No registry stalking for me!

I've found the perfect solution for me to not stalk my registry:  I promised my almost 90 year old Grandma I wouldn't :)  She went through this crazy long process in order to get me a gift (I wrote about it in my blog) which was so incredibly sweet and she doesn't want it ruined by me checking the list.

So I'm not going to.  I don't think I would have had the willpower before but I can't break a promise to my grandma.  Although I think I might put someone else in charge of watching it besides my mom because she was already lecturing me on how we don't have enough stuff.  Sorry mom, we don't have a house so I'm not going to register for a bunch of stuff just to give people something to buy.

So what else is everyone up to this afternoon?  It's incredibly slow here at work and our database went down so I can't get anything done!

    Lol - maybe I should have promised my grandma. FMIL is checking the registries and will tell me if items should be added and I had my sister go in and modify a few items, so, now I have no excuse to stalk. Good luck!! PS - also super bored and this rain is making me sleepy...

    Agree with the weather.  It's so gloomy out :(  Although it's better than snow so I'll take it.  I am so over winter and want spring to be here already.

    Awe, a promise to your grandma is a very sweet idea.

    As for my daily grind.. i've been cleaning to the sounds of the 90's channel on comcast. :)

    ::gasp:: the innocent me hasn't even thought of registry stalking! I can't believe I didn't think about this earlier! LOL

    But now that the idea is out there, I don't know how long I can hold off...

    I've peeked a couple of times but I think it's too soon for people to start buying anything. I like the idea of putting someone in charge of letting me know if we need to add, maybe that will keep me from sneaking. :)

    I've attempted to stalk, but of course no one has bought anything yet :(  shower invites for my first shower go out this week though!  So maybe there will be something to see very soon.  I also am kind of worried that we won't have enough stuff so I'll really need to keep an eye on things.
