I don't get their logic at all. But then that's what differentiates me from them. They are so negative...I can't imagine feeling that way about anything. I mean there are things I don't like in this world, but I don't go writing hateful responses about them. Geesh!!

They get teary on the hellos and goodbyes with traveling, but doesn't seem to slow them down from wanting to go again.<br /><br />Even when we lived in FL, they were coming to NC for "sleepover" camps from 2nd grade on. We'd all fly up, drop them at camp, DH & I would travel around for several weeks in NC and then pick them up to fly home.<br /><br />This year - oh my, scheduling their activities is tougher than keeping up with feeding schedules when they were babies. Church camp (in the mtns of NC about 4 hrs away) starts tomorrow. <br /><br />The return from Church camp is Saturday 18th, but Saturday is also the "check-in" day for basketball camp at Duke. One of the basketball campers will remain on Duke campus the week after for cryptography camp for math, science, and computer geeks.<br /><br />The crypto camper returns on a Saturday 25th, but another goes to horseback riding camp on same week as one at rapelling camp (yep - learning to rapell down mtns.) It goes on like that all summer. We have many location shoots throughout the summer so that gets factored in also.<br /><br />They will miss being home on Father's Day but Dad understand.<br /><br />We're already finishing plans for summer 2012. My tweens will be 13 then and we are expanding. One son goes to China to study for 6 wks; his sister goes to drama camp in NY state.(We'll make it through this summer - - as for next summer, we'll somehow get through it also.) My parents didn't let me go that far away until high school, but times change, lol, so I'm told.LindaOriginalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02772557080014239781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914552682332144225.post-43408678005291097592011-06-11T14:15:10.506-04:002011-06-11T14:15:10.506-04:00momsby - It was indeed frenetic.

I loved Kate's response to a Buttinski who asked<br />why she was on twitter instead instead of with<br />the kids. Basically, it was I'm working..mom's have too work! Much more restrained that I would have been, cause let's face it if Mom's are not supposed to Tweet or Blog G-land would be a ghost town. <br /><br />It always makes me chuckle when I see people who have stated they have kids snarking about the time Kate spends on Twitter.

(Update for those who don't Tweet.)<br /><br />Last night Kate tweeted for followers to send in Tweet questions to her this morning between 9:30-10:00 am. She's going to answer back best ones on Twitter. It's being filmed for the show. <br /><br />As you can imagine, the questions have been flowing non-stop.LindaOriginalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02772557080014239781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914552682332144225.post-36634688104694039122011-06-11T00:10:25.557-04:002011-06-11T00:10:25.557-04:00Linda, kids like that are truelly special, keeping...Linda, kids like that are truelly special, keeping his room clean probably helps him function. One of my biggest disappointments with Sarah Palin's show was how little her son was able to be included. I understand that it is most likely unsafe for him to be around guns and such, but he was mostly shuttled off to Grandma. I would have loved to see how in less populated states like Alaska, he's able to get his therapies and such. It was also one of the things I admired most about the Table for Twelve family, how they included Rebecca and met her needs with such dignity. I think that if more people see things like that, they would be more comfortable around people with disabilities.tashaporkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02614153610713537018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914552682332144225.post-71971460047039298382011-06-10T22:37:37.296-04:002011-06-10T22:37:37.296-04:00Oh my.

That's a scary thought, lol.<br />-----<br />Tashapork - I'm surprised also that TLC doesn't have an online version, even if it were a "pay per view," I think many would do that.<br />-----<br />Wishing everybody a peaceful weekend, also. Our certainly was pleasant this evening as we attended a "graduation" party for the son of a dear friend. This child is Down's Syndrome and has finally aged out of the school system. He will be taking a two week vacation and then begin a paid position as a stock clerk at a local grocery store. He takes great pride in getting every item on the proper shelf and completely aligned.<br /><br />Amazing, that despite difficulties, this child has always kept his room "neat as a pin," with every toy on it's proper shelf, every shirt straight on a hanger and aligned. The only things that seem to rattle him are dogs, cats, spiders, escalators and elevators (although his favorite movie is 101 Dalmatians.) He'd never make it in a large city because he has to take the stairs (Fine until it's more than 3 or 4 flights.)<br /><br />In 21 years I've never seem him grumpy even one day, or resentful. He seems to be happy in whatever task he's given to do. I mention it only because ... isn't it a shame that so many of the rest of us can't be happy wherever we are in life??<br /><br />Hugs and make it a great weekend.

Going with fewer photos, etc. I think it would load faster and make it less prone to "breaking." Please let Baby Mama know your thoughts.<br /><br />As all of you regular posters know, I don't have anything to do with what's here, content wise except end of last summer when she was on vacation. My job/help as wing-woman is eliminating pesky flies, and trying to fix broken code.

In my own life, my attitudes towards "mess" changed dramatically from when the kids were toddlers to when the kids became school aged.<br /><br />As kids get older, taking care of them doesn't seem so overwhelming; at least to me. Then too, when they got older, they could help clean up the messes they made, or clean it up themselves. Same thing with picking up toys, etc.<br /><br />I remember well during the Polly Pockets/Barbie phase I felt like if I stepped on one more of those little shoes or accessories I'd lose it big time. House rule now has changed to: get it all picked up and put away 30 mins before bed/bath time and they get a reminder. If it is left out at bed time, it goes into the penalty box and you've gotta do an extra chore to get it back.<br /><br />I do remember, as does my family, when I'd start in their rooms with a broom sweeping all those accessory pieces/shoes to the hall, then down the steps, then into trash. That happened after reminders were ignored and deadlines passed. <br /><br />Huge difference, IMO, between picking up after 1 child and picking up after a bunch. You had to stay on it constantly or the clutter became out of control in just a few short hours. At least, that's the way it was in "our neck of the woods." <br /><br />Holey Moley, I'm sooooo glad those toddler/prek years are over! And we survived, lol.LindaOriginalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02772557080014239781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914552682332144225.post-62481296617854992112011-06-10T11:20:57.770-04:002011-06-10T11:20:57.770-04:00First time poster here.

The promo for "Katie Plus 80," a riff on Kate Gosselin's TLC series "Kate Plus 8," gives a sneak peak at life for "a single mom with 80 kids."<br /><br />"Okay you little monsters, dinner time!" a megaphone-wielding Couric calls out. As the children gather around, Couric, gloved and goggled, loads a jumbo-sized slingshot with spaghetti and launches it at the hungry youngsters.<br /><br />"You get what you get and you don't get upset," she shouts before firing off spaghetti sauce into the crowd. The skit ends as a strained Couric tells viewers, "Come join our family," before shaking a boy from her leg, ordering, "Get off me!"<br /><br />WATCH THE VIDEO HERE: <br />http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/2011/06/08/2011-06-08_katie_couric_spoofs_kate_gosselin_on_jimmy_kimmel_live_gives_first_look_at_new_a.htmlThe Travel Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08652768852732313054noreply@blogger.com
