Hah, sorry guys!
We made dinner and then ate.
So, this person is a board member. I was out at an event earlier and left something there (on purpose). I told this person "Please leave my thing at our building, I will pick it up later this afternoon while I'm out running errands."
And then I came home, did a bunch of crap, then laid down for a nap. She called while I was napping and then showed up while I was still napping. She was "in the area" and decided to drop it off. It was not crucial that I get this thing back today. Which is why I told her I would pick it up later.

If someone called you (twice) and you didn't see that they called because your phone was put away, what would you think if that person showed up at your house?
Keep in mind that you didn't see they called until they said "hey, did you get my voicemail?"
Also, you are not related to this person, nor do you consider this person family/a close friend.
We just got a target red card today. Combined with my Rx rewards card and this weekend's tax free sale we saved 15%. I'll save 10% on the regular with just the red card and Rx card. I love that place!
Umm, tell me more about the tax free thing and Rx card.

I filled the bag in under three minutes.
The poor girl who was assisting me had to check with her supervisor to
1. Make sure my blood was dark enough
2. Make sure I didn't have an arterial puncture
So, two things you never want to hear while giving blood..
1. "I think she might have an arterial puncture"
2. "Ma'am, are you SURE you're ok? You're not feeling faint? You're sure? Can you give me your full name, date of birth, address, and height (for the seventh time) one more time?
Oh! And, when he says he will clean up after a meal, and 4 hours later everything is exactly the same as when I finished cooking. This seriously fills me with rage to the point that when I was on bed rest, he rearranged the furniture so I couldn't see into the kitchen from the living room. Apparently, that was easier than just cleaning up the damn kitchen in a timely manner,

I can participate in dog poop threads!!
We bought a large bucket with lid from the hardware store and keep it in our side yard. We line it with a garbage bag, scoop daily, and then dump the bag in the main trash once a week.
It's because stores have to make a lot of them.. So they use the cheapest lighting, the cheapest (and least flattering) carpet and wall paint and the cheapest mirrors. Cheaper mirrors tend to have thinner and more durable glass which actually gives a less flattering reflection. The thicker the glass, the more flattering (and accurate) the reflection.

I'm going to a pizza throwdown, lol.
A very good friend of mine has an amazing backyard setup that was completely designed for parties, including an outdoor pizza oven. I can't freaking wait. I'm just bummed that the weather is so shitty. No pool time for me.
I've been cleaning and straightening and going through piles all day and tonight is my last night of freedom before H comes home.
no bc that company fucking sucks. but I would keep looking on CL. you will find something for pennies on the dollar and maybe get it delivered for free!
@stellasmom I love your kids boots! What kind are they? I'd love to have a pair for the twins. As cheesy as it is, I love dressing them in pink and blue when they are together.
I'm not stellas (clearly, lol) but they look like Ariats.
