ACOT Message Board

Come one, come all and join us at the TIKI BAR for some girl talk and some liquid refreshments. And what a beautiful day we have to sit at the bar and gaze out at the ocean...the palm trees swaying, the surf breaking on the powdery sand and the breeze blowing so gently.

So, how was your week. Tell me what made you the happiest this week and what got on your last nerve...BarKeep...serve my pals here and this round is on me!

oh oh I have a good one today - my happy thing this week is NEW SHOES!!!

I havent let myself go shoe shopping for ages and some coworkers were going at lunch today and I went and bought a new pair of sandals and I LOVE THEM! Im wearing them now and they just make me happy!

on my last nerve? that darn migraine that I had for most of the week. I even had to miss work on Monday, it was a real doozie!

hmm, I think right now Im going to have a diet lemonade please, barkeep. not sure if I want to drink anymore ever again since that is what triggered the migraine.

(im sure I will change my mind probably sooner rather than later though)

This is such a cute idea (if I'm thinking of it right!).
My week so far has been a long one! But, overall it's been good. The thing that made me happiest was my DH was able to make it home early last night! (7 pm) He's been working each night until 11-midnight the past month, so it was really nice to have him home!

What got on my last nerve was my friend who is making it kind of clear that she doesn't want to be friends anymore, and I'm not sure why. Boo!

And I wish it were a beautiful day here (it's snowing!), thanks for opening up this fun thread!

Its warm and windy here in OK today! I have a quick crop today at my local micheals store (quick because its 3.75 hours). I will only finish one and a half LO if that. Bartender just referesh my caffee free pepsi for now, stonger for later! I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! I have the shriner circus tomorrow and The Annual MIDEVIL FAIR on Sunday!
happy moment of the week........................New summer slip ons! Kohls advertised them, actually had them, could put them on my super wide foot, and

they only cost 19.99!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Unhappy event, my freind and Boss at the studio has decidied to take the teacher's lounge and locker storage out and make it her personal office!

I am very upset about this. We are not welcome in there unless her door is open! I have worked for her for twelve years and we have always had a

teacher space! She offered no appology and no suloution if we need to step away from the students and parents and a place to hang betewwen classes!!!!!!!!! I know she is under extreme pressure and finacial callapse, but without the support of her teachers there would be no students and no studio! I am haveing a hard time "not" being angry about this. I also do office work on thursdays and I am not sure where I am supposed to do the work now?

Jules opens the Tiki Bar every friday afternoon/evening so we can all have a virtual happy hour. She's the best!

BTW Jules, what about you - what were your good and bad things this week?

Woohoo! Spring break here! (I actually got to start early, thanks to snow and ice last night. LOL!) It is melting now, and the sun is shining, but it is cold! Best thing about this week was it was short. The thing that got on my last nerve is the mess our administration is making of our school...moving 7th and 8th graders to the high school and not involving teachers in the planning until after the fact. We will have to make it work, but it is a nightmare!

Aw....bummer, Trish! I just spent the past two weekends dealing with that crap. Hope you feel well soon!

What made me happy was my eldest son actually looking forward to going to a different high school than all his friends. It was a tough decision, but he's up for it! Yay!


What got on my nerves this week, was an overly rambunctious kid in my son's gym class. This kid pushed his way to the front of the line, and in the process, knocked over several boys ... my son being one of them. My son fell forward and jammed his knee (patella) right into the corner of a metal door. So, yesterday, we spent the day running from doctor to doctor and getting his knee x-rayed. Geez! Glad to report all is well ... now.



Bartender ... I'll take a cosmo. Need one right about now!



Thanks!!

Ahh, Jules...thanks so much for the strawberry marguerita! It goes down so easiily...


Good thing this week...well, the last 3 days, I have more use of my broken arm. If the ortho thinks it'll heal well on it's own on Tuesday, I won't need further surgery.



Bad thing is a friend from back home whose parents are very ill and her Mom just got worse...and my friend works full time then goes straight to take care of Mom & Dad.. She & DH hardly see each other. Two sisters live 4 hours away but can't be bothered to come back to pitch in.



Another good thing: it feels so good to be back at ACOT and able to type!

The bad or irritating first - NOTHING!!! Yeah!!
It's been a super week...started out with some wonderful, fun new wardrobe pieces.

Earned a ton of Pampered Chef stuff and it arrived - all washed and in place in the reorganized kitchen.

New BoBunny product arrived - got to play with it!!

Learned about a new skin care program (new to me, called Arbonne) and I seriously think I am going to become a consultant as the samples are doing wonders!

Had a day off to play with the kiddos yesterday - they're on spring break.

Off early today for my b-day and we're all leaving shortly as the family has a surprise up their sleeve - I know we're going someplace special to eat out.

I looked in the mirror this morning and thought I looked pretty dang good for my age, once I pulled out the white, wiry hair that was sticking out.



Bartender - I would like a Mango Margarita!! I've never head one - but somehow I just think that sounds DEEE-licious!:inlove:

Hooray for the Tiki Bar!!! I need a double of something strong... let's see, the good for the week was the nice lunch date that Bf and I had yesterday at our favorite Chinese restraunt


The annoying was/is my stupid boss

Well, I need another stiff one bartender!

The happy point is my dd's 6mo. glow from her pregnancy . She starts her Spring break today and we're organizing her closets next week. She has started "nesting"...lol

My last nerve has been pinched quite a bit this week and it takes a lot, let me tell you.

#1 The idiots in the Florida State Senate who have made every move possible to kill public education in this state.

#2 People who can't/won't mind their own business....don't slam someone one month and want them to confide in you the next.

There...I feel tons better!


Oh and another happy time: right here, right now with all of you!

Thank goodness! Keep some wine coming this way!
Been a tough month, and it's only getting tougher. Year-end for an accountant is not fun. And today my boss has been bugging me and I don't have time! Can't baby him over things when I need all the time I can get before the end of the month. Oi. So yes. drinks, drinks and more drinks please!!

I vote yes on more drinks...oh bartender...make mine a double please and see if the girls need their drinks freshened por favor?

ok you know? I think Im going to have one glass of white wine please

I vote yes too!!

What made me happiest is DH's back is finally better. What made me unhappiest is since he's feeling better he's back to making messes. It's cold here, so I'll take something warm, please.

good and bad together....my mother in law retired yesterday.....good for her, might be bad for us.

Jan, how about a hot buttered rum...they are so yummy and warm ya all the way down?
