These Are The MAYS of our Lives- The MAYers, Part VI

[Momof2Disneyboys]

Morning MAYers!

It's Single Digit Day here - 9 DAYS to go!!!

Okay Lake, we will get right on planning that Frankenmuth trip as soon as we get back from Florida! Have fun shopping today!

YAY for Chris starting and telling you about it NC!!

Sorry you are going through a rough patch RF. Times are hard for a lot of people right now facing the same type of situation. It's a scary world! You guys are a strong couple and you will get though this and be even closer in the end. Hang in there!

Morning.

Belle woke up this morning and promptly threw up- so she is home (AGAIN) from school.

Sea- wow on the table. We had that happen to us when we lived here the first time. A microburst hit our street and flipped everything all over the place. It's a pain in the rear end to clean up those shards.


NC- yay for Chris!! Hope all goes well for him. Hey- rain--- wow- you haven't had any of that in a really long time.


RF---- My hugs to you, honey.
Sounds like Bob and Mark could be twins. I'm the pampered Princess and when it ain't happenin' something's definitely up.

NC is right. Men want to feel like they are our Knight in Shining armor and when things aren't falling just so into place-- when things are up in the air- it's stressful on them.
Give him an extra hug- make him dinner- let him play a round of golf...tell him it will all work out and your love is unconditional.
You know what my G'ma used to say? When Poverty comes in the door, love flies out the window. And so often marriages struggle when jobs are iffy.
You can make it work but it's often that you sacrifice- sacrifice- sacrifice.

Our first move was away from my family to NY from SC- first time I'd ever really moved away.
During that first year- here's what we dealt with--
~a major move out of state
~my dad diagnosed with cancer
~Mark taking on a huge job where he worked 18 hour days plus weekends
~my dad died
~I got pregnant with Belle
~they told Mark he might lose his job


We never got close to divorce, but man, there were some days that I thought we might be stepping in that direction.

Stress can either drive a wedge between you or you can willfully choose to pull together by sacrificially giving of yourselves.

Have you done the Love Dare yet?

What the heck is the Love Dare?

Have you seen the movie Fireproof? It's based on that.

It is totally awesome. Hard to do sometimes, but wonderful.

Never heard of it Jo. But I will definitely be looking into it.

We're not 'bad' per se... It's just not something I am used to with him and I dont want it to keep being a problem that is getting swept under the rug.

Thanks for all the support everyone. Really.

I needed to get it off my chest and I can't really tell anyone in my family what's going on - because they are all in the same boat too and I just don't feel like it getting turned around and getting thrown in my face or something.

I know and if your famiy is like mine, they'll remember it forever...

But that's what the MAYers are here for!

 

[Tasmen]

Hi Mayers...well the weather changed really dramatically around here. We had winds that got up to 70 mph! Signs fell down, tree branches hitting cars, etc.

Yikes!!!!! That's some crazy wind action there.

So - it's been a rocky week in our home. We could use some pixie dust for sure.

Here's some more pixie dust your way! Like others have said, it's rough times out there right now. Just continue to show Bob that you love him and that you are there for him.

Morning MAYers!

It's Single Digit Day here - 9 DAYS to go!!!

Wooowooo..thems some exciting words!

 

[seacrestpromo]

Yo Ho!!! 15 days until my Caribbean cruise! Arrrrrrgh!

 

[Tasmen]

Boooooooooo. I just saw the updated schedule for Disneyland for the dates that we are going to be there. There is no Fantasmic on the schedule We were really wanting to see the new, updated version at DL.

Sea, do you know what is going on with that? Is Fantasmic just dark during the month of December or does it have something to do with Candlelight Procession being that particular weekend? Either way, color me bummed

Holy cow! That has really snuck up, hasn't it???

[trixiequilts]

Jo, how long has Belle been sick?

 

[JoBird]

She woke up this morning, walked downstairs then ran back up to her bathroom.

She's gotten sick three times now.
I'm hoping it's a quick passing thing. There is a bad virus going around. She has now missed 6 days of school so far from being sick.

Everytime she sips a bit of water- she can't hold it down. I keep trying every two hours.

DS8 told me he didn't feel good this morning. But they have both been saying that nearly every morning this week. He didn't have a fever and wasn't coughing, so off he went to school. The school nurse called me around 11:45 and said he had a slight fever and a stomach ache.

He hasn't thrown up yet. He almost did when he was taking his Tylenol to get his fever down. But he did end up getting it down. He seems to be perking up a bit and just had some toast.

We will skip trick or treat at the outlet mall tonight and see how things go through the night and tomorrow morning to see if he can go to school tomorrow.

I hope he feels better for treating on saturday.
