Stayed home from work with sick RetroGirl today

[RetroLounge]

She has a slight fever and a stuffy nose-type cold. She's going to be laying on the couch watching cartoons and napping all day.

I on the other hand am playing full-time bookseller today and will take the opportunity to list more books online.

Not to mention do a little DU posting and lounge flirting.

Ah, the joy of the Friday day-off...

What are you guys doing today?

:hi:

[Left Is Write]

1. Both of my kids are at school - I have some things to do around the house.

I have to take a class tonight and then join my husband downtown at a work function.

[RetroLounge]

3. What class are you taking?

RL

[Left Is Write]

6. CPR. My most recent certification expired about 15 years ago.

I have to have it for work.

[RetroLounge]

10. Annie Annie, Wake up!

I remember those days. I was certified way way back...

RL

[KitchenWitch]

2. One of my kids is already in school

I take the other one to school in about an hour. Then I have a Costco run and a Target run that needs done.

[RetroLounge]

5. oooh, I love Target, I must admit...

I could really spend my way into trouble there.

RL

[KitchenWitch]

13. Me too!

I have a $50 giftcard burning a hole in my pocket!

[RetroLounge]

26. Ah, that wouldn't last long in this household...

:hi:

RL

[KitchenWitch]

27. LOL

It has been a matter of being able to make the time to spend it!

:P

[kmla]

32. Me, neither. The cost of admission (or perhaps the cost to leave) Target

is about $100 a trip for the kmla household, on average.

Frightening how those few incidentals total about $100 every time we go....

[KitchenWitch]

34. you know how there are "Dollar Stores" all over the place.

I have nicknamed Target the "Hundred Dollar Store".

:rofl:

[RetroLounge]

43. Exactly!

I NEVER get out of there under $100.00.

and worse when the kids are with me...

RL

[BarenakedLady]

Woot!

More RL flirting. My day is all set now. :woohoo:

I hope your little one gets better soon. :hug:

I'm doing much of nothing today (what a surprise!:eyes: ). I need to put on a sweater, because I'm very cold and take a nap because I'm very old. (and getting loopy)

[RetroLounge]

9. Is it a tight sweater?

:shrug:

RL

[BarenakedLady]

15. Hehehehe

Of course. :evilgrin:

[RetroLounge]

18. Can I join you for that nap?

feeling a bit tired and needing cuddling, you know...

:evilgrin:

RL

[BarenakedLady]

21. Oh yes, I do know that feeling

Of course, you have to compete with my chimps for space. :)

[RetroLounge]

22. I'm sure we can work out the space issues

:hug:

RL

[FedUpWithIt All]

4. ...

Many :hug: to RetroGirl

[RetroLounge]

8. Thanks!

and hugs back to ya!

:hug:

RL

[bicentennial_baby]

7. I'm making a chicken stock

:D

:hi:

[RetroLounge]

11. Yummy!

You are such a foodie, I love it...

I could never live with you guys, my buddha belly would expand!

But Damn, I would be happy...

:hug:

RL

[bicentennial_baby]

17. Awwwww, you.

Yeah, I've packed on about 15 lbs since June...but, I wear it well, or so Sniffa tells me :D

But yes, you would...We eat quite well over here :)

:hug:

Have fun with the lil angel today! :bounce:

[cwydro]

12. Feeling grumbly about working...

but DU sure helps!

Enjoy your day and I hope the little one feels better soon.

[RetroLounge]

16. Thanks...

Don't work too hard, it's friday after all...

:hi:

RL

[cwydro]

19. ~snort~

doing more posting than working!:hi:

[RetroLounge]

25. My kind of Friday!

Hey, the Lounge IS work, you know...

You are sharpening your writting skills and communication skills too...

:rofl:

RL

[Kerrytravelers]

14. I have one meeting with a family today, and then just clean up my home office.

That's it.

Oh, and call the local Honda dealer for an oil and filter change.

And one load of laundry.


I better get going!

[RetroLounge]

20. Sounds like you need a To Do list...

I can't live without them...

RL

[Kerrytravelers]

23. I'm a list-girl.

I have a list for making lists.

It's that bad! :blush:

[RetroLounge]

24. Yeah, I'm like that too...

A bit obsessive at times, but otherwise I forget things...

RL

[1gobluedem]

28. I have to get used to my new desk

It's the opposite of my old one; file drawer is on the right not the left and there is no center drawer and it's apparently thrown me into a complete upheaval; thus far today I recycled the current invoices instead of mailing them and tried to store a stack of office supplies in the refrigerator. And the day is only half over.

[RetroLounge]

46. tried to store a stack of office supplies in the refrigerator

:rofl:

RL

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. Good morning, my dear Retro..........

What am I going to do today?

Well.....I just posted in your *ahem* poetry thread! Wow....:blush:

And shortly I need to drag myself away from this goddamn addictive place so I can have my breakfast!

And then go to the gym.......

Come home, shower, dress and all that.......

I suspect me and my husband will be going out to lunch today.....

This afternoon, call the HP folks to see if they can talk me through a fix for my non-functional printer........

Do some modding along the way........

So...behave, OK?

I hope RetroGirl is soon well! Enjoy your day, sweetie.....:hug:

[RetroLounge]

44. Sounds like a fun day!

I'll do my best to behave, but you know me...

[ScreamingMeemie]

30. Wishing the Geometry Gods would come down and solve this lot

size problem I'm having on a report. :(

[RetroLounge]

42. The Geometry Gods are on vacation I think...

:hi:

RL

[LaraMN]

31. I'm packing to LEEEEAVE!

Heading out-of-town for the weekend, all by myself! I have way too much planned, I'm going to see a ton of friends, AND there's a twin cities DU meetup, so I FINALLY get to meet some DUers, as well!

I'm so ridiculously excited it's pathetic. It's painfully obvious that I don't get out (of town, anyway) often enough.

I hope the sicky is feeling better soon!

:hi:

[RetroLounge]

33. Are you wearing your boots to the meetup?

We expect pictures!

:hi:

RL

[LaraMN]

36. Lol!

I hadn't really thought about it. It's pretty cold out. Maybe I'll bring some and decide later. I will, however, definitely bring extra batteries for my camera!

[LynzM]

35. Same here, RL

Sick kiddo with nasty fever, cough, and runny nose... I'm doing some work from home, and playing online, and reading some good books. Only thing on the "agenda" is a trip to the bank.

:hi:

[RetroLounge]

39. I'm digging thru boxes and finding LOTS of books...

Hard to sell some of them and not keep them for myself...

:hi:

RL

[SPKrazy]

37. What is this lounge flirting you speak of?

:shrug:

jest askin'?

:rofl:

[RetroLounge]

40. You'll have to watch and learn...

:rofl:

RL

[SPKrazy]

41. Thanks, I'll Have To Study This Phenomenon

maybe I can learn something useful for life!

:rofl:

[RetroLounge]

45. Useful?

Sure, if you want to get in trouble, have a complicated life, get stalked by spouses, and fall for people who live in other states...

Then, yes, it is very useful...

:rofl:

RL

[SPKrazy]

47. Those seem to be goals

that are on my agenda

series!!!1111111


:rofl:

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

38. I've got most of the running around done but I still have to go to the

grocery store. Just popped back home to have a sandwich and check out DU. I never grocery shop on an empty stomach.

I'll probably hit the video store this afternoon as well. Since we spent Christmas in Ireland I haven't watched any movies in a while. I rented the DaVinci Code the night before we left. I thought it was pretty good myself. Anyone have any suggestions???

If I don't rent a movie or two, I'll probably take a nap. I'm still kind of jet lagged even though we got back Monday night.

Hope RetroGirl feels better.

[RetroLounge]

48. Thanks

:hi:

RL

[tigereye]

49. that was me yesterday - well, minus the flirting part ;)

my son was sick, but not too sick to spend most of the day gaming....

hope she feels better.


on edit, got to have the day to myself today, since my progeny was back at school, went out to lunch, went shopping, stayed out of Target, took some clothes to the Goodwill.

[BarenakedLady]

50. pffft he missed the flirting part too...

didn't even kiss my boo-boo. :(

[RetroLounge]

51. Hey, you're in the other thread

waxing off... or something...

:9

RL

[BarenakedLady]

52. Hehehe

Like NWC said "a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do." :rofl:

[RetroLounge]

53. and a guy too...

maybe i can lend you a hand...

:evilgrin:

RL

[BarenakedLady]

54. A hand would do

or another appendage...:evilgrin:

OK I am so stopping now!

[RetroLounge]
