Tinydancer · Guru

Happy Friday Eve!

TrudyML · Guru

And the week drags on.

Morning!

Tinydancer · Guru

Have a beer. You'll feel better!

TrudyML · Guru

I'm the boss. Must be good!

Tinydancer · Guru

What a shame. Being good is so yesterday...

TrudyML · Guru

I just spent $300 at Banana Republic. Easing into work. LOL

Tinydancer · Guru

I guess you'd better stay at work then to pay for all those new clothes...You can have beer later

TrudyML · Guru

Beer for dinner. I thought the stuff was on sale. Nope. I forgot, I must start shopping for Mr. Diamond. His birthday is coming up. Eh, I'll go make coffee and snack.

Vette · Owl drink to that!

Friday for me, I'm not going to work OT tomorrow. I'm going to get my concealed weapons permit! I know, took me long enough.

TrudyML · Guru

*bang*

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

I'm going to Toys r us today and buying Jojo a bicycle for Christmas!

I don't wanna grow up, I'm a toyrus kid

Tinydancer · Guru

I love toy shopping. I guess I never really grew up...lol

I love the toy aisles.

Got some good rain Tuesday and yesterday - great for DH's
Fall tomatoes. We had the first of them yesterday in a salad.
Nothing tastes better than home grown veggies!

FNW · Guru

Getting ready to rain here. We could use it. #2 slept through the night for the first time this week. His coughing seems to be slowing down, sans medicine which is always a good thing. And that means I slept through the night, which will make for a more pleasant evening at the FNW house.

Went to Ulta and bought some fun stuff at lunchtime. Time to work. LOL

Oohh I love Ulta. They always have sales going on

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

It's trying to rain. We need it desperately.

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

I was hoping there would be more talk about gravy on this thread. Oh well. Everyone is having so much fun shopping. I have only a few more things to pick up. Hopefully my budget will win out!

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

I was at Toys R Us a few days ago. Looking at baby stuff that I don't get to buy. Due to the whole no-relationship-no-family thing. Does anyone have a single cousin, brother, BIL, etc. that would be acceptable marriage material? I'm beginning to consider an arranged marriage at this point.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

I have a brother.

Ph.d, divorced, kids are older and live with their mom, he's a good guy. Likes to travel, doesn't need a lot of fuss made over him.

Works hard, can fix about anything.

I have a cousin. He's a little weird, super nice, but a little strange. Although, people who aren't related to him seem to think he's normal.

Lexxy · My dog name is Sasha, too!

Speaking of gravy.......I went to Logan's for lunch & got the buttermilk fried chicken breast smothered in white gravy. I'm not sure if this thread caused me to make that choice or not.

Tig I have a ravishingly handsome cousin. He has a beautiful deep voice. He is laid back & funny. Loves to travel. But he's not much for working. He's currently unemployed & going to California to hike & camp for a few weeks & not the least bit concerned about money. He drives the rest of us crazy. But he seems very content with his life.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Three choices.

We should play the Dating Game!

Or our own version of The Bachelor!

Divine Geek · Guru

You know what's the best? French fries dipped in brown gravy. Mmmmmm so good

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

That is good!

I was dipping mine in the white gravy at lunch. Also totally delicious.

What happened? I feel sad for the little guy.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

Awww. Poor little guy

Lindley · Guru

We were at the playground at the zoo and my dil and him went down the slide and her leg bumped his into the side on the way down. I'm just as worried about her, she feels like a horrible mommy and is very upset with herself. It was just a freak accident.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Poor mom. She will feel bad longer than it takes for that leg to heal.

I think we've all done something or other like that.

Tell her that you have a friend who when she was about 5, her dad hit her in the face with a basketball and knocked out 3 teeth. And I'm - I mean she, is well adjusted and loves her dad. Little guy will be good as new in no time and has a good party story.

When my daughter was 7, she fell off a swing and hurt her shoulder. Yeah, 5 days later, I take her to the doctor because it's not getting any better and she had a broken collarbone. BROKEN, not fractured. I felt like schitt for a LONG time. She laughs about it now...so tell your dil these stories. She's not the first and will certainly not be the last...

Lexxy · My dog name is Sasha, too!

My bff was carrying her toddler up her front steps & didn't realize they were icy. She fell with him & his head slammed into the concrete. He had a huge goose egg & most likely a mild concussion. He recovered just fine.

Lindley · Guru

Thanks guys☺ I did tell her a few of my stories too! I accidentally dislocated my two year olds arm while I was playing with her. I cried for a long time.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

I pushed my little sister on the swing so hard she fell off and broke her arm.

Divine Geek · Guru

My dad was throwing my sister in the air and catching her. He threw her into a chandelier.

Ohfour · Hooker

I stuck a bobby pin in my sisters ear (I have NO IDEA why I would do that) and ruptured her eardrum. Blood EVERYWHERE! She was 2 I was 4...

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

My dad waxed my new slide and it was so slick I flew off the bottom and broke my tailbone. I was 4.

At 6, he was pushing me on the swing, I fell off backwards and broke my tailbone, again.

I broke my brother's nose with a basebal. Scratched his cornea while playing "circus".

Caitlyn was 3 when she grabbed a hot iron and badly burned her hand while mom was ironing.

I fell going up some stairs while carrying Jesse, he was about 4 months old.

When DS was 9 months, I put him in his car seat in the car to drive ex dead dh to work. WHen I shut the door I didn't see that DS had curled is little cute baby fingers around part of the door jam. I drove away and within 30 seconds he turned red and started screaming.

My oldest sister, dragged my other sis across the living room rug. The five of us kids were left alone, oldest sis was maybe 17 at the time. Well my two brothers had just broken a vase in the living room horsing around, so my sis' arm was dragged through the broken glass. What a bloody mess!

What is it SB?

These injury stories, I can't decide whether to laugh or be horrified! I'll go ahead and laugh hahaha

At a family reunion at my dad's house my then toddler brother fell into a little pond in the back yard (over his head). Everyone thought everyone else was keeping an eye on him, and when I heard him cry I jumped in and drug him out of there. (Is it drug or dragged?)
