Goodmorning Friends!!!!!!! 
It's a cold day here in IL....I HATE IL!!!! lol  So I didnt get as much classwork done last night as I had wanted...I was working on one that spoken it was only 8.5 mins but it took me for fricken EVER to finish it........UGGG this is neve gonna be over

Not much is happening today.  Just classwork, takin Kelsay to school, and my Mom and Alex are coming over to see the doggie after school.  Nothing exciting ever happens....So the superintendent never called me back Friday...so I'll have to call and bug him today..They are gonna want to get Kelsay on a bus just to shut me up....Shannon - it's 62 degrees and climbing up here in the northern 'burbs.  Definitely not cold!

Good morning Shannon, Karen and Jaz.

Jaz...does your husband panic?  That seems like a lot of meds. 

Shannon....it is raining and about 38 here in Cheyenne.  I am so happy! 

Karen these young whipper-snappers, I guess ya got ta be up before the chickens.

Nope - he doesn't panic; he just hates going to the dentist and prefers to be knocked out.  I had the same thing when I had my wisdom teeth removed.  He's monitored the entire time by a nurse.

Yep! I understand!  My daughter was knocked out for her wisdom teeth the year.  It was sad.  I am glad his dentist will work with him. 

Got to take Brandon to school, and I got to go to the doc.  I am pretty sure I have a sinus infection.  Talk to you ladies later.

Hi there everyone.its mid afternoon here and a very dull and grey one, its also turning chilly. Just drinking coffee and munching custard cream cookies( yum). I am on my last lot of antibiotic for a tooth abcess and have to go get root canal. [QUOTE=Shelly41]

This dentist specializes in babies (the adult kind

It's a bit chilly here too.  Yesterday when I woke up it was 55 in the house.  Fall comes quickly in New England.  I love the cool, crisp weather though so I'm very excited.  And the leaves changing will be an awesome sight too when that finally happens. 

I am enjoying my first cup of coffee and Isabel is swiffering my living room rug.  My little maid!  LOL  Of course, there's no swiffer pad on it.  When I get the carpet taken up, then I'll let her go to town on the hardwoods. 

We making a trip out to the supermarket later and I also want to go back to the toy store and see if I can find some of those door knob locks that fit over the knobs themselves. 

Hope everyone has a good day.

Steph, it's a shame they don't still like helping you clean once they get old enough to be proficient at it!!  I remember the days when Brenna loved to help me.  Then she went through a short phase where she liked to surprize me by cleaning the whole house wile I was out.  I liked that.  Alot.  Now she manages to leave a mess behind wherever she goes and acts like I'm really inconveniencing her when I tell her to pick up.  15.  It's such a "cute" age.  Not.

Saw my RD this morning. SInce I've had 3 flares in the last 2 months he thinks I should start injectable MTX because I already take 20 mg by mouth per week.  I super don't want to do that, so he said I can try taking an extra pill and see what happens, but if these next two months go the same as the last, then I guess I'll join the ranks of you MTX shot people.  Or he said I could try adding Arava to the mix, but I want to avoid taking more drugs if possible.  But here's the really good news....his nurse thinks I look like Michelle Pfifer.

 

                          Good Morning Friends!

I see I'm the late one as usual

It's sooo beautiful and cool here this morning, fall is definetly in the air! Yeah

Hope everyone has a great day today, and I hope all this dentist stuff isn't an epidemic!

Link I can so sympathize with ya, I get mistaken for Cameron Diaz all the time

Hope all the dr appts. go well today, good luck Shelly and Karen and all you dentist goers too!

 

LoL Jas, your kids got your crazy sense of humor I see

Link where are you coming too in N.C.? It will probably still be warm up in the day.

Jas, these stories are making me laugh so much, your son reminds me of Alex when he was little.  Do you keep a journal?  I wish I would have, I always wonder how many wonderful things I've forgotten.

 

Oh and the only thing I have in common with Cameron Diaz is her silly gigglePenis alert - the older one was so skinny that his manhood would fall out of his briefs when he was just starting to wear underwear.  This generated a Penis Alert.  Cute, unless it happened when we were out in public

 

Link

aww it's ok to cry I would

fowie - flower

mote- milk

mamas & mampas - grandma and grandpa

walkie walkie OK - lets go for a walk

farties - smarties

Yeah Mo, I'm not really caring about the scenery.  as long as my son and his wife are part of it, it's gonna look beautiful to me.

 Are you hurting Pammy? You can't do that right now! Your going on vacation! Do something!

Pammy~  you will not flare, you will not flare , you will not flare, you will not flare..........

I have to go to work now.  See y'all later.  I'm gonna remember my kids cute words and tell them to ya later.  Unless it's just too far gone to go back to.  Which will probably be the case, as it'll be 5 before I'm on again.  Most likely.  Have the absolute best day of your lives todayOh and Sam was called "Sammy Pajamy" at daycare when he was a baby, because until he started walking, we always sent him to school in a "babysuit".  It was comfy, and he was a fussy little guy.  Besides, who wouldn't want to wear a "babysuit" if you're just laying around, sleeping and playing all day long?  The girls at daycare would fight over who got to cuddle with Sammy Pajamy.  One of the girls even moved up with the boys - she followed them from the baby room all the way to the big kids room.  The boys were crying with her on their last day at daycare.

OMG the Penis alert cracked me up!!!!!!!!! 

Does it say therapist on my forehead??? WHy is it that everyone come an asks for advice when im in the middle of something? Of course I stop and help but its funny...nothing EVER happens when im not doing classwork I don't know if everyone has a Menard's store near them - it's a home improvement store.  Anyway, they have this commercial with a jingle that goes "Save big money with Menard's".  Well, when the boys were little, they used to always jump all over my husband.  Inevitably, they'd accidentally jump on the "family jewels".  So the husband would sing "Don't hit Daddy in the NARDs" to the tune of the Menard's jingle.

When Merryn was little she would get up early early some mornings and we would just turn on the TV.  This was in the days before 24 hr TV.  She would ask to watch either the rerun of the Carlton Walsh Report (a current affairs show) which she called Car Wash, or the station lines with music playing which she Test Pattern Music.

It kind of disturbs me that her first words, when she was about 15 months, were "mina mini",  I must have said "in a minute" too often.

Oh Jaz...you crack me up.  I've got a few of those memories too.  Brandon has always been funny, and he doesn't try to be...he just is. 

I am back fromt he doc....yep....hubby was right....sinus infection.  Gosh...I HATE when he is right.  I guess after 20 yrs he knows me.  So, now I have to call RD and see if I can still have infusion on Wed. 

Oh and I am supposed to sub from 7:30-2:30 tomorrow.  I will ask honey for an excuse.  I hope I get one...J/k

Well all, I've got to go take a shower and then go retrieve 180 pounds of crab-ass from the dentist.

I'm back from my yearly physical and I think I just might live!!!  My doctor was very happy with my weight loss, and my BP was down too.  Now if I get a good report card on my bloodwork I will pass for the year!!!

Oh, and the doctor told me to keep on doing what I'm doing.  So that means I have been ordered by my doctor to continue being a Pain in the Ass!  Sorry guys, it's just the way it is, the doctor said so. . .

 

And since when do you follow orders....hmmm...Karen???

Jaz...the doc was so proud that I have been doing the neti pot!  Yes, I feel like I am on the high seas...my tummy sloshes and I can't sleep, 'cause I'm drinking a whole lot more. 

 

WOOOHOO I got a package in the mail!!!!! Wow am I easily please eh?  So I LOVE doing surveys and so like Wednesday or Thursday I redeemed some of the points I had earned for one of those little portable traveldrive thingys that you put in your USB port and you can save files on that instead of on your computer well I got it in the mail today!! YAY lol Seriously you could send me a sticker in the mail and Id be excited to get something in the mail other then bills Well I got Mr. Crabby Pants home about an hour ago.  He's belligerent as usual when he comes home all drugged up.

Seems like everyone's day is going okay.  I'm off to sit with my 2nd cup of coffee.

Have a good day all.

the child safety things that go on the cabinet doors in like the kitchen etc...Well at my dads house the previous owner did it backwards. We could open em but couldnt get em closed w/o pressing the thing down...

Well yesterday I spent over and hour and a half on the phone with her.  I was a good girl!  

 

OMG Karen...we've got TONS of grandmaisms LOL Old people sure do say funny things My oldest one would get very upset if the doorknob "baby locks" were not on the doorknobs.

DUDE! We bought one of those child safety locks for the fridge as son kept opening up the fridge and he stole the new pack of cheese and ruined it because he could not open it, so he threw it under his bed. Then the next day... he pour a while pitcher full of cherry kool-aid in the floor and left the fridge door wide open for about 15 mins before we opened the kitchen door to get something outta the kitchen.

I was awful. Anyways... as I was saying... so we bought one of those locks and well, within 2 days son figured out how to open the lock. Yes, it was a waste of . I told hubby we could go and buy 3 more and put them all down the fridge door and by the time he gets a couple of them done someone will have noticed he was not around.

Son's room it right thru the kitchen, so it is kinda misleading to think he went to his room, when he is actually in the kitchen getting something outta the fridge. And it is even more misleading when hubby keeps closing the kitchen door so he can turn the A/C on, because you are not sure who closed the door and why. That is how son got away with pouring the kool-aid and leaving the fridge door open for a few mins.

I am feeling much better today. Not much swelling and my knee is much better. I sure did not want to wake up and get outta the bed. That is what them meds do to me. That is why I do not like taking them. I already had a hard enough time waking up and staying awake.

[QUOTE=Hillhoney]

Okay, remember a while back we had a thread about the funny things older people say?  I mentioned then that we jokingly say my mom has "Grannyisms", and I am always trying to remember the good ones. 

Well yesterday I spent over and hour and a half on the phone with her.  I was a good girl!  

 

[/QUOTE]

The poor thing.  Perhaps she should see my grandmother's physician.  Grandma had termites in her heart

 

I am so happy for you Shannon!

YAY SHANNON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Oh my GOD I laughed so much at this thread!! You guys are hysterical!


I'm sitting here eating a sammich and munching on some more scuppernongs. YUMMY! I'm off again today and I slept in LATE LATE LATE. Then I hit up Publix for some groceries and now my plan is to veg out all afternoon. :)

Oh, and I FEEL GREAT AGAIN TODAY!! WOOHOOO!!!


Pammy, I am sending you a box of great. Okay? I'm sharing!! LOL You will not flare you will not flare you will not flare.....

Shannon,

That's awesome!  So glad that worked out for you.  Well, my enthusiasm over the safety door knobs has been shattered.  After about 3 hours of them being on, Isabel has figured them out.  Ugh!  I still however, am having a hard time with them.  LOL  So much for child proof.  Oughta say parent proof instead.Kelsay is SOO excited about riding the bus too Yeah Shannon! Better make sure Kelsay gets to bed on time, so she gets up easy. No staying up till 1am for her anymore! I bet she's excited though, isn't she? It tickles me that she loves school so much. She's such a smart cookie, just like her momma! When's her first day of riding the bus?

Hello everyone. Good news shannon about the bus, that must be a relief.

Pammy- I hope you feel better real soon.

I am off to bed as its 11.41 pm here. I dont even know why I am still up and about, I was heading to bed about 2 hours ago but for some reason I never got there....how time flies

OMG picture this....we went cross the street to get me some pop and Kelsay was wearing a purple tie-die shirt, jean capris, and brown cowGIRL boots....lol she looked like she just got off the boat...

Shannon, at least the girl can dress herself!! Remember the days of fighting to put the shirt and pants on??? BE THANKFUL! LOL Katie there thankfullness for her being able to dress herself and embarassment when she picks out her own clothes....this girl has NO sense of matching at ALLLOL They never do at that age. But that's what makes it fun!!! You could make it easier on your embarrassment, and buy all her clothes in the same color. That way everything she wears matches....  [QUOTE=kelsaysmommy]Katie there thankfullness for her being able to dress herself and embarassment when she picks out her own clothes....this girl has NO sense of matching at ALL[/QUOTE]

My youngest went to church on Sunday in his dress pants that go with his first communion suit, orange crocs, and a sleeveless sweatshirt.  Glad I wasn't with them!!!  I went on Saturday night Hey! I just noticed that my Scuppernongs come from "Shannon Vineyards"


THANKS SHAN! Hey you are most welcome!!!  Its what I do in my spare time from slaying ants. 

 

Yeah!  I got my antibionic(that's what Brandon calls them, thanks hubby!) I didn't think it would be done today, 'cause insurance computer was "down".  Yes,  Hopefully I will live through this infestation via Katie.  LOL!!!!

WEll, the bad news is...I will miss my second Remicade infusion....pissed about that one!  I am in pain...so I guess I will have to ask for pain pills early.  Rx usually lasts all month(30), well I am already is so much pain I could scream. 

I guess it will all come out in the wash. 

Funny video...I love spoofs.  Wierd Al is probably my favorite...White and Nerdy...is so funny!

I love that one especially because the Gray Kid is a real artist, and a GREAT one. Him spoofing Timberlake is hysterical! Thanks for all your feel better wishes.  And Katie thanks for sending me some feel good Night Shannon!!!

GOOD EVENING, MOANA I MISSED PART OF THE CONVERSATION

LAST NIGHT WHO IS BRISEN'S SOON TO BE DIL I FORGOT LOL.

HOPE EVERYONE HAS A NICE EVENING.

OHHHHHH...I thought it was just sweetened peanut butter.

 I'm a man on a mission when I eat candy!

What is nutella? Never heard of it

http://www.nutellausa.com/ arriscolwell39342.8742013889Hi darrel! I'm brisen, but I don't have, nor do I want a DIL! That was just Mona's sick sense of humor!

  

Brisen was til you mentioned DIL

Ya makin' me work by cuttin' and pastin'!

Glad to see everyone checking in!

Oops! I fixed it!!!!

IT WAS FUNNY LISTENING TO YOU TWO LAST NIGHT

WELL I WILL LEAVE YOU LADIES ALONE SO YOU CAN

KEEP TALKING ABOUT CHOCOLATE.

 OH SHOOT! She beat me on the post. She's quick draw mcgraw

 

 Your welcome to hang out with us if you dare!

Darrel - Don't leave just cuz we're talking about chocolate!

CHOCOLATE  - IT'S WHAT'S FOR DINNER!CHOCOLATE SPAM! IT'S WHAT'S FOR DINNER! So Katie - When one makes a Nutella sandwich, is it just the bread and the chocolate spread, or do you put jelly or something else? Or do most people just eat it by the spoonful??? 

 

Can't spell for beans tonight! 

Brisen39342.8802546296

HAVE ANY OF YOU EVER HAD THE CHANCE TO GO INTO THE

HERSHEY'S CHOCOLATE STORE IN NIAGRA FALLS CANADA. OR

THE M&M STORE IN LAS VEGAS BOY THAT'S A LOT OF CHOCOLATE

IN THOSE STORE'S MY WIFE AND KID'S LOVED THOSE PLACES.

The only chocolate store I've been in is Ghiradelli Square in San Francisco. Man, you leave that store with your clothes smelling like chocolate!

I went in a chocolate store at the mall where they have all different types of chocolate in a glass case, and the lady was standing behind, and she asked what I wanted today.

 

I said, "I'll have the buffet!"

I eat it by the spoon full. Or I make a sammich with nutella and current jelly. Mmm Mmmm good! Or you can slather it on a slice of bread and eat it like that. Pretzels dipped in it are great, and it's awesome on fruit, too!

   Hello, My name is Mona and I'm a Chocaholic....

 

Nope! It just says in the cubbard! It's GREAT sh*t! 

A BUFFET OF CHOCOLATE THAT'S FUNNY

SOUNDS LIKE MY WIFE.

But it seems kinda weird that it doesn't need to be refrigerated I promise it stays just fine! If you read the FAQs on the site, it even tells you to just leave it in the cubbard! I'm really not that much of a chocolate person, but the nutella sounds good with the hazel nut! I like my chocolate disguised as something else.

 LIke what Brisen...Coffee?Lettuce.As a matter of fact, I LOVE chocolate covered coffee beans! Lettuce????? That's disgusting!!!

Karen's new nickname is 'johnnie on the spot'

Alrighty then!  

 Katie who the heck but you would smell neosporin??

G-Spot Karen OMG Mona! I DO smell everything! Christine and Jess make fun of me at work, because I always smell new office supplies.....hahahaha

Poor Darrell, we have just gone too far now!

Sorry Darrell - I started it.

 

So is that the plastic surgery you are saving for Gale?  You could probably just get an arrow tattoo a lot cheaper!

 

eewww you know what picture is in my mind??? I'd say it but i can't spell it

LEARNING PLASTIC SURGERY MAKING THE G-SPOT BIGGER

MEANS MY WIFE MAY ACTUALLY HAVE SHOT AT ORGASM HA!

 

 I can't breath here

we could make that the remote control for the TV.  We would love it when he went channel surfing!

 

I'll keep mine just like it is thank you very much, unless you go first Karen and can tell us how wonderful it is

 

 My hubby is inspector gadget

I'm sorry Katie.  I will behave myself now.

LOL No no, it's quite alright. It's entertaining!

 

.......ad lib ido...ain't that the point?

Karen knows a lot about a lot! Sometimes I think she knows TOO much!

   OK Karen since you're on a roll again tonight TELL US A STORY!! PLEASE!!!!

 Brisen keep up! That was me!

   OK, YOU SAiD AD LIB, I SAID AD... LIB... IDO....YOU BLAMED KAREN

 

 Somebody throw Brisen a pork chop...quick!

Well just slap me upside the head!

I'm just not used to you being that quick Mo!  LOL Valley Girl really likes to mix her people up!!! 

ZING!

 

 Brisen it's really bad when I'm quicker than you

GOTTA GET MY SON UP IN ABOUT 5 1/2 HOURS FOR SCHOOL

HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY YOUR NIGHT.

 

 

 

Goodnight DarrelLOVE YOU ANYWAY!!!

 

  Yae yea yea valley girl this was twice

 

 

 ppppfffftttt Katie! We are barely one taskers and definetely not multi taskers

  LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE... BRISEN!

So Karen's ass is three times the size of mine?  Some are built for comfort, some are built for speed.  Others are built as airbags........... And some are just 'built'...like mine! 

Don't worry about it Mona, I am just more highly evolved.

Karen is on her way to Florida to beat my ass...... 

 

 And some are made for pinching

dh calls me "miss nice ass" Naw, let's just shorten it to fatass! Or we can just smile knowing there's now a double meaning to "Fatback" 

Way to go Gale!

 

She shoots, she scores!!!!!   GGGGOOOAAAALLLLL!!!

Either way works for me...as long as we know the 'code'.

At least call me nice fat ass

 ahhh thanks Brisen

 Oh gosh my side is killing me from laughing sooo hard!

Aw man, I'm hungry again!! 

I guess I agree?  . . .  Can't say I have really checked out her ass!

 

LOL Today my doctor told me I have nice looking eardrums!!!  I said "Thanks, I work out".  I thought he was going to loose it!

All right guys, it's been a blast, but I need to get to bed. Tomorrow I have to sit in an 8 hour computer class at the hospital and if I don't get enough sleep tonight, I'll be snoring in the class tomorrow.

Have a good night everyone! Same time tomorrow!  OMG Karen you're a trip! Did you guys just see the quickbitch thread?? We certainly getting spamed a lot these days!

Night Gale - go eat a cheesburger or something.  That will help! 

Have a good night!

That's what happens on un-moderated boards. It's gotten more frequent lately. But you know I saw them changing some of the forum titles. So SOMEONE is freaking logging in and doing stuff. It would be nice if they payed attention to us!

 

Goodnight Brisen!

Night everyone and KatydidAw so it's just me and hairy toed girl? :( Nite Fat Ass!The hairy toed sloth! I have no desire to go to bed.......even though I'm sure I could use it. Bleh!

 

   You butt heads!!

I'm so glad you are feeling good.  Now go get some sleep to keep it that way!

I'll talk to ya tomorrow.

Yes mommy. LOL
