Julia and Benjamin both had Valentine's Day parties in school, today. They brought in their little Valentine cards, and I supplied the cupcakes for both classes. I couldn't make them, though. I had to buy Hostess Chocolate cupcakes. Because of allergic students, the school has a prepared list of packaged foods we can serve at parties, and a permission slip comes home before every party, and we have to initial each item that our children can eat.
Chris had his party last Thursday, because he only has pre-school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I forgot all about his party until 8:15, I think. School starts at 8:30 for him. So, I sat down at my PC and made an acrostic Valentine Card in Word. I used a kiddish font, and put a clipart heart at the top, and he signed them in red marker, at the bottome. We taped 'em up, and he brought 'em to school. The
pome,
can be y'alls Valentine, too.
Very good friends
And special times, together
Love and laughter
Each time we're together
Nice Memories
To cherish
In my heart
Now and forever, and
Ever
...
(Yes, I am a giant dork--but the four year olds won't know this for another couple of years.)
I have now labeled my bookmarks - very cool and thanks to those that created the ability to do so.
On the whole when-to-talk-to-your-upstairs-neighbor versus talking-to-the-landlord issue:
My upstairs neighbor and some guy (her BF? I think?) are having a screaming fight, and they do so all the time. I don't really feel comfortable going up there and knocking on the door and asking them to cut it out. But it's really a disturbance.
[Plus, and I have no right to say this, she's very heavy -- like, way more than I am, I know, pot, kettle -- and so is her BF, and they thump around louder than anyone who's ever lived above me. I would never complain to the landlord about that, because god only knows what *my* downstairs neighbor thinks about *me.*]
So do I talk to the landlord about their screaming fights? If it wasn't a regular occurrence, I wouldn't say a thing. But it's getting really old.
Thanks, ita. I can never remember that. ♥
I was just looking at Grammy pictures. Usher's date was a full head taller than him.
Reminds me - 2 nights ago (clearly because of too many Grammy commercials) I had a dream that Usher and Justin were having a Dance Dance Revolution competition.
Nora, are you sure your place is the source of the leak? Ice damns can cause leaks on lower floors, even when the upper floors aren't showing any leaking. The water runs down through the walls, 'til it finds the most annoying place to leak out.
Weird, I'm getting red hearts almost everywhere.
Huh.
On the whole when-to-talk-to-your-upstairs-neighbor versus talking-to-the-landlord issue:
But, that's different than water leakage, right? I mean, there's no implied criticism in letting someone know that there's a leak, and perhaps we should talk to the landlord?
ETA:

Yes, you can do that.
(sorry, I am half paying attention to stuff today.)
Sounds like you need a prescription ointment, Frank.
