So i'm mildly upset b/c my jelly filled doughnut only had jelly in half.

Helenahhandbasket

Mildly?  I would be furious.

I have too many clothes and I almost missed my train this AM because I couldn't decide what to wear.

Mine is going to be long but I have to vent.

 

We went to a birthday party on Sunday and last night H showed me a txt his cousin sent him on Wednesday.

She was asking if we had brought a birthday card for her son and what our gifts were.

I find it selfish to ask people what they had brought your kid for his birthday. Why does it even matter?

Ugh I am more upset about this than I should be. I wanted to respond and tell her how I really felt about her asking us that but H said no and to let it go.

I told H what we brought for him and that there was a card in the bag that had our name on it. Its not my fault that she couldn't match the gifts with the cards so she can judge what people bought for her kid.

Good grief. There are days where I seriously cant stand this woman.

I have to eat mac & cheese twice today b/c it's Friday during lent and I am not supposed to eat meat.  It will be Kraft for lunch and homemade for dinner.  That's a whole lot of mac & cheese.

We are having baked fish. And i'm having Mac and cheese and a salad for lunch!! LOL

That is really rude they should live by the motto ... "You get what you get and you don't throw a fit!"

Yuck, but could she have been asking so she could send a TY card and mention the correct gift? That's the only reason I can imagine ever asking anyone this.

She could wait until AFTER the party like normal people and write down the gifts if she is that worried about it.

No, she never sends thank you cards and honestly I don't expect them.

Her thank you was via the text message and I felt it was unnecessary, not to mention rude to ask what we had brought.

Lent question - why don't you eat meat on Fridays? I clearly learned a lot those two years my mom sent my to Catholic school ... 

My FWP - our porch slider is frozen shut and I couldn't let our dog out quickly for his morning pee so I had to go out through the front door of the building to go for a walk in 5 degree weather with DS because DH leaves for work at 6. I'm so over living in a condo. 

It represents a form of penance to honor God and his sacrifices. Honestly we are not suppose to eat meat on Friday AT ALL but many (myself included) only follow this rule during lent.

Maybe this should be my fffc, but I totally would have left DS in the condo while I went out to walk the dog (in a safe place of course). In the past when we've lived in apartments, I would keep him up in his crib or pnp while I got groceries out of the car in the parking lot. Seems like the same.

My FWP: In a house full of food, there is nothing I want to eat right now. I'm debating heading to the grocery store for some cookies so I don't starve :P

O gawd-- I didn't read that right-- I though TMG already attended the party.

I stand by my initial "Yuck" then.

They did not carry the correct organic, chemical free diapers that I get for DD at Target, so I had to order them via 2 day at Amazon, meaning I have to use Pampers that upset her delicate bottom for a day until they arrive.

My FWP: The pantry, fridge, and freezer are literally crammed full of food at home (my sister and I both did costco runs), and last night I couldn't figure out what to make for dinner so we ordered pizza.

DH and I have a date night at our favorite restaurant. I really can't decide which drink I want to order: moscow mule or pisco sour.  Choices are hard.

I have lots of food too. Have a meal plan so I know what I supposed to make and I still don't have the motivation to make it!
