Thursday Trials and Triumphs

[Nancy]

I'm up s2s is done &
breakfast is done.
I've rinsed and loaded the dishes.
The coffee is brewing sounds like it's done now.
My bs was great today yea for that!
Sent off a couple of e-mail's today.
Dgd had a melt down but having some lunch seemed to help she's better now.
Love reading about your trip K in C are you going to an animal reserve?

I am on page 37 of my flowchart. This is for one script. There are other scripts to do, one of which is of equal complexity! At least I am not bored!!!

DH home from breakfast and we have worked outside. Now I am going to cheesecake and coffee at the AC. BBL to tell you all we did.

Okay, I will check into C raigslist. Thank you for the suggestion.

Dd2 met the 2 boys and their dad at conferences. The boys came home with her. She brought pizza and invited me to lunch. I left at 12:38, feeling so guilty. She wanted to take a shower and let her hair dry while she ironed everyones clothes. The 2 little ones needed baths also. I felt so guilty as I drove off knowing she 2 hours to do all that. I kept thinking that I should have stayed and ironed.

I need to run errands after I make some phone calls.

On the news some folks are up in arms about a child's turkey sandwich lunch but the mom did not put in veggies as far as I can tell. Interesting things that make the news!

Apparently there is civil unrest as Senegal moves towards elections on Feb. 26th. As we are to be in port on Feb 25th, the cruise line has opted to change our ports. We'll now be going to Gambia instead on that day.

So, should you happen to hear anything, don't worry, we are not going to Senegal.

We were gone most of the day -dh walked then we went to his DB's. Stayed there until about 2:20, left to get gas and pick up gd at school. From there it has all been downhill (BIG TIME!) Think dh was about ready to throttle gd. Can't imagine once her mom (DD) gets home! I'm sure she'll have a tale full of 'excuses' for her mom.

I've done the dishes and now retreated to our room. Chicken is thawing for dinner, though I have no idea what dd has in mind.

Think I'll try reading a little to see if I can start relax. I'm sure dh's blood pressure is sky high and I'm worried about him getting this upset (not that I wasn't). Can't even talk with dsisil about any of this since her take is that gd is just being a 'kid'. WRONG! It's way beyond that! DD would love to send her to a 'boot camp' if they could afford it. That's truly what she needs.

Had trouble getting on the 'net' again this afternoon. I can hardly wait to have my internet back home! Of course I could do some on my Iphone but that's a tad difficult. But at least I could let you know now that all is well with me.

K in C thanks for that update about the change in ports!
Dee glad you can post at least part of the time.

I have most of the ex. done.
Dishwasher is finished and cooling so I can put them away in a bit.
Not a lot going on here today.
Have a letter nearly done for my mom today.
dishes are unloaded
Just found out I'll have more granny duty this evening with dgson here as well.

I was happy today to catch most of the knit & crochet now show on PBS today learned that I've been doing one stitch too few on my cable for ties & decor on hats it's always good to learn some thing if I'm going to watch 'em.

[Indiana]

I haven't caught up. I was told I have to get rid of
Jake.

[DeeClutter]

Oh no, Indiana. I know he is such a part of you!
