We bought a new microwave a couple of months ago and the ONLY feature I wanted is to be able to push a number button and have the thing start immediately for that many minutes. . The ONLY thing! Somehow we walked out with exactly the opposite. I get pissed every time I have to press 3-0-0-Start to turn the damn thing on for three minutes. Even the Add :30 doesn't just start it! #Lazy

I love randoms threads. That's how you really get to know people.

I just got a Mani/pedi and an eyebrow wax before treating myself to solo dinner (my H works evenings and my kiddo is at the grandparents for the week). Not a bad night. Too bad I have one meeeelion pages of epic boringness to read for my professional miltary education stuff.

We have a robot vacuum cleaner thingy because we have so much pet hair. Well…while DH went to the gym and I had a dental cleaning appt., my house-trained dog decided to take a shit in the house. Can you imagine what happened next?? The mess we came home to is indescribable! Today, thinking about it, it was a little funny… 

Oh god. Oh god oh god oh god. Nooooo.


But, um, otherwise, would you recommend a roomba?

I paid off my last student loan today!! Our only debt is our mortgage now

I'm celebrating by laying on the couch while my kid runs wild, and gagging at every dinner suggestion. Yayyy...

Whoa buddy, that's incredible!! Congratulations!!! That will never be me...

Yeah, I'm married to a cross of Dave Ramsey and Clark Howard. Money sense, y'all, he gots it.

He graduated from a private liberal arts school and got a check for $5,000 BACK from the school. WHO DOES THAT

That's wonderful!

We do the Dave Ramsey system too, we paid for our entire wedding in cash, and the only debt we have right now is 1 car loan.  It really is pretty awesome.  It feels so good.

That's awesome! So many people go crazy with weddings, I'm always like, "No!! Not worth it!" It does feel good for your money to be, well, yours.

We don't actually follow Dave Ramsey, as in cash envelopes, etc. When we first read up on him, H was like... "That's it?" Lol. So we agree work him but don't necessarily follow his rules.

My husband loves Dave Ramsey, but we don't follow his system.  However, in the last 5 years, we have paid off our timeshare, paid off 2 vehicles, and paid off $30,000 of my student loans.  If it weren't for my husband, that would never have happened.  However, we have had many arguments about letting loose once in a while.  I suggested maybe, for a month or two, we can't pay double payments on everything and do something fun or buy something that we really want (paint for a room, landscaping the front of the house, etc).  He says that the interest that would gather would not be worth it and we can do all of that later.

Omg! !!!! I literally can't stop laughing! I mean it sucks but that shit is hilarious. I can't imagine what I would have done.

My 19-year-old dog, Gypsy, is going blind. I love that furry beast more than anything. But lately, she's become a demanding beyotch. Last night at 3 am she barked at me to take her outside to pee. Here's the annoying part: we have a doggie door!!! I am soooo tired!!! (:|

My H came home from work and I told him I was hungry. He said he was hungry too. I was like, no really, I'm HUNGRY. Need. Dinner. Now. He said, yeah me too, but first I'm gonna play with the dog. I made myself a yummy tomato and cheese sandwich and let him fend for himself. There ain't no waiting for food these days.

Guise I am dying reading this tonight. Thank Jesus! I have felt shitty all day and needed the laughs the roomba was the best... But revenge farts... I'll be right there with ya I'm making broccoli and we all know what that means! Boooooyaaaaa

According to TB my baby will be about the size of a green pea in a couple days. At work today I was at the sink and I noticed a lone pea sitting there on the counter. I picked it up and studied it, then started shedding tears as I imagined the little baby inside of me being that size.

Needless to say my co-workers were asking some questions.

@FrecklesInside‌ I hope this is the last interview/demo you have to do so you can enjoy your summer before you start your new job. I know it sucks finding a new teaching position. I spent the whole summer I got pregnant with DS job hunting. It sucked!

yea, this is our problem...we can't live life like this. We don't go crazy and buy a shit ton of stuff we can't afford, but we go out to eat a lot on the weekend and buy E nice clothes...we are young and want to enjoy our lives. Debt sucks. We should be responsible and create a budget, but...I don't want to live a wallet sealed lifestyle for 15 years so that we can live freely later. I see how it make sense, but I'm just not willing.

My 15 month old kept pinching and scratching me today, so I asked my husband to help me cut his nails. As soon as I cut the first nail ds started screaming. My husband looked at me and said, "I don't think he likes his nails being cut. Maybe we should leave him alone." Are you kidding me?! So I spent 5 minutes fighting a struggling toddler by myself so I could cut his long nails because my husband didn't want to be the one to upset him. Grr...

I literally spat my broccoli out like a child tonight. The thought of it was good but once it went in if it did not come out right then and there it would take my whole meal with it. For this I am sad. I am now thinking of ice cream sandwich number 2 to drown my sorrows.

I'm trying to sell my brand new one because our dogs hair is too long for it... Picks up dust like a charm though

Tell me more. I just have one Boston Terrier, but we are getting all wood floors downstairs for our new house and my H acts like it's the end of the world if he comes into contact with a single dog hair.

I can't button my pants without being in pain. And it's not because I'm pregnant.

@wendyld‌ it's actually the hard floors that I have a beef with in the case of the roomba. We have a long haired black German shepherd who sheds hair like it's her job and I was exhausted by the cleanup. My very sweet dh bought me the roomba and it picked up everything except her long hairs. I really mean everything - Cheerios, dog food, whatever.
The hair it did manage to pick up were immediately wrapped around the brushes and I was constantly cleaning them out. Making more work than I had originally. I felt so horrible and guilty when I had to tell dh it wasn't working out for me... Sorry for the novel, I hope that helps.

That's exactly what I needed to hear to convince me not to buy one. The dog's hair is short, but *I* shed like crazy too. I'm forever cleaning up yetis of hair from any tile floors. It's gross.

Sometimes when I am lying in bed, I can feel my heart beat in weird places...like my ass. It's happening right now. Oh hai, did I mention I am a little weird.
Also, I had lobster for dinner tonight and it was soooo good but now my intestines are pissed that I also are all the drawn butter ever. Stupid lactose.

My friend is visiting from back home and I fucking love visitors lol. It gives me an excuse to eat out for most of my meals bc charleston has kick ass food. Today, we went to a fav hot dog place of mine that was on DDD on food network. Mac n cheese on hot dogs.. BBQ and cole slaw on hot dogs.. Anything you can think of on hot dogs. I've never eaten a hot dog so fast in my life!

That sounds beyond amazing. Now I'm considering getting out of bed just to make a hot dog...

Does the fact that I've convinced myself I want a Bugaboo make me a snob... Or am I lame for name dropping strollers in the first place? 1st world pregnant girl problems.

gdamore11

On another note, I've been sitting on the toilet peeing off and on for about ten minutes now. Am I saving time by just staying put knowing that more will arrive shortly, or do I just need to get off the pot and cut my losses?

Then H has the balls to bring home Oreos when I'm on all clear liquids for the next 24! (Gallbladder attack) A pg woman on only liquid fucking kill me! Oh and he asked for a mouth hug.. Yeah NO.

H and DS did "talk" to the baby today though.. Super cute...

My PgAL brain is on overdrive today. First appt tomorrow. I keep thinking "are my boobs as sore?" "Am I as nauseated as yesterday?"

FX you have a reassuring appointment today! ((Hugs))

wendyld

@chrain‌ I hope you have a wonderful appt today and get completely reassured.

FrecklesInside

Good luck at your appt today @chrain! Can't wait to hear your awesome update

Someone decided it was a "good" idea to heat up leftover salmon in the lunchroom at work. I might add here that it is not even 10:00 in the morning!! WTF?!?! I thought it was some kind of unwritten office etiquette not to heat up fish. I seriously almost vomited!  Who does that. Thanks for ruining my day....asshole!!
