  • Apparently out of the 24 jars of tomatoes I canned the last two nights, only about 6 sealed. I don't wanna start again! :((

    @fabk Ugh that is the worst! I would be so bummed. I tried a new way of canning peaches last week and I was a nervous wreck until I heard all the pops.

  • I get so paranoid about canning until hear the symphony of the pop, pop, pop of sealing.

  • Every now and then I get bored and I look a blog by Andee Layne.  I like her style, and I don't find her too pretentious.  I just want to know what her husband must do for a living.  I know appearances can be deceiving, but I'm pretty much green with envy at her lifestyle.

    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.
    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.
    @MrsJenE - For $90, my face better stay moist until I die.
    I HATE the word "moist."  ::shudder::
    Do you prefer dewy?
    Infinitely.

    Even "moisturized."  I can handle that.
    I love the icked out reaction to the word moist. It doesn't bother me as much as slacks. Slacks is the worst word ever.

  • We just spend $2500 on a couch, love seat, and recliner, and once we got them in our house I HATED them. My husband picked them out, and he likes big poofy things, especially if they have cup holders. In the store, I thought I'd be all unselfish and let him pick something he wanted. In the store, they didn't look that bad. At home, they are huge and hideous and horrible. But I made a big deal about telling him he could pick them out, so I really can't tell him I want to send them back.

  • My hair straightner gave out today.  Of course I didn't realize it until I'd made a frizzy mess of my hair with the blow dryer thinking I would just fix it with the straightner.      #-o

  • @booknerd226 @SnShne322 I heard popping but it must have been false popping because all those lids are bubbled up. I have a foodsaver so I will try that first and reboil and sanitize and everything if that doesn't work. Ugh. I was really looking forward to relaxing tonight.

    Such a bummer. :( I had that happen one year and was so irritated about it. Hopefully this time it turns out better and you can relax over the weekend.
