Two years ago today we met at Fishlips for dinner.

Oh Deb, what memories!!!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

I'm going to miss you then I'm cruising the 16-23!

So I'll be getting off on the 16th and you'll be getting on. We could have a mini meet at the terminal. Lisa and Darrell will be getting off also. PARTY!

I think I'm just now coming to terms with the changes at my workplace that were actually implemented in Dec 08, especially financially I would look for employment elsewhere, but I am not willing to give up my 4 weeks vacation time for one or two weeks at this stage of my life.

I may have to give up Thanksgiving at Ian's and Alaska

I haven't accepted acquiescence quite yet though. I am feeling defiant! I refused to turn the furnace on last night, though it was freezing and I have packed my lunch for work all week

OH NO!!! How very sad. But I fully understand. Everyone is being affected by this terrible economy. Lots of changes going on and none of them good. At least you were able to do the EBTA.

So I go out for one night and I feel like I should go to sleep now... 8 PM!!! Am I getting old!!!

Tomorrow is the Annual "Lets Celebrate Mothers Day &&&& the QM's Bday" Dinner. Our neighbor Joyce is coming for dinner (which I am cooking) and we will have cake and such after.

The QM's bday isn't until Thursday... but it's usually around mothers day so we do it together.

Mom got some very pretty flowers from my brothers, my sister is sending cash for clothes and I'm giving her and IOU... (she does that to me all the time, then we go and pick out something she WANTS rather than what I just get her...)

Happy Birthday celebration to the QM!!! Enjoy and Cheers!

My friend Heather, her husband Tom and daughter Bethany are flying into Barcelona soon for one of those cruises. Heather's worried about their flight to Barcelona being affected.

I know Heather and Tom and Bethany....Heather was so supportive when I was in the hospital the first time with my leg. I'm sorry that we didn't get to spend a lot of time with them on the PC cruise. But we saw them at Disneyland afterwards for a bit.

I would be soooooooooo worried about the flight to Barcelona right now. Hopefully they won't be affected, but how scary that it's so uncertain. It depends on which way the wind blows. That's not comforting. I'll keep positive thoughts for them that everything goes well and that there are no complications.

My head has been pounding all day today. First time in a while, so I'm not complaining much, but was dozing on and off most of the day, didn't get dressed until 3pm. Tyler was such a good sport though, and found lots to do. He cleaned a little colored, played Webkinz online, did a whole workbook of writing practice that I got him for Christmas, and watched a couple DVDs.

We went out for groceries and then out for pizza for supper, then some more shopping because we forgot stuff the first time. We cleaned the inside of our car really well, then Tyler read 133 pages of a "Dick and Jane" book. Only 10 more pages to go, but he just decided he'd had enough. He did a GREAT job too! So then he had me Google "Dick and Jane" to see what other books he can get like the one he has.

I'm going to go watch "Survivor" from this past Thursday and head to bed, hoping to get rid of my headache by tomorrow.

133 PAGES.....OMG that's awesome!!!!! GO TYLER GO!!!!

Happy Saturday!

It was a nice day up here. Sunny! Getting up and going to the girls soccer games is so much better when its sunny and not freezing/raining. Both girls are enjoying their first season of outdoor soccer, and Kaleigh is enjoying having her daddy coach. Luckily 4 of the 5 kids are fairly good at listening, so Ken isn't going batty dealing with them all.

Time to share some pictures again.
Here's the girls last week showing off their art:

And here's a shot of Shaelyn when she was starting to get the hang of riding her bike without me hanging on:

Tomorrow my plans for Mothers Day are to have breakfast in bed. Shaelyn has already told me I have to stay in bed so they can do it. She gave me the choice of toast or cereal Hopefully it will be sunny, as I want to take the girls out with their bikes and let Shaelyn get some confidence, as she is so close to mastering her bike.

Michelle - glad you enjoyed Danny Quinn. Happy early Birthday to the QM!

Deb - is Kris ever a yo-yo for things looking up and then falling apart. Hopefully this time it all goes well

Kathe - 4weeks vacation is hard to walk away from! Hope you are able to make it all work and still get your Thanksgiving trip

Holly - hope your headache goes away fast. You sure have been getting less of them compared to a year ago Its awesome that Tyler's enjoying reading now!

Marilyn - when is UK mother's day? I remember it isn't the same as US/Canada but can't recall when.


Happy Mother's Day to everyone, whether you're celebrating or not!

LOVE the pics Shannon....thanks for posting. I hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day breakfast in bed.

Yes, poor Kris is so lost and unwanted....I have to feel very sorry for him. I hope he can work it out this time too.

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Oh Deb, what memories!!!

....sigh.....to be treasured forever!

 

[EllaEnchanted]

Ian, hugs to you friend. I'm so sorry that you have to leave home tonight already to go back to working in NY. I'm even more sorry that you'll have to be travelling there for 2 weeks out of 4 every month.

It's great that you had some time off in between to spend a week with Sukie at the happiest place on earth. Sorry it was so hot though. I enjoyed reading all about your trip. Glad that you got to see Monica this time. I'm looking forward to October. We'll see you then.

My brother just called. He wanted to know if I was going to bring flowers to the mausoleum for mom today. I said nope. It's too sad and depressing and I'm not going there today. I would prefer to not think about it. I'll go on a different weekend...when it's not so hard.

Happy Mother's Day to everyone, whether you're celebrating or not!

Shannon, I love the chalk artwork the girls did outside, very cute! And YAY SHAELYN for mastering her bike! VERY cute that they gave you breakfast in bed.

Yes, I do have less trouble with headaches. I do get them almost as often, but they're usually only for a day, where they used to be 2 or 3 days long, and they're much less intense. I used to have to lay around feeling my head throb with every movement, but now I can at least function when I have one (most people can't even tell when I have one) because they're so much more tolerable.

 

[HollyTyler]

Holly, hope you wake up headache free. Well done to Tyler. There will be no stopping him now!!!

Marilyn, my mom was so happy for Tyler, she had a new book for him when she came to town today. This one is just as long as the "Dick and Jane" one he just read, I think the new one is 140 pages and it's called "Morris the Moose". He immediately started reading it, but only the first 3 or 4 pages. He's hooked!

Deb, that's a good example of what kind of person Heather really is, all the time.

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for them too about their flight.

 

[HollyTyler]

133 PAGES.....OMG that's awesome!!!!! GO TYLER GO!!!!

I know! Each page only has a couple short sentences on it, but that's still a lot for a kid who just read his first whole book a few days ago!
