Happy Tuesday

brittany634 · December 2012

I feel well rested, I went to bed early

Now to tackle the house tonight, it's kind of gotten messy, if only all the presents fit under the tree, is this a sign I shop too much? lol

How was everyone elses night? I need a yummy recipe for ground beef tonight.

... did not get a snow day again ... *stomps foot with rage

We have a heavy snowfall going on now, but it didn't start until after 7, too late to make the call... And my crappy car frosted up on the inside on the way to work, so I almost went off the road.

It's a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day ...

(I'm also wondering what to do with my ground beef for supper)

ETA: Edie, that looks awesome! I'd come over, but it's a helluva commute!

brittany634 · December 2012

That does sound yummy, now to figure out what to do with our ground beef jenny!

misssunshine17 · December 2012

Sorry no snow day, Jenny! My mom had one yesterday (I live in Maine) and she was so excited.

I'm actually going to sub in my public high school today in the office (with my mom!) and I'm nervous. I work nights, so it's a good job to have because I can say no whenever. I only got all my paperwork done last week, so here goes...

Edie- yum! I need to go eat now

cwaggoner07 · December 2012

Edie - That looks delish!
Jenny - I would kill for even a 'too cold' day.
Miss Sunshine - That sounds like a sweet gig!

Last night we had our family Christmas, and now I know why H wanted to do it so early... we have tickets to see the musical Jekyll and Hyde tonight! He also bought me 3 months of the bootcamp I love but had to unenroll last year because I didn't think we could afford it. He really wants me to get back into it since I talk about missing it ALL the time. He even worked out a deal with my trainer.

I bought him some new running shoes, a Pop Phone, and Fresh Balls. If you remember correctly, he specifically asked for Fresh Balls.

jennylee813 · December 2012

Swag, we almost had a too cold day last year. we hit -43 C, and they start closing schools at -45. So close!

Edie, I live in northern Canada, in Labrador (part of Newfoundland and Labrador). There's about 7500 people in town, and it's one of the largest towns in this part of the province. We moved here last year from the island. I grew up on the most easterly point in North America.

Miss Sunshine, working in a school office is pretty cool. I have an aunt and cousin who've done it for years. If you don't mind kids, it's always busy and a fun place to be. My aunt used to put a rotary phone on the desk for kids who always wanted to phone home. If they could figure it out, they could make the call!

Obviously, pre cell phone days!

Christmas Puppies!

jennylee813 · December 2012

Those are some seriously festive puppies, Brit! Awesome!

brittany634 · December 2012

The Jack Russel had a fit, she donkey kicked them off her back legs after this picture, it was SO funny! the bigger one was just like whatever, i'm getting attention, he is very needy!

[QUOTE]I need to decide what to cook for dinner and I want to do something with heavy cream since I can't cook that with my H at home. I bought a couple of chicken breasts last night so it will be chicken and cream something.

</div><div>I've been up since 5am. I forgot how needy babies are. Especially of the kitten variety. Poor tiny one has some sort of cold. It's just in her nose not her lungs but I feel so badly for her. We've got an appt. this afternoon so we should have meds soon enough.</div>

tlc35 · December 2012

Hi ladies. I went to sleep early too. Tomorrow I am picking up my sister at the airport and then we are heading to the hospital where my Dad is having surgery. He is having his prostate out because of prostate cancer. I'm feeling a bit anxious about it. Everyone keep him in your TP please.

dtbluv · December 2012

Aaw, poor kitten. The baby (human) I watch has a cold too, but it just seems to amp her up until she crashes and sleeps for 5 hours.

For the ground beef, do you like greek-ish food? I make meatballs with spinach and feta and artichoke hearts, then put them in warm pitas with tzatziki sauce, and I love it.

Also, a quick question. Has anyone ever used vistaprint to make a photobook? Is it decent quality? I want to make a friend a little scrapbook type thing, but I don't want to drag out all my scrapbook stuff. Plus I'm horrible about actually finishing scrapbooks.

cwaggoner07 · December 2012

tlc - t&p's for your dad.

Is anyone else following Modern Seinfeld on Twitter? My life is so full of joy right now.

B2Z728 · December 2012

I think I want to make some sort of baked chicken one pot dish tonight.

Here's some recipes for ground beef. Two of them say to use ground turkey, but ground beef will work too. These recipes are almost making me want to change my mind about cooking chicken tonight.

ETA: I've decided I'm gonna make the cauliflower one tonight instead of chicken. I'm gonna jazz it up by adding black beans, possibly one other vegetable, and amp up the spices.

B2Z728 · December 2012

Brittany - Cute dogs! I hope my future great dane will let me put a Christmas sweater on him.

Swag - Have fun tonight! I hear that musical is supposed to be spectacular. All but one of H's gifts to me are a surprise. I can't wait to see what he came up with.

tlc - t&p's to your dad.

dtbluv - That greek dish sounds amazing. I often throw similar together to make greek inspired turkey burgers that are similar to that.

Start putting clothes on him when he's a baby, he'll be used to it by the time he's older :)

<div>ALL the time. Plus they allow coupon stacking.</div><div>
</div><div>My last order was around $60. but after a $10 gets you $20 groupon, free shipping over $50, a $10. off online coupon, and a site offered 25% off photobooks... I think I only spent maybe $20 for two books with a lot of pages</div>

applejambutter · December 2012

Morning,
I am late again... I just spent the morning looking up personality types, we had a meeting at work about them and now I can't stop looking.

Also I got a preview of some of our engagement pictures!
Super excited about that.

You guys are making me so hungry...

B2Z728 · December 2012

I've never seen Vistaprint books in person but I just ordered 3 of the same Shutterfly books that I made from our wedding pictures. They often run great deals. I got mine for 40% off plus I had a $10 off coupon and free shipping. I like their quality and their wide variety of styled books, though I wish the page quality was just a little bit thicker.

B2Z728 · December 2012

Applejam, we want pictures!

tlc35 · December 2012

I made a photo guest book on shutterfly and it turned out nice. I also haven't heard good things about vistaprint photobook

brittany634 · December 2012

Edie- I don't have mine back yet, I just had the blog she posted- She said in the next week i'll have them back- so i will AW then

kd.joseph · December 2012

Morning ladies!

TLC- Thoughts and Prayers coming your way lady, make sure you give us an update. {{hugs}}

I knew I was forgetting something last night I forgot to get everything prepped to get my pot roast started to cook today. Now we have nothing for dinner tonight. Grandbaby and step-daughter's flight gets in about 6:15. So I have to find something quick.

I have so much stuff to do, I've asked the boss to get off early, but I just know my CW will screw it up somehow.

So Cute!!!

applejambutter · December 2012

I do!

applejambutter · December 2012

I shouldn't have made them so small..

LesPaul · December 2012

tlc - T&P to your Dad and all your family today. I hope his surgery goes well.

Charlie! He's so festive.

I feel like crap today. DH and I are having a communication breakdown and it's frustrating. Neither of us are getting our message across, and it's causing unnecessary friction. Ugh.

Very Cute!!!! alot of my favorites of our engagements are when we aren't looking at the camera but at each other, our photographer was AMAZING and really captured raw emotion in our pictures :)

B2Z728 · December 2012

Edie, I've been AWing over on Recap and Withdrawal. If you look at any thread that Puppetrick has started, they're AW photo threads that are a lot of fun. Even Stage, who I've never seen a picture of till now has started posting there. I'm about to post to Puppetrick's most recent one of walking down the aisle pictures.

I'll give some props to my photographer and show you our preview photos he posted a few days after the wedding.
