'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Could be condensation... does it have a icemaker or any kind of water hookup? Could it be a leak from pipes in the walls?

Some of these qualify as emergencies that would be appropriate to stay home from work to deal with, I have to say.

msbelle, hang in there. Note to self: Parenthood, not for the weak and easily frightened...

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I'm good with stuff. I mean I want to smash the DS and yell and yell at him, but I gave him hugs and head kisses instead and told him that we were good and not to think about last night, just focus on school.

Having a child that does not snap to good behavior with the removal of priveledges or the threat thereof (but gets worse) and cannot maintain good bahavior with the promise of rewards, it just goes against all my learned knowledge of how things work in a household.

That's why you're working with the professionals on this one. Mac is like Childraising 501, the advanced seminar, from where I (childlessly) sit.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Birthday Calli! Happy Birthday Burrell!

Our wings are not tired.

Mac is blessed to have you as a mother, msbelle. You will find a way together to make it work.

and now I must unsub from Natter because the week promises to be insane and I won't be able to keep up. sniff

Have a good week, Natterbugs.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sorry, I forgot: Happy birthdays, Burrell and Calli!

It does not have either of those things, and I just put down a towel and left. Meh. It couldn't have waited ten days??

hip deep in pie

Older fridges I have known have had trays to catch water on the bottom. Maybe yours has one and it's overflowing for osme reason.

Hppy Birthday Burrell! Happy Birthday Calli!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Sorry to hear mac's going through another rough patch, msbelle.

Happy birthdays Burrell and Calli!

When I directed Variations on the Death of Trotsky in high school, I used Maxwell's Silver Hammer for the curtain call. (Ah, high school theatre. Where nobody worries about royalties.)

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Thanks for the birthday wishes, y'all! I've reached the age of the ultimate question. We'll see if anything comes to mind.

And now I'm off to celebrate by going to a meeting. Whee!

Amy - Oct 19, 2009 5:03:47 am PDT #14334 of 30001

Because books.

I woke up with Maxwell's Silver Hammer in my head.

Happy happy birthday to Burrell and Calli, with cake!
