It is so frustrating to me that she insists on looking like a grub while we wear nice decent clothes. It makes us look bad like we cant take care of her.

The party only added 1.4lbs so that wasnt too bad.

Hi...Pear!!!! Glad to see ya' back!!!!!

Maybe try reverse psychology.

One of my friends can not stand how one of her daughters wants to dress. The daughter likes the short, tight, clingy shirts that are in right now. My friend went in the daughter's closet, put on one of these tight, short, clingy shirts...went out by the daughter (the daughter wanted to go somewhere)...and said, "Okay....I'm ready to go!!!" The daughter laughed, and said, "You're going like THAT?" My friend said, "Why not? That's how you go around to places." The daughter said, "I'm not going anywhere with you like that." My friend said, "Good. Now, YOU see how I feel. Go change YOUR shirt, and then, we'll go."

Why do you have to keep them seperated if they are both boys?

[*Pear*]

Usually one goes downstairs with DD and the other upstairs with us. Problem is DD & DH have to work, so it will be hard to separate them.

Good idea on the reverse psychology. I'll have to try that next time we go out together and she's all slobbed out.

Do they fight? Why do you need to separate them?

Well..... I'll check in later. I need to work on some school stuff for awhile.

[*Pear*]

No, Andy puts his arm around AJ and makes "motions" and well, you know...

Ohhhh......I get it....Andy is bi-sexual, and AJ isn't!!!!




By the way....nice apple hat...Pear!!!!

[Lost and Found]

I hope that Jean had a nice brunch, and is having a relaxing day...

AND...Tooter....she must REALLY be enjoying herself!!!! Hippie too!!!!

[*Pear*]

Thank you, I have a pear hat too.

AJ has his girlfriend pillow, and Andy has AJ Yorkies are so funny...

[*Pear*]

Mmm, wonder when Hippie will make a reappearance... She must be really "busy" lately.

[*Pear*]

I vacuumed out DD's room... whew! I hung up her clothes and straightened out some, and left her piles of "stuff". It looks much better. I'll bet she's mad I messed with her stuff.

She has a paper to do tonight after work, she'll have a late night.

Isn't it funny how kids go through all of their little stages. First they like us Moms to do everything for them. Then, they like to play their "I am a person with rights" act....and....we're not supposed to touch their stuff cluttering up "our" homes. Kids...

I know the feeling. I'm working on my History paper right now too. It's due by midnight. I have another 200 words, or so, to go. Hey!!!! Atleast your daughter didn't need to touch "her" own things in her room...you lightened her load!!!!

Tooter must be "busy" too!!!!

[*Pear*]

I'd be busy too but hubby has left for work.

I cant wait for night shift to be over. I dont know when this project is done. Hubby had to cancel his superbowl party because he wouldn't have enough time to sleep. He has such little personal time lately.

[Lost and Found]

There!!!! Done with my paper with 45 minutes to spare!!!!

[*Pear*]

Woohoo, good going girl!

[Lost and Found]

What time does your daughter get home from work, and when is her paper due by?

[Lost and Found]

I wonder if we are using the same books, and if she needs to write a paper on the same chapter as me? *Clicks wheels are turning*

[Lost and Found]

Well...goodnight...Pear!!!

Sleep well, and I'll talk with you tomorrow.

[*Pear*]

She should be home soon.

[*Pear*]

I'm not sure when her paper is due, she just said she had to work on it tonight.

I also have no clue what book she is using.

[*Pear*]

I dont know much, eh?

Goodnight Click.

I'm English, and have always lived in England, with two English parents - just brief visits to other countries for holidays.

We now have a front loader and we dont need the centrifuge much anymore, but when I need it I'm glad to have it.

They were really popular in europe.

I used to have a spin dryer too, but that was 25 years ago, when I was first setting up house, and they were considered old fashioned even then. I haven't seen one since then. They were useful sometimes, though. I remember digging it out when the spinner on my washing machine wasn't working properly.

Good morning, Ailuros!!!!

I'm going to be one tired lady today. I don't know why, but I could not sleep last night. Here it is 5 in the morning, and I'v
