We were at the park this morning, and it was a little chilly. Nadia had a really runny nose. I was out of tissues and wipes in the diaper bag, so I used a clean pair of my three year olds extra underwear to wipe her nose with.
You're better than me. I usually use the hem of Jackie's own shirt.
My FFFC is that I have serious baby fever and I haven't told my husband. I'm not ready just yet, but I feel it coming. I've been submitting job applications left and right trying to find something more like my last job that made being pregnant so easy. Going all over Navy ships, not so prego friendly...

I swear customers can be the best or worst part of my job. I work at a small, family owned pet supply store. I had a guy come in and he wanted to buy a large bag of our brand dog food. He pulls out $39 in cash from his pocket. The total is about $45. I offer to get him the medium sized bag (which is only $23) and he insists on getting the large bag.
He then has the nerve to ask me if he can just "come back to pay the difference another time". I politely apologize and say I cannot do that. He gets angry and goes on about how he "spends so much money here at the store blah blah blah". After talking in circles, he finally says "fine, you're going to lose a customer over $6? That's bad business!"
He then asked for my name so he could complain to our corporate office and left. First of all, this isn't the swap meet, we don't negotiate pricing. Secondly, what business uses the honor system? I work there and would never expect them to do that even for me! And lastly, I don't care how much money you claim to spend here, my answer is still no. Sorry not sorry. Asshole.
