HAPPY BIRTHDAY JORDAN!

And many hugs for the teenager's mother
Sherry I will be there with you, in 18 more days Cameron will be
a teenager. Where did the time go?

 

[dizneenut]

Thanks for the b-day wishes.
Rose Mary, thanks for the hugs......I'll need them.
I don't know where time goes.

It goes way too fast.

No school for Julian today. Went to the bus stop and the driver told them that there was no school due to no heat. He was thrilled.
Jonathan is home again today. Still has a stomach ache and has a slight sore throat.

Karen, hope you can squeeze a nap in sometime today.

 

[believe]

Liz...what a jerk! You know you can do this..you go girl!

Lily...it is always great when you can get the work done cheaper!

Sherry...How many additional grey hairs did you get this morning?????

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JORDAN!

Karen...when will people learn to help, rather than hurt. They should be thankful for all you do, with not being well.

 

[Tiger Lily 03]

Happy Birthday Jordan!
Sherry,
Yippee for Julian!
Sherry,

RM, you are right, the time goes by all too quickly.

Amanda, Morning! Wassup?

Karen, good luck with the doc visit today. Wish that you will be able to resolve your health issues for a better new year.

Last year was the year of vacations, this year seems like the year of the cars. DS #2 was involved in a car accident --no injuries--during some of the bad weather we have had and his car is damaged. Accident happened on the freeway so we are greatful that there was no one hurt. DS has been without his car for going on 2 weeks now.

That will about do it for this portion of crummy news. Another installment later.

Hi to everyone! Have a great day!

 

[Pam]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JORDAN!!

Beth - sorry that your two will be moving.

Nancy - love Lily's outfit! I do like it soooo much more than this year's BaB's version!! I need to get Bubba's V-Day outfit up to my Mom. We bought him the Cupid outfit, complete with Joe Boxer heart boxer shorts.

Karen - I don't think you are being asked to take on something else - I believe it's suggested that you exchange Team Kid for Bible Study. If you don't want to do that, then just give up TK and have some free time. It sounds as though you need to clean your slate and let someone else pick up the slack.

I was asked to be a Sunday School teacher for grades 3-5. I turned them down and explained that I could cuss like a sailor at times and didn't think I would be presenting a very good role model. I think I stunned the poor lady. I don't think too many people ever confess to having bad traits!

Tara - poor Jarrod! I hope he feels better soon. Draining sinuses are the pits!

Sherry - my DS is home sick, too. Stomach virus. The dog is estastic to have a buddy, though. They are on the couch together. The cat is happy, too, since the dog is not chasing her all over the house.

Lily - glad the repair $$$$ went down.

Well I got an interesting email from the director of childrens ministries. Seems she thinks I need more God in my life and thinks I need to go to a bible study instead of doing Team Kid. She says I have lost the joy I once had.

Is it possible that she was realizing you needed a break and was suggesting that instead of working in Team Kid, you go to a Bible study offered at the same time?

That way it isn't to add more on your plate, but to relieve you of some of the stress and allow you to take a class for you instead of having to teach one.

Of course, I didn't read the tone of her email, but I'm trying to find a silver lining.

Headed to bowling tonight. Not sure I'll get back tonight.

You often get lucky at the bowling alley? You just can't resist a man in those shoes can you Tara?

(If y'all read about my "accidental" injury in a freak bowling ball accident, you'll know she came after me for that one)

 

[Meriweather]

Good morning.

Happy Birthday, Jordan!!

Yes, where does the time go??

Cute outfit, Pam.....I bet Bubba will like it. Who (or what) will he shoot first??
I'm waiting for my order to come. Geoff and M'Cori are getting Sleeping Beauty and Prince Charming, box of chocolates and roses for their VD present.

Girls day today, so I will be heading out in a few.

Have a good day everyone.

 

[Tiger Lily 03]

Alan, there's a story about you and bowling shoes? Here I'm taking the purely innocent version and just thinking that those shoes sure are hot on a nice looking guy.

Nancy, have a great girls day.

Pam, hope your DS is feeling better too. Stay well.

Dogs were sick last week. Each one took a turn so last minute before we left for our weekend I made a rush to clean the rugs in our house. Good thing we have our own bigger cleaner as I think our little spot machine was not going to make me feel right. Pups are fine now--so far.

Hey Sherry, what's on the new teen's list of things to do for his fun day?

 

[DISNEYFANRI]

Good Morning Everyone!!

Nancy - Lily's outfit is just too cute!! Hope you have a good girls day out!

Rose Mary - good Mornin' to you!!

Sherry - Happy Birthday to Jordan.... - another teen boy in the house - woohoo!!!!

Karen - I hope you can get some rest today.


My DD (17) got into her first fender-bender yesterday - she was leaving a friends house along with another friend (think - steep snowy driveway) and slid right into her friends car... poor kids they were both pretty shaken (PD for them please) - looks like my Escape only has a bent license plate and cracked bumper ( I am schedueld to bring it in for recall work tomorrow so I wil have it checked)- her friends car is little so it sustained more damage....they are getting estimates....the friend is going from being nice and understanding to telling DD that she has to drive her around all the time now.....and so it goes.

DS is home sick today - "chest hurts" - not sure if it's a cold or anxiety - will know more when he wakes up.

I'll try to check in later....hugs to all.....

 

[2bemarried]

Happy Birthday Jordan!!!!! Sherry

 

[4greatboys]

Happy Birthday Jordan!!

Pam...asked to teach Sunday school but swearing like a sailor is bad?? Hmmm
I guess I need to get working on my swearing then.
Uh oh fender bender! Hope that works out okay.
Hope all the sickies out there get better soon! We have 4 sickies here and I hope the other 3 dont get it. Matthew and Evan so far have had it the worse with high fever and feeling so bad. Connor and Evan have drs appts today so I guess they will get them on some meds to help out--or atleast I hope so.

[lvs_eeyore]

Sneaking in from work. I guess what I mean by adding one more thing is yes I will be going there instead of Team Kid but there is homework and study involved with that also. I don't have the time or energy to put that much into something right now. I'm going to sit down with dh tonight and come up with a gameplan for me. I need to get my head straight and get myself out from feeling very overwhelmed. I think a lot has to do with the fact that Im exhausted all the time and right now especially stressed out. Just too much on my plate and something has got to go. Dh hit it on the head yesterday when he said I bet you wish you could go and hide under a bed for awhile. Yep that would be exactly how Im feeling. I need to cocoon in a bit for my own sanity.

 

[Pam]

Karen,
It sounds as though you just need to drop a few things from your schedule. Drop Team Kid and then just don't go to Bible Study.

I personally read the Bible every day, as well as praying. (Yeah - even with my potty mouth! ) I don't, however, take Communion at Church as I feel I am not at a place to be worthy of such an act. I've had many interesting talks with my pastor on this one. I am on 2 committees at Church - I tell them up front that I am not big on talking at meetings - just let me know what you need me to do and I'll get it done. So far it's worked out pretty good.

Over the years I stopped being the Mom who was in charge of everything - sat back and let someone else do it for a change. It's quite refreshing - and my kids and I were happier for it. My two admitted in their teens that they were quite resentful that I always gave my time and $$$ to others who didn't appreciate my efforts.

Sitting on the sidelines and being able to watch my kids participate in plays, sports, cheer, dance, Scouts etc. has been great. I have tons of photos and many more happy memories to cherish.

Deena - the poor lady got very quiet on the phone and then said, "Well, Pam.... you certainly are honest."

Hope all the sickies in your house get better soon!!

 

[isyne4u]

This just in......Orlando and Kate have split up!!

So if you are interested now is the time to get your mitts on him!!!

 

[alabamaalan]

Is this because he has been kept locked up with Antonio in Lainey's room?

And here she is trapped at sea with no way of getting to him.

 

[Pam]

OH NO!!! GASP!!!

First Jennifer and Brad now Orlando and Kate!!!!

What is this world coming to?? Is there no hope for any of us?????

Alan - if Lainey finds out - there will be calls of "Woman Overboard" as she frantically tries to swim ashore!!

 

[isyne4u]

Pam, I agree if Brad and Jenn, and now What'shisname and the girlfriend can't make it...I might as well just give up now and quit looking!!

Alan...I guess you will be the cabana boy to hold Elaine back so that she doesn't dis poor Luis for Orlando!!

 

[Tiger Lily 03]

Paula, glad that no one got injured in the wreck DD had. At least the gals are still speaking and hopefully will be after all this. Hope DS is doing ok.

Hey Kristy!

Deena, I guess maybe we should sign up for sailor school, or would that now be pirate school!

Hi Tara! Are you gonna be the good sistah and get hold of Orlando until Elaine returns?

Karen, I’m thinking that less is better for you just now.

Pam, sounds like you’ve got most things down. That was well said.

Alan, throw her a line.

Everyone, so--whatchadoin?
