Thankful Thursday & Other Thursday Randoms

[MrsMB]

I'm thankful for some SUNSHINE today!!!

[estrellita]

I'm thankful there's no snow on the ground! This time last year I was shoveling my way out of parking spots and there was like 2 feet of snow on the ground. It's been an actual fall this year and I'm so happy about that! This year I park in the ramp, have a garage and carpool with H so it's going to be sooo much better when it does come!

It's extremely windy here today, with gusts up to 70mph. I saw shingles on the ground this morning, but I don't know if they are ours or blew over here.

Today I'm thankful for having a warm home to get out of the elements. I'm also thankful for my town library and their excellent dvd selection!

[katiek]

I'm so thankful that my ILs are lending us one of their cars for a few weeks! Having two cars is not a luxury we can afford now or any time soon, but having the freedom to drive places during the day while H is at work is SO nice. Today we're going to the fabric store and the library

Today I'm thankful for Starbucks - I slept like crap. It was SO windy and DS was awake once, then I had to pee, then couldn't go back to sleep for a long time. Yay caffeine!

It's super windy here today, too.

I'm thankful for the mild weather we have been having this year. I hope it continues! The past few winters have been brutal with the frigid temps.

[estrellita]

suzv totally agree. I could do without the constant below zero temps this year! Please! It's been so bad the last couple years!

[anyastroud]

I'm jealous of your sunshine. It is blustery and chilly here today. 

I'm thankful I'm employed, paid hourly + commission.

DITTO!

I'm thankful for our garage too. It's so much easier to load in and out without worrying about the rain, wind, or future snow. Love it!

Also thankful for the poor, but lovely, nursery worker who took care of M's massive blowout this morning while I enjoyed brunch in peace. Haha.

estrellita I hear you on the no snow! It's almost thanksgiving and narry a flurry. Amazing!

katiek I could not be a SAHM without a car. Literally, I would have had a break down long ago. We go out every day, sometimes multiple times. Did you get any fun fabrics?

[pooh8402]

I hate spending money to maintain my membership in my professional organizations. $300 gone just like that. BUT I am thankful that I can afford this, and that maintaining my memberships will help me earn a bonus at work at beginning of next year. Plus it looks good on my resume.

I'm thankful for the Wendy's frosty that's slightly improving my mood.

Our house sale fell through 4 days before closing. We already movers and stuff lined up. Now we have to get it ready to show again. I'm not mad at the buyers because it was their buyer that decided he didn't want to break his lease that is causing all this.

I think I'm done being upset about it today. Maybe.

[estrellita]

Sorry the sale fell through tacocat hope you get another offer soon!

[MrsMB]

tacocat I'm so sorry...like I was literally RELIEVED to have a pen in my hand at the closing of the sale of our home. Even in the minutes leading up to the closing, I was scared of something happening to throw it off.

It sucks so bad. We didn't even start packing until last weekend to be cautious. So of course this week we were finalizing details when H heard from our realtor. H is being all positive about everything working out in the end and I still want to be mad.

[katiek]

I'm sorry tacocat, that's so frustrating

amaranth, some days I am close to a breakdown! It's very isolating. But we go for lots of walks, so at least we get out of the house. When neighbours are outside and say hi, I'm like "OMG please talk to me!" lol. No fun fabrics, we skipped the fabric store because Milo was super grumpy

[HoneySpider]

Oh that sucks tacocat I'm sorry!

[awick14]

I'm sorry tacocat.

It's windy and so cold here. The hills around us are covered in snow, it won't be long now for us.

I chopped all my hair off today. (Ok not all of it but a lot of it.)

katiek sometimes I feel like that even in stores. I'm that annoying person that chats in elevators and I talk to ALL the adults at the park.

[Deleted]

DH kept me up again last night so I am dragging today. Tonight I plan on cooking dinner, cleaning up the dishes then right to bed. He better not keep me up tonight.

[tacocat]

Thanks everyone! I hope the next round goes smoother.

Thanx ladies, I'm hoping the hair gives me some new confidence. I've been feeling pretty crappy lately.

[MrsMB]

[katespade]

tacocat - I am so sorry!! How disappointing. We waiting to start packing, too. I was convinced that something was going to go wrong at the last second if we started packing too soon.
