Okay, well, I'll be Ginger, with the face and body of Angelina Jolie. Deal?
M, not when she's pregnant, but before, so no pictures of Angie pregnant. (scary that I know you so well ;))

Yep Friday lunchtime here , just about to head out to lunch actually. Still very busy though :(
Going to the Football tonight (Rugby League) , playing Soccer tomorrow and then out to dinner tomorrow night. Then off to the Motor Racing on Sunday.
Never a moments rest ;)
Wow, you're a busy bee M. :)
My weekend consists of cleaning, more cleaning, yard work, playing with the kids, helping my cousin write a resume, helping my cousin with her taxes, generally helping my cousin (she's not the brightest bulb on the tree).
I may sleep a bit, I may eat a bit, I will drink a bit, if not allot. ;)
Me too... :DQuote:

Well Football Season has started with the first exhibition game is over... and my Bears lost 24 - 20... not a good sign...
My Steelers play Sat.
Hey Stringer - know how to keep bears out of your backyard?
Put up goal posts.
:eek: :D
Sorry about that. Couldn't resist. ;)
Well Flyer, even though I am a die hard Bear Fan when you consider the last year or so you aren't far from wrong. Even though I have a close relationship with Jerry Angelo the General Manager of the Bears. His cousin works for me.
But you can't claim the Steelers all to yourself my friend. I too am a Steeler Fan and have been since I was 8 (a long , long time ago). In fact when I am back in Pgh we are going to one of the exhibition games. The Black and Gold rule but so do the Bears.
Funny... I was a Steeler fan way before the 70's when almost everyone became fans. I lived through those years when they were the "floor mat" for the whole NFL, I earned the right to be a fan... being at those many, many freezing games when only half of the stadium was full... and they won 2 maybe 3 games a year...
Stringer
I can't say I'm a Bears fan, but I've got nothing again them (tho I didn't like that too-full-of-himself QB they had in the 80s... CRS... name escapes me). I've been a Steeler fan all my life - yep, way before the SB70s. But even when they couldn't win no one liked to play them because they were tough. Just too bad they weren't also talented. But all that loyalty finally paid off... <G>
You two have lost me, totally lost. Bears, Steelers, sports, bah! :):):);)
Anyone know how to crochet? ;)
Patience... we listen to all the girlie talk you know... ha ha:cool:Quote:

Night Stringer. No crochet talk? How about needle point? Bra selections? Feminine hygiene? Come on, girl talk time. :)
Alty - I like to wear sports bras with no hooks or anything. Left overs from when I used to play sports. No women's ftbl then so I settled on softball and volleyball.
Oops... got right back into that sports stuff... <G>
Night Stringer.
I used to swim competitively in school, and I played tennis, but that was long ago. Now I just play with the kids, and they kick my butt all the time. Sad, isn't it? ;)
I could use my leg as an excuse... but too many have seen me play volleyball with it (tho one day it was very hot and it slipped off as I went for the ball and we had to suspend the game while I pulled myself together. :rolleyes:
These days though I usually stick to horseshoes or bocce (sub for bowling). These joints can't quite take it anymore. Got a copy of Tetris you can send?:D
(Sorry it took a while to answer, I had a brief power outtage and decided to go to the grocery store.)
Hey! Nice avatar NH! Hum, just don't run after me, you're warned. I'm an ace at that game, you can ask Tom and he'll tell you, haha! :)

Stringy... Stringy... Stringy!. ::tisk tisk::... LOL!
Goldenheartgirl, I've read some of your other posts, and they are all very much, if not worse, then this one.
I won't bother to tell you to smarten up, I doubt you'll be here long enough for it to matter.
If you want to stay on AMHD, then you should read the rules and regs and follow them.
Good luck.
Golden Heart Girl is gone... so sad... bye bye...
Anyway, when does the flight leave? I NEED IT SOOOOO BAD after today. You have no clue what a fetal demise does to you mentally. It's so hard on the nurses as well as on the family.
Sorry, had to unload.
J, are you okay? I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I can't imagine it. If you need to vent PM me, or I can PM you and give you my email address. I hope you're okay sweets. Big hug to you.
I'm okay now. It was hard though, the baby weighed less than a pound and was only 9 inches long. I can't divulge too much, due to HIPAA laws, as we always see here, but it broke my heart to pieces.
A friend of mine had a baby at 20 weeks. I wasn't there with her, but she had pictures of this wee little baby, a small little person, it's head was as big as my thumb. I say "it" because they weren't sure, it had male genitalia and ovaries, it was also a down syndrome baby and had other medical problems as well. No matter, the parents would have loved that baby like any other, but it wasn't meant to be.
She still has the tiny cap they put on the baby's head, all the pictures and the tiny cloth that was used for a diaper. The baby survived for 1 hour after the birth.
Why am I telling you this? Well, my friend had a hard time dealing with the loss, so many emotions, so much anger and sadness, but in the end, acceptance. The loss will always be there for that mother, but one day she'll find peace with this tragedy, really, she will.
I had a miscarriage with my 3rd child at 3 months. That was the hardest thing I ever went through. The doctors had to do an emergency D & C, I almost died from blood loss. It will be three years September 3, I still remember, I still mourn for the loss, but I have accepted it, so will this mother, eventually.
Big hug to you J, big bear hug.
I am so sorry to hear these stories Alty... I know it must be so hard.
I'm just angry at "baby daddy" who left shortly after the birth and never returned. Anger is a part of grief, and I guess, as a nurse, we go through the stages of grief as well as our patients.
Thanks for the bear hug Alty. I think I'll go hug my own children right now. Take them both (14 & 6) into our bed and all sleep as snug as bugs in a rug.
On a brighter note, I hate to bring things down. I think I'll take the kids to the zoo tomorrow. I had to send Little J off to first grade and Rae off to high school on my birthday. I think we will celebrate tomorrow.
Anger is a big part of grief, and the hardest part to deal with. You are a strong women J, with a big heart, the perfect nurse. :)
The zoo sound great, pet the bunnies for me, if they have any. :)
Give your kids a huge hug, loss makes us realize how lucky we are to have what we have. You are a lucky women, with two wonderful kids, and they are lucky too, they have a mother who loves them so very much.
As for my loss, well, it made me realize that each day counts. Each moment I have with my kids is special, even when they're driving me crazy. I too am a lucky women, I have two happy, healthy, wonderful kids, I wouldn't change a thing. :)
Your birthday? When? Today?
My Birthday was yesterday. Sent the little one off to first grade, the next one off to high school, the next one off to camp to prepare for Iraq, and the oldest to the OB to find out that I am having a grandson!!
Great day all in all.
Happy Belated Birthday J9!!
And congrats on being a grandma!!
Happy belated birthday J
Attachment 10958
And a grandson. That's great news. They're due in December right? Any names picked out?
Thanks sneezy, and I don't think I'm old enough to be a gramma, but I am 44 now, and the kids were married prior to conception, so at least I know I taught my kids right. LOL
HAAAAPPPYYY BELATED BIRTHDAY J9!! I hope you had a wonderful day, and a great year to come! :D
Names? Yes, Joseph Cole... Joseph after my father who passed last summer.Quote:

Thanks Starby, every day I wake up is a good day... LOL
I think I need to cut back on the "self medication" as it is making it hard to type correctly. Giggle.
