'War Stories'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
The moral of this story is that if you're going to be born with a rare birth defect, rural India is the place to do it: [link]
It makes me smile. I like that is a place in the world where a huge deformity can be celebrated.
The article had an update on Lakshmi (born with eight limbs) right next to it. [link] At least as of December she was doing well.
I love the thermostat that turns the heat on for me just before I get out of bed and just before I get home in the Winter. I'm not sure it will make me so happy w/r/t turning on the air conditioning, but I'm willing to give it a chance.
And not sitting at work thinking, "Oh, CRAP! I think I forgot to turn the heat down!" is wonderful.
My day? Less than stellar. Owen was like a monkey on crack all morning. Liv was waaaaay cranky.
O's teacher saw my face when I dropped him off and told me to leave Olivia, too. After making sure she wasn't joking, I burst into tears,hugged her and fled.
I'm sitting in a parking lot down the street waiting for pick up time.

The only problem with that is, I'm usually home. So, we can't usually save money by turning the heat down during the day.

{{{Cashmere}}} I'm sorry you're having an awful day, but that is an awesome teacher Owen has. I hope the kids are calmer tonight.

That sounds porn-ish!

Wow. She may literally be a saint.

That's my situation as well. I have the thermostat programmed to turn off the hat after we go to bed and before get up, though, and that does seem to make a difference to the bills.
I love O's teacher.
You can save even if you just have the themostat go down 10 degrees in the after your usual bedtime and bring the temperature back up in the morning.

You're right. We should definitely do that. I thought TCG was turning down the heat at night because he said he would, only to find out after a couple of weeks that he hadn't been.
O's teacher rocks.
To add to the crappy day DH's gram broke her hip and is having surgery tonight at 6pm. She is 97. She is his uncle's MIL, so not his gram, but Little Grandma to all the kids and grandkids in his family. She is a wee thing about 4'9" or something. She spends her days watching crap tv and reading tabloids. She's very funny and we all love her. Logic tells me at her age this isn't going to end well. She has lived with our aunt, her daughter, for decades and she will be devastated.
