Sunday Night Randoms

[nsl]

I just made the week's grocery list, so naturally I'm craving takeout gyros. I did the same thing last night with sushi and vegetable tempura, so... Gyros it is!

[brandienee]

I am having a "fat" day. I haven't gained any weight, I just feel like I look flabbier. Looks like I am going to be a regular at the gym this summer, starting... now.

Ugh.

[baconlettucetomato]

I'm SO tired. I agreed to DD for some friends last night thinking if I didn't drink I wouldn't feel like poo today. Wrong. We got in around 2, I had to work at 0630. Now we're chilling with the neighbors.

[ggirl]

I'm sitting here watching TV. I need to work out and cook dinner. Yet I continue to sit. I lost the desire to cook as much since H is on nights now.

[kpol]

I'm making cheeseburgers for dinner since M didn't want to go to Five Guys. Wtf!? I'm also starting to plan a baking list since I have a pantry full of open baking essentials and we're PCSing soon.

Can we do confessions? I'm homesick. And mothers day sucked this year. I miss my mom, didn't get to see my mil, and this should have been my first year as a mom. Stupid body.

I'm just relaxing. I dropped mom and dad off at the airport this am, went to the grocery store then to Pilates... Ever since then I've been online shipping. Two pairs of shoes one dress and very tempted to pull the trigger on another dress... I'm sleepy and should step away from the computer and relax....

[pennylane]

I spent the the morning on skype/the phone and doing many loads of laundry. I watched way too many episodes of Sister Wives as well. Then I went to the mall looking for a dress or two for Homecoming and a few summer weddings we are attending, but had no luck. Now I'm back to the Sister Wives.

[Dory1988]

I want to grow my hair back (it's currently a pixie with long bangs). I'm just really afraid of what it will look like in the in between time. Of course, my plan to grow my hair back will be ended if I get selected since I can't go to OCS with a shit-bag looking haircut.

[k everdeen]

Ha we always make a grocery list, shop and then get take out chinese. It's like a ritual now.

I wish the people who made completely new screen names would put their old names in their signature blocks. I can't tell who's who.

H and I are watching Joe Dirt and he had no idea I have most of this movie memorized.

I may post some PIPs of my (currently crowded) living room for curtain advice later. I keep hoping that lots of posts will serve a dual purpose, for me to get some feedback on the house while I'm nesting, and for this board to pick up a little, but I feel AWish.

I'm from MN but I don't want to put my old name in my siggy because I'm not wanting to use my real name here and it was my real first name on MN. I guess I like to be difficult

[margotmacomber]

I'm lightweight tipsy and about to watch GoT and then Girls. Yay for that, but boo for the 6 am drive in the morning. I get to sleep though, DH is taking first shift. I may only get like 4 hours of (drunken) sleep.

[margotmacomber]

Also, massive hugs to BLT.

[baconlettucetomato]

Thanks guys. I'm sorry I've been so whiny lately. I think it's just the combo of stuff that it's been wearing on me. I'm Getting arranged with milonesource though.

[meltoine]

I'm semi-pissed at H. We went to mass this morning and ended up leaving after 10 minutes because DS was a terror. Then H took us home and was all, "I have to go to the flight room and do my flight plan for tomorrow. Bye!" And was gone for 6 freakin hours. He sort of made up for it by taking me out to dinner, but I'm still a little pissed that he couldn't make time to flight plan last week or even yesterday.

I highly doubt anyone here thinks you are being whiny. It is justified. I am glad that MilOneSource can help a little.

<3 BLT.

I ate my body weight in On the Border and topped it off with Cold Stone. Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarf. All I really wanted was their guac live. So Brandie, I'd say I'm having a fat day too.

I leave CO in t minus one week. I'm fuh-reaking out. So much to do. My mom's already annoying the piss out of me and scheduling where I need to be and when (when we're back in MO for 2 weeks) b/c so and so hasn't seen the twins in X months. Not.my.problem. I'm parking it in one location and they can come visit if they like. People seem to forget how hard it is to travel (or do much of anything really) with 13 month old twins.

[MrsAggie]

H just took some clothes to Plato's Closet (a resale shop that sells clothes for college-aged people). They took 16 items and we made $53. I've lived in this town in 6 years. Why haven't I done this sooner??

[prettyinpink]

Hugs BLT.

We went to a late lunch with the ILs which was fun. And then E took me to Rite Aid and got me my favorite Chocolate Malted Crunch Ice cream! My tummy is happy!!!

I got to talk to my Nanny for 17 minutes without having to repeat myself a million times or raise my voice which was awesome! She is 95 and starting to become hard of hearing and having memory lapses but its so great when we can actually talk for a bit and enjoy the conversation!

My child is only 7 and she is already going to give me a heart attack. She has been told numerous times not to cross any of the streets in our neighborhood because people drive through here like idiots, and well, she's only 7. I'm a ridiculously protective mom but A has been telling me I need to let go a bit and let her do things, so I've been letting her play outside without us out there and I've been letting her go to her friend's house that lives behind us (no street crossing involved to get there), but tell her if she goes there she has to stay outside. Last week I told her not to go over there at all and when I went out to get her, I found her over there so she was not allowed over there the rest of the week.

Tonight when we got home from the cabin, I let her play outside but told her NOT to go to her friend's house. So I go out to get her and can't find her. I walk all the way around our block and she's no where to be found. So naturally I start to panic, but go ring the doorbell at her friend's house to see if she went over there anyway and is inside playing....nope, not there. So I walk all the way around the block again and still can't find her. So I ask one of the neighbor kids if he's seen her and he says she's at some other kid's house that I don't know. So I walk back up the block to where I think this kid lives and the dad happens to come out as I walk by so I ask if he's seen her and he says no. So I turn around to head back home and there she is, in the middle of the effing street. So I tell her to go back home. When I get in the house, I ask her where she was and where this kid's house is. Turns out this kid's house is across the street and up the block. So I tell her, AGAIN, that she is not allowed to cross the street, nor is she to go places without telling me and send her up to her room.

I then have a panic/pregnancy hormone induced break down and am currently really angry that I can't drink because I sure could've used one.

The child is only 7! I'm doomed aren't I?

Hugs Momma! It sounds like she is pushing boundaries because she has a brother/sister coming and is trying to see what she can get away with.

And You're not doomed but you might need to have bigger consequences for when she is doing this stuff that you told her not to. Crossing the street by herself and going somewhere you don't know is a big deal and she needs to know that.

Also, for Mother's Day, I got a card from B and a card from "The spawn of some man". A likes to tell everyone that he is just waiting to find out what color the baby is because he's fairly certain it's not his. He even told the doc that when I was getting my ultrasound. He kind of has a weird sense of humor!
