Monday, Monday...can't trust that day...

Dec 22, 2003 10:15

Wow. What a busy day.

Not.

It’s bad news when you walk into work the week of a holiday. Bad news in general. But it’s worse when you walk in and almost two hours later you’ve done one, maybe two tasks. And one of them is checking your email and discovering a e-card from a coworker ( Read more... )

Happy Monday, sweetie! nikkikat December 22 2003, 08:35:40 UTC

Sounds like it was quite a weekend for you! I'm glad all went well. *huggles*

*hugs* cbt377 December 22 2003, 08:37:30 UTC

Thanks! And you? Christmas party was fun, and you got book-money. Good stuff!

And how is JC doing with the crying it out at bedtime thing? my_shoe_closet December 22 2003, 10:57:51 UTC

Is she still improving?

I hate those Taco Bell hybrids. If I want a taco, I'll go to Taco Bell. If I want pizza, I'll go to Pizza Hut. I don't need to have a taco and a piece of pizza at the same time. It's that Wal Mart mentality and it makes me mad. :)

Oh good Jesusu...do I have a site for you then. cbt377 December 22 2003, 11:25:36 UTC

Join me in my Walmart hatred.

www.wallyworldlife.com

It's GREAT fun, and just about all that's getting me through today. If you go there, be sure to read the first few paragraphs, then click on the link that says "If this is your first time..."

Trust me.

Julia is doing well with the CIO plan. We had a back-track last night, where she cried for an hour (thankfully I was out "shopping" aka --looking for Christmas sales for myself), but she's sleeping through the night and falling asleep in less than ten minutes for her naps.

The nicest part of this plan is that J and I no longer feel bad letting her cry so it makes it a lot easier on us to put her down. She goes to bed, we go do other things, like wrap presents for two hours. The person who invented this plan is a genius.

That person, of course, is me. :)

And you? Solve the "what to get Navy boy" problem?

LMAO. my_shoe_closet December 22 2003, 11:30:05 UTC

I'm on my way to that site as soon as I hit "post comment".

I solved the Navy boy delima, the full story is up on my LJ if you're interested. It's not that interesting though. :) It just demonstrates that I'm totally wacky.

I'm glad you two aren't feeling bad about letting her cry it out. You shouldn't. She's manipulating you (in her own baby-way) and if you allow yourself to manipulate you now, just wait until she's 14. Best to show her whose boss when she still wears a diaper.

Amen, sista. cbt377 December 22 2003, 11:33:40 UTC

I will NOT be bossed by my child.

Heh. *nods*

You believe me, right?

Could you help ME believe that? :)

The first night or two I felt bad. Then I realized that not only is she going to sleep on her own, and sleeping through the night (which is SO nice), but that once I put her in that bed and shut the door I'm FREE to do whatever I want... It's a beautiful, beautiful thing.

And I'm heading to read your journal asap. Must not have been up yet this morning when I read...or I didn't scroll far enough. *shrug*

I think I've seen one with A & W...... scottbad100 December 22 2003, 11:03:14 UTC

I can't remember for sure. Can't wait for this short week to be over and can't wait for Christmas so I can give my family the stuff I got em.

I know! cbt377 December 22 2003, 11:29:58 UTC

I love giving almost as much as getting. :)

that's the new thing... oneweaklink December 22 2003, 13:53:40 UTC

A+W hot dogs, Long John Silvers, KFC, Pizza Hut, and Taco Bell are all owned by the same company, and lately they've been putting two of them in the same building (for example, near us we have a KFC/A+W combo)

and speaking of ecards, did you get mine?

I hate it! cbt377 December 22 2003, 14:01:21 UTC

But I loved the e-card...thanks!

I did little in the way of cards this year. E or otherwise. But yours was much appreciated and gave me a smile. :)

*hugs*

Merry Christmas early!

i'll one up you... jogo December 22 2003, 18:14:55 UTC

when i went to detroit to visit friends last summer, they had a white castle and a church's chicken in the same drive through.

how ghetto is THAT?

here we have dunkin donuts, baskin robbins, and Togo in the same buildings. it's like, ok, do good and eat Togo, but then ruin it all with donuts and ice cream! i want to meet that genius.

What's Togo? cbt377 December 22 2003, 20:46:37 UTC

Is my Missouri showing if I have to ask that?

But yeah, you win with the Whities and the Church's in one drive-through.

Re: What's Togo? jogo December 22 2003, 20:56:09 UTC

It's kind of like Subway, only not as good.

36 more hours until I get Lion's Choice... mmmmmmm.....

Now see? cbt377 December 23 2003, 06:26:14 UTC

That's something to look forward to!
