You may think I am crazy but.........................

Morning ladies! Its HUMP day!

We have our Department budget review this afternoon at 2:00pm. They always want us to cut, cut, cut from our budget. The only thing left to cut is me. Keep your fingers crossed that is not the case.

[lexsmama]

Morning!

Oh no, Lynn! They can't cut you! They need to find another way, dangit.

Lex got new shoes last night. Dh put them on him, and all he could say was, "Oh, wow, Dada! Mama, wow!" And we can't get them off him now. lol.

Oh, and his preschool director called yesterday. She's freaking out about how much Lex drinks... again. She "watched a tv show" one night and thinks she has found his problem. Ugh. Can they leave it alone?!

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww:silly:

santi sais Woooooouw! all the time :) makes me smile. At his bday when his guests gave him the present he would say to them "wooooouw!" LOL

[Momto3]

If the doc has checked Lex out then the daycare lady needs to leave it alone! Sheesh MYOB, ya know!

Tha is so cute about his shoes. katelyn does the same thing. When she sees something new we've gotten she goes "For meeeeeeee?????" so cute! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this age!

[lexsmama]

It's so sweet. He got a big boy pair of shoes, too. No characters or anything. He was in love. They were still about a thumb and a half width too big, but he wasn't taking them off. lol. Melts your heart.

I'm hoping the pedi will send a note or call them or something. This chid has NOTHING wrong with him. He's seen neurologists, gastrointerologists, multiple pedis, had ivs... He's fine. They'd all have found it before now. I think after he dehydrated so bad, he's just decided he's never going through that again. kwim?

[Momto3]

I think after he dehydrated so bad, he's just decided he's never going through that again. kwim?

Absolutely! He's a smart boy!


My favorite time of the day has become putting Katelyn to bed. Not because she isn't awake any longer, but because we put her to sleep in our bed then transfer her over to her crib. So she lays her head on my pillow (I lay with her) and we are face to face talking and we say our prayers. Its such a sweet special time I just love it. Last night Shelly was doing her laundry and she closed the dryer door and Katleyn looked with these big eyes and said "Wha was dat Mama?" its so stinkin cute! or she will say "Wha's a matter Mama?"

[newmami]

Ugh Ash, I am sorry that lady is trying to play doctor :pokey:. Dani also drinks a lot of water because she is constantly on the run, where is that so bad????
So cute about the shoes.... I love when the LO make a huge deal out of the small things!!!

Bel, nothing wrong with wanting Me time... I love when DH says he will be out couple of nights, I honestly enjoy not having him around.

So Dani finally had a decent night, no waking up coughing, but she had a bad cough this morning. I told her I needed to get her dressed to go to daycare and she said "stay", meaning she wanted to stay with me... broke my heart, so I hugged her and told her "I am sorry baby but mami has to go to work", she hugged me back and said "I'm sorry...".... :crying:

I am still feeling really crappy, my throat hurts, so I need to get over it and take something, because I had a crappy sleep........ ugh!!!

[lexsmama]

aaaw! She's such a sweetie pie!

Lex's nurse at the pedi's office just called back. She said that they will check his urine one more time this afternoon to make sure he's fine. (Which we all know he is!) I guess I'll get a note written after this to tell them to back off, my kid's fine. lol.

[Momto3]

Hugs Claudia! Dani is such a sweetie. Hope you feel better soon!

[lexsmama]

Hugs Claudia! I hope you feel better soon.

[newmami]

Thanks ladies, I hate being sick!!

So now that one of my account managers is gone, they are going to reassign his customers to the other ones... am I too weird because it makes me sad that I will not be working with some of my old customers?????

[lexsmama]

Aaaw, can you request customers?

[willsmama]

:(
that sucks claudia! :( :(

[without]

:hi:

[lexsmama]

:hi:

[willsmama]

:dance:

I was down 1.4 yesterday. 16.8 total! In 1.2 pounds I will have lost 10% of my body weight! WHOOP!

now I just have to make it to new orleans and back for that week and not gain!

[lexsmama]

Yay Tracy!!! :cheer:

[willsmama]

Thanks! I am NERVOUS about the trip though, lots of temptations!

[without]

Way to go!!! Wahoo!!!

[newmami]

Yeah Tracy!!!! you will do ok in NO, stay away from the Begnies (sp???)

Hey Pam!!!

No I cannot request customers, they are reassigned to another account manager, and his/her assistant will take care of them... my heart is a little broken :(

[sarahlynn]

Good morning ladies :) were rearrangeing the office today so i havent been online so i just had a chance to pop in and say hell :)

[Momto3]

Yay Tracy! WTG!

[lexsmama]

Morning Sarah!

Aaw, I can't believe you can't keep customers. :(

[willsmama]

Lynn! I love your new pics! :)

I love Beignets! DH and and I are bringing our running gear though, so I can maybe have one and work it off? :)

[Momto3]

Lynn! I love your new pics! :)

I love Beignets! DH and and I are bringing our running gear though, so I can maybe have one and work it off? :)

Thanks Tracy! Gotta give props to all my babies!

I love the beignets too! I would so indulge and take the running gear to run off anything you did. You only live once!

They make awesome beignets at the Grand Lux Cafe here. I've been holding off but I think of them every time I drive by there!

[lexsmama]

I need to heat my lunch, but the dumb architects are in there going over what will be in the new research building... Sucks major. And my headache is coming back.

[newmami]

Beignets are the best... walk to the Cafe Du Mond and back to the hotel, so you burn the calories!!

Ash, sorry the headache is creeping....

[lexsmama]

I haven't had a good beignet in a while.. Sounds yummy.

Eh, took tylenol and am hoping for the best.

[newmami]

Hope the headache goes away Ash!!!

My throat is feeling worse by the minute... I wish I could stay home and sleep!!!

[bel]

I dont have a clue what a beignet is :dunno:

[newmami]

Bel, Beignets are this delicious pieces of fried dough covered in powder sugar. They are a staple from New Orleans, and probably each of them has like 100000 calories!!!

[lexsmama]

They're like pillowy sopapillas and donughts mixed into one. Oooohhh. drool.

I got to sneak in and grab lunch. Thank goodness.

I hope the headache goes away, too, or I'll be out tomorrow! lol.

[sarahlynn]

stop talking all this unhealthy crap would you please :)

Someone please motivate me.

I talked to my dad this afternoon after he took my mom to her evaluation. IT took like 3 hours. They decided on a program that runs i think 7 weeks and is mon-thur. Mon 8:30-3 and tue-thur from 8:30-12:00 so she still should be able to keep her business going and work around those hours. And hey like i told her if you need to take a month leave of absence its not the end of the world, the families she cleans for usualy have her once eveyr 2 weeks so they will live wihtout her for awhile..

other than that nothing much happenin here.

Friday lucea daycare is havin a small birthday party for her, Dh has his chemo, im trying to set up a jcpenny picture time to get luceas 2 year pics taken. I have a coupon for 7.99 now LADiES CAN I STICK TO THAT and not spent a fortune..i always do i can never choose one..

[without]

[newmami]

[sarahlynn]

Man i would love DH to have supper made for me, i told him to take out a chicken for me to cook..hmm maybe he cooked it

[Momto3]

DH cooks 5 out of 7 nights a week. I prefer to go home and relax a minute before jumping into making dinner. He prefers to get dinner started so we aren't eating at 8 pm. Go right ahead my dear...

[sarahlynn]

night ladies

[Momto3]

Nice work Lynn. :)

Thanks! It comes with age and having 3 husbands (not all at the same time, I'm not a polygamist).

[lexsmama]

Morning!

Went to the dr. Lex is a healthy little drinking boy. Perfect sedimentation rate, perfect sugar levels. The pedi knew what the hormonal problem was that the director talked about. It's somethinging to do with diabetes, in which he doesn't have. She wrote the director and teacher a note. She knew we didn't want to be there any more than we needed to, so the pedi was so sweet. Maybe they'll leave us alone now.

[without]

Good morning all! I am now alone in the office :( No sec. to pass my work off on LOL

Only one more day after today and its the weekend!!! Wahooo!!! Though I have a date this weekend that I got roped into and I really don't want to go but... I didn't want to hurt any one's feelings so I said yet. Sigh.... I wish there was a way to get out of this stupid thing!

Poor Lex I hope they let him alone now and stop harping on how much he drinks poor boy! Morgan drinks a lot too.

[lexsmama]

Dr said to have them call her from now on. lol. Uh oh.

No sec.?? I'm sorry!! I'd help, but they have me working today. lol.

Maybe the date'll end up fun. Just lay back and enjoy the ride!

[without]

We'll... I will go and be plesent and have fun but I am going to make it quite clear we will be nothing more than friends. I am to shallow for him. LOL I don't think I am a shallow person but compared to him I guess I am. We are going to dinner (had the plan set for over a week) on Sat. night to a higher end Thi place. He calls last night and says just wanted to let you know that Sat. night will have to be your treat. I don't have any money. This guy is 15 years older than me and doesn't have a penny to his name and lives in a little nasty whole in the wall house like thing. Also I found out that he stole a "part" from work and he will more than likely get fired for it when the boss finds out on Monday. Ugh! I don't need a man rolling in the dough by any means but I don't want to have to take care of a man. Kenny has no food in his house and no money. Twice this week I have taken him food because I feel sorry for him. Why can't I find a good guy.

[newmami]

Yay Lex for being in perfect health!!! I hope the teacher leaves you alone now!!! :pokey:

Pam, have fun in your date, like Ash said, just go with the flow and enjoy the time off
What happened with the new secretary??? maybe I should move to AR and take the job!!! :chinscratch:


Lynn, I also learned to let DH cook if he wants early dinner.... I am booked until 7 taking care of the kids!!! :lol:

I am starting to feel worse than I did before... I am so congested my brain is just not working... ugh!!! at least Dani is feeling better!!
So this morning Chris woke up 6:30, I went to get him and all he wanted was to snuggle with mom :wub:... so we stayed there in my room for about 10 min.... yeah I was late to work but WHO CARES!!!!!

[newmami]

OMG Pam, sounds like a loser......... if you are paying, go to a place you like AND you can afford!! and after that, tell Kenny to take a hike!!!

[Momto3]

Excuse me? He asked you on a date and now wants you to pay for it? Ummmmm that is a big NO fricking way Pam! Do not do that! NO NO NO!

Ashley - Glad you got the note from the doc and that Lex is perfect (we all knew that already).

[Momto3]

That is right Claudia! Who cares about being late. get those snuggles while we can! I'm gald Dani is feeling better but I wish you were too. Mama has got to take care of herself.

[lexsmama]

He wants YOU to pay?! Oh no, nuh uh. Either call it off or go somewhere you want to go.

Do you need to see someone about the congestion? Maybe try allergy medicine with a decongestant? Or Mucinex?

[without]

Oh.... Claudia... I am so sorry you still don't feel well. Your HIRED!!! My old sec is moving. :(

As far as Kenny goes... i just can't get past that the guy is 45 almost 46 and owns nothing! Not a pot or a pan no sheets not nothing! Even his toliet paper is stolen out of a public restroom. LOL On the other hand he is very funny and nice to hang around. I wouldn't mind being just his FRIEND but I would have to make myself lay out some clear boundries because I can't keep feeding him. For peat sakes I have been saving up to buy Morgan some close and sandels I can't be spending 10 buck on dinner for him 3 times a week I can't afford to do that for me. Sigh... I have such a hard time saying no and such a hard time when I know he is hungry. :( My mom tells me that I can't save the world before bed time but I sure like to try.

You are nicer than I, I would totally ditch him! :)

[newmami]

Me too Tracy!!!!
Pam, he is not giving you anything back... he is a leech sucking out from you.... he needs to go!!!

Clothes.... I have a box sitting in my car for you. I will mail Saturday, I promise!!!

[sarahlynn]

OK im trying to catch up here

PAM NO WAY tell this guy you dont have the extra cash either and you will pay for yourself and he can take care of his bill..grrr you shouldnt have to pay for both of you..


YAY for good health with lex :)

[without]

Claudia... Thank you so much but please please please don't feel as if I am begging you or asking! I feel bad now that I think about what I said! I have saved up 40 dollars for some clothes I just haven't had time to go get any. Please don't feel as if this was inteneded towards you!!! Sorry Friend!

[newmami]

Not at all Pam!! that box has been waiting for couple of days (till payday). I have been saving those clothes for Miss Morgan, I was just waiting for the "cold" season to be over, so I could send you couple of pants Dani barely used
You know how good it makes me feel to be able to help you!!!!

Sarah, how are things with your Mom?????

[Momto3]

Um Pam I am not kidding about this. How long has this guy lived near you? He sounds exactly like my ex husband (2nd one, not the kids Dad) and that is his age too. I'm a little scared...

Umm the scary part is his name is Ken.

[willsmama]

That would be TOO creepy!

[Momto3]

That would be TOO creepy!

Yeah but he also has a habit of moving from place to place. He has lived in Tennessee, California, Connecticut, Florida. So whereever Pam lives would not surprise me!

[newmami]

Eeks Lynn... wouldn't that be super creepy???????????

[Momto3]

It would claudia...He's harmless, but a leech. Before long he will have himself moved into her house and it will be her idea. That is exactly how he works. I hope its not him.

[willsmama]

I am drinking an energy drink right now.
MMM.
Zippy!
:)

[sarahlynn]

Sarah, how are things with your Mom?????

Well her and my dad went to the evaluation yesterday morning, took a good 2.5 hours. I talked to her and she said it went well, the treatment plan will be 5 week. Mon wil be 8:30-3 and tues-thur will be 8:30-noon. With this schedule she should be able to keep most of her business going which she really wanted to do. She really seems ready to do this, i know the road will be hard and there can be lots of bumps but man just to get to this point after 17 years of drinking i am stoked and happpy for her to have a chance to have her life back. They think insurance will cover most of the treatment, thank god because it can be spendy. I think she said most out of pocket will be $1000 which ya know isnt bad at all..she goes back to court onthe 7th :( for her 2nd driving while suspended so i have no idea how long she will get that time. i hope not long because i want her to start this treatment asap..so really its going better than ithougth. :)

[Momto3]

Sarah - How is your sister handling all this? Did your mom ever tell her herself? Do they know she knows?

[without]

Wow that does sound like this guy! He has lived all over the place! He is kind'a leech-E and he has only lived in Fayetteville for 3 weeks.

[Momto3]

I don't know how you got roped into the date but please, please, please do not go Pam. I don't like it!

[without]

He does the lawn care for a soritiy (sp) house accross from my building and one of the girls there begged me to go out with him because she thinks he is sweet. I talked to him on the phone a little and thought ok he is nice enough so I said yes and then after I said yes all the stuff came out about where he lived and about him not having money of food. :( I feel sorry for him but in a way I have to addopt the feeling of you are a 45 year old grown man and you made you bed and I can't save you from it.

I think what I will do is go to dinner with him and buy him some food for his house and then... not take his calls any more. That way I feel like I helped him a little but I owe him nothing more than that. I have done my human kindness.

[newmami]

I would not buy him food Pam, you have no obligation (besides the moral one) towards him, and obviously he knows what he is doing because so far he has survived without food or money, right??? but if it makes you feel better, then go ahead...
Yes he made his bed, he needs to sleep on it!!!

Sarah, glad your mom accepted the treatment, I hope she does well in court and that she doesn't have to do more time

Someone please tell my customers to stop bugging me today with their questions???
Thank you!!!

[willsmama]

I wouldnt' buy him anything either.....

[without]

STOP BuGG'n Claudia! (hope that helps lol)

Just breaks my heart to see some one living like he does but I have to tell myself he must like it or he would do some thing to change it. I mean I have had to fight to get where I am he doesn't seem to really be fighting to make a change in his own life.

[lexsmama]

I don't know, Pam. Sounds iffy to me. I wouldn't do it.

LEAVE Claudia alone, people! lol. (Help at all?)

[willsmama]

STOP BuGG'n Claudia! (hope that helps lol)

See, then if that were ME, and I fought hard to get where I was and sAw someone else WASTING their life and taking handouts nonetheless, it would make me disrespect them even more!

Ok. I am done! :)

:truce:

[sarahlynn]

Pam he is a grown man, take him to eat somwhere cheep and give him the classified ads so he can find a good paying job to buy his own food..OK?!

:)

Sorry, but I agree.

Looking up things to do for teacher appreciation for Lex's teachers...

That is exactly right Pam. My teens Dad is like that. He doesn't get a better job and he always rents a room from someone else because he does NOT want the responsibility (nor can he handle it) of having to pay the bills on a timely basis. So he pays one amount to someone else and let them worry about it. His cell phone is turned off all the time because he doesn't get there to pay the bill. (Doesn't have a checking account either).

[without]

Thats just so sad. :(

[Momto3]

Thats just so sad. :(

True! But, at 51 y/o its his choice to live that way...no one elses and that is the same thing with this Kenny guy. He chooses to live that way!

[sarahlynn]

mmm lunch..soup and an old samich..

hmmm

[newmami]

Pam he is a grown man, take him to eat somwhere cheep and give him the classified ads so he can find a good paying job to buy his own food..OK?!

El Presidente has spoken, so I don't have anything else to add..... :rolly:

It did worked!! they stopped bugging me..... :woot:

[willsmama]

I had beef jerky for lunch.
It is protienalicious! :)

[Momto3]

I had a protein bar and a pudding supplement.

[newmami]

I had salad an a pseudo calzone I made with bisquit dough and bolognesa... and some watermelon

[without]

I forgot my lunch again!!

[lexsmama]

I had a healthy choice thingy with meatloaf. Egh. Not bad, not good.

Went to Staples. Got 20 notepads made for teacher appreciation week next week for $36. ($4 cutting charge.) :woot:

[newmami]

Sounds like a good deal Ash!!!

I didn't knew about teacher's appreciation week.... in Mexico May 15 we celebrate Teacher's day

So who in here celebrates Cinco de Mayo???????

[Momto3]

I used to...when I drank tequila! :clap:

[lexsmama]

We may do something. My bff wants to keep her son's native heritage going, since he's adopted.

I was excited to get the price I did! I got some notecards and pens to bundle with vintage seam binding for them.

[without]

Monday we are having a big Cincode Mayo party at work.

[newmami]

Ok ladies, let me share a secret... we Mexicans do not celebrate 5 de Mayo!!!
People here believe that is our Independence celebration, but it is not!! that one we celebrate Sep 16.

Anyways..... I found this tray that looks like a sombrero and plays music when you push a button, I want to get it for my BIL!!!

[Momto3]

Ok ladies, let me share a secret... we Mexicans do not celebrate 5 de Mayo!!!
People here believe that is our Independence celebration, but it is not!! that one we celebrate Sep 16.

!

So how come we celebrate for you? Just another day to drink for us?

[lexsmama]

So how come we celebrate for you? Just another day to drink for us?

hehe.. yeah.

Seriously, though, why do we celebrate it then?

[newmami]

I have no idea why people celebrate it here.... my only guess is that because it is easier to pronounce than QUINCE DE SEPTIEMBRE!!! :lol:

There was a battle on 05/05 against the French that we won at the beginning, but then we lost... nothing to celebrate here!! it is not even a holiday in Mexico

[without]

Cinco de Mayo (the "Fifth of May" in Spanish) commemorates Mexico's victory over French forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. Unfortunately, this initial victory was short-lived. The French onslaught continued, and French forces ultimately succeeded in gaining control of the country and occupying it until 1867.

Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's Independence Day, as some assume. Mexico had officially gained its independence from Spain some four decades before the conflict with France . Mexico celebrates September 16 -- the anniversary of the start of its War for Independence from Spain -- as its Independence Day (called "Grito de Dolores").

In fact, Cinco de Mayo ranks as only a regional holiday in Mexico. It is not celebrated as a national holiday. But in the United States and in other parts of the world, it has developed into a celebration of Mexican heritage.

[newmami]

Thanks Miss Pam!!!

Ash, hope at least you had fun!!.. coaster sounds pretty tacky....

I realized I suck at trying to sell stuff on Craigs list, and it makes me feel better when I help people in need, so the clothes are being donated! I have received so much stuff from total strangers, I am just paying back!!

So call me paranoid, but I am starting to have this feeling that my supervisor will eventually do anything she can to kick me out of here... I don't think she likes my guts and that I am mouthy :pokey:..... ugh, time to look for another job

We are going to a Kids festival tomorrow... I contacted the cleaning lady but she hasn't called me back... time to find someone else, because obviously she doesn't want my business :wtf:

DH forgot to ask me this morning how I am feeling.... I just loooove being appreciated and cared for.........:rant:

[Momto3]

Claudia - that's ok about your job...you don't like that place anyway. Hopefully your office hubby will come around and have a job over where he went to.

Btw...How are you feeling today?

[CandiceLeigh]

I hate to pop in on you guys and ask for support when I rarely come in here anymore, but I really need a hug today. :crying:

[bel]

Hello friday ladies!!!:gome:

I had such a wonderful holiday yesterday!!! It was cold and rainy (tons like all day long) sooooo perfect to stay at home and cudle in bed! Since Herme went home I made lunch for my whole family (which I love to do, and get all this "how delicious" compliments :D) I made beans, pork and bacon casserole with rice, and a veggies souffle for me...

My MIL was also home with us, so we watched tv, chated and drank "mate" all afternoon (mate= herbs in a cup with a kins of metalic straw, where you add to it a lil of hot water (or cold in summer), over and over, tastes like a tea) helps a lot with hunger:rolly:
Then I made dinner, light pizza in pita bread for me :wink: spaghetis for the rest of them.
Then suddenly I got the energy to clean my three night stand messed drawers:shock: I hate messed up drawers but I dont usually have the time/energy to organize, clean and throw **** out :P It feels awesome to have it done :yeehaw: I did the others on wednesday remember? Now if I just organize my 100 shoes (most of them still packed from moving, Ill be all set!

Clau,l yeah time for looking for another job, since months ago actually :wink:

Ash I missed you, any new pics of scrappbooking? Im still buying scrapbook stuff, Im not sure when I will be ready!

Lynn, I hear you they grow way too fast, when I see Ceci arround and the only thing she needs and loves is her Ipod, I just cant believe my baby is so grown up already :crying:

Saratoo I missed you tons yesterday too :)

[sarahlynn]

Happy Friday ladies..

Dh is at chemo this morning, i get done at noon today YAY!!!

I need to plan out the teacher appreciation week thingy this weekend

[sarahlynn]

(((((((((((((((((((((((HUGS )))))))))))))))))))))

candice what is wrong hun?

[bel]

:comfort: HUGS Candice!!! :comfort:
What happened?!??! :(

[CandiceLeigh]

I've been having a rough week with DH being a true DH if you know what I mean. We had a BIG, HUGE fight last night because I asked him to do 1 thing (bathe Chris) and he said he would do it but then he never did. No, the fight wasn't just about him not doing the ONE thing I asked him to do. ALL FREAKING week he's been acting like a jerk and we have hardly spoken. :rant:He hasn't been helping around the house AT ALL and I'm just so over it. Then to be treating me bad when I haven't even done anything to deserve it?!?! Plus, he's got his whole weekend planned out with his buddies and of course none of that includes me or Chris. Did he ask me if it was ok? If I had plans? NO! :crossed:I went out to see a movie on Tuesday with my sister and was gone max 2 hours and the next day he's complaining about how I never go see movies with him, but I always go with my sister. WTF?!?!?! YOU go out to the effing bar and stay out till 2 freaking clock in the morning and I hardly even say anything, but I can't go see a movie? F YOU DH!! :po:

I totally told him to leave...and he did.

[newmami]

:grouphug: I am so sorry Candice!!! I don't know what else to say.... your story sounds a little too familiar :(

Sarah, hope Matt does well with the chemo!!
Yay Lulu for no more diapers!!!

Hey Bel, when you feel like organizing, you can come to my house!!!

[without]

Oh no Candice! I am so sorry! Hugs! If you want to talk PM or I can call you!

[Momto3]

Hugs Candice - I hope you guys get things worked out.

Sarah - I hope Matt's chemo goes smoothly. Yay for big girl Lulu in her big girl panties. So proud!

Bel - Yay for cleaning.

[lexsmama]

Hugs Candice!!!

Hope the chemo goes well, Sarah.

Glad you had a good day, Bel! Not many new pages as of yet.

I'm home. I'm so sick and tired of work. I went and got some things done, will take a shower, do laundry, and take a nap. My neck is so tight that I think that's where the hedaches are coming from.

[CandiceLeigh]

Thanks for the hugs. I'm just kinda numb to it all right now. I was crying a bit ago, but that's just 'cause I was talking to my co-worker about it and telling her how Chris recognizes DH's car (it's a loud racing car) so when he heard him drive off last night he looked at me smiling and said, "Dada? Dada?" :crying: I wish I could go home for the day, but I need to save my vacation time. We're supposed to go to San Antonio at the end of the month, and I will go with or without DH. I hope we can work it out, but I'm tired of being the one to give every time. It's his turn.

[bel]

Im so sorry sweetie!!! :hugs: you will resolve it, you will see :(

Awww saratoo good luck with Matt!

You girls I dont want to come this afternoon!

[willsmama]

Hi ladies! HUGS! YAY FRIDAY!

I am going to new orleans until 5/13, so i'll be gone until 5/14! don't forget me! :)

[Momto3]

Have a great time Tracy! And have a beignet for me!

[willsmama]

Oh, I will! :) Can't pass it up, even if I have to run 3 miles to get rid of it. ;)

[newmami]

Are you leaving tomorrow Tracy??? have a wonderful time in NOLA!!!!

Candice, I hear you sweetie... it gets old being the one who always gives.... I hope with all my heart you and Chris can work things out :comfort:

Ash, sorry about the neck pain... is it stress??? hope you can relax a little bit and get that headache out!!!

I am feeling better today, the medication is working.... but my ears are so congested I can barely here.... which may not be that bad at work, huh??? :rolly:

So call me paranoid, but I am starting to have this feeling that my supervisor will eventually do anything she can to kick me out of here... I don't think she likes my guts and that I am mouthy :pokey:..... ugh, time to look for another job
Well, apparently I do have a good gut feeling, because I learned today, from another person, that they are removing me from being the Real Estate Manager's assistant... how nice of my supervisor who told me first, huh???. I told the Manager because I know he will complain, but now more than ever I have that "get me out of here PRONTO" feeling......

I went to have lunch with DH.... told him about the issue here, and he said NOTHING...... why do I even bother talking to him???? he is out the rest of the day, and asked me if I needed something, told him to make the grocery list and he went :wtf:, so I said NEVERMIND, I will do it tomorrow.....
ACK!!!!!! :headbang::scream:

[without]

This day is draging!

[newmami]

Yes it is Pam... like a good Friday....... :sleepy:

So I just applied to another job out of here!!! :shock: I emailed my ex office husband and told him about the whole issue, because I needed to vent... he called me PRONTO and his first words were "I wish there was something here for you"...... it is nice to know someone else (besides you my friends) actually care!!!

[Momto3]

Hope something comes along fast Claudia....or maybe not...geez, if they got rid of you and you didn't have another job and HAD to be a SAHM oh darn it....:winks:

[lexsmama]

Aaaw, Claudia! I'm SO sorry! I hope something opens up for you.

I just got a call from dh. The certification office won't grant him his certificate because of some senior seminar he hasn't taken. WTH?? The man has been teaching 5 years this year... WTH?? His principal is pissed and wants to look for someone else. What are we going to do? He said he's going to see if they'll at least grant him probationary certification while he finishes this summer. I'm so mad at the univerisity and my dh right now. I'm now stuck in my job, unless he finds smething somewhere else. Anyone know where a man with a masters in physics can get a job??

[Momto3]

oh Ash! How long would it take him to take the seminar?

[lexsmama]

He thinks one summer session, and get his withhelds fixed in his two classes. So, July? I'm hurt and fuming.

[Momto3]

I hope he can talke the principal into being reasonable and granting him an extension on taking it.

[lexsmama]

the guy's a jerk. He likes power trips. Talked to him twice already about how dh "put him in a bad position." He keeps saying he's looking for another teacher. Dh said to do what he thinks he needs to do.

[willsmama]

I do leave tomorrow! I am sorry Claudia!!!!! I would start looking too. wouldn't hurt to have something in your back pocket.

[newmami]

That sucks big time Ash...... a stupid paper is more important than him being a good teacher, huh???
I hope he can get that certification or find a super job where you can SAH!!!

[without]

Ugh!!! Stupid loop wholes like that is why I hate working at a University! Sorry!

[without]

Claudia.... I need a girls night badly...ya want to meet me 1/2 and we can get dinner. LOL If only we lived closer hu!

[willsmama]

How far are you from Louisiana!? HA!

[without]

Sixteen hour drive lol

[newmami]

I know Pam...... couple of times I have been tempted to just drive there with the kids, but it is too far..... (I actually looked on google maps)

Are you ok with the tornadoes and all the bad weather???

My supervisor called me and apologized for the way things were handled... I was obviously upset on the phone, as I only said yes/no... she asked if I had any suggestions, I just said no (why bother?? like she cares!!!)

I am thinking on writing DH a letter and REALLY tell him how I feel... I should make some time this weekend

Almost time to go home ladies!! have a beautiful weekend

[Momto3]

Claudia - did you ever find a man about a thing?

[bel]

Im so sorry Ash, I only get half of what you said but man! good luck!!! :comfort:

Well Clau, if it helps you, write him! :)

Have a nice week end!

[lexsmama]

Hope you girls are having a good weekend. dh's trying to get lex down for the night. He had a long afternoon at his little friend's 3rd birthday party. I'll post pics on Monday. Tomorrow is a day with the inlaws.

[sarahlynn]

popping on for a minute while lulu is in the tub, her B-day party (well one of them) is tomarow..the other one will be in a few weeks when matts mom comes down for the ms walk...also had her 2 year pics taken, instead of spending thte $8 from the coupon i spent $56 :doh: oh well they are adorable

[lexsmama]

Aaaw! As long as you love the pics, that's all that matters. I ususlly end up with about $100 in pics somehow. lol.

Good luck and have fun with lucea's party today!

[without]

How did every ones weekend go? Mine Rocked! Guess what!!!! We went to try on dresses for my sisters wedding and... the dress looks so bad on me but on the good side...Get Ready.....OK are you ready......




I had to get a size .......18!!!! Girls at Christmas I was in a size 22!!!!

I still have 25 pounds to go and I still hate the dress and I am still the fatest girl in the wedding party but....I can do this!!! I can lose the weight!!!

[lexsmama]

Rock that weight loss, Pam!!! Woo hoo!!! :clap:

We got some serious bedroom cleaning done this weekend. We spent time with inlaws, and yes, I was bored to tears. But, it was nice for Lex.

We see the neurologist tomorrow afternoon to find out results and most likely give some more blood/vials. Poor dh. He's ready, though.

If I can find a cord to upload with, I have some fun pics from Gerson's party Saturday. (And yes, I think I look like I've lost a bit of weight in them!)

[Momto3]

WTG Pam! You can do this!

Sarah - Yay for adorable pictures!

OMG you guys...Friday night Katelyn choked on a piece of pizza...I mean no sound coming out, panic look in her eyes. DH is slapping her on the back and I reached in her mouth with my finger like a hooked and cleared her throat. I don't knbow if I pushed it down or pulled it out but it was so fricking scary. I cried afterward. My BIGGEST fear is that she will choke and I won't be able to save her. Much smaller bites and we watch her like a hawk. She stuffs alot in her mouth.

[lexsmama]

:comfort: I'm so sorry Lynn! I know that's one of my biggest fears, too. Aside from waking up to a little one not breathing.

[without]

Scary!!! I fear that one of the kids in nursery at church will choke and I won't be able to help them.

[newmami]

Morning ladies!! sorry it is Monday again

Lynn, how scary with Katelyn!! I am glad nothing major happened and it was just a scare. :comfort:
Dani choked once with goldfish, I reacted the same way you did, finger in and dig for the sucker... it is the worst feeling ever!!

Pam, WTG on the weight loss!! :clap::cheer: keep on going and you will look gorgeous in that dress!!
So how was the date????

Ash yes!! share pictures with us!!

Our weekend was blah... I still feel like crap (trying to go to the Dr today) and Chris got sick as well..... plus DH and I had a HUGE argument... I told him how I was feeling with his lack of interest and his passive agressive comments, and I said that if it wasn't for the kids, I would not be there..... and that I was tired of being the one who had to accomodate and bend over to fulfill other's needs.... he said couple of things that were very hurtful, then he apologized when he realized how much of an arse he was, and then the afternoon went ok.... he even asked what I wanted for mother's day, and confessed he forgot
We will see how that goes, because I am tired of talking, things changing for a while, and then back on square one :ohno:

[sja1508]

Hey ladies! Tara and I had a great trip to Savannah. The bed and breakfast was wonderful and we had such a relaxing time going to the beach and sightseeing. Zack had a fun time with Tara's folks and hardly even asked about us. The took him to the park, mcdonald's playland, feeding the ducks and playing outside so I don't think he really wanted us to come home...LOL! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!!!

[lexsmama]

Uploading to photobucket as we type! I'll have pics in the Pic section within 5 minutes!

[newmami]

Awww Stacy, I am glad Zack had a wonderful weekend and that you and Tara had some adult time... I love Savannah, did you go to the lady & sons????

Forgot to tell you guys we bought crayola fingerpaint... OMG Dani was goind NUTS with that thing!! too cute, we made handprints for abuela (and for Mami!!!)

[Momto3]

Yay Stacey! So glad the trip was good!

Claudia - I am so sorry you had to fight with DH. I pray things get better for you. Can't wait to see Dani's masterpieces!

[lexsmama]

Yay Stacy! Glad you had a good trip! :clap:

Glad Dani had fun with fingerpaints, Clau!

Have you thought about the flat canvases at Walmart (or any craft store anyway) and some foam brushes/paint? Lex is in love with those right now. Yes, I'm cruisin' for one letting him use acrylics, but we immediately bathe. lol.

We got bath crayons for Lex and he had a blast!

[newmami]

Ash, that sounds like a good idea... I am sure Dani will LOVE it!! she loves anything that means getting messy
We got her a little robe from Crayola that covers her top, and then she only wears diaper when she is coloring, so we can avoid clothes to get stained

Dani painted with brushes on a festival (but in paper, not canvas) and she had a blast!

[lexsmama]

That's what these were..

http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f144/litlebakergrl/art001.jpg

He dabs his little foam brush into the little bit of paints I give him on a paper plate (or muffin tins!) and goes after it. We're in only diaper, too. lol. Learned the hard way.

[bel]

Morning ladies :)
It´s monday again, Im lazy LOL loved all this days at home, the thursday holiday plus sat and sunday was awesome LOL

I got so mad at O on saturday, he was LAZY to take me to the argentinan border to buy my diet stuff way cheaper than here (it´s only 30 min from here) so I got pissed as heck with him...he wont make not even a tiny effort to help me loose weight :( he can be a jerk sometimes, then he said "im imposible when I am in a bad mood" the jerk :headbang:

Well, he knows Im still mad and when Im mad, I wont talk/touch him...so we had a blah weekend:pokey:

Yesterday I cooked for lunch nocchis alfredo for my whole family (nocchies with cream sause with jam, cheese, chicken and bacon) and condensed milk/chocolate cream for dessert...they loved it then my niece Stefi stayed with us, and we went to the mall, we left the kiddos with the sitter at the playground and went socks hunting for santi.
After that we came home, I made homemade pizzas and then Watched Desperate Housewifes.:silly: Im sad because I miss him, but Im still mad at him :crossed: he will get my silence/ignoring treatment until I feel better.
And I didnt start my pills on saturday that means a month without sex HA!

[lexsmama]

:comfort: Aaaw, Bel, I'm so sorry O was such a jerk!

[newmami]

Bel, sorry O was so selfish.... it really makes me upset that men think they are entitled to be selfish!!! :crossed:

I am going to try the paint with Dani!! do you use the acrilic ones they sell on craft stores??? those get out OK from the skin... not the clothes

I am so congested I feel like my brain is going to explode!!!! has anyone tried the mucinex?? does it work?? :fever:
I called the doctor's office and they don't have any appointments for emergencies until Wednesday!!! the snotty receptionist told me "well go to the urgent care".... ummm yeah that is $75 copay Vs $25 lady!!! :pokey:
Time to find a new family doctor.... UGH!

[without]

Bel... and Claudia sorry your DH's are being pains!

I love kids art work!!! its GREAT!

Oh.. and the date.... well... if it were not for the fact that I was buying and that I told him I detest smoking and it makes Morgan sick and he smoked any way it would have been a good date. Sigh.... at least the food was good.

[lexsmama]

:comfort:

[newmami]

Oi Pam.... at least the food was good and it is over, right??? :hugs:

Couple weeks ago someone posted in Random about figuring out what are the 4-5 most important things in your life, and how you needed to work towards them (kind of on the same lines of The Last Lecture)... anyways, I have been meaning to do that, because I feel like I have lost sight and control about my life.......

Oh and after reading couple of posts today, I think I am going to stick to this place and the picture forum....

[without]

OH.. yes!!! Its so so over! I wanted to be able to just be his friend but he made it quite clear he doesn't know how to just be friends and I am afraid I would let him use me.

Yep ... I stick to hear and memebers market ;)

Speaking off I try not to double post but..

I need one of these in a DD if any one sees a good used one some where on line please let me know I can't afford to spend 75 dollars on one.

[Momto3]

Pam - I responded over there. I have one you could have, but its not a DD. Its (I think) a C.

[without]

OH!! and tell me if you think this is lame. My mom's new thing is... she wont except a gift from me if its over 20 bucks. I think she is being stupid about it and taking the fun out of it for me so here is what I am doing for her for Mothers day. I got her a movie (27 dresses) that she asked for and then I am taking the remainder of the money I would have spend on her and buy food for a needy family in her honor. That way she cant refuser the gift. Do you think thats a lame thing for me to do?

[Momto3]

Its not lame, its a nice thing to do.

I didn't mean to but DH has been working at Macy's for like 2 months now and he needed to go in for like 20 minutes on Saturday so Katelyn and I went with him and they were having a really good sale and I bought her 4 outfits (for church) that totaled $54. Not to shabby!

[without]

Wow!!! Thats a great price!

I hope my mom doesn't think its lame! If she does oh well she should have let me buy her a gift! LOL

[Momto3]

Here's some pictues of her: (sorry if they are large. Photobucket keeps shutting down on me.

Goofy girl

If I let Morgan paint on a flower pot for my mom for Mothers day what kind of paint do I use?:celebrate:

[Momto3]

Not sure but I know they have paint for this stuff.

[tralynne75]

Hey Ladies,
I have not posted in here in so long you probably have forgotten who i was. LOL!!!!
Everytime I pull up this thread it tells me there is script running and shuts my pc down. GGGRR it took me 4 trys to even get to post.
anyway, Lynn Katelyn is a doll as usual. I looked at that outfit for Katie this weeked, I went to a Belk charity sale.
happy birthday lucea. I can not believe she is 2 already.

[without]

Welcome back! lol

[without]

Sarah.... what happened to the Random gift thing??? I have only seen one so far am I missing it some where?

[newmami]

Those are adorable outfits Lynn!! :silly:

Pam, I guess you can use acrilic paint on the pot and then put a clear coat??? maybe miss Ash knows better!! :dunno:
I think it is a good idea to do the food donation in honor of your mom!!!

:hi: Hey Tracy!! how are your princesses doing???

So what are your Mother's Day plans?? I need to decide where to go eat, and what do I want for present (am I too practical because I want some shirts???)

[without]

Claudia I love practical! LOL

We will go eat with my mom for Mothers day. :)

[Momto3]

I'm not sure what we are doing for mother's day. I know I need to take my mom out since she is my mother, but just once I'd like to just kick back and relax on the day. It will never happen but a girl can dream! Also we may have to go to Ft. Pierce on Saturday so that we can take step-MIL out for mother's day or we may just wait to see them until the end of the month. IDK. Gas is so high and I hate to drive up (2 hours each way) if they are coming down on the 31st as we celebrate Katelyn's birthday.

[lexsmama]

Wow, I go to Staples and come back to a whopping post! lol.

I'd use acrylic paints and then a clear coat spray paint. It's a blue and orange can. American Crafts, maybe?

I LOVE the ideas for your mom, Pam! Donations are so wonderful.

I was asked last night, "so, do Lex and I have discussed two things. Would you rather have something for you or for the home for Mother's Day?" Umm...

[sarahlynn]

Sarah.... what happened to the Random gift thing??? I have only seen one so far am I missing it some where?

were on about the 4th person :) should have went out this weekend or early this week :)

so any day now we should see something arriveing somewhere :)

[without]

Rats Sarah!!! I always seem to miss what every one is getting!

[lexsmama]

Rats Sarah!!! I always seem to miss what every one is getting!

Me too. It's okay, Pam.

[Momto3]

I'm leaving today at 3...to take my son to get his driver license permit...yep, you guessed it...he passed the test! I'm scared!

[newmami]

Eeeks Lynn!! I am sure Tyler will be a responsible driver

I just sent DH an email with 2 options for Mother's Day. I want to do a gospel brunch at the House of Blues (it is awesome!!) hope we can get tickets
As his son is most likely staying with us, I was stressed about finding a place where he would eat (he is disgustingly picky) but then I thought... WTH, if he doesn't like it, that is not my problem!!!

[Momto3]

As his son is most likely staying with us, I was stressed about finding a place where he would eat (he is disgustingly picky) but then I thought... WTH, if he doesn't like it, that is not my problem!!!


screw that Claudia! Its MOTHER"S day, NOT step-son day! You go where you want!

[without]

I agree! Go and do what you want!

Humm.... refress my remember-er... where the heckey do is Bel?

[lexsmama]

She had gone to pick up Ceci, but that's all me know.

[without]

its slow in here this after noon

[lexsmama]

uh huh, sure is.

[newmami]

I am actually working....

Oh and get this, I went to make me some chai tea, and someone here STOLE my milk!!! ugh I am so upset!!!!

[lexsmama]

Ooohhhh... who's got the milk mustache??

WTC?! They deleted me from the university's system! I needed on there.

[brcarrie]

I just have to come in here and vent, sorry I know I don't post much. Why is it ok for coworkers to talk mean???? I am the one who changes everything in the Library because I am the systems admin but why is it ok to talk nasty to me? Just tell me nice that the new system is doing something wrong...ex Carrie could you please put the title of the book back on the reciept printers. No I get it would be nice to have the title on here(pointing to the print out and talking all mean.)

[without]

Ugh! Carrie!!! I know what you mean my sister and I were just talking about this! Tact people have lost it!

My new Sec. starts today at 10. He hasn't even walked in the door and I already have students telling me they won't like him. GRRR!!! give the poor boy a chance!

[lexsmama]

Oh, Carrie, I'm so sorry!

[brcarrie]

Ugh Pam they have to give him a chance!

Thanks guys that was just really bothering me yesterday. Do babies get any shots at the two year visit? I can't remember. I have to take Isabel today at 1:00. I can't believe she is two now! I put her in pigtails today and they were so cute, I will have to take a pic.

[Momto3]

Yes, we need an updated pic.

Pam - How do they know they won't like him?

[without]

Morgan didn't need any shots at her 2 year appointment.

Well... one person said "you know we don't work well with a male sec." and another talked about how they knew his EX wife from 5 years ago and how he is a pig blah blah blah... Well... he maybe I don't know but she doesn't know because she is only getting the wifes side of things. Any way I cant discrim. aginst him for those things! I have to fallow hiring laws. LOL

[newmami]

People are so judgmental and intolerant it just makes me upset and frustrated..... actually there is a lady in the office who is on my last nerve because of her comments, it has been couple of times that I have told her pretty much to mind her own business.......

I still don't understand why people think they have the divine right to criticise and judge what other people do..... NOT YOUR LIFE, NOT YOUR PROBLEM!!!

Sorry Pam and Carrie, that you have to deal with these kind of people....... :comfort:

So Lynn, how did the appointmen at the DMV went???????

[sarahlynn]

Hey lucea has her two year appt today at 11:20 and i dont want her to have shots..i'm thinking if the only one she needs is the mmr i will delay it..so she doesnt need any..why am i always a nervous wreck before shots and appts like this. i hate shots darn it..

[brcarrie]

I don't know Sarah but I am the same way. I just hate to see my kids in pain. She has the MMR so I don't think she will get any today.

What day is lucea birthday? I know it is close to Isabel but I can't remember. Isabel's was the 2nd of May and we are going to have her party this weekend. I can't wait...I know what some of her presents are and she is going to love them. One is a baby stroller from her aunt and she is really going to like that. We got her the loving family doll house and she has played with that more than any other toy. We mainly have boy toys from Zachary.

[Momto3]

So Lynn, how did the appointmen at the DMV went???????

It went great Claudia, thanks for asking. I took him to a parking lot and let him do some driving after......I'm scared!

[newmami]

:eyebrow:He will be fine Lynn!!! but I can see that now you have another thing to worry about (specially with the drivers here in FL! !)

Sarah, I do not recall Dani getting shots on her 2 years appointment.... hope everything goes well with LuLu and Isabel

My throat hurts when I swallow... I went to the Urgent care place this morning (as my Dr couldn't squeeze me in) and the Dr said I do not have strep nor an infection, so he just gave me something to numb the throat, but I am still miserable:pace: I wish I was irresponsible enough to just stay home and say screw it with work.......

[Momto3]

:eyebrow:He will be fine Lynn!!! but I can see that now you have another thing to worry about (specially with the drivers here in FL! !.....

Oh yeah, HE will be fine, me on the other hand...not so much. I'm going to need to color my hair every other week from all this grey hair. Actually I should probably hire a teacher to teach him how. You know those driving schools.

I wish I was irresponsible enough to just stay home and say screw it with work.......


Sweetie you don't feel well! Thats not irresponsible to stay home and get better! I hope you get to feeling better soon.

I forgot how s-l-o-w new sec.'s are. Lol

[newmami]

He he he Pam!!! it will take him some time to figure things out

BTW I sent you the box yesterday, hope it gets there soon!

I have lots of work to do, but I just don't care anymore........

[lexsmama]

Hey girls. I'm back from my meetings. We get results today! 3:30. Ohmygosh. My tummy's in knots. lol.

How'd driving go, Lynn? I know it's going to take lots of bottles of hair dye. lol. I know I'll have to do the same when Lex gets that age.

Clau, you may want to think about resting. It's not irresponsible AT all.

[sarahlynn]

Hey ladies, our computers crashed at work today and i was without internet for a bit this morning. I had to take lucea to her 2 year check up, went well. she is 24.4lbs and 32 inches tall. No shots because i OOOPS forgot to mention we needed the MMR..im such a baby, its not that i think it will hurt her ya know (autism thing) but i hate seeing her in pain and she has a cold so i didnt want her body to have to fight anything more.

[lexsmama]

Uh oh! It's okay, Sarah! You can give her tylenol and a sucker with the mmr later. :wink:

[without]

Ahhh... Claudia thanks! I love you girl!

[sarahlynn]

I don't know Sarah but I am the same way. I just hate to see my kids in pain. She has the MMR so I don't think she will get any today.

Someone wants to come here and organize the pile of papers sitting in my desk???

:anyone:


:lol:

Ash, what are your meetings about?? a new position??? GOOD LUCK!!! :luck:

[lexsmama]

Church meetings... Blech.

Off to see a neurologist...

[sarahlynn]

we just had a neurologist appt..tis the season..i hope all goes well..keep us posted

you guys i havent done anything allll day today, im so lazy at work. The boss is gone and i dont want to really work on anything. i have a **** load of filing that needs to be done and calls and stuff.

[lexsmama]

Well, the MRI came back with a mild herniated disk at C6 & C7, wherever those are. It also shows a cyst at the base of his brain. She doesn't seem too worried about this. 6 months, another MRI. Me, I'm freaking. Mil broke into tears on the phone. Isn't a cyst and a benign tumor the same thing??

She did bloodwork that'll take about 3-4 weeks to come back, so we see her again on the 5th of June. She said if nothing comes back that jumps out at her, we're onto the genetic testing. In the meantime, she got onto him for not filling his neurontin and gave him cholesterol medicine. hehe.. I knew that day would come, Mr. "I only eat meat and potatoes, pork fat and fried foods are my friend... Just like Emeril." lol.

[Momto3]

Ashley - Hugs to you and DH. Could the cyst at the base of the brain be pushing on something? I hope you guys get some answers soon!

Morning ladies!

[lexsmama]

That's what I kind of thought, too. I thought it could also end up cancerous if they don't do something. I have no clue, but she wasn't very concerned yet.

[sarahlynn]

HUGs Ashley, im sorry you didnt get some real good solid answers.

WEll i had my stomach in knots all night and morning, my mom had court this morning for the 2nd driving while suspeneded offense. The judge gave her 10 days, but suspended 6 so she will be out mothers day :( iwanted to cry i was so happy they did that for her.

[Momto3]

Aww that is good news Sarah.

[lexsmama]

Yay Sarah! That's wonderful news!

[newmami]

Sarah, it is great that your mom will be out for MD

I don't mind the actual dental work, its just so fricking expenseive! Why can't it be like you go to the doctors...$5.00 co-pay and you are out the door.

[lexsmama]

I'm so freakishly scared of dentists that I have two teeth that need bigtime work, and I just won't go.
I hope the swelling goes down quickly, Pam!

[sarahlynn]

Bel you look great in our pics you posted, i am so proud of you.

I need to go to the dentist but they scare me and they are always negative and that drives me nuts. i wonder if i could fine one to pu tme out while they clean my teeth..problem is the ins company only lets us use one dentist or else we pay an arm and a leg.
