I'm ok. It still hurts. I had to get out of the bed to get something out of the nightstand last night or the night before last. I feel a lot better. I overdid it last week on thursday. I just need to not do that again.

Walked around the mall with my super heavy purse. I would have been ok if I would have carried a smaller bag. Didn't think about that and I'm not supposed to be lifting anythingnheavier than 10 lbs. Made me sore for a few days Frown.

Are anyone else's orders on VS taking a long time to ship? Maybe I was used to their fast shipping, next day or the day after, got spoiled. My order from Thursday/Friday is still processed, waiting to ship!!

Quote from Tizzylicious :
She turns 13 next weekend. Preteen was enough "fun" for me. :lo l:



What's the name of the place? DH isn't a fan of sushi and I'm not a fan of Chinese so we are always on the lookout for a place we can both get what we like. We had one in PA and it was the best! We've been searching the Tampa area for one without any luck.
I remember you saying your DD is turning 13 soon. It just keeps getting better. The older they get the less you know, at least that's what they think. shake head Our DS finally started growing up a bit last year. He doesn't think we're total idiots anymore. We're getting smarter by the day. laugh out loud

The Chinese/Japanese restaurant is Ichiban. It's a buffet. You pay for takeout by the pound or you can eat there for a set price. I had only eaten there once before, when we first moved here. My DH ended up there out of desperation. Stick Out Tongue Our usual Chinese place wasn't open either. Confused It wasn't bad it just isn't as good as the a la carte place we planned to order from. It's located on Hwy 54 approximately 10 minutes from Wiregrass Mall. In case you didn't know, Hwy 56 becomes Hwy 54. Let me know, if you decide to give it a try. I can give you directions that wouldn't take you so far out of the way.

When we lived in your area, we used to go to a Chinese buffet across from University Mall. It was very good by buffet standards. Of course, that's been many years. The quality may have changed by now. When we ate there, there weren't any Japanese offerings, but that may have changed too.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Am not sure. I wait til they go from in process to processed normally.
I wish I would have spaced my orders further apart. Now, I know. Embarrassment My DH's 2 orders still say payment pending. They were for a bralette & sports bra. I used the same code/payment combo everyone else was using to get them for less than $5. Should I have him call or let it ride? The order status says they couldn't gain payment authorization & would keep trying for 14 days. This is the first time I've had this happen. Jade says she's had it happen, so I'm hoping it isn't a big deal.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :

no new vs codes. i have more src's to use!
Me too & now I'm afraid to use them. EEK!

oh no!!! Frown
yeah, our bags tend to be extremely detrimental to our health. i swear, i threw out my back once and i think it was bc of my heavy bag.

It's taking mine a long time too. They must have gotten overwhelmed with orders the past few days. I have an order from Sat. that is still says "in process".

You guys are really lucky that you can stack. It must be a regional thing. There's so much I still want to buy, but the payment pending message has scared me. I'm afraid to order anything else on that acct. I don't know what to do about it.

So, how many more Gorgeous bikinis are you going to buy? Teehee

Coverlaugh just the 1 for now, tho i am hoping the 34C will have a tad more coverage. not sure where to get ther 34C - i don't think i saw one at the store, and online it's B/O'd till may. Sadwalk i guess i should order it now...

i'm hoping swimwear will go on sale. it's kinda $$$!

this one [victoriassecret.com] - i actually just tried on the top for him. that was enough. laugh out loud

i think it costs more in store than online! i may have to return the set i got from the store and order online - and hell, i may even use a tier and get a 2nd top. i've never spent so much on a bathing suit before but this one is so lovely! (and i have all this SRC credit)

i've only deposited the checks from the angels card (from huntington bank) but those are fine. not sure about the ones from vsd. hopefully alvsy will chime in.

My orders are taking forever to ship. VS was probably out hunting eggs this weekend.
My checks didn't bounce so I guess they're safe.
