Wednesday What's New?

Hello Margo and OFF friends,

It's been a very rainy/chilly week.  All this nasty weather is making me feel blah.  I'm hoping for some sunshine today.  Other than that, not too much happening around here.

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy day with LOTS of sunshine - lol

I had a fun filled evening with the M&M's.

Bath time - I was as wet as the kids. They thought it was giggley to coat Grandma with bubbles.

Bedtime - sure we all went to bed but no sleeping allowed. Melanie asked if she could keep one of my bones. (Her nursery school class recently studied bones.) Matthew needed his book time. I can now recite "Monkey in the Tree" verbatum. 

It was difficult to settle down and sleep. My night was restless and so were the cats. Around 2ish, we had a ferocious cat fight. Jimmy had Annie pinned under my desk and was down right nasty. Not a good way to wake up.

Time to hit the shower and start this day.

Kisses
Annette

Your life has such balance. Bubble baths with M&M and cat fights.

I'm sure I'll have stories to tell tomorrow. Tonight has to be bath night and since Josh won't be home before 6:30pm and they get tired about 6pm. . . it will be Mimi Karen and the C and H sugar twins. They are so slippery and they love to splash and thrash. They took "swimming" lessons a few months ago so have absolutely no fear in 3 inches of water. I think I'll lock the door and strip down to my undies. Not sure how I'll get two slippery little gummy worms dried and dressed. May have to trap everyone in the bathroom and just stay there until it's accomplished. Suggestions?? Erin flies out in about an hour or so. She was excited, anxious. I know she'll miss the daylights out of her little family but it will be so good for her. No responsibilities for 6 whole days! I remember that suffocated feeling. Loved them so much but just desperately needed some alone time too! I'm glad that I'm retired and able to help out.

Karen,
Wear a wet suit, swim fins and goggles.

When the M&M's were smaller, I put a bath towel on the bottom of the tub so it wasn't as slippery. Drying was done in the bathroom, then we went to the bedroom. Their clothes were laid (or is that layed?) out on the bed, the bedroom door kept closed until they were all dressed.

Have fun

Good morning Margo and everyone.....

Margo....this is an awful allergy season...my eyes itch and my nose contantly runs...UGH!!!! Hope you feel better soon.

I had a hard night last night. Kyleigh was on the warpath. The police were called and it was ugly!! Looks like she will be going away for awhile. It breaks my heart. I know my sweet little Kyleigh is in there somewhere. I pray they can help her soon.

Tomorrow is Nic's birthday...I have been so involved with Kyleigh I haven't even mailed his gift out yet. I will today for sure. He knows why it will be late and he understands. It just makes me feel really bad....I don't like sending gifts late to my grandchildren.

I have a very busy work day again today. I guess that is good as it keeps me focused on something else.

Have a nice day everyone. Special prayers to those in need.

Love and hugs to all.....connie d

connie-sending you super hugs...this biz with kyleigh would destroy most of us!!!!!!!!!

Morning to you all! How is my OFF family doing today? It sounds like things are going fairly well with everyone that has talked before I jumped in. Just think all.....today is Wednesday and so it is....HUMP DAY!!!!! Hooray! And just think....I don't even work outside of the home and I feel this way. I am as you all know........a domestic goddess! And you can add on to that one cook, maid,taxi service and everything else that no one can seem to do on their own! Trust me on the fact that it isn't just the one person who lives here with me......it seems to be everyone around!

Bill and I are talking so that is a good plus. It beats what has been going on here......yelling and fighting. He did leave for work at 11:30 yesterday morning because I told him that he needed to get out because he was making me sick. Then I proceeded to go lock myself in the bedroom. Looking back I realize how sad that whole scenario was. I am not pretty when I am so angry. He told me last night that if he didn't have me he wouldn't have anything to live for. Then he said he has his grandbaby but that he would forget. And he said HIS and not ours so that is something that sticks in my head too. I am still at odds with myself over Kayden. My brain and my heart is telling me to stay away and then sometimes my heart tells me to go to him. I am still not sure just what I am going to do. I do know that I have to have self preservation because if I don'****ch out for myself no one else is going to do.

It is getting warm here today. Yesterday was so cold and wet. All it did was rain and it didn't get warmer than 42* and here it is already 52* so it is getting better. I guess tomorrow is suppose to 80* but to be honest I haven'****ched the weather since last week. I can't seem to concentrate.

I have another day of getting grandniece from school and helping with homework and then another meeting at church. I have to find a paper that I need for my meeting and can I find the dang thing?????? No is the answer to that question. I haven't got the faintest idea where it is.

I better get going. I am sending love and hugs to all along with prayers. I hope that today is fantastic for everyone and don't forget to smile and make yourself and others feel so much better. Just turn that frown upside down....I am going to take my own advice on that too!
