Wave Sorry I stepped away unannounced. Had to escort my mom to a funeral. I think I've made the realization that I need a go-to funeral dress... Between DH's family and mine, we're averaging about 2 per year and I'm always scrambling around wondering "is this conservative enough???" . Frown

I am in a lot of f___ing pain. (Back home...still mobile)
Comfort I highly recommend shakes- perhaps a Shamrock shake if McDonald's is still seving those up

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Congrats on your grant.

I'm feeling very good today. I go to the dr in the moRning. I hope he says everything is fine. I think it is going well though.
I can't believe I missed your big B(*)(*)B day, congrats on the new rack Smilie .
Quote from longislandgirl :
I get most of my items shipped from Horsham, PA. Vs must have another warehouse there I guess. NJ girls might be getting it within one day i think Whee
Do not worry about exercise, enjoy new beauties Wink
Wave thanks for the swim tote description. I like that it is not a blindingly bright color and is opaque so no one can see your valuables if you take a dip in the pool. Definitely getting this one!
Quote from annicus :
FB SRC promo will go on until next week! i keep missing it too.

I love Kate Spade too. I just bought 2 of her bags last month during the private sale.
I'm trying to stick to quality instead of quantity which I used to haha - and I LOVE Kate Spade's quality and Coach.

Crazycatjade: Congrats on your wins!

Urrggh I want to buy something, but whaaaaaat? Also, why are there never movie ticket deals when I need them, I need to smarten up and stock up next time there is one. >_>
Thanks! Man, I always buy the tickets then forget. Now with a newborn, it's not going to be movie time for a long time lol.
Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I want to use my src's. VS has got to do better with shipping codes!
I'm actually having a hard time finding stuff I want. Not used to being this big and not happy. May buy a duffle bag or something. Who knows lol.
Quote from GoHeels :

I must be selfish too. Stick Out Tongue I only post deals here. I never post anything in HD. It doesn't take long for the people in HDs to kill a deal.

That's a lot to win every month.:w oot2: I rarely win anything. I get so excited, when I do. I need a Winning For Dummies tutorial from you. :lo l:

Poor baby. I hope she's doing okay now. :com fort:

I must be the only mom who is still shy at the doctor's office. I hate going, especially if it's for anything other than my usual check-up for my prescriptions. The last time I had a pap smear they messed it up. It's been about 3 years & I still haven't let them redo it. I know...... bad me.
As soon as I find a contest that is pretty easy to win I will hook you guys up in here for sure. I will PM you with something easy and non frustrating GH Smilie I hate the people in HD lol. They exploit EVERYTHING. I do too, but I like it to be able to be exploited when I find a deal lol.

DD is doing better. She is such a cool baby Smilie I have NO idea what I am going to do when I go back to work in a week and a half. That made me nauseated to type. *sigh*

Girl - GO GET YOUR PAP DONE. I skipped out on mine for years and now I am going through colposcopy procedures and biopsies all the time. I just had the damn thing done again last Wednesday. Two more biopsies, cross your fingers everything is OK again - doc still hasn't gotten back to me. Frown You need to take care of yourself!!!

Quote from red333 :
I'm so jealous of you ladies in CA that are able to stack! I don't have very many this time, but it sure would be nice to use them all together Smilie

Also, I just learned that I won a travel grant. I'm pretty nice. It's exciting that people are actually starting to recognize my work. I just hope this continues...
I am jealous too! Oh, and wtg! Congrats!!!!

Quote from Stardust42 :
EEK! That sounds scary! Hope your daughter is doing well right now. hug
And you gotta give me some tips on winning sweepstakes. ; ) The most I've won is probably a $50 Visa prepaid.
Yeah - it was the scariest time of my life! I thought I lost her Frown They did the apnea study at the hospital and everything came back OK. The Doc explained it as slow periodic breathing and a very very deep sleep combined. I have a hard time sleeping now because I keep waking to check on her. I think everything is going to be ok though Smilie


UGH! The weather here tonight is HORRIBLE. The storms they got in Dallas seem to be coming this way. I'm between NOLA and Baton Rouge. Nasty nasty rain! So sick of it!

On another note, I went to buy some new pants today as I am nowhere near my pre pregnancy size and I have to go to work in something other than sweats lol. The lady at the counter was making small talk and asked me about my daughter, when I had to go back to work, etc. I told her the reason I was shopping was because I couldn't fit in my clothes and had to go back to work and was bummed out about it. She said to me, "Ohh, I know what you mean! After I had my son I was 35 pounds lighter when it was time for me to go back to work than before I was pregnant!" I wanted to punch her between the eyes. What makes people say dumb sh*t like that? UGH!

i tried on thegorgeous push-up halter top and bikini [victoriassecret.com]today, in the spa floral print [victoriassecret.com]. it's SO CUTE!! and gives my girls a great push. unfortunately, the 34B covers so little for me that when i lean forward, i see some unmentionables... i bought the set anyway with src's, but i'm not sure i want to have any nip slips anywhere. but i really really like it... i'm wondering if i should just size up or something (maybe 34c?) to get a bit more coverage so i'm not totally busting out.

Agree about the quality. I still have the first coach bag I bough during high school. Their leather conditioner is awesome.

Try not to worry about the weight. I looked horrible after I had ds. I didnt even feel exercising until he was 5 or 6 months because I was exhausted. I gave myself 2 shots of heparin a day. I had nasty bruises for months. I thought my legs would be bruised forever. I should have taken pics.

Yay for the $10 credit! Smilie I've heard from the girls here that beauty/drugstore.com has sucky customer service. Glad to hear you got some compensation!
Quote from Tizzylicious :
I was so obsessed when I first joined but it has tapered off. I do pin things I love on the net so I don't loose them. I find it so much better than bookmarking. nod
Quote from azn1x6flame :
Congrats on the program match! So happy for you!! Have fun on your trips too!!
I just started following you on Pinterest! I love it too. I don't use it too often, but I'm using it more for planning or recipe collecting!
Quote from longislandgirl :
Congratulations Sheena hug
missed past few pages.... will catch up later
Quote from teenbean :
Hi Sheena - I just started following you. Hope you don't mind. I am on there about once a week. I think it's funner when you have more people to follow you get to see more things and get more ideas.
Quote from GoHeels :
That sounds like an awesome couple of months. Enjoy your time off. I'd love to visit India some day. Take lots of pics to share with us. Smilie
Quote from GirlOnTheBeach :
Sheena, I'm following you now on Pinterest!
Quote from azn1x6flame :
GH - Pinterest is like a visual bookmarker. For me, instead of going through food site to find a recipe, I go to my pins on Pinterest and refer to my recipe section or browse for food. We eat with our eyes, right? And I'm also using it as a planner for future wedding, house, etc :
nod
Quote from 2much4me :
Congratulations, Sheena!!! hug woot
lol, sorry this is going to be one giant comment - thanks, girls! And yay for following each other on Pinterest...I really like it for home decor and craft ideas, and like azn said, a storage place for recipes and future wedding stuff. Smilie
