Re: Randoms w/o 1/28

  • DS1’s preschool is delayed today, so obviously this means I just called out for the day lol. He’ll be on the bus in about an hour, and then I’m lounging and packing for our move. If only the builder would tell us when our house will be done 😪

  • @cmbt2, is preschool delayed for temperature? We are in the midst of this polar vortex, and I woke up to windchills of negative 50 degrees F. I am not amused.

  • Loading the player...
  • @galentine no, snow. The roads were a mess this morning. They’re also calling for more this afternoon. I don’t do snow. I live in the wrong freaking state for hating snow

  • @lillywonderland, HI FRIEND!!

    And I fully expect some lurking here. It's only fair since I lurk September BMB like it's my job 😂
  • We are polar vortexing here also, here is a pic of the ice inside the door frame at the moment lol ugh 


    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker
  • @cmbt2 Good luck with the move! Is it in the same city or are you making a big change?
    GL to everyone in this Polar Vortex! Jeeze! It's going to be 57 degrees here today and that's too cold for me. I would turn into an ice sculpture if I had to deal with negative fifty!
    @lillywonderland Yay for lurking!! I have almost commented in the September BMB about a hundred times because my lurkdom runs deep.

    I sliced my finger cutting my bagel in half this morning. The bleeding finally stopped, but I am so mad at myself because right before I cut myself I thought, "You know, you should probably move your finger." *facepalm*

    @galentine I feel like I have missed you a buttload and a half. (@elle-0409 also). How are you enjoying being KU?? How’s life in general? Are you thinking it’s triplets?!? Because...you know...


    @elle-0409 I believe they call that “bagel finger” 😆😆 It’s avocado hands’ cousin! Also, why you no comment?!?! I love you and will tell people to gtfo if they say anything.

  • @elle-0409 we’re moving about 35 minutes away. Our daycare and DS1’s preschool will all stay the same (he’s in an integrated/inclusion program so he’s safe since we chose a program that is accepted by both our current county and new one), but it’s so much more convenient. We signed the contract to build almost 11 months ago and the lack of communication is a major source of frustration for us. The house should have been done in the fall 🤦🏼‍♀️

    I sliced my finger a few months ago like that. I was so mad! Like, I knew to move my finger but didn’t do it in time. Epic fail 👎🏻

    @lillywonderland LOL! Luckily, I have yet to experience "avocado hands" and will do my best to delay that particular adventure for as long as possible.
    And girl, be careful what you wish for! I'm gonna turn into a total party crasher!

    @cmbt2 See?? We know better, but then cut our hands anyway! *sigh* That's great that your son's schools will remain the same. Hopefully, your house gets done soon!

  • @lillywonderland, aww you are so sweet. I miss you a buttload and a half too! Life is good, and being KU is great. I don't really have symptoms yet, other than maybe insomnia. How about you?? How many weeks are you now?

    And LOL to triplets!! Did you ever catch the episode early in the series when Leslie goes on a date with an MRI technician? He gives her a free MRI during their date (creepy!!) and tells her her ute is great and she should go for triplets right off the bat.
    I rewatched the series recently, and I freaked out at this scene! Total foreshadowing!! But in answer to your question, NO, I do not anticipate triplets 😂
  • @elle-0409, your poor finger! Hope the bagel was tasty enough to be worth it!
  • @elle-0409 I hereby give you full permission.


  • I seriously don't think I could do -50.  I moved from Colorado to Texas for a reason, well multiple reasons but the +50 degree winters were one of them.  Stay warm friends!! 

    I have an OBGYN appointment tomorrow.  I made it for 10:30am so I could sleep in.  ;)  I'm really-really looking forward to sleeping tomorrow.  It's pretty much all I can daydream about today. 

  • @elle-0409 @lillywonderland so glad to hear bagel finger is a thing and it's not just me. I knick myself weekly. Bagels are tricky SOBs. 
  • @galentine I vaguely remember that episode. There’s some clever writers on that show!!! 😜 I’m 7wks today (woo!) and I have no symptoms other than tiredness and no AF, LOL. Thank godness for that, I hate tampons and pads and all that sh*t. I didn’t have any MS with my son, so I’m not anticipating it to show up at my door soon (but I did have tailbone pain ~8-10wks). I was that super annoying PG girl who loooooved pregnancy and had the best time ever and it was great!! Pls don’t hate me, lol!
  • Hi all! I just intro'd above. I'm currently in the process of trying to find childcare for my daughter 2 days per week and it seems IMPOSSIBLE. I'm so stressed about this! 
  • Snow over here, too. Since we live right through a small patch of forest away from DC, I regularly take friends of DD1 home with us at pick up. Like every Wednesday a different friend will come along and play at our place until their parents come. This way DD1 is occupied and I can collect brownie points for some reciprocal babysitting on date nights or similar. Bonus? With all the snow, everyone was outside until pickup and nice and tired for bedtime.

    Definitely makes up for the days where I am seriously debating sealing off the playroom and just throwing in some goldfish crackers every half hour.

    ^^me too! Loved being pregnant! 

    Ahhh. Stuck in the quote box because I am on mobile 👎

    Hi! I introed on TTGP and you were really kind and welcoming and then I never came back lol. In my defence, I introed and then went on a 5 cruise and then it was thanksgiving, and then it was christmas, and I just never had a chance to particpate the way I would have liked so I just decided to fade quietly into the background lol. So glad to see you got your BFP! 

    Edit: Forgot something I wanted to say. Is it too early to blame pregnancy brain?

  • @ceclarlinetlo Oh my gosh, that baby shower sounds AMAZING! I’ve been binging the show (again) and only feel slightly bad that I should be doing dishes instead of watching “The One Where No One’s Ready” and mobile bumping.

  • @elle-0409 I should have done many things this evening. I did manage to get some work done, but I've had such a chill, I've been huddled under the blankets lurking BMBs. I need to get it together lol
  • @ceclarlinetlo ohmygosh that's amazing! I need pictures and maybe an invite 😂
  • I work at night after ds goes to sleep and friends on nick @ nite is my favorite thing haha
  • @ceclarlinetlo aww, thanks!! 😊 I hope your pregnancy this time around is as awesome as your last one was!!
  • @SLou24 childcare around here is also stretched to the max and getting spots is next to impossible. 

    We already secured a spot for this little one last week, or we’d be SOL by the time I returned to work.

  • Am I the only one up? That’s okay, I’ll talk to myself. 

    I‘m enjoying the quiet before the storm that is my children and having my measly two cups of coffee. 

    I miss alcohol. The day I got my positive (because I’m that SS who has higher hcg at night), I stocked up with the leinenkugel winter porter and now I have 3 cases sitting in my garage. I’m hoping they hold flavor for 9 months 🙈

    Does anyone else play Pokémon go?... maybe I should have saved this for tomorrow’s FFFC. Oh well

    i’m just full of randoms today.

  • @ceclarlinetlo, could that baby shower BE any more amazing?! I am so impressed and so jealous! I want an invite to this shower! Please tell me the invite says something along the lines of "The One with SILs Baby Shower"

    It was “the one where SIL has a baby” lol. And it also said “OH...MY...GOD...SIL and DH have found their lobsters and are expecting baby T. Please join us for a Friends themed shower to celebrate his impending arrival” 

    I probably only like friends half as much as her (I am a parks and rec girl, like yourself lol) but I have had SO much fun putting this together. I did an a similarly over the top Harry Potter party for Halloween this year. I think I have found a niche in pop culture themed parties lol. But HP and Friends will be tough to beat so I am thinking about retiring while on top 😂

    @galentine I know you didn't ask, but there are some pics from the HP party.
    This autographed photo of Viktor Krum was the prize for catching the golden snitch I hid. I made our costumes too. DS was Dobby and I was Hermione promoting SPEW. DH was a generic gryffindor because I ran out of time lol.
    edit: to put these enormous pics in a spoiler

  • @ceclarlinetlo, omg you definitely have found your calling as a niche pop culture party planner! I love the Hogwarts letters coming out of the fireplace!! <3


  • @ceclarlinetlo Oh my gosh, that HP theme is EPIC! I live close to Universal Studios and have so much Harry Potter merchandise it's ridiculous. I figure that once I get huge in this pregnancy, I'll just wear my Gryffindor robe everywhere.

    We went to HP world this past April and it was THE BEST. I am such a hufflepuff lol. I hate that the books make it out to be bad to be a Hufflepuff. I tried to deny it forever, and pass as a Ravenclaw,  but I finally caved and accepted my true house. I really do value loyalty above the other house characteristics and I am hard-working to a fault.

  • For our next thread that has a GTKY question, we should ask "what's your HP house?" It would be fun to see what house everyone is in.
  • By the way, @ceclarlinetlo, would you be willing to edit your posts and spoiler the photos? I think the large photos are making it hard to load the page on my slow internet connection!

    I would be happy to! I have no idea how but I’ll have some time to figure it out here in a little bit. Its been 2 years since I have “bumped” because we moved over to a fb group after the babies came, and spoilering pics/gifs is new to me. I was wondering why people were putting gifs as spoilers but that makes a lot of sense! 

    Edit to add: OK I figured it out thanks to the guide in the board organization thread so thanks for whoever typed that up! Made it super easy. 

    Now the question is - is there a way to keep the pics from being enormous in the first place? I feel like if someone clicks to see, it would still struggle to load if their connection is slow?

  • @ceclarlinetlo that HP party!!! and the Friends baby shower!!! Wow.

    @galentine I am definitely not excessively hard-working but I feel like Hufflepuff is more my kind of jam regardless. Also our doormat is yellow with badgers on it.
