JoJosMom Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 It is 20 degrees outside. Brrrr! Snort. When I got up (hours ago), I looked at the outside temp and thought, "Twenty degrees! It's much warmer this morning!" Oh, the irony! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJosMom Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I'm glad you found something that worked. I am a little late to the game, but I suppose that my suggestion of sticking it in your mouth while hopping around on one foot, at the same time letting loose with the obscenities might not have been too effective! Oh, and it's Booya/h time! "And I heard him exclaim as he Booyah-ed out of sight, 'Happy Booya/h to all, and to all a good Booya/h'" Had to like this, despite the evil H. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 It is morning. I am awake. I cannot go back to sleep to get my much needed 8 hours because I have to go to the doctor in a bit. Going to the doctor often cuts into my health routines. I am working on getting pants. They (and other clothes) are in the dryer. My beloved Fitbit which went through the washer but not the dryer, is sitting next to me. With a dead face. I'm hoping for a resurrection. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prairiewindmomma Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Mondays after a holiday weekend are brutal. I have the kids in separate rooms of the house, and the littlest is watching Barbie's Life in the Dream House. I'm trying to catch up on laundry, teach rational expressions to eldest, and sort through mail at the same time. Keeping it real, folks.... Also, please, please, please, everybody get powers of attorney for medical and financial decision making drawn up, put them by your wills, and tell somebody else outside of your four walls where they are. If you own more than one house and a car---work on shielding your assets in case you need to be put into a nursing home. For realz. I just watched the implosion and then explosion of my extended family, the raiding of the family home for the "good stuff", and some very poor decision making. All of this could've been avoided. It's ugly. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slache Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I get who the purple one is, but who is the poor yellow one? Ok, Matt's been back and forth with payroll all day. It's cyber Monday and I can buy nothing. I need my foot patches. They're 40% off. I've been waiting for today to get them! I haven't been cramping for a while so I plan to do a beginner workout. Mama's getting fat. Feeling human. John's mad because I won't put toothless on. I don't trust the coffee creamer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Update on critter issues: baby cat is doing well. She is eating, playing and sulking about her cone and confinement, because you can't convince a four month old cat that she is mortal. Old dog with aches and pains is enjoying his pain medication, old cat with the eye issue is doing a little better today and has an appointment with another eye specialist next week to see if we can get her some long lasting relief with her condition. And nobody else seems to be falling apart. For now. I'm still tired. It's a hot chocolate kind of night. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prairiewindmomma Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I am seriously thinking of just making it soup night, every night, for a while. My brain is overly full right now, and making soup is very forgiving of being interrupted. I'm burned out on chicken covered in sauce (teriyaki, bbq, korma, etc.) in the crockpot. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJosMom Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I'm glad dancer can see. Slash, I can't believe a California company is doing that. (I believe believe it. I'm just shocked.) California labor laws are EXTREMELY pro-employee; getting caught doing that would be very bad there. Don't know how it works it Oregon.

texasmama Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) While I was at my odd father's house, someone called to tell me I had won a cruise to the Bahamas! I was so excited. Not. Then my odd father told me I should change my phone number. I told him I've had this number for 17 years, and I am not changing it because I get one call a month offering me a free cruise. He was full of odd advice today, but he randomly gave me chicken broth which I made into a soup so all is well. ETA: This booya(h) is dedicated to my odd father and his odd house plans and his chicken broth (never beef). Falalala, lalalala(h).

Just so you know. (She's in love your kids. Not surprising since the highlight of her week is being a student leader for Cubbies. I wish there were more jobs in our area; I'd send applications for Matt to fill out and send DD's completed babysitter app for your pre-approval!) 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
