Um... does he agree with that?

If so, I think he's delirious!

Of course not! He's 9! He's still giving me a hard time about the medicine.

Ms. Z,
Did you find something else to mix it in?

zea3 wrote:Hey Cruzer, doing fine. What did you end up cooking last night?

I was over ruled on my decision to cook last night so we went out instead.

Perhaps tonight...unless she decides that she wants to go home tonight. I dunno.

Ice cream, but he is still gagging.

Ms. Z,
Try hamburger, it seems to work for dogs!

This kid won't eat hamburgers. These are some big stinking capsules and he has to take 3 of them twice a day. If they taste as nasty as they smell, I can understand why he's trying to avoid taking them. Blech!

Ms. Z,

O M G he's some kind of mutant!

What does he eat? I think bitter kind of clashes with sweet stuff, it might go better with oily/creamy or salty, or you could hide it in spicy.

edit: If you mix it in liquid, he might be able to chug it and not taste it so much.

His main diet is chicken nuggets, mac & cheese, or Polish sausage. He doesn't chug anything, and I don't think the medicine dissolves very well. It leaves a gritty residue.

Ms. Z,
He is too tough for me. I suppose he doesn't like BBQ sauce or mustard on his nuggets. Probably cooking the power in the cheese or inside the sausage isn't a good idea. I'm stumped.

Glad to see my son isn't the only one who has weird food likes/dislikes. The only meat he'll eat is hamburger. He won't even eat a meatball - unless we cut it up and tell him it's a hamburger. Guess the spaghetti sauce isn't a big enough clue for him. Don't know what we'll feed him once he gets smart.

I'm working from home today but just got booted out of their network. I have a report I really need to finish today and I can't get back in.

Probably going to disappear again once I can log back in...

Hi guys, found out a bit more on the job front. Boss's promotion is the kind that includes a moving truck. I have no idea what this means for me, but it definitely mens he won't be my boss after this. I am kinda his personal slave so. . . .

On the positive side my friend who works for a neighboring agency called to see i I still had a job, so . . . .(his agency pays better, but they have a union so the hours are stricter and I am not sure if we could afford that, which is why I didn't mov earlier)

Go for it! Union isn't as bad as it sounds (though you have to watch them closely).

Oh yeah, hi PWAers!

Uh oh. Sorry to hear about the coming upheaval, Ms. KtC.

It's not the Union that bothers me, it's the cost of daycare and the time away from the baby. We spend just under $4000 for one girl to be in care two day a week for the year.

Not sue the job is gone yet, I may just transfer to someone else, but thanks all. I'll be updating regularly, your sorta part of my thinking/cooping process.

Ms. KtC,

You've probably posted this before, but I probably missed it or just forgot: Do none of these agencies believe in providing/subsidizing day care?

Why not just not join the union?

Where is poof?

That is a problem. The positive thing about working at the University is the subsidized daycare. Here, we have a child center that costs $3.25/hour for faculty. Can't get close to that elsewhere.... of course, my wife is a stay-at-home-mom, so we only use it to give her a break once a weel.

Not that we are discussing. My daughter attends the University center and if one of us got a job at the University (something Orc would really like to do) we would get a discount. I know the CDA tribe does, they are 45 mins away, not sure about the Nez, also 45 mins away.

Edit: Skek you University Center has a much better deal than ours, even for faculty our center does not have that much of a discount I think it is 10-15% at most.

Was I right? Did you pick up Maisy before you went home?

daj59 wrote:Of course. I went by Tom Thumb to get my $50, then to get gas (automobile kind), and the over to son's Dad's to get Maisy. Would have been silly to go home first only go get back in the car to pick her up. She's all happy although she kept wandering back to their front door while we were talking outside. I think she enjoyed herself over there.

I just thought since son took Maisy there, perhaps son would bring Maisy home. I take it she's no longer a fluffy butt.

Good evening folks!

Heh! Looks like the view outside of my parents' windows in suburban Chicago (Lindenhurst).

Gotta go to beddy bye... chat later.
