What kind of errands....
| Wed, 08-31-2005 - 1:41pm |
Do you run on a daily basis? Weekly basis? Monthly basis?
I've often heard people say that they need a lot of time during the week to run errands and that those errands would otherwise take up their evenings and weekends if they had to WOH ft. It made me curious because I just don't seem to have many errands to run at all. Are we just lazy :-)?

Really? Proximity to school didn't enter into your mind at all?
My mom is my children's emergency contact outside of me/dh. I guess I could have put MIL down there b/c I trust her as much as I do my own mother, but considering she lives about 3500 miles away, and my mom is 15 mins from my children's school and any hospital my kids might end up in the case of a serious accident, I'd prefer for her to be the one called. I like to think that my kids don't just need decisions made by phone, but also some physical comfort from someone they know. They wouldn't get that if MIL was the contact b/c it would take MIL at least 7-8 hrs to get here.
What is the farthest you/your dh have ever been from your ds in any given day when you might get a call from the nurse about your vomiting kid? If you have never been in a situation where your child would be left sitting in the nurse's office for several hours, then perhaps you don't understand. But if I or dh could not get to one of our kids w/in an hour or so, I would prefer that my designated emergency contact pick up my child rather than force them to hang out in the nurse's office when they are puking. I have family and friends who would do this for us, and I would do the same for them.
Really really.
"What is the farthest you/your dh have ever been from your ds in any given day when you might get a call from the nurse about your vomiting kid?" More than an hour.
Edited to add I'm not sure why he'd be any happier puking at my neighbor's than in the school nurse's office anyhow. Puking's kind of puking.

I'm not sure why you've chosen QM for your charity today. Certainly Sue knows whether she's agreeing with QM or not - QM has posted ad nauseum what her viewpoint is. We all get it. We all - except you - have disagreed with it.
BTW, what does bettering oneself have ever to do with winning??
Lots of women watch the Martha Stewart show, but none expect to win a thing!
