I sometimes really regret that I didn't date more before I got married. I got married at 21 and missed some prime dating/flirting time. Now I just live vicariously through others lol.
My Bunn (coffee maker) broke earlier today. I just went in bought a new one. If I would have ordered it online I could have saved a decent amount but I wanted it NOW!!!
I thought everyone was asking about Blissanity in yesterday's post about Blessed. I was so confused wondering why everyone was talking about how much they love her because Bliss doesn't usually get a whole lot of love when she posts. Finally someone mentioned Africa and things started making much more sense.
My cousin posted about the anniversary of D Day and not to forget to honor our grandfathers and great grandfathers. Then some asswipe posted about how we definitely should keep our flags at half mast due to Mandela's death, because we wouldn't have elected such an awesome president if it weren't for what Mandela did in his life. Totally TIC. I am fighting telling this guy he is a disrespectful asshole.
Until I figured out that tiC is tongue in cheek (it is right?), I couldn't see what was disrespectful and was confused. Also confused about D-day but I'm guessing you meant Pearl Harbor? I've had too much wine,
I went to Goodwill today to drop some stuff off, and ran in on a whim to see if there were any work shirts for DH. I ended up buying this massive Imaginext bat cave thing for DS for $3 (it's just the structure, missing a few small pieces). He's been asking for it, but it wasn't on his original Christmas list and we already finished shopping. It's available at Amazon for $62. He has plenty of action figures in that brand that work with the toy, but I'm now looking at Amazon to get him the specific ones for it. So, you know, I "saved" $59 on something we didn't need anyway, but I'm about to spend another $15.

I watched Pitch Perfect for the first time the other day. Cute movie. Then yesterday I had DH download the cups video in hd so I could learn the cup part. 1/3 of the way there! I am the world's largest nerd.

I should be writing my TPA. It is due Tuesday at 5pm to my credential program director. I'm not even half way done. I should have been done weeks ago but I've been procrastinating. Ugh. I will get it done before tomorrow afternoon but its just so much reading and writing and repeating myself over and over and over.
My grandma told me to pick out a winter coat and she would send me the money for it. The only parameters she set was don't pick something that was $500. The one I like and told her I wanted is $260.
Aw Tamb. Disciplining your kids is always tough. There's always this mass of guilt that hovers over you for a little while--at least for me. Even more so when they're little. I've had to put Layla who is 2 in timeout a couple times and I've raised my voice. She bursts into tears and it makes me feel bad because I feel she doesn't really understand why she's in trouble, but I know she'll learn. Don't even get me started on the time I swiped at her arm because she had closed the door on Mariam's finger after I had repeatedly told her to stop opening and closing the door. Felt like The. Worst. Parent. Ever.
DH is much softer than I am with the kids. It takes a lot to make him angry, but for the most part we are on the same page--except when he becomes a know it all who apparently has reared 10 children in a previous life.
Speaking of crushes, I live next to a church and there is an after-school program there- one of the dads is kinda hot. I saw him when I was walking the dog one afternoon and now I'll often just "happen" to look out the window at pick-up time.

i don't think i could swing because it would make me jealous.. but i think it's awesome for anyone that can without causing an issue in their relationship!
