I'm up, mad as heck right now...but that will be remedied when DD returns and I take her keys away from her till she returns to school. It's a simple task.. you drive to school (3 minute drive) text me you arrived safely. You can't do that after telling me when you leave you that will do so..than as the rules have been clearly stated since Dec 1st.. you lose KEYS to your vehicle. She did text now to say she was returning home from practice.. However, I don't want any excuses.. it's not that hard to follow the rules.

Ok so today:

update 3 threads on scrapping board
index more of virtual scrapbook thread
sort photos into files specific(ugh, I should have done this long ago, but will do this for sure in 2010)
empty dishwasher
load dishwasher
run dishwasher
empty dishwasher
kids to clean rooms (ENOUGH SAID!, NO EXCUSES)
Scrap some more pages
await response on tutoring times (I wish people realized I have my family to and stop getting snippy with me, heck in a hand basket, I'm doing you the favor!)
order photos tonight


Ok, time to go... let's see what DD has to say... ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHH!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Christy;
Are you back online full time???

 

[party of 3]

roll call......

i'm here!

back to work. UGH!
mr. crocket is home with bubbalicious today!
i'm trying (real hard) to get some work done here. you should see my desk!
call home and check on boys
and tell them what i want for din din!
do some laundry when i get home.
really that's it.

i really do have a zillion things on my list, but too tired to do them today.

although i MUST find my christmas check from dad. i think i might have lost it. *snap*

Nan-good luck with DD. give her a little break. its the holidays. tell her auntie holl in rhode island said she used up her one free pass.

Christy- so nice to see you. i've missed you!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Holls, I'd give her the break, BUT it's her 2nd offense!!! She is still after an hour in her room pouting..and that is where she will stay. I did nothing wrong.. We set the rules done and we told her the consequences of not following through.

 

[joyah]

yep back on full time except for the hours I'll be working and running kids around.
It's so nice to sit on my couch and relax.

I'll trade you a pouting teenager for the puppy she's driving me up the wall right now, she's ticked cause tom and the boys left and she's stuck here. She's really going to be fit to be tied in 90 mins when I leave too.

 

[morgansmom2000]

I'm here! Working (well, I was). Princess is at my sister's house for the day. They were going grocery shopping and to McDonald's for lunch. I'm sure she'll hate the grocery store and then love McDonald's - such is life! She gets to hang with her cousin, so she'll be happy.

So glad to see you back, Christy! Missed you!

I'm tired as h-e-double hockey sticks today. I usually have a hard time shutting down after spending time with scrappy peeps - don't know why that is, but it is. So, I slept like crapola last night. I had a hard hard time getting my tookus out of bed this morning.

Hope everyone has a great day. It's supremely cold here today. I think they said something about possible flurries tomorrow and a possible MAJOR storm for the weekend...I could deal with another snowbound weekend!

 

[joyah]

I'm sending myself to the naughty mat after typing this.

I know you all hate the snow. but we need it. Tom's truck (plow) has been in the garage to the tune of 4 digits so turn on the snow machine please. I could use a good old fashioned big storm on the last day of the month for billing.
Cold doesn't begin to discribe the weather here. I'm NOT looking forward to leaving in a bit. at last check it was 2 degrees and the wind chill was a constent -18 the gusts well they were abt -35
Okay time to get theyself ready to roll.

 

[morgansmom2000]

I actually love the snow, at least if I'm home in it. I don't like driving in it, but I love love love being snowbound with my family!

ok. sorry.

I actually love the snow, at least if I'm home in it. I don't like driving in it, but I love love love being snowbound with my family!

snow storms are bittersweet for me. dh goes out to plow and i don't see him for days and i miss him but like the extra $ in the paycheck. so......

 

[PrincessNancy96]

ok. sorry.

Not your fault. She doesn't see where she did anything wrong.. after all it's her truck~ Uh, no sweetie that truck is title in your dad's name, he pays all fees on it, insurance (which doubled when we added you), plates, taxes, maintaince... So if you want it in your name alone.. no problem.. get a job, we'll sell it to you..and you can pay for what dad pays for.. She than threw another fit...
I told her driving is a PRIVILEGE all people have... it's NOT a RIGHT! That some get their license do stuff that gets it taken away, some don't get their license and don't mind that, but it's a priviliege that should be taken seriously...it's not a toy we are playing with its lives!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

Oh boy Nan, you have your hands full with that one today.

Tell her if she doesn't knock it off Uncle Blink will take her Mini away!

My to do list:
Get household binder organized for new year

Start Organization 101 for January

Rebecca

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Hi Rebecca! Hope you all are having a great time and visit!!


Buffy, it's getting better... I'll email you an email she sent me and my response! I didn't yell.. I just laid it out and keep my cool.. Seems to get her attention better...

 

[joyah]

Holly I know what you mean by being gone for days. Tom goes from plow truck to Tucker for the snowmobile trails so I really feel like I'm alone. there were 2 weeks last year I think I saw him awake for a total of 2 hours.!!!!!!!! but it's what his business is so I deal with it. My only gripe this year will be take the puppy she's not dealing well with her daddy being gone! I probably should have gotten her a seatbelt for christmas.

Nan I'm so not looking forward to those days. hang in there
