Okay, I'll have Dh take pics of the outside but not everything is up.

We have a santa in a sleigh and one reindeer that bends its head down to "eat." My sister and I had an interesting convo about it the other day...

sister- those are pretty cool
me- yeah but we need to get more reindeer and make it look like it's pulling the sleigh
sister- yeah, that would be neat. Then make the first one have a red nose
me- that'd be neat but damn expensive. We'd need like 12 more of them.
sister- uh, I think there's only 8 reindeer, not 13.
me- huh?

Guess I was thinking of dwarfs, not reindeer.
But there were only 7 dwarfs! I think you need another nap! I'm really sorry about everything you've gone through. If you want there to be 12 or 13 dwarfs (or reindeer), then by golly there should be!

SOOOO...while I was at work today and my DF was watching my little monkey she got into my SS box.EEK!..she loves makeup so I am thinking she was being nosy and noticed the makeups....so I got to see what all was in my SS gift.

heartI just have to say that this is an amazing gift and I am very happy for it. It is one of the best surprise gifts I've ever gotten. Usually I have to pick out my own gifts from everyone so I never get surprised...Frown Thank you SS for making my day and Christmas! I LOVE it all! I will take pictures because I want to start using parts of it!!! Cool
I have a pretty good idea who my SS is but I will not say who until everyone receives theirs. I am still picking up things for mine...this is A LOT harder than I thought!!!!

Oh so yucky about the UTI but I am glad they got her on meds, she will be feeling better soon. The same thing happened to lilB with the high fever for almost two days, I took him in and all they could figure out was a virus.

Quote from Jpow5 :
crock-pot help

I upgraded my crock-pot and have used it twice and heart the "warm" setting, as my old one was very basic. Last night when I was putting it away, I noticed it has some whitish discoloring/film/something-going-on. There's some in the "corners" and then there's almost like a ring mark about half-way up. It kind of reminds me of when water boils down and leaves the deposits on the side of the pot. The last thing I cooked in it was soup, so that could be it. My previous one was an ivory color, so maybe I just never noticed it before, but this one is black and I can really see it and it basically doesn't look clean.

I'm having a hard time getting the gunk off. I'm going to get some Bar Keepers Friend at T today and try that. Any other suggestions? Any ideas what caused it and how to avoid it from happening? Please help save my crock-pot!
Quote from thismom4deals :
I have a solution Big Grin

Reynolds slow-cooker liners!! These are very near and dear to my heart as they were my very first stockpile item when I got married, we got our own house, and I started using coupons casually a couple years ago heart laugh out loud

But seriously, I never use the crockpot without one now....very little clean-up to worry about unless the bag leaks or breaks which is rare for me. They run about $2.xx/box and there are $1/1 q's out right now. Haven't seen any spectacular deals but they are very worth the cost IMHO.
Let me know if the bar keepers friend works, I have the same problem with mine but I don't worry about it to much because I know it is clean and I always use the Reynolds slow cooker liners too. I LOVE them, so easy. Here they are about $1.87 per package.

Quote from Dec12Girl :
PS - Green when you are not shopping/saving money/organizing coupons - and advising us ... what do you do??? You just seem to have an exceedingly vast font of knowledge from which to draw!!!!!!!!
I know right? I was wondering about something the other day while we were traveling and was going to try to post mobil to see if anyone or GG knew, but we had no service for much of our trip.

Gator - I am so sorry about the news with your hubby's job. That sux, isn't that kinda like a bait and switch. hmm.

Quote from dreemedayze :
Okay, someone has got to PM me and tell me how you are getting the sonicare coupons to go through. (the MQ's) I don't mind doing missed coupons on the TQ's but I think it'd be a stretch to do it on the MQ and the TQ. Everytime I try the cashier searches for the "flex" on the box and, when it isn't found (cause it doesn't exist), they deny the coupon. Very aggrivating.

Took the meds and took a nap. Woke up and poor Nicole got to hear me bitch and moan about everything in my life that's pissing me off at the moment. Sorry girl.
Girl you deserve a good bitch session! Get it all out and then bitch a little more. Send me a PM and bitch some more I will commiserate with you. hug

I got two on BF and they went through just fine. I have gotten two more, once was with a a guy wearing the orange vest since he had just been out getting carts and was backup. The other transaction was with a cashier that has been jediriffic in the past. It helps the MQ doesn't say item not there after the amount is entered, since most cashiers OMG when they see the amount. On BF my cashier did scroll up to make sure the sonicare price was more than the MQ. Dontknow Mostly just luck I guess. Everytime I have bought them I have placed the bag with the soncicare on the top of my cart with the rest of my purchases under it, so the top of the sonicare package it visible out of the top of the target bag. There were a few times I pointed to the package as they were looking at the coupon "the sonicare is right there, remember" but not got it for them or moved the cart closer for them to see. I always move the cart over by me and at the very end of the lane (ready to make my escape to the car) and fill it with bags as the cashier gets done filling them up. Sometimes I tell cashiers that we can look through the bags if they can't remember ringing something up (usually when a coupon beeps) but that it might hold up the line even longer than the coupons are, very rarely have they ever wanted to look.

So there is a new Shawn White TQ? The old one beeps now?
Is that right?

Has anyone used the $25 cookware TQ? Please PM me if you have heart

Ok went to the recycle bin earlier today and I have no idea of the totals # of inserts, not tuns or anything, but I am hoping there will be about 12 to 18 insert sets. So let me know if there is something you need a few of and I can check my inserts tomorrow. I haven't even looked at them since I got home. I made spagetti sauce in the crockpot today. I just brown the meat and them thow everything except the noodles in the crock on low. drool

So I am home with the lil one all day (and he was safe and unhurt) and during the 45 minutes I go to look for inserts with my friend DH and the girls put my lilB in his highchair to feed him but then they do not buckle him in and are just far enough way that when he tries to reach over to the counter to get a spoon he falls out and hits his forhead on the counter and then does a face plant onto the floor and chips his teeth. DH said he was so freaked out, he couldn't get there quick enough but he was surprised and relieved that he was not hurt that bad. thankfully we have wood floors instead of tile. He has a couple bruises on his forhead (one from the counter and one from the floor I guess) but was playing and acting like nothing was wrong, I couldn't even tell he had been crying. The chips in his teeth are tiny and tinyier very small but one is noticable if you look for it.

They are so lucky he didn't get hurt worse! Yeah, we had a discussion and they will all be more carefull. DH said the whole thing made him sick to his stomache and he got a huge headache, (I'm sure part of it was driving 10 hours straight to get the girls home in time for school) he said he had never seen anything so horrible and scary to not be able to catch his lil son falling head first to the floor.

So right before I was getting lilB into bed he was running around the house and headbutting the couches and my legs despite the little bruises on his forhead. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) crazy kid! I am just so thankfull he is okay and we are not sitting in a ER right now.

Wow, I multi quoted like 30 posts.. far to many..

Flug - great cake.. if you ever want info on starting up a cake business let me know, I started my own business almost 4 yrs ago. Lots of work, if you're allowed to work out of your home, then its not as bad. But just make sure that you check your local health dept to see if they allow it.. My didn't so I had to get a commercial kitchen. Even if you just start making them for family and friends, if word gets out to the authorities, you can get fined.. So be careful on who you make them for in the beginning. Trust that they won't say anything to someone else, that says "oh she sells them out of her home"..

My SS had a wish list. Yeah!! Hope she really wanted the item, because it's on it's way.. The company was so helpful. They wrapped it for me and shipped it out..It was really hard trying to figure something out, but when I seen the wish list, I was like Yeah!!

Dreeme - I'm so sorry for all that you have had to go through hug

Dec12 - Nice to see you post... miss you

Ank - sure hope everything gets better for you.

Gator - That totally sucks on your DH's job... I hope something works out for you.

I know I'm missing so much, will have to post again later.

*** anyone that does Kmart, does the size 01 still fit right there.

I was down in Wa. for 9 days and only hit 2 targets, one was a stc and the other one was, "have fun putting it all away". Frown

did better at Kohls..

I feel like junk. My house looks like the Target dog ran through it, tossing bags full of crap everywhere. My kitchen is a disaster. The bathroom at least is clean. I feel like I have 10lbs of snot sitting in my sinuses. We have a home visit with our son's teacher tonight. And my parents are coming in tonight for a week. Faint

So my question is - who is going to come clean my house for me? And put away all the random bags of crap? I'll even fire up the Keurig for you!

Has anyone else gotten the Folgers Vanilla Biscotti k-cups? So yummy!! I think it is my current favorite.

hug Good to see you here!

All is good in reality... frustrating and a roller coaster ride at times, but otherwise good.

I wanted to start a baking business here in TN, but the laws are ridiculous in TN. In Ohio it was easy to get a license (almost too easy) - but here, it's completely different. I have a good friend from church that recently bought a house for the express purpose of being able to run her tea business out of it - and it's relatively new house. Well, she's still had to change some things around and do upgrades! There's another lady that wanted to do a small baking and catering business and they basically told her she'd have to add on an entire second kitchen to be legal!!

I think that you can also see if there are local bakeries that will allow you to share the kitchen/equipment. I'm not sure how easy it is to find someone willing to do this if you are not already friends with someone who has a licensed kitchen access.

I do have a lady who pays me to make her cheesecakes and various party cakes - but it's not anything I advertise. I don't know if I really have the time to do it anyways, but it is something I like to do. Anyway, if you do ever go the unlicensed route - be careful. Any advertising or business cards can get the health department calling you... (and I know cuz I worked at one and they'd do that quite often to catch unlicensed folks!)

I've never sold anything on ebay so maybe I will try craigslist 1st.

Quote from Dazzledby5 :
hug I am sorry. It is tough. I have been there twice before and it is never easy under any circumstance. I am here if you need to talk.

I counldn't bring myself to have one, either time. I feared the noise, the finality of it and that all hope was then gone.
When i had my D&C they gave me the choice of staying awake or going to sleep! I of course said "knock me out"! my mom still tries to talk about it to this day and for me I have no desire to talk about it. If I hadn't had the miscarriage i wouldn't have my youngest son because i got pregnant 2 or 3 months after. I wouldn't trade him for anything in this world!!

I doped up on Sudafed, so hopefully it will kick in soon. And just after I posted my previous post, I went to check on my daughters, who were coloring at the table. My youngest had stuffed all the Pipsqueaks markers she was using into her cup and her sister's cup. Both of which were full of milk. Doh Just cannot win!

But ... hubby gets to come home early today, due to dealing with work emergencies for 3 hours at home last night (I was gone at a sales meeting, and he was supposed to be knocking down some serious cleaning). Needless to say, he got hardly anything done, which is why we're in crunch mode this morning. But like I said, he does get to come home early, so we can work together to finish everything.

OK, off to turn on some super energetic music and get it done!!!

Yesterday my sons' school took a field trip to a science museum that we always go to. There is an amazing water table there and DS's BFF slipped on some water on the floor (even when she was wearing crocs) and hit the back of her head on the floor. She cried for a minute and then stopped breathing. Their teacher had to perform CPR on her and after a minute, she started breathing again. She went to the hospital and is fine now.

Moral: If you're not already CPR certified, get certified!! You could save someone's life!
