Wow, I suck - update with pic

So another week went by and I have not come in once to say HI.  I think the problem is, since I got the iPad from my company, I use it in the evenings instead of my laptop and the stupid thing would not let me post anything on the boards. I can see what you write, but not comment.

Storm - I cannot believe this happened to you with Lawson's heart beat. I think my own heart would stop if that happened to me. So happy to hear he is OK.

Hinmighty - 18 days :) you are so close! Do you have your hospital bag packed yet? Do you feel like Vinny will come in on time, or earlier/later?

Louie - great new picture :)

DH and I have finally gotten our stray cats caught and two were taken by our neighbor, and we kept Teddy Tuxedo. I will post pictures tomorrow.

We are also still looking for the house, putting an offer on for another one we saw, keep fingers crossed.

Here is the link to the picture of Teddy Tuxedo. He is 5 months old, and that little mouse on the stick is his socializing toy - he is super stray, so we have to get him used to us, and this is supposed to help :)

Re: Wow, I suck - update with pic

  • Congrats on your new cat!  Definitely post pictures :)

    And fingers are crossed for your house offer!  That's so exciting..  I can't wait until someday H is done with school, and we can actually buy a house.

  • Hey!

    Thanks for the shoutout!

    I cannot wait to see a picture of the new baby kitty. 

    I hope you guys find a house soon.

    Oh and BTW I am so jealous of the ipad! (If you want to post from there, I think it is like the iphone... you go to settings then safari thenturn off java and you should be able to post.

    We miss you!  

  • Totally jealous of your Ipad.  I am really hoping that Santa brings me one this year.  Good luck on the house!
    my read shelf:
    Robin's book recommendations, liked quotes, book clubs, book trivia, book lists (read shelf)
  • I am in mobile advertising sales and got the iPad to be able to show what our ads look like on mobile (phones, or tablets). To be honest, I have never been an Apple girl and for the last three years I worked for Apple's major competitor. I downloaded a few apps like Words with Friends, a calculator of advertising spend, and a QR code reader. Not sure what else to download. I am free to use it as my personal device, but will be expected to give it up if I leave the company. It definitely helps with checking my email in the evening - so light. What else you recommend I download? 
  • Howdy!!  

    Yes for sure getting close now!  I can not wait to have this child out of me lol!  I was having regular Braxton Hicks contractions this morning - like averaging about 5 minutes apart and around a minute each from 6:45 till about 9:30.  But they weren't painful... so I motivated myself and they started to wean.  I was really hoping that it would have lead to going into labor, but no such luck!!  I will be sure to keep you ladies updated though :-)

    We are in the market for a table, but my DH would never buy an IPad haha!  He is a die hard Microsoft fan! 

    Your kitty is SUPER adorable!!!!  I love the picture :-) 

    We have been house hunting too... it's kind of a pain in the rear.  We had an offer in on a house last week that was accepted, but came to the realization that the house needed more work than we are willing to pay for right now.  So we are back to the grindstone.  We are actually going out tomorrow morning to check out a house.  I hope we find something soon because I would rather not be house hunting with a newborn.  Our lease is up on our apartment in December too.  I will be KMFX for you that you find the right house and everything gets accepted!!

  • Wow, that does sound like you were going into labor already. I hope Vinny doesn't tease you too much in the next two weeks. I love Microsoft too :) although I have to admit Google technology is smart and pretty too. Android phones are brilliant and you don't have to pay for most of the apps. iPad is beautiful, but feels limiting. It's like a computer, but I can't save files to desktop and attach them to emails, so it's annoying to use it for business. Crossing fingers that you find a home before Vinny comes. It would be great to set up a nursery just for his arrival :) definitely keep us updated.
  • Glad to hear all you ladies are doing well!  

    I'm not sure if someone shared this info yet, but if you want to post from an ipad, you can either

    1) turn off java script in your settings;  or

    2) click reply and then the html button at the top.  It will open a new window where you can type your reply.  When you are done, hit the word wrap button in the upper right hand corner, and  then update in the lower left.  

     

    Hope this helps!
