A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffeehouse 2554 here is one more !

Good morning. It's going to be hot again.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday.

Rest up Tina.

Will Rod be attending as well Junie?

I did a bit of weeding but the flies and heat chased me back inside.

Yes we both went. It was a nice time indeed.

Then we took the kids to their house and kept them so Val & Brian could help their in-laws - parents clean up from the party !

Going to sleep now...sweet dreams to you all .

Sweet dreams, Carol. It sounds like a good time today.

It is a provincial(Civic)holiday here...and it's going to be another hot one. It is supposed to reach 100 today with 5 days of thunderstorms ahead. I am so thankful we have a generator now...I am sure we will be needing it this week.

I hope everyone has a nice week ahead.

Good Morning.

I slept in today...which is good as tomorrow the girls will be here ready to eat at around 7 .

Henry has 2 half days of preschool to get him used to the idea. Val is staying t school because by the time she would drive home she would be home a very short time and then she would have to drive back to get him. Give her more time to.prepare for the upcoming school year anyway.

Sunny, I hope they are mistaken about the storms...But also glad that you have a generator.

I wish you all a wonderful momday.

Are you prepared for that full Grandma duty? 3 at a time is a lot.

I am...I have been occasionally doing all 4 at once...But at their house. That is another reason why 2 half days will be good. They can adjust to this house and Papaw & I both.

I really need to go to Kohl's and buy some room darkening curtains for their room...But then I guess I could buy them online...

Hello. I hope you had fun with the grands today, Carol.
Teddy had an appointment first thing this morning. So we got that done and are home for the day. After getting lunch out.

Missouri

Sorry to confuse.//I unpacked today--all day---The kids will be here the next 3 days...Tuesday & Wednesday are half days Thursday Henry will be here as well as the girls.

Thursday is the first day of school for Valarie as a teacher. Kids start next week,,on Thursday I believe, This Tuesday & Wednesday is so Henry can get used to the idea of Preschool. Gonna have to leave the doors open to the Sun room so it is cooler....
(Sun room is where all the toys are at)

Ok, I hope you have fun the next three days. The confusion is probably my fault, not being able to keep up.

Tina that is nice for you to say but Ia m betting it is me knowing waht is going on & as a result not really explaining it well...

glad that you guys got lunch out...I just love it when someone else cleans up after a meal.....

And cooks it too!

VERY TRUE !!!! (but I really like the second part best.

Tina I hope you get a good night's sleep. G'nite & sweet dreams.

Sweet dreams, Carol.

Thanks, Tina....

We are up and drinking our coffee. Here in a few I will start making breakfast. It seems the kids are used to their other Grandma making breakfast every morning. So Rod lucks out...I will be making a hot breakfast 2 days a week. 3 this week.

Can I come for breakfast?
Good morning. I actually have a mess of eggs to deal with. My neighbor brought me a bunch to deal with. I foresee some breakfast burritos and things in my future.
Have a great Tuesday.

I"m at Colt"s. Ging and Chris worked at the school yesterday and had open house last night and they"re back at the school today. Colt starts Thursday. I love this house. It was built in 1923, has high ceilings, and a wrap around porch with brick columns, and wide sidewalks everywhere. It"s in the historic district and some of these houses are plantation houses and beautiful. The little town is like Mayberry. It"s for sale but I"ll be surprised if they buy it. A boy Colt"s age lives across the street and twin boys his age live around the corner. They"re here now.

Good luck Carol. Once you and the children get in a pattern things will be fun. By the way Colt had macaroni for breakfast.🍲

Mac for breakfast is good, Sheri. Teddy just had an egg sandwich.

Macaroni...hey, another option. I must make scrambled eggs different than the other Grandparents or mom...they hardly ate any...Heidi did scarf up her bacon when I started to take away her plate though. They will have scrambled eggs as their protein for lunch though.... This morning when Cora needed a diaper change, she was cranky so Heidi have her her Paci......well the rule is if you leave the bedroom the pack stays...she would not throw it in the crib so she had to go in the crib. Seeing she got her pack the other 2 eventually wanted in their beds. So now all 3 are sleeping. Oh well, I got my dishes done this way...But it is gonna be a long afternoon for Mom...

Paci's for bedtime only...my grands would have never left their rooms

I see everyone is having grandparent time...well almost. Maybe we need to share with Tina.

GG turns 8 tomorrow..we will have just a small immediate family supper/party tomorrow then take her for an outing this weekend.

French toast was my favorite way to get egg protein into my kids when they were little. With a bit of vanilla mixed into the eggs.

Thanks, Tina.. I have just been "hired" for the rest of the week. It seems the MIL said " her I did not think you were starting school for another week...

So you have them for four days instead of three? Had you planned a trip north that needs changing?

Yes but Rod wanted to go alone anyway, so now he gets his way..not to.mention of it rains he will not go on Friday anyway..

There is a family birthday party anyway..Val and I will take the kids.

Going to sleep early. Hopefully the extra sleep will help me recover faster.

Sweet Dreams everyone !

Sweet dreams, Carol. You have it all figured out.

Hi all..another hot day ahead. GG turns 8 today.

Good Morning!

Happy Birthday to your GG, Sunny. Sorry for the hot day.

I need to take some tylenol. I can get thru the day then. Plus The coffee just finished brewing ! Yay for coffee!

Good morning.
Yay for coffe. Happy birthday GG.
Have a wonderful Wednesday.

Thanks for the birthday wishes for GG.

I despise our local grocery store. I ordered her cake a week ahead, called yesterday to remind them. I went to pick it up today....no cake made. Then they wanted me to buy a pre-made sheet cake for $25 more. Needless to say, by the time I was done....I got the sheet cake for $10(the price of the 8 inch round) that I had ordered. I hope it tastes o.k. They come frozen from the factory with a whipped cream icing....they thaw them in store.

I have the worst luck when it comes to getting things done for celebrations.

Oh, I'm sorry, Sunny. That stinks. I hope it all works out well for you.

Oh my, sO am so sorry.

..on one hand a cake is a cake, but on the other if you order one thing, I understand how you want to get what you expected to get.

Sunny what was the reason your cake wasn't made? Bad bad bad customer service.

Anyone shop at Kohls? I've bought several things there and last week I received a 20% off coupon in the mail and I had $5.00 Kohls cash and there was a coupon for free shipping online. So I ordered 2 dresses which are too big. (sizes are so strange nowadays) I was going to re-order the same thing in another size but was told I've already used my 20% coupon and can't get it back and the free shipping coupon isn't valid anymore. Guess I'm done with Kohls.

Yes, I don't care for Kohls either. I don't like the games.

I like Kohl's but then I usually shop there in person.

Going to sleep now...I have a full day tomorrow with the 3 girls and their brother. Good thing I am feeling some better.

Sweet Dreams.

Sweet dreams, Carol.

Good morning. I'm off and running. I hope for a wonder Thursday for all.

Hi all.

Sheri, the cake wasn't made because 'she forgot'...why have a board with each day's order on then?? The cake was good so it was o.k. in the end. Mind you, I will never order a cake from there ever again.

DH clicked on something today and this computer went haywire...it took me hours to quarantine whatever it was. It hijacked my browser. I lost my google home page though and now have Firefox. I ended up losing all bookmarks and such with the change over.

Oh, I am sorry, Sunny. that's hard.h t
It's 95*out right now with under and dark clouds moving in. The humidity is under 9%. It's going to get messy.
