Team Focker Watch Chat Part 5.5: The Less-Cursed Version

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

It seems pretty cool so far. Ab is watching Ferris Bueller's day off on it now---I remember watching that in high school.

Have u decided if u want to go back to school?

I have, I am going to apply to the two nursing programs here in my town, hopefully I will get into one of them. I am also going to apply to a one year pre-health program which is basically prep for the regular nursing program so if I don't get into the nursing programs straight out I'll at least get into that (hopefully ) and you are guaranteed entry into the nursing degree program so long as you maintain a 2.8 GPA in all the pre-health classes (Bio, Chem, Math, etc). The stinker is that it is too late to apply for this fall as all the programs are full. At least I have a full year to work and save up money for tuition. I plan on applying right away once the application process opens up for next fall. Hopefully they won't make me wait too long on the decision as it is causing me much anxiety.

What is it with boys?!

A is time out right now because I asked him if he had washed his hands after he went the bathroom and he lied. He said he did and held his poop-stank hands right up to my nose for me to smell!!!! Little fart!

 

[Muffinygood]

Happy Birthday Kate!!!​

-----------------

I'm home. The short version is: It didn't matter too much about the drop mess up. The pressure is still 25 even on the new drop. He added ANOTHER drop and told me to have fun in Disney. I go back on Aug. 28th. I am sure I'm only on the drops till then so he could postpone the surgery.

Don't despair though, Fockers. All your prayers and wishes did do some good. I am totally at peace with this. I'm sure that's all because of you guys! Thanks.....it's amazing what the love and support of 2 dozen wonderful women will do for you. I'll deal with it when I get home from FF. Until then, I'm going to live my life.

Bob's almost HOME! Going to pick up Chinese now. LY/MI

[princessjv]

CE- If your friend is still here, I'd suggest making some dinners, so she has one less thing to worry about. Other than that, I agree to send her a card with a nice personal message. Also you can drop off: flowers, candy or anything that you know she loves!



T- Ouchie about the sty. Those hurt!


Kate- Happy Young birthday tomorrow.



Mel- I am glad to hear you are in a better place.


Oh I forgot everything else...sorry!


I am off to get ready for the big 08.08.08 party! BUT before I go... MY dh and I are in a HUGE fight and I have to go to this party with him. Last night I was measuring Tink for the clothes I am ordering for her, for her upcoming b-day trip. Now, I had showed him these items before... but for what ever reason he had a total freak out when he saw the cost. Now I know that these things are not cheap...but I showed him the costs of the items already and he told me that he would let me pick out the stuff...yada, yada...

I have already worked with the designer (someone from the DIS) at length. Now what am I supposed to do??? He is in major freak out mode on me. Major! Yet it is okay for him to spend what ever HE wants to spend, WHEN ever HE wants too.


Auuugggg!

So anyone coming to watch the 2012 Olympics here?

Definitely not, I'm not that kind of girl.

Sometimes it's ok to be that kind of girl.

Just a drive-by post. I'm trying to keep up, but we've been pretty busy the past few days. I'm going to an adult slumber party tonight (the ladies from our adult Sunday school class). Can't wait to get away from the kids for the night and have some fun with good friends!

I'll check in tomorrow. Here's a hug for everyone who needs one!

 

[jcc0621]

Trying to stay caught up is getting Let's see what I remember.

Kate - Happy early birthday....I will post a birthday wish tomorrow We decided not to do CHinese...we are doing breakfast for dinner instead.....

Jo - A tent is fine as long as I can shower and plug in my blow dryer

Jodi - Have fun at the slumber )

Angela - That sounds like alot of fun

Dawn - Glad you got to talk to mom and at DS.

Mel - (I'll buy you a drink at Petals to help you forget! )

Lessa - Your school plan sounds great and like you have really thought things out. Sorry you had to cancel your "date"

Hi everyone else

TE - 18 When I was 18 I was more concerned with what to wear to the frat confused3 But then again I went to several baby showers my senior year of high school

BTW - I am sorry to all the FOckers I was unable to give an update too. PLease forgive me

 

[Goofyluver]

well, i'm taking reg to the doctor at 330. i think she has a bladder infection. she doesn't really complain about pain, but then last time she had a uti, she only said it hurt when there was actually visible blood in her urine!! she has a very high pain tolerance, but doesn't handle light touch (like tags on clothes). i'm sure it's all related to the autism and the sensory issues. but she went to the bathroom like 4 times in an hour today and wet the bed last night. she hasn't wet the bed in 4 yrs, so i'm sure that's what it is.

I hope she feels better honey!

glad Jon is a little better. I like Xopenex too--did u know they make an inhaler of that too?? I just found out.

Shut-up. It works so well for Jon. I'm going to have to ask his doc on Monday when we go back.

Ab is getting ready for a wedding tonite---18 year old--seems really young to be getting married.

It is too young. I was going to marry Jon's sperm donor when I was 18. I called off the wedding 5 days before. Then, he abandoned Jon. Smartest decision I ever made.

What is it with boys?!

A is time out right now because I asked him if he had washed his hands after he went the bathroom and he lied. He said he did and held his poop-stank hands right up to my nose for me to smell!!!! Little fart!

I'm only laughing because it isn't me.

Mel...you're still in my prayers baby doll. I know things will work out for you. Have fun...and don't worry about ANYTHING until you absolutely have to.

Auuugggg!

I'm sorry honey. I have no husband...so any advice I offer would be skewed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jon and I napped together this afternoon. He is beginning to feel a bit better. But...he has roid rage. Steroids make him VERY moody and emotional. So, we've had crying and attitude...and I had to threaten him within an inch of his life. My sweet boy always does this on steroids. And...this is the kicker...I feel like shnike. I am getting sick. WTH does a woman have to do around here to just be healthy and happy???

We're settling down until the illness leaves our household. I'm making fajitas tonight and my brother, sister-in-law, and my nieces are coming over to watch the opening ceremonies tonight. I warned them we're sick...but they like the offer of free food too much.

Hey guys.. today has been one of those Run Run Run Days.
I need to go back and read all the pages I am behind on..
Kate ?? Is Today your Birthday ??

Today my "Baby Baby" turned 10. So it's busy. We had dinner at "Outback" as she gets to pick a restaurant for a birthday meal.

Her Big Gift was an i-pod. I have spent the last 3 days slipping into my office to download some songs into it so she could use it immediately.
I think it is now Permanently Attached to her.

I THINK I did a Miracle today... I made her Cry.. Not in any of the USUAL WAYS us Mom's can accomplish this.. but by writing her a Poem.. much like the poems my Mom used to write to and and about me.

Hello Miss Ten

My oh my.. Can it be ?
That little Baby inside of me
Has grown so much before my eyes
It’s not possible.. ( I close my Eyes)

Yet there she is in front of me
The eyes are blue, That I still see
But no more baby clothes
No more Baby Shoes
No more Baby Coo’s And it’‘s giving me the Blues

But, ”Ten” ? How can that be ??
When did this happen ? You are kidding me !
I just set you down , you toddled away
And you came running back looking at me THIS WAY!!

Far too fast the years have flown
I’ll turn around and you will be grown
I find myself wishing to go back again
And do all the things that I did not then

But I can not roll back the hands of time
The vision is gone, the memory is mine
Father Time is a CRUEL THIEF
Forward only he goes, Giving no relief

It breaks my heart with each passing year
All full knowing that one day I’ll hear
That you are engaged the wedding is soon
And you come home bringing your groom

But that’s far off ,it’s not coming soon
What’s important now is you “clean your room”
That you look when you cross the street
And do not talk to strangers you meet.

Oh Young Miss Ten,
You will NEVER KNOW
Just HOW MUCH...
I LOVE YOU SO

​

Yeah.. she began to cry.. and said "she did not want to grow up and leave me EVER"
I tried to tell her that "ONE DAY she will find a reason to be on her own. But she did not have to leave right now.. In fact I preferred she stay a long long time."

 

[Goofyluver]

Katt...don't do that. I'm 'motional today.

 

[jcc0621]

Katt - That was a beautiful poem
