Hi Sunny and Nio,

How we go from health issues to OW/OC. I guess we sort of blame OW. Sorry. Oh Sunny my OC is due Sept. 15th. Seems like an eternity of stress waiting for that date. Since OW is crack addict, OC will probably be a premie. Government will probably foot the bill. OW has no job and goes to health dept. WH has no job. Go figure why he isn't living with her.

I GET that he's eternally sorry for everything - I don't get that from her.

His apologies, and making sure I take my meds, and being there to try to pick up the pieces that was me before this makes all the difference.

BTW: My tum IS bad today. I've been taking the meds, but it started hurting last night...I'm so glad my boss is gone - I'm laying on the floor here only checking my mail and the posts and answering the phone.

I can tell you are a bit under the weather today because your post didn't cause me to LMAO <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Love the humor we had on the magic post and yes this all went from health to OW because they aren't sorry and they had a choice not to get pregnant but you know they all think it is a surefire way to keep H. I think tart may be too nice (WCW) that's mine.

Hi Kimmy,

It is so great when the boss is gone. I did not know you worked. Last year I requested a 4 day week. I do not care about less money. I will adjust. My family is more important. They did not respond last year. I have requested it again. If they do not give into me, I will look for a 4 day job so I can have time for my family and me.

Oh Genia. This job...oy. This job is a GODSEND. Literally. I applied for it on Monster.com in my pjs (really and truly). Got the call for an interview - then BAM! D-day. No sh*t. I still made it to the interview, totally blew the boss man away (he said he'd NEVER thought he'd hire someone on the spot - and he told me as he showed me to the elevator I got the job). It's as cushy as can be - top paying for my field (administrative), and I get to go online and play all the frickin time and he doesn't care.... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> My boss knows about it all - his wife is a DARLING (and a massage therapist - can you say GODSEND yet again). He tells me all the time that family comes first and take any time I need for them and me....A lot of bosses talk the familia talk, but this one walks the walk, too! I am ever so thankful.

BTW: Notice the use of frickin lately? I watched Austin Powers for the first time...UM HELLO? I guess I must've been in lala land, but no one told me it was TOTALLY UNSUITABLE for youn'uns. And what's up with poor Mr. Bigglesworth? Poor cat looked like he was on chemo.....

Health issues to OW? Ok lets see because of her and H I am now in Adivan, which is like a code 4 drug? For the panic attacks, Thats what the DR calls them. I call then my I'm so tired of all the sh@t pills. If I took them like he said then I would be a vombie. But only take them when I feel it coming on. And I do take wellbrutryn II I have to quit smoking and so I take that. It helps with the anger stuff too. Still haven't quit smoking yet. I quit for 3 years and filed for D and picked up a pack that day and so on. Oh and I have a bad lung. My doc said she would just give a gun and I could get it over LOL. Its really not funny. Its a brain thing. I go for days with out one and then something will p me off and I start back. (Plus if I wasn't smoking I would have to take more meds). I have made my mind up that I will quit on July 1st. I will leave and wont be around all of the [censored] and maybe I can stick with it. So everyone be praying that they just make me sick !!! Oh back to OW, if they where not in our lives all of us would be healthier! And stress levels would be down, therefore less meds. So can I sue for distress? LOL No just kidding I chose to be here so I guess its me that made me sick? OH well gettin too deep gotta go.

Hi Kimmie,

I laughed to seeing you on the floor. Sorry for your pain, but I think your boss might have laughed if he saw you on the floor. My job is great too. I am a Reimbursement Assistant. I do cost reports for Medicare and Medicaid. We are in the slow season. I have days when I have nothing to do. It is just the commute I hate. I am taking off tommorrow to go to the water park. So you will not hear from me tommorrow. Oh! Could you send your bosses wife over here please. I could use a good massage. Just Kidding. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Hi Albany,

LMAO, I like it WCW. So true.

Hi Sunny,

We must've all posted at the same time. You got me laughing too at what OW does to us. Not funny, but the way you put it is funny.

I hope you can kick the smoking habit. I wish you luck. I am not a smoker but I know how hard it is to kick that habit by seeing others try.

Oh and the ciggies - they are so bad, but every now and then I HAVE to have one. I hope your trip with dd helps you to kick 'em. They are so 'spensive now, anyway. I wanna buy a pack, and then think, heck I can get a 12 pack of Diet Cherry Coke for that and have money left over to get some peanut M&Ms or Jelly Bellys (my favs - not exactly low carb, tho - still better than ciggies, imo).

I want some homemade salsa--I also want to buy a used BMW out of Texas and fly down and drive it home--not sure that is in my cards now with CS happening probably if H and I stay together--which <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> is looking good as you can see from my posts.

You so crack me up--I would love to live in Texas or Arizona someday.

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I want some homemade salsa </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I could give you the recipe - but you'd need about 120 'maters, a whole head of garlic, 7 chopped onions, some cumin, about 18 - 20 jalapenos (pronounced by me as jal-a-peg-nose)salt and a big ole non-reactive stock pot to cook it in. The you need about 12 quart mason jars and a whole nother pot to boil the filled jars in so they'll seal. Does that help? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> You so crack me up--I would love to live in Texas or Arizona someday.
</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Cool. When you and dh get your camper, you can move down here and live with the winter Texans (the old farts that come here in the winter to die - I kid you not - this is Old People Burial Grounds). There are five bagillion camp places in our town.

Then we can become junior members of the Red Hat Society and meet and gossip with the ladies every Saturday afternoon. I say junior members because you've got a ways to go to be 40, while I've only got 4 years (gasp) - but we'll never be old because we'll go shopping downtown and "taste" the homemade fudge down there at least once a week - everyone knows it's chocolate that keeps you young.

And dh's will be happy because everyone knows our town's slogan is "a quaint little drinking village with a fishing problem."

I've been thinking about Steel Magnolias lately. Okay. So I get some of my BEST lines from that movie...and I can recite it in my sleep, sue me.

In the movie, there is a part when Weezer, played by Shirley Maclaine, comes into the beauty shop carrying a big, big bag of tomatoes. She is dressed in overalls and a serious gardner's straw hat (by serious gardner's straw hat, I mean it looks like it's been sat on more than a few times, and then been tilled under just for good measure). Anyway, Weezer plops the bag on a manicurist's stand and flops into the hair dryer chair. She takes her hat off, wipes her brow with her arm and says in her grating southern voice, "D'any of ya'll want these tomatoes? I grew them in my garden and there are just so damn many of 'em." When one of the ladies in the shop asked why she planted so many, she acerbically answers, "Well, I don't know why...I'm an old Southern lady...it's what just what we do. We wear funny hats and plant tomatoes."

Booya! I've got something to look forward to!

Which town do you live in Kimmy?

We love salsa and so does my 2 1/2 year old--doesn't care if it is spicy.

Sitting on the deck eating chips and salsa with a big ole margarita sounds so good--forget work let's go home and celebrate <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Rockport. You might not have heard of it - but it recently won an award for one of the cleanest/eco-friendly beaches in the US. We're about a 15 min. ferry ride from Port Aransas (where the Spring Breakers like to come).

That beach I mentioned above is like 2 min. away from my house. It is a crappy little house, but the front porch stretches across the whole front, and you can see the ocean from it (and the sailboats!). It's one of those beach houses you see built on stilts.

Oh and Albany - my sons won't touch salsa, but my daughter would put a straw in the jar and drink it if I'd let her (LMAO). She's gonna be 8 next month, but she's always been like that.

Course I have to beat her off with a stick anytime I wanna nosh on some chips and salsa... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Okay--you can say SKANK--hello I think all these OW who sleep with married men are users and money grubbers.

Okay if I were to sleep with MM (i wouldn't)then I would make sure to protect myself and that he was protecting himself--you can't tell me that any of these OW were trying to stop from getting pregnant.

<img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> ROTFLMAOTID <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

figure that one out--it is nice to be having fun like this today--we are not all gloom and doom and there gets to be a point where you just gotta laugh because life is too short.

I've a theory about dh during that time right after his mom died and he began the A. I think he wanted to be Tony Soprano. Seriously. He had the bars, he had the family, we had the house - I miss my gorgeous house I miss my kitchen and my pantry the most (sniff - I LIVE to cook).....he turned off his emotions then, drank like a fish and partied like it was 1999 (idiot). What a guy to take on as a role model. I told him that his mom passed, and he lost his morals....like she was his moral monitor or something. By the time his morals grew back, he'd assisted in screwing a whole bunch of lives up. That's a hard pill to swallow, eh? Like I said before, if he ever, ever, EVER...well, I can't watch him self destruct again and expect me to be around to pick up the pieces of HIM. It's his turn to pick up the pieces of ME for awhile....and he's doing a fairly commendable job right now.

I waylaid my thread again...but I've a feeling you ladies don't mind and will forgive me for it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Sometimes the mental flotsam just gushes out....you should see some of the posts to my mommy friends - lmao! You guys are getting the Campbells (condensed) version of me, really!
