ikslo Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I went to the gym. I did my cardio, but the I felt light-headed during weights, despite drinking lots of water and eating well today. So I left. But first I drank more 3 bottles of water. Got home, and DH had made dinner and left mine warming in the oven. :hurray: But then I could only eat half of it. My body doesn't want it. It tastes like dirt. I hope I'm not getting sick. That, too, would be butt. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I'm sorry everyone is having bad days today. I keep waiting for any news on the contest, but so far all is quiet. As I expected, no male wanted leftovers, and so all were left to their own devices in the kitchen. It smells like bacon, but I'm afraid to look. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikslo Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I just lost a friend today (friendship ended). I am sad. It's complicated because our lives overlap a lot with shared events. It ended over something stupid, which I think is really reflective of the fact that I stopped being useful to her...and we weren't so much friends to begin with. â˜¹ï¸ :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I had a bad day too but not as bad as y'all's. Can I do that? I just got off the phone with a billing office asking where my refund is.How do you store large quantities of soup in the freezer? Who is refunding you with soup? Is 6 pm too early to go to bed? Is it too late for a nap? No. No. I have to edit ds16's transcript because sports teams don't like kids who take 5 years to complete high school. So I am going to dump a whole bunch of credits and call those 8th grade. Grrr. Don't do this. Do a subject transcript or give high school credit to courses taken in 8th grade. I got high school credit in 6th, 7th and 8th and college credit in 11th and 12th. The school was responsible so I don't know how it's done, but it's done. Is 7 pm too early to go to bed? Is it too late for a nap? No. No. So I left. Good call. Never risk weakening yourself. Jasmine PLANT! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it too late for a nap? No to both. Paige, sorry about the medical stuffs. I hope the kids going to school doesn't mean you won't be ITT-ing anymore. Because that would be butt. I'll after school still so I'll be around. And I guess I can baby school. I don't trust the school educationally after seeing what DS does in HS and I was less than impressed with the 2 classes they each took last year. One of the girls is ambitious and very concerned that she won't learn as much at school. DH's main concern is their social lives which is the sole reason they are going. I doubt it will make much of a difference, but who knows. They've always been shy and will probably never be the social butterfly he was, but before their social anxiety hit they loved school type activities. I would like them to be back to their happy selves too, but I dunno if throwing them into school is the solution or if it will make them worse. Dh has asked me not to buy brown rice anymore. Unfortunately, we have about 15 # left to get through. Where does everyone sit on the rice divide? Personally. I prefer Basmati. The kids like Jasmine. I like Jasmine. It's easier for me to cook. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paige Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 The temperature has dropped into the mid-70s and I'm freezing! I have a shirt and sweater on. I'm trying to get the family to be happy with the a/c on 78 or 79, but they think I'm weird. I was not made for cold temps and need to move farther south!!

Junie Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Don't do this. Do a subject transcript or give high school credit to courses taken in 8th grade.

If I don't dump the credits, ds16 won't be able to play sports this fall. Since he is hoping to get a soccer scholarship, playing soccer is more important than keeping the credits. I am keeping the Algebra I credit and noting that it was taken in 8th grade. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luuknam Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I had a good day. I got everything done other than TKD. Hugs to everyone having a bad day. 7pm is not too early for bed, but I wouldn't risk a nap that late. What rice depends on what dish. Generally, I'm fine with cheap brown rice for most things (but not, for example, risotto), but DW does not like brown rice. I think we probably have 4 different kinds of rice (Jasmine, risotto, brown, and wild?). 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junie Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 I went to the doctor today because the ice cream cure didn't help my swollen eyelid. He told me to put warm compresses on it and skip my arthritis medication this week (because it's an immunosuppressant). He also gave me a script for an antibiotic, but after doing a little research I decided that I won't be taking it. It's a Pregnancy Category D drug. I'm not pregnant (that I know of), but I *might* be. Highly unlikely, I know, but I don't take Cat D drugs ever. I will be calling in the morning for a new script. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just slowly wasting away from allergies which have been disrupting my sleep and leaving me dopey all day long. Which is not good, because a thousand things have to happen between now and the weekend, when I pack up seven people for a trip while simultaneously moving everything we own into the garage so the floors can be restained and finished while we are gone. And in case you were wondering, everything we own can NOT fit in the one-car garage. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
