I have two.
1. MIL volunteers in a resale shop. The other day she brought over some clothes and some little stuffed animals "they threw in for free." The stuffed animals landed in a donation bag before the kids even saw.
2. I found a grey hair. Not on my head.
Re: Confessions?
I told him I only took the tape off the box and didn't look inside.
But now I just want to binge watch those three seasons before Christmas.
I'm going to the OBGYN tomorrow. Part of me hopes I'll discover that I'm miraculously pregnant. The other part of me knows it isn't possible since I haven't even seen DH in over a month.
Also, I may not do any maintenance downstairs before said appointment. Too much work.
I took a vacation day yesterday. With all intentions of turning that into my "get my home biz off the ground" day.
What actually happened. Lounged in my PJs, binging on Judge Judy and People's Court episodes on my DVR. Had a grilled cheese and creamy tomato soup for lunch. Even my dog didn't get off the couch to follow me and stalk me while I was in the kitchen. Pretty lazy day for both of us!
Arbitraging textbooks on Amazon. Basically, buying them from Amazon sellers...or other websites that specialize in textbooks...and then trading them back in to Amazon for a profit. Amazon has a trade-in program for textbooks, CDs, and DVDs. That is one of their sideline businesses. They sell those items to wholesalers/distributors.
The only suck thing is their trade-in program pays in Amazon credits. Not money. But Amazon sells all kinds of gift cards that I can use myself or flip for cash to get 90-95 cents on the dollar.
I keep kicking myself because I bought software awhile ago that makes the process really easy. The concept is really easy. I've read through most, but not all of the materials. Played with the software. But haven't STARTED yet. Ugh. My procrastination knows no bounds.
I'll update you all on how I'm doing with it, as soon as I kick myself in the butt hard enough, lol!
I took a day off yesterday too. Did literally nothing. I was hung over and it took me 3 hours to get the motivation to make macaroni and cheese since we didn't have any Kraft boxes. When H got home at like 5, that's all I had done. He gave me the motivation to make dinner and our lunches for today, thankfully.
What I should have done - made lots of cookie dough, clean the bar, do laundry, work out.
There is another woman here who is way too sweet. She is either secretly plotting to kill all of us, or...not, there's no or. I don't like her, she makes me suspicious. I'm probably horrible.
Also, I got called out for my time on social media. I calmly handed over my tracking sheets which I took from a 42% or lower on each tracked level when i received these cases, to 100% on all 4 tracked levels ( in 4 weeks, I started on the 16th and didn't get my tracking materials until a week later) and showed my case status. The office manager looked at me and mumbled, "Don't get caught next time." I am too old to be treated like a child anymore. If my job is completed and is hitting all of the marks you've set, just leave me alone. I'm am turning into a mean old woman.
My two guilty tv pleasures are court shows and 90-Day Fiance.
And, yes! The court shows don't appear online. Or on Hulu or any of that stuff. At least they didn't the last time I checked. Everything else I watch, I could either find or live without. So I basically pay $100/month on cable and DVR services JUST to watch my court shows. Irritating.
I like the law and find much of it fascinating. In my younger days, I seriously contemplated going to law school. And totally would have!...if it hadn't been for, you know...the immense amount of time and money involved, lol.
I'm doing, what was successful before yesterday, a gluten free diet. But there was a bag of chocolate chip cookies in the basket just calling my name. It's my weakness. After eating 2 and then 3.... I just looked at the bag and said fuck it, and ate the entire bag to clear away all evidence. But to balance it out, I skipped dinner. That was my dinner.
That makes perfect sense to me. If you had spread the cookies out, that would have been "cheating" multiple times. This way, you only cheated on your gluten-free diet once
I think I would legitimately have become a lawyer if I hadn't been in school at the very worst possible time to do that. Recession plus a huuuuuge glut of law school grads--I decided to spend energy elsewhere.
(Is it more graphic or less graphic than Saga? I bought that for my niece last Christmas and decided that since she's a step-niece, I didn't need to get my sister in that much trouble w/ niece's mom, so I kept it for myself
The graphic novel I bought isn't as graphic as the Deadpool movie, so it should be OK for a 13-year-old.
41, still haven't "changed my mind".
I had cookies again for breakfast because I'm mopey that DH has the rest of the week off and I have to work today and tomorrow.
Also - those cookies were probably made with eggs, right? Eggs = protein = healthy.
What you had right there - regardless of the fact that they contained gluten - was technically a healthy snack.
I think it's starting. I have been a regular Annie since my period started at 13. It comes EVERY month.
Like clockwork.
This month. 4 Days late and counting.
Boo....Old age.
