Thanks J. I'm still SMDH over hanging an oil painting in a bathroom. I love giving things, sending cards, all that jazz, I just hate it when they can't even say a simple thank you.
Smdh?
Semi-miffed despite a hangover?
Smacking my ? Head?
Bella, you know we suck at this sort of thing! :)
For my northern friends.
How Canada Got It's Name
Three early French trappers were stuck for the winter, warming their arses and drinking heavily.
One of'em piped up about this country needing a name.
Caine says, "I think it should start with a C, eh?
Neville says, "It should have a N, eh?
Darell says, And it should have a, D, eh?
And there they had it, C A N A D A... What'aya think, eh?
I just singed my hair and the first two fingers of my left hand on the gas grill... Welcome to summer!
Shaking my D*** head :)Quote:

Anyway, off to the camp for some much needed rest and relaxation. Clear my head and think positively. I hope everyone has a happy Easter! Lots of Love!

The funny part was that Little J came out and asked "Mom, what smells like marshmallows!" I said... ME! And he just rolled his eyes.Quote:

Oh GOD I need a rant too.
So much of mankind is such a disgrace. It makes me feel sick to know what some people do, how some people live, the views some people have. Maybe that makes me fascist. O.O
No, it makes you human. We all have our own peeves of the world around us and Im sure if most of us could have it our way we would change something about the world around us.Quote:

Wait... am I in the peeves thread? Crap, I'm lost! ;)
Well, since I'm already here, I have to say that my peeve right now is that too many people have quit at my job. That's leaving us short staffed, which means that I'm working more hours. I was supposed to have a 3 day weekend this weekend, like last weekend, but they called and begged me to come in tomorrow. Since I asked to take a week off (which I'm entitled to) at the end of April, I decided to go in tomorrow, hoping that they'll then allow me the time I requested. I get two weeks paid vacation this year, and I plan on taking the last week of April and the last week of May off. I also plan on taking the summer off to spend time with the kids and with Bella when she's here visiting. :)
But still, I'm not all too happy about going in tomorrow. I guess I have to suck it up though. :(
Well, not to be a wet blanket, Alty, but okay, here I go. Be glad you're healthy and have a job. I lost mine when I had breast cancer two and a half years ago. I'm fine now and am reinventing myself, but I wish I could sit at my old desk again and catalog books.
Yeah, I know. I played the "you don't know how good you have it" card. Thank God or Mother Nature for your relative youth and good health.
I just want to take this time to thank Alka for coming back. I really appreciate your help in all of the women's health issues!
And redhed's back too -- YAY!
Thanks, although I'm definitely nowhere near your level of expertise. Lol.Quote:

Darn dog just won't get off the juice. I need a doggy intervention. He's a good dog, well behaved, and apparently could do with some AA meetings...
Are you having problems with your computer or the printer? And how could your dog hold a screw driver and help undo any of the screws? ;)Quote:

Hopefully the meds are starting to work.
Now what? The same situation or something new?Quote:

That's mine, the generic. (Sorry this took so long to post. I went to check the bottle and was held captive by apple pie and a cup of coffee.)Quote:

WG, I am grateful to have a job and be able to work that job. Really I am. It's just that I had plans with the kids tomorrow, and the idea of going to work instead, well, it's depressing me a bit. But I'm only working a half shift, so it's not that bad. In fact, by the time I get back Rod and Jared will likely still be sleeping, so they won't even miss me. Syd will, but she'll be okay. Tomorrow night we color easter eggs! Sunday we're invited to what is always a marvelous feast at my Aunts house. I can't wait. Then it's a full work week next week, and hubby is on nights, which is always hard.
But right now work isn't the main issue. Rod finally took a look at the dishwasher. He's not sure what the problem is, and he's usually very good with plumbing issues, and appliance issues. He thinks it's the dishwasher itself, because he can't find any other issues. Here's the part that ticks me off. We just bought that dishwasher 3 years ago, and we bought the best one we could afford so that it would last. It cost us $1400! Now we have to get a new one? They just don't build things to last anymore. :(
Alka, for me it's the peabutter squares. Yes, I said peabutter. Hubby is allergic to peanut butter, so we buy peabutter, made with chickpeas. It looks and tastes exactly like peanut butter, without those nasty hubby killing nuts inside. :)
But did I make you feel guilty for complaining? Even just a little bit? :)Quote:

A good majority of my diet is Mediterranean, so Chickpeas and their byproducts are very familiar to me. I'm a hummus pita every day sort of gal. I have a lactose intolerance too, so I eat a lot of soy products and lactaid with some almond milk on the side :)Quote:

Alty, I'm sorry about the dishwasher issue. You didn't happen to buy an extended warranty did you?
We got a new dishwasher. Leons was having a sale, so we got a pretty good brand name dishwasher for $250 brand new. Now here's hoping that the leak was because of the dishwasher, and not some other issue. Sigh.
I'm keeping my eyes on the washer and dryer. I'm sure they're the next to go. After all, in the last year we've lost 2 stoves, a fridge, the dishwasher. The one stove was only a few months old. The fridge, well, it was 16 years old so that's understandable. The dishwasher was only 3 years old. The washer and dryer are 16 years old, almost 17, so I'm worried.
They just don't make them like they used to. :(
