My goal for the day is not to smash the phone into itty bitty pieces.

Right now I'm thinking it's 50-50 if I achieve it or not.

Been there. Done that. Smashed the phone into rather large chunks...

What's up hon'?

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

It's hot.. Hot hot icky hot and I don't have AC. And I'm trying to figure out bills and if we've been charged twice for some of the stuff for son's broken arm (it's confusing because each department bills separately) and the phone keeps ringing with telemarketers and wrong numbers and the cat just threw up and there is no chocolate in the house.

Aren't you glad you asked?

(I don't have any doughnuts to Hand I'm afraid.)
That sounds like a rough day *snuggles you* It's been very hot over here today as well - the dog and I walked home at lunchtime dodging from one bit of shade to the next.

*noms* today is one of those days I'm glad we don't have a dog. It's 35 Celsius here according to mr online converter thing. And humid. And icky.

But at least you're getting exercise?

Re: *sends pastries*

[mad-jaks.livejournal.com]

On the plus side it is not humid here.

Yes, getting exercise *nods* (and if I'm walking I can't fall off the bike again.)

Re: *sends pastries*

Ouch. Falling off bike is not a good thing.

I know - and I've done it twice in the last week (yesterday simply because I missed putting my foot on the kerb *after* I had stopped :O).

*yipes* Be careful! You're not allowed to hurt yourself. I declare it so!

Re: *sends pastries*

I think you have missed the boat with that one. But feel free to demand I do not break a bone.

NO BREAKING THINGS ALLOWED!!!!!!

Re: *sends pastries*

Yes, mum. Thanks mum.

Son just got his cast off. No more broken bones for anyone I know. Too stressful

Re: *sends pastries*

[rustydog.livejournal.com]

Good news! I've been wondering about him and his arm.

::thinks safe thoughts for everyone::

Re: *sends pastries*

Thank you!

He has scary looking scar from where they had to put the pin in, but it healed just fine, thankfully and he's even got most of his wrist mobility back and a lot of the muscle tone. Kids heal very easily, thankfully.

Having to wear a cast in the really hot weather would have been a *pain*.

Re: *sends pastries*

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I hadn't even thought of that. Yuck casts would be terrible in high humidity

As a less drastic alternative, could you switch off the ringer?

Though I think this chocolate situation is an emergency - to a store run!

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I did eventually do that but I left the machine on just in case.

It's too soon to when my kids'll be home for a chocolate run, otherwise that'd be an excellent idea.

[rustydog.livejournal.com]

Ugh, you'd have my blessing if you did smash up the phone! Mine has had the ringer turned off since... ::checks calendar:: 2005 because it was going to make me smash up myself.

You have my sympathy about the heat and hospital bill mess as well. ::hugs::

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

And you even have an appropriate icon! *iz impressed*

Phones are just evil. I hate them.

*hugs and sneaks internet-donuts to you*

[nakeisha.livejournal.com]

And did you achieve it?

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I did! But only because I turned the ringer off and covered up the answering machine so I couldn't hear it when people left messages. :)

*Grins*

Well I'm glad it survived and you did too!
