The Prettiest in NeverNear
I wonder if they know how lucky they are.You do good Tiff...

I get it. Fortunately Alex was always vocal, but unintelligible. He took speech for several years and still has a speech impediment. His personality changed. He was always laughing, smiling, hugging, kissing, very very happy. No abnormal behaviors at all. Then all of a sudden he started screaming when you turned on the vacuum and became inconsolable if there was too much noise or you tried to pick him up. He didn't want to be touched, only on his terms. He quit making developmental progress. You know how parents celebrate all those little things like when their child learns to tie their shoes or ride a bike? We celebrated him tying his shoes when he was in 5th grade, and as hard as we tried he could never learn to ride a bike. He's had swim lessons four different times and can still only dog paddle. A lot of that is low muscle tone and lack of coordination that goes with the disorder. So, we celebrate the small things. Even with Morgan, although her developmental delays are not as severe as his, you celebrate the small things and know that as long as you try to teach them that is what counts. If they don't accomplish something you try to teach them, you can never say you didn't try. If you don't try at all, then you'll never know if it was attainable. Never sell them short. Give them every opportunity to learn and they will amaze you!!

Thanks Stretchy. I guess I am just tired of being yelled at to work faster. I'm working as fast as I can. Safety first, speed second.
This has to be the only business where people think you are a big manufacturing firm with no lives.I just don't understand why anyone would think that a bottle of juice is the pull off a shelf kind of thing.I do pull off the shelf in my business but even I couldn't do same day shipping.
When working with something as dangerous as Nicotine I want you to be methodical in what you ship to me. I for one am so grateful knowing you took extra care when working with it.

Thank you. Nothing makes me crabbier than someone adding the comment that their last few orders were super slow to get out the door. All orders in question had shipped next day. I'm not a freaking machine.

People suck and you weren't nearly scary enough given the circumstances.

I'll send you in next time. :laugh:


How's Grimm?

He's pretty good but a bit cranky and freaked out because he can't have his "binky" until his mouth heals. This ought to be fun. The one thing that he uses to self sooth he can't have, which makes him even crankier. Bleh. Has it been two weeks yet?

Now we get to take Simon in tomorrow to see if he has the same condition with his teeth since it could be genetic and they are related.

Hopefully the idgets that do that to you will think twice now. Either that or they will be forever missing out on the best juice ever!

Thanks! Odds are that he'll have a problem too. Not because of genetics, but because of Murphy's Law and the state of my checking account after all the recent vet visits. :laugh:

My newly dressed MVP. Had to buy a new one since the vamo didn't work out.
