Junie Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Well, we're not having French toast for dinner after all. :( The eggs that I bought on Monday apparently are part of the recall from a few weeks ago. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 The pantry is much improved and I have offered the kids $1 for each giant binder that they empty. (It involves taking papers out of page protectors.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junie Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I called customer service about the recalled eggs. They have refunded my account. Also, they gave me a $15 voucher as a thank-you for informing them of the problem. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad is doing well. We ended up not admitting him to Timber Ridge. We all agreed that if any of us had any misgivings, then we wouldn't stay. Dad refused, so he came home. There were a lot of reasons, that alone would be fine, but all together, it was a definite no, even though we were told that we were making a huge mistake. Mom is researching and doing therapies at home; he is doing speech and PT at the same place he was originally and mom is having him under going NAET by a friend of hers. The improvement he's gone through is amazing. There are still deficits, but we're confident that he will continue to improve. Mom ran into a woman who is in the same situation as her - they're 10 months into the journey. She's also a Christian, so she's been a wonderful encouragement and source of information for mom. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I'm fairly certain I woke a sleepwalking John by screaming at him for not paying attention. He had woken up both of his siblings by turning all the lights on and yelling that the audiobook was skipping (it wasn't) and he just kept running up and down the hall yelling so I finally yelled back and he stopped, looked at me, started bawling and said "I'm so sorry! I'm so so sorry!" It was awful. I felt terrible. I hugged him while he cried and I apologized repeatedly. He was so tired he went right back to bed though. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
