I don't like Mondays! So far the wrist is feeling better, we'll see how it is after 5 hours of work. I've got to stop at CVS and see if they can fill the prescription I got for a brace this afternoon, and I've got to call the doctor and see if he can write me a prescription for a *different* allergy med, since BC/BS won't cover my Allegra and I'm feeling allergy oogy already today! We also need milk and bread, and I think I'll go to Joann's, just because I wanna!

Morgan's off to school, we don't have anything tonight, and I think softball will be canceled because of rain tomorrow. We do have Brownies tomorrow afternoon, so it would be nice to have tonight and tomorrow night off, since I have to glue 50 owls for Girl Scout SWAPS for Encampment, oy!

Hope everyone has a good day!

Hilarious, Holly!

Oy, what a weekend. DH's boss is going wonky (again) and making our lives miserable, so DH is pretty confident he is going to leave and start his own law firm. I think I am going to throw up. AND I am most likely going to have to go to work. UGH. I'm not excited about that one.

Sorry about the problems with DH's boss Ashley. I hope that things work out well in any decisions he makes.

[aroyer]

Thanks y'all. His boss is just all over the place. He's so irrational. He freaks out about money and says things he shouldn't (he shouldn't have hired DH and their paralegal, he's lowering salaries, etc.). When all he really needs to do is realize that he's not doing his part - he has 4 cases to DH's 40 cases, he bills half of what DH bills- but he would rather blame everyone else in the office and take his problems out on everyone else.

 

[aroyer]

OMG Nan, bubba asked why he can't wear a tux??!! are ya kiddin' me i said!!!
you don't own a tux! well, why not he wants to know!!!! OMG it's so been a morning!

Sounds like Bubba needs a tux Holly!

 

[party of 3]

so right before i put him on the bus I just had to ask(because he was still chatting about it!!)....

J-why in the world do you need a tux??

and his reply....

Mumma, James Bond wears one!

well J- your not James Bond your J...A....!!!!

he's killin' me today!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Does he need a license too?
I like the new James Bond. Didn't think I would, but I do. Just watched the last one the other day.

 

[morgansmom2000]

Tee hee, James Bond has one

Well, this one will be sitting around collecting dust after August.. So you can borrow it! It's a size 10!
I bought it on ebay for $20.00 brand spankin' new!!!

Didn't he do this just last year and your DH already took a pay cut... No way should he do that again. Especially with his work load! I hope every thing works out and you all discuss all options. Sounds like DH has a good head on his shoulders...maybe he should be the one owning that law firm and kick the "owner" out because he is clueless!

He flip flops on the salary- he says he is cutting salaries, so we start trying to figure out budget, where we can cut, etc. and then he says, no we are fine, we won't cut. I just wish he would keep these thoughts to himself until he makes a decision. Ugh. We are hashing out all kinds of options and I'm completely overwhelmed. Thank y'all for letting me vent- y'all are the BEST.
