Really Bad night here !! Judy is not doing well at all !! I am really worried about her !! think she' s filing for divorce next week!! Can't go into many details ! But lots of HUGS needed !!!

I'm sorry Rosie! :hug: for Judy!

After the game we did some shopping at best buy and went out on a double date to see Ghosts of girlfriends past and went out to dinner.

How was the movie? I hardly get to a movie, I still wanna see 17 again (Zac Efron & Hunter Parish in the same movie- drool). But sadly I prob won't see any movies until Angels & Demons comes out.

A mellow night here. Watched some tv, playing some games now. KC is gonna hop on the xbox when he gets home from getting me a frozen fruit bar. He rocks. Yep it's midnight and he went anyway! He's about to call his mom and tell her what happened with his brother, this should be funny. Can ya tell we are all night people? :)

Sweet Dreams Fockers!
 
Hi Kat. The movie was ok. I am more of an action/adventure movie type person but I wasn't the one who picked it. IMO it's more of a movie that I would watch on a Sunday afternoon while napping. LOL

Angels & demons looks good. I read the book a few years ago after I read the davinci code. The book rocked though I liked the davinci code better.

KC sounds like a wonderful husband. :hug:

Sorry to hear, Rosie! Lots of hugs from me!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I thought I posted on Friday, but I don't see my post.

T - Love your dining reservation choices. I read there is a new restaurant opening in DTD, but I can't remember the details.

Janet - love those pics of Jimmy! Soooo cute!

I see Jo is pulling the trampoline out.

Nothing new here, accept I had ants in my kitchen yesterday. I'll have to call the exteriminator Monday and have them come spray around the house.
 
Good morning! :goodvibes

:hug: to Judy, Rosie.

Mitch is the one right behind Chip's bed. ;)

Oh, Rosie. :hug: to her.

Thanks. And our tball keeps score and counts outs. We actually had one kid strike out today.

I have to think that would at least not be as excrutiatingly boring. :rotfl:

They need to go back to work and school;)

::yes:: School tomorrow! D's out on Tuesday for just a 2-dayer. :thumbsup2 :rotfl2:


Cute movie. Jimmy really liked it.

::yes:: I liked it - my kids did, too!

Here are the T-Ball pictures.

Very nice! :) I need to get mine off the camera.

Anyways, i thought you'd all get a good laugh at the silliness of the story. I'm off to catch up on my threads.

:eek: How old is he??? 2? ;)

Sounds like a good day. Does Jimmy just hit off the tee or does the coach do a combo? With Lindsey the coach picthes 3-4 times and then they pull out the tee.

Last year we started off the T, but by the end of the season, they were doing coach-pitch (not by the rules, but it helped...)

He's about to call his mom and tell her what happened with his brother, this should be funny. Can ya tell we are all night people?

Will she think it's funny, or does she think his brother is reasonable? ;)

Ugh. I've not seen any yet - the guy from Terminix asked me last week, but I was able to report no. I guess they're bad all over this year. :confused3

Mitch is the one right behind Chip's bed. ;)

Gosh, don't you wish you could be there? ;) How's he (and you) doing? How much longer?

****************************************************
I tried to log on last night, but the DIS was down and then it messed up my UserCP, so that's why my quotes were out of order. I had to backtrack a page when people starting commenting on stuff I'd missed! :rotfl2:

We had fun at the gym. We ate with my really good friend, her DH, and a woman from her tennis team and the DH. The kids watched "Hotel for Dogs" which was great, as they'd wanted to see it, but none of them had. :thumbsup2

We were home by 9:00, but that was still a late night for the kids by the time they got ready for bed... The baseball practice this morning worked out to just at "time to get up for school" time, so I guess it was good to try to get back to it. Tonight, though, they will likely head to bed a good 1 1/2 -2 hours earlier. :thumbsup2

I got up to help get them out the door, but D took them as it's only practice. I have come to feel that I don't need to go sit on a chair at practice. D helps coach. I'll go to all the games, of course, but... If he's home, he's taking them to practice. ::yes::

I took the dog on a nice long walk - I need to get back to some kind of diet/exercise routine - and had breakfast and caught up here.

I may work the crossword, or I may take advantage and go back to sleep! :rotfl:

Hope everyone has a nice morning! I'll be in and out - I have no idea if we're doing anything once they return at 10:15 or so. :grouphug:
 
It's like our baseball, but it's really little kids, so instead of hitting a ball that's thrown to them, they hit it off a giant tee (like your golf tee :thumbsup2.)
Thanks :rotfl2:

Where is Cat COra's place going to be?
Where Spoodles is now!

T Ball went really well. Jimmy had fun and he participated:yay:
Fantastic and great photos!

His brother FLIPPED OUT. Over a text message. Screaming on the phone about respect and how KC is "getting too big for his britches". It was hilarious but it really upset KC. It's just the way his bro is about everything, and it made for a cranky KC because his bro wouldn't even talk on the phone about it, he was so bent out of shape.
Sounds like KC was right!!!

:thumbsup2 Do you have Mother's Day in England?
Yep it's in March, not sure why yours is different? Ours is dictated by the Church calendar!

Really Bad night here !! Judy is not doing well at all !! I am really worried about her !! think she' s filing for divorce next week!! Can't go into many details ! But lots of HUGS needed !!!
Oh Rosie I'm sorry big hugs to Judy and to you too :hug:

Thanks Jo. Mother's day is May 10th here. DH is working hard this time because he has my bday, Mother's day and our anniversary all within 3 weeks! I am so spoiled....
Let us know when your Birthday is, we know each others due to FB and wouldn't want to miss yours :goodvibes

IMO it's more of a movie that I would watch on a Sunday afternoon while napping. LOL

Wow I couldn't live like that :rotfl2:


Jess didn't go to sleep till 5.30am at her sleepover so we're having a lazyish day, also there is lots of sport on. David has been to work this morning so I suppose deserves a rest!

I get the feeling that my pressie is a bathrobe from the castle :yay:
 
HI Fockers, I'm Baaaaack!

So the last few weeks have been crazy, I need to go find a Kristel update to get caught up here....


So I think I posted we had a layoff a few weeks ago, well I ended up with a new boss under the re-org and I am soooo not happy, the guy is an arrogant SOB, just makes decisions with no input and not really understanding the situation. I have been taking on more clients and have found out my client load is increasing 6x. Yep, I have will 6 times as many as I did last year, and I get 2 more staff members, yeah, that will help. Nobody is happy and all are feeling completely overwhelmed. I just don't know how we are going to be successful.

I guess they figure with the job market in the tank people will stay put and they can get away with this.

Then I threw my back out. I think because my posture was off because of the way I was walking due to my foot I pulled the muscles on the right side upper back. At one point it took me 10 minutes to get out of bed:headache:

Foot is doing much better, but no one told me what happens when you have nerve damage and they start healing:scared1::scared1::scared1:

OMG!!!! FIRE!!!!!!! That's the only way to describe when the nerves start to heal. I mean it's good, but OMG! FIRE!

Then yesterday I had my youngest nieces first communion. NOw the brother that is her father DB2 is the opposite of a planner, which has always bugged me.

His wife mentioned in an email about a month ago that the communion was 5/2. Well I mentioned to Murph, who they never told, she's only the grandmother:rolleyes: and they never told my other brother DB1 and his family. So by the time DB1 found out it was too late for him and his family as they had other commitments so DB2 vents to me yesterday that he is upset that everyone didn't show up. :rolleyes1

So the mass was @ 11 and we were told lunch immediately following. Try an hour and half after mass:mad:. Now most us drove from some distance and had nothing to do. Murph and I sat in the parking lot of the restuarant for 45 minutes, they never invited anyone back to their house which is where they went.

Now at Easter DB1's wife had left a couple dishes at DB2's house as they were still being used when they had to leave and was told DB2 would bring them to the first communion (oh that's when it came out the no one told DB1 about the communion)

At the church Murph asks if he has them, no I forgot, I'll get them when I run home. At the restaurant as we are leaving and have a long drive home, Murph asks to get the dishes. OH, I don't have them, why don't you come back to the house and get them.

Well at that point I had it, he had been a jerk all day (ok most of his life, he has a nasty sense of humor that is just disrespectful to others) and I had had my fill. I let it rip, oh boy we had quite the show in the parking lot, not one of my shining moments but I was furious with how he had acted and rude at how he had treated the guests with the poor planning and then thought nothing of me driving out of the way to pick up the damn dishes.

He ended up telling, well, yelling at me not to dare come near his house so I got in the car (with Murph who didn't say a word, I think we scared her) and went home.

I thought long and hard last night and you know what...

I just don't like my DB2, I know that sounds awful, but he can be such an insensitive, inconsiderate jerk. ( I will say he is a good father and husband most of the time, very devoted, but the way he teases them I just can't tolerate). For instance with my niece yesterday, her b-day is this week too, so everyone had her communion gifts and b-day. He told her and I quote "because the leftist liberal running the country thinks that we are too rich for you to get any gifts, you have to give everything back":eek: She will be 8 years old, nice thing to hear, a little Mommy Dearest don't you think. But he thinks he is just being funny. I think I have a pretty good sense of humor, most of you know me well enough to know what my humor is and well, that is just not funny to me.

OMG, I think I just wrote a small novel, sorry to ramble on after being away for a few weeks.

I think I just needed to vent.


I hope all is well my dear Fockers, I truly love you guys and have missed you all:grouphug:

Oh and thank goodness I am leaving on vacation in 12 days!!!!!!

:hug::hug::hug: I'm sorry Rosie.


Thanks Lori:hug: Glad linds did great today.

Thanks. :goodvibes

I had a lazy morning before heading out to the tball field. Chi met me there and asked if I went by the school last night. i said yes. Her friend was there and was very excited that she had made the team and wanted to know if Chi did. So she asked me if I saw her name and I had to say no baby I didn't. However, here they also have a dance team that you just sign up for (no tryouts) so I reinforced to her that she could still do that if she wanted to. She seemed to be ok with it but she doesn't normally show her emotions in public anyway so things may be different when she comes home tomorrow. We will see.

Oh and we lost the game.

After the game we did some shopping at best buy and went out on a double date to see Ghosts of girlfriends past and went out to dinner.

Now we are watching SNL :rotfl2::rotfl2: OMG they just had an edible diaper commercial.

:hug: to Chi. Does she dance or do gymnastics? Hopefully she'll go for the dance team.

I want to see that movie as well but will have to wait until it comes out on DVD or PPV.


Nothing new here, accept I had ants in my kitchen yesterday. I'll have to call the exteriminator Monday and have them come spray around the house.

UGH! I hate ants! Hope you can get rid of them soon. And what a sweetie KC is. Hope the phone call went OK.


Mitch is the one right behind Chip's bed. ;)

Wow...that looks like no fun at all.

I missed it but where is he again? I'm assuming its with the National Guard?

I even did some trampolining last night :rotfl2:[/QOTE]

:rotfl2:

:thumbsup2


HI Fockers, I'm Baaaaack!

:wave2: Hi Mo! Glad to see your back. Work sounds rough, along with family, and vacation is probably sounding wonderful at this moment. Ouch to the foot and back! :hug:

***************************************************

Not much going on today. Linds is at church with my dad. I have some laundry to do and put away. Linds was supposed to have a t-ball game but was cancelled since they played them yesterday.

That's about it for me. Hope y'all have a good Sunday!

Jo! It's so unlike you to share that! :eek::rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2:

Cool!

I guess they figure with the job market in the tank people will stay put and they can get away with this.

I'm so sorry, Mo. :hug:

Then I threw my back out. I think because my posture was off because of the way I was walking due to my foot I pulled the muscles on the right side upper back. At one point it took me 10 minutes to get out of bed:headache:

It's OK, Mo. We know you're not nutty, so he must not be very nice. I'm sorry you have to deal with it. :hug: Sometimes we don't like the people we love, you know? :hug:
 
Ugh. No moving this week...
The sellers of our new house decided not to let us lease the house until the roof is replaced. It's not getting replaced until Thursday. Then we'll have to do the appraisal and get it through underwriting. We're not going to know when our buyers want to close until Tuesday, but we're hoping to get it all ironed out so we don't have to live in a tent for a while. :lmao:

Anyway... I'm going to eat ice cream. :lovestruc

Hey all. Busy and productive day here. Jim let me sleep until 9:00am:love: I got up, went to the grocery store, am doing laundry and also cleaned laundry. I think I deserve a Dis break :thumbsup2

Not much planned for the rest of the day. It's been raining all day and apparently it's going to be like this most of the week:headache: Jim has softball games Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and then on Thursday he has report card conferences. I have a meeting about the school Spring Fair on Thursday but I will bring Jimmy with me and Jim will pick him up on his way home. Busy week.
 
It could be fun you know, but not like I would know.:lmao:
Are you sure :rotfl2:

Rosie: So sorry to hear about what is going on at home. Things will get better! :hug::goodvibes

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Went up to Ottawa today for the Tulip Festival and to do a bit of shopping. Ended up with a new bathing suit that I look horrible in (it was the one I looked least horrible in :rotfl:) and two new shirts. We didn't end up staying in town too long as I wasn't feeling well and wouldn't you know as soon as I get home I feel better! :rolleyes: We ended up skipping the tulips at Parliament because I felt ill and now I wish we had stayed. Oh well, next year!

Here's a small sample of my pictures from today, I'll be posting the rest on Facebook so you can see them there if interested. ;)
