RETIRED: Target chit chat

We live 5 minutes from the hospital where I had lilB. DH said he would carry me there if he had too. I stayed at the hospital two days and the during the second night and all morning it had snowed 13" to 15" and it was still snowing like crazy the news was talking about all kinds of crazy stuff, lots of crashes, and advising that people should stay home and not drive anywhere. All the nurses were so worried we had to drive in the blizzard, every one that came in was worried. We were like, 'hey we just have to drive around the corner and down the street, don't worry. We live less than 5 minutes' I think it takes longer to get in the car, buckle up, drive over, and find parking than it does to just walk over.

I would go over the rules about not hiding in places like that with her again.

My 7 yr old hates cleaning her room and tells me I am a mean mean mom when she has to clean or do chores. As if that wasn't bad enough she taught lilB how to say 'mean, mean, mom!' so now even my 18 month old who is just learning to talk is saying mean mom to me. And she just laughs histerically when he says it.


I see you have posted lately so no baby on the 13th. I was just reading hoping to have a Friday the 13th birthday buddy. I was born on Friday the 13th and everytime my birthday was actually on the 13th I would have a scary dress up Friday the 13th party. Well, until I stopped having birthday parties around 17 yrs old when I moved out on my own. I guess I didn't have that many of them but they are the ones I remember most easily.



Ya Ank, who knows when you will be able to sleep. Hopefully you will get some sleep and be ready to have Mavis tomorrow, after your shopping of course. Got to burn up your coupons.

DH does have a problem with my couponing. He thinks I spend way to much time reading the T thread and getting all the coupons/organizing and shopping. He sure likes it all after a sale though. He does see the benifit to it all but he get's grouchy when it's time to have a sale and I have to much to fit in on our shelves. I wish my DH or I knew how to do that software!!!!!!!!!

I have had a rough week-
I got home from vacation on Wednesday and the downstairs neighbor in my duplex had gotten a pit-bull. Attempted to bite my husband as we had to walk by it from our vehicle to our door. Not happy, and slumlord merely says he will be here in a week to 'look at the situation'. And he wonders where the rent check is Thankfully I'm on a month-to-month lease. Now if only there was something else available in town. Will likely be homeless, but this dog scares me. I haven't been to Target as the deals aren't that good anymore, and I'm scared to go out my door.

I haven't been to Target as the deals aren't that good anymore,

is the dog outside and unleashed or contained in a fence? If not, you can call animal control and they will take care of it by giving the owners a citation or removing the animal.

Are you kidding???? With the free socks and other clothes, practically free bath fixtures, free chef boyardee, other food pennies on the dollar? Not to mention free postit notes and free pens.

As for that dog, I might find a way to make him silently disappear.

So, I think 32+ jars of Skippy later I had to spend yesterday afternoon building myself a new shelf to store it on....well, that and all the Chef and everything else I've been accumulating Turned out nice though. I have the best dh ever!

Wow... nice haul!! I didn't think about Hy-Vee's 1 day sale, until it was too late.

Did you use the MQ in the Target thread and get 16 loaves of free bread with the PB? Unless a person had a big freezer, that probably would be a difficult thing to store.

Nice shopping trip to K and T...Kids are taking a nap, after they get up we r going to the mall and then dinner...T was a zoo, BTS section was crazy...

Can someone please PM me about how to do K-Mart?

I was at your store early this morning. It was crazy at 9am! Hit 3 Ts today, two of the super! I that produce Q!

Ank - I love that you're shopping!!!

I so could've shopped more! LOL! (well, still could, but I dont' think DH will let me out any more tonight!)

Hard to do with cranky toddler/whiny teen - and a cranky hubby to boot! DH has been out of sorts all day. I think he's wishing we'd had the baby already. He's even asked me if I make it til my appt. on monday if I think they'll want to schedule me for an induction.

I'm getting stuffy again - dernded allergies.

Anyways - I basically did a bunch of running around with my oldest DD and hit up some Krogers. Now... just hanging out and trying not to eat up the whole pantry.
