Openhearted Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I craved McDonald's when I was pregnant. I think I needed meat that didn't smell or look like meat. I was not raised on McD's nor did I ever enjoy it as a teen. It was in my mind, up to that point, emergency road food. When I was pregnant with dd16 I craved McDonald's French fries. She weighed 9 lbs 10 oz. With Ds20 it was pretzel sticks and French onion dip, and the twins, bacon and scrambled eggs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Wow. She has problems. Abusive parents, two bad husbands, and a self destructive personality. She's also an addict. It's very sad. She looks for reasons to be angry. I'm a favorite target because she hates how I turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Lynn Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Outta likes for the third time today. Home from swim meet day 2. Thanks for keeping me entertained while I was there. I'm getting ready to throw towels in the dryer and then go to bed. Cake is not my favorite desert, but I'm in favor of letting "them" eat it. I feel like I can still smell chlorine. Good night! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsuga Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Oh Lynn. I want my kids to do well in swim but this thread is making me feel like... I don't know. Maybe I don't want my kids to have a passion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 So for dinner I had jalapeño poppers, popcorn, and ice cream while watching Napoleon Dynamite. That's enough junk food to last me the rest of the month. Maybe. #luckyliger 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Well, I did it. I am officially in for NaNoWriMo this November.

texasmama Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) Napoleon Dynamite can fix what ails anyone. I cleaned up the kitchen, cleaned the sink and countertops and did all the dishes. Yes, this is notable. I have random things to say: This is day 14 of Paleo. I swept the floors, vacuumed, did two loads of laundry, walked the dog, did a rockin' dinner, and bossed Jean around some. It was a good day. I can smell chlorine because of Another Lynn, but it is better than cat pee. ETA: Peace out, all Kip-like.

Jean in Newcastle Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Renai - I mentioned your flashdrive problem to DS18 AKA Tech Support. He said that it could be a "problem with the soldering joint". He asked if it works if you hold it a certain way. If so, someone with a soldering iron and a steady hand, could fix it. He also said that first, you should try the flashdrive in another USB port just to make sure that it isn't the USB port that is bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renai Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Renai, what seems off about the baseline? Yay! She started giving some feedback before we have to turn it in. She's told everyone, except one person, that everything looked great (but he needed to include number of participants). In my baseline, I'm just going to make clear that I have access to the assessment (I'm the one doing it, even though it is state). She also wants me to flesh out the setting more. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For about a split second. I have tried it in other ports, so it probably is the soldering joint. I'll have to look that one up.

lots of little ducklings Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Kids back from swimming and now all including baby are gone again. I need to: clean my desk out so that I can find the bills I need to pay pay them move the junk in the garage back into the bleepity-bleep-bleep crawlspace except for the junk that I plan to kon-mari but can't because dh wants to "discuss" kon-mari-ing it first, and keeps putting that discussion off because he's not emotionally ready for it, and cook ziti for the babysitter tonight so that we can go out on a date which should be lovely date because we actually have a reservation and won't just end up at the vietnamese lunch counter place again unless we discuss kon-mari-ing things in which case the date will be a flop because I will feel like he values our exersaucer and his dad's broken end table over my own sanity while he will feel that I am foolishly unwilling to plan for future unforeseen circumstances in which we may NEED an exersaucer and his dad's broken end table. I am overwhelmed. Hence/Thus I think I will start with lunch. Date went well! Because Kon-Mari did not attend, I think. She will have to show up tomorrow, though, because it's getting cold and I neeeeeeed to be able to park in the garage. Still outta likes. I started multiquoting to like everything, but gave up. Y'all are too dang likeable. Bravo Dawn! Yay for Lynn! Hugs for all who are vomiting! And an envious sideglance to all empty-nesters who partied all day. (That be YOU, Ellie). Which reminds me, I have an Augusta Suite for a guestroom. Well, until kids. Now it looks more like the Augusta Orphanage. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Good feedback. I hope so. the last instructor gave me citation feedback that had me confused. When I asked this current professor about it (we had to turn in our last week's work so she could see what we were working on), she said that feedback was incorrect. I knew that, but if someone else had corrected based on that wrong feedback, well, they'd been wrong. Sigh. 3 more weeks. This is actually coming together quite well since we're doing it in pieces, then putting it all together at the end. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Remember that family that took me in as a kid? They had a 12 year old boy at the time. He's actually the one that convinced them to take me in. He was over for dinner tonight with his woman and apparently they got engaged yesterday. I was so happy I squealed like a rodent being run over by an old Ford. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I just chased the animals and the kids to bed an hour early. I'm exhausted and could not keep my eyes open one more minute. The teens can stay up in their rooms if they want but since they had been complaining about being exhausted too, I sort of doubt it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Lynn Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Tsuga, I agree that swimming is a great sport. And there are worse ways to spend a weekend. It's a bit of a fine line to take a near 17 yr old, who doesn't really need me there. I had a good laugh with another older mom there. We were in no hurry to get into the pool area. She noticed younger moms rushing in with all their stuff and clipboards, etc. Yeah, I'm no swim coach. Only here because ds needs a driver. Nice to talk to someone who understood, lol. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG a clipboard!!! In our league you write their races on their bodies with a sharpie... and the really with-it moms take a picture of that with their phones. The records are all online anyway. My MIL said that her happiest moment was when she realized her kids, 10 and 12, had gone the whole meet without coming to her... she said after that she only went to the away meets and then she brought work with her. That's like, 3 years away for me! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Lynn Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 We use sharpies for summer swim. Not sure if the younger ones do that during year round swim or not. In the summer, home meets are great. Everyone knows what to do and where to go, etc. We work the meets and socialize. Summer swim is all about the fun! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73349 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I was trying out my new dryer, which plays music to me instead of an obnoxious honk or buzz when it wants attention. I'm hoping the charm doesn't wear off, because I don't see any way to tell it to just be quiet. Trust me, Lynn, that I will never be watching football when I should be on the internet. Unlike certain people. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lots of little ducklings Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I am watching my dh as he herds our whole crew along the sidewalk back toward out house. They are all bundled up in winter gear, and laughing after their walk. (I would have enjoyed the walk with them but today is the day when everyone who has potty-issues chose to have accidents. So laundry. Because poop.) 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
