[mickey4ver]

Ok, ok, I'm doing what I do......not that I want to Morning

I'm tired, too late for ballgames on TV.....bah humbug anyway

I have a coaching session with the office manager this morning, so not sure what time that will be, so I'll drop in either before or after....now how is that for clear and concise

No heat here yet, in fact, had fan on in my bedroom last night...the upstairs stays warm when we have steady sun all day...sorry it is cold out your way already mac......makes winter seem looooooonnnnngggg for you

morning

dragging DH to drs for checkup this am; he wants to know why he has to go & I haven't gone for 2 years...because I'm the mommy & I said so (wrong answer but, it's the only one I could think of...after Xmas for sure )

mac - i envision chicago's weather to be similar to the north pole . It's going to 77 here tomorrow . I don't plan on turning on our furnace until Thanksgiving if i can get away with it. I run "hot"; usually keep the BR window open a crack all winter anyway.

mic - what the heck is a "coaching session" going over the signs to steal home; all these weird business terms...why don't they just saw what they mean? They're lucky to have you Did you watching Dancing with the Stars? nobody moved me; hope they step it up.

Believe it or not...after all the s were dealt with ....

::cop: DS works his 1st shift this weekend (part-time); yet a start! already starting to feel rather ill @ the thought.hard to let go & let them be grownups

morning all!

 

[mickey4ver]

Here I am already, don't want to start work

A coaching session is just that, she coaches me on my strengths and weaknesses, we can be-it ch about things. The problem I have is she is SO far from perfect and makes LOTS of mistakes, I find it hard to take even constructive concritism from her very well...and her way is not always in that way, but accusatory in nature. She herself is being coached to treat us girls not so nastily, but that is whole nother story.

Yep, those temps are supposed to be here also...now we get Indian Summer.

I know how your dh feels KS, I don't like going to the doctor until it's necessary, which for me it finally happened...now I'm bombarded with a slew of tests, but I need to find out why I feel bad, so be it. I wish him well today and hope his check up is a good one And tell him Mom always knows best (even if we don't always take our own advice )

Forgot to tell you guys (well I think I forgot) ds#2 and girlfriend have applied to lease an apartment. So he maybe gone by late Novemer. I'm not so awfully torn up about it as he will only be 15 miles away. I think it will be good for him and it is right behind where he works, so he less commute and will be very close to the college also. He and gf both got promotions at their jobs, he paid off his car and they feel they are ready. I am old-fashioned at heart, but I realize things are much different in the world today, so I need to look the other way and just hope they are happy with their choices. And have I said I'M EXCITED that Friday is on it's way

Hope Ed is enjoying himself....where are some of our MIA's......Bob must really be having fun being the SAHD as we hardly see him. Pam, got lots of kiddies today? Momma, still helping the teach...Mac, sorry they razzed you about not working, tell them to get a life....... Gant, stop in, we miss you.

morning all....it is tuesday again.

have a doc appointment this morning so won't be around until later this afternoon.


keisha..........did you say your son is now a cop?
if so, that is fantastic. when did this all happen?





i bought a plane ticket to go away for a bit.
now i have to get a car rental and hotel.


yes, it is not warm here.
when i lived in the st louis area, we didn't turn the ac off until end of sept.
furnace wasn't on then.

i like the warmer weather so much better

 

[keishashadow]

keisha..........did you say your son is now a cop?

only PT, took every political favor I had to make it finally happen was supposed to start over a year ago, better late than never!

so now he'll be working 4 part time jobs, only one of them is full-time; hope he doesn't burn out. I did it for years too...not much fun.

i bought a plane ticket to go away for a bit.
now i have to get a car rental and hotel.

gone for over 2 weeks & leaving us again - jk hope drs goes well


DH has a bad headache, he gets so upset when dr. finds even the smallest thing that could use improvement & gives him an Rx hope he doesn't start with the migranes that rest of his family get. We were supposed to go to lunch before he goes to work...all dressed up & nowhere to go.

mic - yeech to review & Ms. Be-auch too. Congrats to DS It's a 1st step in the right direction...who knows, wedding bells may be just around the corner. I wasn't too thrilled when oldest DS co-habitated for 6 months before wedding either.

 

[mickey4ver]

Quickie before I finish up this pile of crap on my desk...

meeting went ok, same old stuff, just another day

Congrats to son KS, I meant to say that before and forgot..

Mac, buy me a plane ticket too, someplace warm, with sand, beach chairs and palm trees please.....

KS, did you get that lunch out? I hope so

 

[Bob Slydell]

Still dancing from last night

And I might be going to Game 4 tonight (DW went last night and is going Thursday, but might be giving me her tix for tonight to go with a neighbor).

 

[keishashadow]

bob - hope you got "lucky" ; what a run your team has going.

mic - no lunch for me, DS looked horrible; not sure if he's getting sick or not. He insisted on going to work this evening. While he snoozed, I did manage to run out & pick up a few things for cruise . everytime i look at my "rags" i feel that they're just not right.

OK gals: Fashion police question -

when rummaging thru my closet I came across 2 different "velvet-like" dresses. Wonder if they'd be appropriate for beginning of Dec. in the tropics? Is there some sort of rule (as in no white after Labor Day - although i think for resort wear that's thrown out the window too?)

It's was mighty cold in dining room same time last cruise. #1 is the one i wore to DSs wedding, #2 is a princess style column dress that laces up with silk cord in back & comes above ankles (wore to wedding few years ago)...WWYD?

 

[mickey4ver]

Have fun at the game Bob...seems the Injuns' are on a roll....

KS, I say wear the dresses...if you feel comfortable in them and you like them, go for it

Sorry dh is feeling bad...

Dinner out at Longhorn was great...I had a salad, steak and rice...very yummy

 

[pkasbohm]

Morning all!

 

[keishashadow]

it's hump-de-dump day

steak sounds good, yum; i had yogurt & wheat thins for dinner (they make a roasted tomato & cheddar cheese variety now ); just couldn't face a hamburger; whipped up the tacos for tonight @ the same time while the pan was dirty.

dh still ill'in; must be a bug; natch probably caught it @ drs office

stupid, dropped a plate in dishwater & broke handle off my fav. coffee mug that youngest DS bought years ago @ Disney Store. They seem to keep their stock forever anymore; maybe i'll get lucky & find the same one...2 hr RT to only site in area.

 

[mickey4ver]

Morning........my bummy baseball team has me depressed I might jump off a cliff..........

Went and had my upper GI test this morning, went very quick, but I tell ya, the prep when I got there....had to swallow this little cup of crystals with a dropper of water then drink a cup of sludge and the WORST part, I had to roll over not once but twice on this hard **** table...heck, I have trouble rolling over in bed let alone on an exam table..then laying on my side had to drink through a straw more crap, then be stood up, turn left, turn right..and finally swallow a pill.....but it's over and only took about 15 minutes once my insides were mixed up enough. Radiologist said he see's signs of hietal hernia from having had acid reflux over the years.......now I need to wait to see what the doctor says/thinks after getting results...just glad it's over and I'm not DRINKING ANYMORE STUFF FOR ANYMORE TESTS.......EVER.......YA HEAR ME

Ok, got work to do......yes dinner was nice last night, but ya know, spending all day with the OM and then having to do dinner with her too is a little much, but heck, it was a meal compliments of the owner....and I never turn down a good meal

 

[Bob Slydell]

Morning all

Quick pop-in before I head off for a nap. Didn't get home until 1am last night -- but the lack of sleep was oh-so worth it!!

 

[macraven]

a quick drive by.

here is one pic with the the disers i met up with for mnsshp on my trip to the motherland.

pic is blurry but the guy that was taking them ran out of rum.
giving credit where it is due.


if i find more, i'll include them on my trippie.

 

[macraven]

mic, just catching up on the posts here.


my dad had surgery for his hiatel hernia. it is not worth it.
he did good at first but 6 months later surgery was not sucessful.

one of my brothers has the same condition. he controls his by diet and some meds.



think twice before you do surgery for it if your doctor suggests it.





aren't you glad no more chalk to drink.......

 

[mickey4ver]

Afternoon my friends...I'm feeling rough this afternoon, my problem that got me to the specialist is kicking up today and I'm so just wanting to lay down...only an 1.5 to go...so I'll survive

Mac, I was reading online about the hernia's, and there apparently is a laproscropic surgery for the condition. But until results etc. get back to my doctor, I really won't know what the problem is or what he wants to do. And he may wait til I have the endoscopy and colonscopy in Nov. to decide. I just know I hope something showed on the cat scan so he can do something to help when I get the discomfort I'm having. Something is causing it, that's for sure. Everything is hurry up and wait also...such is life. Thanks for the info though, I'm always interested in what other people have had done and if it helped or not.

I love the pic, everyone looks happy. You are looking so thin!! Great photo

Bob, I bet last night was exciting for you! Glad you had fun and the team you want to win WON...that makes it even more fun. Nothing like a good rousing bunch of fans to make for a fun evening. Off tonight and tomorrow night should be your big finale....and I admit, if Cleveland wins, I will desert my league and root for the Rockies....

Ok, got some work to try and do........enjoy your afternoon....

where are the rest of the gang today

 

[macraven]

where are the rest of the gang today

yea, what mic says...........where are U ????

 

[keishashadow]

DH came thru today....

out to lunch (Eat n Park)....

had the buffet (soup & salad)....

spent the rest of afternoon in the bathroom (i've got a rumbly in my tummy)

mic - eek, sorry to hear they found anything; do your research & get a 2nd opinion. Ma had her gall bladder taken out a few years ago, they found hernia & gave her a BOGO. She takes prevecid daily, no major issues (other than a whopper of a cold she managed to develop-poor thing).

mac - more pics ? take your time, i've got plenty of time.

decided i need (well, want) a new piece of luggage, the folding thing that holds suits, etc.? any ideas where to look online, going to check ebags. I don't want a heavy one, just one to hold up thru the baggage handlers.
