They didn't give us an application time but it was 9 am. So it eventually showed up.

Susan in TN Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Go Jean, Go! 🎉 I love pb&j. I also love pb on graham crackers (=homemade Nutterbutters). But neither of them are good for me to eat. Dd8 and I spent a few minutes trying to figure out when we can have her birthday cake with a majority of the family home. Looks like either Thursday (her actual birthday) at 7:30am or Sunday night. :rolleyes: It is cold and drizzly outside. I think imma snuggle in bed and read. Maybe watch Hawaii 5-0. 😠4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critterfixer Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 There is other food available, of course. But the evening has been full of, "Who ate all the hamburgers?" I had one. DH had two. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMJ Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I haven't eaten a pb and j in several decades. I've never liked them. But, it's an easy food that the kids can do themselves. Some years ago it became breakfast food at our house. I don't cook breakfast. Most of the kids don't like cereal. Some of them will eat yogurt. And oatmeal is banned. Hence, pb and j for breakfast. My kids don't really care for pb&j. One of my nephews is really picky, and that is one of the few foods he'd always eat (made on really cheap, soft white "bread", like Wonder). That SIL had a hard time believing my kids really didn't like that kind of bread or pb&j sandwiches. She was impressed and weirded out to see my kids grab the Healthnut bread and build sandwiches with meat, cheese, and LETTUCE. I like pb&j. On Healthnut (or similar) bread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMJ Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I miss my Subaru. He had to be sold when I had twins but I still miss him. I miss mine too. I cried when he was hauled away. When I was five or so Dad ended up selling the old Studabaker station wagon. I was upset, and I apologized to it before it was taken away for joking about how it baked studas. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I have a headset. It squeezes my head too hard. I need to have DD16 not watch 2 hours of French lectures without a break in between them. I reiterate: you need a headset. One that doesn't fit right doesn't count. Your dd also doesn't need to watch 2 hours of French. So, you need both. :D 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikslo Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Pb is banned from our house. We tried sun butter - not the same. I do not like avocados. Burgers do not last long here, either. DS lives cold cut sandwiches with cheese and lettuce. He also loves grilled cheese. I grew up eating wheat bread. I still prefer it over wonder white. But a really good Italian bread or French bread are my faves now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lots of little ducklings Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 My favorite peeps in the world have a Subaru. So they must be good. (((Critter))) . In my thoughts and prayers. Jean -- we need to ENB this music chick. On the home front, we didn't get to spelling today, but everything else was completed. I might delay spelling for a week, just to ease us back into things. There's still a lot to accomplish in recovery from the oil crisis (moving furniture back into laundry room, doing all the filing and school records that I never got to, finding my Hebrew Bible in the crawlspace because of a non-credit thing I'm doing with a college group this semester...) . While I'm glad the kids are back into a routine, I'm really needing one more week of vacation. But I'm prepped for CC tomorrow, and it's not even 11pm! Go me. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lots of little ducklings Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I don't think that people who don't homeschool understand how many moving parts I have going on in this complex choreography. Amen. And Amen. I was juggling, I don't know, maybe eight different (loud) things simultaneously this morning, when someone insisted on talking to me ON THE PHONE RIGHT NOW about a problem of their own making, and then was put-off when I texted that we could either email each other about it (while I simultaneously juggled all my loud things) or make an appointment to talk on the phone in three hours. I do wish certain individuals understood that I am at work about 16 hours a day. And if I am at home, I am especially at work. Rant over. :hat: 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 My mom started buying only wheat bread when I was fairly young. Most common snacks were oranges and cheese Doritos. We didn't have a lot of soda, but definitely more than I drink now. We might have it twice a year - usually for root beer floats. In fact, there are 3 cans of root beer that have been sitting in the fridge since New Year's Eve. No one has touched them!

I saw my paternal grandmother once when I was 3 years old right before she passed away. I saw my maternal grandmother at her funeral. I did know my maternal grandfather but only vaguely since we lived overseas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
