    It is 2:42pm...have you seen my cleaning lady?  Grrr....I would have taken a nap had I known she STILL wouldn't be here.

    When was she supposed to be there? When she first started we agreed on 10..............last week it was 11 before she showed. 

    She just comes after she finishes at H's.  It had been around 1:00 and then moved closer to 2:00.  I kind of hope she just doesn't show up now-I really don't want her to still be here at 6:00!

    I have no idea what time she gets to my house since I am not home when she comes.  He did tell me she replaced her car, so that shouldn't be the issue.

    Yep-I was assured the same thing.

    Gotcha - My thing is just that I need her to be done before the kids are home at 2pm. I'm dreading summer!

  • Aaaaaand....she just got here.  Lovely.

     

    ETA: She has to do something with her car.  She is coming Wednesday.  I do not understand why she just doesn't call.

    She didn't do my house today.  The scheduling got all screwed up, so we are on opposite weeks now.  

     

  • Ugh.  I have no idea when she usually gets to my place since I'm not home.

    My mom just texted me and asked for a:

    "vodka carmel valium mocha latte"

    And then to bring the tequila.

    My poor mom.  My grandma is making her absolutely crazy.   Sad

    You know. I just found out that there is a Patron that is coffee flavored  ;)   

    What would you chase that with?

    People who think Patron is a "sipping tequila" have obviously never had true "sipping tequila".  Patron needs a chaser, I'm partial to pineapple juice.

    not sure what I would chase it with...  might have to do some research.  Tho I wonder if you could hide it in the coffee....   make that Mocha so much better on a day like I am having...

    My dad and stepmom have it and say it's delicious in coffee.

    LOL  I will have to get some for my mom.. she's a wildwoman when it comes to spiked coffee!   Heck, she's wild on anyting alcoholic...  should have seen her at my PC show on saturday!  She made "slush".   it' was good!  LOL

  • I havent slept since 8 am Sunday morning. Im exhausted but I can't go to sleep because A is sleeping on me. I have to put her in the basinette if I want to sleep and if I put her in there she will cry. I'm so tired, someone entertain and distract me.

    try searching comedians on youtube. tommy tiernan is great, craig ferguson, christopher titus, etc. If you're in the hospital worried about people tv shows are too long probably to distract you, but short clips of crap on youtube can keep you busy for a while. hugs and T&P to you!

  • There is a house that looks like, from the pictures and description, it could be perfect for us.  We go to Austin on Saturday to look and finalize our housing options and I'm DYING.  I'm going to be so sad if someone takes "our" house.

    It's a 4/2.  And has a neighborhood playground.  And is 1/2 mile from each of our friends!  And one bedroom is even yellow (like the girls' room) and the other is blue -- for our boy!  And one of the bedrooms is perfect for an office.

    Nestie vibes?  Prayers.  Boy I wish I could have a glass of wine.

  • I saw a bumper sticker today that said "STOP the TTC" and I thought someone must be really against over-population or something.  

    Then I Googled and realized TTC meant Trans Texas Corridor.

    We had the same thing happen several times over.  But it worked out, we found a house that we're super excited about.

    But, as I'm sitting here adding up the square footage that needs new floors immediately & figuring out everything else that needs to be done, I am starting to feel a little bit like Shelley Long:

  • I'm watching that show one born every minute, this lady is having twins (her 3rd and 4th kid) and she's giving them up for adoption. She gave away her first too. I think it's an amazing thing to do, but she's giving the twins to two different families! does anyone else think that's odd? imagine growing up and finding out you have a twin somewhere? does anyone know if that's normally done?

    ok it seems I was wrong. I can't figure it out, they said "are they going to the same parents?" "no" "so you'll make two families happy." But in the end one family got both babies thank god, I thought that was pretty horrible to split them up!

    I was watching that too...and thought that was so sad to spearate the twins.  But never got back to watch what happened, so I'm glad to hear they were kept together.  

    Interesting discussion, though: WWYD, make 2 families happy by splitting up siblings/twins or keep them together and have one family childless?

    I don't think you should seperate twins, the childless family would remain on the list and have another chance. I cried watching the adoptive parents get them. the mom couldn't stop crying and giggling at the same time.
