  1. m kids want breakfast for dinner tonight so we will be having eggs, turkey sausage, and hashbrowns.
  2. I'm still not sure lol. I need to go knit a little and see what it is that I do lol. And then I'll know.
  3. Honest to god, I don't know. I just knit. I never paid attention to how I work the yarn cause I'm too busy concentrating on the stiches. I'm guessing throw but still I'm not really sure.
  4. There are some songs I like but all together it is not my style of music. Lately I have really been into country.
  5. I am done with the bathrooms and I did a little bit of marketing. I did not finish the laundry but it usually takes me 2 days to do it anyways. It takes me 2 days because I use the sanitary cyclew to wash 3 loads: Rags, towels, and sheets. The sanitary cycle on my machine is about 3:30 hrs :P
  6. There are sleeping bags designed for below 0 degrees. There are also these really nice blankets that fit on the inside of your sleeping bag. The blanket sips up like a sleeping bag so they would zip up the blanket and then the sleeping bag. Those sleeping bags also have like these hooded tops to nest your head so that even your head won't get cold. I got mine at walmart. The sleeping bag was like $30 (I think) and the blanket was like $10. Its not one of those thick bulky blankets either but it does work at keeping you warm. That along with a fire that is kept going all night long and they should be ok.
  7. uuuuuhhhhhhhhhhh ..... *hands trembling as they make their way to the keyboard and meekishly types* ok. This is something I need to do. No more excuses. It's got to be done. *Cries running away from the computer to give the TV a big hug and kiss*
  8. Generic Prozac. Its my wonder drug and honest to god, I don't see myself coming off them any time in the future.
  9. Yeah ... this is when I started potty training. But mine was a few months older when he did this. The funny thing was that he wouldn't just take his diaper off ... he would take everything off ... no matter what the weather.
  10. So I started the laundry. After I finish my coffee I will get started on the bathrooms. Thank you to the person who reminded me about dinner too! I will go to the market around noon time.
  11. OK. Here is what I have planned to do for today. Just like you, I'm not too motivated. I think its because I keep forgetting to take my antidepressants. I fall into such a slump when I forget to take them. And when I am on top of taking them I am unstoppable. So : Laundry and bathrooms. I need to do some marketing too :tongue_smilie:
  12. its really easy to make and really doesn't require any recipe. I just heat up some milk and add a spoon of cocoa powder. I find that for about 3-4 cups of milk I can use just 1 spoonful of cocoa powder. Then i just add sugar to my preffrence. If you wanna try a mix I would say try using the same amount of milk powder to make about 8 cups of milk to 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder. Add sugar to suit your taste. I also add a pinch of salt. I find that that balances the hot cocoa. I also like to add cinnamon and vanilla but again that's a prefference.
  13. The problem is that we have no idea where they sleep. We have gone out in the evening with a flashlight and we can't find them. The first night we thought we had lost them for good and then when morning came we saw them. We know its in the trees somewhere but we just haven't found them yet.
  14. Well we finally got some chickens ... 8 of em. But we have a little bit of a problem. Contrary to what I kept telling DH before the chickens got here, he did things his way. I said, "Dear, we need to build a chiken coop with a fenced in area so that we can keep them in control until they get used to us." He said, "No, chickens need to be free range." I agree with that but they still need to be used to us and they need a shelter to keep them safe from the elements, not to mention a place to lay their eggs. We got the chickens and he let em loose. Now the good thing is that they do stay in a group. The bad thing is, they won't let us be anywhere near them which makes it hard to figure out where they go to lay their eggs. Now he did finally build a chicken coop ... a very bad one ... I could have done better ... as a matter of fact i think I will build one myslef and show him how its done. The chickens will not go in there. The good thing is that we have got lots of land and they just love to scratch around and find all sorts of bugs. Oh btw, their wings are not clipped so if we even try to round them up and corner them they do fly way over our heads. They flew high enough to be way up in a tree. I just need to know if there is anyway to gather them up and influence them to sleep in a certain area or do I just give up and hope to someday find their eggs?
  15. No offence. I say this very light heartedly. I think your being a little too picky. I can understand if the music or tv is on loud enough that you really want to listen to something and someone is talking to you ... I can understand getting annoyed over that. I hate trying to talk above TV's and music but if I'm in a restaurant and there is a little bit of music playing soflty in the background ... I find that soothing. I do see your point with the conversing during music or movies. If I'm gonna put some music on for a friend to hear, the only time I'm gonna talk is to explain something about the music. Same thing with the movie thing.
  16. I love Lindt. Their chocolate truffles are to die for. I also like green and black if your friend is into organic chocolate.
  17. I went and atched it today and although i was team Jacob before, I am team Edward now. Jacob just came across as irrational and very hot tempered which for me was such a turn off. I still feel like Bella plays too much of a victim. The scene where Jacob is telling her to go away unsympatheticly, I kept thinking to myself that she should have slapped him at some point.
  18. Really? I'm glad you let me know that because I spend the whole day in my slippers. In the summer I wear my crocs slippers and in the winter time I wear one of those fuzzy slippers that you get at target. They keep my feet sooooo warm while being comfortable at the same time. Its soo sad to know that it's bad for my back :(
  19. Thank you and Eid mubabrak to you too! This year it will be busy for me though lol. Thurs is Thanksgiving, Fri is Eid, and Sun is my Bday.
  20. Rice cakes or crackers! I had totally forgotten about those. I can do that instead of bread.
  21. Were there any behavioral issues before? If so how is she now?
  22. I was reading a little about it and was wanting to give it a try. DS has behavioral issues that just wear me out. He also has some speech delays. When I deal with him its like there is this huge thick wall between us and I just can't get through. I want to try this in hopes of it helping him because he is struggling in school. Now, the strange thing is that its not because he's slow. when we can get him to focus, he gets things and retains them rather well. The problem is getting him to sit down and focus. We have been trying some behavioral modifying techinques at the request of his teacher but I don't think its working. So as a last resort, before we hand him over to a psychologist and probably medicate him, I wanna give this a try. The problem is this: I have no idea what to do for lunch. I know there is GFCF bread out there but it costs way to much for such a little bit. Plus, what if he doesn't like it. It's my issue with dairy as well lol. I can definately do calcium fortified OJ. I bought fresh soymilk and fresh almond milk and to my relief the fresh ones don't have as much of a chalky after taste but its still gonna take some getting used to. I saw coconut milk in whole foods and was sooo glad cause I love everything coconut. To my disapointment, it was like drinking mylanta :ack2:. This is what I have so far: Breakfast- turkey bacon or sausage and eggs and calcium fortified OJ. Lunch- ? Dinner- Rice, veggies, some sort of meat, salad I plan on giving a calcium suppliment too.
  23. Sorry. I didn't realize it was for an automatic dishwasher.
