Morning all you late sleepers.

I don't know what I am going to do today. I want to go out, so does my daughter, but where to go. I haven't walked this weekend. Tomorrow I will have to tie someone up to walk with me. It is going to be hot today, so really what is there to do? I don't have access to a pool or anything, so I am stuck. I will post later on and write what I did. Have a great day today.

Hey Cheryl -that's kind of where I'm at too.

What to do? Yesterday we went to the library and got a few books and they had kids books on CD so I grabbed two of those.

Then we started our picnics where we go outside and eat on a blanket but I cheated and got McDonald's.

The real plan is to make sandwiches and whatever so the kids will help prepare the picnic then go out and eat it.

Daughter said she needs carrot sticks so those are on my list.

I also want to get koolaid so they can make that.

It will be a change from the usual juice drinks they make and change is good.

That is always my big question though-what to do.

I think of a lot of things but it never seems like enough.

Then the other issue is always money and keeping it within budget.

I need to get more comfy asking for things.

I watch my husband blow wads at a time and my heart sinks because I feel like I'm working with nothing.

Hope you have a great day Cheryl.

Did you make it to the mall Cheryl?

I missed your update yesterday.

Good morning

I woke up early and finished my last assignment for this week. Good to have that out of the way.

I am also at a loss for what to do. I feel a little better than I have been lately, but I have no idea what to do with it. Nothing seems very interesting.

I'm slowly doing the cleaning and packing I need to do before I leave Wednesday... very slowly.

Oh Nancy I hope you make it in the pool too!

McDonalds was the easy way out.

I was really planning on also doing a trip to the store with 5 and 7 year old to buy boiled ham.

Then we were coming home to make sandwiches.

I was tired and dragging from library and Children's garden and daughter's tantrum.

She said McDonalds and I thought oh heck and I hit the drive thru just like that.

I was worn out.

Just laid around feeling as if I could fall asleep the rest of the day.

I hope your daughter starts feeling better.

And you don't have to make another trip.

Damsel I made it to the mall and after the initial panic I walked around with my daughter for almost 2 hours. Hubby sat down somewhere. Then I went to Bed Bath and Beyond looking for something they didn't have and then to World Market and bought some international food. I had a good day. Xanax always does the trick for me to get out long distances and once I am calm I usually don't panic again.

Nancy I am so sorry about your daughter. I took a CNA class and my instructor said the medical industry is all about business and that is the truth. It is not about caring for the patient , it is what kind of insurance they have and what does it cover. I hope she is okay today.

Cheryl.

Morning Kevin.

Sounds like we're all trying to figure out what to do today.

Damsel,

You are lucky your kids are small, they can entertain themselves with toys and playing in the yard. Wait until they are between the ages of 11 and 15. They can't drive, if there aren't other kids in your area their age, they are bored. That is where I am at right now. When we were teens we were never bored. Cheryl

Good morning Cheryl, Damsel, Kevin, Nancy!! I am most definitely not awake yet.

Cheryl I am in awe of you. 2 hours at the mall???????!!!! I hope you get out somewhere today.

Damsel.. when I read you went to the library I was surprised. People still do that??? I think that is wonderful! I haven't been to a library in a very long time, but I have recently been to a Barnes and Noble. I so wish I could sit there like everyone else and read and relax! One day...

Nancy I am sorry your daughter is still sick. I hope she gets well very soon and you make it to a pool cause it is hotttttttttttt.

Kevin! Glad you are starting to feel a bit better...put a smile on that face man! Go somewhere really cool.. I'm sure there is something that interests you..Google and go!
