TracyK

Good morning violets- Tracy-i do not know what to say and I am rarely at a loss for words. I am so sorry for what you are going through (((hugs))) Pamela-welcome home violet sista! I am so glad that you and Susanne made it home safely and that you had a good time! I did get to see BB and it loks like it is going to be good. AGAIN! Kat-we will just deal with the ex with the time comes. She has been pretty fair so fair so I can not really complain that much. It could be alot worse from stories I hear from others. Is Kinsey better? Michelle-welcome home to you too. Glad you had fun. I'll bet your dd will have fun with her g'parents! How far away is she? Laura-your dad did awesome! That is a great accomplishent it is to go so far. I would LOVE to do that. Haydee-hi chica! How are you? So I assume the new store got opened after the trouble you all had with the permits in the beginning? When are you looking to start your new job? I'll bet that makes you a little nervous/excited?! Terry-are you all healed up? How happy are you with the results? I hope it is everything you had hoped for! Jane-I wonder how much of a fill they will give you next week. How much did you have before? What would you like it to be? Judy-I know that you wish it were warmer there for pool purposes but I would switch with you if I could! The 95-100 is getting old quick. I guess if I had a pool in my backyard I would not be complaining! :tongue_smilie: Suzie-yay....you finally got your pool! Just a few more days and you should be just a memory on this board. You are going to be in your pool every waking hour and forget about all of us violets :tt1: I am jealous Jennifer-I miss you still. :wink2: If I missed anyone on the personals I apologize. Macy is doing good on her swimming lessons. She finally went under without holding her nose. That is a huge deal to me cause I won't do it! lol I guess I have to do it now...practice what I preach kind of thing! I am really adjusting to this sahm thing! Not that I really had any doubt cause it is what I have longed for. DH starts his new job on Monday. His high school has not sent in hs transcript for his new job yet though. They better get it over there by the end of the week cause it could cause him to not be able to start on Monday. That would suck bad! I will keep my fingers crossed. DH has an aunt that is on the school board so maybe she can pull a few strings. Everyone have a great day...I need to go make dd some Breakfast. I will check in later :eek:

Kat-the divorce papers say we get a month in the summer but we never press the issue for 2 reasons #1 because they would not wanna stay that long anyway #2 They would have had to go in daycare c ause up until now we both worked. (and number 3, the youngest would have a stroke if he had to stay away from his mom that long).

Good morning violets~ Wow, I slept like a baby last night. I didn't budge all night. At least I don't think I did! lol Today will be a quiet day. Swimming lessons is about all we have planned. Oh well, I need to get off here right now cause everyone is up and calling my name for one reason or another....

Hi everyone... Have a good day and I will check in later.

Good morning violets- Busy busy this morning so I wil bbl.....take care!

Kat-thanks for the ideas! Michelle-I would love to have the books! Thank you! Ya know...I sure wish I could have been in the position to be a SAHM from the beginning when she was born. I cried everyday for a long time when I would have to leave her. Unfortunately we just could not afford it. You were very lucky to be able to be there for your kids from day 1. I have alot of pity for those who can't stay home with their kids. At least I can do it now...there will be sacrifices, but it will be worth it in the long run :cool: Pamela-It doesn't matter when I get my postcard...even if it is 4 months from now I will still LOVE it! Janie-thank you for my card...you are a sweet heart! Terry-did you go have a fill? How much did you get? I am going to have to get .4 or .5 then just let them remove it as needed since unfills do not cost. I am gonna probably go in a few weeks. I wish I could do it sooner but until then it looks like good old fashioned will power will have to work! lol Haydee-are you a wedding planner or something? Tracy-still saying prayers for your mom. By the way, are blizzards all you consume? That has to be the secret of not gaining... lol Judy-you PB on oatmeal? Really? Laura-so how is your dh doing on the low carb thing? Well, macy is at her mawmaws house Have a great evening everyone...I am SURE to!

Judy-SUGAR RUSH....yes of course...that is exactly what I will do....give macy a sugar buzz...NOT! (she would have to fight me for the ice cream!) lol Suzie-we have the tent already We are thinking on the same lines.

Laura-your dad is doing GREAT! how exciting...I am excited and he's not my dad Good morning violets~we all slept so good! I have never had macy sleep until 7:20 before....her sister & brother wore her out. My mom & stepdad are coming over today to pick up Macy for the weekend. This first week as a SAHM has been beyond my expectations. We had so much fun just being together. How great, right?! I found out something though...I am not that good on kids lunch ideas. Anyone care to throw out some suggestions?

Suzie-I think we are just as excited about your pool as you are!

Kat-I do not think she does get his W2...why would she? I have never heard of an ex getting W2s of their former partner?! Now you have me worried! BUT...if she says she wants more, then we have some things up our sleeves as well....like amending the part where he pays the same amount until the youngest child turns 18.

My dad was a fireman, so I have trouble thinking that they are 'hot'. But all my dads fireman friends were hot....lol, so I guess they are! Well, it is just a matter of time now that my ex-wife-in-law (franks ex) finds out about his new job and me 'retiring'. Since she has to work now I am sure the news will go over like a lead balloon. Like its any of her business anyway. UGH.....:redface: Today dh, me and the 3 kids are going swimming. Then we are going to the chinese buffet but I am going to try to talk the kids into something else cause I always PB there so I am getting the hint. They really love it there so if we end up doing that then I will just watch them eat and have something when we get home. Tracy-how is your mom? I am praying for her. Terry-what in the world have you been up to and how is your mom? Kat-sorry about your uncle. You really have had your plate full with everything going on. Don't over do it, ok? Judy-what is on your agenda today? You are the busiest retired person I know! Haydee-how are you pretty lady? Is your dad still recovering fast? Laura-that is so cool about your dad. I love the WSOP. Let me know how far he goes! Michelle-loved loved LOVED the pic! You sure are starting to look like you are in the 'boney maroney' club :ohmy: Pamela-come BACK...WE MISS YOU! Jenn-come back....WE MISS YOU TOO! Jane-I still have my internal clock that goes off around 5 or 6 but gradually it is later every day...plus macys internal clock is still on. But, I woke up at 4:30 this morning and went back to sleep at 5:30 and macy did not wake me up again til 6:50 so that is awesome! It feels so weird not setting an alarm! But I am rapidly getting used to it. Suzie-I bought you a card and you will robably be all healed up by the time I mail it...the thought was there. First I did not have youor address, then I realized I am out of stamps. DUH. So, if you are all healed up when you get it, you now know why its late. :thumbup: Have a super duper day everyone! :smile2:

Hi Stacy....Dickinson, TX here.....we are neighbors. Spivak did my surgery too. Hi violets~have a great evening. Lots of kids running around and noise so I will just see you all in the morning!

Reading time at the library was fun. On the way there, my friend that worked with me (that is taking my place) called and was telling me about the temp she was trying to train and how she wasn't "getting it" and what would I do? I reminded her how it took me like 11 temps before I found a good one (HER) so.... Makes me feel good to know I am missed. Just finishing lunch and heading to swimming class then to pick up dsd and dss. I hope things are going well for Tracy and her mom. :smile:

(((((((Tracy))))))))

Haydee-he starts his new job on the 21st (pending a clear background check & drug test, which will not be a problem). He is SO happy. I really should say WE are so happy. This is just HUGE for us! :thumbup: How are you? Me & Macy are leaving in a few minutes for the library for Preschool Reading Time

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAMELA!! :thumbup: Today its swimming lessons and some shopping and then dss and dsd are coming this afternoon and staying until Friday. DH went for his drug test on monday and we are waiting for his hire package to come in the mail. This is so exciting! Have a great day everyone!

((((HUGS)))) Tracy-your mom as well as you and your sister are in my prayers! I am so sorry for what you are going through. Much love...

me me me

I am going to give it a few more days before I eigh to see if I have lost cause it is TOM and I feel so bloated... TMI, I know....

:cool2: :tt1::eek::tt2::tt1::wub::jaw::eek::tt1:

Kat-how are things this morning? So sorry you all had to go through that....I can not even imagine the fear!

Happy Birthday Michelle!!! :party:

Laura-are you a winner $$$ ? Terry-are you OK? Michelle-we do have an orientation for dd. It is 2 weeks before school starts. I will find out one way or another about the nap thing cause I sure need to know! House-good for you on taking control again. Feels good, right?! TracyinKS-welcome back. Glad you had fun in Vegas. Suzie-yay for the positive outlook. The past is the past. Kat-have fun shopping! I will check back in after swimming lessons....

Judy-she will be going all day. :tt1: She would be ok with 'quiet time'. If I can not find out anything for sure, it will probably be best to just make sure I make her lay down for a little while every day, huh?

Good morning from home Violets~ WOOOHOOOO The reality still has not kicked in yet. It probably won't for about a 2 or 3 weeks....we'll see. Today Macy starts her swimming lessons. We are also going to make our 'big girl school' calender. It will just have stickers & stuff of activities we have planned and a countdown to when she starts 'big girl school'. I need to find out if she is going to be taking naps in kindergarten. If so, I need to keep her on schedule here too. I would be a disaster for me to let her stop taking naps then when she starts school to have to start taking them again....she would not be a happy camper and she would not want to even go. Hoepfully someone will be at the school today when I call. I really need to find out. I hope the answer is no. She sleeps so much better at night if she hasn't had a nap during the day. So did everyone have a great 4th? I did! :thumbup: Pamela~we sure do miss you! Jenn....do you have your computer yet? We really miss you!
