Afternoon ladies!
My animals were jerks this morning. Cat woke us up at 2:30. So annoying.
I have managed to meal plan for a couple weeks, grocery shop, get a bunch of dishes done, and do laundry. Now I'm chilling in my pjs watching Doctor Who.

MH's brother and SIL are renting an Airbnb for New Year's in NYC. They have invited us to join them. On one hand, New Year's Eve in NY sounds exciting and fun. On the other, I don't get along with them and there won't be privacy for us. It's also a lot of hassle.
I'm pretty sure no matter what we do, we'll regret it to some extent.

I wouldn't go to NYC on NYE is someone paid me to go there. It would a hell no from me.
I went to the liquor store on my lunch break to buy wine to bring to the party tomorrow and was admittedly a little annoyed that I had to wait 10 minutes for a funeral procession to pass by in order to turn into the parking lot (and I felt guilty for being annoyed). But then I decided to check the cooler and they had two very hard-to-get, excellent, local IPAs in there, including my favorite, Sip of Sunshine. I was psyched! Totally worth the wait to get into the store!

Definitely visit at another time though.
There was a conversation on here that said there's no bathrooms. But that can't be true... right?
My brother, who lived in NYC for a few years, told me no real New Yorker would watch the ball drop in Times Square. Apparently it's all tourists.

There are no bathrooms. It's true. The only way you can go to the bathroom is 1) wear a diaper (something people actually do) or 2) pay for a ticket to watch it from a restaurant. My uncle used to go to the Olive Garden in Times Square every year and pay for tickets so that he could drink, be warm, and piss at his leisure.

So...I didn't get to leave quite as early as I hoped bc the one thing I needed to accomplish took forever thanks to our terrible office machines and other annoyances. But...since I couldn't bill most of the time (me sitting around waiting for copies to be made, mostly) I decided to finally make my wedding album (only a year and a half late so far) and that was a fun way to kill some time.
TTC since July 2014. CP March 2015. IVF #1 March 2016, 5R, 3M, 2F with ICSI. Transferred 2 on day 3. CP. Surprise BFP and then CP August 2016 (prep cycle for IVF). IVF #2: zero eggs retrieved IVF #3: 6R, 5M, 5F, 3 (2 8A and 1 11A) transferred, one "B" graded embryo frozen on day 5. BFP (at home 7dp3dt, confirmed 14dp3dt with 1552 beta) and U/S at 5w5d, 2 sacs and 2 yolks!

Awesome! What program are you using? We used Blurb book, and it turned out really well, but that was about 4 years ago...so I am sure there are many more out there now?

No, these aren't grapefruity at all. They are full of delicious hops, though!
You said it's local. Local to where?
Connecticut. Lawson's Finest Liquids is technically in Vermont, but they brew their Sip of Sunshine at the Two Roads Brewing Co. in Stratford, CT. The G-Bot (formerly called Gandhi-Bot, but changed due to people being offended) is brewed by New England Brewing Company in Woodbridge, CT. This is what the label formerly looked like, in case anyone's curious.

I just did snapfish, I made a few smaller albums as gifts for the parents and grandparents last year and they look nice and were easy. My photographer actually uploaded all the pics there so it was just easy to keep using it. It's not fancy, but it'll do!

Olive Garden is charging $400 for tickets for NYE. It was on the news a few days ago.
OK, my decision has been made: I'm staying local and enjoying free bathroom access.

Seriously. You couldn't pay me to stand for hours in the freezing cold, with no bathroom access. That doesn't sound like fun AT ALL. A girl who lived in my dorm my freshman year in college went and got arrested for peeing in an alley. Yeah, no thanks!

@pineappleoranges - I'm so, so late on this, but that BC thread you posted on Monday... I'm finally to page 200 or so, when she posts the pic of bherbert. I'm dying. It's just... gah. So much build up! And then...
Words have failed me. I had to come back over here to tell you. Still 100 or so pages left to read.
Hi ladies. I'm bored and lazy. I have a list of chores to get done this week but I don't want to do anything. And I have to go to Target today, but it's so cold and I don't want to go outside.
Plus I'm still annoyed with H from yesterday. And he has spent the entire afternoon napping even though he said he would "do dishes and vacuum", so that's not helping my mood either...

ceejay last night MH said...as he stretched out on the couch...don't worry about the dishes (from the dinner I cooked) I'll take care of them as soon as I digest a little. 10mins later....snoring. I tried doing them noisily to wake him up, but got nowhere. Can you vacuum where's he napping? Might get the point across...or he'll be like mine and sleep right through it.

I used Chatbooks because I am lazy, I just clicked the heart on my iphone photo gallery and chatbooks printed them all in chronological order. I like the way they turned out, and having them in physical form and not on my phone makes me feel good I miss printed photos. When I get a new phone I normally lose all my pictures because I am too dumb to figure out iCloud.

Have you ever used groovebook? It's like $4 a month and they send you prints of up to 100 pics on your phone. The quality isn't great on the prints, but it's a fun and easy way to get physical prints delivered so you don't lose them!

Is that the one that was on shark tank? It has a little half circle cut out in the spine so it can ship better I think. I forgot the name, but I might try that one for my next batch 100% of the pictures that I printed are of my animals. No shame in my game

I'm cleaning up the house while H breaks down all of the boxes from Christmas in the garage. Then we're going to start Star Wars Episode 5. We've already watched 3 and 4 today. Hoping to finish 5 and 6 tonight and then see the new one tomorrow morning.
Gah. Today has made me realize just how few steps I really do take on an average day. 2pm and I'm only at 2,657. And that's with a brief trip through the grocery store.
Maybe the dogs and I will go for a walk tonight. Or the dog park, if the weather stays cold.
