Anyone hanging around tonight? I have wine, and my PJ's, and cozy socks, and my couch. I love Fridays!
Re: Harro
that must have been one helluva shot! Poor Riley
Hola Fallin!
Pffft, only losers work on Friday evenings. (I'm working as we speak)
Hey Noisy, while you're here...how hard would it be for me to make one of these? Please take into consideration my sewing skills are approximately zero. Possibly even less than that, if that's even imaginable.

Hi. I miss you. I want you to know that every time I am running and Imma Be comes up on my playlist, I picture you dancing and it makes me giggle. It's a huge pick me up.
I just put Connor to bed. The kid is getting crafty at prolonging bedtime by telling me he wants to read the bedtime story to me after I read it to him (his rendition is typically pretty adorable and hilarious so he wins).
Hello there.
We just watched Black Swan and I wish I had those 2 hours back. What a shiitty movie.
I have something almost identical to that lap pad in my classroom, and I use it all day every day for one student. I have a thick piece of ribbon wrapped around it with velcro and I switch out various toys for her to manipulate on her lap while she has to be confined to her wheelchair for tubefeedings and whatnot. Her motor skills and hand grasp have grown in leaps and bounds because of it, it's truly amazing. The one I have is actually divided into 3 sections.
Anyhooo...I need another one for a second student I have with the same situation, to see if I can get him interested in using his hands more. I was trying to decide if it'd be easier/cheaper to just order one already made or attempt to make one myself.
My life is hard, yo
Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
Sleep is one of my most favoritest things in the whole world. I still wake up at my normal weekday time even on the weekends, but it's the most awesome feeling when I realize it's Saturday or Sunday and I roll back over and sleep for 3-4 more hours. Enjoy your Tylenol PM slumber!
I just typed out a really long response and deleted it because it was too full of suck.
Shamwow, love, do we have official March dates for NOLA yet?
Um, hi. Me?
You realize this would be a tiny GTG, right? Don't toy with my emotions Fallin
Tiny is my cup of tea. It would depend on a number of things, but I'd love to if I'm welcome and can.
I may be hyperventilating
Eh. The short version goes as follows:
I went to visit my grandmother today. She's doing well, but my aunt and uncle pulled me to the side to tell me their plans to try to convince my grandparents to sell and get a smaller house. My grandad cried when he thanked me for coming. Then, my dad told me some more depressing stuff about my mom. Then, we got a call from MIL about making hospice plans for FIL, so I am currently drinking wine and pretending that I'm 14 and not required to be responsible for anyone else.
I feel like I'm never anything but a debbie downer 'round these parts anymore.
That is a lot of suck. Hugs for you.
Yay!
I'm absolutely seething with jealousy at the shamwow/Buddha/fallin meetup.
Im sorry you got so much bad news at once Buddha, but really you aren't responsible for any of those things/people. I know it's hard to remind yourself of that, but you really aren't. They affect you and you care about the effect these decisions have on people you love, but it really isn't on your shoulders. I offer my Internet hugs too, lady.
Aw, Buddha, I'm sorry. That is a lot of suck.
I woke up today with a broken furnace. That was fun to get taken care of. I may or may not have called my mommy to come hold my hand while I figured it out. And then figured it out while she was on her way here.

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
