Re: Weekly Randoms go here...
Glad I'm not the only one who reacted this way
I didn't open the thread after this morning Bc I figured it was a support discussion for our gals btwn the 1-3hr tests.
And so much yes on the many-thread poster (probs also may).
The way a see it---moms/mil generation is way more active on FB than most of my friends are now. Most of us have grown out of it, but the older generation is very much into all things Facebook.
There is a 20 year age gap between me and my counterpart at work and all she does is say what she has seen on Facebook.
And im just like, but have you seen these tater tots?
@MsBeachNJ I will continue keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers. The waiting I'm sure is excruciating
@shannonrnbsn I absolutely LOVE that gift! It's amazing lol
Briefly on the gun topic: H and I are both CCW license holders. H carries more often than I do but usually only if we go in a sketchy area (we live in Columbus, OH so there are some not nice areas). He also carries if we go somewhere late at night. We've been doing grocery shopping on Friday nights (because we're super cool) and it does make me feel better knowing he has it especially since it's dark when we're loading and unloading the groceries from the car. I've carried a couple times but that's about it. We went to a restaurant to watch a UFC fight a couple weekends ago and I carried it because I wouldn't be drinking and I felt safer with it just being around a bunch of intoxicated people watching a violent fight. I hope and pray we never ever have to use a gun but sometimes it is nice to have.
That being said when we're at home the guns are kept in a safe, in a not visible place, and only H and I know the code to it. We feel safe in our neighborhood and don't feel we need it by the bed and hope that if an intruder came they would either 1- hear the dog and leave or 2- the dog would give us enough warning for H to get the gun from the safe and me call the police. If we ever wanted it loaded by the bed we would get a small fingerprint safe to keep in the nightstand that only H and I would have access too. I think it is extremely important to be smart, responsible gun owners!
*is lurking again because thanks heartburn I was really hoping you'd keep me up tonight NOT*
Wait, we're punking you? How did I not know about this? Should I also be posting entire threads where I pretend to be creating a supportive environment but actually use it to brag about myself?
(Don't know about the many-threads poster because I don't lurk that much [though we def have one or two of those on our own BMB], but I don't think the person who started the particular thread y'all are discussing is from May. Or if they are, they aren't a regular poster...while I do think we should definitely get y'all back for bombing us, I'd like to think that our regs are better than that.)
@MamaNicoleof3 she was one of my TWs.
@amberraysofdawn I kind of love that gif.

@shannonrnbsn, that sign is amazing.
@dennyandlee--no, you are not alone. If I could keep our air set to 65 or lower I totally would. Last time I was pregnant we lived in a hotel for a few months and I kept that room so cold hubby wore a coat or sweatshirt basically all the time and I was in shorts and a t-shirt comfortably.
@sgoldberg247, we still haven't said anything on Facebook. I think at the point we are just going to wait until I have the baby and post about it then. However, I'd be mad if my MIL got more likes then me, although some PP have some good ideas as to why that happened.
I cant remember who else I was going to reply to.
Is it sad that this is basically the only post I really keep up with anymore? Well, this and my weekly ticker change.
my random: picked up a nail in our brand new tires. They are not sure if it's fixable. Happy St. Pat's to me! Where's me luck o' the Irish?
Triplets due 6/29/16 also from an IUI!
Years ago my sister had a son on the way and they were decorating the nursery in "pirate" theme (but not skull & crossbones- more cutesy.) So I did a series of 4 tea stained cross stitch scenes in 12inch hoops of the four Whale Wars boats. I even had the Ady Gil cross stitch depicting the boat in its broken state.
H: Hey there, did you sleep ok?
Me: Hrmph, grumf, grumble. Yep.
H: You're not wearing green *pinch*

I'm the girl that lived in Santa Fe for 3 years without once turning on the heat in my casita. I used to never get cold.
I couldn't extricate myself from my pregnant lady pillow nest fast enough to swat him before he bounced away like a damn leprechaun. Grr.
