Re: Whatever You Want Wednesday!

  • My MIL tested positive for strep yesterday.  And I've been hanging out with her for the last three days.  Greeeeeeeeeeeeat.

    Hopefully you won't end up with it!

  • I spent too much money at Target yesterday!! I need to decide what to return and it's so hard!!! I need to retun at least half the stuff, if not more!!

     

  • Amber and Haddie's hair on Parenthood is just bad.

    Both of my canvas prints also came in.

  • I am SO sleepy. 

    Really, that's all I've got.   *yawn*

  • I'm having a tougher time than I thought I would with adjusting after the move. I compartmentalize it all, but kind of had a little outburst last night that made me realize it's taken a toll. DH is in Chicago and sent me a photo of him out with friends - I responded with a snarky comment. Not fair and very unkind of me. Boo.

    Awesome, do you love them?  Can you show me a picture of them? I'm going to order ours hopefully by this weekend! 

     

  • It's a good day! It rained on me!

    Brianna - Hope you don't get it.

    Jaymi - I would love to see it too. I ordered one now I just need to find the recepit cause I think we finally picked a picture to use.

    I totally missed Parenthood. I didn't realize it came back already! I'll have to catch up on Hulu and I'll get back to you!

  • We're going to Stillwater on Friday, and driving the rest of the way up to Kansas on Saturday. Normally, I dread this drive, because we're not super close with Mack's family and it's always really awkward. This time, I am MEGA looking forward to it... but only because it means that for six hours, I get to sit still and not have to worry about email or anything. Forced family time is the best. :)

    DH was really excited about how the pic in my sigggy came out but not so much the other one because it shows so much detail like every single beard hair.  He said we will stick that one up far away so no one can get too close to it LOL.  I asked for them to wrap around the image for the side and they did that to the first one but they blurred out the second one.  I guess they had to do what looked best.

    I will *try* to email you a picture if you will PM me your email address.  I will try to do it tonight but if not, I will get it to you tomorrow night as I get home late tonight.  Heck, with my skills with our new camera, it might be easier and quicker to meet and show you them in person  Wink

    I can't say stock up on, there wasn't a whole lot left at the plano store when I was able to take break from work at 9:30!!

    But still managed to make it to two other targets at lunch and buy a few things, brought them home and reallized I did get caught up in the moment and bought things I wan't planning on.

    Here is my loot,

    I hope everything goes well for you.  How often do you have to see his family?

  • I confess that I had never even heard of Missoni before KKITM discussed it this morning.  I was even at Target yesterday.

    You are not alone.  What is the big deal about Missoni anyways?

    Love love love. You actually did pretty good considering how quickly everything flew off the shelves!! My friend works at Tgt Headquarters and she said that their server shut down yesterday as soon as the online Missoni stuff went on the site!!

  • It is pouring right now.  I was wanting to get our rain barrels set up before the next big storm...looks like I missed it.  I would also like you all to know that I may have to walk in this madness in a bit and I am not saddened by it whatsoever so if it stops raining, it's not because of me this time ;)
  • Those little hats are adorable!

    Not very often at all. We see his parents three or four times a year, and grandparents typically 2 or three times a year. This visit will hopefully be easier because it's just us & the kids visiting Mack's grandparents... no MIL involved! :)

  • I am not a Missoni fan. Just not my style. For those who like it though, woo hoo Target!

    It took an hour and 45 minutes to get to school this morning. It normally takes 45. Luckily I left really early, unluckily I lost that bonus study time.

    I have a baby shower this weekend for my cousin. The entirety of my mother's female family members from my great-grandmother on down will be there. I am trying to think of non-sarcastic and non-bitter responses for why we havent conceived yet because I know after the 5th inquiry I will be running thin on fake nice. Any suggestions?

  • I keep hoping that I am not going to get it.  I am trying to will myself to stay healthy... but alas, fever is going up, throat is hurting, body aches...

    DANG IT.  I don't have time for this.

    Please explain?? I'll heard the rerun tomorrow morning, but I swear I need to bring my radio player to the train from now on.

    I'm not a Missoni fan either, but I think it's cool Target got it!

    I would say stuff like, "well, I'm just getting over a nasty drug habit"  or "eh, I really hate children" or something so awkward they have no choice but to stop pestering.

  • Brianna: Water, orange juice, airborne...

     It's not raining here, yet, I hope it doesn't miss us.  I love rain.

    My throat started hurting last week and Mark gave me a small shot of whiskey to gargle.  I did this morning and night for 2 days and it was gone. :)

     I had a friend go through this - her response was always along the lines of "It's not up to us, it's up to God/He'll bless us when He's ready".  I know how high pressure female family gatherings can be, I hope it turns out better than expected!

    "Didn't know you were so interested in our sex lives."  If you will go over to Family Matters, they have tons of these situations and the most hilarious responses.

    I used to be a man, so I don't have a uterus.

    That's nice that you can have separate visits...we don't have that luxury as they all live together and we can't visit separately.
