Saturday randoms

[glitzyglow]

I had a lot of fun last night at the bachelorette party and more fun is planned today. That said, I woke up at 7am bc when I drink I sleep a maximum of 5 hours, but normally it's more like 3-4. Whhhhyyy!

Weighed in this morning and I'm 2lbs away from hitting 20lbs lost since November 1. Slow but steady!

Congrats on the weightloss glitzyglow! Slow and steady is the way to keep it off!

I should clean my house today, but I want to spend the day with my nieces.

I "graduate" from OT and PT next week! I'm happy for progress, but happier I won't have to get up at 5:00 AM twice a week! YAY for more sleep!

Today I'm supposed to go stand up paddle boarding with a few of my friends. It never rains here and of course today it might rain. So I'm doing the anti-rain dance. Save your rain for tomorrow!!!!

Other than that, I need to run and clean today.

I have one kid with a fever and he is supposed to go to monster jam tonight. He is feeling better, but you can see he is tired. :-( No birthday party for him tomorrow.

When I was at the spa the skin tech asked if I was here with my husband. I said no I was here with my dad and stepmom. Then she says oh "is your husband here" I say "no" she says "oh why not?" I say "because he doesn't exist" lol. Then she says "oh do you have kids?" I was like "nope" so she finished with "oh you're all alone then" in this pitying tone. I just laughed and was like "live alone and love it, but never lonely"

It just made me sad for her that she doesn't think you can have a full life as a single person.

I am super stupid in managing my Amazon subscribe & save. I kept pushing things off, and forgot to do that this month. So I got a huge shipment of a bunch of shit I don't need. jigsy do you want some shaving cream or lysol wipes? LOL.

Donate the wipes to an animal shelter and donate the shaving cream to a homeless shelter.  You get to do something good and someone else benefits from your procrastination

Congrats on the weight loss glitzy!

Lazy Saturday for me. It's gloomy and gray here. I'm on my period and want to eat carbs.

We had an awesome view of the airshow today from the pool at TL's apartment. The Blue Angels haven't changed their show in my memory, and it is so fun! 
Here are a few pictures from this afternoon, PDQ.

I'm still feeling like crap and wondering if I actually have something bacterial going on--horrible throat pain, cough and sinus congestion.  I laid around in pjs until 4pm, then once I got ready we took a ride to the mall so I could pick up some clothes for work.  We discovered a good Mexican restaurant and had dinner there.  Now I feel like I could go to sleep.  
The timing is so bad on me being sick.  I obviously can't call out from a job that I've worked at for a week.  I don't have a doc here and I'm not even sure if I still have insurance through my old job.  The new ins doesn't pick up until June 1st.  Ugh.

Oh no! I'm sorry that you're not feeling better. Can you call the number on your insurance card from old job to see if you're still covered? I'm guessing that you should be since they normally should have Cobra forms on your way to fill out to extend your coverage for a cost. If use Cobra since you're otherwise not covered for another full month.

Feel better!

Remember cheap friend?

Another story for you all, lol.

He always crashes at my house for a night to catch an early flight. Saves him transportation money and it doesn't put me out, always happy to help since he lives an hour out. This time I asked him to help me move some furniture to make room for the crib while he was planning to stay overnight. This was before baby even fractured multiple ribs so I urgently needed help. I forgot and lost track of days because I was sick for two weeks then was suffering from the ribs. I see in FB, that he is on his vacation. No explanation, nothing - weird. I had a feeling that he was pissed for getting invited to my coed baby shower- because he'd have to buy a gift. He accepted the invite that morning for start time at noon. I was surprised.

My friend just dropped gifts today. There was no way i can carry anything with my ribs and my friend chose to have it be social with no gift opening to avoid it being about the gifts vs. celebrating the baby and me...and to bore the guys, lol.

I'll preface that I'm just happy to have people be happy for me. I didn't expect a gift and just wanted to celebrate this new life and miracle in my life. I was so touched to have so many amazing people there. But I did crack up when i opened the gift tonight. It's a dollar store picture frame with .75" holes for baby pics. I have no idea what to do with it, lol. How am I going to make a pic that small? Lol. I was cracking up. I'm guessing he paid a dollar or two for it. I appreciate the thoughtfulness, truly but he cracks me up. This is the guy who plans to retire in 2 years (he's in his 40's) and drinks my beers when we used to go out instead of ordering his own. It's all so comical.

But seriously, how do I get pics that small? Do I just donate it or can I figure out how to use this?

Thought you could all use the laugh. You're welcome. ;p

The elder one and I went to a new place while xh took the boys to a monster truck show.

I had a great ceviche and she had some chicken yakatori. She tried new stuff and I am so proud of her.

My sons are home and asleep now.

Way to go glitzyglow!

@blueyes623, either minute clinic or a wal.mart clinic should be able to see and treat you for under 100 dollars which is usually cheaper than cobra. If it's more, cobra can retroactively be paid (right?). Also get a Godiva rewards card so you can get a free piece of chocolate at the Godiva store at Crabtree (if that's the one you're going to).

pandora, my elementary school boyfriend (haha)/family friends had similar frames but 11 holes in a circle and one big one in the middle (11 grades plus 12th grade goes in the middle). They all had bitty baby pictures in them and were replace by grades. their mom was neurotic and did 1 month pics up to a year and then slowly replaced with shool pictures in chronological order (and clockwise so 1 month/1st grade was at 12 o'clock). I would... donate. Or print 4X6 and cut the head to fit?

Thanks, I'm going to donate. Maybe someone else can use it. I won't have the patience to cut up pics and honestly I don't want it on my wall since...well, see below.


I registered (and received) a frame that has the monthly pics in the 1st year that was $10.99 (w/free shipping). His is attempting the same thing so I guess $10.99 was too costly for him, LOL. It really could not have costed more than a dollar - it cracks me up. The guy asks me for advice all the time about where to invest and he finally shared that he has almost reached his goal of a million in liquid assets, excluding retirement. Yup you read that right. Just cracks me up but I also feel sorry for him because he's missing out on so much and frankly, it's a huge turn off so...well, he's LT single with no prospects even though he runs several meet ups. No shortage of single women!

I have a friend who was let go from her LT job recently - she's struggling. She made me a sweet card out of regular paper and baked a small bread for me to enjoy. That was from the heart and it brought me to tears. It's the thought that counts for me and I put her bread in the freezer so I will have it when I'm frenzied with a newborn. I know I will love it and it will put a huge smile on me again then.
