@shoogapoff I am both listening (just so I know the story) and trying hard to not pay attention because stuff in DH's family tends to make my blood boil. It's drama I don't want to have to hear all the time.
It seems like neither side can act civil. Sigh.

@b_1029 Thank you! @kiki047 We will be thinking of you tomorrow. Congrats on your wedding day! Check your inbox for the honeymoon activity tips I promised!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
Took a rug runner outside to hose it down hoping that I might not need to use the wetvac to clean it (although, who was I kidding since I hadn’t washed it in a year?!) and left it outside on the fence for two days. Then a bird dribbled poop on it. Womp womp.

Do you ever wonder where some of the posters go who actually do a proper intro, but then vanish? But not even to a BMB. Or is it just me who seems to notice? Haha!

@puppylove8910 I felt the same way when I finally clicked on this thread! Hahaha. Someone else said, “This is where all the good stuff happens!” Haha. Enjoy!
@puppylove8910 This was kind of me in the winter when we first started ttc. My personal life went to hell in a hand basket (not with my husband but my mom) and we put ttc on hold. I totally ghosted as a result.
In case anyone is curious about my beach vacation, here’s an update. It got delayed because my FIL got married today. We found out about the wedding yesterday. We got to our air bnb at midnight because we took a detour to this wedding.
I am hoping for a peaceful rest of whatever is left of the weekend.
We finished the last episode of Stranger Thing last night at 11:30 and I got up just before 4 so that we can leave for vacation at 5:30 or 6. Our drive is going to be about 4.5 hours. I naturally woke up around 3:40 so somehow I am perfectly awake.

@inthewoods We are up to episode four, which was so intense! I have been scheduling Stranger Things gifs along w/ my posts from the first two seasons on the social account I run haha.
I am getting ready to watch the women's world cup (alone, since i tried to invite someone but she didn't respond until ~12 hours after I texted her and was like "10am yikes I'm not normally up by then" & by then it was too late to invite anyone else w/out feeling like it was super short notice AND like it was silly to invite ppl over so early.) DH doesn't like watching sports really, so he's mowing the lawn and being grumpy about being sore. Hopefully the game will put me in a better mood. Go Team USA!
How do we decide who’s on the monthly grad check in thread? I know we had a lot of March grads that seem like they were around a lot longer than a month or so and that a lot of us probably would love to hear from, but that breaks the “rules”...?

@b_1029 I would say that if we were to deviate from what has been past practice (those who are qualified to graduate via the weekly grad thread are those who wind up in the monthly grad thread, right?), it can't be random bc that would imply favoritism--there would have to be some other objective reason for including those who weren't qualified under the new graduation rules. ..... maybe the monthly grad thread goes by the old graduation rules? that seems like a lot of keep track of, though.
I have been waiting so patiently for the opportunity to use this! And the grad announcement thread reminded me I had it! If I get booted it’s been nice knowing everyone here!
Informal poll: I just created a new baking, crafting, cooking thread.... should I add July 2019 to the title to encourage this to be something that gets posted a-new each month, yay or nay?
@kagesstarshroom I forget what it was called, but there used to be a thread for all sorts of creative things like painting, knitting, baking, etc.
