Anyone still around?

aMrsin09

I know it's a long shot, but for some reason I got up super early, DH has left for work and now I'm super bored...

I'm here.. it's almost 3am. I took a bit of a nap ealier so I'm wide awake.

Heya aMrs, how are you going?

 

I'm here on and off- so very tired after a friend's party last night, and back to work tomorrow, sigh!

aMrsin09

3 AM?!  I clearly need to get a better grasp on the time zone calculations ;-)

Play, I haven't been on a lot in the past month (internet issues) but are you newish here?

If so, the standard questions apply...do you have pets, how long have you and FI been together, etc etc. ;-)

Sun, I was exausted yesterday.  We did the Christmas Marketsi n Nice and Cannes.  We ended up walking about 8 miles total. 

H got a new winter coat and I got new boots.  The tennis shoes were painting a "tourist" bullseye on me.

But I was so proud of H.  He realized that his current coat wasn't working and decided to buy a new one all on his own.  I'm proud becuase if something doesn't have holes, he considers it "clothing"  His last coat was 22 years old.  Hmmm, lets guess why it doesn't fit so well anymore.

I had another account awhile back But I had to make a new one(this one) due to not remembering the other password and no longer having that email. I lurked for a almost a year. I made this account in Nov. I post once in a while. 
 
FI's drinking a beer and it's STRONG and stinks and is making my eyes water.
Anyway. No pets. We've been together a year and a half. The date is Oct. 15, 2011. I can finialy say "next year!"
We re-connected via internet, only to find out we knew eachother through my sister and BIL, his parents.

OK I'm boring.. You can ask I'll answer. What time is it where you are? I'm usually up until 2-3.. but I'm pretty much wide awake right now.

aMrsin09

What kind of beer is FI drinking?

It's 9:08 AM here and raining.  It's supposed to snow, so I really need to get to the store.  There is not a speck of food in this house, but it's rainy and cold and just generally icky out.

Congrats on next year.  i don't how how people do such long engagements.  I lost my mind and we were only engaged for 16 months.

Oh, I'm sure the Christmas markets would have been fantastic and worth the walking, though! What sort of boots did you get?

 

and haha @ your H's jacket situation. I know some people like that, although thankfully not my H. I have, however, been trying to convince him to get a haircut for the past month to no avail. The last time he had his haircut was just before the wedding in September. So, since we met with you, he hasn't had it cut- although I did insist on chopping off some of it myself  because it was just too long (which was highly amusing as I have zero hairdressing skills whatsoever, so I just chopped it so it was less long at the back, thus resulting in big bowl cut, haha). 

 

I had been planning on booking us both in today, but we're far too hungover and exhausted after the party last night to do so. Next weekend will have to suffice.

**Mutley**

I am up.   
We got a puppy yesterday.  DH took duty last night, so tonight is my night. 

Sounds like my DH in regards to clothes.  I just buy him new things and put them in his closet.

playtntsbpg30

That's the weird thing, he's only drinking Coors light. it's in a can and was outside in the freezing cold. It's to snow here too.

I'm going crazy with the long waiting but it's worth it. We're no where near ready to be married yet. We are but not financially. We have 4 months to get things situated. That's another story. Waiting so long also puts a damper on when you can book things. Just my luck I can't book our venue until the year and half mark. Which works out in the end but still. 
9am. Where are you at? 
FI's dad is traveling overseas right now he's in Africa and he said it's 8 hrs ahead of us. So that is very weird and different for us.

aMrsin09

Sun, thankfully H's job requires short hair.

And I think H is realizing he married the fashion police.  When you tell me you have "plenty of clothes at your sisters house" and then show me 15+ yr old concert and bike rally t-shirts...no, you don't have ANY clothes at your sisters.  This is going to be a challenge.

Mutley, pics of the new puppY?  What kind is he/she?

aMrsin09

Play, I'm curently in Antibes France while H finishes out his work contract.  We'll then be moving to Queensland Australia permanently.

**Mutley**

Good luck with the clothes situation.  Many of his clothes got 'lost' during our move.  What a shame!

His name is Klaus for being born a bit before Christmas and supposedly having some German Shepherd mixed in.  We aren't actually sure of what he is.  He looks mostly lab.

playtntsbpg30

amrs-o wow France that's neat!! I bet you're excited to move and stay put though.
You n Sun-are close to the same time zone then I asume? I'm real bad with time zones out of the us.

Sun- I love the dog I agree he looks like mostly lab. soooooo cuuutttteeeeee!!! heehe

aMrsin09

Klaus is too adorable!  WANT!  I miss the pitter patter of four little paws around the house :-(

The clothes...it's amazing how badley a washing machine can destroy old clothing.  H sent home his "good clothes" with me after one of our trips.  I have never before prayed for the airlines to lose my luggage.

**Mutley**

Haha!  Laundry machines are nasty beasts. 

I just love him.  Zoe, our original mutley, thinks he is her personal play thing... but of the stuffed variety.
(Would it help you want less if I said that he has diarrhea from switching over his food?)

thesuninherhead

Play, that wasn't me with the dog- I presume you meant mutley. Although I do second your comment that he is super cute!

 

And right now it's almost 7pm on Monday. So I'm a fair while ahead of France! 

aMrsin09

Sun, we only have 5 more months here.  Then we'll be in the same time zone.

Now that we live together, H is realizing my addiction to the Knot. He is getting a kick out of some of the threads.  Yesterday I kept hearing "Hell even I know that one"

playtntsbpg30

sorry Sun.. Yes I got you's mixed up with the dog. But thought maybe you were around the same time. LOL.. that's my sign I need to get to bed. I am tired but I don't feel tired enough to sleep. 10 til 4am.
Keeping my fingers crossed for good news to come the first full week of the new year.
This is good night ladies. Enjoy the puppy!
Hope the clothing situation gets better and that he gets a hair cut soon.
Hope the hangover is gone by morning when you are ready to go back to work.
Good Morning to some and good night to others. I'm getting out of here..

aMrsin09

Sleep well Play.

I'm kind of leaving too.  10 AM, time to get going on the housework/grocery shopping.
