It’s almost time for another check from Ebates and I’ll have a nice chunk yet again, around $35. Yay for extra cash, especially for doing nothing but clicking a link before I shop online.
And yeah, I know.. shut up already. But it rocks and I just have to say so!

I hate to admit this, but there are certain bloggers/online personalities that I try to avoid because they either remind me of my past self or of other aspects that I don’t enjoy about myself. I don’t like them because of that and really can’t get past that. It doesn’t matter how nice they may be online or in person.
But at least I can admit it and know that I’m a biotch, eh?
I forgot to mention …
First week back on WW, -4 lbs. Not bad. Not enough to please me, but it’ll do for now. I’ll never lose weight as quickly as I did after surgery and that’s a shitter to deal with.

My child grabbed her sippy, ran to her room, shut the door, climbed into her crib and fell asleep without any help from me or my asking her to for that matter. Terrible two’s? I think not. She’s really been awesome lately and getting so friggin smart and talkative.. like putting words together and speaking in a language we understand. As much I hate blogs where Mommies go on and on about their amazing children.. today I’ll say she rocks!
Because she does.
but I’ll have more $$ in my pockets!
We did a diaper run at Target this afternoon along with other junk that somehow flies into the cart. eeps. It came to around $72 and some change, yet somehow we don’t think we were actually charged for it. I used a $5 giftcard that I had from a previous sale and after that went through the gal’s drawer opened, my credit card spit out of the machine and she was like
“Oh, here you go! It must have went through already”.
Yet the screen said card read error.. so … I checked the receipt and sure enough, there’s nothing on there about VISA being the form of payment. I didn’t sign anything and there are no account numbers on the receipt of any kind. I asked if she was absolutely sure but she hurried us through and went on to the next customer. I’m confused, but I’m sure as heck not going back.
“Hey, please charge me again!! I love blowing money on diapers!!”
No sir, I’m leaving it be. If it goes through fine. But the available balance on that card hasn’t changed, so me thinks it’s not going to. I’d be thrilled. Sure, it’s horrible. But I’ve spent a gazillion dollars at Target since we moved here. I go at least once a week and spend around $70 + each time. I tried to ask while I was there and was ignored. So if she gets in trouble, then maybe that will teach her a lesson in customer service?!
So that made my day. Maybe I’ll go ahead and get Aubree a couple of things from Gymboree before the sale ends after all with the $$ saved this week. I love, love, love the new line. Heck, there’s very few things I don’t like in any line they come out with. I’ll go to my grave exclaiming how much I love them, the clothes, the quality, the sales .. everything.:)
I baked a pie! Who’s coming over for some?!
The hubby isn’t fond of rhubarb, and boy am I thankful for that! It’s so darn good I could just cry. I haven’t had any in years… oh so many years. I’m so glad that I didn’t waste my time with splenda and instead used good old sugar.. because really, who cares! Pie is supposed to be bad for ya! He’ll have to roll me to the bedroom to sleep tonight.
I’m so excited I could pee.
I’m going to try my best to make it to Toys R Us later to pick up a toy for Aubree. They have Scamps for 50% off w/ coupon. I’ve secretly wanted one.. tee hee – I’m lame. So this is a good excuse. Plus she loves ‘Goggies” lately. I think she’ll dig it.
I have plans to get my arse up early and be at the nail salon before they open tomorrow. There’s always a bunch of chicks waiting outside and I don’t want to be waiting for-freakin-ever to get my feet did. I need a pedicure and my nails need filling as it’s been 3 weeks. Yikes. I also need to get them cut down as I’m always hurting myself, stabbing the children, poking the hubby in places he’d rather not be poked with sharp objects..lol It’s bad.
At some point I’d like to touch up my highlights but I’m feeling so lazy. It’s such a process and I hate doing it. But I also hate looking all root-y and blah. So.. I just wish I could break down and pay someone to do it. But I’m cheap (yes, I am in some areas) and I can’t see spending $100 when I can spend $7 and do it myself.
Oh and there’s some sleeping I’d like to do as well. Boring, eh? I’ve been really tired lately despite sleeping all night long. It never ends. *sighs*
So Happy Friday! I hope you all have a loverly weekend!
Why? Because they die and when they do it’s always one frickin day past that guarantee! Oh well. Our little black fish “momo #2″ died yesterday. Aubree kept telling me he had a ‘boo-boo’ and was kissing the side of the tank to help him. But yeah, there’s no kissing a fishy back to life. I knew this tank thing would end up being my new job. As if child rearing, and cat butt wiping wasn’t enough. Now I’m an aquarium specialist. The hubby doesn’t realize that these awesome ideas of his actually require work. He seems to think you throw them suckers in there and bam, they’re good to go. I wish it were so easy!
