Tuesday Spam (because yesterday was fun)

skruhmin · July 2015

Post whatever you want. Bonus points for awesome gifs or memes - like we're talking craving fulfillment and no morning sickness on steroids.

blueeyedrose86 · July 2015

I got the Lego Jurassic World game last week and IT MAKES ME NAUSEOUS. Wtf?? All I want to do is plaaaay.

wmarley · July 2015

Yay for spam threads! Just caught up on yesterdays. Sciatic nerve pain can suck it. I am so uncomfortable all day (wahhh!). Also morning sickness is hitting this week so sorry for being whiney.

We are going to buy a new fridge. When we moved into our new house it leaked, had no door shelves and was missing a drawer. Well last week I kicked my foot (accidentally) through the other drawer because it wouldn't close right. Apparently, no drawers was the last straw since we have been putting up with the other stuff for 9 months now.

So a friend got me started watching Pretty Little Liars (which is not exactly my norm) and I can.not.stop.watching. Will we ever find out who A is? Will these girls ever graduate high school? Am I ever going to grow up and start adulting?

How I feel admitting I watch PLL:

We have to buy a new fridge before we move at the end of August and I'm kind of dreading it. I know it will last several years but I have a hard time paying a lot of money for appliances. And of course the only ones I like are the most expensive ones 8-|

I'm taking anatomy & physiology I as a summer intensive and my brains are about to ooze out of my ears. I'm having to memorize things students would normally have a whole week to learn- I mean we're talking hundreds of things each night. I'm at the point where it makes me fee sick just thinking about it (of course some of that could also be due to the thought of having to smell that stinkin formaldehyde every day). Only a week and 2 days, 4 tests to go though. I can do this!!???

If you're moving at the end of August, wait for Labor Day sales

we just saved a ton on appliances over 4th of July sales

skruhmin · July 2015

I just spilled the beans about my pregnancy to my grandparents who live halfway across the country over email. I hate talking on the phone so I blamed it on no energy and feeling horrible (which is very accurate).

I really wish we could wait that long! The house won't have a refrigerator in it and we're moving from an apartment, so can't take it with us. We'd need it delivered no later than the 29th, so we'll probably have to buy around mid-August.
I wish back to school sales included kitchen appliances.

skruhmin · July 2015

@fwtx5815 you might be ok(??). I know with Black Friday sales, all of the appliance people told us they start at the beginning of November, so maybe they'll start mid August?

My 6.5 yr old loves that game! I think he's beat it 2x already!

skruhmin · July 2015

I'm going to sounds super whiney and spoiled here, but I just want my house to be done!! We've been living with my in-laws since the beginning of April and it won't be done until October (we are building and we knew it would be a long haul). We had a month of delay because the entire month of May was rainy. We've picked out all of the finishes and appliances. I WANT IT DONE!!! I'm tired of living in the basement. We have a great relationship with them but it's hard to live with anyone for that long!! (But I am thankful for the help while I'm feeling ultra poopy - she watches our boys during the day)

I have a Vitamix - it's in storage. I love it. We bought mother in law a Blendtec as a thank you for letting us live there. I used it this morning for the first time and I fell in love. Sooooo I might buy a Blendtec for us and sell our Vitamix when it's out of storage. See? Spoiled!

I just want to sleep through the next 7 weeks until the morning sickness is done.

I'm due March 30th so I feel like I'm late to the party but excited to start joining in more!!

It's been kind of slow so far so you're not missing out on much.

reesaXden · July 2015

Hopefully it starts picking up more once everyone is out of the "I feel like poop" stage!!

I am SO tired. ALL THE TIME. I'm a therapist and I'm currently laying on the couch in my office in between appointments hoping for a quick nap.

Yesterday you people made me want chicken wings (I'm a vegetarian!) and now I want a new fridge! Thanks bumpies!!! =D> <:-P

fwtx5815 · July 2015

I have a miscellaneous complaint:
When women make comments about how it's expected that other women cause drama, as if our sex organs have pre-determined our penchant for stirring shit up.
It's sexist and bs and I don't like it. Men have "drama" too. They have disagreements over the Internet also.
Especially when a woman make these comments, all I can think is how it's a shame she doesn't think more highly of her fellow vagina-having humans.

mrspepper05 · July 2015

After my horrible day of nausea yesterday, I suddenly feel great today! I put dinner in the crockpot, got on the floor to play with my girls, did 3 loads of laundry (well, at least washed, dried, and threw in laundry baskets - no folding yet), and vacuumed! Aaaaand now my back is killing me and I will be sitting on the couch watching Friends for the next two hours while my girls are napping. Winning!

Hernsy · July 2015

Forget buying a refrigerator. I hate paying for toilet paper. Necessary but so expensive for something to wipe with.

Stormiewinter · July 2015

@fwtx5815 I also hate spending the money (obviously since I put up with it leaking for 9 months), but dh's parents offered to split half the cost for an anniversary gift and there was just no excuse after that lol. I just bought ours at the Sears outlet. I highly recommend if you have one near you. They actually had a really nice side by stainless steel fridge for 400$ (minor cosmetic damage on the side). Unfortunately we have counter and cabinet to side and above so it wouldn't fit. We did however buy a new kenmore 21 cf which is 3 cubic feet bigger than what we had for less than 600$. So I am happy.

This is how I feel about buying trash cans. You are literally throwing your money away. And they're so blooming expensive!

weisba24 · July 2015

Lol. I watch PLL too

hopefully in four episodes we will find out who A is!

EmeraldSea · July 2015

Another pll fan and I totally think Sara is Bethany and she is teamed up with Charles. We better find out!

Ew, no.... Spam has NEVER sounded good!!! Lol

bheatz22 · July 2015

I've spent the last three days trying to figure out how to get health insurance from now until September. My insurance from my last job lapsed and the insurance from my new job doesn't kick in until September 1st. I literally spent hours trying to figure out how to pay for the 2 appointments I have scheduled without going broke. My husband makes $50 too much for me to get medicaid and there's nothing my company can do to help me.

The most frustrating part. I can see Canada from my house. If I was on the other side of the river....all my healthcare would be free and I'd get WAY longer maternity leave!!

This is how I feel!!!

skruhmin · July 2015

Anyone else get annoyed reading other pregnancy boards if you google something? These ladies have no concept of grammar whatsoever. 90% of the posts are so hard to follow.

I watch PLL too! Time to wrap it up! I want to move on with my life. Who is A?!!!?!

TheRealVeronicaSawyer · July 2015

I watch PLL, too, but I'm only at the beginning of season 3. I need to catch up, but all I seem to watch on TV anymore is HGTV....I really want to move!!!

Hullabaloo2016 · July 2015

All the PLL fans, you know the series is based off of books, right? I know who A is! If the tv series follows the books.

flowerpower5838 · July 2015

No spoilers please @Hullabaloo2016! Lol, yes I am aware it is also a book series. I'm currently reading the Game of Thrones books (on a Clash of Kings so quite a ways to go) so no plans on starting it either. PLL is more of a guilty pleasure that I indulge in on Netflix from time to time.

You guys ever watch shows and just keep watching because you feel like you've invested so much time that you have to keep going?

What....just me??

Ummmmm kind of with Lost but then just gave up because it just kept going (that and there were other shows I wanted to watch so I just forgot about it)

flowerpower5838 · July 2015

@skruhmin we did with Lost as well. It got a little....out there? But I stuck it out and of course hated the ending.

TheRealVeronicaSawyer · July 2015

My DH and I stopped watching Lost when there were about three or four episodes left. Then, about a year later, I decided I couldn't leave it like that and we watched it all. I wish I wouldn't have wasted the time. I did love the first few seasons though. I loved Desmond!

flowerpower5838 · July 2015

@KellyLe1gh Desmond! Loved him - so romantic and dreamy.

Couldn't you do a Cobra with your old insurance usually they give you a few weeks to sign up.

I believe the problem with COBRA is it's typically $$$$ from my experience.

It was WAY too expensive for 6 weeks. Like almost as much as my rent and there was no way I could afford it. I didn't know I was pregnant and now it's too late.

It was insanely expensive! I was shocked. No way I could afford it since my start date got pushed back a month.
