I have to think there wouldn't have been many responses to a thread with that title.

That's what I thought it said, too.
 
was that for the "before" pic or the "after" pic?:rotfl:

You should see the room that I moved all that crap to..that's what I do when I clean. I move stuff from one room, to another, to another, and finally through some cosmic miracle, it all ends up in the correct room for a brief moment.

It was for the work that must have been involved to progress from one to the other!
 
Ok, I'm peeved.

My Mexican guy doesn't have a phone (he chooses not to), but since he lives in the little loft above the crabhouse, he uses my phone if he needs to, and will answer the phone if he sees my number come up on the caller ID.

So, I need to tell him something, and one of my girls answers the phone. She's in her house (which has a phone, but someone else was probably using it), answers my phone, and then I have to hold while she runs next door to find my Mexican guy (who wasn't there).

Anyhow, why are they using my phone? Why do the think it's ok to use my business phone? Why do they think it's ok to answer my business phone? I have customers who will leave a crab meat order on the answering machine, but I'm sure they'll hang up thinking they have the wrong number when they hear "Bueno."

Now I have to be the mean, bad person and tell them they aren't allowed to touch my stuff.

Boundaries, people, boundaries!!
 
Ah, yes. The "what decent normal intellegent mom would do what you did" line. Things do tend to get interesting after those, don't they? :rotfl:
:wave: I think I'm a decent normal intellegent mom & I would let DD do it. Shoot, I would dye my own hair purple if I wanted too.


When I first saw that thread, I thought it said, "Question for Virgins"!:rotfl:

I was quite disappointed when I opened the thread.

Since you admitted it... I thought the same thing! :lmao:

Glad to see I wasn't the only one that thought it said that :rotfl2:

I would be peeved also. I guess they just thought you would not mind

It just isn't a good business practice to have people answering the phones that can't even speak English.

And what happens when hubby gets there tonight and he wants to make a call, but the cordless has disappeared, and it's not like he's going to go beat on their doors at 10 o'clock at night to get it back.
 
Wasting Away Again in Loserville....searching for my lost shaker of salt, and lost remote, and lost poo stick, and lost toddler.....(actually, this is way too long, I can only put the bolded part on the exterior title)
Rule #1.....oh crap, who was supposed to do the rule? We got no rule here...we must be a bunch of slacker losers.

Rule #2......there will be no judging of the slacker who was supposed to do rule #1! Judge Judy was on for God's sake! There are priorities here

Rule #3....no getting excited about cleaning unless A. someone else is doing it B. you have PMS and it's clean, kill your husband, or eat ten pounds of chocolate C. you have found a self cleaning house and someone gave it to you for free.

Rule #4....NO CRAFTING! One of your kids has a project? pay the older sibling to work on it with your kid.

Rule #5...If you put dirty clothes in a pillow case, it's decorative




Help...what are the other rules for the first post???
 
:wave2: Hey everybody! I'm home. :sad: Florida was great - not too exciting, but very relaxing. Just wanted to stop by and say "hi"! I don't think I have enough time to go through a week's worth of posts, so if anybody wants to do the big week-in-review I would really, really, really appreciate it! Hope everybody's had a great week!

Yeah, that's nto cool. Do you have an office or something you can lock the phone in?
 
Nope, no office. I have my little corner, and a little table with my organizer, my health dept stuff, my records, and my phone.

But I did think about hiding the phone somewhere everyday. I'm sure that would get the point across.

What is it with me and my phone problems lately -- and Kate too!
 
Rule #1 - If the queen mum would drop by right now to your house for tea and you would gladly let her in - you are not allowed to post. For two reasons = #1. You have better friends than we all do. #2. Obviously, your house is so sparkling clean that you don't need to run around doing the "closet shove"

Rule #2 - If you can't laugh at a two year old that fingerpaints with his own output - you are not welcome....ok...if it's you're kid, you're allowed a moment of first

Rule #3 - If you own a label maker - AND USE IT, you are not allowed in this forum

Rule #4 - If you were asked by your son/daughter's school to bring green food in, and you were excited to do this (without an internal "oh crap") - you aren't allowed

Rule #5 - If you notice a sticky spot on the floor, and immediately rush to get the mop - you won't be welcome here

Rule #6 - If you fold your underwear, iron your sheets, or space the hanging items in your closet exactly 3" apart - you need not apply

Rule #7 - If never in your entire parenting existinance have you heard the words "you are the meanest mom EVER" - you are wasting your time here

Rule#7.2 - If you actually own a trophy that says "Mother of the Year" - you aren't allowed to post

Rule #8 - If you know right off the top of your head what gets peeps out of carpet, you won't be welcome. Well.... on second thought, maybe you will be. You never know when that kind of information comes in handy!!

Rule #9 - You can post as often as you want, but you are expected to use the Dis as an excuse not to clean.

Rule #10- if you have never in your life used a drive thru ANYTHING (ATM/fast food/pharmacies/toll bridges/liquor store/marriage chapel) because you are concerned with the environment, you need not apply.

Rule #11 - If you follow rules, you may have a hard time getting along...so, well, I guess the other ten rules don't matter so much!


So throw those clothes on the floor, pull that chair over (make sure you put the phone book back under the broken leg of the chair) and join us for stress and guilt free fun!!!
Here are the rules
 
Wasting Away Again in Loserville....searching for my lost shaker of salt, and lost remote, and lost poo stick, and lost toddler.....(actually, this is way too long, I can only put the bolded part on the exterior title)
Rule #1.....oh crap, who was supposed to do the rule? We got no rule here...we must be a bunch of slacker losers.

Rule #3....no getting excited about cleaning unless A. someone else is doing it B. you have PMS and it's clean, kill your husband, or eat ten pounds of chocolate C. you have found a self cleaning house and someone gave it to you for free.

Rule #4....NO CRAFTING! One of your kids has a project? pay the older sibling to work on it with your kid.

Rule #5...If you put dirty clothes in a pillow case, it's decorative



Adding from the last list (but changing enough to stay fresh)

Rule #6....You MUST be able to laugh at toddlers doodling with doodie or chasing their siblings with poo sticks!

Rule #7...you must have A. sent your kids to school in dirty socks B. bribed your children to run your errands or C. been called the meanest mom EVER within the last year to join. Animals peeing in corners may be substitued for any of these things.

Rule #8....snakes in the house or pee in the tubs are to be reported instantly so that you may be teased mercilessly.

Rule #9....you are expected to defend drive-thru's to the DEATH!

Rule #10....you should not respect or follow rules very well...:rolleyes1
