I'm here, dying for today to be over so the weekend can come and go. Dont think I will be hearing anything today.

I have to fix my car and attend a baby shower so maybe this will keep me somewhat occupied this weekend.

Food will definitely cheer you up. I got a little sad at 12 today but I'm already over it and got treats from a coworker.

My hubby said by the time I get my decision I won't be excited anymore because it took so long and it has been frustrating.

The worst part is all the cheap tickets I've been seeing and cant buy.

Yes wanted to be there for the same time. My daughter bday is the 5th of February and my hubby is the 12th.

We had a housing inspection yesterday and the rep was asking my hubby if I arrived yet. She wrote the letter for us.
