Michelle...
Get thee to a doctor! Ethan had pink eye last week and it didn't look bad the first day. But I told his mom he needed to have it looked at. Sure enough it was pink eye and they had to treat both eyes. But it was much better in a day or two. You don't want to be all pink and puffy for the trip!!

Ethan is here and he's playing with my keyboard so there's "music" in the air!

Pam..yup... we "relaxed" in the hot tub last night. la la la la la la How many more days of school for you???? Kindergarten Round Up here is the 27th and 28 and our end of the year breakfast is the 6th of June. Can't wait to go back and see all my colleagues. They haven't seen me since early last June. Gotta go strut my stuff!!

Morning Gals
I have so much to do today I'm freaking out. I just got up, worked all weekend, (my last sunday night), going to shower and drop ds off at the sitter. Have to go to sprint to have them program my phone so I can actually use all of it.
Have a 12:appt then would like to tan, have to be to work at 2, then pick up ds on my way home. Pack everything except for my jeans that I have to wear to work, 5:30 guy is coming to til my back yard so I have to dig up 2 hasta before he gets here and need to be in bed by 8 so I can get up at 4am to get to work.

We did have a nice mothers day, had a bbq with a few neighbors, everything was good, i could hardly eat but what I did eat was good.

Kat, what a mess...Kind of do feel bad for Rick... how do you deal with that????

Terry - glad you had a nice day with mom. Kids... well, I missed sending my mom an actual card 1 year but called and sent a gift. I will never do that again. LOL
my dd (13) got me with her allowance stain and brushes and is going to restain my front porch this weekend while I'm gone. Isn't that so nice. It has not been done in a few years and needs it, and i put my hammocks up and my landscaping lights so it will be so nice to be finished.

Michelle, don't get sick now girlfriend!!!!! LOL

TracyK.. where are you? You usually post first thing each morning!! Did I miss something?

Jennifur · 05-12-2008, 08:42 AM

I think I read yest that TracyK went away with the family last night.

Haydee · 05-12-2008, 08:52 AM

Yep, she want to le buerge du lac (sp?). New casino in Lousiana. Can't wait for her reviews! Me and my aunts have been wanting to go since it opened. How was everyones weekend? I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day. And Pammy I hope you weren't too sad yesterday. I know it's hard for you. (((hugs)))

My weekend was busy and it flew by, as always is the case. Time just is flying for me. I can't believe we're already in May. Friday I baked 4 dozen cookies for some gift baskets for friends that are moms. Saturday we hit the mall early for some sales they were having. Me and my sister found lots of good deals. Then we went to the cemetary to leave flowers for my grandmother and we spent some time there. I know that she's not actually "there" but it does give me comfort to go and clean up her gravestone and to just spend some time there. Then Saturday evening we spent a few hours putting together the baskets for our aunts. They looked really beautiful and they really loved them.

Then Sunday was just crazy, trying to get everything cooked in the morning, church, and get over to my aunts on time. Me and Juan got into a huge fight. He really can't seem to ever be on time. For anything. And this drives me BATTY. He said he was going to do yardwork while I cooked. He asked me THREE times what time we were leaving the house. He went to go do my sisters lawn, his mom's lawn and then he was going to do our lawn. By the time he came around to our house it was already time to go. But of course, he said he wanted to finish and would I wait for him. I waited 45 min and finally just left in a huff. Why o' why do I let him get to me?

Haydee~ this made me laugh. You will never change him or his "timing"...ever. So, you gotta figure out ways to trick him. If you need to leave @ 11...tell him 10! Susanne is always on me about being messy. The other day she comes out of the garage and kitchen and said, "Damn, you can tell everywhere you've been...why don't you shut a drawer or cabinet?" To which I replied..."I'll never be as neat as you want me to be...so you can either live with it, or not. I doubt I'll change this late in life." We laughed about it...but I know it drives her BATTY too! Tardiness, messiness, whateverness...but you still gotta love us!

No one has called me!!!

Does that mean no one has my number or I'm not worthy to check?!

Another set of human remains have been found, a couple miles from the first set. Startin' to get a little creepy since it is near my house. Making sure to lock my doors at night lately.

janiebug · 05-12-2008, 09:59 AM

Laura, we violets are waiting for the perfect time to call you!!!

FairyFacade · 05-12-2008, 10:31 AM

Took that yesterday, I got a thrill out of the fact I look skinnier than my husband (in face pics only but I take what I can get!!)

TracyinKS · 05-12-2008, 10:31 AM

Good morning! Had a great Mothers Day weekend........ I planted Saturday and then we had a bbq Sunday over at my sisters.....

My bil marinated Carne Asada Meat for two weeks and grilled it! My mom made my sister and I her SPECIAL pork buritos... for us to take home. (its one of those things from my youth) I ate one and pd'd it for two hours............. so I'm TRYING to eat on SLOWLY like a little mouse right now........ so far I've gotten 1/4 of it to go down without a pb....... here are a couple pics from yesterday....

My sis, my mom, nieces, and Robby

TerriDoodle · 05-12-2008, 10:47 AM

What beautiful pictures, Tracy!! Those are keepers for sure! Robby looks like a maniac. (I love, love, LOVE little boys!!) (NO!! Not that way!!)

Haydee - We've been to LaBerge DuLac (or however its spelled)... we went for the day but couldn't afford the $500/night they wanted for a freakin' room! $500/night in LAKE CHARLES?? We just laughed at them! I could fly to Vegas and stay at the Wynn for that! LOL Anyway...the pool is fantastic, golf course is very nice but the casino is crowded and expensive! High stakes blackjack and the slots are tight as hell. We left there and went to go dance at a zydeco club and had sooooooooo much fun!! Much more fun than than the casino!!

TracyinKS · 05-12-2008, 11:21 AM

He IS a maniac! and that hair......... he did it himself! He is SOOOOO funny... he wears out his grandparents because he is go go go go collapse get up and go go go some more!

NSV: yesterday he and I played basketball.. I was teaching him how to shoot.....

Later when Charles started talking about how spouses of bandsters needed their own support group.. I got defensive and said..... I don't see how it should affect you... I always find something to eat when at a restraunt while you order whatever you want.. and its just that I not longer live to eat.... and I'm sorry but giving up a piece of garlic bread is definately worth being able to get up and play basket ball with my son!

Also... Laura or Tracy.. did you guys make it to phase two?

Haydee · 05-12-2008, 11:24 AM

well if the slots are tight then heck no we won't be going! we like 'em lose!
