I have it so good living with my parents... I honestly pay for almost nothing, except for my gas and my car and then stuff that I want. When I do finally move out of here, it will probably be a huge wake up call, haha.
Arrgh. My FI is so freaking irritating sometimes. I've asked him to do ONE THING. Find out what I need to get for his family for WP gifts (FSIL and her H and FBIL). After weeks of me nagging him to talk to his mom about it he FINALLY did and came back with...."Mum says we don't need to get them anything. We don't give gifts to the WP in this country."
Well good for you. We're not getting married in that country. We're getting married in this country. How can an ENTIRE family be so hard to shop for?!? So now I'm google searching "gifts for hard to buy for people".
Have you ever moved out before, angel? I have liked my temporary stay here again but I will like having my own bed back. And not worrying about waking 4 other people up every time I go pee in the middle of the night.

I've lived in dorms and apartments for college, but then moved back every summer and then for good once I started online school. It's going to be hard for me to leave, I get very attached to places, almost as much as to people. My bedroom is where I feel the safest in the world.
I understand that Angel - I freaking love my bedroom. It's the most perfect shade of green and it has my pretty tree. And the laminate flooring is a nice light color - and the bed and nightstands are similar and it's very warm and cozy. And I have two little round red lamps.
I understand that, angel. It was weird when my parents converted my childhood bedroom to something different. So while I'm here, our dining room is my makeshift bedroom lol.

I sometimes miss living at home even though my family drove me up the wall. They're a nice brand of nutty though.
And living with H for several years didn't put a stop to the store thing. My office was about 10 minutes from the parents' and I loved when she'd swing by with a bag of groceries.
This reminds me of the card I got her last night:

She still does it to this day. I love getting random things in the mail and sometimes even little Walmart or grocery store gift cards because she'll think of me when she's out shopping but can't drop stuff off in person anymore.
She also called a while ago and then called again about 15 minutes after we hung up just because she wanted to say she loves and misses us. She make me laugh.

Ha, I've told my parents that when I leave, my bedroom is to stay as is, in case I ever need it again, for any reason. I think they agreed... I hope, haha.
Hahah yeah I wish they could have kept it the same but the house isn't big enough for a whole room to go to waste. Right now it has boxes full of wedding crap.
I just realized I didn't even shower tonight and my hair needs to be washed pretty badly. I have no energy to do it now though so I guess I'm going to work looking like a slob. I'm going in an hour later than normal bc the dad's work schedule changed this week, which means I have to be there til almost 8. Shoot me now. Even if I wasn't upset, that would be awful. The girls get fussier as the day goes on.
ETA - Just noticed how close to silver I am. Maybe I'll hit it over the weekend.

It is hard.. right now I do have Mondays off, but if I drop the Friday job, I'd probably have to get another job for either Monday or Friday. Right now, I'm really not in a position to drop it, it would have to be after the mom at my other job goes back to work. However, the mom at the Friday job told me last week that her work is trying to put her back on nights (she's a nurse), so if they do that, it's likely they wouldn't need me anymore. I need the job right now, but if it happened in a month or two, I would be okay.
Sorry, Angel. A nice, hot shower might do you some good though, if you can muster up the energy somehow.
I was just looking at your post count right before you mentioned it. Jealous. How lame is it that I'm excited to get to 500? It only took a couple of years. Lol.

Haha it took me awhile to get to 200 because I mostly just posted on my local board... but once I came here, my post count started to rise rapidly.
K ladies, I'm gonna get to bed. I'm actually exhausted for once so if I fall asleep soon, I could get 7 or 7 1/2 hours. Better thant he last 2 nights. I can't wait to sleep in on Saturday.
