Dazzled, I saw the previews and that was enough for me. She is a freakin' trainwreck of an excuse for parenting Doh

This go round, I ordered Creme Brulee, WP Creme Caramel, and Decaf French Roast (I think....still foggy on that last one and it's at the very bottom of the HUGE stack in the pantry Coverlaugh )

Quote from Dazzledby5 :
*snip*

Speaking of BS, Did anyone watch Oprah yesterday with Octomom on? I don't have a problem with the fact that that Bitch is Crazy, or that she did in vitro as a single mom, maybe not even at the 15 pregnancies or wanting one more after the first 6 but I CAN'T stand that women. She is such a liar, an excuse maker, a fraud, sooooo in-genuine that it hurts to listen to her, she may not be fame seeking but she sure is attention seeking and I DISPISE that kind of behavior in grown people! Ugh! I feel so sorry for those kids. She doesn't want to subject them to reality TV but she is all to willing to make a spectacle of herself and parade down the road with a Quad stroller and a wagon full of kids and not expect people to gawk? come really?

I would jump on, or we could just do a swap if nothing else happens.
Not an Oprah-watcher but I cannot stand the Octomom either!!! She deliberately and selfishly put those kids in the situation they are in and I can't even think about it w/o being mad!!

Yippee, anyone else for the k-cup train/swap?? I will have to do some official weighing when I get home later but if we keep the box under 13 oz. it can go first class mail and only a few bucks to send depending on location!

Because the text is in white (on a pinky background), I can't read the second line... first line I can read.

I watched a few short minutes of the Octomom. They (Oprah and Suzi) almost beat the "I wouldn't have had the 2nd set if I'd known this would happen" out of her.

Cheap meat for next week. Sutton & Dodge $2.49/lb. TQ for $1. Look for tiny packages.

Happy Saturday People! Hubby has been called to work, so I am inhaling coffee alone. I am being a good low carber and having an egg with a bit of salsa and some sausage links... but I keep thinking how good some toast would taste with it... and how instead of eggs and sausage I would really rather have cereal with my toast. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Surgical wake up -- In case I ever have anesthesia, please don't yell at me or shake me. Brewing a nice pot of coffee and baking some muffins or cookies will wake me right up.
Quote from tn_native :
WHICH products to stock up on (oldest nephew's wife is pregnant)? baby wash, baby shampoo, baby lotion, baby powder
I was sort of obsessive about my babies smelling like babies... and that included that baby lotion smell. I went through a lot of bath and lotion. Bath for, duh, their bath, usually once a day. Lotion, at least twice a day. Right after the bath, and any time they were redressed.

I have a baby powder use for you -- ever take a little one to the beach or out on the river and you can't get all the sand off their little butt or out of their diapers? Baby powder. Powder them thoroughly and it drops right off.
Quote from cathi4savings :
Just don't buy ANY baby oil if they injest it, it coats their lungs with oil and they can't breathe ,suffocate to death ,nothing can be done fo them. Just a head's up, that's not widely known.
I'm still trying to figure out how one would inhale oil. I suppose if they were to try to drink it from the bottle and then aspirate it.
Quote from ank220 :
Okay... I feel like having sauerkraut balls for some reason. Anyone have a good recipe? I don't have a standard - just tend to look one up online.
Nope, but I can recommend a restaurant that has some good ones if you are up for a trip to Minnnesota. They are kind of expensive though -- $6 for 6.

Ain't nothin' normal bout you, Ank. Sooo, is your husband a magician or is this something kinky?
Quote from getgreen09 :
where are you guys making all these recommendations?
Online, in person, where ever. I have been asked in stores. I used to use the big briefcase -- very obvious, now I have the plastic box, still pretty obvious. So, it's not unusual for someone to notice the coupons and comment or ask about them. Then the conversation goes from there and I get asked. I usually refer them to those other forums that have all those individual threads for each store. I think it's easier for them to find the stores they need. Cool . That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it.
Quote from jteef1 :
They could be diguised as coffeemakers...
Then they'd better be prepared to be poked, prodded, examined, and thoroughly used.
Quote from Dazzledby5 :
Also I have 2 collections, #1) Potentially Negative Closed acct date opened 04/10 for $90 - I have NO! idea what this is, and another is a dental bill for the kids that was missed, but it is not listed as Medical - should it be? and what can I do?
#1 Contact the creditor directly and ask them what it is. It could be something you will recognize, but the name isn't what you would think -- like a store, but the creditor is something else. It could be an error. Find out and ask for it to be removed.

#2 Call the dental office and ask them to remove it. If you paid it, there is a good chance they will.

If you have something on your credit report -- especially if it's at least a couple years old -- call and ask what exactly it is. There is a half way decent chance that they won't even have any record of it anymore. If that's the case, ask them to remove it. Don't forget to specifically ask them to remove it from each agency it's been reported to.

Hmmm.... will have to look and see if the My Little Pet Shop toys I bought qualify. THANKS

I'm crazy about sauerkraut but have never heard of sauerkraut balls will have to try them sometime. Have you ever heard of Runza's before? its a midwest fast food chain that makes a cabbage and hamburger filled bread roll. YUMM!! Also love that a local restaurant here sells pepperoni & sauerkraut pizza. The kraut really gives it a nice zing.

BTW - Who was it again mentioning their son was going to open a Restaurant a few months back? Did it go through yet and what restaurant chain was it?

Forgot was wondering does anyone know if Target has a nationwide standard for shift changes and when it might be? I stopped by my local T around 9:30 this morning to find the worst cashier selection I've ever seen. Am wanting to go back later but wondering how long I should wait for a shift change. I'd like to go sooner rather than later. Actually I'd love to go about 1 hour before a shift change so if I didn't like the selection I could just browse longer and wait to see who was coming on duty.

I have been under 4 times. Each time I wake up crying, is that normal?
Alot of people do wake up crying.. some fighting, and others just peaceful like they took a nap. Alot of it depends on what drugs they used on you, and how long the surgery was.. but some of it is just how you react to anesthesia.. We have people often who come in a know they will wake up crazy and tell us that before surgery.. Sometimes, we have actually had to knock them back out until they calm down Teehee

Quote from HDDVDTV :
Morning all meanies! Wake up. woot

I have 7 Nivea BOGO to use up today. Hate mid month expiration. Wish. Me. Luck.
I have 15 or 16.. I ordered them early last week, but because of a slow shipper and the weather, I only got them 3 days ago.. I didn't realize the bogo nivea expired before the 5.00 nivea.. Thankfully, I have a little while longer to use up the 40 nivea 5.00 coupons I ordered!

Quote from Dazzledby5 :

Maybe we should start a K-Cup train. We all get the ones we dont like put em in a flat rate box ship to the next person, they take some to try and add some for the next in line.
I had mentioned before it would be nice to trade some flavors.. I hate ordering a whole box and not knowing if I will like them.. HD was a sweeties and sent me some hazelnut she didn't like when I first got my Keurig!

Quote from thismom4deals :
I totally knew they would have to do all of the massaging....just was NOT expecting it as I was coming out of the anesthesia!! And it did not last long because the pain was so intense that I immediately nearly sat up and started pushing/smacking all of the nurses or whoever was doing it away (not out of intentional meanness, out of shear reaction to the intense pain.) That worked to get them to stop though As soon as they got the pain meds in it hurt but was bearable.

I probably would have been one of those patients you would have hated to have to deal with laugh out loud Thanks for the insight....I have always wondered if this was 'normal' or if I just got unlucky!

!
Ahh, wouldn't bother me.. I have pushed away and fought by many people.. you get used to it!

Quote from thismom4deals :
Dazzled - that is an awesome idea on the k-cup train!!! They may even end up being light enough to go first class and in that case I doubt it would cost much??

I have boxes and a ton of different k-cups right now.....and a postal scale to see what the weight would be......if anyone is seriously interested I would be willing to start it up or at least look into what the shipping cost would be!!
I would love to swap some!

e they will.

Your sausage and eggs sounds yummy to me drool I haven't had sausage links in awhile.. Those toast and cereal cravings will be gone soon! And when that scale starts moving, it will be worth it all woot

And while we would love to wake you up with muffins and coffee, that would be quite the torture since we don't let you eat or drink when you first wake up laugh out loud

I don't think there is a set schedule. at my target, they have staggered shifts.. some do 8 til 2, some 9 til 3, ans so on..just wait til after lunch time and there should be better choices Smilie

Yes, that's it's exactly, was told this by an er doc , says he has seen this more often than you would care to know. In this case I just don't need it or didn't want to chance it,so many other products, lotion etc ....
