Nikki, are you up for getting together w/ Lidith before school starts?

Ok, so why isn't D. Matthews getting back to me? I'm starting to feel like she's ignoring me...

Is that messenger bag going to be wide enough to carry all the books though?

I thought someone said they got another out of office reply from Matthews????

I'd be up for getting together with Edita, Kristian...depends on when you were looking at doing so. What is this for though? Catching up, girls night???

Man, it is a good thing I am feeling better. But having been sick, I am behind in my bday party to-do list. I baked a cake and cupcakes today. Then got a late rsvp and realized I made 2 cakes last year. So I had to get more cake mix/frosting after I picked Lucas up from camp. I also had to redo the goody bags so everyone got one with the same amount of stuff. I made these marshmallow pops to look like lego minifigure heads. Finding the right tool to draw on the faces has been a royal pain. Still not done with those. The cupcakes are done/decorated. I will have to bake the other cake tonight. I might cut it in half or in quarters and make them look like legos. The main cake will be decorated with chocolate lego bricks I made and orange fondant, which I plan to make a basketball court out of, and place my son's lego basketball hoops and players on. That's hoping I get it all done tonight. I have some time tomorrow but I just want it done.

I figured I'd take what I'd need and switch them out between classes. It expands to 6 inches wide so I can carry a couple at a time w/ notebook/pad and other supplies. I'll know what works best once classes start and if that means rolling around a bag, then that's what I'll do.

I emailed her on the 13th and got an automated email: out on the 13th and back 7:30AM on the 14th. Thought I'd get an answer by now, but still nothing.

Yes, to catch up. Coffee, lunch, dinner...whatever works. We can set a time/day that's good for all of us.

Tired of baking yet? LOL! You must be looking forward to a day of doing nothing... is that even possible being a mom?

I was up until 2am and still didn't finish. So I am making DH take the kids out for a bit so I can get things done. In my mind, the remainder of what I have is fairly easy and shouldn't be too time consuming, but you know how that goes...never the way you planned. ;-)

I'll post pics on my fb page later.

Man, 2AM? I hope you get some good sleep tonight. I'm having the opposite issue, slept in again. Have fun! Looking forward to the pics!

I miss sleeping in. My youngest is usually out of bed around 7am, daily. He would be up playing before that but our house rule is he can't get out of bed before 7. My youngest slept until nearly 10am. Even on days when I "sleep in" I'm not really sleeping in. I can hear the kids screaming, playing, other noises. I actually told my husband in the past that as a gift, I would like a night's stay in a hotel all by myself. LOL.

Yeah, our BFs have a 1yr old (our godson) and they don't remember what real sleep is any more. They're thinking about having another child but w/ the lack of sleep and total exhaustion, they're not in any hurry. I feel for you guys in that department.

Hey girls, here's a link to the new Holy Cross Hospital in G'Town.

Beautiful design and architecture, looks more like a wellness spa. Would love to get a job and continue my education there.

That's awesome Kristian. It looks more like an art museum in Sweden! LOL

I didn't see the completion deadline but I hope since it is on the MCGT campus we will be offered jobs there. Is Holy Cross a magnet hospital though? I've been told magnet hospitals aren't hiring ADNs.

Well I never did get my Health Assessments book nor have I heard back from the seller with the 3 messages I sent her, so I just filed a claim with half.com. Problem is they said it could take up to 30 days to resolve. I hope there aren't any issues because I need to go find a new book and I don't want to be paying for it twice. Six weeks from today school starts. My SIL pointed that out to me yesterday. I'm nervous and already feeling overwhelmed. Hopefully once we finalize our schedules next week at registration and I find childcare, I will feel more settled.
