POP'ers who have bonded - (new home!)

[Nanu57v]

hahahah Glad it's not just me! Cat is giving me makeup & hair lessons over the internet! I'm sooo clueless...But I did have fun at Ulta the other day....

Seriously, I just decided I needed to stop "waiting" to take care of myself - kwim? I'm always waiting....till I lose weight, till we have more money.,,till the kids have everything they need.....till hell freezes over....whatever...I'm just tired of always being 900th on my list of people & things to take care of. I didn't used to be like that. I'm not sure if it's just getting caught up in everyday life, or if it's the combination of raising 2 kids, still mourning the one that died, dealing with Lupus, or Mike really poopooing my spending when it's for myself...Regardless...it stops NOW. I told Mike, if he can golf, fish, buy himself clothes & whatever....I can go to Disney, scrap & buy myself stuff too...& you know what he said ? " well, that's the Chris I married, where've ya been? "... So I'm serioulsy going to make an effort to take care of my own wants/needs better...not saying I can go bust the bank...but within reason.

hmm, didn't realize I stepped up on my soapbox there.

I wish it wasn't pouring...Casey & I need to go shopping for some shorts & spring stuff for her. But the mall she likes is outdoors!blah...maybe we'll wait till next weekend.

Oh, Chris...I need remedial lessons from you too! I am so awful with spending money on myself. I don't wear makeup just because I never really learned (mom/grandma never wore it), and I have really good skin. Its just now that I'm about to leave my 20's, I'm starting to notice some blahness to my skin. DH and I were just talking about this today, how we get to the Walmart checkout and its $80 and I feel wrought with guilt...and I didn't even buy anything for myself. He doesn't give it a second thought. I work so hard to save every penny, and he'll pay someone to walk out to the mailbox to get the mail if he could. I just want to say F-it (I don't swear, but I couldn't think of the alternative), and go on a credit card shopping spree or something, but I can only really spend money when it is for others, not me. So give me some of your moxie!

So....what's going on? DD's birthday and party was yesterday...good times...very tired today. I'm so happy this baby's birthday will be in the summer. Cookout and sprinklers. Or party at the playground. Much easier and cheaper.

[Nanu57v]

I'm wondering what Chris is up to....I think she decided to live there.

I'm doing same old same old.

 

[Nanu57v]

She's back - but remember....someone got sick when she left - remember? I can't remember who she said got sick. Maybe her husband's grandmother? Because she needed to find someone to watch the dogs, cuz her hubby had to go somewhere too, while they were gone.

 

[CathrynRose]

I just looked - Her husband's G-ma passed away.

 

[Nanu57v]

It was a T-shirt PJ--the por favor mantengo one..

I thought Chris was kind of absent lately...thanks for looking it up Cat.


Chris actually got me the shirt when she was at WDW, but she signed the return address "mickey."

Very nice shirt!!

So i did it, i finally booked my airfare for wdw in august. Omg, what happened to this who ecomony breakdown?? Its not affecting the airlines at all. I figured the seats would be cheap, i payed more for airfare than i ever did. It cost me $900 for 3 round trip tickets from nyc to orlando on jetblue.

It was 89 here today. Actually had to put my A/c on. We went to a local amusment ride park in brooklyn, ds kept saying that this place was nothing like disney and he rather be there.

So whats everyone up too???

Oh yea guess what??
The third week of may the FDNY has a special games designed for its members. It consists of 3 member teams from every fire house that wants to compete. Each fire house can only have one, 3 member team. The first place winners go to florida sometime later this year to compete in the national fire and police games, all expensies paid by the FDNY. Well my fire house has voted me on our fire houses team. Its me and 2 other guys. So i guess we will see how good we do and maybe i'll be going to the nationals, i hope!

 

[Nanu57v]

Awesome about the competition!!! Good luck!

I'm not up to much, same old same old. I'm 31 weeks now...feeling kind of huganic. This is my last week watching one of the boys I watch, and the other one I"ll keep watching until June 15ish.
