AMJ Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Trigger warning.... Educational post ahead. I told the kids we would be starting school 10 minutes ago. And yet.... here I sit. The air quality is horrible. My eyes are burning and I feel like someone tarred me and rolled me in pollen. :grouphug: :grouphug: Today's lessons may have to revolve around how to help Mom when she can't see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikslo Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Just got off the phone with the credit card company. Fraudulant charges and all. You know, I really hate bad people. Why can't people just.... be nice. Don't take things that aren't theirs, be honest, earn a living with integrity? Is that too much to ask? A FAFSA on the bad people who used your card. I spit on them. Ptooey. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I want the Ellen McHenry bundle, and the Unit Studies bundle, and the Mystery bundle - right? (The unit studies one has some Christian content, but I think I can work around it.) I don't know. Do I really want this stuff? No. You have a week to think about it, so just wait. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paige Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 It's cold here- mid-60s. I'd move wherever Krissi lives in a heartbeat if it meant I'd never have to see snow again except on vacations and trips to see relatives. I need to feel warm year round. If it's under 75-80, it's too cold. I had my ultrasound today- baby has all working parts, no problems, is still a boy, and there's definitely only one! All around a good time except for the hour in the waiting room. DH even got people to cover his meetings so he could go. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikslo Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I actually do want the Ellen M. one. There are a few things in the other two I know I would use, and for $15, I don't care if I never use the other stuff. My hang-up is that I prefer physical books. But I can get over that. I think.

AMJ Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Please note: I am NOT neglecting the dirty pots, pans, and knives. I am proactively postponing washing these for safety reasons. The side of our sink with the garbage disposal has to stay dry for 24 hours (DH installed the replacement disposer last night and the goo has to cure), and the other, deeper side of the sink is a bit too big for fishing around under soapy suds for sharp knives. The pots, too, tend to have farther to drop from slippery hands. I am therefore waiting until after 6 PM before cleaning any of this stuff up because I need the side of the sink that is currently quarantined in order to do the job safely. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a beautiful, sunny, 77 degree day with a light breeze a couple weeks ago and one of my kids grumbled, "I hate this weather." :huh: What's wrong with them? She said it was too hot and bright. These kids used to be perfectly happy playing outside in the summer in Atlanta! They've gotten soft. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJosMom Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Rubbing it in, are we??😜😜😜 I keep telling DH we need to move where you guys are.... and he keeps on and on about job opportunities and silly things like that. Actually, that was sincere. The air quality (or lack thereof) was one of the main factors motivating us to leave. Asthma rates in children are through the roof; it's horrendous. Tell your DH he needs to be a firefighter. They can afford to have their families live here and just fly back to Cali for their shifts.

I won't go 48 hours because I want my kitchen back, and this way I might coerce DH into taking DD12 to Aikido this evening. On another front: My cat came down and started yowling to be let out. I told her earlier she had to stay in until she provided a stool sample in the litter box. I went to check -- one fresh sample! -- so I congratulated her and let her out.
