Tell me Tuesday

Tinydancer · Guru

Work and then out to dinner. I can't remember the last time I ate out so I'm looking forward to it.

Morning.

What are my plans?

Lindley · Guru

I'm babysitting my little man.💖

Lexxy · My dog name is Sasha, too!

Working like every other week day. Boring.

FNW · Guru

Working from home. Rainy and in the 40's here. Bleh.

I just picked DD8 up from school. Nurse said she had a temp of 99.7 and really swollen tonsils. I get her home and check, tonsils are fine, she has naturally big tonsils. Temp is completely normal- I checked DD1 and mine to compare and we are all normal.

Her voice is really scratchy and she has developed a yucky sounding cough, but I don't think she needs to stay home for that.

It's crazy how the schools will over react.

I hope it's nothing.

It is a beautiful, chilly and rainy day. Yes, I am ever the optimist mostly because I m awake on this side of the dirt.

Working today. Finishing year end with the accountant. Catching up on stuff.

Got my first feedback from my first paper. Out of 7 categories that are rated 1-4 (4 highest), four came back with a 4, one with a 3 and two with a 1. One of the 1s was because I did not turn it in with the correct format (realized I submitted the wrong one). The second 1 is because I need to put in more info.

Agreed. I don't doubt that she doesn't feel her best, but I think as long as you are able to sit and do schoolwork you should. DD likes staying home sick, she likes how she is doted on when she is sick, so she is prone to play it up, but then be bored when she is actually home.

So I hope if she is coming down with something that the rest I will make her get today will get rid of it.

Kids learn how to work us.

I had to apologize to Jesse once.

He tells me he doesn't feel like going to school. I tell he is fine, no fever, you're going to school.

They call me about an hour later saying he is sick.

I pick him up, tell we are going to the doctor and if they tell me he is fine, he's getting grounded and going back to school.

An hour later I was apologizing and buying him a happy meal. He had strep.

Bless him. I felt soooooooo bad. But in my defense, he had gotten really good at getting out of school.

FNW · Guru

I had the same thing happen, with #1. He didn't want to go to school. I sent him anyway. Nurse called a couple hours later. Strep.

I think a big part of sending them home is to prevent the spread.

chef · Guru

I have to find my folder that has some paperwork in it I need. Hopefully I can find it today. It's been missing for awhile but I know it's in the apartment somewhere. I put it in its spot on the bookshelf last time I had it and haven't moved it. The likely reason it's missing doesn't remember where he put it.

It was windy while DH and I were out last night. We had a fun experience at Walmart last night. The lady in front of us at the cashier was buying a cart full of pet food. The one in front of her had a cart full of misc stuff. The lady in front of us offered to let us go ahead of her (she noticed we had perishables and she didn't). We politely declined. I commented that we were enjoying the night and didn't want to be home anyway so we're good. She adopted a haughty tone and said 'well, I will just make you wait!' and the three of us busted out laughing. The lady in front of her said that she'll just take extra long then, which led to another round of laughter. Fun times!

I have women's group tonight. It rained here all last night. Supposed to rain off and on for the next couple days. The temp tonight is supposed to be 33.

chef · Guru

Saw this last night. Oh, the many, many things that came to mind.

Spoiler

It doesn't know which one it is. Should we give it a bravery award? Which restroom should it use? Does it need the services of an advice columnist to figure its identity? Perhaps we should do away with the gender binary lest it feel offended or like it doesn't fit in.

Yes, I'm bad.

Considering it's been in the high 70's and low 80's here? That's cold!

Okay. You're forgiven. I just can't see spending that much money on mascara. Then again, I wear it so rarely...

I figured if I was going to buy something it should be something I would actually use. I wear Mascara and Concealer every day. I use Maybeline mascara and Bobby Brown Concealer.

Dropped DD off at the airport this morning. She is spending spring break in Los Angeles with her boyfriend and his family. They are excited to have her and she can't wait to get to the nice weather.

Meanwhile at home, DH and I are a coughing mess. We are hacking up crap and blowing our noses every few minutes. It's super sexy alone time. Lol

I did a bunch of work and returned my emails today. Now I need a nap. Whew. Exhausted.

I do!!! They are amazing. My nose is still a wreck, but not nearly as bad as it would be.

I cough like an 80 year old 2 pack a day smoker. It's a wet sounding cough and it'd disgusting. I wouldn't want to be near me right now.

I think one of my coworkers is trying out contacts. He usually wears glasses, and hasn't had them on yesterday or today. Thing is, his eyes are black. Like, looks possessed black. He can't not know how he looks, so I haven't said anything. He's such a sweet guy it's rather startling

I think I may have to be. These wussies canceled women's group because it's raining and supposed to drop down into the 30's in the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. Not at seven pm.

MM, the Vick's kleenex are da bomb.

DG, they're probably colored contacts. Maybe he is trying out the vampire look?

Mellow Momma · Sniff...sniff, sniff. Yay! A Bum!

I have Vicks all over myself. It helps. But when it wears off I am sad. The dog keeps smelling me and scowling. He doesn't like it when we don't smell like ourselves. Stinky lotion is his nightmare! He will try and lick it off.

Lexxy · My dog name is Sasha, too!

I just read this MSN thing about where have these celebrities gone. It was people who disappeared off the radar like Gene Hackman & Joe Pesci. They were all big names that haven't been in movies in a long while. The last one.....wait for it.....Caitlyn Jenner. Seriously MSN?!? How much did they pay you to sneak that one in there.

What do they expect you to do? Go to the nearest gas station?

The employer is supposed to provide a place to go. If not, you should be able to go home until the work place is fixed.

Got my first feedback from my first paper. Out of 7 categories that are rated 1-4 (4 highest), four came back with a 4, one with a 3 and two with a 1. One of the 1s was because I did not turn it in with the correct format (realized I submitted the wrong one). The second 1 is because I need to put in more info.
Overall not a bad score.
Good job!

Thank you!

Fortunately, I get up to three attempts before I need to submit it officially. Guess what I will be doing tomorrow!

DH went to pick up DS. He knew I was going to make dinner while he was gone. He still isn't back yet. Why? Because he had to turn pick up into social hour. Grrrrr!

I started eating without him. Dinner is delish.
