Me too!!

Got Kris's kitchen cleaned up, two loads of laundry done for her and planted the rest of the veggie garden and weeded most of it. Whew.. I'm tired!!

Came home and finished the mulch edging around the pool and planted all the things I grew from seed except the Tomato plants. Just have some ferns I got from ebay to plant now.

Off to a rehearsal at 4. Will be back later.

Oh me oh my . . . I was sooo busy with Ayla's first birthday party, I didn't check the forum for a little while and find out everyone is pregnant, lol. Well maybe not everyone, but I am really excited none the less.

Congratulations Haydee and Lara. It is hard not to be a little jealous now that my little girly girl is 1 and leaving babyhood far behind, lol.

I'm still in a state of shock, I can't believe how fertile we turned out to be..and to think I was going to be doing fertility testing at one point!!

Really? I didn't realize that. Why were you gonna do fertility testing if you hadn't even tried?

Heather, are you done having babies? You don't want one more? :tongue2:

I made chicken tetrazzini for dinner. Made it so fast! Had it in the oven in less than 15 min. I wish every nights meal was like this.

I'm watching "behind the scenes of Saturday night fever". Love that movie! Love the soundtrack. I think that was the first tape I ever bought.

Good morning, Violets..

Can't post much here, I have upteen countdowns to manage.. whew!:tongue2:

Rainy, dreary day here today. Glad I got things done in the yard yesterday. Bob got the backyard lawn mowed at 9:30 last night. It's supposed to rain the rest of the week and the grass needed to be mowed, so he couldn't wait.

Guess I'll be working inside today. Off to my hospital shift, then practicing flute for a while before choir tonight.

Everyone have a great day!!

Busy w/last week of school stuff (picnics, meet the coaches night, baking for teachers, thank you notes & gifts) + work + regular stuff, + getting ready for Sat's party... phew!

Loved last night's Glee! That version of "Over the Rainbow" is one of my all-time fav songs.

Have a great day!

Aww, I didn't watch glee last night. Juan doesn't like it very much so I always watch it the next day after work.

Nothing much going on here. I'm starting the thank you cards tomorrow because who knows how long its gonna take my photog to get the cards to me. I'm gonna go find some really nice stationary and get to it. I don't feel good waiting so long to get them out...

Another dreary day here. Lots of rain scheduled. I have two weddings this weekend but its supposed to clear up but its supposed to be hot hot hot

Judy, would you be interested in adopting a 30-something with ready-made grandbabies already in tow . . . I could sure use a little help from time to time, lol. :thumbup:

Heather, are you done having babies? You don't want one more? :thumbup:

I think I might want one more . . . and my husband has been talking about it since we were in the hospital with Ayla, lol.

However, I think for me it is optimum to have 3-4 years between them. That way there is less rivalry and the older child can really feel a part in bringing up their sibling.

When I say helping to bring up the younger child, I am talking more about teaching sharing, caring, learning to speak with each other, learning how to play games with each other, etc. I come from a very large family with six children and the closest siblings in my family are never the ones closest in age.

Hey Girls~

Watching Monster House for the 1000000th time! Gotta love the second to last day...Bingo, Checkers, mazes, word searches, movies...teachers frantically cleaning their desks!!!

LOVED Glee...omg, what an outstanding show! Loved the music and the message...and when the kids sang to Will (my boyfriend), I cried! A friend of mine sent me a Glee hat she got last year at the XGames. It is red too!

Went to a nice gay bar last night and played Bingo! It was fun! Really beautiful place...great drink specials too.

Other than that...we are hanging in. Susanne works for Palm Springs High graduation tonight too, sooooo she left the house at 5:40am and will get home about 8 tonight! Poor thing...good overtime, but she'll be tired and cranky.

Tomorrow after school, we are having Jackie, Melissa, Jenny, BA, and Annette over for bbq and swimming. They will bring all the food too! I have some brownies I might make tonight for the girls...depends if I want the oven on!

Went to Del Taco for Breakfast w/ Jenny. She is my bff and I don't know if I mentioned it, but she got bumped and has to work at another school next year! Soooo sad...f*&king budget cuts. So the "regular classes " (not mine, I teach English Language Dev.) will have 40+ in our classes, and she has to teach 5th grade! We don't "belong" to our schools, but to the district. At anytime we can be moved. On the upside, she at least still has a job...the district laid off 34 teachers for next year:mad::thumbup:. Soooo sad.

I am sure I'll think of more to say, lol...pop in later during intermission:biggrin::smile:

Good afternoon, Violets..

Still a dreary day here. Very cloudy, misty and chilly. Not a day to do anything outside.

I only got to see the last part of Glee last night, but it was sooooooo good. Loved the interaction with Sue and Will and who she voted for in Regionals.

Off to fix a sandwich for lunch and then practice some for a concert on Sunday.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
