Sorry about your foot VS - - hope it feels all better soon! hug


I missed that sweet Bumble deal yesterday... saw it in the morning and was going to come back to it and bam... totally forgot. I was making homemade chicken a la king last night and got pretty swept up into it Blush

Thought you ladies might be interested in this btw: http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/20...al-drinks/

Dh still makes me coffee every morning, ever since my birthday in September bounce and he's starting to get creative now hehe Maybeeee... this makes up for the fact that he gave me a set of power saws for our 13th anni the other day? Yes, the kind you saw wood with! shake head

We did have indian food for lunch (my first time ever) and we saw the muppets together in the evening... which was strangely romantic. We left singing "Manamana" and had a candle lit pizza dinner at pizza luce sooo... I guess maybe i'll keep him Wink

Quote from ayaspiralout :
I got two Naked 2's, I figured I better buy now and decide later what to do with them. I REALLY want to keep one and give the other to my sis for her birthday but I might sell them both and use the money to buy it when they are at Sephora...dang it....
You know, I was kind of disappointed with the metal tin! I looved the velvet! It felt more luxurious and I felt like it snapped back weird.
Quote from IceyNiki :
Flames!!! I hope they pinpoint what is going on with you or at least can guide you how to manage without any further issues.
Thank you, me too. I have a cardiologist thing tomorrow - excited to go. And seriously this thing only acts up at work.

When I go into my manager's office, I can feel that I can't breathe and my throat is closing up too, with tension, then sometimes heart palpitations.

Quote from PordaPoddy :
They all covered it. Sights and sounds was important when I was trying to cut my anxiety levels (threat level orange panic attacker here) - those clear spaces keep your mind clear and quiet is so calming. I'm glad you've got the ball rolling on this thing .... you'll have it figured out soon Comfort
I think so... you're never giving your auditory senses a "down time". When we were living in R'side, the constant traffic noise out the window really got to DH (blood pressure) ... so much so that I think that was the largest contributor to our move.

Oh yes! The last TV we watch b4 bed must be comedy of some sort. Although, admittedly I had to back off from the Daily Show w/ John Stewart, the political satire was too depressing for me for a while!
Yes, traffic can be very disturbing. I've been cleaning my room and still, I don't see a real difference. And I have 4 boxes of stuff packed away! I can't wait to get everything all calmed and pretty and just not so cluttered! I never considered that my senses needed down time, either.

Quote from longislandgirl :
You are right and I felt it last time they had SRCs too hence this time i have just 10-12, one is of $50 but that is unused too laugh out loud I guess I am tired of collecting little things I do not want. I might just go to store and buy a bunch of cute panties for myself just to get rid those those SRCslaugh out loud
I feel the same way! Sometimes, it feels nice to pass up a freebie lotion :p
I still haven't spent my $50 yet!! I have been so busy with non-shopping things that all the ruffle scarves are pretty much out and I bought/needed 2 sweaters!

Quote from GoHeels :
My DH watched soaps, when I met him. He was on 2nd shift. If I remember correctly, you could watch once a year & keep up with them. laugh out loud

I haven't spent my SRCs or Sephora GCs yet either. I've been concentrating on getting my Christmas shopping done first. I'm almost done with that though. I guess it's time to check VS & Sephora out for something for me, me, me. Evillaugh
I should probably just cut it down to two a week! Yeah, pretty much watching one or two a month, you can get the gist, but it's getting juicy!!! Some of my favorite characters/actors are leaving and I'd like to see how they make them exit.

Random questions...

What type of toothpaste do you use? Do you use any drugstore brand body wash?

I am not your SS. I get tired of using the same products and am looking for recommendations. (I have three toothpastes open at a time just so I will not get bored and throw them away before I have finished the containter.)

Hey ladies - I have a question. On a return with no receipt to VS, is it the lowest price for the last 30 days or the price it is that day in store? Never returned anything with no receipt before, so I was curious. Thanks Smilie

Hope you have a good day Azn and hope your appointment goes well and gives you some answers!

Wish we could rep in here. Thank you.

laugh out loud

This is the one time it would be beneficial to get a ditzy and forgetful SA laugh out loud


Ugh. The weather here is terrible today - I just want to go curl up on my couch!

Oh, Coach is having their online factory sale again, through invite only. If anyone wants anything and didn't get the invite, let me know. I'll PM you my email addy and PW for the site and you can have it.

:whee : i'm going to bake for my SS - it will go out soon after that!

we'd all better get crackin'!

awww it's ok, i :he art: the cotton panties. that's mostly all i wear too. i wish i had the stockpile last year that i have now - i would have sent you some! i bought some this year too (during a 7 for 26 panty raid)... i guess i just felt bad that i have all these new ones at home still in their packaging, and she was buying some "to replenish"... and she's the same size as me. plus she was getting nude colored ones, which i have a lot of! i guess if i didn't have an angels card i wouldn't get all these freebies either. i didn't mean to call you a sucker at all!
Yum! Your SS would loove your baked goods! I suck at baking, except for brownies out of a box...or...a cake out of a box, or banana cake that I've been making I was a kid from scratch. hehe!

Quote from annicus :
ahhhh i think i just got my SS gift!!! :wo ot2: :wo ot2:
Although a bit delayed, I love your excitement.
Quote from kurips :
i :hea rt: express more :lo l:

remember when the store ripped me off by applying the mailer coupon before applying the 40% bf discount? it really bugged me that i lost 40% of the value of the coupon, and it's a lot for $70 worth of coupons. so i emailed cs, and best case scenario i was expecting them to tell me the store was wrong and i should go back have them correct it, and i really was just looking for a documentation to show the store.

but the cs peeps were able to refund me, just be asking for the store # and transaction # in the receipt! saved me time and frustration (in case i need to argue)! i was able to get back $30!
That's so awesome!
Quote from annicus :
I don't feel I should take pics of the items here bc I'm at work and there are VS panties... :l ol: but OMG I LOVE MY GIFT!!!

my SS was azn and she sent me so many things that she knew I'd love!! I don't even know how any of this fit within the SS budget... :he art: i'll post more pics when I get home, but here is my box with cute little heart tissue paper.
Darn! Icey outed me on the Bebe heart tissue paper! I love that tissue paper! So cute!
Quote from annicus :
i packed up a medium-sized return box to vs last night! i feel so much better now that i got that out of my hair... it was stressing me out! :lo l: dbf calls me his "little hoarder".
Everyone refers to me as a hoarder, but I still deny it!!! laugh out loud
Quote from CrazyCatJade :
Feb 11, but the doc said if I haven't had her before 39 weeks they will induce labor then due to the GD and her probably being a big baby.

I'm SO ready to be done!
I didn't realize you were expecting! woot And congrats on quitting smoking. I'll try to respond to your PM later this afternoon.

Quote from annicus :

Woot That panty you thought was from the SLT line is actually from an Angels line! It's soo pretty! I didn't know where to look for wedding stuff, and I felt that was the closest to a dreamy type wedding thing I could get you!

Quote from earthdeuxbella :
New Sephora Code: IMDREAMING

choose from a deluxe sample of BE mineral veil, living proof restore mask, or Shiseido perfect rouge lipstick with any $25 purchase.
Thanks for the codes!
Quote from IceyNiki :
That's Bebe tissue paper! Someone stole me idea! Hahahaha
Bonk for outing me!
Quote from MissDaisy :
i'm sorry azn :h ug: just knowing something is wrong with your heartbeat must be stressing you out even more! i know that doing yoga helps me a lot. the classes can be expensive, but it's so worth it. i get so zen by the end, that sometimes i end up falling asleep. it's very much like meditation, because it's all about breathing too... or maybe if you can't get to a class, buy yoga videos or youtube some tutorials?

congrats! that's an awesome ss gift azn got you bounce
Quote from whitecastlesky :
Hey Azn love - if hr knows about your physical ailments and that a dr said it's stress induced and they are offering w. Comp because of that knowledge, you might want to consider speaking with a lawyer first. Just to make sure that accepting w comp would not make you ineligible to make other claims about the unhealthy work environment down the road...and to see if there are any implied acknowledgments that an employee makes in a legal sense when accepting w comp. Just make sure you understand allllll the angles :h ug:
Thanks for the tips. I felt it was fishy that they were rushing me and they actually told me I couldn't see my own specialist initially!!! Mad But I got an appointment for tomorrow. I'd rather see a cardiologist that my doc recommended than someone else through worker's comp. My coworker told me to not trust the HR here and I've asked my vendor to see if she can speak with her HR. We're pretty close, so that was nice of her and they gave me a little bit of info.

I don't have plans to sue, but many people have for stress. I'm just planning on leaving the day that the big website project I'm working on launches, and leave them with any bugs or the fallout of that.

I use Crest. Because I have dry mouth, I use Biotene as well. I alternate night and day. I'm happy with both because other toothpaste makes my teeth sensitive and since my brother is studying to be a dentist, he said that Crest/Oral B is the best on the market, so I'm loyal to a brand Smilie

Ooops! I was so excited when I saw it. Ha ha ha ha ha

I use Crest too! My favorite is the Pro-Health Night. I have 3D White Vivid and Complete, but I have not tried them yet. I am loving the Aquafresh Iso-active. It gives such a fresh feeling. My dentist told me that I need to buy a smaller toothbrush because my mouth is too small for the size I have been using.

Sensory deprivation tank! Here's one in LA [365-la.com] . I remember reading about it in psych class and some disturbing book I read a long time ago.

thanks again for the awesome gift. Smilie i did not know it was an angels panty! i guess i don't know the vs stuff as well as i thought... Coverlaugh it's so pretty!

dbf pats me on the head when he calls me his little hoarder. shake head

i hope my SS likes chocolate. i did a test run last night and the result was yummy but oh-so-chocolatey, and extremely rich! i would put a frosting to dampen the richness but i'm apprehensive about shipping anything with frosting. i love baking boxed brownies and cakes (duncan hines cakes come out soooooo moist! my fave!) but sometimes i like to try things from scratch. the key there is having a good recipe.
