We had a meeting with our LO and our REA yesterday and it sucked. They didn't tell us anything we didn't know already and I'm not sure why we bothered driving the 1/2 hour to meet when there was nothing to sign and no new information.
Also, there's a possibility we could fail our VA appraisal on the house we're selling. And that would SUCK. I'm hoping for good news, but it doesn't seem that way.

I just got a speeding ticket while running an errand for work this morning. I rarely ever speed but was coming down a hill and wasn't paying attention to the momentum I had gained. There goes $125 I would have much rather used on the blinds I want for our loft and a few other things...
I slept wrong on my neck last night and I just want to go home. No such luck. Also we're going to buy dressers this weekend from IKEA and I'm 98% positive both them are not going fit in our car (IKEA is two hours away so I don't want to make two trips). I just want dressers that have drawers that stay on and don't fall off when slightly touched.

Also, I bought strawberries just before work to eat with my lunch. No sugar at work, so I went to get some from the deli. Only packets of the sugar substitute. So I went to the aisle. All they had there was sugar substitute and some stuff called Stevia in the packets/small packages (I don't need 5 pounds of sugar at work lol) and so I just bought the Stevia because it said it was a natural substitute. It.tastes.like.butt. So I have 39 packets of Stevia and need to remember sugar tomorrow from home to finish off my stupid strawberries.

I fell for the Stevia crap too. Ugh. It's super sweet and really strong and bitter. So I'm with you ... I have a box with 1 packet out of it. I keep meaning to send it to work with H for him to put in their break room for public use, but forgetting.
(ALSO - I nearly typed "pubic" up there ... and now I'm wondering what pubic use of Stevia would do. Hehehehe)

I have been helping dh everyday before work at our community pool and im exhausted. We painted last weekend on my parents house and this weekend is super busy too I want a day to myself I to dh he owes me bought massage
DSs birthday is this weekend. One of my best friends from LI was supposed to come up with her kids and spend the weekend. My other best friend from LI moved up here and now lives nearby so it was going to be a weekend for all of us and the kids. Local friend was scheduled for surgery on Friday and now can't come and since she's not coming, friend from LI cancelled because she only wants to come if she can see all of us. So she's coming up in two weeks instead. I'm mad because 1. I feel like DS and myself and my kids are not worth LI's friend's effort and 2. I feel guilty because if I was surgery friend, I would want my other two friends to reschedule around the surgery even if this was a plan that was set in motion 2 months ago.
Equally sad, because the kids of both friends are my son's close friends since he was a baby and of everyone he invited, those were the two that he specifically wanted there.

Pubic. *giggle*
I have to admit, I rarely use (white) sugar aside from my rare urge to bake. I'll buy a bag of sugar and it'll sit so long unused that it starts to clump. If I'm using any kind of sugar it's usually brown sugar, and I mostly use that for homemade BBQ sauce.

I don't use it that often either except for instances I need it, but work? Nope, certainly don't need a 5 pound bag. I should have just gone to the damn Sam's Club and bought some there, but it was an impulse buy 15 minutes before work AND I was 2 blocks from work (5 from Sam's Club the opposite direction). Good idea sending it to work, I'll tell H to take it and leave it on the coffee table there. From what I gather, they steal stuff there. Which is why I had to spend $4 on french vanilla creamer for him to hide in his desk drawer.

You aren't getting Malm dressers are you? I doubt it, because that is like one of the cheapest, but our dresser drawers fell off ALL the time. But we should have known, it was so cheap!
My whine is that we got new counters installed yesterday and they look great. Except we are both worried now that the 12 inch overhang on the peninsula is too much. Oh well, nothing we can do now.
I just got home to a letter from the IRS saying we didn't report two of H's stock sales in 2010 and now they want $324. Gee, that's almost exactly the cost of the additional recessed lighting I'm about to tell him we need. FML.
