Copper Creek Chit Chat, Part #4

[Bamrz]

It's in the 60's today, and will be for most of the week. Should have closed the stores and took off. Drats. Instead we are trying to get our winter preps done.

Bamrz, we need pics when it arrives!!!!

Drott, my polish are giving up 1 egg per day from 6 hens. Ducks = 0. Why do we keep doing this?

Yup, I'm going to try to do a "family pic" with my BB's.

Today was gray and dreary, but it's supposed to be around 75 on Wednesday, go figure?

It's supposed to be cloudy tomorrow with showers in the evening. Dreary off and on for the next few days. I have the hardest time seeing at night. Add rain to the mix and I drive like an 80 year old.

Weigh in went great considering I went on a nutella frenzy last week. I still lost 1.8 pounds. I think I'm 6.8 pounds to go tp goal. I know, I've changed the goal twice now. As much as I've lost the dang charts say I'm still overweight. So I want to get 1 pound below the high end of what the charts say. Then it will be learning how to maintain. I can't let myself get like that again. I feel so much better and I'm so excited that I can cross my legs when I sit down.

I'm having a hard time with it getting dark so darn early. blech. And Victor is complaining that it's dinner time an hour early. You'd think he was going to starve to death.

Looking forward to the family pic Bamrz!

 

[Bamrz]

Tiff, I liked that one for the Nutella frenzy!

Yup, same here FV, the cats think dinner is an hour earlier. I actually gave in tonight because Mondays I get home from work an hour earlier than they are used to. I think Xena would eat whenever food is within her reach.

 

[tlmoody27]

Tiff, I liked that one for the Nutella frenzy!

Yep, nutella and raisins. And if wouldn't be so bad if I could remember it and enjoy that nutella. I'm having some issues with sleep walking and for some reason I go straight to the kitchen. What made me recall it was that I had nutella all over my shirt. I mean all over. I'm thinking that most of it got on me and not in me.

Same here with the girls

 

[Drottwiler]

Roosters still here. Grrrr the guy had to work late. So now tonight at 5:30. Have 2 others interested. Shoud have never said I'd hold for him. Last time I had free chickens they went within a 1/2 hour.

Good morning. I just got home from dropping Alex off with his ride to the vocational rehab working eval. The first day of drop off went fantastic! Now hoping for a good day there for him. I pick him up at 4.

I'm heading out to my primary care doc today. Probably another uti. This sucker just won't go away.

Hope everyone's day goes well!!

 

[FlyingV]

Liked that because Alex went without a stink. Not for the other part.

Drott, is the rooster gone?

And Victor thinks breakfast is supposed to be served an hour early. ugh. I'm giving in by 1/2 hour so I don't have to listen to him moan in agony as long.

Good morning!

 

[tlmoody27]

Good morning!

I'm so proud of him! Please, please, please let it go this well for the next two weeks.

 

[FlyingV]

*fingers crossed*

 

[tlmoody27]

I'm back home. No word from Alex which is a good thing because that means he is not complaining about it. I know he'll be spent by the time he gets home.

Hubby rearranged his trip because of rain and his uncle canceled on him. Now he's leaving tomorrow morning to go hunt instead of fish. He'll be back Friday early afternoon. That I don't mind so much. He'll work two more 48 hour shifts and then he'll be off for 2 weeks. We're going on our mini trip on the 13th.

I'm going to catch hill when Morgan gets home from school. I embarrassed her at the bus stop this morning. She was still waiting for the bus and a few kids were standing with her at the bus stop when I rode by to take Alex to meet his ride. I slowed down a good bit, rolled down my window, and shouted "bye Morgan, love you" while excitedly waving to her. The look on her face was priceless.

Definite UTI says the doctor so going on antibiotics. Bactrim for the pain. That about does it here. Hope everyone's day is going good.

 

[FlyingV]

OMG Tiff, what were you thinking?

 

[tlmoody27]

OMG Tiff, what were you thinking?

I was thinking 'this should embarrass her". Yep, I did it on purpose.

 

[tlmoody27]

Why oh why do girls produce so much drama. All the he said, she said conflicts are starting. I actually just had Morgan's friend from school call me personally to talk about Morgan. She said her mom wants to talk to me and morgan as well. I told her we would speak with Morgan and I'd be happy to speak with her mom but that we will take care of Morgan on this end and they did not need to speak with her, just me. I think after an hour of dramatics it is worked out. Never did speak with the girl's parents but I could hear every word of the convo between Morgan and her and it was strange, just strange. Basically what it boiled down to is that someone said one of them said something about the other one. The middle person said the same thing to the other girl. Both girls now think that the other one is talking crud about her. Like I said, I went through this once in 1990 when I was a teen. Have no desire to go through it again.

 

[FlyingV]

Sit the two of them down face to face. Not the phone thing, in person.

 

[FlyingV]

I think it's time for me to go home. I'm tired. *poof*

 

[tlmoody27]

The guidance counselor sat down the the two of them today and got no where undoubtedly. Seems like they would call me to let6 me know about it. Nope, no call about it. I'll be sure to address that in the morning. If they have any contact with Morgan out of the normal teacher student interactions then I need to know about it. Now I've got two teen age girls saying this one said that and so forth. I think they have it worked out for now. Who knows. I better not hear from this girls parents. The kids need to learn to work these things out on their own with some intervention when necessary. I will not have a conversation blasting my kid when I heard the whole convo when Morgan called her. The girl sounds like there may be some additional issues going on. So does Morgan but I think it is my place to talk to her, not the other girls parents.

Dinner in the oven. Chicken breasts with some sort of seasoning that hubby put on it. I'll eat a bit of that but will stick closely to the brussel sprouts. I swear I crave those thhngs.

 

[tlmoody27]

Everything went GREAT for Alex today!! No complaints, no refusing to go back, no bad stuff said. One day down, 7 to go.
