Good Morning Hyenas!!

Have my Grandson today. Right now he is playing with playdough.

Hope you all got your gobbles!!!

Have a nice day!

Good morning, hyenas!
Overcast, but at least it stopped raining! I think it rained all night, whew!

I was a little worried this morning when the boys were getting ready to go to school. I sat them down at the dining room table for a bowl of cereal, and DS4 wasn't eating. I encouraged him a couple of times to eat, and he said sadly, "I don' want to, Mama. My tummy hurts."

Immediately my mind replayed yesterday at Costco, when the boys finished their hotdog/pizza and begged for a bite of the frozen yogurt/ice cream I was eating. And we all shared it, even DH had a few bites. Now I'm thinking, Fabulous! Now we're all going to get the barfies!

Me: Honey, why does your tummy hurt?
DS4: I don' know.
Me: Does it hurt like you're sick, or does it hurt like you're hungry?
DS4: No, I not sick. It hurts because I din't have no food for a long, long time. I din't have dinger. {Cue little sad face }

I totally forgot he refused to eat dinner last night; it was a chicken sandwich, which both boys usually devour, but having a sandwich for dinner was apparently offending his sensibilities... The little stinker wouldn't even take one bite of it!

Me, feeling greatly relieved!: Well, honey, why don't you eat your cereal. Then that will put food in your tummy and it won't hurt anymore.
DS4, perking up: OK, Mama!

I am pushing and scrubbing out sinks and toilets today, WOOHOO! Fun, fun, fun!

Thought I would take a few minutes on the DIS while the next load washes. Hope you all are enjoying the day. One more day until the election season is over, we can all go back to regular TV programming, commercials for Depends and Viagra, and phone calls from real people.

Hello! Hope you are all doing well! DBF and I had a blast in San Diego. The weather was warm. We did the Wild Animal Park, Sea World and the Monster Ball in the Gaslamp Quarter.

Hello!! My head is going to EXPLODE.

 

[staley7580]

No one yet?? Poop. Well. My day was SO exciting. I woke around 5, freaking out about money. Seriously.. It is becoming a daily thing for me. I get all wound up thinking about Christmas, and having to buy all the stuff for the babies. My husband tells my I worry to much. Ya think?

 

[staley7580]

ooohhh.. I forgot the rest of my day! See.. I am losing my mind. Well.. I couldnt get back to sleep, so i got up, got the boy ready for school.. chatted with my hubby.. go the girl up and ready.. Then I asked dh to get me some breaky. I figured it wouldnt be so bad if I ate in bed, right? So I crawled into bed, and it took everything I had to stay awake to eat. He went to take my dish away, and I fell asleep. Seriously. I took a nap at 8 this morning. I slept until 11. By then I was ready for lunch.

OMG. How the heck am I going to make it the rest of this pregnancy?

NO!! No exploding heads allowed on the Hyena thread!

Quit freaking out about money. Everybody is freaking out about money these days. I started watching The Waltons reruns every morning while I'm getting ready for work. Followed by 15 minutes of Little House on the Prairie. Now those people had NO MONEY! After watching them, our economic problems don't seem nearly as bad.

One day at a time sweetie, one day at a time. There were some days I just didn't think I wanted to live another day going thru chemo...my body ached, I was tired, nauseated, looked like death warmed over. But you know what? I made it thru it and you will make it thru this. Some days might not be real fun, but look at the wonderful reward you have at the end.

Just take one day at a time. If it's a bad day, just get thru one hour at a time and do the best you can. Don't try to be Super Woman...we already know we're all Super Women, so no need to prove anything. You just do the best you can, listen to your body and know that in a few months you will make it thru these bad times.

Beside, this ain't nothing...wait until you have a house full of teenagers!

 

[staley7580]

Oh BOY. I just tried to clean up, and I ended up barfing all over the place. My husband was upset because the kids had left some papers on the floor, so I bustled around picking them up. To much bending I guess. Ill bet he doesnt want me to clean any more.

 

[staley7580]

Hi Alison! A house full of teens. Precisely why I want to stick my head in the oven.

Good Morning Hyenas! Sorry to post and run last night Megan. But I was having problems staying connected to the internet. Happens sometimes when we get a lot of rain and the phone lines get soggy or something! No I'm not joking, we have underground phone lines and when it rains the water fills up in the ditch and I guess it soaks down! I know our phone line has lots of splices in it from when they were putting in our road and cut thru the line about twice a day!

I'm off to get ready for work. Everyone have a Great Day!

Good Morning Hyenas,

I was on the DIS last night but everyone was MIA I found out this morning that one of my buyers in Mexico was fired last week. I was wondering why I wasn't getting a response to my e-mails or my phone calls.

Oh and Motorola is our biggest customer and they are planning to let go of 3,000 employees!

Last night I went to Whole Foods and they had my fav baked cheese puffs on sale. I didn't know they had sales there. I also bought 2 frozen burritos on sale for $1.99/EA. I hope they taste good.

I hope you guys have a good day. Who are you all planning to vote for?

 

[staley7580]

I know there is someone out there. I can SEE you. I am feeling nicely stress free today. I dont know why. Must have been all the tootsie rolls I just ate.

Just trolling through the CB threads. Things seem a bit calmer today on the more political threads.

I NEVER read the political threads. Ever. People just get all crazy about it.
