Can I Get a Good News Tuesday?!

Cause I feel like shouting Hallelujah!

I've been so stressed for the last month over money. I've been wondering how on earth we spent so much last month and WHERE. So I went back and rebalanced my online tracker and my actual bank account ...

I deducted the September mortgage TWICE! Holycrapohmygodhallelujah.

Me = a happy girl!

What's your good news?

Re: Can I Get a Good News Tuesday?!

  • I ovulated sometime during the night (day 16/17!) and our timing was *fantastic*. 

    Our new floors are getting installed AS I TYPE.  And I'm about to take a nap.

    **happy dance**

  • I think I felt the baby yesterday for the first time. It was really awesome. DH was excited.
    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

  • What a relief SLB!

    My good news - Friday is a paid holiday! Party!!!  I'm going to send the kid to daycare for part of the day and go shopping.

  • I just picked up my new Kate Spade purse and wallet that I ordered last week during the flash sale.  It's the little things.  Was it Guava that was trying to pick a new bag last week?  I'm curious what she ended up picking.  Wink  Oh Guavaaaaaa....
  • 1.  I already posted this but I can't help repeat it--Butterbean is going to be a-okay and the irregular HB will go away at birth.  Yayayayayayayayayayayayayay!!! 

    2.  DH's week-long trip turned into a 2 1/2 day trip.

    3.  It rained hard at the house for about 20 minutes.

    Hooray for a sale + birthday money burning a hole in my pocket!  It's out for delivery today, yippee!  Also good news: the strap on my current bag that's hanging by strings hasn't actually snapped loose during my exhaustive bag search.

  • Great post! 

    I just found out that my district gave me 10 extra paid days of leave.  Yay for 2 weeks of leave that I didn't expect.

  • I got to see the baby and there's a super strong heartbeat (160)! 

    Still feeling cautious, but happy!! 

  • I got a promotion yesterday.  YEAH just in time for the holidays and just in time for the new baby and extra daycare fees.

    Love the teal!  Great choice! 

  • I'm in the process of making some **MAJOR** life changing decisions. Can't disclose them yet, but I'm really, REALLY excited, and really, REALLY scared. :)
  • We bought a puppy last night!  Her name is Stella and she is a 10 week old yorkie.  Aside from the almost constant crying/whining right now she is wonderful.

  • I have this secret that I can't share with anyone yet so instead I've been telling strangers.  Everyone that I tell is so excited and happy and supportive and some have even cried.  It is amazing and has been so much fun!  Stranger hugs are cool!
  • We had our a/s yesterday. It's for sure a girl and she looks perfect. Also, I finally came to terms with my depression, put my pride aside, and am going back on antidepressants. That was a huge step for me.

    dammit, I knew someone was going to ask for a pic! On my phone, let's see if this works. For the record, I needed something flattish, comfy, with a bit of style. There are some ugly boots out there!  https://m.nordstrom.com/Product/Details/3109004?origin=PredictiveSearch

    Oooohh, love!  And fur-lined?  I'd wear those every day.  (You know, in my alternate life where I live in a climate that experiences winter.)

    no, not fur-lined but still warm since they're all leather:) I'll bring those and my fuggs and call it a day.

    Well, this is just mean and wrong because now I'm DYING to know what it is!

    My good news is that DS had a virus last week that kept him out of sorts all week (that's not the good news, obv!).  Today, after a week and a half of crankiness, tantrums, late night bedtimes and morning struggles to get moving and out of the house on time, he was a delightful, perfect, funny, agreeable angel.  He was in a great mood, which put me in a great mood, and we promised each other we'd have awesome days.  So far, so good.
