Still haven't got anywhere with my bank issue. I have called the police, they told me I need to go back to the bank.
The Credit Union is clueless and don't know how to handle it. Let's just say I might not remain my nice, happy understanding self.

Things might get ugly.
UGGGH, I really need to go to work in the morning though. This is a royal PITA.
I am sorry to keep coming here and gripping.
Sending prayers,

to all of you.
gripe away.. I really hope they can get off their butts and get all of this figured out and FAST
Bernadette - THANK YOU for the DVD! I'll get a check in the mail to you tomorrow. And by the way, the DVD is MAGIC! Let me explain...
The phone guy called me at 5:40 PM and said he was pulling up to my building. I wasn't home but DH was here. Phone guy calls back to clarify our building and unit #. Phone guy calls one more time to say he found the problem and he can't fix it.

He goes on to tell me IF they had gotten to it earlier in the day it would be fixed. Nothing like a little salt in the wound. He says it will be fixed tomorrow by 8 AM. Whatever. So I watched the DVD, exited out of the program, and BAM! my DSL came back up!

So now it is working just fine. Bizarre. But I'm not complaining!
see that not even in disney and you get the magic !! glad things are working again .. and i'm sorry about your cap AGAIN .. hopefully you'll get a call back that the new one is in faster then you got a call back from your primary .. Good luck
I got Emma's Nintendo at lunch and her Mickey Clubhouse Plane on the way home from work yesterday so she's nearly done for Christmas. I ordered Lizzy's AG stuff so she's all set too.
I was asking Joe what he wanted and he couldn't think of anything. I showed him the
Lego website but he didn't seem too interested. I was thinking of getting him the Lego airport but he didn't seem to care about it. He was mildly interested in the Sponge Bob stuff but I don't care for that stuff as much (I know its not for me.....). So now I'm thinking about a monorail for him but I'm not sure if they are worth the money.
Last year all he wanted was an Irish Flag but he got a Nintendo and an Irish Flag.
Way to go .. the only "christmas stuff" i've picked up so far were a few pairs of jeans and tops for each of the kids .. the toys i have to hold off till last minute because these to like to "treasure hunt" last year they had found all of their toys by the 2 week mark .. i swear i need to rent storage space just to keep them out of their presents lol
I shouldn't have figured out how to check my children's grades on the computer

Let's just say the lesson that I thought Cassidy learned last year wasn't learned.
I am a bit stressed in work and outside of work due to some poor choices we made the last few months.........when will I learn???
Sorry, just had to let that out.
I really hope everything starts to turn around and straighten out.
Boy, do I know that feeling! I'm trying to tackle our own mountain of unused toys while the kids are in school. I just take a few things at a time, and deliver them to the thrift store. So far, so good. The kids have not noticed anything missing.
that's my rainy day project .. and here's the kicker .. the kids help lol .. rainy days we dump the toy boxes .. they find toys they haven't seen in a while .. and what ever they don't play with on that day goes in a bag or a box it's either trash or yard sale .. to get RJ a llittle more on the page with this idea i told him that what ever money he makes from his toys at the yard sale .. he can either buy one big toy .. or he can keeps saving it up and when we move we'll pay so much for a swing set and whatever he has he can maybe get the next bigger one .. that's was music to his ears .. over the last 2 years he's saved up about 20 bucks .. i really hope he doesn't go for the one big toy with all that money lol .. i don't think my house will be big enough lol
Hope you have fun picking apples and pumpkins, Heather. I know you will all miss RJ, so I hope you can work it out to take him when he returns. That blog is hysterical, isn't it?
thanks Elin, and sorry i got your girls mixed up when i was posting .. she is totally hysterical i had lost her blog for a while but found it again last night and i sat here reading and reading and reading and butch swore i was losing it .. " what on earth are you laughing for" must have come out of his mouth every 5 minutes lol she's a real hoot
Morning DDA!

Guess what???
ONE YEAR TO OUR WEDDING!!!!
(Sorry! Had to change things up a bit!

)

h everyone--i caught up real quick but need to get to work early for a meeting..so hyave a great day!

have a great day .. and just think ... TOMORROW'S FRIDAY !!!!
Thank you so much Tia, for all the hugs they help alot. YAY for finding a place for apple and pumpkin picking!!these two love it, then again M&M tries to bite the apples as soon as they come off the tree and before the go in the basket, she likes to :mark her territory " LOL . I'm sorry your lil princess has gotten on such a wacky schedule .. I hope she's back to your time soon.
Probably so... but it is time for her to move on with her life, I think. She has never lived further away from us than an hour and it has been very nice for her as well as us. I know she wants to spread her wings and it is the perfect time in her life and the career opportunity is wonderful. I think I am ready too. Of course, come May when Kristin graduates from college and takes off for parts unknown, my tune might change drastically!
awww that's so sweet .. I know Kathrin will succeed in Boston just with the way you talk about her. and the fact that she has your FULL support i bet will make all the difference. and come may .. yes you might be singing a different tune .. but, you'll face that head on as well.

to get your through the moves and changes.
Heidi, I hope John's feeling back to %100 fast. Men do not do well when they're sick .. from my expierence. And we the care takers .. do even worse lol
