Mornin' all :D

Scrappy, I don't truly get a day off b/c on my days off I go to my neighbors to clean and have to run his errands as well as my own :rolleyes: I was really hoping for just one day of doing "nothing" and it didn't happen. I admit it. I am B(#!h-on-wheels when I don't get a break and/or enough sleep :eek: As for my water......

Nuthead, I only got in another 32oz yesterday :eek: Sorry. I WILL do better today! I WILL!!!!! Um, "relaxing"?? Whats that??? I don't think I am familiar with that term :eek: Holler away, Nuthead, I think I may need it if I dont get with it soon!!!

Jess, mushrooms are the blank canvas of the veggie world ;) I love 'em! SOOO many options to serve 'em :D

well, off to find breakfast and pack lunches :rolleyes:
 
You are going to have to take a "me day" somewhere, somehow. You deserve it and you need it! Hope you have a great day and get that water in! :D
 
Hi all :D

well, Nutty Buddy, tomorrow kinda turned into a sorta "me" day. I have to run to town (an hour one way) to drop off important papers. Then I need to grocery shop and get back in time to pick up the boys from school :eek: No work. Just mass errands. I am workin' on my water today:D Trying to get it all in ;)

Scrappy, I think tonight will be some time to myself (after the kids get to bed and hubby is fed :rolleyes: ). I REALLY wanna take a lobster "bake" bath and read a really good book while "marinating" :D heres hopin' it can happen for sanity's sake! :D
 
Hey Nutty Buddy! I hope you get in that "me" time tonight. :D Lock the bathroom door so that hubby, the kids and the birds (;) ) can't get in and put in some earplugs so you won't have to listen if they call you cause they want something! Lol! :D
 
Hope You Got Your Relaxing Bath And Hope Things Are Good Lets Get Ready To Rockkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
 
Well, folks, I didn't get in my lobster bake :( The kids worked on homework ("ma! I need help") until 9pm last night. I was SOO tired - mental and physical exhaustion are starting to really get me :eek: I just need to get some time to rest I think....

Nutty Buddy, though my food for yesterday was absolutely evil, I did get in my water and only went over my points by 1. Thats what I get for not going grocery shopping soon enough! I didn't have anything quick for lunch (to make or to eat) so I just brought a banana to work... yeah, well, then I attacked the snack bar thats right next door after I left work and sucked up almost the whole days points in one little box :( Since I only had time for a bit of cereal for breakfast, I was at 25 points for the day by 4pm. I didn't eat anything else (actually I felt kinda sick so it wasn't any challenge) but I got in all of my water :D

Tina, today is GOING to be SOO much better :D For personal reasons, I am forced to take the day off of work so maybe I can squeeze in some "me" time before everybody comes home.... I'm sure gonna try before I go even crazier than I already am! LOL

Well, time to help with science labs (got the kids up really early since the danged things are due today and they have tons still to do) and then get breakfast. Will pop in this afternoon :D
 
Oh, don't you just love it when they wait til the last minute to do work and then you have to help them get it done. ;) Kids! Gotta love em! :rolleyes: My daughter has gotten into this thing where she always says, in a whiny voice, "I don't know how to doooo it." The kid is in gifted and talented, for goodness sake! Then she comes in saying she doesn't know how to do her homework! :rolleyes:

Sometimes that mental exhaustion can be worse than the physical. And you are crazy enough already! Lol! :p I hope you get everything done quickly today so that you can get back home before anyone else and get some time to yourself. :)

I'm not going to gripe at you for going over by a point. But I am going to have to complain a little about you not eating after 4! Maybe I sent my "feeling sick" to you. :rolleyes: Yesterday morning I felt sick with anything I tried to eat. :rolleyes:
 
Me again :D LOL

Nutty Buddy, it really sucks!!! LOL The boys had to write a childrens book, complete with illustrations, over the weekend. They did that (Paul didn't color his and now has to do that or she wont' accept it) then got a science lab on Monday and was due today. They are in tutoring until almost 5pm! Then they have to come home and do their homework! They don't get many breaks during the week to play :( I know they are sick of it (I know I am) but I don't know what else to do with/ for them.... ANYWAY! :rolleyes: I did all my running around done (even took time to get my hair trimmed for the first time in 4 years!) and am home before anybody else :D :D I can now get things done AT MY PACE and try to ease into the nights activity hub-bub. I won't blame you for the sick feelin' :D That was my own danged fault for attacking the snack bar food! The grease just doesn't sit well with me anymore and I know better! :eek:

Korrie, "Me" time is GOING to happen either tonight or tomorrow (I want my "lobster bake"!!! LOL) :D It WILL, it WILL!!! :D


Found out this afternoon that my neighbors wife died yesterday. I have been cleaning their house and helping out while she's been hospitalized (we all expected her to come home). I don't know if he'll still want my help after or not. Hes so nice (annoying but nice) and he has cancer as well. I don't think he'll be far behind her. I think he'll just "give up" - its just the way he is. She always did everything for him and now she won't be there.... Life is way too short sometimes :(
 
Oh my! They are busy little kids, aren't they? It's strange how sometimes kids gets lots of homework and lots of projects and other times don't. When my oldest son was in 3rd grade, he got so much homework that he would be working on it from the time he got home until he went to bed. Then in 4th grade, he hardly had any homework. I was always asking the teacher if he just wasn't bringing it home! :rolleyes: At least summer vacation is almost here. Maybe next year will be better. I'm so glad that you got to go get your hair trimmed and was able to spend some time alone. You deserved it! :D So sorry to hear about your neighbor. :(
 
I can feel the tension and stress in your posts! Hang in there. You are dealing with a lot!! Careful - it was after a very stressful event that I threw my back out.
 
Mornin' all!

Nutty Buddy, the last few years of school they really didn't get a lot of homework at any given time. Now they have weeks where they have none and weeks that make you wanna strangle the teachers :rolleyes: THis was a strangle week! LOL I may have to turn over my paycheck to the daycare, but atleast its a mental break for the kids and myself! ;)

MO2, YOU'RE BACK! Missed ya! :D I didn't realize my stress level showed so easily :eek: oops. My stress level HAS been through the roof lately and (can you believe this?!) doc says it brought on a severe UTI and thats why I haven't felt too hot lately:rolleyes: Wonderful! Just the kinda thing I wanna deal with! LOL Oh well, in the grand scheme of things, it isn't as bad as it could've been.


Well, missing work again today to finish (hopefully) with applying for insurance :rolleyes: I can't afford to miss work but can't afford no ins. even more. After that I have to squeeze in grocery shopping for us and our neighbor and then clean his house (for funeral company coming) before getting the kids from tutoring. Yup. Another fun day :rolleyes: Tomorrow I actually get to work, but then have to run the kids to their fathers in town and go to meet with someone I am doing photography for. PLEASE let the weekend be free and relaxing!! Oh! Nope it won't be free (not sure about relaxing) Today is our anniversary and my parents so we're going to celebrate saturday night. Isn't it awful? I really just wanna hybernate this weekend!


total points yesterday: 24 :D
total water: 32oz ( I know *sigh* but I am tryin'.)

need to suck down lots of cranberry juice today so I have to work that into my points :rolleyes: can anybody say "vegetarian day"?! LOL
 
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!​

Hope you have a great day even though you have a lot of stuff to do. ;) The day care part of summer doesn't sound very good but at least you won't be pulling your hair out over the homework and strangling the teachers! ;)

Drink that cranberry juice and your water!!
