Default What's going on 10/10?

Still no cigarette. Really cranky. Hope I make thru the day, today is my busy day with daycare kids, and dd's dance class tonight. Gonna need lots of encouragement today! I've been crocheting and knitting to keep my hands busy.

Need to vacuum before babies get here.

I also have a sore throat and stuffy nose! Daycare kids keep passing it around!!!

Mellow day here daycare kids wise. My own kids get out at 11:25 from school and will be just putzing around. It is windy, cold, and rainy today. Not in mood to do much. Maybe cooking some later. And finding something to watch on tv tonight. Boring boring wednesday!

Good job with the no cig Julie! You can do it!

Kind of busy day here today, Dh was up early driving to dd's & giving her our car so she could use it to drive to the HS to work & driving her old one here to remove plates from it & park it til one of those companies that take away your car for free comes to get it and the money goes to the charity of your choice. We have 2 cars & the proceeds are going to the NASCAR supported charity Victory Junction Gang Camp.
Later today the septic will be pumped out (oh joy) and then it's off to dd's this afternoon to meet her & drive her to pick up her new car and then come home while she drives off to her 2nd job.
Not much else going on besides laundry getting done between it all.

Good health wished for fellow Villagers & those they love. Enjoy the day!

Julie~ WTG! My husband is also cutting down (he won't say quitting yet).

I ran DD to/from preschool this morning, stopped by the gas station for milk, and that's about it. I'm still not feeling too strong after last week's surgery.

This afternoon DS's nurse will be here around 3:30... the woman has never been on time yet. I need to do some general housecleaning before she comes- nothing too big, just mopping, vacuuming and picking up.

Then tonight we'll just be relaxing at home- watching tv, gathering up the weekly trash, etc.

Happy Wednesday, everyone!

Default NO SMOKING ZONE

I used to be a smoker and my dad COUGH COUGH is a big time smoker. I beleive when i visit my dad i get enough nicotine to last me the week til i visit again and when i leave i have to shower and change clothes cause i can smell the smoke all over me. that is how conscentrated the smoke is at dads.
PLease continue the fight to quit.

Try Kid Nation 7 pm Central time i am enjoying this show on wednesday nights.


Today i will attack the kitchen, that floor looks awful nasty. So there will be no eating off it til i get down and scrub that thing. GRRRRR> plus a friend gave me a pressure cooker (really old) for my birthday, Unfortunately not a canner too. . i got to scrub that sucker up and get it ready for some of the recipes i seen on this forum. Plus i need to learn how to use it. It has a little round piece of metal you set on top for the different pressures 5,10,15. i will fiqure it out hopefully. if you dont hear from me in the next few days, call 911, i didnt fiqure it out properly.
