1:47 am

TraderKate

Did hubby also have a good time? Was there cake? food? dancing in the streets? ;)

1:49 am

grannyrose

plenty of food. Dan ordered 13 pizzas to be delivered for dinner... loll he had also laid on my fave drink, red wine and lo-cal lemonade. DH played with Sophia and she utterly enchanted him hang n while i type in a game she played with Don.

1:51 am

grannyrose

sophia was given junior lego, snow white etc. her aunty jen(son josh's wife) decided a log seat was actually a loo. the characters had to go to the toilet every now and again, but when the deer went there was no toilet paper, so it used the cherries. a little later snow white ate the cherries and fell down dead.

1:52 am

TraderKate

My goodness... laughing at the imagination! I'll never look at chocolate covered cherries the dame agian ;)

1:52 am

1:55 am

grannyrose

i gave her a china doll's tea set which she apparently hasn't stopped playing with. and the dress jewellry i gave her in a little white leather handbag was played with also. she would empty out the handbag put some on, then it all came off and was put away. then 5 minutes later the same thing happened . it was so cute to watch.

1:55 am

TraderKate

I'm sure she'll get years of play out of them!

1:56 am

grannyrose

i was a little sore. the muscles were achy. so i took some magnesium and a small dose of valium and it all settled down again.

1:56 am

TraderKate

Quite the little lady, with all her finery! Must have been so cute to watch. I love kids at that age

1:57 am

TraderKate

hiya welk. how goes it?

8:02 am

welki

it's going :)

8:03 am

72 Temple Owl

i am trying to get enough gumption to go to the gym. time to begin anew.

8:05 am

welki

can you bribe yourself? lol

8:06 am

72 Temple Owl

well, since i have been eating every craving all weekend, short of a martini, i don't think so

8:08 am

welki

then maybe you have to up the ante - if you go, you can buy that bottle of godiva chocolate :)

8:08 am

72 Temple Owl

i am awaiting word on my car. i surmise they will not get it until the three day right of recission has passed

8:09 am

72 Temple Owl

a bottle of chocolate? my toe is very dark this am and did not like bodyflow yesterday.

8:10 am

welki

i thought there was a chocolate liqueur you liked by godiva

8:10 am

72 Temple Owl

ooh yes- how could I forget???

8:10 am

welki

(and the car will be just as you ordered)

8:11 am

72 Temple Owl

yes but i did not make a good deal. i must remember to ask them to extend the warranty.

8:12 am

72 Temple Owl

i am waiting to see if the sales rep who deals with the mfr will get me what was promised.

8:13 am

welki

well, if you hear nothing and are uncomfortable with the deal you made, cancel it and start over again

8:13 am

welki

if you have that three day's leeway, you might want to take advantage of it - that way, no buyer's remorse

8:14 am

72 Temple Owl

thanks for the advise.. i've been weighing that.

8:14 am

72 Temple Owl

see you later! nice grid today.

Scrabbler

Yay, Bea! Say, "Good bye diapers!"

8:55 am

MLFAN17

welk I odnt understand the clue sorry

8:55 am

BzznBea

Well, no. He still wants to wear diapers.

8:56 am

Scrabbler

Of course, he does, because he doesn't want to say goodbye to being a toddler. Push him along into an independent preschooler.

8:57 am

BzznBea

Baby Sister is just two weeks old, so there has been a slight set back in the training area.

8:57 am

Scrabbler

Like Nike says, "Just do it." The cost of diapers is outrageous too.

8:57 am

welki

mlf, the root word means to measure out

8:57 am

bichon

te 8/70, pls

8:58 am

BzznBea

I ordered him some underwear like dad wears, and I will be there next week, so I'm hoping to help mom get over the hump.

8:59 am

MLFAN17

i got a me 6/24 which i just thought of

8:59 am

Scrabbler

Keep him in underwear all day. Bring him to the toilet on a schedule, say every 30-60 minutes. Diapers are just for sleeping.

9:00 am

BzznBea

That's how I trained my girls ages ago. Mom is just a bit overwhelmed right now. =)

9:01 am

bichon

There are toddlers who are very receptive to potty training [like my two and grrandaughter then there are to like another granddauter and grandson who were both 4

9:01 am

Scrabbler

And discuss the poor baby that has to wear a diaper, that cannot talk, that cannot eat food, etc. But HE is not a baby.

9:01 am

BzznBea

You know it is time for underwear when they can change their won diaper...

9:01 am

Scrabbler

Oh, yeah, I bet she is totally exhausted and stressed.

9:01 am

MLFAN17

bichon i don't have the te word sorry

9:02 am

BzznBea

We have had that discussion. "But I am the baby!"

9:02 am

Scrabbler

The best window of opportunity is 20-22 months. Beyond 30 months it becomes a long, drawn-out battle.

9:03 am

Scrabbler

I mean 20-28 months.

9:03 am

BzznBea

We will get there.

9:03 am

Scrabbler

Now I have to shop for my mother, including getting her adult diapers.

9:03 am

BzznBea

=)

9:03 am

Scrabbler

Yes, he will accept the challenge.

9:03 am

BzznBea

The cycle of life.

9:04 am

Scrabbler

Yes.

9:08 am

BzznBea

Bichon, the te8 uses ox4/10 at the end

9:10 am

BzznBea

Use the ox5/22 for the 9

9:10 am

Here's how much of a jerk our City Administrator is: he fired our building/codes clerk on the last day of her 1-year probationary period. He would not give her a reason why.

From all reports, she was doing a great job. My thinking is he just doesn't want to add another Union member to the work force.

1:33 pm

periwinkle

that could be but that is not fair

1:34 pm

periwinkle

can she fight it?

1:35 pm

Judi

Wondering that myself, Peri. Our Union President had filed a grievance on behalf of the City Admin. office staff. Perhaps this is his way of retaliating. I would not put it past him.

as well as i can be. a little achy. our changeable weather is wreaking havoc on my body. and you bugs?

8:16 pm

Bugsaw

I have the same aches with damp weather but we are having a lovely fall season here this year. Most unusual to not have rain now.

8:19 pm

grannyrose

nice bugs. i bet the trees are glorious

8:20 pm

Bugsaw

they are. still lots of colours and not many have fallen

8:22 pm

Bugsaw

what season are you having just now, rose? One of my students moved to Melbourne and I was thinking about him today.

8:23 pm

grannyrose

it's supposed to be spring.. loll. we are swining between really hot days and warm nights, and bitterly cold days and nights. its a wonder we aren't all suffering pneumonia.

8:24 pm

grannyrose

*swinging*

8:24 pm

Bugsaw

makes it hard to plan ahead then. hope it ends soon and moves to summer for you, only without the fires

8:27 pm

grannyrose
