Hey gang,

Jarrod and I survived yesterday...it was a tie 2 to 2!! :teeth: I promised not to rip his head off and he promised to not make me want to rip his head off!!

I went and ran errands today and now I'm putting together a poster display for school for tomorrow. We have started our March of Dimes fund raising and so we are doing a "Coins for Cuties" contest at school. We have baby pictures from people at the school and people will "vote" for the cutest by putting money into the baby bottles we have set up. I tried to get my team to help with this but I'm not having much luck. I had to go out and by the poster display board (3part folding board) and now I'm printing the pictures to decorate it with and then I'll put it all together. I just hope we make more than $10 off of it since I've already put more than $10 into it with the board and printing all these pictures for people!! (I didn't want original pictures on the board since I didn't want to run the risk of them becoming destroyed!)

I'll be back later!!

So we didn't move the hutch today. Oh well. Maybe some other day. Luis wound up getting work calls that he had to take (yes stupid execs working on Sundays) and then we wound up watching Band of Brothers (HBO mini series). Kind of depressing. We'll head back to church w/in the hour.

Sherry, we've had snow flurries too, but fortunately nothing has really stuck around. Looks like we will be getting weather in the 50s and even high 60s later this week! Looking forward to that ::yes::

Nancy, don't encourage Alan... I always thought it was peaceful here on weekends when he wasn't around :rotfl:

:duck:

Hope you had a good day out though :)

Kimmie, is that a new dishwasher? If so I would turn into big old meanie and say take it back! If it never worked right, I would want it replaced new with one that worked. I am so not nice like that though. I hope your grout finished up quickly though. For me I will be washing the paint on the house as soon as it warms up some. That's a job I am nto looking forward to!

Tara, good luck with teh poster making. Sorry that you've had to put so much into it yourself though. But I know that is for a great cause :)

I probably should get ready for church again. Sitting around all day though, has made me really tired.
 
Quiet day here today.

Had a nice day. Went out to eat after church, then to Walmart, then came home and watched Walk The Line. It was really good. :)

Kimmie, I hear you about the grout, etc. I hated that part when we put down tile last year, but the end result is soo worth it. :teeth:

Tara, good luck with the poster.

Well, I'm gonna get to bed soon. The boys are on Spring Break this week, but I still have to get up early to babysit my nephew. :rolleyes1
 
Sherry, glad you enjoyed your day! Sounds like a good one!

Liz, I forgot to say hi after you snuck in on me earlier today. Glad you got to just hang out too. It is nice! And yep, get to see you later this week! I can't wait :teeth:

Back from church and stuff... kind of tired so I am going to bed soon. Looks like GA is a rerun tonight *sigh*
 

Poster is as done as I can get it for tonight. I have to take it in tomorrow and get it finished before lunch time! Then during my lunch time I will be sitting in the cafeteria trying to get people to donate money!! Oh which reminds me, I need to get the baby bottles out to put the money in!!

Off to bed now!! good night gang!
tara
 
Morning!!

Today is the first day of Spring Break. I wish I could've slept in. :rolleyes1
 
Just a quick hello with my 8,900th post.

Craziness ensues here.

Have a great day, all.

Oh, with my 8,901 post, I have to ask when did Tara's kids grow up? My gosh, that picture in her signature--they are little men!
 
:wave2: Just stopping by before geting ready for the big first day! Lots going on around here...we will also be breaking ground today on our house!!!

Catch you all later! Have a great day!!

:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:
 
Morning, all.

Headed off in a few minutes for my whirlwind tour. Two hospitals, one day. Anyone care to join me? :teeth: Thursday's surgery is at a different hospital than today's, and I need to do my preop.

I'll check in around 8 or so...

Good morning.

Good luck, Suzanne. Hope everything goes smoothly.

Have a great first day, Liz.
 
Morning all! Slightly boring day here I think. Need to do laundry and then bake a cake. I eventually have to go shopping but am halfwy holding out until my dad gets home. I also probaby should stop by his place today.

Tara, glad you got hte poster done! I bet it looks great!

LOL, Sherry, I can imagine you'd want to. Are the boys up yet? :teeth: Oh and I meant to say i love your new countdowns :)

:wave2: Howdy Karen, hope the craziness leaves soon!

Good luck today, Liz! I hope that you'll have good news for us when we see you this weekend!

Best wishes to you Suzanne. I'll keep you in my thoughts today :hug:

Hi Nancy :wave2: Hi Kimmar :wave2:

Alan, I guess a guy living down there like you would know which people are which cousins. Kind of important when marrying ;)

Ouch, nice shot! :)
For the record, I have never dated my cousins. ::yes::
Naturally, I have made out with several of them, but I never took them anywhere.

I'm glad you had a non-scheduled weekend, btw :)
And I'm sorry that Luis had to field work calls yesterday too.


Sherry, yay for more family time and good luck with the car.

Beth, good luck with whatever you decide about the managerial position.

Where's Alan when you need him?? :rotfl:
He's reading about all the scrapping and wondering if he can buy videos of the highlights from the YYWL (YaYa Wrestling League)

Tiara, good luck with the bulletin board and all your cuties. My girls just completed a mathathon for St. Jude Children's Hospital

We enjoyed a visit from my parents this weekend. They also brought a copy of Chicken Little for the girls. We all enjoyed that one :)

:rotfl: Tell me about it!!! Jarrod will be 6 in less than a month and Ethan will be 2 in May :faint: Jarrod eats nothing, Ethan leaves nothing!! His favorite word now is "eeet"!! I can't imagine 4 boys like Sherry and Dena!! I go through 2 gallons of milk a week now and I'm floored by that. I can't imagine having 2 more boys around!!

OH and we had "the" talk yesterday! We were all in the car and we were discussing genetics...more specifically tongue rolling. I can't do it. Jarrod can't do it. So my mom said that because Jarrod's dad and I can't do it then he can't do it. So Jarrod asked if Ethan could do it and we said he didn't yet but he might be able to when he gets older. So then Jarrod asked "the" question. "Is my daddy Ethan's daddy?" :eek: oh great now I get to explain this, I was hoping to wait another 5 or 10 years before I had to explain that. :rotfl: So I did the Dr. Phil route...I gave him only the information he asked for. I explained that I wanted more kids and that his daddy and I weren't together so I went to a dr. who helped me get pregnant and we got Ethan. Other than a few inquiries as to what E's daddy looked like he was satisfied with my explanation!! Now his view of how people get babies is going to be totally screwed up!! :lmao: He'll never want to go to the dr. for fear of getting pregnant!! just kidding!!

gotta do some real work!! see you soon!
tara
 
LOL, Tara! Oh girl, your in for it when the boys get older. We can go through a gallon of milk A DAY!! I usually buy 4-6 gallons at a time. :eek:

Yes, Elaine, the boys are up. Have been for awhile. They don't get the whole sleeping in thing. :rolleyes1 :teeth:
 
Alan, you won't get pics from the YYWL, it's the YYWA silly :p
Glad y'all had a great weekend though :)

Tara, I am shocked with how big the kids are too! I forgot that Ethan was nearly 2 years old :eek: Somehow time really does fly!
And too funny about "the talk" I'm sure the kids won't wind up any more messed up than the rest of us ;)

Sherry, sorry that they don't really sleep in either. I know I usually enjoy just lazing around in the mornings when I can. Anything fun planned for any of the days they are off?

Moving slow today. I was feeling tired and hot, so I figured it was the spring weather. Was too lazy to go downstairs to check the thermostat. So I took my temp. I'm the one who is too hot... so we'll see how well the upstairs gets picked up today.
 
Evening all. I'm back home, and resting. Thought I'd be on the DIS for a while, but I'm sleepy.

Other surgery is TOMORROW! Apparently, the doctor didn't tell them Thursday and just said o schedule it!

Tara, I was never great at Biology, but the genetics stuff was so very interesting. When I was pregnant with the kids, I'd get ask what I was having. The answer was always "A blue eyed tenor", because Ed and I both sing tenor and we both have blue eyes.

When I wa a teen, my dad and sister took great pleasure in rolling their tongues at me. So I'm a hybrid and can't do it. Now Ed and the boys all do it to me. The last LI trip, the sisters whole family and my men ALL rolled their ongues at me.

...:scratchin: wonder what he thinks happens when ya go to the DENTIST!! :earseek:
 
:wave:

Boys played outside pretty much all day. Thankfully the weather is semi-warm here. I hate that we have Spring Break so early. Its usually still too cold or rainy/snowy for them to go outside. :rolleyes1

Elaine, no major plans. Just lots of video games, and outside for football and basketball as weather permits. :teeth:

Kimmar, :rotfl:

Suzanne, hope your able to rest. Good luck tomorrow. :hug:

I can't roll my tongue. :(
