RETIRED: Target chit chat

Bay area or other nor cal? Inquiring minds want to know



Thanks M2C - I just ordered a K GC with some MCR pts (btw, they only let you order 1 per acct )

Oh, and I keep containers of play doh in my diaper bag and I let the kids play with it at restaurants. They love it (partially b/c it is banned in our house ). I still have quite a bit of play doh from K (barbie/hw )

I hear ya sista I had more blood work today and set for a bone scan next week. I hope you get answers

My stupid teeth are driving me nuts. One day they are fine, another day they are so sensitive. I know I have several cavities and 2 teeth that are broken in the back. I hate dental problems. Even with insurance, there's no way I could afford to get it all fixed. It's frustrating. *sigh*

This week has flown by!!! I am so hoping for some good TQ's this weekend. Otherwise, I am pretty much unmotivated to shop anywhere. Blah.

Sorry, normally I just read, but this may actually be useful, so I'll post it. My dentist, as well as many others I'm told, participate in a plan called Pride Direct. It's basically a payment plan that doesn't require a credit check. They just divvy up the price over 6 months. It can be extended. I used it when I got 2 implants, and was over 2k after insurance. Since dental work is usually broken up over time, they allow you to set up a plan and begin paying, then add to it as you have more work done. The only charge is 2.50 per debit, and you can also make extra payments or pay off early if you like. A very useful plan, hope you consider it.

Thank you.

G'mornin' everyone... Coffee sound good???

So far, my plan to sleep in is not working. And it's not because of Mavis!!! My toddler and I are the only ones up.

non-sleeping baby = HGTV over-dose

Ank, I don't know how real this is but my MIL always says that your teeth are extra sensitive after delivery...she would always tell me not to brush my teeth and gums too hard, not to brush at all if I could avoid it :yuck:...Also try using your fingers as your brush ....

This *almost* makes me want a non-sleeping baby and cable TV to go with it

I looooooove HGTV.

So that's why I always get a big "thanks for taking the hangers off" comment.

I started doing it because it would drive me nuts when the young cashiers would scan, take the hanger off, roll the shirt into a big ball-type mess and then jam it into the bag.

Now it's just habit. I load everything else onto the belt, then take the hangers off the clothes, fold the clothes nicely with the tag easy to get to. Then the young cashiers just have to pick up the item unfolding it as they scan it, roll it into a big ball-type mess and then jam it into the bag.....

About a minute after I last posted in here I hear this screech, thump and then all of this HORRID HORRID TERRIBLE screaming/screeching/yelping....

The shampoo, conditioner, razors, and soap we will be using, the toothpaste and toothbrushes, some will probably end up donated, or Halloween treats (As a disclaimer, everything was bought in moderate quantities, it just ads up when you make multiple trips per week (and sometimes day).

Okay, this was before my HOA had a fit and I had to pack up and move things around.

Not that I think getting up and doing something is an instant cure for depression, but it helps! And so do drugs! Yay drugs!

Today, for the first time since this all started, I drove about 3 miles down the road to get dinner. I could feel it all starting again. Like a state of panic.

Why? Why only when I drive? Why all of a sudden and what do I do to help it? I tried focusing on my daughter in the back seat. I talked to her. I tried looking around, thinking of fun things, thinking of my kids. All I could do was hold it together and get my butt back home. The entire time terrified without any reason. This is horrible.

It drives me insane because not a week ago (and my entire life) I've been active, handling everything, on the go. I love people. I've never been afraid of new things, strangers, stores, groups, anything. Why all of a sudden, out of the blue, would I panic if I go to target (it happens there too), if I am at the bank, if I drive my car?

I had more blood work today and set for a bone scan next week.

Thanks!!! I have been thinking of you a lot as I know that you have had a lot of the .... We are going to do tests ... hmmm we dunno what is wrong :scratchhead:

My thyroid has become completely erratic - too high - too low - heart palpatations - etc etc etc etc oh and at the last blood draw they said I am now very anemic. I have never been anemic in my life ... I am just not the type ROFL ... I am still waiting on the results of that horrid heart test ... but I am beginning to think they are just making stuff up :/

My thoughts and prayers are with you! I hope that they tell you something useful and that you finally start feeling better! Feeling as if you have been run over by a cement truck after being rung thru the ringer DAY AFTER DAY AFTER DAY is no fun ..... am tempted to take up drinking!

Dreem - sending P&PT your way as well! Hope they help you feel like your old self soon!

Ank - I would say take the cranberry pills & garlic pills as well as drinking a ton of tea ... it will help fight off the germies! HUGS to you and hope you feel better soon!

Ella - Don't know if you are reading --- but hope you are recovering from surgery - you are in my thoughts!!!

Rachel - Hope the PG is going well!

Meesh - Hugs & snuggles to you & your kiddos!!!! Hope your DH is healing!

TN - I thought of you today as the weather was so cool and lovely ... no stifling heat ... good day to mow a lawn


HUGS HUGS HUGS to all of you!

No Co, or Northern Colorado, on the front range of the Rocky Mountains. Sorry!

I am closing soon on a house and am BROKE!!!... Does anyone remember when Target goes 75% on bedding, furniture, or rugs.. I see the housewares with the dishes have gone 50%, so I am watching some sets to go 75%.. All I have is a couch i bought 2yrs ago and a dining room set. I also bought a tv stand a couple of months ago during the last 75% off furniture run. ( I should have looked at other pieces, but I did not know this would happen).

Her diagnosis is dysthymia, so just a chronic low grade depression. Just a neither here nor there type of thing. I think she wishes it was more serious at times (more serious=more sympathy from others). Which, of course, leads to me think there's a bit of a personality disorder in there somewhere.

Gee, thanks mom for passing your craziness on to me.

In case anyone was planning for, uhm, an interesting weekend, electrical clamps on your nipples are not a smart idea.

I worry about our society.

But mostly, I laugh at it

Morning!. Gathering up my coupons....
