Wasting away again in Loserville-(all welcome to grab an adult beverage and come in)

[LUVMYTINK]

go to the commissary for groceries (pay day ) or just scrounge up food til next Tuesday when I'll have the chance to get there again.

I'll pray for you if you pray for me. I'm going tomorrow & that's the day they are starting the case lot sale

Morning Losers. No coffee today since my fave travel mug was stolen. We have preschool this AM and am down to one good travel mug. Not taking any chances with it. A couple of Diet Mtn. Dew's should cover the caffeine addiction for me...

DD woke up before 7 with a bloody nose. Poor thing. I was in the shower and heard her crying. I figured she was mad that the trash trucks woke her up (garbage day and we are the first street...LOUD!), so I just called for her to come into the bathroom with me. When she got there, she looked like an extra from "Carrie." Covered in blood from the nose down. So, I jumped out of the shower (naked, wet and cold) and got the bleeding stopped, cleaned her up, stripped her bed, etc., and then got back into to finish my shower! I feel so bad for her when they happen. At least with other things, you can redirect her actions (cause and effect, etc.), but these occur without warning and there isn't anything she can do (except hydrate better) to stop them.

She has announced that she is going to tell her preschool about her 'bloody' day. I am sure her teacher will be thrilled...

Later Losers! We are off...

Does she get nose bleed for no reason every so often?
Our oldest does and the Dr. said there's nothing they can do, but to help prevent them take a q-tip with some vaseline on it and apply to the inside of the nose. It seemed to help.

DS5 gets the blooddy noses while sleeping too. "Carrie" is a very good description of what they look like!

Thanks for reminding me! Maybe I'll wait and go tomorrow. I love those case lot sales. But prayers are definitely in order! I hat the 1st of the month worst because it brings out everyone--active AND retired!

Football Mommy, My husband has taken every single travel mug in the house and none have come back. We buy them ALL the time and they all disapear. I don't like coffee from the mini mart so when I have early morning sporting events I am out of luck.

I hope everyone has a nice day.

Have you ever bought those disposable Dixie coffe cups with lids (just like the ones at the coffee places) Then you wouldn't have to worry about them coming back. They aren't super cheap, but at least you could bring your own coffee.

Morning Losers.

It is still morning, isn't it? I am SO FREAKING TIRED!

Sorry for yelling.

I think I'll go crawl back under my rock and growl at people when they get too close.

My husband is hooking up my GPS today. I used to have a nav system in my Landcruiser, but traded that in for a smaller suv that doesn't come with that so had to buy one of the ones that plug in. I got it for Christmas and it is May 1st now. Nothing like putting things off forever right?

I have already been straightening up today. Still have to get all the kids off to school. Then some peace and quiet.

I hope everyone has a nice day.

Turns out, someone turned my cup in to DD's teacher, so it was returned! I still think I will use an 'older' travel mug next time, just in case, but I am really happy to have the "good" one back. (Okay, it was free from one of DH's vendors, but it is better than ones we've purchased!)

Yeah, they just come out of nowhere. Mainly when she sleeps (she rubs her nose when she's tired), but we have been out (like at the State Fair) when the nose just begins to pour. Not fun. Doc says the same thing...nothing you can do but keep her hydrated. We put a humidifier on the house, but it only runs when the heater is on, so summers are a new challenge. It was easier when I had more control over what she drank and when, but now that she is three, I can't do as much about it.

Thanks for the vaseline tip. I read recently about putting cayenne pepper on a Q-tip and putting it up there to stop the bleeding, but I can't imagine even doing that! They say the pepper doesn't hurt, but it is gushing, so I'm not sure it would even be effective. (sorry for the TMI...)

I have used them in the past, but always forget to buy them at the store. Then, of course, finding a place to store them...I am such a loser...

Be careful with the GPS. DH had an employee have his stolen from the mall parking lot. He had taken the GPS down, but the thieves apparently noticed the suction cup marks on the window, so they broke in and took it from under the seat!!

 

[lunabkat]

Man, nothing is safe anymore

My dd 7 had the first nosebleed incident a couple of months ago, bam, outta nowhere, its so weird. Looks awful too, glad it isn't painful...

Hey Losers,
I am home and chilling out. DH John has pork chops and veggies and rice cooking. I told him today that is what I want before I left for work and now I want pizza.

 

[mdrob214]

Hey everyone. I survived the commissary. Now I have to decide if it's worth going back for case deals tomorrow. WTH, it's just more money .

DS is going to a new BS troop tonight to check them out. Keep your fingers crossed for us that he likes it. I don't know how much of that other troop I can handle. Between the kinfe-wielder and the bully I am like every time he goes to a sout event!

DD is off school as of 11 tomorrow. Is she and all her friends don't walk down to Runza for lunch, then I have been told I may take her out to lunch! Lucky me . Maybe we'll get pedicures or something.
