Awww, Lynn. I hope you get some rest, and do go in to see the doc ASAP if it's not better.ima go lay down...i just took some medicine so hopefully I can go to sleep soon...I will talk to you guys tomorrow....
Wow! I remember in HS saving for months to get contact lenses.
I had/have poor vision and always hated wearing glasses. My mom refused to consider getting contact lenses for me, saying there was nothing wrong with wearing glasses. (She wears them, as did my dad and 2 of my 3 siblings.) She told me I could get contact lenses if I saved up the money for the exam, fitting and lenses myself. So I did.
She told me years later that she was so proud of me for doing that!
My parents had us pay for the "luxuries in life" I guess you could say so when I was 15 I started working at a chinese restaurant making about $3.00 an hour and I worked 6 hours per week. Well if I remember correctly Liz bags cost about $125 back then. So you can imagine the months it took to save for them!!! I think my dad pitched in every now and then if I was close and they were on sale because he saw how hard I saved for one. I grew up pretty wealthy but my parents did not believe in spoiling us at all. In fact when we lived in Kansas City I had no clue we had money. It wasnt until we moved to Paradise Valley in AZ that I figured it out. It was frustrating to see my friends get several Liz bags handed to them and I had to work my tail off for one. Now I appreciate what they did for us (escpecially since I didnt marry for money 
)
DS3 is still up. He napped today, and I wasn't paying attention to the clock. He woke at 5:30.
So when DH went to bed a little bit ago, DS3 was not ready to sleep, so he's sitting next to me watching a Scooby Doo DVD.
He's in a very chatty mood, keeps asking, "Mama? Mommy? You know...I had da pirate and da treasha chess, and [DS7] had...ummmm..." He's talking about these things that grow when you put them in water. DS7 had this octopus that turned into this enormous, grotesque looking thing!
When we get those they never look like they are supposed to. they always turn out like monsters so dh said its some evil plan to have everyone buy them then the monsters will take over the world. Kind of like the Kim Possible So the Drama movie! which is where I think he got the idea!
I haven't seen Kim Possible, maybe I should?dont read this to your ds!!!
I haven't seen Kim Possible, maybe I should?
But seriously, they look so gross! The pirate and treasure chest got weirdly squishy and distorted. And that octopus got so huge, and has these big nubbies on it, it really is hideous! The boys just left them in their bathroom sink for the longest time and I finally got sick of looking at them, so DH took them out of the water. The pirate and chest were so squishy and slimy that when DS3 played with them, the pirate lost a leg, and then DS pulled the treasure chest apart. But that dang octopus is tough! And the next day he was back in the water. I assumed the boys did it, but do you suppose...?
It makes sense. It seems to be the only monster looking one of your bunch. Watch your back.
You need to break out that priority chart again, my girl.Whyy do I feel like my post count has been stuck in the 8000's forever. Not that I need to get up there so to speak but geez I think I've posted more than that.
Good night, Shawna.
Well, I'm yawning like crazy so I must go to sleep or else at the school tomorrow I'll tell the kids to stuff it!
Talk to you later!
to get through as well. Didnt I just do that????????????? It was late... I was tired.Hmmm....a DEBT card??
Debit. Sorry.
Hardly. My dh has this crazy thing... I believe its called A BRAIN!Please tell me you are not trying to break it to me that your DH is ninja dude, swinging the assault weapon around at everyone?
No, but on my first GYN exam at 16, my mom's doc told me, "You pretty girl! You have *** soon, so I give you BC!"
And a friend of mine was told (around the same age) by a male doc that she had "fine birthing hips." Not what you want to hear at that age.
I know, and why do we think that? Do we think spiders are too stupid to realize what's about to happen when they see a big hind end coming at 'em? That they don't see the flash of light and then the eclipse and think to themselves, "Holy Moses! Run for your life!"
He is very into gun safety, he just likes assault rifles. it doesnt bother me, as long as he takes me to Disneyland when I want! 13 pairs of shoes? Mikalah has ONE pair of shoes. (I only have one that I wear)Wow, that's quite a shopping spree! I used to love buying shoes, and I never bought 13 pair in one day, I think my record was 3 pair.
So what kind of shoes, how come so many? And what kind of outfits did she get?
What a fun day! My mom would never have done a day of fun and spa type stuff, so I never really knew a lot about girly types of things like that. In fact, for an upcoming Girls Night Out, we're talking about all going to get a pedicure! I've never even had a manicure before, so a pedi is kinda scary to me, but my friend assures me it is soooo nice and so relaxing! She said she hates her feet, but afterward couldn't wait to get a new pair of sandals so she could show off the pretty polish!
Be careful with that. When I was birthin the girl, I had a really bad earache at the hospital, along with a cough... I had freaking pneumonia!
My mom told me when I was 16 she would take me for contacts. Turns out some guy sticking mis hand in my eye about gave me a panic attack. Ill stick with my glasses thanks!Wow! I remember in HS saving for months to get contact lenses.

Yeah, that was my parents' philosophy as well. We didn't have a lot of money (though kids are completely unaware of that sort of thing), but they did expect to pay for college for us, and also they occasionally did something big (costly) for us. Like not too long after that I really wanted to do a summer exchange program through the Lion's Club, so my parents agreed to pay for it. It was $1200 to go to Australia for 8 weeks. Not too bad when you consider the airfare alone was that!much better purchase than a liz bag I'd say. Well Done!
No worries, I was fading fast, too. In fact, between 10 and 10:30 I kept nodding off, and that blasted child of mine kept waking me!Yikes sorry to leave you so quick Alex! I was dropping fast!
Hey, you!
Hey, you!
I just read your ticker. I can't believe you are nearly out of the first trimester!

I finally got up to go to bed. He ran ahead of me then came running back saying, "Mama, Daddy won't wake up to talk to me!"
"Honey, no! Don't wake Daddy, Daddy is sleeping! Daddy needs to sleep!"
"But why, Mama? I want to talk wiss him."
Mental note: Do not let Ds3 nap until 5:30pm again...[/QUOTE]
so I just got back from getting my eyebrows waxed. Remember I am competely covered in pale skin so this makes my skin RED for much longer than the average person. I had planned on going to Joann's afterwards to sign up for the 3rd and final cake class but I forgot how shocking it is after I wax. So now I am home waiting for 30 minutes before heading to the school. I hope they have calmed down by then or else I will scare the kids!
I look like this even more now.
How weird, I just saw this post of yours!Alex, I DO love a pedicure. In fact, I was just thinking about getting one.
My mom told me when I was 16 she would take me for contacts. Turns out some guy sticking mis hand in my eye about gave me a panic attack. Ill stick with my glasses thanks!
laughing: ), and I'll admit I'm curious. So we probably will when the weather is nice enough to wear sandals afterward.
That sounds like I would look, very pale with bright red where they'd just worked.so I just got back from getting my eyebrows waxed.
