Thanks!
And seriously I know that kids are funny...but I could never imagine that a 3 year old could be as sarcastic, creative, and hilarious as he is! Cracks me up all day, every day. He's my best little bud! I'm dreading this fall when he starts pre school...I'll be lost without my sidekick!
Edited because HE'S starting pre school, not ME. Where's the coffee?
This morning he tells me, "I love you mom because you're my best friend," does the CHEESIEST smile, then asked me for ice cream. I told him not for breakfast, he tells me, "You're fired, I don't want a mean best friend anymore".riderfangal wrote: »[xLoveLikeWinterx wrote: »

When my 4 year old gets mad at me his big comeback is : "You're not my best friend and you're not invited to my birthday party"
LOL!
My nephews always call me mean, because I won't let them eat like three or four granola bars or basically eat the whole house.
I'm a mean mom! Son to me when I told him no last year "You're mean!" (Mean = there are rules and they will be followed. The TV will be turned off now.)
After posting that I was really a mean aunt since I ripped the iPad out of my one nephews hand & told them both that they had to clean up all of the toys they threw everywhere.0 -

All of this is making me laugh especially since my son is being a total monster tonight as I am trying to get everything ready for our camping trip.
I was a good aunt. Why didn't I just stay an aunt!0 -

@orangesmartie good luck with your Mountain this weekend!
@Italian_Buju your story is gut wrenching. Proud of you for turning out to be such a selfless mother instead of following in your mothers footstep.
@rungirl1973 sorry your ex was a schmuck as well. Glad he is out of your life and glad you got a clean bill of health today
For everyone else big hugs. To my American friends Have a great July 4th tomorrow. Safe travels to anyone on the roads.0 -
HI ALL! I am back from my vacation in the Dominican Republic! It was pretty awesome, though sadly the beach (which got awesome reviews on TripAdvisor) was FULL of seaweed. The water was murky, too... I went to the Bahamas thrice when I was younger and always loved the clear Caribbean water, but this water sucked! The sand was nice and soft, though... and it was nice to just lay out and read (I thought 1,400 pages would be enough... boy was I wrong).
The room was a lot better than I was expecting, because (opposite of the beach) there were a lot of complaints. I was very much happy with it... and the buffet was pretty decent. I'm going to miss eating all the mango and passion fruit I can. It was the first time I had passion fruit and to me it's pretty much like sour candy. Yum. And the banana smoothies and fresh donuts (made right in front of you) in the morning.
I got burned and it didn't feel great. For the first time ever I have freckles on my shoulders... I feel like my body didn't know what to do with the sudden influx of sun, and really I didn't get that much of a tan despite spending a lot of time every day in the great outdoors.
SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN BOTHERING ME: I got sand in my eye yesterday, last day to really enjoy the beach. I kept rubbing my eye and washing it out with water but I still feel like something is in my eye. It kept waking me up last night and now it's just freaking me out. My boyfriend says it's probably due to irritation or just my own mind playing tricks on me... but I do feel like it's in there and it's driving me mad. I just tried to submerge my eye in the sink to rinse it out but I only succeeded in making my eye burn. I've rubbed it raw (bad idea) and now it's pretty dry. I do think I can see a hairline scratch, so maybe I rubbed san into my eye enough to scratch it? Does anyone have experience with scratched eyeballs? I'm terrified to go to the doctor because I hate people going anywhere near my eye
Despite that (and my dumb flip-flops breaking two days ago), I really enjoyed Punta Cana
It does feel pretty good to be home, though. I've been wanting to see Inside Out. 0 -

@Italian_Buju I saw a lot of people mentioning your post, so I searched back and found it. I am so sorry, that whole thing just made my heart sink. I can't believe someone would do that to their own child

Sorry to hear about your sore eye. It definitely sounds like it might be a little scratch. Try to leave it alone for a couple of days and see if it improves.

We missed you! Welcome back. And DON'T TOUCH THAT EYE you don't want to scratch the cornea. Wash it out with saline or see an eye specialist.0 -

I hope you and your sister have a fabulous visit! Major hugs to you!0 -
My 4th = a 5k I have not trained for and I am not running regularly. Followed that evening by a wine and chocolate pairing and a magnificent steak and elegant side salad with the best wine I have ever had. Desert is more wine and chocolate. Fireworks are in the distance but in clear view. Good company. Daughter running with me. Evening is SO and one other couple.
ETA, picture is approximately what we will see, we are a little further out.
ETA - I have the chocolate I special ordered for this, I will probably pick up a few more "bonus" bars and truffles...
Have a wonderful time! You'll be fine. Training is overrated.

1)Eat at or under goal.
2) Keep stretching/rolling everyday.
3) Lift at least 4 times within the next two weeks.
4) Start running next week but listen to your body.
5) Stop feeling sorry for yourself and get moving!
Great goals! Keep checking in we'll keep you on track!0 -

This is why when people that were not around when my mother was alive (as in people I met afterwards), are sometimes shocked when I tell them the years she has been dead have been the most peaceful years of my life. When I tell them a few stories they kind of understand, those that knew her, have always understood.
I am glad she was never able to poison my son the way she did me. Because believe me when I say that is not the only terrible thing she did to me, it was just the last, as she died several months after that.
Sometimes I tell my DR that I get frustrated with myself because of how much my OCD tends to limit me, and she always tells me to be thankful I am as good as I am, because I could just be a drug addict or something, given what I have been through. She always says she is amazed I actually do not suffer from some sort of depression.
My sister and I get on well, and I am excited to see her. She truly understands how I feel. She is a very big business woman, a strong leader etc, and my BIL told me once years ago, that even a phone call from my mother would disturb her sleep for several nights.
I made sure that I did not follow in my mother's footsteps, and when I had children of my own, I could not understand how she behaved the way she did. I would kill someone if they did to my children some of the things my own mother did to me, like literally murder them.
Ok, enough of this downer crap.
@Susieq_1994 - you are rocking it today! Good Stuff!!
@rungirl1973 - yeah I do not understand why parents want to divide their children. My daughter is adopted (as I have mentioned), and because I could not have more than one bio child, I have explained to her how important it is to me that they continue to be close,, even after I am gone. Also, glad your test went good!
@crosbylee - hope you have a great sunny weekend! I can't wait to go swimming! Pools opened last week but I have not had time yet!
@ythannah - I remember you saying you had a crappy home life too, I totally understand.....thankfully you were able to get out when you did!
@xLoveLikeWinterx - I ask myself that question all the time....I told my sister our mother could have just eaten us when we were young like an animal and saved us a lot of grief!
@quiksylver296 - I was wondering where you were...glad to see you on today! Good Stuff on the lifting!
I am feeling much better today than yesterday and the last few days.....I did not make it to the gym because I slept like crap and had a few too many things to do today before my sister gets here tomorrow, but I am gonna make it a bigger priority. I got a call this morning that my kitchen floor is finally being replaced on Monday, and while it causes me stress in the moment, it really needs replacing so I am thrilled.
I reworked my budget for this month so that I am able to give my son a good chunk of money towards another bike. While the whole situation just burns my *kitten* and I could use the money for other things, I really want to help him out so I am glad I was able to do that. Hopefully going to pick one up this weekend so he doesn't have to walk much longer......he is walking to work right now and it is so hot outside and it makes me feel sad for him, esp having just bought that bike last week.
Next week my boss is off work, so I am gonna be working extra again, but told her yesterday to be careful not to over load me because I am on edge.
Hopefully I do not get too far behind in the next week or so.....cuz I do not think I could skip and jump back in....I am WAY too bother by things like that.....I will not watch a TV series if I miss a single episode, or even a movie if I miss the first few minutes.....everything I do has to be in order....call it OCD
But even if I get behind and it takes me a few days to catch up I will just read along as I go, as long as you guys don't mind me adding my two cents on situations well after they are posted about!
I will be back on and off today, and tomorrow before my sister comes, but if that puts me behind, after the busy weekend and work week I have coming up, it might take me until this time next week to be back on track here, esp if I am gonna make sure I get my gym time in!!
I love you guys! A lot of you have truly touch my heart!
P.S. - Shrimp is delicious!!!!
I am so glad for you for many of the items in this post and for how well you've emerged on the other end. And trust me I get the OCD I couldn't skip either no matter how long it took me to catch up.0 -

Happy early birthday, @FroggyBug
Nashville is reportedly having the biggest fireworks show IN THE COUNTRY this year, so I shall go check it out.
Colonoscopy was this morning. All clear! Woot!
And, the prep left me -5.4 lbs this morning. Wish it would stick!
You should've saved the colonoscopy for the day of the weight loss final weigh in!0 -

Also, date night tonight for early anniversary dinner. I will be way over calories today. Back to it tomorrow.
I am totally making cheesecake for the 4th of July bbq! So many reminders on this thread!
Confession: I got myself some cheesecake after I made myself go to the urgent care on Monday. I forgot to tell you guys! I got the one with cherries on it because of this thread.
Yum!0 -

I am going to my mom's in Long Island and getting 2 long rides in to Montauk on my bike and at least one swim. My sister and her husband are visiting from Seattle too. I may cook Saturday if I can fit it in. Back at barn to work Sunday. Anyone have any fun things planned?
Undecided. We are running a 10k on Saturday. The rest depends on whether my daughter makes it down or not.
Nice! Have fun!0
