The Mad Chatters thread Part 2

Good, thanks.

Had to kick some unaccompanied minors out of the pool. First they were playing with the lifering, then tied it to a chair and started to drag it into the pool. I stopped that, then two started to leave, one said something, then one came flying back into the pool and punched him as he jumped in. Then they both started throwing punches at each other in the pool. No one else did anything, and by this time I figured out none of the adults there were with them, so I yelled at them to go home if no adult was with them, and they did.

Again I say, you can take the teacher out of the school, but you can't stop her from being teacher-y!

Good for you. How is your mom doing? Has anyone called with more info?

I too love colored pens. THey make me feel "happy" when I write with them! *yes, I know I am strange *

Then I'm strange too. I hear there's strength in strangeness. Or is that numbers? I get weird when I'm tired. Hi Jay!!!!

I talked to her today. I put a long post on here, but I erased it..........no sense in being a complainer!

They have decided there's something wrong with the knee on the opposite leg from the broken ankle. They were going to run some tests to see if it's a cracked kneecap or a torn tendon. Once they fix it, she will be transferred to a rehabilitation hospital for a couple of weeks.

Hi Karen!

 

[EEYOREMAMA]

The dog has been to the vet twice (he ingested a week old pork roast that had been in the outside garbage for about 6 days of that week). He got some sort of bacterial infection of his pancreas (sp?) and he had to be fed by IV for 48 hours to rest his stomach (not the smartest dog, but we love him anyway).

EEEEEWWWWWWWW.......Poor baby!!!!!! Sounds like something my crazy Shepherd would do. Has to eat the wrong, wrong thing. What is it with our lovable fur babies. I am so happy he's doing better. BIG I love dogs!!!!!!

Occupational hazzard. That's my life, too.
Hi Paige

Hey Karen!! I have missed you all this week. I am still having a lot of fun over on your DYR thread. I like the walk down memory lane!

**If there is strength in strangeness...then I should be ruling the world:
1.I like to dip my french fries in shakes.
2. I actually liked the movie Weekend at Bernie's 2.
3. I don't mind doing our taxes every year (hate paying them...just don't mind the actual process of preparing them).
4. I must have chapstick on at almost all times.
5. I enjoy waiting for trips, holidays, etc.
6. I still watch Survivor every time it comes on (even the reruns on the game show network).
7. I like to write with colored pens.
8. I have cousins (thanks Paige for the term, I took the liberty of borrowing it) that I have never even met.
9. Every once in a while I find myself pulling out a coloring book and a box of new crayons and having at it.
10. I still think Punky Brewster rocks.

I am strange...but then again, who is normal?

 

[paigevz]

I was worried my son would be embarrassed, as his friend and the friend's cousin had come with their parents, too, but the cousin said to me, "You did a good job!" He looked about 10, but Nick said he told him he was 13. Then I heard my son's friend say to him, "I'm glad your mom made them leave."

I'm glad the poor dog is on the road to recovery. All because of some leftovers.............they do find anything and everything, don't they?

Hi Karen!

Paige, if ya don't want to load an entire board with complaints, my PM box is always open.

 

[paigevz]

I have numbers 6, 8, and 10..............

Paige, if ya don't want to load an entire board with complaints, my PM box is always open.

Thanks, Jay, I did think about it, but since just typing it did the trick, I was okay.

My main thing right now is just wishing I could be there and knowing I can't. And it doesn't help that I realize that even if I was there, there would be little I could do.

It's also bringing out the worst in some of my relationships with relatives.

 

[paigevz]

Enough of that..............hey, we didn't have lasgna after all, dh decided he wanted Chipotle!

I just love the fajita bowl with chicken and sour cream............mmmm..........

Yep, they sure do. Who knew he would spend his time outside pulling garbage out of the can (he had to jump up, flip open the lid, pull out a sealed bag of garbage, chew through the bag and finally then got to the roast that had spent too much time in the fridge to eat so I tossed it out). Sick. Even for a dog...seriously demented choice of foods! ICK...then again, they lick themselves

I just love that big lug. He's a sweet loveable giant lug. We love him but he won't be winning any intelligence contests!

 

[paigevz]

Yeah, my dog is a goober too. We just shake our heads and move on. He's too small to get into a trash can, though!

Hey Karen!! I have missed you all this week. I am still having a lot of fun over on your DYR thread. I like the walk down memory lane!

I have been so off schedule, I have missed everyone. I missed you too!

**If there is strength in strangeness...then I should be ruling the world:
1.I like to dip my french fries in shakes.
Doesn't everyone?

2. I actually liked the movie Weekend at Bernie's 2.
So did I

3. I don't mind doing our taxes every year (hate paying them...just don't mind the actual process of preparing them).
dh does it, so I don't have to

4. I must have chapstick on at almost all times.
I wear cherry

5. I enjoy waiting for trips, holidays, etc.
Magical for me. The wating makes it more special

6. I still watch Survivor every time it comes on (even the reruns on the game show network).
I don't really watch tv. I think that makes me stranger than you

7. I like to write with colored pens.
Obviously

8. I have cousins (thanks Paige for the term, I took the liberty of borrowing it) that I have never even met.
I have tons of relatives I have never wanted to meet

9. Every once in a while I find myself pulling out a coloring book and a box of new crayons and having at it.
I call it therapy. I do this on a regular basis. I minored in art and I can draw really well. I still love to sit and color

10. I still think Punky Brewster rocks.
You have me on this one. I still like Barney

YUM that does sound good! I love eating there. We have not done it in a long while...I guess I should change that! Tomorrow lunch will be turkey on oat nut bread (yum, I love oat nut bread) and then dinner will be herb crusted flank steak...another yum...but I don't have taters in the house so I won't be able to have mashed taters with it. I guess I can rustle up somethin' else.

Monday I will be running to practice with the boys...maybe Tuesday we can fit a Chipotle run in! **now that I am craving it**

Good idea!!

What's on your plate tomorrow (no pun intended).

 

[paigevz]

Well, if I get up on time, I'll maybe take the kids to Sunday School............

The lawn needs mowing, not sure if dh or I will do that..................

House needs cleaning, I'm finishing a junior novel, and I need to do some baking...............we're running out of cookies! Maybe some brownies.............
