I would not be a happy camper.

You got 14"'s of snow? Where are you in MIchigan again?

10ish miles NW of Kalamazoo. The town I'm in is literally the crossroads for 4 decent sized inland lakes & NONE of them have frozen over so we're getting bunches of fluffy white stuff

Seriously?! I hope you are charging her for not only the day but extra for the scheduled early drop off!

What was her excuse for not showing up?

Yes she's being charged Excuse was "forgot to let you know I'm not working today, sorry"

Not to make you jealous or anything BC BUT we got 22 inches of Lake Effect last week and are slated for another 20 inches this week.

I would lovethis and welcome 14 inches of snow!!!!!!!

We got stuck with -25F actual temp and that means crunchy, crisp air but no snow

My snowmobile is really getting lonely. I might have to put it up for adoption.

I would too, I"m sooo jealous. I'm up in Saginaw Twp, Michigan and we were exactly in between the 2 bands of snow going through the state yesterday. North of us got snow and south of us got snow. We not NOTHING! Was so mad!

Got up an hour earlier to shovel the 14 inches of snow that fell overnight so dcm can drop off an hour early (ok'd last night)

Guess who no showed?

I called after 15 min to check if everything was ok....no answer. Called after 30 min, no answer. Called after 45 min, no answer. Called after an hour-answer. Upset I woke her up.



Sorry for being concerned.

I just toilet/diaper in the bathroom. I'd have a bag to put the wipes in and then dump the feces into the toilet.

[Blackcat31]

Dcb poops about 3x a day that he is here. And its really nasty. And Im allowing cloth diapers . BUT today dcm forgot to refill on cloth wipes in the diaper bag, and now I have to use disposable wipes all day today ! This makes me mad . Do you know how hard it is to do disposable wipes with cloth?
Picture me having to carry the loaded stinking diaper to my trash to carefully dump the disposable wipes while trying not to accidentally theow away any diaper doublers, liner etc..
Then carrying that same diaper out of the llaundry room, back through the kitchen through the play room and through the hall to ny bathroom to dump the poop. Then back to the play room to put in wet bag .
He is being especially difficult this morning by doing everything I don't like.... Running, non stop ear peircing screeching , not playing with any tous but instead trying to do ther stuff like climb on the couch, play with blinds, get grabby with my son smacking him in the face/grabbing at him, running at top speed to each toy that makes noise and pushes the buttons over&over just to hear the noise over&over.

I have a cloth diaper wearer. I use disposable wipes every change.

I bring the wet bag and a plastic grocery store type bag with me for each change. As I wipe with the disposabel wipes, I put the used dirty ones in the pastic bag, put the cloth diaper in the wet bag and viola`....easy peasy.....

It isn't necessay to make all those trips back and forth if you just bring the items with you.

I have found that they call when I happen to be online or just got off the computer. Its like its certain sites that are tracing my number.

recheck the do not call list, ours expires every 3 yrs I just redid it last week

also, the ones with the credit card, you need to ask them which cc they are talking about. Don't give out your info but aske them for it.

also, I have given the phone to the dck's to talk to the telemarketers, its so funny because they holler mummy daddy into the phone.

do you guys get the boat calling you, telling you that you won a cruise, I get it all the time.

I don't think you have to renew anymore. I think I remember it being every 3 or 5 years but the website states that it won't expire until your line is disconnected.

I still don't think I qualify for the registry so I just have to start getting their info and keep a log of who I've told to stop calling me so I can go after them if they continue. Yay... More paperwork for me!

That's funny!! :: I used to get so irritated with the constant junk mail that was filling my mailbox every day. I started saving all the pre-paid return envelopes that were included and started filling them with offers from other companies, bread twist ties, bottle caps, paperclips, shriveled cheerios from under the couch.... Pretty much just random junk from around the house. I would fit as much as I could in them in hopes that they would have to pay extra postage upon delivery.

I still received the junk mail but I felt better about it!

LOVE IT!! I got a package from AARP one time around my 40th birthday. I was ticked. I wrote on the offer slip, I only just turned 40 give me a break!! They haven't mailed me anything else! It is satisfying in a way to do that to companies that bug ya. Love the crushed up cheerios! ::

[mamac]

You guys are NOT going to believe this, but the card services are on the phone right now!! I clicked on 1 and have a operator. She asked me about 4 questions and I told her that I owed about $35,000 in credit cards (which I don't) and then asked me what my balance was on the one card and I asked her if she could hold while I looked and then just sat the phone down!!! I don't know if she's still on the line or not. Bwahahaha!!

I'm on the do not call list and have reported this company (whoever they are) several times and still get the dang calls. I didn't give her any information at all, not even my name. Just a ficticious amount and told her it was a credit card from my credit union. Never gave her any info at all personal. I haven't got the one about the cruise.

:::: That's hilarious!

Isn't it funny! Made my day. I could absolutely not believe it when I was just on here talking about them and the phone rings. I though, wouldnt' that be funny if it was them and sure as sh** it was!!! I put the phone on the counter and was with the kids and every few seconds I would yell, just a minute I'm lookiing bwahahaha!! I don't know how long she stayed on. I eventually just went and hung up. I'm going to do that every single time. Maybe that will get rid of them.!!
