B&M Monday

Re: B&M Monday

  • Well good vibes for both of you!

    Oh, I thought of my B&M.  Food prices.  They are insane.  I have got to start couponing.  We don't make enough money to spend what I spend on food.  And that's just every day food, not including what I will have to buy for the holidays.

    You aren't lying! It's criminal.

    Whatever I was sick with last weekend was just the beginning of whatever I have this week.  I am sucking it up and paying $140 to go see the dr today at 2:45.

    Breaking Dawn - Even though I waited for almost 3 hours to see it on Thur I even went in with no hopes of it being a good movie.  This was by far the worst movie and not that I expected it but I wish the acting would improve even a smidge.

    I will say I cannot wait for Hunger Games and will be reading the books again before the movie comes out and the actors in that movie actually give me some hope that the movies will be good.

    I'm sad the movie is so bad.

    I can't wait for Hunger Games. A CW and I are thinking of going to the Midnight showing that Thursday! I can barely contain myself. I honestly can't wait!

    Ooh, speaking of shopping..

    We bought our new range and dishwasher this weekend!!  Can't wait for it all to arrive on Friday, just in time for our Thanksgiving festivities on Saturday!  :)

    Wanna share the details?!?!?!  Like what you bought and where you bought it?  I want a new range and dishwasher, but we just can't decide what we want.

    Absolutely.   We had no plans to buy any appliances until after the first of the year when we are getting our countertops done, but Home Depot's current appliance ad is unbeatable.

    We got a basic (but with great reviews!) GE Range in black for $348.  That's almost $100 less than we have seen it anywhere and I've been browsing for months.  Link:  http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&productId=100597011&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&cm_ite=circular&cm_sp=shoplocal_catalog-_-manual_feed&cm_ven=cheese&locStoreNum=1505

    While we were there, we perused dishwashers and found a black Maytag on sale for $298.   The buttons are at the top, and all that you see on the front is the handle, so I wasn't concerned with the mismatched brands.  Link:  http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-100679673/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053&superSkuId=202717113

    Since we bought 2 appliances together, we also got an extra $50 off the total.

    We considered stainless in all of our decisions, but... I just really didn't want to deal with it...and decided that black would look great with the countertop choices we are considering.

    Good deal! We have black for the same reason. I couldn't justify the price difference for something that was going to be more work for me anyway. :)

    Today is my GTKY day over on GP, so if you get bored come re-live my wedding, look at pics of Titan and see me being an AW. I also received my new bling on Friday, silver = too much time on the Nest!

    Re: Breaking Dawn, I am going tomorrow night - this was my LEAST favorite book, so I didn't have high hopes for the movie anyway. Fun times with drinking, friends and werewolves will be had though, so it's all good.

    AETA:   Eureka, I found it.  I was on the TTGP on the Bump.  It's confusing.

  • Hey all!  Not too much to B&M, this weekend was pretty good.  I got to have one last dinner with my friend before she leaves for Japan for 2 years. 

    I downloaded the Hunger Games books last Tuesday and am almost done with all three books, it was nice to relax and read this weekend.

    Lacey - Glad to hear the move went well and Tiffany yay for new appliances and the hypothetical situation!

    Say...what days are you leaving again?  There might be a break-in at the kennel. 

    I'm just sayin'.

  • It bugs the living crap out of me when a parent calls on behalf of their child.  They are in college.  It is their homework assignment after all.  They should be the one calling around trying to figure it out.  "I'm sorry boss, I'm not sure of the answer.  Hold on one moment while I call my mommy."

    Your story about Titan is priceless and hysterical.  I like how you told it in picture essay style...genius call by another poster.

    If I'm totally mistaken, I apologize.

  • Sarah I did the same thing with birthday ice cream cake on Friday.  I failed miserably.  I'm a sucker for ice cream cake.

    Leslie, I love that Titan story!

    I just had my first Boca burger.  It wasn't bad at all.  I kind of liked it actually.  My boss' wife saw me and she said her favorite is Amy's California burger.  I love Amy's so I'll have to try that next.

  • Leslie -I love your story about Titan!!  So cute!

    My B&M - People who can't parallel park but try to over and over again, thus blocking a whole lane of traffic!  If you can't get it after 2-3 tries...MOVE ON!! 

  • I am glad you girls liked the Titan story. My wedding story is up now. I have to work on my vacation story next. I love this GTKYN day...it's going by really fast because the posts take so long to make.

    Stephie - Speaking of jobs, I thought about you the other day. Bliss Bridal was looking for a consultant for Saturdays. If only, you weren't so far away...haha.

    Tiffany - ummm...we are leaving tonight and coming back Wednesday. :P

  • I don't have much to B&M about - other than I totally agree about food prices being ridiculous. DH and I went shopping for T-day ingredients and spent WAY TOO MUCH. When we offered to host Thanksgiving dinner, I probably should have factored in the expense. 

    Exciting news - my SIL is (hopefully) getting induced this afternoon, so I should have another niece/nephew by tomorrow! They don't know the sex of the baby, and already have two girls....so we're all curious to know if it's going to be an all-pink Princess christmas :0)

  • Leslie - Love the stories.  :)

    At first I opened the wrong link.  I swear I have no idea what goes on over there.  This is what I saw:

     I decided to SWRG and I thought 25GHR, but after another look FGHR, which is possible because 98GRD was less than 87IUE.  So, after all that I was TUEQ!

    ;)  I kid.  I know some day I will understand.

    Holy cow.  I'd never make it over there.  I could barely figure out GTKYD.

    Haha, I made all of those up.  :)  But, it really is just as confusing.

    I just got through reading your vacation post and a new email popped up from Living Social for a trip to South Africa!

    Great timing! All I know about South Africa is that there is a girl in my math class who is from there and she is a real B. That was mean, but it's also true...lol.

    I'm out of things to AW on GP...I think I was supposed to break the TTC story, DH and Me, etc. into separate posts...but that's a lot of work!

  • OMG! OMG! Y'ALL!!! I just got a 94 on my math test. I have literally gotten a score in the 60's or barely passed the other 3 tests. I am seriously dancing in my office.

  • Go Leslie! I also seriously want to go on a safari, but DH is not into it. He thinks it would be too dangerous. No
  • WOW a lot happened during lunch.. Leslie what does the acronyms mean? Running to go look at the post.
