Hola - I’m back from Mexico

oooooh you spoiled girl!!!! I love to paint and corona makes it even more worth it! be there is 6 hours LOL

Gosh everyone is going to fun places and I aint going nowhere but my mom's house this weekend to watch her and my sisters get drunk..yea for me.  I am not much of a drinker..maybe one glass or two of wine...they are usually on their 4 or 5 corona by then and just getting warmed up.....not much fun but my mom wants just us girls and no kids to come and visit her and stay the weekend...I probably will need my Imitrex shots(migraines) & Sarah's headphones for noise reduction before it all over with.

...I want to go to Costa Rica and Mexico..and Greece..and visit MamaKat in California~Arkansas to see Stickboys favorite nature spots..and  Tzoya in NY and jeez wherever any of yall live besides here!....TX is boring!!!!

By the way..welcome back Mamajot!  Post some pics of Mexico:)

Okay - you STOLE my dream from the TPBM thread!  Oh, that would be so nice.

Welcome back and glad you had a great time, even though I'm terribly jealous!

The part about mexico sounds GREAT. but. wow. no offense, but you'll have
to count me out for cupboard work.


I am also VERY jealous. I personally am afriad to leave USA myself, and probably never will, I will miss out on much I am sure but their is plenty I have never seen here anyways. Mexico I hear (some) parts of it are very beutiful and I am glad you got to enjoy your 10 year annaversery their.

My God, all you guys going to all these different countries, and EUROPE! WOW! Maby someday....

I have yet to even get to the Adirondacks, like 150 miles north of where I am now, a little less. I was suppose to go before I quit my job, now I dont wanna shell out my very limited remaining funds on gas, even tho I have all this free time, heh. It must be nice to be able to go out and travel.

Did you get pics? I would LOVE to see them!!

I hope that no matter what happens that we ALL get to go to a few places that we have always wanted to go before we die. My parents now that my sis and I are out on our own have yet to do anything serious, and you would think once the kids are all gone and you have accomplished the GREATEST task a person can accomplish, that it would be like a whole new life and world of oppertunity, I cant beleive they dont do anything like you guys, I just dont understand.

Some day the 1 thing I have always wanted to experience besides Alaska is the Grand Canyon (ya I know, my spelling and grammar suck, combination of living in the digital age + english being my worst subject) or even yellowstone. I want to some day do some SERIOUS back packing, like just dissapear for a week and just live on the side of some mountain or miles into the woods and not come out for days on end. That too me is paradise. I never desired going to some tropical destination, but certainly if I had an oppertunity to go would take it in a heart beat.

SO, when you all see your greatest projects almost finished, seeing your kids (NT OR ASD) go off into the real world to start their own lives, I sure hope you get to live it up, my parents can use a few lessons from you guys!!!!

OK... /rant . Good night!Welcome Back! WIMomOf239633.2101736111

I want to do so much stuff to my house but my dh would have to die first. 

He wont let me DO nothing! I want wood floors..hating the carpet so much, new paint, new cabinets, new deck~tear out old one first...take out some walls to make it more open...hmmm... tile here and there...All stainless steel appliances in kitchen..gardentub....landscaping~stained glass windows here and there..and some new furniture~drapes and a new fence..IS THAT ASKING TOO MUCH???  Oh well a girl could dream huh?

Shelly R: Speaking strictly as a pragmatic husband,

Do you know how much all of that stuff Costs? It would be cheaper to jack up the address and put a new house under it. Oh yea...I want that too!  With a swimming pool..nice neighbors with lots of social little kids for Sarah to play with..and a nice park within walking distance...a school district that caters to ALL my childs needs and then some...lots of friends for me too:).. Skies of blue..red robins too..I see it now.. dont wake me.Welcome back! I would love to come and play with you, drink and stuff BUT I
have to pack because we are living for Costa Rica tomorrow

However....I could park my kiddo with you for 3 days.....what do you say?

Uhmmm, no? Cool Sweetpups - I've never been to Costa Rica so please give us a full report upon your return.  My three will be back Friday so he's welcome to join us!Love too, but I'll send my wife and I'll come over if DH is there, You all carry weapons, so I want no appearence of impropriety,
Luckyman32739631.339375LOL Lucky! I promise to only be armed with a belt sander and putty knife.  DH will be at work.  Your wife can help me and you can be foreman/bartender. mamajot39631.3553703704

What a wonderful vacation for you.  I have never been away from all three kids at once for more than a few hours.  We have never had anyone to take them.

BUT, Adam is going to camp Sunday and my sister volunteered to watch the two younger ones for two days.  So that is the first time ever away.   

 

wow--sounds like a great trip! How nice of your parents. We just took our first trip without kids a couple of weeks ago and had a blast.

Wait for me ... I am coming

Sounds Heavenly

DH and I arrived home yesterday from our 4 nights in Mexico sans children to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary.  It was lovely!  I read 3 books and not one was about autism.  My favorite part was a waiter - his response to everything you asked him for was "yes, of course".  I want to bring him home and teach my kids how to say that to all my requests!

The boys (and the dog) are in Wisconsin with my parents and are not missing us a bit!  My parents wanted to keep them this week too so I'm back in Chicago with no kids.  It's really, really wierd.  I miss them but am certainly enjoying the break.  I'm at work now and DH has to work tonight so I'll have the whole house to myself tonight. Really really wierd.  Tonight when I get home I have plans to take the kitchen cabinet doors off and start prepping them for painting - and no one is going to stop me so I can 1. put nickjr on the computer, 2. get them something to eat because they're starving, 3. wipe a butt, 4. remove the dog's teeth from a prized toy.....

So, who wants to come over and help me put wood putty in hardware holes on the cabinet doors while we listen to the radio and drink coronas?  Anyone?
