dyk I don't know if I'm just old fashioned but I am not down with the kids having the unlimited cell phones
dyk I love the ones that can call 3 numbers - home, 911 and one or two other programmed numbers and that's it -
dyk seriously, they do not need more than that!!!!
dyk this texting business is out of control - the kids are not in touch with the world - the actual hands on face to face build REAL relationship world!!!
dyk Good morning Sheila!!!
dyk it's cold here this morning!!
dyk which is wierd b/c yesterday and the day before it was 80 and we were sweating
dyk I just turned the heater on!!! It's 49 outside and was a chilly 66 in the house -
dyk there are LARGE parts of Texas in an ice/sleet storm right now
dyk but that won't reach us
DYK- Like the insurance "speak" ?
DYK - I've just read all the DYK's since Friday night and my triade from Megan's antics
DYK - Let's just say she was not a happy camper at all last night when she got home from her
DYK the rest of my family drama:
-- my brother (the one who has been through alcohol rehab) went off the wagon and his girlfriend kicked him out, seems like she means it this time, so my dad had to pick him up on New Years Day night and he was bombed
-- my little sister has a quasi-boyfriend with a bad reputation
-- my other brother is getting discharged from the marines
-- my mom was totally ticked off over what happened at our Thanksgiving visit still, but never told me and was giving me the cold shoulder and I couldn't figure out why and then she "let me know"?
-- George felt the need to put one of my parent's friends "in their place"
DYK- We had really icy roads here today
DYK- My normal 20 minute commute to work, took me 80 minutes - Yup over an hour!
DYK I think I"m going to call and see if chi-guy has any openings this morning.
dyk aw, I'm so sorry everyone was crying!!
dyk how do you feel about the punishment you've set up now that it's dealt out?
dyk when my kids cry, I always think, ok, they got it, or its working, lol but they are 5 and 3, so when they get punished and really understand it, or it's a really good punishment, they cry
dyk at bedtime, when I send them back to bed, if they cry, I know that's the last time we'll see them
dyk wow, that is quite the tirade of events there... did I use that word correctly?
dyk we didn't have any family drama, except some concern over my aunt (my mom's older sister) who is really unhappy with her DH and they (my mom and her other 2 sisters) think she may be suffering some emotional effects of menopause but denying it and taking it out on her DH b/c he's not changed at all - in fact, he normally bugs the hell out of me but I found him quite charming, pleasant and extremely helpful withthe kids!
dyk and I adore my cousin Holly (10)
DYK- After my meltdown about Megan Friday night, I spent all of Saturday shopping with a friend while our husbands spent the day watching football.
DYK- Michael insisted I needed to get out of the house and de-stress
DYK- All I bought were socks and we shopped from 10:00 AM - 5:30 PM
DYK - Back to their house for a dinner of prime rib, twice baked potatoes, green beans, rolls... (UGH)
DYK- When you put our two husbands together they can really cook, separately, they can't.... (or won't).
DYK - So my bedroom cleaning took place yesterday - before Megan got home.
DYK- The punishment is still standing, but I wonder if it was way too harsh?
DYK- I did negotiate the make-up
DYK- This will be a week-long conversation
DYK- She does not understand why I don't like the pictures
DYK- I told her they made her look like an idiot and they were stupid
DYK- She thought I was calling her an idiot and stupid (well yeah, but not really)
DYK - THE PICTURES are stupid and make her look like an idiot!
DYK- And I also told her they made her look trashy - that she may have understood - we'll see.
