I am so excited to meet LO. She's been crazy active and I love it.

But seriously... she is such a pain in the ass. My sciatic nerve is so pissed off, it literally feels like my right butt cheek is ripping away from my pelvis. WHY?!?!?

ETA: I'm a mess.

LOL that GIF is the perfect way to describe having a child.

Guise. Have any of you ever cleaned your washers? I just did mine and it was nasty. Like, sludge inside the gasket mildewy gross. I always leave the door open so it can dry/air out and wipe the gasket occasionally, but I had no idea the detergent dispenser and inside of the gasket could be so gross. Currently running a cleaning cycle with bleach.

Basically, I had no idea I was so disgusting.

I made a loaf of banana bread last weekend and some banana nut muffins. Well it is almost ALL gone. I have been snacking on it daily. I made a slightly healthier version but I am sure I should still slow down. I told DH I wanted to make more this weekend - he said "we'll talk about it" - What the hell is there to talk about! Its banana bread!! We have a pretty busy weekend but still... I must find time for bread =P~

Banana bread doesn't last 24 hours in my house, so I think you have done pretty darn good.

(sigh) All these dessert bread talk is making me hungry. I just told DH that within the next 24 hours he needs to acquire at least one of the following:

1. cronuts
2. banana bread
3. zucchini bread
4. cinnamon babka

Ooh, what is cinnamon babka?

@pnwlover12

here is a chocolate babka from the place DH would go to... Sub-cinnamon and sugar for all the chocolate!

I have no idea what the gasket is... so that would be a no, but now I'm thinking I should. Sometimes I do run empty hot cycles with bleach but that's the extent of my cleaning skills! Help??

If you have a front-loader, its the rubber thing in the door area. I lifted up a part I didn't realized moved today (closer to the drum) and found all the sludge. ew ew ew. I ended up scrubbing all the gasket folds with a toothbrush dipped in bleach/water solution.

OK I have a random... There is a huge wild fire close to my house, over 600 people evacuated. 3000+ acres burned... They are evacuating homes less than a half mile from my house..... Really hope we don't have to evacuate! I don't even know what I'd take, besides my pets... :-S
ETA: I hit the wrong smiley

A random seems like the wrong word!!! Thinking of you! Yes pets!!

@Saragoeswest‌ that's a long drive! I'm assuming you're talking about your drive... I hope you enjoy your showers this weekend!

Am I only supposed to wash LO's clothes one age group at a time? And just hold on to the others with tags? I feel like somebody mentioned this..

From what I have read, it seems like it is a personal preference thing. Some people do it all ahead of time to save the headache when baby comes. Some people only do some of the clothes knowing baby won't use them all.

I am a FTM so I am undecided.

Is anyone watching Outlander in Starz? Hoping to have some Jamie/Claire love up in TB

I don't have real TV but I've read like the first 4 or 5 books and THEY'RE AMAZING. I'll take Jamie any day. Mmmhhmmm.....

Yeah me too. I just feel like even with the tags on, I still can't return them. I might just wash them all.

I just need the dresser I ordered to arrive so as I was, I can stow them away.

@onelilroo‌ scary about the fire!!

I never return anything but I would probably bring them to consignment so I don't know.

Speaking of Starz, does anyone watch Power? I started watching an episode a night while I'm on the treadmill.

golfingdarwinfish · August 2014

@jalara So sorry to hear about your sister.

Hope it's nothing serious and she's back home asap.

TheOtherJacobsons · August 2014

Ok, I have procrastinated for the last hour and a half to avoid going to the gym. I actually worked instead of going. This is how bad it is. I haven't been to the gym in 2 months. It's bad. I am going to go because I have to keep up this sexy figure of mine.

Yeah, that first episode was GOOD. I'm so excited to watch the rest of the show. Problem is, we don't have Starz, and it would be a huge deal to get it (we have the most basic of basic cable, and would need a box and everything else to get any pay channels). My ILs had said they would order it, so we could watch it streaming at our house through their account, but I'm not sure whether that ever happened. FX that it did, I really don't want to have to wait for DVD for this.

I've been reading the Outlander books at the rate of 1/year for the past 4 or 5 years (the last one I read was The Fiery Cross - is that 4 or 5?). I always read it in the fall, so it's almost Outlander time for me. I'm trying to stretch out the series and make it last. I absolutely adore the books.

jbuck909 · August 2014

@SusieBW I'll have to put that on my to do list soon!!!! We just started getting the most basic of basic tv, and cable is waaaay to expensive. FX your IL follow through, that'd be great!!! If they do, keep me updated!

1/year???? How can you deal with the suspense??!?!? But I'm also kind of a binge reader, so I read the first 4 one right after another. They are really great books, and I think she's still writing them!!!!
