  • Prayers @BiggerinRealLife

    I finally got a good night sleep last night and that has left me...wanting more sleep!  Glad it's Friday.  They are talking potential cancelled school on Monday due to cold weather.  A 3 day weekend would be nice but that cancelled day would have to be made up at the end of the school year while I am on leave...unpaid.

    Got word yesterday that there is finally a decent timeline as to when DH will be getting his promotion! It looks like it will be next month   <:-P \:D/

    With this promotion and raise he will be making more than he ever has and our financial life will be a bit easier. 
    Yay!! Does this mean you will be able to get a new car?
  • Happy Birthday @colleenswerb!!!!

  • Please tell me that I am not the only one that envisions someone walking around holding her placenta still attached to her every time you read the "I hate my placenta" title? It's her baby's placenta that she hates, right? Seriously. Every time. I wish I could edit it.
    Have you heard of Lotus Birth? You don't cut the baby's umbilical cord and wait until it detaches on it's own, thus having to carry the placenta around for about a week. To each his own I guess.
  • T&P's @biggerinreallife and @zebnmichelle!

    Glad everything turned out OK and you got to see your little guy @aronie82

    @fireflygirl12 It will definitely help since we wont have to rely on trading in our current car. With his raise we will be able to have 2 car payments as long as the new one is reasonable :)
    YAy, so much less stress!

    The Boys names up for grabs thread makes me want to TP someone because our name is on it. Gee I'm so glad you tossed aside our name so we're free to use it..,because you own the name. Had you not thrown it out there for me to "grab" I wouldn't be able to use it!! Gasp!!!

    Sorry I'm still having contraction and have a horrible headache and I feel like being a total stabby bitch today. Not to you RTT ladies tho!

    Not bitchy. That thread irratated the shit out of me. Free to a good home? Gee fucking thank you!

    Agreed....the tone of the thread was really off putting. Was it supposed to be a list of approved supposedly second rate names? 

    Or was it someone reaching for attention.... So tell us since these are all second rate names... What fantastic name did you actually come up with!?!?

    Yikes I'm feisty

  • Work is several hours away and I'm already pouting that I can't spend the whole day in DH's t shirt and no pants.

    I didn't even think of that @Mamamonzo! That has to be the reason for the list of rejects.


    And I couldn't help it either after you commented @jellysparkles! Oh well.
    Oops... I may have just stirred the pot more.

  • @poru - my toddler totally house egg salad all the time last summer, lol! Although I don't know if he would touch it now. I have been sort of craving it, but haven't wanted to put in the effort of making it, and wegman's hasn't had any when I've looked recently. They make a REALLY good egg salad.

    I generally love egg salad!! In the first tri I had a terrible egg salad sandwich and can't bring myself to eat one again. Total sad panda.

  • Now I really feel like a brat. In my FFFC I said I was waiting to hear about DH's cousin's baby to see what they named her. (They did pick the same name, but that's besides the point). Apparently the baby is healthy but they couldn't stop the bleeding with mom and they almost took her ute. She lost a lot of blood. Very scary. They just got it to completely stop this morning and she delivered on Wednesday.

    And I was worried about the stupid name...
  • @Vinny424- Yes please, there is more than enough to go around! My mind thinks we can eat all of these, but my stomach knows better than that ;)
  • I have a question about filing taxes. We normally file through taxslayer and have always done pretty well with them but can anyone else recommend anything better to go through? Is it worth taking our W-2s to a place like H&R block and have them do it, even though we are only doing a simple return?

  • @j&amp;nl I normally do mine online at h&r and turbo tax just to double check that they are coming up with the same thing and then just file with one or the other. My dad is a CPA and could do it but he always gets the same numbers for me. H&R and turbo are free for most military ranks
  • I got my very first bloody nose EVER this morning! Yay pregnancy! Yay dry winters! I know that's kinda gross and "whatever" but I think to go 23 years without a nosebleed is pretty impressive.

    I've gone 25. ;) Which I also think is impressive! I will freak if it ever happens to me.

  • Thanks @Vinny424 I feel like I should send something or do something but I'm not even sure if we should know. Usually DH's side of the family is very quick to spread the word, but we haven't heard a word from anyone in that immediate family. The only reason we found out is because his mom got a text from his aunt. I don't even have the phone number of anyone to call. They aren't super close and we usually use a private fb group to keep in touch.

    Any ideas on what I should do? Should I send something in a few weeks maybe? His mom didn't have all the details but made it sound like she wasn't leaving the hospital soon.

    You would think an elementary school teacher would know how to properly use the right form of "your" in "you're welcome."

    I was awakened in the middle of the night to DH crying and holding me. He had a dream where I died and he was really upset about it.

    I dream that he dies/leaves me all of the time... But that moment didn't seem appropriate to share that with him...

    How sad. I hate dreams like that.

  • @J&amp;NL if it's just a simple return and you don't have a ton of deductions or claims, then Turbotax or whatever program is just fine.

    What is the best way to go about deciding whether to file married or separately? We got married in February last year.. Is it always a great idea to file together?

    No. I know an elementary school teacher who just got her very first teaching position and says "hisself." What!? No! Not a word! That's one of the first things you learn in grammar.

    ---
    I use the turbo tax free version and always just do it both way married filing joint, and married filing separate and go with what will give us the most. In the three years I've been married, I've always gotten more back doing joint.

    We use TaxActOnline. I like it.
