Say Anything part 27

Re: Say Anything part 27
It is a good think you have very thick hair.
And...... DH was on his way home and took a baseball off the hood of his car. A few more inches and it would have hit the windshield.
We just can't catch a break today.
Oh so sorry Kimmer.
If DH lays on the couch one more night while playing on the internet while I work on miscellaneous moving-type stuff I'm going to explode. When I ask him about it, he says, "Hey, we have 4 weeks. That's plenty of time."
Am I crazy? Cause I've been packing and making lists and getting ready. Cause we'll be out of town one weekend and are busy on lots of week nights. AND we have 2 children that apparently like to eat and be taken care of. With that in mind... it just doesn't seem like that long.
So, am I needing to chill the heck out? Or is doing stuff early normal and smart?
(disclaimer: I'm not packing until all hours of the night. I have packed 1 box a day and have made a moving check-list and a meal-plan for the next month. Plus getting rid of more stuff. That's it.)
M&M - You are so smart the way you are doing it. It will be less stressful that way!
Sometimes I forget how obsessive I get when I get an idea in my head. Last night I wondered about turning our dining room that we never use into a workout room and buying a treadmill. That is now all I can think of.
Crazy Christmas Kids!
sounds like you caught a break when it didn't hit the windshield, my friend! i'm sorry about your billing issues, that is always a crazy thing to try and get straightened out.
i'm annoyed at the everpresent overuse of ellipses in our message board society... not every single sentence is leading into the next sentence... sometimes you really can just end a thought... without pretending it somehow leads unwillingly into the sentence to follow... but the worst is the inappropriate use of ellipses at the end of a paragraph... it's like "to be continued..." but with nothing actually ever continuing...

I agree. I, however, work better under extreme pressure and would wait until the last week, throw things in boxes, toss half of the crap we've accumulated and not sleep for 3 days.
And it would all probably be done better than if I planned ahead.

Sorry lady...I am pretty sure I am one of the annoying ones...
Me too...
Um, I hear ya. The hospital bill for me so far....$70K (it seems to climb every few days). Emily's hasn't even been posted to the hospital billing website yet......
OUCH.
I know I am. There is surprisingly so much more I could say because my mind just keeps on going. Be grateful that I stop where I do, Jax...

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'm an offender. But I like the "dot dot dot."
Thanks ladies. I didn't think I was nuts, but sometimes, like someone else mentioned, I get a wee bit obsessive about an idea.
Kreeper -- that's totally what he'd do, too. And it'd drive me crazy.
Jax -- I know I'm an offender. And actually, I tend to go back and take most of mine out. Sadly enough.
OMG. I can't even imagine. Thank goodness for the OOP max (assuming you've got something like that). How stressful.
My OB is trying to make me pre-pay for a c-section. So far, there are absolutely no indications that I would need to have a c-section. Her argument is that is my doctor must have told the lady that does billing that I'll be having a c-section. Uh, probably a conversation he would have had with me at some point, no?
:-( boo!
I feel like I need to give DH credit. He feels badly about how much work I've been doing so:
* He ordered my favorite pizza tonight just for me.
* He's planning a date for us tomorrow. All by himeself. And he's handling ALL details.
DH was saying that when we had a week left. He didn't see the big deal since we had seven whole days left to move from state to state. So clearly I think you (and therefore I) are the normal ones.
That drives me bats. I have a friend who NEVER uses periods. Always ellipses.
Does she sound like that chick Penelope from SNL? "So... I'm better than you..." Where the end of every question trails off and sort of sounds like a question?

WARNING: PITY PARTY
I hate it when people grow apart. I absolutely love my bff but since she divorced I feel like I don't fit in her world. She is constantly partying (and has a boyfriend who has kids so it's not like she is looking). It's like if I don't want to spend a lot of time at the bar, I don't fit in her world.
And I can't even complain that she is changed. I'm the one that changed. We MET at the Westheimer street festival... drinking. We became friends through another friend of ours who I met at my college watering hole. They also met there. What is different is that friend and I have settled into our family life and while we love to have girls nights and get our drink on, we also really really enjoy being with our families and just having a glass of wine at home while the kids play. (But she lives in OK so those girls nights are like once a year tops).
I was seeking out her advice about hair during the week and even told her I had the big hair appointment on Saturday. I invited her to take our kids to go pick strawberries together. Never heard back from her and she has commented on several other friends' posts on FB throughout the weekend, but not mine. Maybe she hates it and if you can't say something nice you don't say anything. But gosh - I had a real emotional attachment to the mane of hair - I'm a LEO - I mean it was a big part of my identity. And it's going to charity. And my BFF can't even return a call or even comment on FB but is partying it up with others there.
Makes me sad.
Ok Pity Party over.

Last day in Australia. I should be out seeing sights, eating delicious food & getting some sun before my plane leaves in 12 hours.
But no. DH locked the house up tight before he went to work this morning & forgot to leave me a key. I'm locked in. And he hasn't answered his phone for the past 5 hours.
that would make me CRAZY.
- Paula Deen to 104.1 KRBE's Producer Eric 9/17/2011
So not cool. Hopefully he answers his phone soon!
