KrissiK Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Good Morning!!! COFFEE!!!☕ï¸â˜•ï¸â˜•ï¸â˜•ï¸ Friday!!!!ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘👠DS has off of school today. It is Veterans Day. Thus I got to sleep in as well. I needed it. I think with the other kids we'll just take our Bible verse quiz and spelling test and do math and call it good. We're going to paint the girls' room tomorrow, so need to get their room cleaned up and get to the hardware store and get paint and supplies. Since we still have moving to a bigger house in our plans, the bedroom will be painted Antique White, as our realtor said that's the best way to go, 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luuknam Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 What is wrong with people?? MIL asked DDa what her favorite subject was. She said it was band. MIL said, no, a real subject. DD was :huh: . Then she said her next favorite would be math. MIL said, "Girls aren't supposed to like math!" Way to encourage her interests, Grandma! Maybe she should work really hard and be Don Draper's secretary. DD was offended but came to me and said she was proud of herself for being able to nod and smile. It was DD's best choice- we don't engage when people are nuts. #whatimdealingwith Ugh. Maybe tell her to answer Home Ec next time. :001_rolleyes: I'm not sure if that's right. I passed French 2 in my senior year in high school 20+ years ago. Either way it's time for French, no? If you got it wrong, maybe even more so... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I just banished the snappers to their desks with food, and orders not to return until they have eaten and are ready to be reasonable turtles. They are, as I expected, bolting their snacks like their last meal. But they had to be ordered to eat. :glare: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I'm back! I survived! It took me twice as long to get through a rather short AFSA list than it did to dig through Kohl's disorganized undergarment clearance racks, try on 6 items and make a purchase. I had enough time to stop at Goodwill before going to the church. Then on the way home I was blocked at nearly every turn because the Veteran's Day Parade was setting up, which I forgot about. Just got a text from dh - FIL's blood pressure is very low. They gave him a blood transfusion and now he's getting an echocardiogram. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 DH has been waking up hot at night, sweating and complaining about it. I had him turn the thermostat down to just above freezing at night, and reserved my heavier throw for me, because I'll get cold. And after all that, he still gets hot, because he steals my blanket! I yanked it off him once last night, but by the morning, he'd got hold of it again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikslo Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Okay, I just read that plasma is collected simultaneously with platelet donation. I think that's what my mom did. She gave plasma, and they would extract whatever they needed from that. I remember her saying there was a machine that separated it all out and then put the rest pack in her body. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Probably duck. We always end up with some duck eggs along with our chicken eggs from our son. But he warns us ahead of time. Do they taste different than chicken eggs? Ours don't. Which might be normal. I am not new to eggs but I am new to farm eggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
