Good evening everyone

Sorry to have been so busy lately...between getting the Rooster started in school, dealing with the house purchase stuff and my regular work the day is pretty full. And, since Rooster doesn't have his computer here until we get moved in and the truck-o-stuff arrives, he's monopolizing my pink laptop.

Dinner tonight was pork chops, mashed potatoes and glazed carrots...and everyone found their own dessert of brownies or jello or ice cream. The boys are getting along well, and had a full blown war of the stuffed pet toys going this evening. I just did the old "duck and cover"...and figured if worse came to worse I'd duck behind Scoote.

I have the feeling that life in a household of two teenage boys and a pack of animals is going to be interesting!

One more day of school and week 1 is complete. We're headed to Disney's Animal Kingdom on Saturday to belatedly celebrate the Rooster's 13th birthday. Should be fun!

Jake, so glad that you're moved and in your new place. I know that exhausted feeling, but it'll be great for you I'm sure. Once you're enjoying that patio and yard, you'll forget all about the work and hassles.

Thanks to everyone for the support and well wishes. It's been a bumpy ride, but I know it'll all work out well once we're settled in the new place.

The kiddo is kicking me off his couch so that he can go to sleep, so I'll wish you all a good night. Hugs! And

baby...

what is the age difference between the boys?

They're 3 years apart...newly 13 and very soon to be 16, so we have our hands full. I keep telling Scoote that when we get the house I'm gonna just shove food out to the pool area and run to hide in the bedroom.

Good evening all

Dinner tonight is roast beef, mashed potatoes, brown gravy and some steamed broccoli. No decision on dessert yet though

So glad to hear you're moved in Jake. It's an exhausting process. Ironically, the seller's realtor is more on the ball than ours, but it seems like we're moving forward again. We'll be living out of suitcases for a few weeks or a month...but I keep telling myself it will be worth it in the end.

Braedon, I'm so happy for you...and hope it's everything you want it to be.

The older I get, the more I think it doesn't actually matter what you want in life...as long as you know what equals happiness for you and pursue it. I work a lot with seniors, and the only really heartfelt regrets I hear about aren't the mistakes people made, but rather the things they always wanted to do and never did.

Rooster is after my laptop again...so I'll be back when he relinquishes possession.

Hugs to you all. And

baby....

Good Evening Jo,

Wow.. it sounds like you hit the ground running once you arrived. Glad to hear you got Rooster all set up for school.. sorry to hear you are still having issues the the realtor .. My Mom is selling her house as we speak and has a realtor that just decided to put her on the MLS and do a couple open houses so far.. and even when he does those.. My Mom has to email him to find out what happened?? shakes My head. So her contract with him is up in October when that hits.. she is looking elsewhere for help. So I know how you feel (sort of) grins.

Yes, I am all moved in. This weekend will be spent unpacking.. putting up blinds.. curtains.. cleaning.. decorating... and I agree.. once I get done in here and get the yard and patio going.. the move will be a distant memory. smiles.

I hope all is well on this Friday for you, scoote, and Rooster.. and that you all enjoy a peaceful weekend.

JakeTulane · 08-27-2010, 05:10 PM

Good Evening kitchen patrons,

What a week it has been. I am so glad the weekend is upon us.. I can not even tell you. laughs. As I said above the move is done and over with.. all went well.. and the movers did an excellent job handling My goods. That is always a plus. So this weekend will be cleaning, unpacking, etc. However, I love to do it.. especially the decorating part.. and it will be nice to have everything in it's place.. rummaging though boxes for things I need is not My idea of fun. laughs.

I think an early Fall has finally arrived. The temps this week have been livable especially at night time.

Tonight is date night with My girl.. so I am surely looking forward to that.

Waves to Jo, scoote, Zimmy, durrrrr, dc, morningstar, Abby, Incubus, Braedon, and anyone else I missed.

I hope you all have a peaceful Friday evening and a fun weekend ahead.

Here is some and and well it is Friday so we will through this in too. ..

For My girl..

Leigh · 08-27-2010, 05:30 PM

Evening to all of My fellow Kitchen dwellers, hope your all doing well tonight. I wanted to stop by and say hi to everyone but also to pass along My wonderful news ........ I went to the doctor today, the one who is helping Me along in My transition, and we had a good long talk today. He has Me scheduled in for two upcoming appointments ~ on September 24th to get complete bloodwork done, and then October 1st for a physical exam to make sure all is well. If all goes well and things check out, I could very well be starting testosterone on October 1st

I couldn't be happier knowing that My wish could come true a heck of alot sooner than I had ever expected, and I just had to share that news with all of My wonderful friends

Zimmeh · 08-28-2010, 11:34 AM

Good Afternoon Jo Jo,

Have fun today with the kids and Scoote at Disney. Who won the stuffed animal fight?

Have fun,

Zimmy

I am sending you all kinds of thoughts and prayers to help with whatever it is you are going through! I borrowed the coffee IV for school today. I added some espresso to it, so you should be happy in a bit!

Hugs and hope you have a better day tomorrow,

Have a good day today,
