  1. After a weekend of kids throwing up, finally am able to get my house clean. Yea~ The worst part this time about throwing up is two things: My son couldn't get the bag open fast enough so he threw up in a bag that had our markers and gloves in it.....Yuck! He also threw up on the dog...poor thing. I admit. When the kids throw up, so do I. Nothing like the smell to send me over the edge. Thank goodness it was just a day thing.
  2. Here's my dh's helpful advice (NOT!) Maybe she is looser? :rolleyes: I would get it checked out by a doctor if it is bothersome. However, if it is just bothersome to your friend and her dh doesn't notice/recognize it as an issue, I am not sure there will be any receptiveness to get checked out.
  3. Just checking to see how this turned out in the end.
  4. Oh my goodness! I remember watching this with the kids. They really liked this when they were younger. I should try and find this at our library.
  5. Agreeing with all the others. Get out. Now. Don't pass go. Don't collect $100 (in this case the house). Chance of getting the house are slim so I wouldn't stay and put your money in something that most likely won't happen.
  6. Thanks for sharing all this information. I am also having acne breakouts and I am well past the teen years. I will use something and it will seem to work but then it doesn't anymore. Also, I know some of it has to be hormonal because certain times of the month I break out and no matter what I was doing that worked, it no longer helps. In fact, I am dreading summer because of how bad it can be. I don't know if having blood work done, like a female hormone panel, would be helpful or not.
  7. :hurray: Awe...that is so nice what your son said. What an added bonus that the PA was homeschooled so you didn't have to answer any extra questions.
  8. I'm liking this year. I think they had a lot of great vocalists. Christina Grimme killed it tonight. We actually backed up and listened to her sing again.
  9. FaithManor, wondering if you talked with the family and how it went?
  10. Apparently the kids who were stabbed didn't realize that it had happened. They just saw the blood. This is so sad. We used to live 20 minutes from there.
  11. The mom hung up and swore at you and has made it clear that they won't help in anyway with the participation. So very rude. A couple thoughts: Can you just have that family get their own hotel room in order to have their son participate since they didn't help with fundraising? Also, would the boy be able to help in anyway to make up for not helping with fundraising? Like serve the team in some way? Can he prepare slides or posters for the presentation part so he is contributing? I just keep thinking about the poor kid who now has more work to do because the other kid can't come when originally planned because of his choices. Isn't there a policy like, if you can't be there the entire time with the team then you can't come at all? Does it really benefit the team for him to be coming late? Overall, my vote would be no. Can't come. Sorry. Not only did the family not help fundraise, the boy can't help with the presentation part due to bad choices and the mom hung up and swore at you. Three strikes. You're out.
  12. [quote name="Ethel Mertz" post="5573594" timestamp="1396660745"] My 11 year old son wants to know what I'm laughing about so hysterically. He looked over my shoulder. He wants to know why you would put flip-flops on top of a candle. No way, no how am I going to explain the other meaning of "thong."[/ quote] I had totally forgotten that flip flops were called thongs. I can see why people don't use this term. Honey, could you please go get my thongs before we leave? Just takes things to a whole nother level :)
  13. Well, the first thing that came to my mind was: "Mabel, Mabel set the table and don't forget the red hot pepper." This is what we would chant while jumping rope :)
  14. Wow! I knew we have discussed many topics here, but I am not recalling a thong you put on top of a candlestick Cupcakes, kilts, but thongs...I am not sure we have dedicated a thread to this....yet! :D Thanks for this! I needed a laugh today!
  15. So beautiful! You did a great job. I hope the bride was happy in the end!
  16. This wasn't around when my kids would have been interested in this. I have heard great things about ABC mouse from anyone who has used it!
  17. :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: No advice. I'm sorry you are having to figure all this out.
  18. On the front are pictures on one side, calendar and school schedule. The other side is up against a wall.
  19. cereal, chips, dog clippers, oversize tupperware containers and vegetable trays
  20. Drat! For whatever reason, photobucket will not work on my computer, even if I sign in.
  21. I have trouble using the search function. It never seems to be able to find what I am searching for.
