Luckymama Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Tammy, your grandkids are the cutest things :D Thinking of a friend this morning. She has had an autoimmune disease for 15+ years and her kidneys are failing. She had surgery this am to install a port for dialysis, but the surgery had to be interrupted due to a complication (text from another friend). I am heartsick.

KrissiK Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Well, dinner has been eaten. Dh is taking the kids to the basketball game, but I'm stAyng home with my youngest since she seems to have one of those rogue viruses that come, spike a fever for a couple hours and then go. I have to start another batch of bread. I was so mad I almost cussed. Well, I did, under my breath. See, I made the dough. It was on the second rise and I put it in the oven where it was a bit warmer. Then, I forgot about it as I started supper. Then I turned the oven on to 375 to preheat. The bell went off to let me know it was up to temperature. Then, about 10 minutes later I opened my oven door to put the chicken in and there was my dough. Ruined. Well, the top was perfectly cooked. It was yummy. The rest of it was wrecked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swellmomma Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 okay so glad for this day to be coming to an end. Work this am went way longer than planned and it really set me back. dd14 never went to latin class taking advantage of my not being home she decided to sleep in and skip it. And ds10 missed his online lit class because I thought it was a thursday class for some reason and so I screwed that one up. went to work this afternoon, then had staff meeting. took teens to cadets and worked on net training for new job. not finished like I hoped I would be but at least progress has been made. school today included AAR for both youngers, dd14 doing her homework reading for her WWII class and ds15 doing his reading for his classic adventures 2 class, that fool has class tomorrow am and I learned today had not even started his reading. He was supposed to read the first 12 chapters of Rolf and the Viking Bow. I am making him do 6 before he goes to sleep even though it is already midnight, and will get him up when I am going to work to finish the other 6 before his class time. Apparently I need to be on top of their online classes more. The whole point of paying for those classes was to free up some of my responsibilities while they still worked hard. *eyeroll* how silly of me to think high schoolers could handle this. Of course my plan failed to account for the fact that all my kids have ADHD. Anyway it is now midnight and I am already thinking about tomorrows list so I best be heading to bed and move on :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
