Morning

Mel, you are awesome. 10.something miles yesterday and you're going back today? That's fantastic!

Busy day here...#1 has Lego this afternoon. While he's there I'll run to Lowe's to get plants for the neighbors parking spot and then hit Costco. We'll high-tail it home so I can feed the kiddos and then take the biggest to lacrosse practice.

I hope everyone has a great day!

 

[rachel3]

Sorry but huh????

sorry, that was a bit confusing. let me try again. .... a patient came into the ER in a car accident. he was drinking alcohol and highly intoxicated. since i took care of him, i have to go to court to testify.

Where'd did everybody go? Early update tonight.

Good morning!

I'm going to the gym again this morning. Just wanted to pop in and say HI first though!

morning mel . have fun at the gym.

[
Got my Mammogram at 10:00 then have to run by the "Notary" and get some papers signed. Clean house a bit and sort laundry.

good luck with the mammogram. the whole squishy thing freaks me out!!

We could go to DTD Sunday and Monday evening. I think I would rather just stay home.

what!!!???

Morning All!


Have a great day, everyone!

hi rosie!

3. When I'm home every day, I tend to sleep alot. Since starting the medication and getting into counselling I am way more aware that these are the activities of a DEPRESSED person. Forcing myself to go out among the people keeps me mentally healthy. I think.


MEL

are you feeling better???

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Good morning!

I'm going to the gym again this morning. Just wanted to pop in and say HI first though!

One week till my trip. I'm excited and a bit nervous.... I have alot to do still and I haven't even started!

What is everyone doing today?

MEL

I know how you feel. I'm sure there's a lot I should do before we leave Friday, but I can't just pull out suitcases and pack in case someone calls for a visit. I do think I'm going to pull them out today and pack them as best I can, then put them away so I don't have so much to do Sunday night.
I'm scared I'm going to forget things...

Uh. I don't know.
1. I don't own a scale. I hate them, they hate me. Mutual hate. I just go by the simple tenant:
If I can't button the 18's, it's time to stop getting fries with my chicken sandwiches.

2. I am mostly going to the gym because I believe that phyiscal exercise is good for you. I don't really care if I lose weight (I'm not hung up on that) but I do care if my heart is healthy. Of course, one follows the other, so I guess I will eventually.....

MEL

Good for you, Mel. I think you're addicted to group showering, but if that's your story...

Good luck with your mammy, Katt.

Yeah, Jodi! I'm glad everyone's healthy again!

Good morning, Kate.
Good morning, Rachel.

Mary- You're kidding, right? Just go and chill out. I'd love a little time away from everyone. But only for a day or two because I'd miss them too much.

[Miz Diz]

Hey Slate!
Hey Janet!
Hey everyone!

 

[ncsjodi]

Well, I thought we were all better, but now DH is home sick. He's coughing a lot. I'm just trying to stay away from him so that I don't catch anything! Of course, moms don't get sick days, do we?

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Yuck, Janet. I hope your day goes better.

 

[PrincessV]

Morning all! Had a dental appt. this morning and just got to work. Traffic is freaking INSANE!!!

I never had a chance to write a note to Leo's teacher. Last night was riding lesson night, and I ran out of time. I did get some much-needed sleep though, thank goodness!

Nothing else new. Just digging in to work - lots of writing to do today. TTYL!

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Bummer, Jodi. I hope you can avoid the germs!

Focker help needed!
I'm packing and I am so overwhelmed with everything I feel like I'm missing something. In my little carry to the parks bag, what do I HAVE to have? I don't want to haul things I don't need.
Right now I have a tiny sunblock, chapstick, the three autograph books, a black clicker sharpie, a tiny stain removing pen, gum, Kirt's RPDE card, and my bday gift card print out thingy to get into the parks free that day. I plan on adding my id, cell, my confirmation numbers and our park passes. I think that's everything, right?

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Happy Birthday, Kristi!!!

​

Any special plans for today?

 

[Muffinygood]

Mel, you are awesome. 10.something miles yesterday and you're going back today? That's fantastic!

Frankly, I think YOU are awesome! You and Dawn, both. I don't know how you manage to homeschool that many kids, do all the activities you do and still be sane. Thanks for the props though. It feels good!

are you feeling better???

Yes! I feel TONS better. Thanks. Hope the subpeona isn't a huge hassle!

I know how you feel. I'm sure there's a lot I should do before we leave Friday, but I can't just pull out suitcases and pack in case someone calls for a visit. I do think I'm going to pull them out today and pack them as best I can, then put them away so I don't have so much to do Sunday night.

Good for you, Mel. I think you're addicted to group showering, but if that's your story...

Right, I am only there for the group showers.
Don't tell anyone
Stop stressing about the trip! Make a list for each kid. And one for you.
Period.

5 Days!!!! ​

Seven Days!!

hello everyone

Hi Slate!

Mel - WTG on the 10 something miles!

I am sure I missed because my frain is bried!

Chat with you all later

Sorry your frain is bried! Poor Janet!
Thanks on the WTG.

Hey Slate!
Hey Janet!
Hey everyone!

Hey Miz!

Well, I thought we were all better, but now DH is home sick. He's coughing a lot. I'm just trying to stay away from him so that I don't catch anything! Of course, moms don't get sick days, do we?

Nooooooooooooooooooo! Sorry DH is sick. Hope he doesn't infect you!

Morning all! Had a dental appt. this morning and just got to work. Traffic is freaking INSANE!!!
TTYL!

Hi V! Traffic worse because the vacationers are there?

I think that's everything, right?

Bandaids, hand sanitizer or wipes and gum. (They don't sell it at WDW)

Happy Birthday, Kristi!!!

​

Any special plans for today?

Dude, cool smiley pic but isn't Slate's bday tomorrow? (that's what FB says)

*****************
I am home from the gym. I did 10.7 miles on the bike today! YAY me! I am so proud of myself. I think that if I can keep this up I might actually get to a place where I LIKE exercise. (And not just the showering...LOL Dawn!)

I stopped at the grocery store on the way home. I am making Belgian Waffles with strawberries and veggie sausage for dinner tonight. Yum. Hope you guys are enjoying the day. I have a coffee from McD's and I'm going to chill for a bit.

Oh no! Stay well, Jodi

Snow birds should be leaving soon, right? I'm glad you got some sleep.

Who is in charge of the camera?

Frankly, I think YOU are awesome! You and Dawn, both. I don't know how you manage to homeschool that many kids, do all the activities you do and still be sane. Thanks for the props though. It feels good!

Thanks, Mel. I didn't realize how much I needed to hear that today.

***********************
Time for me to skeedadle. I'll check in tonight and see how everyone is doing.

 

[HomeschoolMama]

I'd rather homeschool 3 more kids than exercise, so I'm proud of you!

Right, I am only there for the group showers.
Don't tell anyone

Period.

It just feels weird that I'm not stressing too much and that I haven't got it all outlined... I'm trying to relax and just chill, though.

Seven Days!!

Bandaids, hand sanitizer or wipes and gum. (They don't sell it at WDW)

I have gum, but I'd better grab some wipes at the store later. Thanks.

Dude, cool smiley pic but isn't Slate's bday tomorrow? (that's what FB says)

Shut up! I didn't read the top part that says tomorrow. I saw V wished her a happy birthday and then saw that she was here and no one said anything, so I went overboard trying to make her feel special. I posted here, on FB, then sent her a gift on PS.

MEL

Ugh. I need to go to the store, but I don't want to... I've got everyone packed for the most part, other than hubby.

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Band-aids, really? You guys get hurt a lot?

Camera! Yes!!! The camera and camcorder with batteries... Thanks, Kate!!!

I'm 25 and I travel with a first-aid kit-I'm clumsy. In '07 I was waiting for a show in Tomorrowland, and a toddler ahead of me took a tumble. The parents were debating whether to go to first aid, when I swooped in with my band-aids.
