My bf and I went to Office Depot and Walmart. It's pretty crazy at both stores because of parents and kids buying back to school stuff. What's funny is that Walmart sells the SAME stuff that Office Depot has. The only difference is that it costs a fortune at Office Depot. Walmart has a ton of the things Office Depot was selling too. Both stores are close to each other.

Yeah... I had never even thought about going to an office supplies place for school supplies.. I guess if they had a good sale that i knew about.

I drove to Outback but it was crowded for a Sunday night. Drove to Black Angus and it was even worse. So we gave up and went to IHOP and ate nice pancakes!

Yeah... Those places are usually crowded on the weekends. We stay as far away from them as we can! But we hardly ever go out for dinner, if we go out, its for lunch. MUCH less crowded!

I didn't think it would be that busy on a Sunday night.

ALEX!!! Whats shakin' mama?

Hey! Got hung up there for a bit.

I've been emailing with Michael a bit. He's very nice, and has been very helpful.

We're waiting to hear back from the dealer in Seattle, who said he was going to do a search in the area, including what is currently being built to be shipped here. But if it doesn't look like something will come soon, I think we're going to see Michael; he's the only one who said they can order one with all the criteria we want.

 

[Alex2kMommy]

I'm feeling pretty good today, just a little snuffley and slight tummyache. I got an email from my DSis today; I was just coming down with this last Thursday, the day she went to the children's museum with us. She apparently came down with it yesterday.

I am sooo glad to here that you heard back from him!! I was about to be really pissed that we referred someone to him, and he never even bothered to get back to you! EXCELLENT! I hope he can help you guys, he was awesome with us!

If you bought Italian sausage.. You are okay. But if you bought Jimmy Dean Maple sausage... You are on your own! I wouldnt worry about the cheese, i have been known to use cheddar!

I'm glad you're feeling better Alex. I'm sorry to hear your sister is sick too. It must have been something going around.

I think he said he was on vacation, which is kind of what I expected. He's been so helpful, answering our questions. I was very up-front that we had seen another dealer, so he could very well have said he didn't want to get in the middle of that, you know? But to be honest we're a little frustrated with that whole thing. I specifically asked him if we could somehow order what we wanted, and he said no. Then Michael says, "Gee, if you can't find what you want, we can order exactly what you want but it will take up to 12 weeks to arrive." WTH is with the Seattle guy???

Just chop the sausage or if it's already ground, just cook it in a pot first and drain it. Then put it into a pot with the sauce. If the mozzarella is shredded, you could still use it.

It sounds like he just wanted you to buy what he had on the lot. I know the dealership he works with is part of a huge group of dealerships that have been around for a long time, so maybe they just have better customer service. I know that we LOVED working with Micheal, and he was really nice to us. Showing us about 7 different cars, and spending hours with us, knowing that we weren't even buying that day! AND not pressuring us to buy, when we were not ready. We had gone to a KIA dealership, and the guy there was a real jerk! Basically told us that we had to buy that DAY, otherwise what we wanted wouldnt be there.. Even though he had just told us that they had just gotten 170 of that type of car in!!! Yes... 170!! Come on!! Did he remember me? The car is only in Dh's name, so I dont even know if he ever knew my name!
