Bubble Up and Bubble Down....


At dinner, we sometimes do the bubble up and bubble down game. Everyone talks about one good thing and one bad thing that happened that day to them or in their lives. It has been a great way to talk about issues and feelings.

What's your bubble up and bubble down today?

My bubble up: My husband made breakfast this morning: Biscuits and Gravy and fried eggs. My kids have been quiet and non argumentative so far today

No bubble down for the day, yet. But it's early.... ;)

I'm unfamiliar with "biscuits and gravy" - I take it they're different from cookies? And that he seldom frequents the kitchen?

Corrected a bug I had been stuck with many hours yesterday.
Tried to look up at the sky and couldn't stop constant eye spasms.

How do you get by with just one each? Or do you take turns, perchance?

Still waking up trying to find where I'm wearing my humor today - seem to shift when I sleep.

Bubble up? Woke up to sunshine trying to burn off the morning mist.

Bubble down? Same messy house, dirty dishes, dirty laundry, and same joint pains in fingers and toes.

Good job with the HOA. See, it helps to take your nose out of a book once in awhile.

Actually- I REALLY need to get my nose back into a book. I used to read a book a day. Now it's been years since I've cracked one open. :(

Biscuits here are a bread that is harder than a dinner roll but not a cookie.
He does cook occasionally. Mostly I do, though, because he works FT and I'm a stay at home mom

Yep...one each at the beginning; and it opens conversation; shares feelings and solicits help, even if just verbal comfort. But it also alerted us (as the kids grew) to things going on in their lives.

Kids actually have as many of each as they need....and they understand that taking too long means you are taking time away from someone else. Very similar to "special time," that we instituted when the third was born. Because it seemed that with the 3rd, very little time was spent with the first 2...and they started to act out. So each day, I would spend 15 minutes with each....if new baby was crying and it wasn't serious, he could keep crying...and nobody interrupted the time. We would usually color or play "Candy Land" or some such, but they would talk, they would feel special, they would have their one on one time. If the other sibling interrupted this time, they lost their "special time" for that day.

"Special time" has evolved to "Special Days," in which during odd months, husb takes each of the four kids on a one on one date and during even months, I do. For the same reasons: to build the relationship and get them to talk about what might be an issue in their lives. We exclude December and March

My bubble up: after years of not doing so, I started back up with a gym membership in Nov. I've been going REGULARLY since first week of Jan. Went to buy some new jeans yesterday, and they are a size smaller. Granted, they're "stretchy jeans," but still.... ๐Ÿ˜Š

I have a HUGE bubble down.

Had a room mate for a while and he moved out. We were good with no room mates, or just the one who is there now, but this older woman I have known for years asked to move in.

I said okay and we moved her stuff in today. As we were moving it in, bugs were falling off her stuff in droves!

She has bed bugs! And knew it and said nothing! And it's so bad that her job told her to not come back!

Bed bugs are not easily succumbed by chemicals.

I would suggest diatomaceous earth. It is easily dealt with by humans but is not kind to any small bugs. It basically cuts their limbs and heads off, even babies.

You've got to allocate some time for it seriously. The more tasks you have, the more likely to overflow the lowest priority out of existence.

No fault of yours.

The box says: "Open other side."

So I turn it around -

"edis rehto nepO"

- and open it, which has nothing to do with the proper side.

This is funny... LOL

A box has 2 ENDS and 4 SIDES. I have seen boxes say "Open on other SIDE" but they always flip it 180 degrees to open the other END.
Never have I seen someone actually open a SIDE!

Bubble down, I didn't get a good result with my bank, and I've just discovered work has put today through as abscent rather than a holiday day off so I just lost out on a days wage.

That's great news :) Often when I buy something from someone who works on commissions, I will ask them when the best time to make the purchase would be....they might be far away from their "goal" one week, but close the next.

Awww....that sucks about your job. What a load of crap that they didn't count it as a holiday, but....still good to have a day off and do things you want to do and an unexpected "relax" day

All I can say is that it's a good thing you ordered it NEW. Learning a lot about my issue of late, and buying things USED is a major risk factor. And a desk and chair is the first place I noticed the little critters....ugh

Can you adjust the chair??

Bubble Up: Work declared a snow day- so working from home today!

Bubble Down: It's a coworkers last day, and I wanted to say goodbye properly, but snow day means we're all at home.

(To be honest, there isn't much snow, just enough to make the roads slick and give you the worry that some bad driver that's not paying attention will come sliding into you- that fear is escalated when you're on a motorbike. ๐Ÿ˜… But since we're a software company, there is no need to really be in the office anyway except for meetings, which I'm quite glad to get out of.)

Why do you have to pay for the hotel?

Soco got it right:

Just being kind I suppose and to feel a little less guilty for kicking her out.

soco wrote:
How long are you willing to pay the hotel bill, @PepperJ ?

Maybe a month(?)

soco wrote:
And after she moves from the hotel, please be so kind to inform the hotel of the bug issue. They are obviously traveling with her.

Planned on calling them.

But thid lady spends all day every day at one of the public libraries in town and goes to the movies every Tuesday..... knowing this makes ME not want to leave my house!

Kindness is okay, enabling isn't. I can't apologize for feeling that you can be homeless and still not spread bugs. Pepper putting your family first isn't selfish.
Crap girl...I'm still scratching...lol.

The REALLY GOOD THING is that it seems as if the bugs were contained to her room and just outside it. No sign of bugs in the room down the hall from "ground zero" and no bugs or signs of anywhere on main level or 2nd floor.
So I don't feel that itchy๐Ÿ˜Š

When I realized it, which is when we were MOVING HER IN, I asked her to stay in the one room and I got 90% of her stuff into big black trash bags and out of the house.
Put down the diatomacious earth and called an exterminator, who arrived 2 days later.

So, I minimized, isolated, and didn't procrastinate about calling a pro.

I think that helped me, my kids and husb., and the other room mate feel "okay" about the situation

Lol.... IDK about doubling. The expensive homes have to start leveling out soon....

And doubling is only good if and when you sell, which I don't plan on doing โ˜บ
