The LOSER thread..we've moved...new address and directions on the last page

[disneymom3]

Hi guys. Been gone most of the day.

One thing I feel I am missing....Where is Bavaria's thread?

 

[Diznotyzed]

Hi everybody. The bathroom wallpaper is being stripped by my DH. Who am I to get in the way of his destructive fun.

(He's a winner)

 

[hrh_disney_queen]

If I tuck my shirts in people will realize I wear "mom" jeans.

I had those on, too. Well, not really..I actually wear mens jeans, but they look like MOM jeans on me...

 

[SunKat]

Wow, I must be a real ditz. I thought I posted something here, but I must have put it on a different thread...???

Um, I'm guessing that whatever thread it's on, those people are going to be really confused.

Hey, this sounds like a really fun loser game we can all play!! Reply to the wrong thread on purpose. And the other posters willl be all "ohhhh, it's those losers again..." Just kiddin' mods, I would never do that. I'm a loser and I just don't have the energy involved for that extra typing.

 

[It's A Happy Day]

Today I had to actually go to work....called in sick yesterday with some horrible disease But was actually sick so I spent most of the day in bed. I had to explain to DS6 why when Mommy calls in sick it is NOT to take him bowling Mind you I work & live in the same small town. So today back to work where I tried to hide in a corner and not wait on anyone (I work retail ). Called home after the Colts lost to DH taking my loser status....."Um hon, can you do me a favor when you get home and take my car out to get gas " WTH!!! So I leave work, go to the grocery store for ingredients to make chicken parm, get the obligatory bread & milk as we are supposed to get hit with 14" of snow between midnight and tomorrow afternoon. Get gas in MY car, get home and think SCREW THIS!!!! Take my keys, my DD5, and $100 from our Christmas money and ORDER PIZZA!!!! I did get his stupid gas but it cost him me ordering supper out cause I'm not doing both So since then I have parked my butt on the couch and sent the kids to bed. Just laughed loudly and announced "DON"T SET MY ALARM!!!" Schools been cancelled so no need to get up in the AM!!!

Morning Losers!

I actually slept last night....which is a big deal in our house. 6 hours straight of sleep is a rare occurrance. (DS has some medical issues that make it hard for him to sleep).

Can't believe how fast that weekend was over. Have to go back to the dreaded "W" place today....bleh!

Morning Losers!

Can't believe how fast that weekend was over. Have to go back to the dreaded "W" place today....bleh!

I know!! Is anyone else like me? I start the weekend by telling myself over and over again on Friday night that I'm going to get the laundry done, I'm going to scrub the floors, I'm going to organize my closet so that I can actually find my clothes, I'm going to do this, I'm going to do that. I say it to myself 100 times, thinking that it will seep into my mind, and I'll really do it.

I end up sleeping in on Saturday, because I'm at work by 4am in the summer, and I feel like I deserve a morning of snuggling under those comfy covers.

When I get up, I throw some cereal at the kids, and then plop down on the couch, thinking that I'll get right on my "to do" list as soon as my eyes open up all the way.

Two hours have gone by, and I haven't accomplished anything, so I think I'll check my email in case there's anything in there that I need to take care of.

While I'm at the computer, let me catch up on the news. And the Dis.

Four hours later, I'm thinking HOLY CRAP, I need to get something done. Ah, well, most of the day's gone, especially now that it's late afternoon. I'll soon have to cook dinner and give the kids a bath. Maybe I should just start on my list tomorrow.

Tomorrow comes, and I end up begging my hubby to take us for a ride somewhere, so I can get out of the house, because it looks like a pig sty and I can't motivate myself because I don't even know where to start. We take a ride to anywhere-but-here, get home too late, rush to get the kids in the tub and under the covers.

Weekends gone, and nothing was accomplished.

Which leaves me to wonder, who ever came up with the idea that the weekend should only be two days? I mean, that's not fair. You work five days, you should have more than two days off!!

I think we should all start a protest, rearranging the workweek. We'll start small, four days of work, three days off.

After the bosses get used to that, we'll change it again. Three days of work, four days off.

And then, in a couple of years, we'll switch it around again. Two days of work and five days off.

Yeah, I can deal with that.

Well yesterday I mentioned to DH that we have no meat in the house for dinner so maybe we chould stop after Mass at the store and get meat. Well being the meat loving guy that he is I thought he would jump all over this. Nope in true LOSER fashion he says "nah dont, we have Applebees gift cards from Christmas, let's just order out and sit in front of football on TV and eat. yeah!

I did forget to feed my kids lunch bc we went for donuts after Mass, the church has this once a month, so my kids had donuts for lunch!

But at the end of the day DS10 announced he has no underwear left after today, so I guess I need to do at least one load today.

Atleast he give you a day's notice. My #1DS tells me, after he takes his baths at night that he is out. So I have to do a load right then so he has some for the next day. He also does this with his socks too

 

[pperfectmom]

Good morning LOSERS!!! Hope everyone had a good non-productive weekend. I certainly did. I don't think I accomplished much at all but I can't really remember. I have had the sick DH at home since Thursday and he is a man, of course, so he has laid around on the couch acting like death is at his door moaning and groaning all weekend. I was so excited because he said he felt like going to work this morning but then he called and said he's coming home and told his boss he'll be off until he feels better! Having him here really interferes with my schedule-sleep till the kids wake up, drink coffee and gaze in a stupor at the computer for a couple hours, scrape up enough energy to give the kids breakfast about 9:30(yes I am fully aware that I am a horrible mom ), maybe do a little housework till I can convince the kids it's lunch and then naptime. After that I have some free time to myself to do yoga, or more likely, pour over all the important threads I missed while "working" so hard. Now I'm going to have to pretend that I do a lot more around here while he's at work. Doh!

That's what sinks are for

Morning LOSERS, well I am back at work when I wish I was in bed. Yes I am feeling better but I am not 100%. For some reason my stomach has started acting up...and I ate breakfast this morning with a glass of OJ. If it doesn't settle down soon I am going to get a Sprite from the machine. I just hope it is a slow day and they don't give me much to do.

 

[Nienor]

That's what sinks are for

That's what turning them inside out is for.



Kidding on that one. I haven't stooped quite that low yet. But I'm pretty sure there will come a day...

And now time for my Winner moment of the week.

Last Sunday I joined Weight Watchers because I am significantly overweight. Just trying to eat right wasn't cutting it so I thought a plan would help. I am doing it online and did my first weigh in yesterday. I dropped 4 pounds in a week. Now I know some of that is from being sick and not being able to eat properly. But hopefully I can keep it up so I can be a size 10 by my next Disney vacation.

Excellent! Hopefully you can keep it up without staying sick! Glad to hear you're feeling a little better. Stick to some bland foods until your body is done healing.

I have a lot of winner-type stuff to do today - laundry and cleaning. Blah. I'll make up for it by letting the kids eat unreasonable amounts of cupcakes and ice cream today.

Lets just say this...I was born on the cusp of Gen X and Gen Y and I can identify with both groups. And I still get carded for beer. Then again the women on my mom's side of the family look young. My grandma is in her 80s but looks and acts at least 20 years younger. And on my next birthday I will be closer to 30 than 25.

Ok see I thought you were younger

But you being on the cusp I think helps with references. I have Dbro 28 who gets most of my references and Dbro 24 who doesnt. Even DH and I are 6 years apart (he's older) and sometimes I dont get his references.

Although I had to laugh bc shortly after I read how old you were I went in the other room and the Kia commercial was on. Well a couple of years ago when I was working I arrived at my cube to find the ceiling tile buckling above me. I turned to my coworkers who are 28 now and said "there is no way I am sitting there and having a Flashdance moment" They didnt get the reference. So just then my boss who was in the over 40 crowd walks by. I make the same comment. He starts laughing hysterically and "says aww cmon and sit there I will get you a headband and some leg warmers" he got it. So now every time I see the Kia commercial that is referencing the Flashdance scence and they are playing the Maniac song, I always think how many people younger than me are not getting this. (I am 38 by the way )

Now see I need to get with it. These are great suggestions.

And yes I was lucky that I got notice I normally dont from the kids or DH.

 

[LUVMYTINK]

Well I'm having what you could either call a WINNER or LOSERS kind of day right now. I'm trying to burn all our VHS tapes onto DVDs (trying cause some are protected ) so I can get rid of the tapes at a future yard sale so the house is less cluttered. So I guess you can call it either way, WINNER = organizing & cleaning / LOSERS = sitting around watching movies.
I'm alittle ahead this week too having all the laundry done & folded, but still not put away & already done the dishes. Now if I could just get DD to clean her room so I wouldn't have to I would be happy. But as she has told me before she thinks cleaning her room is (& I quote)BOOOOOOORRRRRRRRIIINNNNGGGGGG.

 

[Thats_for_Shore]

I have to go to a viewing this evening. A close family friend passed away, and I have no choice but to make an appearance and express my condolences. Since I can't make it to the funeral tomorrow (totally impossible), I have to go tonight.

So, I'll have to be as un-LOSERy as possible, and get dressed up. I'll even have on make up and heels. It'll be the first time since we hosted our company Christmas party that anything other than soap and water has touched my face.

I absolutely LOVE that commercial. I laugh out loud every time I see it. My husband is a few years younger than me, and he just doesn't really see the humor in it.
