~The Daily Grind~ 5/13/10

It's the Day Before Friday!!

I asked to be switched to the good hosp today. It's a Heritage Lunch and I wanted to show my support for the sup there by making something... I'm going with my East Coast American heritage, and bring Peanut Butter Tandykake... tastes like the ones you get from Tastykake... I thought that was better than the Irish boiled potatoes and cabbage


Counting down till graduation...

Good morning! It's Thursday!! And the last "official" day of state testing. We have make-ups tomorrow,but that's it! 16 working days (counting today) til summer vacation!

Blythe had a good day yesterday. She does have a little hole in her heart (it has a name, but I can't remember right now). The doctor said it was common in babies born early. They will give her medicine to help it close, but it'll mean surgery if it doesn't close on its own. So, we are praying for the medicine to work for our little fighter! She's a week old today!

Here's my list for today:

1. Up
2. Caffeinate
3. Pack lunches
4. Wipe down both bathrooms
5. DS's stuff together
6. DS up
7. DS to mom's
8. Work--get thru list there
9. Tan
10. Pick up DS
11. Do lists for work
12. Walk with DS
13. Laundry
14. Send DH "please do" list
15. Make grocery list
16. Scrap 2 pages
17. Finish DVR'd show
18. Go to sleep sort of early!!

I hope everyone has an awesome Thursday!!

Good Morning!

Hope you have a good day, Deb! Your new strategy seems to be working - you don't seem quite as stressed?

Chilly 32 degrees here, but at least it's not snowing.

Plans for the day
Pool
Bank
breakfast
take old friend to the mountains to see her grandpa's old homestead
lunch - too cold for a picnic so must find some healthy choice and eat it
put the photos up to walgreens to print
dinner
scrap? or collapse!

Happy Day, all!

SIOH, you snuck in here while I was writing, <3 dust for Baby Blythe

 

[StitchIsOurHero]

Deb, yay for going to the good hospital! And your heritage food sounds right up my alley!!

I've got my annual **** squeeze this morning. Oh fun, oh joy! Although, Morgan was complaining that her throat hurt last night, she said it feels like she has strep again. I told her we'd see how she was this morning. She's still sleeping, but that may change my whole day.

So, it's all up in the air for now.

All I know is I need a cup of coffee big time, went to bed with a headache, woke up with it too.

Pixie Dust to Blythe!

Anything with peanut butter is my favorite, those sound delectable, Deb!

Good day to everyone!

 

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Deb, good luck on the transfer! And, YUM! on the PB cakes.

Brooke, lots of pixie dust for Blythe.

Jennifer, I hope Morgan feels better this morning. Good luck at the squeeze!

I'm working another long shift today and then running a couple of errands before I meet up with DH and we go to DS's chorus concert.

Have a great day everyone!

For Morgan and Blythe. SIOH, a good friend of my sister's son had heart surgery when he was a little thing too. He is now going on 10 and is an amazing kid. His parents throw this HUGE birthday party for him and ask that all gifts be donations to the hospital that did his heart surgery.

Get kiddos to school.
Go to Hoxworth to donate blood.
Go to Archiver's with my Mother's Day gift card.
Go to Michael's with the gift card a good friend sent me.

Pick up kiddo from school.

Dinner.

 

[morgansmom2000]

Well, I guess I'm getting squeezed. She seems fine. She has the first of two testing days today...I wonder if it's just nerves.

Pixie the bulk of us are on eastern time but we have a few from the western part of the states, AR TRM, Hopemax all come to mind. I know there are more but with the headache still pounding away they are eluding me.

Doesn't matter though cause you're up after I'm going to bed. I'm normally not a night owl except when the insomia kicks in.

 

[WDWMom]

On the bright side you're getting lots done. I'd rather sit here and play than work today. It's so strange to have the house to myself. It is so QUIET I'm just sitting here enjoying it.

 

[DisneyBarlans]

My youngest DS is graduating from Pre-K today. I just dropped him off for his last day at Preschool, and I'm getting ready for his class party. Then tonight they have the ceremony, cap & gown and all. He is so excited to be going to Kindergarten at the "big kid school" with his brothers. I've been having these random weepy mommy moments all day...doesn't seem like so long ago when I brought him home from the hospital and now he's getting so big. Is this how it is with everybody with your baby? I'm going to need a whole box of tissues for his first day of Kindergarten.
