    :D

    That's awesome!

    Does anyone leave their Christmas lights up year round?

    I do not decorate at all, ever, for anything, and I love it :tongue:

    There is one set of lights we decided to keep up year round. Just multi-coloured fairy lights.

    I have neighbors who leave white lights all year. I would bet today they add the red for Valentines Day. Then they add Green for St. Patrick. Then yellow and orange for Cinco de Mayo. Then red and blue for the whole summer (Memorial, Flag, Independence and Labor Days) then orange and purple for Halloween, then only orange for Thanksgiving. Then all the colors for Christmas.

    Here among friends I will say that I don't believe That's Not Fair Girl didn't know that was my soup mug. I have let her use it too many times for that. I even let her use it yesterday, but made it known and understood that I want it back. And said so in front of other people. I do believe that she talked herself into believing that I did not want it anymore because she's like that.
    She's the person whose house got foreclosed because she buys purses and toys for her grandkids instead of paying the mortgage, who complains about her diabetic neuropathy while eating more carbs in a meal than she should have in day and who complained when I got a promotion because she's been here longer. I work 4x as hard as she does, but it's not fair that she did not get my job. I want to like her, but she makes it very very hard.

    She probably thought I would just go buy another mug, but Tamara gave me that one. I may go buy her one of her own, but she's not keeping that one.

    Ugh I hope I am not coming down with anything. I have felt a pressure in my head for half of the day.

    Tonight I was going to eat a pizza but ended up just eating some cheesy crackers I bought at Aldis & a whole bag of rice cakes (fit into my overall calories for the week) & some Aldis knockoff Laughing Cow cheese wedges. I have to recommend these since they're only 25 calories & probably cheaper than buying Laughing Cow.

    I've had a poorly baby all day who's just wanted to be cuddled and sleep in my arms. Very unlike her! And as I sit in the dark in the kids' room, it sounds like Andrew is coming down with it too. At least it's not an office day tomorrow!

    Zinc up!!!

    ETA: I like the Aldi brand cheese wedges better than laughing cow. They seem creamier to me.

    Confession:

    I forgot to order the cake... I went to the local grocery and asked if they would add yellow roses to the stock vanilla. She smoothed the frosting and DID THAT and didn’t charge extra. I tipped her $10.

    Wow that was really nice of her! The cake looks beautiful, she did a great job! And you did a great job, they look like they enjoyed themselves.

    It was lovely and I'm sure your parents appreciated it so much. 50 is impressive!

    Andrew! did catch it and now I've got it. It seems to be a short lived but fierce cold. I have an unreal pressure in my head! Poor Andrew didn't eat a bite of his tea despite it being his birthday tea at Grandma's. The child must have felt terrible to turn down cake. Ellie is over the worst of it so hopefully he will be tomorrow and I will be by Tuesday (when I'm at work).

    Bummer! Feeling better! To all of you!

    You are a much nicer soul about that than I.

    It's about my kid, not That's Not Fair Girl. TNFG can step on a Lego barefoot. My kid wants me to get the mug back by any means necessary.

    Bwahaha...I might. She obviously doesn't care if it's used

    Laziness confession:
    I just dropped a potato chunk out of my breakfast and it rolled way under my desk.
    Office dog will be here in 40 or so minutes. She will think it is a nice surprise.
  • Posts: 1,421 Member
    I did that in my own kitchen last week and yelled for the dog because I didn't want to pick it up. She was grateful.
