"Double Dip Delight" 09.27.2008 - Chapter 4!

Husbands can be such babies! *no offense to you husbands out there "

The day that I went into labor with Chase, DH had a couple of teeth pulled because he was getting braces. I walked into the house with my mom and told him that the doc wanted me to go to the hospital and he was sitting back in his recliner writhing in "pain". I was so irritated that I had my mom drive me to the hospital and told Mike to meet us there when he was done being a baby. He came a couple hours later high as a kite on vicadin, but feeling a lot better I was mortified because he was wearing flannel pajama pants (at 2:00 in the afternoon), some grungy shirt, flip flops and a bandana on his head This, added to the missing teeth and drug induced weird grin on his face, I can only imagine what the hospital staff was thinking.

I dont want to lol.. but I coudnt hold it.. then I read that Denise and Kimberly did so I thought ok its safe LOL.. I love Kimberlys post about yrs from now when ya look back on it LOL. Cant wait to hear how he shows up for this baby's birth LOL

Arin, that is a great story! I read it to my mom and she thought it was funny too!

I worked at the Disney Store tonight...I had boxes up to my eyelids! We have SOOOO much merchandise and literally no where to put it. It's going to be a long week until Black Friday.

Did I tell you guys it FINALLY snowed yesterday?

 

[Buckeye Gal]

Arin, are you still having good days with little to no "day sickness"?

You didn't, but I know you were hoping for snow!!

I was reading some sites with the BF deals, including DISboards, and saw the list for The Disney Store. Of course I thought of you and how you're most likely going to be working next weekend.

Yuppers...I'm working 7:30pm - 11:30pm on BF. I have to work all day at my full time job so I can't be there during the day. My favorite time of day to work at BF is opening...but since I have the full time job, I can't do it anymore. There's nothing like be at the cash register at 4am!!!!! It's so exciting!!!

Oh no...I don't get to work at 4am...I would LOVE if i could but can't because of the full time job. I"m not a morning person but there is something about being there on Black Friday when the store first opens. Instead of being there for craziness, I have to clean up after the craziness!

 

[TheDisneyGirl02]

Just giving us a bump up from the second page!

Today we are celebrating Thanksgiving at work. We don't normally do lunches like this so it's exciting!

Hope everybody is having a great day!

omg you like working then wow...

I am one of those crazies that does the BF shopping my mom and I have for the last 10yrs. SHe usually walks out with 1 or 2 things, she doesnt like the craziess of having to buy fast but like the excitement of the day.. so she is my line holder and size runner... I now have friends that join me on that day. Usually by noon-2pm we are all done will our shopping for xmas.. or at least 80%

 

[anc22]

Arin, are you still having good days with little to no "day sickness"?

It has been really bad, but today I got a prescription for Zofran, an anti-nausea medication because I just couldn't take feeling like this anymore!
It hasn't kicked in yet, but hopefully the worst is over. I really want my appetite back by Thanksgiving!

BLACK FRIDAY: I have NEVER gone shopping on black friday. I am, at times, easily annoyed so I have never attempted it. Getting up that early has never sounded good either. Maybe I will give it a try this year since I know I won't have to worry about being hungover from Thanksgiving the night before

L.M.A.O.
I can so totally picture that too!

Denise, I hope Steve is feeling better!

Bless you for being so enthusiastic!
No way in the world would I have the patience for that!

Yeah, that should help you a lot.
That's what they gave me last year when I had that killer virus at Christmas...knocked me on my butt for a week, I go thte ZOfran and was eating two hours later, no joke. PLus I still had regular morning sickness then and after that it really seemed to dissapear. Here's hoping the same for you!
The DR in my practice made such a big deal about it when he prescribed it too, telling me its what they use for cancer patients on chemo, so that if it didn't work for me, there was nothing else... I was SOL. (I think they were all tired of hearing me complain! )

BLACK FRIDAY: I have NEVER gone shopping on black friday.

I used to go to the mall on BF, back when I was in high school and college. I swear they did NOT make such a big deal about BF back then (hey...it wasn't *that* long ago )Of course I must have only been there to look because we always used to do our Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve back then...
I don't go to either extreme anymore.

I've been spending all week looking for my T-giving recipes....I don't know how I manage to lose them every single stinkin year. Now that I've found them I'm in the process of typing them up in word so I can just have them in the computer so I don't have to look around frantically every year.
(Anything to put off making this grocery shopping list!)

Hope you all have a great day!

 

[Magic3forme]

Arin: I hope Zofran works for you. I still felt awful while taking it.

John is our BF shopper. ( normally since someone has to stay home and watch the kids.

 

[Grandma4ever]

I am so sorry for all the loss and illness that I have read about. Wanted to stop by and say HI and wish all a very Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Hope every one stays safe. Janet and I are going to visit her mom and step dad then to see her dad and step mom. We will be gone for w week. I will lurk more when we return. Lois

 

[pfishgirl]

I admit, I am a Black Friday shopper.. IF the deals are worth it

DS & I both went out at 4am last year to get to Staples for some amazing deals and we got everything but 1 item on our list.

 

[pfishgirl]

Search pfishgirl. That's how I found her!

Umm... you have me and *shell* confused

 

[scoutsmom99]

I haven't been posting, but I have been lurking I'm in deep post DCL depression. I so wish we were all back on the ship (especially after seeing the wind chill tomorrow is supposed to be -1 )

Arin congratulations on your bundle of joy. When we returned from the cruise we found out my SIL (not the newly married one) was pregnant she is due June 2.

I hope everyone and their families are doing well

 

[TheDisneyGirl02]

Umm... you have me and *shell* confused

Sorry!!!!! I can't keep anything straight anymore!!!!

Just had the winter weather prediction for around here...it's going to be cold and snowy...just the way I like it!!!

At least he showed up. The day I told DH that I was pregnant he was on pain meds for a wreck he had been in the week before. It was Thanksgiving morning and I was so freaked out about being pregnant, it didn't help that when I told him all I got was a very blank stare. I SWEAR it looked as if he was thinking 'Well dang, how did THAT happen'. I was so mad at him.

It has been really bad, but today I got a prescription for Zofran, an anti-nausea medication because I just couldn't take feeling like this anymore!

Ok..having worked a TON of Black Fridays I can honesty say I DON'T shop on them. The day after Christmas is a different story but not BF. I'm usually putting up my Christmas tree that day.

 

[pfishgirl]

Well... I go back to NJ tonight... To the FREEZING cold weather.. but I am going home to my Hubby and our Son and My Kitty!!

Hubby and I are staying tonight at Harrah's resort in Atlantic City cause my flight gets into to AC at midnight..

Apparently 2 grown men can not handle keeping my Cat in-line.. He has been seen sitting ON the dining room table, which is a HUGE No No when I am home!!
