Hey guys. I am dying at work today! Over the weekend the power went out in my building, so they just powered back up this morning and it is hot! The AC is going but it's taking a long time to get the building to cool. :ohno: I am miserable! Thank goodness I'm leaving for lunch in 15 mins.

Where is Tracy?
I forgot to tell you guys...My "Miss Independent" teen has over drawn her checking account -$447. :ohno: She said she didn't know there was an overdraft charge every time she took money out! Now she won't have a paycheck to do anything with (gas, insurance, etc.) for about 4 weeks and I have to pay her car insurance! Life lessons...:eyebrow:

Eeks Candice!! hope the building cools down soon!!!
Lynn, sorry about the bank issues... yes she learned her first finance lesson the bad way.... I am sure Shelly feels like crap about it
How are you and Katelyn feeling??
I should go back to target and see what I can find... at least she was excited about the dresses!!
I am so done living in FL,.... the heat gives me a headache, and I am tired of sweating constantly :truce:
oh I didn't told you that yesterday Chris pulled the "take out the pooped diaper out while parents are not watching".... we came out of the shower and Dani said "Chris pee pee poo poo diaper".... I am like NO WAY!!!, yes, he took the diaper off and did some playing :X so we had to clean carpet and give Chris a quick bath.... YUCK!!!:doh:
One of my coworkers had a baby couple weeks ago and she brought her in today.... AWWWW I want another one!!! :shocker:

Lynn, it's so hard when you get your first checking account! I did that myself a few times. I have just recently gotten pretty good about balancing my check book and keeping up with all transactions.
Claudia, Chris did the same thing to me this weekend! Only he didn't smear it everywhere, thank goodness. I was in the bathroom myself and he came knocking on the door for me to let him in, but I wouldn't because usually he just comes in there and plays in the sink and I wanted a little privacy. When I opened the door and saw him holding the poopy diaper, I felt like a jerk. :shame:

I keep forgetting to tell you guys all this stuff.
Katelyn's new phrase is "Can I do that Mama?" She will see a commercial on tv..."Can I do that Mama?"
She will see a picture in her baby book..."Can I do that Mama?"
She will hear Tyler take his dog to the front door to go out..."Can I do that Mama?"
Stinker is soo funny!
newmami
08-25-2008, 01:31 PM
I love new phrases... Dani's new one is "I want it" or "I don't want it".... it honestly annoys me when she pulls those, specially if she doesn't say please, so whenever she goes "I want it" I say "I am happy for you, but no Please, no XXX"
Yeah I am cruel!!!

I just want out of here!!! my guy about a thing says I need to get out to make things better.... well yeah FIND ME A JOB!!!

Oh I know Ash... I have been so busy I don't even have time to look for another job!! but once things calm down, I will (it is on my to do list)
I am trying REALLY HARD not to let the crap in here bother me.... just do my work and whatever..... Therapist said "just because you feel invisible at work, it doesn't mean people are not looking and noticing what you do"... and I am not expecting THANK YOUs anymore, to stop making myself miserable!

Morning ladies...not happy with DH. We have different parenting styles and he loves to point out when he thinks I take the wrong route with the teens. Makes me feel like ****. No one is perfect.

Hugs Lynn, sorry! Men don't have a clue some times!
Sarah... do you have pictures? Can I see what you making?
Ashley, Glad to hear that he had a blast going back to school!
Claudia, I understand your worry about speach Morgan talks all the time but is still kind of hard to understnad at times.
Candice, HI *WAVES* is the a/c working better today?
Any one hear from Tracy, Bel , or Stacy?
newmami
08-26-2008, 08:53 AM
Hi ladies!!
I am sure Stacy is super busy enjoying Mr. Cooper!! :stroller1:
Bel, she posts on Random... last thing I heard she got the house she wanted, and her DH was offered a super better job... she is probably out celebrating!!! :celebrate:
Tracy... she is the only one who works!!! :lol:
Lynn, so sorry about the parenting styles... I understand what you mean because the same happens in my house... again I think your Dh needs to understand that YOU are the one who makes the decision when it comes to the teens, and not him... maybe that is why Katelyn kicked him!! :laugh:
Pam, forgot to mention that I am glad you had nice conversations with Mike... if he is meant to be THE ONE, I hope he realizes how wonderful of a woman you are and take it to the next step. You know my friend that I wish you nothing but the best :hugs:
Sarah, I want to see pictures too!! I need to get a hair makeover, but I am scared to death. I am sure you look beautiful
Ash, yay for a good first day in school!!:dance:
Candice, how is your office now??? BTW I love the pictures in your blog!! Chris is just adorable :wub:
lexsmama
08-26-2008, 09:26 AM
Morning!
Bad second day.. :laugh: Bad second day, though. Cried like you wouldn't believe. Dh cried, too.
I smell like wet diaper. I wonder if dh set one on my clothes...
I need to update my blog.
CandiceLeigh
08-26-2008, 09:54 AM
Hey guys! The AC is back to normal, thank goodness! I was so uncomfortable yesterday. :wtf: Apparently the building owner said the electricity bill is too high, so they shut off the AC over the weekend. Hello! That doesn't help any because then the AC had to run super hard all day Monday to try to cool the building. Hopefully they don't do that again this weekend.
Lynn, sorry about that. I know how you feel. DH always wants to spank Chris instead of trying to talk first. Drives me crazy! If you swat him and don't tell him what he even did, how is he going to learn a lesson? I'd rather do timeout and tell him why he's going there.
Pam, :hi: How have you and Morgan been lately?
Sarah, I want to see your new hair!!
I wrote Tracy on Facebook yesterday, but I haven't been on there today so I don't know if she responded or not. I'm pretty sure she's working though. :shock:
Claudia, thanks! I actually need to update my blog again. I'm like a week behind.
Ashley, sorry about all the tears. It'll get easier! :hugs:

Claudia, I guess he is fine I didn't talk to him last night because he and Austin had a fire meeting. I am going to try to catch him tonight if I have time. That brings me to.......
Discouragement... how do you girls deal with it? I let it eat away at me until I feel I am worthless. I do this with weightloss and with Mike. Sigh

I am discouraged because I started walking on the treadmill last night and only made it 20 minutes! then I woke up this morning and guess what???? I am still fat LOL It didn't melt off over night.
then I am and get discouraged over Mike. Though we have made some slow progress... it really is going so slow. I know if he is ment to be the one he will be but heck I'll never know if he is or not if we don't spend a little more time together without our kids. LOL

I am with you Tracy, I can draw simple shapes... my kids probably make better drawings than I do :lol:
Pam.... not sure what to say to you about discouragement.... it all depends on the situation.... with some things, I honestly just give up... specially when they are out of my power... I am also a doer & controler, so it is hard to let go/give up, but I get more frustrated thinking that I cannot control the situation
Anyways, I am bad at giving advise about men, because I did a lot of stupid things... the only time it worked was not making any effort with DH.... I was not interested in a relationship!
For diets, yes it is frustrating to see yourself fat and then try for a week and see no results.... your mind KNOWS that it takes a little more than that, but still you are heartbroken, so you think why bother???.... what about finding a picture of you when you were skinnier, and get into the "I have been there, I can do it again" mentality???

Candice, whenever I want to self sabotage, I think to myself, will I regret it later? And usually it helps me to not do it. Also, when it comes to working out, even if I don't 'want' to, if I am in debate about it, I just go out and do it, knowing I'll never be mad at myself for actually doing it, but I may be mad vice versa.
Any stressers right now causing you to do it?

There has been SO many times where I "don't want to run" and I go back and forth forever about it. "SOMETIMES" I still don't go, but it is rare no.
There is nothing to debate if you just do it....;)

That's good advice Tracy, thanks! I'm really not stressed about anything that I can think of. Maybe $$. Chris was supposed to have tube/adenoid surgery this Friday but I had to push it back again because I just don't have the funds. Makes me feel like a bad mom. :(
You AREN'T a bad mom.
You are making decisions and doing the best you can for him. That isn't bad at all. :)

Good Morning!
Ashley, I will pray for your DH's Grandma. So sorry that he couldn't go visit her.
Sarah, WTG!!! I wish more people around here would B/F but they think we are all hippys and strange for baby wearing and b/feeding here. :( Oh, well... I do it any way. :)
Lynn, any thing new in your world? Any big weekend plans?
Guess what girls! I walked for 40 minutes last night at a 5% incline I went 1.3 miles! I am so proud of myself!!! I also woke up early this morning and had a good heatly breakfast to start the day! Whole Wheat tost with a tinny bit of Peanut butter and some Light Activia.

Yay for Dani in big girl panties!
Sarah - HAPPY BIRTHDAY my dear!
Pam - Hope the Activia works for you! Great job on the walking.
No big plans for our weekend. DH's Dad and step-mom are coming to town to see SIL's new baby and they insist that we meet them over there and go to lunch. That's always nice.
So gt this .....I mention Gymboree to DH because Katelyn LOVES the playground and we live in a townhouse with no back yard so I figure Gymboree would have stuff she can climb and play on and be active. So he goes , "Um, you've mentioned Gymboree a few times, but I gotta tell you that unless its free, I don't think we should take her since we have a big financial year ahead of us." I mean OMG! It can't be more than $60 right? tightwad! So I said then I am taking her to the park every weekend!

We just got a campus upgrade. The student center's nice AND healthy now! The cafeteria has amazing salads, soups, sandwiches, and they don't fry anymore. The cafes up front have chinese, home cooking, and a cafe that has baked goods and fresh things. Expensive up front, but faculty/staff get a discount.
$5 in teh cafeteria, anything you could want.

Hey everyone!
Ugh, I hate calling dr's offices! DH called MONDAY to push Chris' surgery back and they told him they would call either him or me back with a new date. They never called and today I get a call from the surgicenter giving me info about the procedure I'm having tomorrow. :eyebrow: Umm, that was supposed to have been canceled! So I called the dr's office just now and the freaking lady is at lunch so we had to leave another message. I told the front office I just want to make sure that it gets pushed back so they don't mark us as a no show, when we've been calling. So annoying! :headbang:
