Melissa in Australia Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 hi everyone shifted twins bath to evening to try and reduce the amount of jobs in the morning ahead of me starting work instead we went for a pram walk. it started raining so we jogged home. 3 loads of laundry washed, hung on the line dried, folded and put away took twins into town to get weighed while ds11 and ds14 attended summer activity at the library. both twins have put on 1.2 kg in the last 12 weeks. this is an amazing amount as twin 2 had only put on 400 grams in 6 months prior to being placed with us. mazing what feeding the children does. ( they were starved while in foster care). came home and DH had made twins lunch and was ready to serve it as we came in the door. :001_wub: put twins to bed and manage to get most of the house tidying done plus a incy bit of gardening before the twins woke up. cooked spaghetti bolognaise for tea. DH bathed the twins, kids sort of tidied the kitchen- maybe they see that I was in need of help twins now in bed and I am trying to work out how to use my brand new laptop. I have only ever used a desktop before now, but need a laptop for work so I can put my lessons onto the smartboard. till to go, hang out last load of washing (nappies) and listen to ds11 read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creekland Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I have no idea what I'm doing today. It needs to be something. I'm getting pretty bored. I believe the hand is healing as it should. It's incredibly tempting to remove the bandage as it's bugging me more than the hand/wrist. I'll put vacuuming on the list - and will get out with the ponies again today. I hope they remember their lessons from earlier. I also need to go to the grocery store for couple of sale items (sales change tomorrow).

BlsdMama Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Meh. Coffee. :) Getting off to a slow start this morning.... well after I backed DH's truck out for him and broke the mirror off by hitting the garage. Sigh. Call dental insurance about two billing errors Print off tax documents needed to file Organize medical bills. Whee. Remove popcorn ceiling. (This is a blast, no sarcasm, lol. It's fun to watch it drop and it's pretty fast and easy!) Barton x 3 School I'd love to sort through a pile of clothes for Goodwill but it's a long shot. And finally I don't have to make dinner cuz it's my birthday! Happy birthday to ME! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TammyinTN Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 What a morning.... Sophia Grace was playing on the floor and Ella came over and we don't know if she grabbed her or petted her, but she bite her on the face --her nose and cheeks have bruise marks and scratches. I'm just absolutely sick to my stomach. I don't know what to do. Suggestions and be gentle as when I got Ella I never intended to have little children in my home and she has been my companion through 2 deployments and the last 7 years.

Lizzie in Ma Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Creekland, let it be, rest and heal. :grouphug: :grouphug: Happy Birthday Kelly! Oh Tammy, I am sorry. I wish I had words of wisdom for you. Our older dog is in pain and has to be kept away from littles, she is afraid of them and I worry about her lashing out if they inadvertently harm her. Can you keep her separated from Sophia when she is toddling about? School is already done today, whew, it's been forever since it went that smoothly. Off to logic class this afternoon and then stop in and see my Mom on the way home. morning chores all done thawing a roast for supper Sent out an authorization for release of medical records to youngest's ENT, she is finally going to get her dear little broken nose fixed! It is two surgeries to be done at the same time, a septiplasty because her septum is almost completely sideways and they will rebreak and repair the fracture at the same time. Our consult appointment with the surgeon is 2/2 in Boston. She hasn't been able to breathe well in 4 years but they had to wait because the break was on her growth plate. We are so excited for her!

creekland Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Happy Birthday BlsdMama! :party: Tammy - I don't have suggestions - just :grouphug: . I know I'd feel really badly if in the same situation and I hope you can find a workable solution. May Sophia heal quickly. I have to shift what I'm doing. I've already done too much with the hand (sigh). The ponies will just get carrots and grain - no lessons. Vacuuming (more) won't happen either. The mental aspect of not being able to do things is seriously driving me nuts. How do people handle long time periods of this? There's only so much in computer games and TV that I can handle. Reading would work - if that could last longer. Half an hour is about my hand limit with the carpal tunnel "stuff." But then too, I get annoyed when things don't get done. If it were warmer I'd go on a long hike, but 26 degrees AND windy makes that a wee bit unappealing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Lucky, we can compare personal trainer notes! Tammy, I would just work at keeping them separate unless you are right there to monitor any interaction they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteryJen Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Happy Birthday, BlsdMama! Tammy, I am so sorry. I would leash Ella and keep her with me-a sort of doggy tomato staking. I slept in a bit, just starting to feel back to normal after last weekend. Dh's car should be ready this afternoon (I can only hope, it is a lot of extra driving with only one car). My list of things to do is getting so long... To do: motivated moms list (seriously behind here) school for all motivate teens get study back to clean go through stacks of things for goodwill drop off books at library on way to practice PM practice/aikido grocery store run during practice I am sure there is more, but I am also sure I will not get even that much done. Have a good day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondeviolin Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Today I'm going to see about taking a light day of schoolwork. My little guy is still mysteriously limping so I will be taking him in. With all of the kids. (In case you didn't know, squeezing five kids in one tiny examination room is akin to 8th circle of hell.). Lunch Dinner Laundry, always laundry Swim practice for the son Vacuum upstairs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 human care done pet care done met with personal trainer. Printed out all the workout/stretch stuff that he e-mailed me. Drinking extra magnesium so that I hopefully don't go back into a flare one day after I came out of my last week long one. Have to figure out how to make my diet fit his new macro suggestions.

hjffkj Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Well I'm home again. Blood work and urine were normal. Even my blood pressure was normal, actually fantastic. Makes no sense since it has been high the last few days and alarmingly high at my appointment this morning. Better safe than sorry though.

SageRebel Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 School, deep cleaning, laundry done, and a shower. Had some awesome outside time. I do need a life. I need socialization!

Jean in Newcastle Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 Zumba! Except that my left leg decided to start to give out on me so I spent the rest of the time trying to move very carefully so that I wouldn't end up on the floor. I'm going to have to take my prescription anti-inflammatory tonight which sort of sucks but not as much as it would if I didn't have it. Went out to Starbucks with dh. Very very nice and unfortunately very unusual lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoCandJ Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Migraines suck, had one since yesterday. Avoided Walsfart so it wouldn't be made worse and then dd1 decides to spray perfume all over the house blah. I mainly get them around that time of month, kinda anxiously awaiting menopause so that hopefully I can get rid of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
