Team Focker Watch - Version 8: When V's Away.. The "Katt" will Play

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

Mel - that sucks about the anxiety, as you know I suffer from it too at random times. I usually have troubles with it late at night causing me to not sleep vs the waking up with it that you suffer from. Could the anxiety be caused by your eye issues, do this happen more often when you have appointments coming up?

Morning! Just another day in Paradise... we're looking at an unseasonal high of 80 today!


But.


I'm stuck in an office all freaking day. Pfffft.


So, Leo came back from his dad's last night and this morning asks me, "Mommy - are you tired of me?" Is that about the saddest thing you've ever heard? I asked where he'd gotten such an idea and he didn't have an answer. I just hugged hard and told him I'm never tired of him - I want him around always!


Hugs all around - here's to a good Tuesday!

According to my GPS, 36 hours!!! He's smokin' crack, dude.

That's 36 hours without making any stops, right?

Nothing, I'm just clownin' ya!

Great, make me paranoid

No I will be student teaching at Head Start. I was going to start way back around Thanksgiving. My job couldn't find someone to fill in my hours. Now they have no choice. I have to start teaching next week, since that is when the actual class for me starts. Since they didn't get someone to cover my hours weeks ago, I have to do a lot of hours at Head Start each week. This leaves them trying to cover even more of my hours at work. I will have to fit in to 7 weeks what I wanted to do over 11 weeks. Is this any clearer now?

Got it!

If you look at it on FB you can get a bigger pic of it to see the lettering better.

Love it, and I'm sure you mom is going to love it!

I've sat here dying my hair catching up on stuff, OK I've been watching my new Mom friends videos. Isn't it funny how the internet gets you so friendly so quickly, they're just like all of you in the fact that I class them as really good friends

Just remember you knew us first

Holy Hannah, it has been one crazy night at work. First I got hit by a campus wide power outage that lasted for 3 hours and resulted in my having to sort through over 300 alarms and a bazillion phone calls. Then once the power came back on we got a call about a huge steam leak in one of the residences. We had to evacuate the students, the ceilings were buckling from the water and the door frames were hot to the touch. OMG I am so glad I have the next two days off to recover!

Sounds like a rough night Lessa

Well, no delay today, so finally we're to "normal"!!! Of course it will only last today - they are talking 4-8 inches of snow tonight with 1/4 to 1/2 inch of ice on top - fun! Perhaps days of power loss again! Woohoo!!!!


See, I'm being positive!

As the song goes...Always look on the bright side of life!

It's official, I broke it.

SO, anyway!
Tonight I think we'll have burgers. Why the heck not? It's only 15 degrees out. Why NOT fire up the grill!

Makes perfect sense to me

Funny little story or at least to me and my warped mind.

My mom was over the other day and points to something on the coffee table and asked if it is a piece of poop. I look and sure enough it looks like a tiny piece of cat poop. I go over and realize it is just a coco puff that my son dropped while snacking. I tell him it is a coco puff but tell grandma yes to her question and then pop it in your mouth. He does and my mom about fainted. Ds and I laughed and told her what it was.

Just a quick note to say I am up and heading to Tink's school for drop off and a meeting. We'll see how much of my normal activities I can do without over extending myself. I am feeling much better, but still have a tough time breathing and am somewhat exhausted.

Wish me luck! Be back later to catch up.

Hi Jen, don't over do it!

Instead, I'll workout by carrying the vacuum cleaner up and down the stairs and carrying sheets and towels to and from the washer, etc. while cleaning my house! How's that for creative exercise?

========================================================

Good morning everyone. We are supposed to get sleet and snow this afternoon, just in time to make the drive home take FOREVER At work, not much going on otherwise.

HAve a great day everyone

Would his Dad have "planted" that kind of a thought in his head ??
Then said that was "just between us two men ?" ... I Hope Not V

I have two friends that split up about 4 years ago... I am STILL friends with Both.. and they know that... When their kids have been with me ( 1 boy 1 girl) they said BOTH PARENTS silently ambush the Other Parent to them .

He is planning to remarry this year.. and I am suspicious that he may ask for full custody of the boy. Instead of the Joint they currently have.

Aw,

It's a good question Katt, and I honestly don't know the answer. Thinking of the man I thought I knew for the 8+ years we were married, I'd say "no way." But he's done and said a LOT of things I never thought him capable of since then, so who knows?

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Oh, and V?...it's not working 'cause I broke it.

I agree. Presents can be sent here too! And Mary would probably accept them as well!!

 

[PrincessV]

HAPPY SMITH DAY!

Is that anything like Bush's response when asked why we hadn't yet found Bin Laden? Bush: "Because he's hiding."

 

[sorul82?]

Jo, you have a grill in your oven?

Thanks for not laughing.. and yes he is a cutie... however at my age... I need something a little a bit more mellow...

BOTH WERE BORN IN KENTUCKY YA KNOW....

Yeah nobody was hurt or anything, just major water damage to part of one of the residences and major annoyance and stress for me.

The power outage happened at exactly 01:42am, I know because I was in the middle of watching Gossip Girl when the lights in all the rooms around me went off and then the alarm computer started ringing like crazy and I started to get bombarded with calls telling me the power was out, thanks I kinda figured that out on my own! Lucky for me I am the most important person on campus so I never lose power as I run off a generator plus the main power supply so while everybody else is in the dark I have full power. The power outage wasn't even the universities fault, one of the cities transformers blew.

The whole steam/water thing happened at 6am after power had been restored for a whole hour. Basically they evacuated the students on the floors effected down to the main lounge until they could get the steam and water shut off, then all but a few were allowed back to their rooms, those not allowed back had to wait a few hours as their rooms were where most of the water collected in the ceiling and they didn't want to risk injury should the ceiling give out.


I shouldn't complain, most nights my job is super easy but then nights like this come around where all hell breaks loose. I am just lucky it wasn't a weekend or I would have been having to deal with drunk students and medical assists on top of all that!

At least you still had power...that is the most important thing!

Seriously, glad no one was hurt...at least you had a bit of excitement for the night!

Morning! Just another day in Paradise... we're looking at an unseasonal high of 80 today!

Go ahead, rub it in. It is 30 and we are expecting an ice storm tonight!

Katt asked and you answered the question I was gonna ask. I hope your ex doesn't wind up to be that much of a jerk!

Stay safe, Janet

Thanks Kate

Whatever works!

Thank you very Much V

I was going to ask the same question. At first I thought it was Orlando Bloom, but its not!
