My H & DS bought me an ice cream cake from Carvel for my birthday, but I am supposed to be off dairy & now I can't have any.
what dicks!
(Did they know you are off Dairy?)
Right?! Yes, they knew, but H claims "it's the only thing you asked for all year!" I guess he thought I was just giving the whole no-dairy thing a try, & could actually have it if I wanted to. In reality, I've been off of it for several months (my acupuncturist recommended it) & I do feel so much better without it (and feel really awful if I do have it).
So now it's just sitting in the freezer, mocking me & my dairy-free existence.
Our fucking AC is out. In July. In fucking Texas. It's $3K to fix the coil- which will put a band-aid on the issue and get it up and running, or $10K to fix the whole system, which will need to be done in a matter of time either way. If the coil gets fixed before a new AC, then eventually everything has to be torn out and redone anyway. So here we sit, in the Texas heat, deciding...... FUCK!
Holy shit- 10k?! We had an ad repair guy out last week and he quoted us $3500 to replace one of our units. The upstairs unit isn't performing great....it's better since he charged the freon or whatever, but not as good as the brand new downstairs unit. Make sure you get a second opinion....I know nothing about this crap, but that seems so high! If you ever need a place to come cool off in the heat, call me. Y'all can come over and we can drink sangria and let our kids entertain each other. Lol
Haha! Thanks :-) That sounds awesome right now.
We have two guys, in addition to the one that already came out yesterday, scheduled to come and take a look. We will be getting AT LEAST three opinions before we pay anything. The other two guys came highly recommended, the first was someone our home warranty place sent out. :::sigh:::

OMFG, 10K?? I'm so sorry:( When we moved into our house the downstairs unit broke, immediately. We replaced it for around 3K. Is this some turbo charged, last 50 years unit? I didn't know they could be so much! Ouch.
I'm really hoping we just got a ridiculously high quote after reading some of these experiences. Our house was built in 1997 and has the original AC, which is pretty standard. I know the coil has leaks and isn't up to code since the laws has changed in the five years since we've bought the house. Not sure if it matters but our house is small, less that 2,000 square feet.
Hopefully the first quote was BS. ::::crosses fingers:::::
They are ordering in lunch for everyone who is actually here today. They are ordering from a place that makes me feel ill every time I eat it and with pregnancy nose just the smell of the food from the place makes me want to gag. I am sad I will now have to pay for my own lunch.
We're spending the 4th of July at the beach, in a condo at a place we go for a long weekend every summer since we got the girls and can't leave the state without court approval. This is our 3rd stay, I think. It has by far the best view but I've been disappointed in everything else. They let pets stay so it's dirtier than the one on the first level but had great beach access, it's in an older building so no elevator, isn't as nicely decorated as the last two, blah blah blah.
But we can open our windows and see the beach over the dunes this time, and hear the waves rolling/crashing/whatevering onto the shore.
But it's freaking 63 degrees and overcast when the past two weeks has been in the 80s and sunny. Go figure. At this rate (rain the entire week of spring break in Florida, chilly and overcast 4th of July at the coast) I'm sure there will be tsunamis when we're at Cannon Beach later this summer.

I'm trying to defer a couple of my student loans because I'm out of options and I only have $18 to my name to pay $300 in student loans. They say I'm not eligible (despite saying that I'm unemployed who exhausted my savings trying to make my bills) all because I'm fucking married. Being married doesn't mean I get financial support people! Maybe if I went back and said I wasn't married, then I'd be perjuring myself to the federal government. So I requested a forbearance but they won't get to my request until the day my loans are due and I'm still responsible for paying them while they make their decision.
I don't know what to do....cause H isn't certainly coming forward with the money. I know I'm not getting any cash from him when he says "well there's always hooking" in a non-joking manner.

The packers/movers did a horrible job and I'm finding boxes with saran wrap and tin foil in my master bedroom closet. I don't know what they do for fun in the bedroom, but my sex life does not include any type of keep-food-fresh product.
Also, the landscapers have not arrived to mow my lawn. I swear our new neighbors mow their lawns daily, and we are going to be "those" neighbors with the only messy lawn.
We went to a pool party yesterday and the host went for a food run, so we gave him a $20. He came back with $20 bucks worth of burgers and buns. And that's it.
Okey dokey. I thought we were pitching in. Guess we were paying. $20 bucks for 2 burgers.

I just found out that my first choice wedding invitations only sell the pockets in minimum quantities of 125. Now we'll have to go with the second choice and our day will be ruined.
