A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffee House 2512

I work at the health department 2 days a week. It was a year in January. The program is called Care Coordination For Children. I'm not sure how it's going to work because I don't speak fluent Spanish and have to get an interpreter help me all the time, but the higher ups think it will so we shall see.

What all did Teddy buy today?

2 days a week sounds good to me, Sheri.

Tina, sounds as if you both has a good time. It made me smile to read it.

I just got back home. As I was coming out of a store, my cousin stopped, said come with me to see my great niece. (she weighs a bit over 8 pounds & came home from the hospital on Monday.) It was a good time.

I must get supper started now--TTYAL

Well phooey. The post I wrote earlier didn't post.
Teddy got some plastic animals and a lap desk with markers, crayons and stickers. He got a workbook and a bath toy. He chose well and it was his shopping trip for this year.
I hope it works out that you can do this from home, Sheri.
Baby time is wonderful, Carol.

The not posting happens to me too, Tina--but oh well.

We just had a rain storm here. Rod cut grass tonight after we ate, so then I went out, swept the garage apron & the front porch. Then, I set all mu pots from the porch out into the yard so they would get the benefit of the rain that was to come. So far we have gotten 1 & 2/10 inches. My flowers & tomato plants are so very happy (I am sure).

Good for you, Carol. Your plants should be happy.

Thanks Tina !!

I am going to sleep now---Morning will come far too quickly...

Sweet Dreams everyone !!

I was too tired to go to bed. But I'm headed that way now.
Sweet dreams all.

Good morning. I am not sure what I'm going to do with this day. But I'll make something of it.
I hope everyone has a great one.

Good afternoon.

DH had family home on vacation so it has been a busy few days...they left this morning.

I am taking GG to visit her mom today, the are going to a festival...I'll just drop them off then head to the new place to start prep for painting the whole house this week.

Your day out sounds like it was fun for both you and Teddy, Tina.

Enjoy the rain Junie.

Bestofour, will you be working by computer or phone?

I am so glad you are back, Sunny. Take it easy on yourself with the painting.

Sunny, yes be careful in the prep work for the painting. BUT I am glad you are doing it before your DD moves in. That is ever so much easier.

Tina, I could not sleep either. I ended up being awake until 2 am Rod let me sleep until 8:20....

Today we are going to my great-niece's 8th birthday party. It is always a good time as we all get to visit with family.
(& we get to walk out & not clean up.)

I missed something. Sunny is your daughter moving in?

Our program is supposedly paperless so everything is put in a program that is on the computer. Paperless is really a joke though because we have this massive form that we fill out and then type everything we've written into the program. The program does allow other people to read the information but it's definitely not paperless. I also use the phone because I have to talk to my clients at least once a month.

It was 94° at 6:00.

I don't like my info on computers. There really isn't much I can do about it. But I don't like it. They are hacked too often.

I agree with you, Tina.


...I am soon off to sleep. Sweet Dreams everyone.

Sweet dreams, Carol. And I am off to bed myself.

Good morning. It's pretty hot out there. I believe I will stick to the house today as much as possible. There is nothing I need out in the world.

Good Morning. WE are not going to church, but there is a full day of running in store. We are making a Wal-Mart run for one thing.

It is raining. I am glad that I left my pots out in the yard. Today when the rain stops, I will put the pots in their places on the porch.

YAY for rain.

I am glad the rain is doing your watering for you. Enjoy your day, Carol.

Thanks Tina. I am glad too. When we got home, I was going to put the pots back on the porch--Rod said, well ya know it has not stopped raining yet---supposed to rain off & on until sometime on Tuesday, so I left them in the yard....

It was pay bill day here....

Well, phooey. That is not a fun thing to do>

No, it was NOT...but oh well it is done for a bit.

All of this rain is making my allergies kick up..That is a phooey !

Good night everyone. I am headed to sleep. Sweet Dreams from IL.

Wake without allergies, Carol.
I'm heading to my bed myself. Sweet dreams all.

Good morning.

Sheri, DD is moving to a house from an apartment.

I went to clean...the house is so dirty that I cleaned the kids rooms to prep them for painting then sat there and cried. I called my daughter and told her once again that she had no business signing a lease to take the place as is....and that she can clean it herself.

I'll help her paint but that is it. She is going to learn a lesson the hard way. She has two weeks to houseclean the whole house, paint it fully from top to bottom...pack and move there, then clean the apartment where she is from top to bottom. Did I mention that she is lazy as sin? I am fed up.

I am glad that you are getting rain Junie, how did the b-day party go?

Tina, I hope you are spared from the terrible mess...the news stated that the Cali fires jumped a fire line.

Good morning. The fires that you may be seeing are not in my area, Sunny. The one that was closest has been put to rest with no buildings destroyed. The current fires are all north of me. And I feel for them very much.
I think I'll go out today for a few items. We need some milk and things around here.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Sunny. I am so sorry. I hope that everything works out for your DD. And of course for you.

Tina. So glad to hear that the fires are not so near you. I had heard that 10 houses were destroyed by fire out your way. So VERY glad that that is not in your area.

The party was nice. Thankfully it was not so warm that we could not site outside. Rod asked me why I did not get into the pool. I pointed out hat I had no suit. I missed my girls and their families. Valarie was planning on coming, but they had a family wedding to go that night and school begins today. But the rest of my family was there all but Brandon, so it was nice to see everyone.

so far today it has rained another 1 & 2/10 inch of rain & it shows no sign of stopping.
Good news is the high today is supposed to be 75.

I wish you all a great day.

OK I just emptied the rain gauge. There was 3 inches of rain & it was just beginning to let up some---it has stopped for now & I think there is another 1/10.

Great news..not...Rod is home. It seems the rain messed up some equipment at work & everyone was sent home.
Bless the Lord, I was putting supper in the crock pot so that went well---BUT then he says what is the stew for. when said lunch, he said well I will eat my food from work then for my lunch. SMH The boy is going to want me to cook 3 meals a day when he retires---you know, when I am that old myself ?

oh well....

Carry on everyone

OK..My post is missing also..

I cleaned my front door then filled a 7 gallon bucket full of weeds. Came in finished supper & that is cleaned up.

I am on my way back out to weed some more. Catch you all later.

Sunny, I hope things work out for you and your daughter. I still remember a house my family moved in to one time because it was filthy. My mother made us clean for weeks. I don't know why my parents bought that house the way it was.

Sheri, perhaps your parents got a good deal on it, since it needed cleaned so.

When I went out to weed it was raining again, so I came in & stayed in. Then I just about fell asleep at 8 pm But knew I should not go to sleep that early. Tthen by 9 I was wide awake...I think I can soon go to bed now & sleep.(11:13)

nite nite everyone

Sweet dreams all. I am going to find my pillows.

Good morning. I'm up but I may go back to bed for a bit. I don't know yet.

Good morning.

I am going to pick up my grandson...he will be here for 3 days while DD cleans her new place

I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get this laptop fixed so I can work from home. Union County's entire IT department is made up of people like me, no professional computer training at home or on the job learners, who have been hired to run the IT department. That's why we're in such a mess.

So hot and humid here. It doesn't get below 88 at night even.

It often gets cool at night here. It saves me. At least my sanity.

There is a fire near me. If I don't post again tonight, I've either evacuated or just lost electricity.
http://www.sbsun.com/general-news/2...ajon-pass-is-burning-near-the-15-freeway
I am near the left of the blue marking (i15) the first bare looking spot by the tracks. An inch or so down from the fire.

OH MY Tina, thanks so much for letting us know.

Prayers to you and to yours. Stay safe. Please get back to us when you can.

I'm watching it. It moved a little closer but they are back on it with water dropping helicopters and such
I have high hopes for a quick fix but that's not happening yet.

Thanks for the link. I will be watching. Take care.

Oh my Tina, so stay safe.. hope the water drops work and knock it out soon, we are getting a little rain tonit.. sprinkles but hasn't stopped so its good... first rain of any in over a month... have the water bill to prove it too..

Made chicken fried steak, mashed taters , gravy and peas.. green salad too... just felt like cooking today...

Our first day of school is tomorrow for Nicoli and I, hopefully he is cooperative and wants to just get it done... hubby checked out the best place to drop of and pick up Timothy at the highschool too...his first day is Thurs.. then Derek starts Fri... Timothy is working on getting his driving permit...next year he can drive himself and Derek .... weren't they just toddlers?

Well got to hit the shower and clean up my kitchen...it's actually cool here tonit... feels good... crickets are going crazy too... Sunny hope your Dd gets the cleaning done , sometimes it's better to stand back and let them dig out of the hole they dug themselves ..I know it's hard to do... hard on Moms too ,to let them but eventually they will learn..... eventually..........

Have a good evening all..

Nana
