I wouldn't normally start this early, but we are on the road to the hospital. DS has to have another MRI on his head, so I need major distractions for the next four hours or so.
MIL got us a Keurig and KCup holder for Christmas. It's a great gift, but DH doesn't drink coffee and she knows it. She even went so far as telling him that he basically got the shit end of the deal. His feelings were super hurt. We are returning her gift, and borrowing my moms Keurig when she comes to visit. Hopefully she won't notice, but I really don't care if she does. It was a shitty thing to do.
My SD bought me a purse for Christmas. DH said it looked really cheap so I should return it and get something that looks "less cheap". In my mind "less cheap" translated into "Coach".
My Christmas tree is already de-ornament & lighted.
Not leaving it up for Orthodox Christmas on the 7th? Lol

I intend to spend as little time as possible outside this winter. My sister was telling me yesterday how excited she was to get snow shoes for Christmas so she could do some outdoor activities with her girls, and all I could think in my head was "not in your life". I like snow and cold as long as I get to look at it from my window with a big fire on.
My Aunt bought me a Vera Bradley purse for Christmas and I don't like it. I am a plain girl when it comes to my purses. I can't take it back so I'm stuck with it. My other Aunt bought me a huge black candle holder with a glass candle holder and a candle. We have no candles in our house.
I know I sound ungrateful and a brat, but this is why I feel we need a gift exchange. I felt that they just bought something to check me off the list and I would much rather them not buy me something then waste money.
DH just dropped DS off at daycare and I am home on break! I decided that for every school vacation I'm taking a "me day". I have a hair appointment at 11 and am having lunch with a friend after that. Right now I'm thinking bubble bath, then chick flick on the couch. :-)
The baby and I are both sick. I stayed home with her yesterday, but opted to come to work today because I cannot spend another day in the house with my ILs. They are driving me nuts. And I hope E is rotten for MIL in return for all the passive agressive "parenting advice" she's been giving since she got here.

Now that DD is around, I don't get much in holiday gifts---and that makes me kinda sad. I actually don't NEED anything, but I like to be able to open something. It was partly our fault too because we talked to BIL's about just exchanging for the kids, and my MIL never gives us much anyway. For Hanukkah my parents got us a "family gift".
So yeah. I feel petty and small though for complaining.
So now I am looking at by myself a fitbit because I definitely need to get in shape and I think I need some motivation to do.
Every year my GGMIL gets me a beautiful, expensive, designer purse or wristlet for Christmas. And every year I return it for store credit because I'm still using the first one that she gave me because I love it and is absolutely perfect for what I need.
DS has soft pants that look like jeans. I want a pair of those. But not jeggings. Like, I want them to look like regular boot cut jeans but not be made of denim. Does such a thing exist for adults?

Go ahead flame away!
Sell the bag on eBay!! I am selling a VB campus double ID mil got me on there. I think she forgot I'm not in college anymore?

Craigslist, too. That's where I bought my VB purse.
I'm still freaking out over this confession, days later.
On Christmas Eve morning, Betsy was eating a clementine and started choking on the pith. I completely lost my shit and had no idea what to do. In fact I literally screamed, "Oh my god, I don't know what to do!" Thank god she coughed it up after the longest ten seconds or so of my life.

Time for a CPR refresher course.
Oh my gosh. That must have been terrifying. I can't imagine.

I really want to get out of the house though, so either I'm going shopping alone or I'm making him and DD come with me.
