I'm eating a susage McGriddle thanks to my work husband, and it is exactly what I needed this morning.

I got suckered into spending $90 on moisturizer by a family member who is selling the stuff. The jar is seriously only 1 oz. For a little more money, I could've just bought La Mer (not that I would). I have to think of a good excuse to not buy it again.

And it's only 9:15 a.m. and I'm starving.
But you put up a good fight. She certainly was persistent.
For the first time ever my husband actually gave me his cold. We have always joked how we are immune to each other because over the last 5 years we've both had various cases of colds, flus, strep throat, etc... but have NEVER given it to the other one. Grrr....

Say you got a rash.
That's the excuse my MIL is using. I have to think of something different. I may just say that I can't afford 1 oz. of $90 moisturizer.

It's grocery day. I love grocery day. I hate put groceries away though. But the grocery store!! I love it. Maybe it's because it's a small locally owned organic grocery store and not huge like the stores I used to go to. But the grocery week always starts off with really good intentions. Ah, look at all the smoothie ingredients I'm buying! Salads all week! Apples and almond butter for snacking. But then, somewhere in the middle of the week I go back to the store and end up in the chip aisle. At least half of my week is good.

My oldest cat (gray kitty in siggy--he's 16) was highly vexed over the fact that he couldn't sit on my lap last night. At the time, my lap was submerged in water in the bathtub, and he could NOT figure out why he could see me sitting there, but this invisible, wet boundary was in his way. It was kind of hilarious. He kept putting his paws on the side of the tub, stretching one out to me, then putting them back on the floor, paced a bit, and tried again. At one point he tried to test the barrier--did not like that.
@MrsJenE Could you just tell her that you have a favorite that you prefer?
I DID! And my preferred brand is only $38! But she's super pushy and H told me to buy something to support her endeavor. I don't think he realized what that entailed.

I'm kind of envious of your husband's support. Whenever I get invited to something like that, J gives me a stern look and tells me not to buy shit I won't use. It's obnoxious because he's right. I still have Tastefully Simple stuff from two years ago.
I'm going to see Wicked with my Mum in Toronto on Saturday and am super excited! As much of a musical junky as I am, this will be my first time seeing this production.
I'm also planning to cut most of my hair off on Saturday! eeek! It's down to my mid-back right now and just out of control because it's so thick and heavy, so I've decided to go for a textured, angled bob.
I'm trying to plan Wes's birthday part for next month. I want to do a small dump truck theme, but Pinterest is depressing me.
I'm in the process of planning Will's party and had to just give up on Pinterest. It was stressing me out way more than was necessary and really the only person who will end up caring about the little details is me. The internet has pretty much ruined party planning for the average person.

It's so true.
The internet makes me feel like the biggest failure of a parent ever.

I am seriously considering a Thai appetizer sampler for lunch. Chicken satay, golden pouch (which is a delicious crab rangoon), and spring rolls. I have no intentions of sharing.

@MrsJenE - For $90, my face better stay moist until I die.

That sounds so good right now.
I love the location of where I work compared to my house, but there is no place to eat here besides pizza joints, DD and Subway. I WANT THAI!

We've been battling an eye problem with my dog for most of the summer. We thought we had it almost fully healed when she redamaged it and put a hole straight through the cornea. She was scheduled for surgery today to have the eye removed because we thought it was beyond repair.
Lo and behold, the vet thinks it can be saved. It's healed a tremendous amount since he saw it last week. So he's going to sew her eye shut for two weeks to let her body continue doing its work. Hopefully this will go smoothly and we can get the cone off her for good.
Plus we got the new apartment. We go to sign the lease on Monday.
