[staley7580]

okay.. seriously, i need to go make dinner! Ill be back on tonight!

 

[Alex2kMommy]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Jazz kitchen!! I didnt notice it being really Cajuny.. at least not what we ate. Dh had trout.. It was delish!! i would just stay away from Tortilla Joes... The food SUCKEd and the service sucked, andit was WAY over priced!!! $6.00 for a single scoop of ice cream!! One teeny tiny scoop of ice cream!

It's funny, I remember when I first joined the DIS people raved about that place, saying it was good, plentiful food for an affordable price. Lately I haven't heard one good thing about it! I'm not a huge fan of Mexican dishes anyway (don't like the beans or rice, don't like fresh tomatoes or cilantro...), so no skin off my nose, ya know?

[eatmypixiedust]

He's fine.
I'm fine.
I slept more last night than the night before.

I'm glad your DH is okay and that you both were able to get some sleep!

I am sure nothing too bad I am just not dealing well with anything today. It didn't help that DH had to work all day Sunday (open to close), and DD has strep. So I was cooped up in 400 sq. ft. of living space with one sick kid and a really bad kid for two days. We paid the last month on the rental (we are guessing the last month his work will pay for it), yet still no bites on the house. If it doesn't sell we cannot afford to pay for this place too - so at that point if his work tells him no, I guess we will just move back - put the kids in the old school and then they are super behind - and Alec - again will start a month late. I got yelled at by a library lady today - some idiot woman took all the washers, and then my clothes got thrown out and up way high (because of the idiot woman) and besides rambling a whole lot I am still crying. Can't talk to DH because then he freaks - so I am all alone with a really crappy internet connection that probably won't even let me post this (which who knows, may be for the best anyways )

Dizzy- hang in there! I'm sorry you are going through such a rough time. I hope your house sells soon and I understand how that could be frustrating Sorry to hear that your DD is sick and dealing with that evil lady.

heh, me too... would love to get drunk now...

i got yelled at by my lead yesterday for not clocking out for lunch... EVEN though i was on time back... he was making the excuse that i took a 50 min lunch... i told him "Screw you... i started at 2:00PM, and you give me a freakin break at 6:00PM and my lunch in 7:00PM. WHAT THE POINT OF THE BREAK THEN... i rather just combine it..."

THere next excuse is well, you should have called back... so i reply 1) no one ever picks up at the office... 2) you always said "ohh, your breaks sheet is not done yet, just wait"

:\ Well, management really needs to rethink their strategies on us... or else the retention rate of us leaving will be even higher...

*sigh* just my rant. :\

That sucks Albort and I agree that's very unorganized on management's part.

Howdy Girls!

Sending big hugs for everybody . So much going on and everyone is so stressed out.

So I'm here tonight to cheer everyone up!

 

[eatmypixiedust]

What's up Alison?

 

[sameyeyam]

Had something funny happen this morning. Our electricity went out at about 4am. Of course I was busily snoring the night away and didn't notice. But DS notices the minute his night light goes out! So he heads over to his sister's bedroom to crawl in bed with her because he's scared. Only problem is she has a friend spending the night, so no room in her bed.

All I know is I wake up and DD is shining a flashlight right in my eyes! Not a good thing to wake up to. She explains that we have no electricity, so I tell DS to crawl in bed with me and I scoot over to the middle of the bed. However, I'm getting really warm with him next to me, so I say trade me places. He gets in the middle. By this time I can't sleep, so I stumble to my closet and grab a flashlight and make my way to the bathroom. After taking care of business, I walk back out in the bedroom. Which of course is when I realize that DH had already left for work before the electricity went out! So DS & I were scrunched up on one side of the bed for nothing! You know it's dark when you can't even tell if DH is in bed with you!! Anyways, it was hilarious when DD shines the flashlight right in my face to tell me the lights were out!! Think I'll do the same thing to her at about 6am when I get up for work tomorrow!!

Hey, Sam, I was wondering where you were today!

 

[eatmypixiedust]

Hi Alex

 

[sameyeyam]

What's up Alison?

Hey, Sam, I was wondering where you were today!

Believe it or not they actually expect me to work sometimes while I'm at work! I had all 4 of our hotels send their payroll/bill packets to me Monday & today, because SIL is there on those days to help, plus my boss is going back out of town, so we needed to get bills paid. So it was a busy, busy day!

We finally bought a king size bed because the entire family was in it so often.

And yes, sometimes I've gone to the loo and come back only to realize we were all squished up while DH's side is empty. Ahhh, well.

So what did you say when you got the flashlight in the face at 4 am? "The lights USED to be out, and I was really liking that!"

 

[Alex2kMommy]

Hi Alex

Howdy, pixster! What's new in the fast lane?

(BRB...DH just went for a walk, I hear DS3 squealing, so am switching to the laptop so I can supervise. )

 

[sameyeyam]

We have a king size bed too, but even though I don't get the bad hot flashes, I am still really warm when I sleep. I used to snuggle up to DH, but now I'm clear over on the edge, covers thrown off, near the a/c vent and have the ceiling fan on! So when DS was in bed with me I was roasting!!

All I can say is that Prozac works great! I wasn't even mad or anything when I got woke up, took me a minute to figure out what was going on. Then I just laid in bed laughing about the fact that she would shine it right in my face! I don't know why, but I still find it funny!
