Fanny | Tuesday, December 10, 2002 - 10:54 pm     1. I made turkey rice soup with half my leftover turkey carcass and will make another batch with the other half which will be mexican turkey soup, yum yum yum. |
Sage | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 01:22 am     1. My husband turned 49 yesterday. 2. I haven't read anything on the board for several days now, and am way behind on this thread. |
Twinkie | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 01:25 am     1.Today my DH was fired from his job of 6 years. 2.For 5 years he never had a single write-up. 3.For the past year he has had a female senior supervisor who has had it in for him from day 1. 4.Today was his 3rd and final write-up. 5.Today was also his 6 year anniversary with the company. 6.I am falling apart and hiding. 7.I have spent all day and night in bed. 8.This is how I deal with depression and stress. 9.I don't like letting friends know when I am having problems. 10.That's why I couldn't go into chat tonight. 11.I don't like to burden others with my problems. 12.We will now try to sell everything we own while DH looks for another job. 13.I feel so helpless. 14.Tomorrow....er today....we are going to sit down and form a game plan on what to do in what order. 15.At least we feel lucky that we have each other. |
Twinkie | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 03:32 am     I am sorry about the above. Maybe I should have put it in another thread. I am distraught. |
Teatime | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 03:42 am     ((Twinkie & her DH)) You have nothing to apologize for, Twinkie. That is a huge burden right now to keep inside. I think your #'s 14 and 15 speak volumes, and it's that positive and realistic attitude that will get you through this. I admire the strength and resolve you are already showing considering you just got the news yesterday. You come vent wherever and whenever you need to. |
Teatime | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 03:50 am     1. I haven't been called on to be strong very many times in my life. 2. I've always figured there was a reason for this, like maybe I couldn't handle it. 3. I am listening to 3 kids eat cereal right now while making poop jokes. (uggh, sorry) Typical morning for me. |
Nimtu | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 04:20 am     1. I haven't finished my first cup of coffee but I can't pass up getting in at number four. 2. {Twinkie and DH}I got fired once also and it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me, however, it is very hard on one's self-esteem initially, please go to chat and lean on your friends cause your dh is going to need to lean on you. 3. My christmas tree is up but we still haven't decorated and I am not even close to finished with shopping. 4. I hope Kady makes an A+ on her project..and I hope I make an A+ for the history paper for my little procrastinator |
Twinkie | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 04:24 am     Thank you so much Ms. Teatime. I think I'm still in shock and it helps to know there is someone who cares. |
Twinkie | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 04:36 am     Thank you, Nimtu. I will try to be strong for my DH. His hurt is almost more than I can bear though. We held each other a lot and cried alot. |
Jed245 | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 06:12 am     umm HI again everyone :o) 1. I realize that last time I posted I messed up the thread a little. 2. I'm sorry. 3. I almost never worry. 4. About the only real way to find my bad side is if you bother someone I care about. 5. I just realized that I'm the coolest person in my house right now... er then again I'm alone in the house right now, but, I don't think that matters .... ummm does it? :o) |
Heyltslori | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 06:18 am     Yeah, it matters. lol...j/k! You are WAY cool. |
Jed245 | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 06:34 am     hehe Thanks Lori :o) |
Cyn | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 10:02 am     1. I send prayers of protection for all the obstacles to be removed for Twinkie & DH. 2. Inside of here, is the only time that I have ever openly in a group discussed personal issues, and not platform issues. 3. I hope Twinkie continues to use this as her safe haven and lean on the members for support when needed. 4. My dog is looking out of the window at the street, then at me – walk time. 5. I am so tired. 6. I slept nine hours. |
Squaredsc | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 10:07 am     1. sending big hugs to (((teatime and d.h.))))). 2. we had freezing rain last nite and today. 3. i made it to work at 10:25. 4. i also had to drive my mother to work, she doesn't drive in any type of snow or ice. 5. i just had a great lunch with a co-worker. 6. i get to go to a meeting at 1:30 today, it gives me something to do. |
Squaredsc | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 10:08 am     7. oops i totally forgot that i had to do 7, the d.s.' schools were closed today to they get to stay home and watch cartoons. |
Squaredsc | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 10:10 am     da*n sorry i typed the wrong person and now i feel like an idiot. big hugs to (((((twinkie & d.h.)))). im sorry twinkie, thats what i get for being in a hurry. im an idiot.  |
Fanny | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 10:44 am     1. We are not idiots, Square/Fanny, just TVCHCHB's in a hurry. 2. Major support hugs to Twinkie & hubby. It will look better once the shock wears off. Do you want any of us to stalk his former supervisor? 3. I love the chatroom more than I can say. 4. There are some pretty darned clever people who frequent it. 5. If anyone were to see me sitting all alone in a room staring at a screen and having fits of laughter over the funny chat people, I would look like a crazy woman. 6. I still haven't started my Christmas shopping. 7. How am I stacking up against the TVCH procrastinators? 8. I am easy to buy Christmas presents for. 9. My boyfriend says this year he doesn't know what to get me because over the years he's equipped me pretty well with cool electronics stuff and I don't need any more. 10. I used to collect Waterford crystal but I stopped when it started coming out my ears, and I never even use the stuff for fear of breaking it. 11. I wonder when I will start getting nervous about not having started my Christmas shopping. 12. I wish we all lived close together so we could have a Christmas party and meet each other in person. xxooxxoo |
Wargod | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 10:58 am     1. Big hugs and prayers going out to Twinkie and hubby. 2. I have no clue what number we're on, LOL. 3. We can set a date and time to have a Christmas party in chat....wouldn't be the first party in there. 4. My dog jumped up on the front window and broke it last night. 5. It took an hour to clean up the glass and board up the window. 6. Harvey cut his foot. It took another hour to clean his paw up and get him bandaged up. 7. Hubby had to sit on him for me to do first aid. 8. I was proud of myself that I haven't forgotten how to do first aid....even if it was for my dog. 9. Harvey is loving the attention he is getting. The kids have taken turns sitting with him and petting him, and he hasn't had to get up for anything because they keep bringing his food and water to him. 10. It scared the crap out of me...he could have been hurt very badly, but thank God he wasn't. 11. I ran out of milk this morning and had to get up early to go to the store. 12. I finally found my watch yesterday (it's been missing for 6 months!) 13. The kids are getting along great today...sharing and playing nice together...though like Teatime I keep hearing them call each other "poopiehead." |
Schoolmarm | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 11:06 am     1. We are having nasty freezing rain/ice/slush. 2. Most schools are closed today, but not the university. 3. I gave two finals this morning...only one more left. 4. And 4 hours of piano competency hearings. 5. I called my three-year-old niece for her birthday last night. 6. I am currently reading the 4th Harry Potter book. 7. I didn't read the third one yet. 8. I had shooting pains between my shoulder and head through my ear last night...I thought that I was having a stroke. 9. I was probably just having hypocondria (or I slept funny)! 10. I need a nap. 11. I STILL have two bags of papers to grade. 12. I ate at the student cafeteria for lunch. 13. I am still alive despite that! 14. My students are all VERY needy right now. |
Fanny | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 11:18 am     Oops, I don't know why I thought I had to do 12 when I only had to do 8. Sorry bout that. War, your poor puppy! |
Squaredsc | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 11:37 am     1. big kisses to war's puppy. 2. schoolmarm you should read the 3rd before the 4th 'cause it intro's some very interesting people. 3. i love the harry potter series, and can't wait for the 5th book, but the author is too busy getting married and having more children, darn it. she is forgetting her fans. 4. can anyone tell that im impatient for the next harry potter book? 5. there are so many movies i want to see and harry potter 2 is one of them. 6. but its either buy xmas gifts or go to the movies. 7. i really want to see drumline when it comes out this weekend. 8. the guy who did the "whassup" commercials directed drumline. 9. i will continue my xmas shopping next weekend, not this weekend. 10. d.h.'s bday is next week, and i don't know what to get him. 11. i will probably have to dig out the uncomfortable jammies, lol. i did 11 to get the numbering back on track. fanny/square square/fanny can't number and can't remember who is who on this board. |
Fanny | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 11:43 am     I am glad my better half is on top of things here, lol. |
Sage | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 01:48 pm     1. I really love Blind Guardian. 2. I haven't done any christmas shopping. 3. Next week, Rich is off work and we'll do all the shopping then. 4. I didn't know that Marm and Spy are applying to a University in OR. 5. That would be cool if one or both of them moved to the west coast so I could see them more often. 6. I have done 3 oil paintings on canvas in the last week. 7. I paint with oils and acrylics and sometimes watercolors. 8. I have painted on rocks and canvas. 9. Our tree is partially decorated. 10. I'm still not in the mood for christmas. 11. I feel like Scrooge. 12. I am very excited about LOTR The Two Towers coming up soon. |
Twiggyish | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 02:14 pm     ((Twinkie)) |
Weenerlobo | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 - 03:21 pm     1. More bad news with our company today. 2. Thinking it'd be nice to be able to walk away from it and never look back. 3. That's never gonna happen. 4. My Christmas tree is up and I love looking at it. 5. It should be called a Snowman tree, because that's the only kind of ornaments on it. 6. I'm 75% done with my shopping and feeling pretty good about that. 7. Going to Jamaica in February, on the boss' tab, and can't wait to get to sunny skies and blue water. 8. I'm going to parasail (for the first time) 9. I know my sister-in-law is going to see The Two Towers next Weds. and I think I'll go with her. 10. D.h. won't be able to make it, but I'm thinking it will be easy to see it twice. 11. I like Viggo and that blond archer guy has caught my eye as well. 12. I've just discovered Buffy. 13. Oh great, I landed on 13 - but, I refuse to be superstitious. (well right now, anyway) |
