    @mileswithmyles one of the moms that I'm super close with from my last BMB is in bakersfield which is about an hour south of me.

    @dinonugget sounds like you're not that far from me as well. I'm in central California, about 3-4 hrs from Anaheim. 
    I'm central coast so think Pismo Beach but a bit farther south. I grew up in Fresno though. In my Previous BMB there have been very few from the west coast so I was always a few hours behind.
    I went to Fresno state! I live in visalia.

    Yes I was always way behind by the time I got up on my last BMB. We had a pretty fast paced board and a lot of east coasters. 

    All the cool kids are over here @rowboat4 :p. J/k

  • @rowboat4 small world! All my club soccer games were in Visalia. I moved over here for Cal Poly and couldn't bring myself to move back to the valley although we go quite often to visit my parents. You surviving the heat this summer?

    Ugh barely. Thank goodness for air conditioning, solar panels, and parents with pools!

    I would love to move to the coastal area but I don't think my DH would ever want to give up his job here.

  • Any GOT fans? I can't wait for the finale tonight!!!

    Yes!!!!
  • @Jlr025


    Me! Me!  Me!  Super pumped for tonight's finale...not quite sure what to expect, but obviously something big has got to go down at this meeting for everyone!
  • I just need to vent for a second/dear diary... 

    I had three items made as a donation to a complex communication camp. I asked the seller to make them in April (camp started 8/22, ends tomorrow) so I gave her plenty of time. She sent pictures on 7/25 and started to ship them but then cancelled the shipment so she could make two more (for a separate paid order) and mail them all out together and save herself money on shipping. They finally shipped 8/18- but are going from CA to Canada (near the east coast)- 4 days, including an order crossing, on the slowest shipping method possible. They aren't going to make it in time... 

    Tomorrow is the lat day of camp and the items still aren't there. Tracking just says "in transit." I've talked to the camp hostess and I've just reached out to the seller. I'm not sure anything can be done, but I'm definitely disappointed that she waited so long, especially since I gave her 4 months notice, and by the time they arrive there will be no campers there to receive them. I'm just so bummed because I was so excited to be able to donate them. 

    End rant. Thanks for listening.

    Wth? Not ok on the sellers part. She should have shipped them the first time instead of canceling.

  • @KD5624 ugh I'm sorry! I hate when things don't work out because other people just don't think or plan right. She should have had it there early. I'm not one to leave bad reviews but I would slap that one down for sure. 


    And me! Love me some GOT. I really hope it's better than last week. 
  • Yep agree with @rachelg777 I would for sure leave a review saying what happened.

    Thanks ladies. I'm going to talk to her and see if anything can be done. I hesitate to leave a bad review because it's a small business and is run by a mom in our special needs community. I'm torn on what to do because I have to work with her again later this year for an event I'm helping to coordinate. She participated last year and it went well and she's always had everything out on time, from what I've read. . :/ I'll wait for her to reply and get her thoughts in the situation and go from there. 
  • I think I slept funny, my lower back is killing me. And of course DD wants me to hold her.

  • @KD5624 that does make it tricky! You're right, I guess talking with her is the best option right now. I hope it goes well!
  • @KD5624 I'm sorry that's really frustrating. 
  • Thanks ladies. live and learn, I guess... next time I'll do something different for a donation item. :/
  • Just need to vent...I've been sick for 10 days now and it's finally turned into wheezing. I woke up this afternoon (I work nights) and it was really bad so OB said I could use my inhaler. Inhaler didn't work so I'm now in the ER. I've already had a breathing treatment and will need another and probably steroid meds which I really don't want to take. Plus I had to call into work tonight and use sick time which I barely have any of from my last maternity leave and was trying to save for this next one. I just really don't want to deal with of this right now.
  • So sorry @dinonugget I hope the doctors can find something to help besides steriods. And I hope you feel much better soon <3

  • @rowboat4 Add all the pillows to your bed. You're pregnant, it's justified.

    @dinonugget Hope you feel better soon. Hopefully they can find some more preganacy/general body friendlier treatments for you

    I'm so sorry! I hope you get the meds you need and can get home to rest and feel better soon!
  • @dinonugget Hugs!!!   Being sick when pregnant is the worst especially the first trimester
  • Thanks everyone! They got the wheezing under control with two breathing treatments so I was able to avoid any steroids and go home. I still have to take my inhaler and cough syrup because my cough is completely out of control. I'm just bummed to use sick time.
  • So sorry @dinonugget!  I have terrible asthma and always have to go on steroids. It just plain sucks. I just stopped taking my singular and Flonase last week and have already had to use my rescue inhaler twice. Dr said baby needs me to be able to breathe so take it when I need to. Hopefully allergy season begins to end soon! Feel better. Creepy internet hugs. 
  • @justsuzie thats pretty much what they told me too. I only get asthma when I'm sick and last pregnancy around 13 weeks I ended up in the ER twice for bronchitis that wouldn't go away. I just let myself get too far behind this time because I was reluctant to take medicine. I definitely learned my lesson.
