Hey, Misti,

Take this....ha!



And this.....



Keep 'em coming, although so as to not interfere with other's real health issue posts, I guess we should start a different thread, you think???

Although, posting these photos IS like therapy for me and it MIGHT lighten up other's days too....

I never have started a new thread myself, but I guess I could figure it out..'though I don't know, remember my name...ha.

[mikiglen]

TD
i think this has become more of your thread than mine now, anyway...time for me to move on
just keep posting them here

[TexasDumb]

Misti,

That's a good pic of all your kiddos in one photo.

I know how hard it is to get everybody to "even" be all looking at the same time....much less be ready and push the button at that split second, good job!

Sometimes, it takes the patience of JOBE, and most of us on this site are probably not KNOWN for our patience, hardy-har-har!

Here are some more pics of my kiddos, it seems I just CAN'T stop.
For you folks, with dial-up (www. = world wide wait,) I apoligize if this crashes your computer.

Here in the sticks where I live, we are just lucky we do not have to climb the pole to talk on the phone!

It's a good thing I am not compulsive or obsessive, or anything like that, duh?
Then I would wonder - "Who am I, and what am I doing here on this site?" A joke.

[TexasDumb]

More from 'ole Dumb....

[lexirott]

Misti you are this thread, you better not go anywhere!!!

Love everyones pics of thier kids, they are all so beautiful.

[TexasDumb]

A few more, then I promise I will stop for a while and give someone else a chance......

[TexasDumb]

Misti,

I certainly did not mean to "hijack" your thread.
I am new and dumb, and do not quite know the required/expected etiquette yet....

Don't move on...I will start another thread and do my thang there.....

[racegirl2448]

Misti...cute kids
did you get my PM about my wasted 3 week job.... I am so depressed cuz I really enjoyed the job and even more depressed cuz I was told over & over that I was doing great and they were amazed how fast I caught on etc etc.
Then out of the clear blue...get a phone call (so un-professional) that it was not working out and they are letting me go. I was speachless,hurt,angree and above all confussed. But that is what happens when you are catagorized as an "at will state"...meaning 95% of employees are concidered "at will" and no reason is nessessary to let them go....as in my case....all I was told was "it's not personal" and when I asked what I did so I can know for a future job what NOT to do I was only told "you did nothing specificly wrong...we just feel it is not working out"
WHATEVER!!!!!
I have never been so down in the dumps even after leaving last job after 4 1/2 yrs I was not this bummed out and depressed. I do not even wanna face another day let alone get outta bed. I have refrained from taking any extra pills though during the day....I really wanted to binge this week but DID NOT!!!! So now that I am jobless again and not working 50hrs a week I can pop in and read/post more frequently again.
Misti- by the way what ever happened to Cat those weeks she was gone...was she ok...was her son ok? Just curious I am waiting for a reply to my PM I sent her yesterday.....it was great reading her posts again though so happy she is back on here. You guys were my first friends on here and I love ya both very much.

Misti it is not time for you to move on what is this crazy typing!!!! You always welcome people to come and share and everything is welcome here, so people have listened and come to your thread for everything. Once your all better you'll be back full force and pick up where you left off. Dont take things so personal. We all know this is about your recovery and I enjoy coming to your thread cause thats where I can catch up on the entire forum cause everyone is right in this thread!!!! texas love the pics I can barely tell your a proud pop!!!!

[TexasDumb]

kj0975,

Thanks, and yes I, being a paid photog and all, have always taken lots of photos of my kids..Plus, when I was a young un', my parents did not have enough money to take photos of me, esp. with me being the last of 4 kids.

So, I make a point my kids WILL have some photos of their youth.

Again, I want to say I am sorry for "hijacking" Misti's thread. I did not mean to, heck, didn't even know I was....but now I do.

And Misti, I sure did not want you to feel bad.

I'll learn.
I AM house-trainable..ruff, ruff, bark, bark.......

[mikiglen]

rg, i did not get your pm, sorry. best thing to do right now is e mail me...i still am not up to long posts and im'ing and stuff
TD, keep posting here....look, i am sick, emotional, you know how when you feel bad, you get upset over the littlest thing
this is not my thread, this is everyone's thread to talk about whatever they want to. i'm sorry for my earlier post. i am feeling sorry for myself and just want to get better. doc wants me in the hospital, says i won't get well at home chasing after all the kids. can't do that. just bear with me, and soon i'll be back to my old self.
hope all of you are having a good nite, and has tenn posted lately?

[kj0975]

Texas I like your posts and everyones posts here. THis is what its all about we share everything ok not everything but alot and sharing pics or your day or whatever I feel is what this is all about. I think your funny and sometimes as a little smile to my face and to me that is always welcome. Misti I know what you mean abuot being sick and emotional boy you should see me when I'm sick worse than when I am detoxing lol. P i s s ed crying laughing puking you name it most of all just miserable. Please take care of yourself. Thats what you need to get better. If the kids get to loud you know what I play the who ever can shut up the longest will get 3 dollars!!!!! Works for about 30 min! And hey that is pure heaven! Get well and I will be thinking of you as well at 100 other people lol.

[mikiglen]

just got back from getting the kids haircuts....i cried and cried as they cut all jon's hair off...he was tired of "looking like a girl". i took a ton of pics, but of course it will be a few weeks before i post them....he looks cute, but different. i didn't get it cut TOO short, well, it is to me, but he loves it. sad when i hold that blonde ponytail in my hand (of course i kept his hair )
while i'm over there with jon, miki is going nuts...i look over and they've cut all her hair off as well! she now has like a pageboy, i guess....just to about the bottom of her ears, layered at the bottom and tapered. she looks ADORABLE, but i didn't know she was going to have that done
anyway, back to reading...feeling somewhat better finally, but still not up to long times at the computer.
hope everyone is well, love y'all

[leeside]

Give Jon a for not wanting long hair. Too bad about Miki, barbers tend to want to cut hair. Next time just the split ends.

[mikiglen]

oh, she looks great, tho! i think i am also going to get all mine cut off if i can ever get a sitter for jake where i can go
yesterday was payday, but since i am still laid off, i didn't even bother calling about my check. i guess it turned out to be an ok thing since i was so sick anyway
irs says 4 weeks til i get my refund....FINALLY. thanks so much to my guardian angel, i don't know what i would have done without him/her.
kids are growing up too fast....miki telling barber how she wants her hair done, jon insisting on getting his cut off....even the baby, he had spaghetti and breadsticks for dinner....what happened to stage 2 baby food?????
i'm getting so old

[Sugah]

Misti, you're not getting old. My husband just went to rescue our middle son with my car keys because he lost Dad's in the snow....now who's getting old?

Sorry I haven't been around a lot lately. I'm neck-deep in school and a couple of projects I knew were coming up. It's rewarding but really time consuming.

I really hope you find a compromise with the doctor about your health. If there's anyway that you can go in, even for 24 hrs for them to rehydrate you, you'll cut your recup. time down. A friend's daughter who's pretty much in your situation had to do it. This friend works for my husband, and she had to take two days off from work to watch her grandkids...things can be worked out. You keep getting sicker, or you're sicker over a longer period of time, isn't going to help the kids. You have to take care of you, sweetie. Is there a friend nearby who would at least be willing to hang out for you to get some extended rest?

Peace & Love,
Sugah

[mikiglen]

ugh, i just can't get well, don't know what is wrong with me. i am still coughing my fool head off...have this constant tickle/scratch that won't go away
jake has it, too, but seems better, as does jon
still no motivation...i need to be working on getting leads for this insurance company so i can work tomorrow, but just don't have the energy
man, this sucks

[northbelle]

The roughest part for me is that creeping feeling that...THINGS ARE NEVER GOING TO CHANGE..which in fact, thay ALWAYS do..
We just have to get through these energy-less..joyless days..
THINGS WILL CHANGE..feelings change...emotions ,,,kids..lives change..
hang on for the ride and love yourself and your family a little harder today..
love north

[mikiglen]

yeah, but i am having a day like you have been...just no energy to make that change
my boss has not spoken to me or given me work in over a week....i should be looking for a job and day care, but i feel just so sick, i don't have the energy to do that yet. who knows.....
anyway, being a pillhead, my cabinets were filled with nothing but narcotics and meds for the kids...not even an OTC pain reliever, lol. what can i go get at walgreens that will help with nose issues and scratchy throat/cough? i have got to get something besides cough drops....never taking anything but pain pills, so don't know what to get.
any help appreciated

[leeside]

garlic and honey for the cough.

echinacea for the immune system.

herbs are better for you.

[TexasDumb]

Misti,

Tylenol Cold/Sinus and Allergy tablets/capsules help me...

The generic brands are much cheaper and work just as well.

Good luck,

[ccgirl]

Miki, something you said a couple posts back reminded me of something. My friend from Colorado called last night crying because she has been getting these terrible sinus infections. This last one sent her to a specialist who so far can't find the reason why. Anyway, she said the pain was so bad it sent her to her medicine cabinet, and her, not being a pillhead had 20 percocets left from when she had her son....three years ago!!! She's been taking them until she can get to the doctor again on Monday. I can't even imagine having one percocet lying around the house, let alone a whole bottle. I really envy people like her. Sigh! I guess it'll never be like that for me or any of us.

[mikiglen]

lol, i wish i was like that....find a bottle of percocet
i only got those one time in my entire life...never had a "good doc", heh

[leeside]

I just dumped about 100 ativan and about 15 vicoden out not long ago. If I found a bottle of percocet I would dump those too. A long time ago I held on to darvocette and then took it in a weak moment and it caused me to do some really dumb things that weren't good for me.
