I've been in motion today!
Errands -- post office, bank, gift shop for small item to "finish out" dmom's gift, dollar store (2 of them!) searching for stocking stuffers.
Came home, cooked supper (hamburgers, corn on the cob, fruit).
Kept dgrands a couple hours.
Washed 3 loads of clothes and hung to dry.
Washed and put away supper dishes.
Downloaded another month's worth pictures.
Talked to dbil on phone a couple of times -- relaying messages re: basketball he, dh, ds,
* and dgs * are going to Saturday.
-- -- NO... I am NOT going! Dbil wanted to know if I was SURE I didn't mind not going. Oh. My. Goodness. If he only knew. I may actually have all of Saturday evening to myself... Heaven...(((Dee's dd))) -- yes... I remember days like that.
And (((Dee's ds and his fellow firefighters, EMTs, everyone involved))) and of course (((the homeowners))).
Also for your dbil...
Dee's hitting the hay, and I am just now finally having time to check in with all of you!
WTG, Kathryn, with decorating! Isn't it fun to decorate with a little one? I admit, I did redistribute where dgs had 10 ornaments bunched together on one branch -- and I am not allowing dgd to help yet.
She may be missing out on some of the stuff dgs did with me at her age, but when dgs was 2, there was no one else to juggle. I just can't keep up with both of them for stuff like that.
I am also impressed with his signing ability! If dgd isn't going to talk, it might be nice if she would sign, right?
OTOH, she does seem to get her message across most of the time.
Tonight I believe she said "light" while looking at the tree w/me, and I know she said "bye-bye" when she left. She also says "stop" when we read the book where Goofy says "Stop! Stop" over and over.
It will come. Before I know it, I imagine I'll have two of them talking to me constantly.
Hope the storm doesn't cause too much trouble, Kathryn.
LadyM, I so hope this doctor can help ds. I would certainly agree w/you that you don't want to over-medicate and have drug side effects to deal with!
I'm with you on the "don't give up" thing too... Trying to stay in the calorie range My Fitness Pal allows for me... trying to remember to record what I eat and not get discouraged with that... trying to make exercise a habit... SOOOO many things I truly want to do BETTER... As you said, I must remember: Just don't give up. Try again.
Good luck to Twins' ds!
(((blessed & dh)))
Nancy -- I want to watch The Crown. Unfortunately, I can only watch Netflicks in the bedroom, and it seems dh and I always want that tv at the same time!
I have stuff on the DVR I haven't watched yet, plus stuff on Netflicks that I'd like to watch, and I don't think I'll ever get around to it all. I also need to transfer stuff from DVR * and from VHS tapes * to DVD's. * sheesh * Another forever unfinished project...
Elizabeth -- no need to apologize re: "rant" on X-BFF. She is behaving ridiculously, and disrespectfully towards you and your parents. I'm glad your ddad saw it for what it is. Maybe something will happen that she will change her plans and y'all just want have to be bothered with her during Mardi Gras.
Waving to ... Harriet... Harmony... Lilac... helia... AND EVERYONE ELSE -- ESPECIALLY The Most Important Person whom I'm sure I neglected!
