I have a vacation day today and tomorrow, I wake up to several calls & texts that guess what, Verizon is selling their land line access to Frontier. OMG, we had no clue, we had no idea we were being sold. Everyone claims that they will keep us but anyone who has worked in the corporate world knows that those promises can't be guaranteed. The transition will take quite a bit of time so I am not in immediate danger but WOW! Talk about a shock. AZ, ID, IL, IN, MI, NC, OH, OR, SC, WA, WV, WI and ...

I was sitting on my front porch last evening and a young man comes up and says "Hi, I am raising money for my trip to Bath, England and my goal is to meet 100 of my neighbors" I said OK and was polite and introduced myself. He then goes on about selling magazines, I tried to be polite and decline (we really don't have extra money for magazines) but he kept pushing so I said, if you want to stop back by on Friday I can see about helping you out. Then he says "This is your house, right?" ...

Nate is 3 and is no where close to potty training. He has peed in the potty twice and refuses to do so since. Last night before bed I was putting him in his jammies and he says "I want big boy panties" (I guess he has heard my DD & I call ours panties. lol) I said "No, not until you potty all the time in the big boy potty" So, what does my inventive and all too smart son do? He put them over his diaper.

Nathan started tap class tonight! OMGoodness, he did such a great job. I'm so happy he listened. And we leave for Disney World in only 18 days! I soooo can't wait!

Today was a bad day. I have to learn how to either keep my mouth shut or learn that I will always offend someone. Today at work we were discussing bad decisions made by some. I was talking about a friend of mine from H.S and I said this....

"She doesn't have much room to judge others, she herself made some bad decision. She got married at the ripe old age of 16, moved across the country, had a baby, moved back home, got a divorce, remarried, had another baby, got divorced, moved ...

Nathan finally peed on the potty today and was so proud!!!!

Plus he went to the dentist today and had his teeth checked and was such a big boy! I'm so proud of him but sad he is growing up!

I wasn't planning on renewing but the thought of not being able to blog and enjoy all the features I've known since 2004. Couldn't do it. lol So, I'm good for another year.

My membership expires in 9 days. I've been a member of these boards since 2004, the women here have helped me through my darkest days in the last 5 years. Sometimes I think I won't renew and then there are others when I'm not so sure!
