TE - An old friend's sister won the Miss Virginia Beach pageant this year. I wonder if that means that she gets to move on to the Miss Virginia pageant. :confused3
 
Happy Mother's Day!
Y'all were too chatty for quoting. :rotfl:

TE, Katt, acjeka (sorry if that's wrong) - glad you're all OK. :grouphug:

Jo, sounds like a nice day and glad David didn't get lost.

Janet, sounds like a successful zoo day.

D left the boys money to "take me out to breakfast" as a surprise. So, at 7:00 Woody woke me up to get the present out of D's closet, then said, "You can sleep in as long as you want, but it has to be before breakfast."
:rotfl:

Around 8:00 he said he was hungry, so I had to get up because "we're actually doing something special for breakfast."

It was very sweet, so I got up and went to breakfast. :lovestruc

They gave me my tennis racket, too. :thumbsup2

Then we did go to my friend's house for a late lunch BBQ, which was nice, and we were home by 5:00. The boys wanted a little dinner - I was fairly stuffed - then I gave them showers and they went to bed on time. Woohoo! D got home around 8:00, so that was good, too!

I hope everyone had a great day. We'll have to take the van in tomorrow to see about the flat tire, and then D is gone again from a morning to night trip tomorrow, then a Wed-Sun trip for the rest of the week. :sad2:

"See" you tomorrow - or possibly Tuesday depending on what needs to get done tomorrow. :grouphug:

 
HS---tell me about your upcoming Dallas trip! Can you stop by and see my friends near Keller (cause I really miss them!:sad1: )

We are planning to spend two nights in a hotel near the West End. I'm going to put some deatils in a post on my blog. Some of it contains a spolier for my TR, so I don't want to post it here. I'll try and get it up later. I'll let you know when it's up. :surfweb:
 

Good Morning Fockers! I've been up since 5am and already been to work and am home for the day , well at least some of it I have to get an oil change !!

Hi Rachael,

Is it your two boys that have Autism ? It is more previlent in boys than girls.

Yeah... If you have questions I have most likely already been there. My brother also had Austim. Severe.. no speech. so I have 40+years experience with them .

Pretty day here around 60 degrees, breezy and sunny. That's perfect weather. No heat No A/C ... save my money for the gas pump $$$$$.:scared1:

Good morning, all! Rosie & Rachel, have great days! :goodvibes

D & I drove over to the mechanic's with the intent of leaving the van for the tire work, so D would drive me back in his car.

Well, DUH. He only needed the TIRE. I could have done this Friday, no issues, because of course he doesn't need the van itself. WHY didn't I think of this??? :headache: :rotfl2:

D then went off to have his car inspected, and now he's back trying to cram a week's worth of "house stuff" into a day. He's currently, I think, hanging the center speaker above the TV. He may try to mow if the weather holds. He's doing laundry.

I am sitting on the computer. :rolleyes1 :rotfl:

Seriously, I have some things to do, too, but I thought I'd say hi.

The boys have their tennis lesson later this afternoon, but that's about it on my end.

I hope everyone is having a "happy as you can be on a Monday" kind of day. :grouphug:

Does he have a brother ;)

Sara has her swim lessons.. trying to make the swimteam this fall. she should make it with no problem. She has a very quick "dolphin" stroke. That is her best.
 
My babies (puppies and kitten) pooled there money and got me nice new running shoes to help my legs get back to running after all of fractures and what not froma few years ago. So that was my "mothers day" present. :lovestruc corny and dorky, but whatev.
Awww so cute that they bought you pressies :goodvibes

Accident= my mom ran over my legs and stomach with her car when I was 17 ( a week before I turned 18) so its been about 5 years but its still taking a toll on me trying to get back into running shape. Up until I was running at least a mile a day, if not a couple.
OMG that sounded terrible, glad you're all OK though!

Just checking out my new ticker too... :cutie:
Very nice, I managed to get rid of my ticker so need to go make another one :sad2:

Lost here is on a Sunday and I believe we're behind you, we've just had the one with Jack needing an op!

:eek: Bite yer tongue! What do you mean???
STILL have beauty pageants?
So you do still have them then :rotfl2: It's pretty frowned upon here, actually I don't know of any at all! OMG poor Ab winning most likely to trip and fall, at least she proved them wrong :rotfl2:

Well we've had the car serviced today, both been to the opticians (my first ever proper eye check, I know, naughty girl but all fine :rotfl: ) done some shopping, played some golf (big competition tomorrow) ummm done the supermarket shop and I'm now waiting for a man to come and quote for double glazing, so a busy day :rotfl2:
 
Morning! :wave: How's everyone this morning? Glad to hear the tornados kept away from our Focker homes. :grouphug: Now I'm looking for central Floridians... anyone seen Angela (askelton) yet? I think she's away from the coast, where the wildfires are, but not 100% sure.

Leo took Gramma and I out for lunch yesterday.. but paid with my cc. ;) It was nice; our favorite seafood palce on teh beach and it was lovely in teh shade. :cloud9:

Today's a busy one: dealing with the ID theft/harassment/whatever the heck this is. It's 99% claer that it's someone where I work. Always a comforting feeling on a Monday. :rolleyes:

Oh, and my AC is on the frtiz... just in time for summer. :headache:

Here's hoping this week is treating you all better!
 
Just got back from the oil change.They rotated my tires and checked my brakes said I need new rotors and pads qand I just had them done so I'm going back to AutoZone where I bought them and gettin them replaced and it hadn't better cost anything as Monroe said they were probably warped from the manufacturer!:scared1:
For those of you who are wondering what Jo means by DOUBLE GLAZING we cal it storm windows or Thermal ones. I'm sure she's not getting screens though! Right Jo!:thumbsup2
 
Good Morning, it has been a crazy day at work. I got here at 8:15 and have been running non-stop till now. My boss gave me a project this morning, that apparently he needed done LAST WEEK:headache:

The weather here is awful. Raining, Windy, and COLD! It is May, it should not be 40 degrees out:headache:

Sounds like everyone had a wonderful Mother's day. Glad everyone else is safe from the tornado's:thumbsup2

V - why would anyone go to that much trouble to annoy you...do they want your job:confused3

Check in with you all later. Hope you all have fabulous days:goodvibes
 
Just caught up and I couldn't multiquote!

V---I'm glad that nothing seems to be amiss with your identity being stolen and all. It's happened to me and it stinks!

Glad everyone is okay with all of the tornados!

Jo---YAY for the Communion and the girls!!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful mommy's day!!!

hello, actually it's my dd (7) and ds (2). she wasn't dx until 5yrs old, might be why they werent' thinking autism since it is more common in boys. for the most part , i worry about life after high school. not sure if they will be able to live on their own or will need to stay with us. i try not to worry too much, just do the most i can for them and we'll see what happens. i can think of far worse things than having 2 adult children living with us. thanks for the support.
oh yeah, i know what you mean. the gas prices are killing us!!!

Sorry :flower3: :rotfl2:

I am with you there. Joshua will probably be in HS till he is 21 which means that he and Sarabeth will graduate together. Not sure if that is good or bad:confused3
My brother stayed with MOM till she had her accident that took her life 2 1/2 months later. I had to place him in a care house,for which I caught HECK
( and I do not mean heck) from MOM for it. I had my two babies( ages 3 and 7) with me that summer. If Terry was placed then I could visit her more in the hospital and the Nursing home. Oddly or maybe not so... Terry died just short of two months after Mom died and I buried him next to Mom exactly 2 months after she died.

I worry what type of conditions Joshua would face at one of "THOSE" places, so most likely he will be with us forever. But we will cross that bridge when I get to it.
 
hey all, just had to share. masen ds (2) is getting his in house therapy right now. when teacher first got here, masen went straight to the kitchen table where they work and climbed into his chair. it was too cute. this is only session number 3 and last couple times , he actually fought when we tried to sit him in the chair. it's just so nice when they make progress :cloud9:
finally got my pictures uploaded , so wanted to share a few of my kids.

Sounds like everyone had enjoyable Mother's Days. We were under a tornado watch all day, and two or three touched down in south of Charleston. It made for an interesting day. Every time one of the boys would ask me what I wanted to do, we'd just look outside at the chucking down rain:laughing: I'm not big into Mother's Day, so it was fine with me to stay here and do laundry.

Now I'm off to prime and paint #1's room.

Mel, I promise to eventually get a lego cake picture up :thumbsup2
