Hiccups and other random bits
- I’ve got the hiccups. I’ve had them three nights in a row now.
- I hate hiccups. Mine are the painful, move your whole body type, not the dainty little *hic* that some women get. And I have no pickle juice.
- The girls are arguing over who has to put away the last of the dishes. Just another night of family fun.
- We gave Ducky her own set of keys – she loves it, she says she feels so grown up.
- Squirt turns 14 in 5 days — I have to say that 12 and most of 13 has really sucked for us. She’s moody, temperamental and snappish. When she’s not behaving this way she’s very sweet and lots of fun, unfortunately since she hit her pre teen / teen age years, a lot of moody was thrown in. Not fun.
- Duckman arrives on Thursday – let the countdown continue.
- I missed the premier of my all time favorite show – NCIS. It was set up to record with the DVR, but we had to reset the DVR this week and guess what? I didn’t even think of resetting all my recording —- AAARRRRRGGGHHHHH.
- Lunch today with a friend from Maui – then some shopping.
- I love Target. I missed it while I was gone.
- Worked out at the gym this evening, haven’t gone much in the last two weeks so I was feeling it!
- Went out this morning in shorts, t-shirt and slippahs (aka flip flops for you non-hawaiin folks) and froze my tushie off. We I got back home I changed into warmer clothes.
- I’m going to freeze this winter.
- I love the cooler weather, I can’t wait for fall to really get here.
- Balloon Fiesta starts in a couple weeks, that should be cool and some good pictures should result.
- I have to clean/ organize and store files tomorrow – Ugh, what fun.
- We bought a super heavy duty shedder that should make that task if not easier, than at least more entertaining.

thanks for being you and being my friend!!!!!!!:dancingcow:
btw….i hate the hiccups…..i just do
How weird, I had the hic-ups tonight, mine never last long thought so not a big deal. I’ve never found a cure, mine just go away.
I love the comic Zits!
I take in a breath and keep taking in smaller breaths and keep pushing it down until I feel the pressure in my diaphram.Then I hold it as long as I can. It almost always works for me.
I have a sure fire way to get rid of hiccups. Make yourself really burp. Soda does the trick for me. Once you really belch, the hiccups will stop.
About NCIS, one of my favorites too, if you go to cbs.com, I believe you can watch whole episodes of shows. I’ve done it with CSI before. It’s a small screen but at least you won’t miss the show!
chug water and belch like a mad woman. :frog:
I hope those hiccups go away soon. That is not fun!
Oh man, when Jeffrey was in those pre-teen years, there was no living with him. What a temper! We spent years walking on eggshells. It was awful. It does get better though. Hang in there.
My favorite cure for hiccups? Hold my breath or drink soda. The key is to BURP!!!!!
OH no you missed NCIS? I have it on the DVR. Haven’t watched it yet but when I got home from Reno yesterday that was the first thing I checked. Made sure all my shoes had recorded. I love the new fall season. Yikes on the set of car keys. I guess for me I am just going to have to accept the fact that this is a natural progression and my baby is going to drive eventually. Still scares me though. Sorry about the hiccups. I don’t get dainty ones either.
I always drink a glass of water to get rid of hiccups or eat a piece of bread. Never heard of drinking pickle juice though.
RYC: Oh you know what food really gets me? Eggplant….ugh!!!!
Oh sounds exciting…for her, and now she has access to car. I’m beginning to have a bit of an understanding of how my mom felt when I started gaining my independence.
Hiccups: I rarely get them and I usually just try to make myself belch
However, I’ve seen people literally flip their bodies upside down and drink water fast, hold their breaths, try to get themselves spooked…
i use to get hiccups every wed. before church. i desided that it was due to having to go to chruch and was psychological. i never get them anymore
i watched the episode you missed. i don’t remember much but a dead body floating in the ocean at the end. it wasn’t any of the regular peoples.
Yuck, hiccups. The only thing that seems to work for me is holding my breath or chugging some water. Success rate is pretty hit or miss though.
RYC: http://www.scrapgirls.com is my favorite site for help and digital products. And I print my books using CM Photo Center (link to it through my website… http://www.mycmsite.com/angiecampbell)
Todays the day huh….
Maybe you could “accidentally” drop some super glue in ducky’s lap…
new age chastity belt!
I take a tsp of pure sugar. It sounds gross but it always works for me. Did you get to see NCIS yet?
RYC: I hear that. Some days I just don’t feel like posting it. I am glad he arrived safe though. I am sure they are having a blast. How’s the driving? I have to find out about all the classes for Sonny boy. (I really need a good nickname for him on here. Any ideas?)
My life is so incredibly boring it isn’t even funny and so when the net is boring too, that’s pretty bad.
I hate the hiccups! I always manage to have the loud, shake your whole body type, too. CSI was good, but I’ve never watched NCIS.
RYC His myspace is AJ. Not real creative though. He likes science. Maybe I should call him Bio Dude. Hey I kinda like that.
holding my breath while drinking a glass of water always works for me.
