My youngest DD turns 1 tomorrow!! Happy Birthday Sweet Pea! I was in labor by 7 pm, and had her @ 12:38 AM on 12/18/09. I can't believe it's been a year!

For us it's beer brats w/ all the fixin's...plus potato salad, cottage cheese & Bush's baked beans.I'm glad that there will be leftovers:)

The bullock brothers farm has folks paying to work on their farm. And folks are lining up. And I've met these folks: hard workers that love the experience at the farm. Usually they have saved up for the first summer, and sometimes they get other jobs to continue living/working there. I just now...

Today i stopped in and got some great deals. BOGO for clothes only. Monday they are having a labor day sale. Everything is 1/2 off.Tomorrow is goodwills 50 tag day. I might go, i have developed the cold everyone else has had.So depends on how i feel in the morning.

I need some advice on how to help my neighbor... He's 49-yrs-old, and works with "concrete" (cast stone?) I'm not sure exactly what his work entails other than that it is physical labor. He says that he cannot wear gloves because then he cannot hold the equipment (?) or the concrete (?)...

I went into labor yesterday at 21 weeks along! The shot that they give you to stop contractions is crazy. I've never felt like that in my entire life. It feels like you just drank 12 pots of coffee. You're shaking, but only inside, you can't tell you're shaking just by looking at you...

While it SHOULD be a cook out day, I have a lot of cleaning and packing to do. I am making Lasagne and garlic bread. (I HAD most of the stuff already!) I had some garlic bread left over in the freezer from a dinner previously. I think I'll make it on low in the crock pot to save and to keep...

What's everyone up to? It's kinda cool-ish here, supposed to get up to 90 or so today. How's your weather? I think Gripey and I will make a run into town after I workout, clean up and get the paycheck done. He needs some supplies for work and I need to run by Sally's Beauty Supply for a thing...

Saturday we are going to the flea market Sunday we are going up to the college to visit ods Monday dh is building a fence for the neighbors and I am cleaning

I started having contractions last night that were coming 10 minutes apart. That lasted for 4 hours, then they started coming about 6 minutes apart and increased in intensity. I waited those out for about 2 hours before deciding to go to the hospital because I'm a few days shy of completing...

But after 8 hours they gave me two shots to stop labor, and was successful-I am 33 weeks now and have to wait at least one more week before my little guy can make an appearance!I am excited though because now it looks like I am almost at the finish line, I will be holding my new son in a few...

:thud: This is the unofficial last weekend of summer here in New England. Most people are planning some sort of cookout for Monday, us included. I bought some southern ribs and chicken to toss on the grill. (Now if the rain will stop by tomorrow...) What plans, if any do you all have??? Just...

Special plans? Weather permitting we'll be up at the lake for the last hurrah of summer. Big bonfire (called the ring of fire) is a local tradition around Sacandaga Lake. Everyone has huge bonfires & sit around talking about the summer and watch fireworks along with seeing how many fires you an...

I am a Chemoangel and send cards to a woman receiving chemotherapy. For Christmas, I crocheted a prayer shawl for her. I also shared my email address with her so she could send me hers - I wanted to be able to email her cards and encouragement as well. Anyway, I got an email yesterday telling...

We're splurging on the gas to go to the lake for our last hoorah of summer. That means fires all around the lakes and putting all our toys away until next season. After this trip we will be staying home unless absolutely necessary. What are you doing?

Wasn't really sure where to post this but since it is saving me money I thought I would post this here. In the last three weeks I have taken my car in twice to be repaired and it has cost me almost $1,000. When coming home the other night from the fireworks my check engine light went on again...

How many of you had an epidural and was there any discomfort when you got it? Also did any of you have a catheter (sp?) when you had an epidural? Did this hurt? Thanks!
