oops!
She later must have had multiple versions of her post, as I got to read them as folks quoted them.
thanks for the pics TM4D.
Have another Keurig cup HDD.
I know sending your son to your sister was tough for you. If he has decided to stay, that must mean he is happy there and happy is a good thing. I hope along with that you are seeing some of the changes you were hoping for. Hang in there! And don't let one child (pain in the butt that he may be!) steal all your energy.
Poop story from many moons ago: Son grabbed food coloring and drank it. I cleaned him up as well I could and didn't think much more about it. Next morning I opened the poopy diaper to some extremely vivid teal, green, blue contents. Prettiest poop you've ever seen. I saved the diaper for DH to see. He wasn't impressed.

Better go to sleep a bit earlier than usual so I will have time to come read the poop stories tomorrow.

Why do I stay up so late and get up so early.
Well, I am off to work today.. 12 hour day, so it will be a long one! But, work is good to keep your mind busy..
Yesterday I worked for a few hours, went to target, lunch, kmart, then 2 more targets.. then we had the dress fitting and dinner with friends.. then hit walmart before we came home. We were out for over 10 hours.. My toddler was so tired, she passed out in the car on the way home at 8:45.. she never goes to bed that early. We brought her in and put her to bed and she slept until 8 this morning.. she woke up, drank a juice box, then fell back asleep with DH and I in the bed.. It is now almost 10 am and she is still sleeping.. I guess she literally shopped til she dropped!
hit 4 targets on monday. nearby that doesn't put up clearance signs had finally put them up sunday morn so all the cups and plates and cutlery were gone. was 90 off, got almost all my hidden stash and since i'd done multiples, even if one was gone, the other was still there. left w/ 2 carts full. a few things may go back. going thru all my treasure is on today's to do list. while i was there the employees discovered it was 90 off after this other lady w/ a cart full told them. at first i thought she was an sd'er but i heard her talking to the employees and don't know if she was faking it, but it sounded like she'd just got lucky and scanned something and found it was all 90 off. no snowcone makers even though it showed in stock, they were bringing out the small ice cream makers and snow cone cups. i will post a story in deals later after i read 200+ posts over there and find out what the drama was all about.
2nd target had been 80 off on friday and still 80 off. decided to buy some waterguns that i didn't think about at the first target. those may end up going back.
3rd target 70 off and they'd moved what was left to 2 endcaps and had set up back to college. did find 2 adult captain chairs mixed in w/ the reg stuff. didn't buy fruit snacks b/c at 70 off, not free.
4th target 75 off, nothing left except the cheap metal and the plastic water bottles and some other stuff. some hidden deals mixed in w/ the reg stuff but not cheap enough to buy.
on tues a friend had invited us to go to a meet and greet and game for my dh's favorite team. it's in the city so driving and parking is an issue. she strongly hinted to pick her and her son up which we ended up doing. hr to her house, hr to stadium, we were early and then the organizers were late so we waited in the heat, thankfully in the shade. dh got pics w/ 5 players, free hotdogs and soda and his team won so he was happy. didn't get home till midnite and then i was up till 4am.:O
yesterday i ordered my glasses at lens crafters. yes i know i can get them cheaper online but this last pair i've had to have so many adjustments to, i'd rather get them local so i can just go get them fixed. but if something happens to these, that's probably where i'd go to replace them until i needed a new eye exam. special ordered filters at lowes so in a few hrs spent 750 buckaroos.
lisa- great news about trevor!
warning- extra long multiquote! eta- ok, 31 smilies. not going in to get it to 10 so i'm just disabling to get my post up.
I told my son we had to start reducing - give some away - have the yard sale I keep pretending I am going to have, etc. etc.
I took a big load of stuff to a former student of mine. Her husband is disabled - in a wheel chair. She is not a whole lot better - and fighting to get on disability. I figured I could use some stuff - and loaded some up and took it to them. I freed up some space in my freezer. When I helped her put the food away - they had NOTHING (big zero) in their freezer at all. (well...except for ice). Very little in their refrigerator. I love ice tea - and so they made some ice tea when they knew I was coming - and used their last tea bags. (So I was happy I took them a box of tea.) They were tickled to get some food, soap, OTC meds, etc.
When I got home my son's friend came over. He had a sometimes kind of sort of girlfriend or something with him. So my son asked if he could offer them some stuff. I give his friend some stuff from time to time. But I mostly give him stuff we have a lot extra of - not stuff I got for me - or stuff I have been putting aside for a yard sale.
But the girl - :omg: acted like she just won Supermarket Sweeps - She started digging through stuff - filling bags. :eek: I saw her grabbing my NEW shower curtain -:mad: that I fought so hard to get:numchuck:. She started cramming Mr. Clean magic erasers in a sack. :eek: Granted - she is developmentally disabled too (as is my son) - and I don't mind giving her stuff she needs...or even wants - but I certainly don't want her building an ENTIRE STOCKPILE from my stockpile. It was over the top. She was grabbing some of the proglides asking "Can girls use these?" I told her those were for my son - and started offering her some schick 2 count packs. :lol: She was holding up stuff asking my son't friend "Here. Do you want this?" He would say NO - and she was trying to talk him into taking it... (Head and Shoulders, Dove Men's 6 pack bars of soap...etc...)
Uhmmmm - he SAID he didn't want it - and I am saving that for my yard sale, thank you...
I told my son that from now on *I* will decide what to give people - and he is not to invite them to go on a free shopping spree in my stockpile. I am not totally greedy - but I also don't want to give a girl we see from time to time free reign to just fill bags and bags at my expense - even if I got lots of the stuff for free.
The girl, for what it was worth, seemed to think she was doing us a favor by taking it off our hands....
Well, at least we have a purchase agreement now we just need to get ours on the market the next few days and get it SOLD! Please :pray: that it sells fast.
She does not give him milk at all.. He has no allergy or lactose intolerance that has even been diagnosed, but she is convinced that he stays sick more often if he drinks milk.. says he gets more colds and ear infections :dontknow: I told her I never heard of that.. but it is even odder that she gives him cheese and other dairy..
or is it the usual love/hate relationship....
when i was at bff's beach condo for 3 days helping her w/ her kids, she told me her kids even the 3yr olds don't drink milk anymore. wth, i didn't believe her as i don't believe a lot of things she says. i insisted on buying some for my coffee. i'd brought free nesquik pouches AC from the supermarket and asked all the kids if they'd drink choco milk. bff ended up buying a gallon of milk and w/ my encouragement we actually ran out in 3 days. i didn't even have coffee on the second day.
btw- it's not like they are allergic or anything. since her own diet is poor (she can't poop b/c of it), she doesn't put in the work to get them to eat healthy either.
that's my contribution to poop today.
It's a split level house. It has 3 bed, 2 bath, 1 car garage that dh wants to eventually finish out and make more living space. The playset is not staying. :sadwalk: But... I'll have a fenced backyard and that's going to be awesome!
btw- how's bunnies' tomatoes, peppers and cukes coming along? i think they should be ready to eat soon?
So, now, I am thinking.. it wasn't hurting before, and he says he got the decay.. so, I may leave the filling in and see how it feels.. if it doesn't bother me, then I may leave it for now.. and if it starts hurting, then I may decide on a root canal or extraction... I hate teeth problems :(
Been an emotional roller coaster of a day..
... got my oldest DD registered for classes at college and her student ID made.. she is officially a college student :) so proud of her, but can't believe she is growing up so fast.. I am not ready!
... had a dress fitting for the youngest and got her flower girl dress for upcoming wedding.. she looked beautiful ;) like a princess.. paid way too much for the dress and was wishing I could have gotten it at target with overage
..... my brother's surgery wasn't successful. They weren't able to do anything because of the large amounts of swelling he had, they are changing his meds and will give him a few days to see what happens :(
..... my oldest son called tonight.. not sure if you remember, but we basically made him go away for the summer to work with my sister and we haven't seen him since May.. well, now he decided he isn't coming home :crying:
If I were a drinker, I would need one about now! Somebody have one for me.. tootsie, M2C ??
And, my stupid face is sore and bruised from the root canal that I didn't even get to finish yesterday :faint:
Okay, now that I have officially brought down the mood in here, I am going to bed...
Tomorrow is a new day. and I am hoping to come on here and read about poop!
Why do I stay up so late and get up so early.
L2B: So sorry to hear about brother and his surgery. My
Lisa: forgot to say congratulations about Trevor!! Has he been discharged yet?
Great shopping day for me. Found a few toys I wanted at 75% off but will be
Picked the boys up from school this afternoon and my oldest son's teacher pulled me in her office and told me how much he misbehaved today. Kicking mulch at people, spitting, refusing to nap/rest, and actively trying to wake his classmates up by kicking the wall. I was mortified/shocked/many many emotions. It is very unlike him to do any of those things. Needless to say we had a long talk, he ate dinner and reluctantly went to bed at 6:30. He was asleep within 5 minutes. I hope his attitude was just from being tired...he had kind of a restless night last night...we all did. At one point, all 4 of us were sandwiched in the bed like a bunch of sardines
On a positive note, oldest DS has been in undies every day for the last 2 weeks and no accidents at school.
Tootsie: my avatar is actually a picture of my son sitting in a dark room.
Did get a little bit of good news today. I was given an estimate of $1500 out of pocket for our portion of a dental bridge, total cost of $4500. I had to have a tooth pulled last year that had broken under a crown. Boohoo that was already $2000 invested in that tooth between crown and root canal.

The framing on the house is almost totally done. I'm thinking that they'll be able to start putting the roof on next week. We went by tonight and we can now get upstairs and walk through to see where all the rooms are going to be. It's so neat to actually walk through the floor plan. Since it's totally our design we never walked a spec or model home. So very cool.
I read this really fast and thought... what farking bridge is she having fixed??? I wasn't thinking dental!

first i thought, they own a bridge???!! then, i kept looking for clues on town names, subdivision something, thinking wow that's some community, making people pay for a bridge, in addition to their taxes.
i had to read the message 3 times, and slowly, before i picked up on dentist.
whatcha drinking? i want some.
Hey all
