy in his face.

good that you and your family left after that happened.
hope you stomped on his foot when you left........


vent all you want.
we are here for youse.

 

[KStarfish82]

Thanks Mac. Unfortunately, I have some further tragic news....this evening we lost the baby. It was very sudden and we are going through a lot, but if you could send some prayers our way, I would greatly appreciate it.

 

[macraven]

oh no...............!


be assured that i am praying for you.




is there anything i can do for you two?

at times like this, i wish i lived near you and would come over and sit with you and hold you and cry with you.



i don't understand why things like this happen but i am very sorry you both are going through this.

sending you hugs and will be sending you more hugs this week.


i'm sure i speak for everyone here that knows you or knows of you that we all will have this situation on our hearts.

we are here for you kfish.

many of us have known you for a long time.
your sister came here first and then sent you over to us.
i remember when you were single.
and a swimmer so we named you KFish out of love.

i remember when you feel in love and got married.
(byw, i think my invite got lost in the mail........lol)

hold your husband tight,
you will get through this but it will take time.

now remember we all are here for you any time, night or day.

well, i'm here during the night shift obviously

 

[schumigirl]

KFish......I am so sorry about your baby.

Words are so inadequate just now, but there are many of us who know exactly how you are feeling just now. It truly is one of the most awful things that can happen to a couple.

Hold your little Christopher close and your husband too. You have a hard time ahead of you but sending you hugs and prayers for your family to get through this heartbreaking time.

I'm sorry about your Grandmother too.

As mac says, we are all here for you........anytime.

 

[Lynne G]

Kfish - sending prayers and hugs to you and your family. I am very sorry to hear of the passing of your Grandmother and your baby. I wish you comfort and healing and strength. Please know we are all here for you. It will get better, I know from experience, take one day at a time.

 

[Lynne G]

Well, another day of rain. I was just above freezing yesterday, so had to scrape ice off my car, from the freezing rain. Not seeing the sun makes everything gray and black. I hope we get better weather soon.

Got mail from Universal yesterday. I don't think we are going to vacation the rest of this year, but depending on the kids' schedules, I am not sure if we will vacation the same time as we have done for several years now. Maybe a spring short trip to Universal? Hmmmm.

It's Wednesday. We certainly need that camel to come back. He needs to bring the sun.


Time for a cup of tea this cool morning. - and yes Raven, I know you are up too. Here's a cup for you.

 

[Mrs bluer101]

Kfish so sorry to hear about your baby and your grandmother. We are sending our thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

 

[Bluer101]

Kfish,

I am at a loss for words during this sorrowful time. Please know that I am (plus all the homies here) thinking of you and praying for peace and comfort.

If there is anything we can do don't hesitate.

Lots of prayers sent from me. I'm so sorry to hear of all the sadness that your family is going through right now. I know that your hearts will be aching for a long time but I hope that we, here, can give you at least a little bit of comfort with our warm thoughts and wishes.

 

[buckeev]

Wow! I popped in to be another "Sad Dental Story"...but did a bit of catching up...and am floored to say the least.

K...I am so sorry to hear of the incredibly rough time y'all have had. Lifting y'all up in prayer and offering our sincerest condolences. Hugs all around for your family.
