Good luck, @bubbs119 ! Sorry your boobs are enormous.

ETA: Maybe that should have been "Sorry your boobs are enormous...?" Are we sorry? IDK.

O slept through the night last night for the first time. 6-6:30! It was amazing.

This weekend is very chill, very few plans!

Can't wait for next weekend when I have a haircut, color, and mani/pedi to kick off my bday month. Then a week later we leave for the Dominican! Also I just sent out invites for my bday party, which is going to be a wine tasting at my house. I've had one before, but this will be hosted by someone who knows their shit with fancy wines.

Sooo I can't wait for March!

Widget123 T&P for your friend. Could you make a batch of homemade cookies or brownies to take to her?
@bubbs119 good luck at the interview!
Happy Friday, it's supposed to be in the 50s today! I feel a walk is in our future today.

[3dimesdown]

@bubbs119 looks fine. But, I'm at work wearing a tshirt and jeans with holes in one knee, so WTF do I know?

[3dimesdown]

I'm dying over Kristykristyleelee's meat counter pic. kemdupuis should definitely use that one. The meat has purple flowers! I love purple flowers!

[carolyngrace]

@bubbs119 you look great! Very professional. If it were me I'd put my hair in a low bun and add a necklace but that's just a style difference

[carolyngrace]

@bubbs119 what is your wall color called? May need to copy in my LR

[periwinkledaydreams]

BAHHAHA peer pressure for kemdupuis to change her avatar to Kristykristyleelee work of art meat pic. SKILLZ.

[jillywilly]

@bubbs119, looks good to me. If you want to dress it up more, maybe add a sparkly necklace?
Also, +1 to only being able to see a meat counter when I see kemdupuis avatar now. It's making me want a hamburger, and it's only 9:40 in the morning. I'd settle for a pretzel, though. Those aren't a breakfast thing around here, but one dipped in cinnamon sugar sounds good right now. I hope you feel better though, too!
Widget123, I'd maybe send a card now to let her know you're thinking of her, and then maybe send one of those pre-made meal services in a few weeks, or closer to the due date? I'm sorry for her loss.

Today DS pulled himself to a stand on his toy chest. I think it was a complete fluke, because we spent the next 45 minutes of me trying to encourage him to do it again, and him crying that I wouldn't just lift him up to a stand, but it happened! I'm wondering if he's going to be a baby that skips crawling after all - the last day or two he's been super into standing and "walking" with our help. I guess we'll find out soon enough!

You girls have been busy today! @bubbs119 good luck at your interview, your outfit looks good!

And +eleventy-billion to kemdupuis changing her avatar to the meat pic;)

[erbear]

I just laughed so hard at the meat counter I scared LO. Thanks, Kristykristyleelee!

[tjanca22]

The bridezilla friend of mine texted me to tell me she's going shopping for bridesmaid dresses alone. I'm so happy I don't have to go! Just tell me where to go to get sized. Happy camper over here!

[pghtruelove]

Kristykristyleelee I'm dying here. I was going to ask who was good at Photoshopping.

Widget123 I'm sorry fork ur friends loss. And food would be appropriate.

@bubbs119 good luck today!

The Jehovah's kept pounding on the door this morning and woke the baby up. Like if I don't answer the first time then please stop. SO was pissed and yelled at them.

I have my follow up gastro appt today hopefully I can get good meds!

[carolyngrace]

Ok I need to crowd source too, about my upcoming haircut. I know for sure I'm dying the underside of my hair a deep red. Maybe some under the bangs as well.

Question is: just a trim? Add shorter bangs? Or chop it? (I have had very short hair most of my life so leaning against cutting it off at this point)

Now:

If I just got a trim I want to aim for this, but a bit shorter:


Bangs:


Chop!

[pghtruelove]

carolyngrace trim with bangs!

[mrsmonogrammed]

carolyngrace I like the chop! best, and I usually prefer longer hair. I think that cut would look really cute on you:)

FTFY

I am crying. I need this framed.

Each day this week I've had a surprise planning period because a class was cancelled for whatever reason. Totally fine with me but it'd be cool if I got some sort of heads up. I just walked into my second & final classroom for the day and there was no one there. Guess I'll pretend to do real work for an hour-ish.

[tiffbot]

carolyngrace chop it! I love making big changes at the hairdresser!

All those in favor of kemdupuis changing her avatar to the real
meat counter?

Also, my phone keeps trying to capitalize meat.

I am 100% not in favor. As it is we are going to have too much raw meat to look at today. No gracias! But if it's what kemdupuis wants then she should have it!

(Also, posting before reading everything else)

[periwinkledaydreams]

carolyngrace the chop! I love that cut! Wish Id go ballsy and dramatic like I used to back in the day but the maintenance of a short style is way too intense for me. Let me live vicariously through you lol!

[kemdupuis]

Widget123 I am so sorry for your friend's loss. So sad. I'd send flowers and a hand written note?

Joolschweets, you are blowing my mind. HOW have you gotten this far in life without a soft pretzel?! Auntie Anne's are the best (sold in malls down here), but this is the recipe I use at home. They are delicious! I like to dip mine in honey mustard! www.yammiesnoshery.com/2012/04/auntie-annes-pretzels-copycat-recipe.html

carolyngrace, I love that cut and I think it will be super flattering on you. I LOVE the idea of red underneath. I've never been that bold, so I am kind of jealous

DH and I are going grocery shopping tonight before his parents come. Maybe I can convince him to take a picture with me in front of an actual meat counter? I will do my best. He is going to think I am insane.

[txngrl31]

carolyngrace, I actually think you would look really good with the chop! It's edgy and modern.

[kemdupuis]

@bubbs119, I missed your picture before you poofed it, but I am sure you look great! Good luck!!

One of my law school friends, who got me the job I was laid off from while 6 months pregnant with LBB found me on Facebook last month. She quit her job at the firm and now sells R&F.

Another friend and I have been waiting to see how long it would take her to recruit me. It took longer than expected, but yesterday she finally messaged me about an amazing business opportunity she had for me.

ETA: I found a gif I like better

[veggiemo]

I have never laughed so hard at my computer screen. This thread is amazing.

carolyngrace definitely the chop! It would be so cute on you and easy to manage

False. Short hair is so much harder to manage. My biggest life regret is chopping my hair in October. I now have to wash and dry my hair every time I want to go out of the house. I miss my long hair and putting it in a ponytail!!

[Widget123]

team trim just because your hair is so thin, but either way I want to see an after pic  carolyngrace ,

[carolyngrace]

Here's me a couple years back. I've had every short haircut possible. And it's definitely more ME.,.
