The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 31

again...sounds right in my head...dress is a marching term...means she's staying in line, tempo...all that.

boy, I'm not doing so well keeping up today at all! Or, is it that I'm learning a lot?

Robyn, the party looks like it was a great success!

[bear74]

hey Jennifer how did the cookie making go? How many different kinds did you all make?

How are the peanuts treating you today?

 

[babytrees]

Could you upload the picture to a Walgreens in her area and then have her pick them up and pay for them? It would be instant...and then the responsibility to pay & get them falls on her.

I doubt there is a Walgreens there...they are in Podunk, MT not really but MT is a bit backwards

Jennifer - Oh, Virginia is SOOOO cute! And Olivia looks beautiful in her dress! Your family pics came out great!

I hope that things were better after this.

Dh and I will celebrate our 20th anniversary next spring, and we've been together for 24 years. He still doesn't get that my venting isn't directed at him sometimes. I can't just be in a bad mood, apparently. He does understand (and use) sarcasm very well, though.

DH tries to cut me off when I am venting, and that just makes me madder. After 17 years he still hasn't figured out that he should just sit there - I don't want him to find a solution, I can do that myself!

The sleepover was a success. I survived, and more importantly, so did the children. They went to sleep around 11:30 and were up at 6AM! I heard them playing video games downstairs but I didn't go down until about 7:30. Parents were here at 8:30 to retrieve them. We were busy running around all day today and I am finally laying down resting. I'm exhausted.

A sleepover without fatalities is always a good thing.

Can I get opinions?

My MIL called this afternoon and asked us to send her pictures of the girls....for her Christmas Cards. She wants them within a week and didn't offer to pay for them or the mailing....the more I thought about it the more irked I got. First they aren't her kids, second she didn't offer any reimbursement, third she wants them immediately.

Am I being unreasonable??

Nope. She is, but you aren't.

weather here is horrendous as well...completely covered in ice!! Glad to be in for the night

That does not bode well for my bosses!

again...sounds right in my head...dress is a marching term...means she's staying in line, tempo...all that.

I couldn't figure out if she is dressed BETTER why they put her in the middle! I thought about it from a "looks" standpoint as well as from the standpoint of being dressed better to be in the cold, and I still couldn't work out why they would put her in the MIDDLE. Now I get it.

Me too. I am exhausted. See everyone in the morning

Sounds like the fridge and the party both worked out fine!

Elin - I know what a larder is, so at least Theresa was the only one who confused me.

Everyone stay warm! It sounds like some ugly weather is plaguing the DDA! Except here. It was still in the 60's when I came home about an hour ago.

 

[babytrees]

OH! Thanks for increasing my vocabulary tonight, Theresa! Does that mean that with her in the center the line on either side of her is more apt to stay together?

yup....she often "dresses" the line.

Kristine kind of beat me too it. My thought was to email her a photo and let her print it where ever she wants on what ever time schedule she likes.

Speaking of pictures, I picked up Colby's at Kmart today and they came out really good. I should scan them in for you guys to see. I already have one on the wall and so does my Mother.

the woman is computer illiterate....this is what makes it more frustrating because I have the girls pictures ready for printing for the grandparents Christmas gifts...now I have to find one more that's good for her to use to "show" off the kids.

She isn't really trying to show off her girls...I think they are really just an after thought(she got a picture of the other four together)....they usually are. We all are...we threw her off even being home this afternoon. Easier to ask a voice mail than us in "person".

 

[babytrees]

The pictures are wonderful, and it looks like the perfect party, Robyn. Well done, Mom!!

exactly what I wanted to say so I am going to ditto!!

 

[babytrees]

Jennifer-wonderful pictures of the whole family!!!

 

[babytrees]

Well I caught up and the DIS has slowed down.

need more good thoughts this way...Jim isn't feeling quite right and we will probably head to after hours clinic tomorrow morning unless of course he gets worse tonight.

I am sure he thinks I am callous but he drives me nuts some times being such a worry wart so I snapped at him earlier...mainly because I've been asking him to go get a check up for over a year. I figure (hope) that he is being a worry wart again...but just in case please send some prayers this way.

I have an AP, Almost enough for RT flight, all I need is room & food. I think it may be a possibility. I mentioned to the boys that maybe I could go next year & they informed me they were going too! I will have to keep an eye out for discounts or if there is bounceback offered when we go in a few weeks

I would be planning too, Janet!

 

[tinknme]

How cute!

Look what I got from the UP of Michigan today! Just in time to christen my tree.

I thought it was from Vicki, but the return address says Becky! So, whichever lovely Yooper sent it, thanks! I love it. :

 

[tinknme]

I'm sorry, I know the holidays are hard

I am good thank you. Thinking of my dad lately, with Christmas coming up (he loved Christmas).

How are you?

NICHOLAS I HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!
