MrsGrumpy is tired. MrsGrumpy has a pile of work to do. MrsGrumpy
is nowhere near being ready for BabyGrumpy's Birthday party tomorrow...MrsGrumpy is sad because she feels she needs a personal assistant, but that isn't in the budget. Sigh....

2. He's not the damn panda, he's the BABY panda.

I am hurt...hurt that you think I'm a Republican housewife just because I love baby pandas...:cry:

3. MrsG, you've given up nurturing your children in order to watch...

4. Maybe if MrsGrumpy paid more attention to her own baby instead of the
panda baby, MrsGrumpy would be ahead of the game.

:P:hi:

8. Perhaps...but that is too reasonable.
I am not a reasonable person. ;)

6. Is MrsGrumpy turning into Ms Manners?
We gentle readers notice that MrsGrumpy is referring to herself in the third person. Is MrsGrumpy okay, or shall we book her an appointment at the, um, "spa"? :silly:

14. LOL!!!
NEVER too late for the spa, my dear. Just think:

* Three squares a day,
* an uncomfortable bed,
* wearing jammies all day,
* no dental floss (in case you try to hang yourself, apparently, but they let me keep my belt and shoelaces),
* a roommate who forgets who you are everyday because he's getting electro-shock treatments,
* all the crappy daytime TV you can watch,
* e-z solve-it crosswords 24/7,
* rehabilitative therapy-- make wallets for EVERYONE!!!

Mmmmm....."spa". More fun than an anemic yak! :silly:

10. What's with MrsG's addiction to the pandas?
I haven't had the luxury of spending the time on the Internet.

11. He's in another window. Most of my job is computer related. I
am an appraiser and spend a good amount of time doing research on the internet. The baby panda was something my son and I started watching a couple of days after it was born. I click it on and keep it in the background while I work. End of story. :hi:

12. I see, but I'd prefer to watch elephants...
One of my major totem animals alongside the hawk, golden eagle and owl.

Nice to keep yourself entertained while you work!! :hi:

:pals:

Don't let all of these things get to you. Take a load off and relax, take a nap, read a little, watch the baby panda etc....try to compartmentalize your work. Don't think of it all as one big lump of work, but a bunch of small, very manageable lumps.

And Baby G's b-day party will be fun....don't let it cause you worry. Little Grumpy won't like if his fun day is making mom sad

Just relax and don't let any of these naysayers beat you up over a baby panda

:hi:
