Yesterday when I was out running errands I went to McDonald's and got one of their mocha frappe drinks. The thing is pure sugar but delicious. I am now wanting another one. Good thing I'm too lazy to go out just for that!
These last few days have flown by. I am so not use to staying up until 1-2am and then being up by 7-8am. This is ridicules. I hope I sleep on the 4hr drive today/

@emtmissy - I hope your day gets better!
HoneySpider - I don't know if you like caramel or not, but in some kind of blind bad decision making trance I had the caramel frappe a few weeks ago. So good!
I'm going to be a broken record on the home selling stuff here for a while. People that have done it recently (or bought)--do I need to remove all family photos?

wanderingenough We took down all of the photos/diplomas/personal stuff when we sold. I don't know if it actually makes a difference, but it has to get packed up anyway so might as well do it now.
wanderingenough Yes, I would. Our RA told us that it helps the buyers to see themselves in your home. When they see family photos, it makes them feel they are in someone else's home. Also, you don't want strangers knowing what you look like.
MrsMB Nice!!! Also, I have all sorts of spider veins. It got much worse after I had G. Oh well. Not pretty but really not a big deal and so worth it in the long run.
HoneySpider Go out and get one while you can! I had so many times I wanted to get out for simple little things like getting a special drink but couldn't with a newborn. Do it!
So apparently I'm still having anxiety about the new baby. Last night I had a dream that we had 9 kids!!! 1 was biologically ours, 1 set of twins we adopted, and the rest were foster kids. There were triplet newborns. Wahhhh!!!! So yeah... Lol!
wanderingenough,we did not remove photos before listing or showings. I may be abnormal, but I actually like when the homes we looked weren't overly staged. I like to see what counter tops look like with a coffee pot, knives block, etc out. because that's what real life is. I never minded others' photos.
@emtmissy *hugs* I'm sorry I had a day like that a few days ago. So much awful stuff happened in a row. I held it together and just sort of got through, stone faced. I treated myself to milkshakes for three days in a row afterwards.
HoneySpider I like those McDonalds frappes better than the Starbucks frappucinos. They're basically a milkshake. I tried making them at home but mine were so gross.
MrsMB my chiropractor is a middle aged, balding lady. I feel bad for her to be losing her hair
wanderingenough I haven't been around much, but how did I miss that you're moving? Where? Why?
bk1 I have dreams like that. I should I say, nightmares. Every time were around my husband's big family we're so grateful for our small little one. Lol. And our version of small is 4 kids, huge to most people.
I am home after having spent the last 2 nights in a college dorm room with DHs friends from high school. (We rented a 4 bedroom dorm as it was only $155/night for the whole place and there were 10 of us.)
Our trip was fun we saw a lot of people we haven't seen in years. It was really nice. The boys that came, the group dh hung in high school, there were 6 or them, all partied pretty hard last night after the celebration of life we went too last night.
Also I am so not used to staying up until 1-2am multiple nights in a row and still get up at 7am. :/
I slept the entire trip home (4hrs) and took another 2 hr nap at home, lol.
