Who here is not in the "clique" like me? Part 4

Not open for further replies.
There was a thread here on the Community Board that asked the question of “what shampoo do you use” or something like that.

Anyway………..that got me to thinking………We go through a LOT of shampoo and conditioner at my house. DW has long hair so she can go through a bottle of conditioner in a week. Courtney’s hair is very curly/wavy/frizzy, so we use conditioner on her hair every time it gets washed – which is usually every night. And the boys are in a swimming pool a lot, so they use a lot of conditioner because of the chlorine.

Well, that brings me to my question……is there a product that you seem to buy a LOT of at the store? For me, I guess it would be shampoo, conditioner, and laundry detergent. Again, with 5 people in the family, we do a lot of laundry.

What product do you seem to have to buy a lot of?
 
Where is everyone? :confused3

I didn't mean to scare everyone away!! Come Back!! Come Back!!
 
Hi Pozey!:wave: Did you scare everybody off?:rolleyes1 I'm home for a quick lunch before heading back up to school. The thing I find myself buying the most is body wash. We can go through a bottle in a couple of days. Both of my DDs use way way too much, but at least I know they are clean!;) I also am forever buying shaving cream. I swear Brittany uses a can for each leg every time she takes a shower (Shhhhh, don't tell her I mentioned her shaving her legs on here, she'll have a fit!:rotfl2: )

O.k. break time over. :surfweb:
 
Zach was over tonight and asked Briana if they were taking Lilly tomorrow, Friday and Sat. Bree very calmly told him no, she is too young yet. She can spend one night but no more. His reaction. "Oh, OK"

She was so proud of herself for not agreeing to something she didn't really want to do.
Good for Bree!!!


[
Well I talked to Brittany last night about the situation she has gotten herself in. She admitted to ditching her friends because she thought this group was more popular and they didn't like the other girls Brittany hung out with. She said how they are starting to treat her the same way they were treating the other girls. So now she is worried about apologizing to her old friends that they won't forgive her. Why do kids have to be so mean to each other? Can't everyone just get along? :sad2: So frustrating!!! So I did tell her that she needed to decide what she wanted true friends or to be in the "popular" club with kids that are not really all that nice to begin with. So we will see. Thanks for the advice DznyFan, it really did help!:)

Oh before I forget, the guy from the city called the other day. He didn't sound like he was going to be of much help. They think some of the damage we have is from our windows. Apparently this subdivision when it was built, the contractor put in crappy windows. There was a lawsuit and won, everyone got money to replace their windows, but the people that owned the house just took the money and never replaced them. So my little brain is a working on my next move. I am going to call our lawyer because the faulty windows were never disclosed to us. This however does not take care of the problem from my siding dude, I still have to deal with him. He will be sorry he messed with me, boy!;)

O.k. I'm off, have a great day everyone!
That sounds like a great start for both you and Brittany. It's tough - just hang in there!! You're welcome! I wish I had known a long time ago what I know now...

I hope you are able to get some kind of resolution after you call in the big dogs!
 

I just wanted to pop in and say hi.

pozey, good luck on the job search.

As for the question at hand, we buy a lot of tea. I pretty much only drink Lipton Sweetened No Lemon. Other than that, we don't go through a lot of "stuff" because it's just the two of us.

Nicole, good luck!!! Don't be nervous; you'll do great!

I hope everyone is having a good day. I'm off to catch up.
 
Hi guys, I just wanted to pop in for a quick hello. There's too much for me to catch up on!! pozey: good luck with the job hunt, it can be very frustrating to work at a job you dislike. Nicole: good luck with the interview, I know you'll do well! If you don't get the job, at least you will have gotten some practice at interviewing. 2x: nice to see you around here! Amy: welcome, please come back anytime. Everyone else: hi!
 
/
Hey everyone!
Real quick before I head off to work.

Pozey, good luck job hunting! I'll be thinking of you. We go through a lot of shower gel...or I just buy a lot of shower gel because I'm an addict...also a lot of Diet Coke with Lime!

Nicole, good luck with your interview! That would be awesome!

2x, that balloon release sounds neat. What a touching tribute to your grandma.

Angela, have a wonderful trip!

Lesa, good luck getting this mess straightened out! Yuck!

Michelle, lock those kids in a closet! Just kidding....or am I...
 
Linda-- You'll love Hawaii. The whales certainly put on a show! They are really fun to watch. You should try looking at tripadvisor.com under the Hawaii forums-- there's some great info to be found there if you are willing to weed through some of the other stuff.
I have been checking that site out. Its awesome. thank you. Where did you say you went? I was thinking maybe we could do Honolulu/Waikiki area and the Maui island? I feel clueless. When it comes to wdw and/or dcl...no problem, been there done that..but this yikes! I always like to be prepared! I'll definitely be scouring that site up and down! Thanks so much. Good luck getting everything ready to move. that would be so exciting!

“it really is a small world” moments……
That is too funny, my dr. did the same thing. her son was in Kennys class at preschool too. Actually it was Kenny and her talking:rotfl: he heard her say her last name and he was like...as in "so and so Becker?"...she says...yeah, that is my son. it was too cute!

yep. Danced and sang thru almost an entire number holding her skirt together/up in the back with one hand.
OMG... glad Erin made it through ok. I would have about died!

please tell me if I'm being to strict......
No you're not being too strict. Yes, I really think Dznyfan gave you some great advice! I'm like you, I try to remember what it was like for me and try to prevent it from happening or help Kenny as much as you can to begin with, but sometimes it is so tough. He's only 6, its gonna get much worse. Good luck, I'm glad you had a nice talk with her.

One of my brothers is the complete opposite. He would (and still does) what his "friends" do. This lead to a time where he moved to VA to be with his girlfriend and ended up doing crystal meth (he's now off, thank god). Still, he did this to fit in with her and her friends. I know that's an extreme, but it happens.
omg...glad he is off of it now. I am so glad I wasn't like that. I can say I'll be 30 and I've never tried any illegal drug... never smoked a cigarette...nothing... yes, I might have been/or am boring according to some:confused3 but I'm sure glad I never started anything like that! That stuff can ruin peoples lives, if not take it all together!

they're just being miniature jerks that will some day grow up and be full grown jerks.
Isn't that the truth!

Anyway, my interview was very promising.
Minnie seems to be a little better today
Yay for a great interview! Glad Minnie seems to be better too!

Linda...yep I remember that your DH does not like Tubby. Does he think if they loose they will fire him?

I finally made it to the Y today after taking about a year off from exercise. I'm sure I will be whining tomorrow about how sore I am. My DH mentioned a 5K "family" race coming up...sounds like a good goal.
He is sure hoping so!!!
Whine all you want! you'll definitely deserve it. That is an awesome goal. I really wish I had more time to exercise...but being gone 12 hrs a day 5 days a week... I'd rather spend that time w/Kenny:rolleyes1 but maybe soon I can change my schedule some. Good luck. :hug: we're here routing for you!:cheer2:

Well, I am quite a catch!!
:rotfl: yes you are pozey!

Listen, I have been mostly lurking for the past four years (even back when the debate board was around), rarely post, except about vacation stuff....I am definitely not in the clique but I still love THE DIS!!!
Hello and welcome maddiesmommie! Come join us here anytime!

The cable guy came this afternoon. As soon as he got here I called Blake and had him come home. I knew the guy would have questions and I wouldn't be of any help

I had such a bad day that I went and took a nap while he was here. I needed it and still will be able to sleep tonight!
I don't blame you w/wanting Blake there. I've had the same problems! Actually had one steal a $200 gift card out of our dresser:mad:
Glad you got a nap! It can make all the difference for me! Tell Bree I got her thank you note, she is very welcome.

I called Barb and told her I was 2 seconds from quitting, if she wanted to talk me out of it she better come find me

When I was telling Blake about it and told him that I almost quit I was stunned...he said why didn't you, then you could stay home and watch Lilly?:eek: I was shocked. That was not what I expected him to say!

Zach was over tonight and asked Briana if they were taking Lilly tomorrow, Friday and Sat. Bree very calmly told him no, she is too young yet. She can spend one night but no more. His reaction. "Oh, OK"

She was so proud of herself for not agreeing to something she didn't really want to do.

I'm going to bed now. Have a great night.
OH.... I think I would quit today after hearing Blake say that:eek: :banana: that is awesome!!! Yay for Briana sticking up for what she truly wants w/Lilly and the visitation arrangements!!

I will promise to stay away from the ice cream and Girl Scout cookies and Peanut M&M's and Cheetos and Buttered popcorn....


ETA:: PUT THOSE CHIPS DOWN, QUEENIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:rotfl: I should do that too:rolleyes1 but not those Dilly bars from DQ! ;)

Good Morning ALL!!!

Have a great day!!

If you see me posting in the middle of the day again, maybe I've finally had it and walked out!:tiptoe:
I don't blame you a bit...

Morning everyone. Hope everyone is having a great day………’cause I’m not. I am really beginning to dislike my job more each day. It’s not the people, it’s just the “type” of work that I am doing.
I know what you mean! For me its the opposite. I don't mind the work at all...it is the people! I hope you can find a new position where you feel more comfortable. I guess I'm like that too. I don't feel like I get to use the skills and experience I have. Good luck, I'm sure you can find something somewhere else that is more rewarding:hug:

Linda----I had to laugh yesterday when I was over at my mom's house. She was playing with her cell phone and wanted a picture to put next to my name when I call. Well, I was DISing and I was scrolling through our thread and one of your posts came up. She says, "stop"-----and proceeds to take a picture of your picture of the castle (for some reason it is HUGE on my account still)------so now, every time I call her on her cell phone, your castle pic comes up. I told her all royalties need to go to Linda.

I need to run----I am meeting two of my cousins and their children for lunch today before I head in to work. We are going to the cemetery to do a "balloon release" for my grandma-----it's been one year that she has passed.
Have a great day!!!!
Now Kenny will think our picture is famous:lmao: that is too awesome!!! I love it. Mike said we'll be down to collect :rotfl: glad she liked it!

:grouphug: that is awesome having a balloon release for your grandma. :hug:

Just think of all the mini vacations we could go on!

: There was a lawsuit and won, everyone got money to replace their windows, but the people that owned the house just took the money and never replaced them. So my little brain is a working on my next move. I am going to call our lawyer because the faulty windows were never disclosed to us. This however does not take care of the problem from my siding dude, I still have to deal with him. He will be sorry he messed with me, boy!

O.k. I'm off, have a great day everyone!
mini vacations sound great!
It does sound like you have grounds on the windows issue. I'd be so mad!!! Yeah, that still doesn't help w/the siding:headache: . Good luck Lesa!

There was a thread here on the Community Board that asked the question of “what shampoo do you use” or something like that.
Wow, there are only 3 of us...but we don't go through that much of anything. I did go to cosmetology school in HS so every since then I've only bought professional products. I have long hair too and I only buy new bottles once every few months! I only use about the size of a quarter on my hair. For Kenny I only use about 1/2 that. I use a bottle of baby shampoo on his hair...a bottle every few months...and yes, we bathe every day:rotfl: at least once. usually more b/c I have to shower after getting in the hot tub;) or out of the tanning bed! Then again, Mike does the shopping for the most part:rolleyes1 so I could be clueless on some things ;)


I have a job interview with a travel agency today!!!! I am so scared! If I am hired I start on Monday. I haven't been on a real interview in 7 years.
good luck Nicole!!! That would be awesome! You'll do fine!

I hope you're all having a great day. I started out to work but the roads were so icy! I could only go 40 on the freeway and I am not one of those scared, only drive 1/2 of what everyone else is driving kind of people.... I said forget it, turned around and went back home! I'm so glad I did!!

Have a safe trip Angela!!! Cant wait to hear about it and see pix!
 
oh and another thing....WHAT is Sanjaya still doing on AI:confused3 :eek: :scared1: :eek: :confused3 :sad2: Sorry, just had to get that one out!
 
Is this a clique? Should I just go back to my Focker friends?
 
It's OK, Miz Diz, you can come by here anytime. We're real friendly!!
(cue Deliverance music)

Really, :welcome: Miz Diz!
 
oh and another thing....WHAT is Sanjaya still doing on AI:confused3 :eek: :scared1: :eek: :confused3 :sad2: Sorry, just had to get that one out!

LALALALALALALAAAAAA -- Where is that sticking fingers in ears smiley? I haven't watched AI yet, don't tell me who got booted!!

:rolleyes1 You didn't miss much!;)

:welcome: Miz Diz

Errrrrr...Who is moving the smilies one at a time now! The welcome smilie is not where it was this morning. :mad: Someone is sure getting a good laugh!;)

Linda...It's icy where your at?:scared1: I'm done with this crappy cold weather. I must say, it is very sunny here today.:sunny:

Nicole...Good luck with your interview!:wizard: I know what you mean when you say your scared about going on an interview after so many years. I haven't worked in :scratchin 12 years.:scared1: I'm ready to go back, but filling out the ap and going for a job interview scare the dickens out of me!:rolleyes1

Well gotta run. School sent home 10 books for me to type up and there is a deadline.:eek: The pressure is on.:rolleyes1
 
Hey everyone :)

I hope you all had a nice day!! Nothing new here, its rainy and I think I'm making dinner for once :rolleyes: , stuffed shells. Last night I was sleeping good until Jeremiah started laughing in his sleep :confused: What a weirdo! I made him go out on the couch. :teeth:

Pozey, I'm sorry about your job frusteration. Hope you find something better soon!!! To answer your question, no matter what we always buy a 12 pack of Coke and some toilet paper unless we get the really big pack the week before :rolleyes1 We use alot of paper towels too. I also get that powder for the carpet because I go through a bottle of it from vacuuming so much!! I like to drive my neighbors crazy :teeth:

Linda, where have yoooou been? I agree about Sanjaya. :rolleyes1
 
The interview went well. My mom wants me to finish school because I'd have to quit, but I would be getting experience, that's better than reading a textbook, right? I'll know tomorrow if I got the job or not.
 
Is this a clique? Should I just go back to my Focker friends?
Welcome Miz Diz. You're welcome here anytime!

Well gotta run. School sent home 10 books for me to type up and there is a deadline.:eek: The pressure is on.:rolleyes1[/QUOTE]it was icy this morning. It was really bad. I tried to head down but it was ridiculous. No salt and nothing but ice...the paper said 28 accidents just in our small area. The crazy part was by noon, everything was fine. By 3 the roads were completely dry! I'm done w/the crappy weather too!:sad2:

you haven't worked in 12 years... oh that would be SOOOO nice!!Ahhhh. Well, having 2 children [B]IS[/B] work!

Linda, where have yoooou been? I agree about Sanjaya. :rolleyes1[/QUOTE]yummm stuffed shells sounds delicious! Yesterday was crazy busy at work. I kept popping in to read but couldn't post. My boss was sitting behind me:rolleyes1 then by the time I got home I didn't feel too good. Just had to be a couch potato ;) So Jeremiah was laughing in his sleep:rotfl: maybe he was dreaming about torturning mannequins in the mall:laughing:

I have a job interview with a travel agency today!!!! I am so scared! If I am hired I start on Monday. I haven't been on a real interview in 7 years. :scared1:
Nicole.....how did your interview go?!? Hopefully you knocked their socks off!!

Edit.....I guess I should just READ, huh?!?

Glad it went well.
 
More on my job stuff......

One of the frustrations of my job is that they are again blocking websites, so I may be posting much less...

On a brighter note......I made a couple of calls and already have a couple of good leads. I should know more by next week. I'm glad I have some great former bosses and co-workers who will make calls for me and help me out if they can.
 
Thanks for the welcome. I have been staying on the Focker thread too long and trying to branch out and not be a Focker Snob.

All of you seem to know each other really well, though.
