Nope Donna, I respect parents that do that, but I don't believe in that diet, I mean the list you told me about the nutrients, to put more meat on S bones...... tips for more caloric intake so he can gain weight....... Oh your crazy dogs, put some blindfolds on their eyes.... my dog never barks, she is all sweetness, I think if thiefs enter my house, she will move her tail and follow them all around.... I think she thinks herself human.....

Today I had one of those days were I see or heard sad stories.....that make me so sad..... one, of my school teacher, she was little older than me (I was a senior and it was her first year as teacher), she was diagnosed with level IV ovary cancer with metastasis in her lungs 7 years ago.... she had at that time 2 small kids, of 4 and 6, and the husband just left her, she had no medical insurance, and she and her mom have live almost of charity of friends and family these last couple of years...... she is her 3rd round of chimio of 8 sessions each. And I read on her FB wall how happy and grateful she is with life...... And another friend little boy, more less the same age of my V is in hospital he fell and broke his skull. He has to be in bed rest for 2 months...... her older son is with S in school..... I told her not to worry about her older son, I can pick him up and do homework here with S, or anything she need...... so is just one of those days when I hug my kids tight and count my blessings....

Hugs to all of you

Lorena

That sore throat and cough seems contagious, I have sore throat and little cough also......

Lorena - Got it. Let me find the list. I know she had us adding peanut butter (on toast, on waffles/pancakes), putting Carnation Instant in his milk....trying to think of other stuff. But I'll track the paper down and send you an email.

Heartbroken  

I can never keep up with the cafe. I would like to suggest The Time MARCHes On Cafe. So what if it's also from a Metallica song? It's true.

Rock on!

Shannon

Hey Shannon!!! Good to see you in here.

Thinking the chances of Ryley going on this field trip are slim to none. Fever has gone down to pretty normal, but what a junky cough. And if he goes, he'll be out in the night air (typically 30-40 degrees) on the Bay for two hours at least. Ummmm........yeah.

Lauren~ Lots of names for the March Cafe' have been thrown out through the posts between this one and my last one.....if you need help! You always do such an awesome job!!

Donna~ Poo on Ryley not feeling great enough for the field trip. Seriously, that's one brave teacher....overnight field trip--NO WAY!! Course I don't enjoy allowing sleepovers at my own house either.

Stacy~ Too funny on the Leap Day baby!! My friend's mom was born on Leap Day. She always celebrated on the 28th, but liked to rub it in that she was "younger" than us!!

I must have brain cells drying up by the minute! I can't remember anything lately!!!

No word on when we'll know about our jobs, but the principals have asked for them to work on that so that they can inform their staffs. It's just sad to think about folks losing their jobs through no fault of their own. You know....if someone is not doing their job then you can handle it, but a Reduction In Force doesn't have to have a "reason" or anything "wrong". They just need less people.

Hopefully soon!
