I would shop. But I don't have the extra cash right now. And I don't have the prime thing.
But if I did, I'd do some serious Christmas shopping.
Morning.

Good morning! DD is at basketball camp this week! Coming home on Thursday. SHe is having a great time. She said she was practicing and the Head Coach of the Womens' college team there pulled her aside. She said she immediately freaked out thinking she did something wrong. Anyway, the Coach said 'What grade are you in"? And she said, she was going in to 8th. She is tall so she gets mistaken for a lot older. The coach told her he has been watching her play and that she has a lot of potential and to keep up the good work"! DD was thrilled about that he complimented her. And, then later, they were playing a game and she did her signature "Up and Under" post move and her coach was ecstatic, lol. Ok, that is my "brag" for the day. That warmed my heart since that made her feel good.

That's awesome! In a few years there will be a geek jr. in the wnba!
Good morning. I'm exhausted. We are night people and having to get up early for music camp is killing us. I am going to try to talk DH into doing all our errands today so we can relax tomorrow. Doing everything at once is not his style though. So we'll see. We need dog food and have to make a Sam's trip. I need to run to the pharmacy. Still have a costume to make. Didn't buy enough material. Ugh. So much to do.
Good luck flan.

Raining and thundering here. Deep rumbling thunder.
There are no deals on Amazon that have made me want to buy. I know what I am looking for and nothing we want is going on sale.
I am stuck at home until the mechanic calls. My brakes were sounding crunchy/grindey which is not a good sound. I have a feeling that the $300 I came out ahead at the casino the other day will be the mechanics very soon.
It also means that today is a good day to catch up on school work.
Good thoughts for DH's surgery, Flan.
LGS, there may be a college scholarship in the future for DD if she has those moves now.
Good luck on the surgery flan! I hope it goes well!
LGS - good for your DD! Tell her to keep working hard. Even with tons of talent, coaches look for kids who actually know how to work hard. I am sure she has learned that from you anyway tho. Congrats!
I haven't looked at Amazon today yet. Maybe I should check it out?!
I heard from DD. Her team won all their games so far and is in the top flight of the bracket now. It is now "must win" to keep playing. She is having fun.
Off to work today. Trying to decide if I want to hit the road tomorrow with the doc and visit my parents for a few days. It's a long drive but the dog and I could do it no problem. I will see how today goes first.

So far, no deals that I had to have, but my sister has found some baby gear at good prices. I'll keep checking though. They had that Fire Remote and the Amazon Echo that JPT recommended but both sold out really fast.
That's great Gaga. I know how proud you are of her.
Prime day, tax free holidays and other big savings events always seem to happen when I am running low.
I had the 30 day free trial thing. I didn't use it once. So $100 a month is not worth it to me. If I did more online shopping then maybe.
Glad your home FWM. Rest up.
NJN, I'm with you. I'd rather do everything, all the running, in one day. I go so far as to plan then route and stops so I don't have all the back and forth.
Yeah Flan, how's the hudster?

It's $99 per YEAR, not per month, but if you didn't use it during the free trial, you probably won't use it much in a year.
I'm sharing Prime with DS, so it costs each of us $50 per year. Well worth it for me.

Yeah. I know. Like I said, I don't use it enough for it to be worth it.

O.My.Gosh. I'm having an Angus Steak Bacon Cheese sandwich from Arby's. It is fabulous.
I've heard it's good.
Dad goes to Arby's at least once a week.
Usually pay day. It's right beside his bank.

I think that may have hurt my feelings, but I will have to think about it some more...
Some people are proud to be Divas. My neighbor has Diva on the license plate.
Yeah, I guess so. I just didn't care for the way it was brought into the conversation, I guess...
Well, screw them if they don't appreciate you!
flan
It's not that. I was asked why I was driving DH's car today. I said that I didn't have gas in my car, so DH took it so he could put gas in it. They think that makes me a diva...

Surgery is over & I'm home. Let's see: surgery was 4 1/2 hours, & it took another 90 minutes for him to get to his room. The rest of the day, he'll be drifting in & out, so I decided to come home.
I'm NOT a patient person & the book I brought with me wasn't holding my interest.
The surgeon said that the deterioration was pretty severe. Imho, DH should have had the surgery 6 months ago.
But it's over & he should be home Friday.
And a BIG "Thank you!" to ohfour for holding my hand.

Sounds like they're being jealous. I would play it up.

My Mom's husband has traded cars with her for over 27 years when her car gets low on gas. He takes it, fills it up with gas, makes sure the windshield is clean and the fluid levels are good, then takes it back home and trades vehicles again. If that makes my Mom a Diva, I say the more power to her (and to you, OhFour)!
Must. Have. Nap. Have already put in more steps than when I workout and still have half a day to go...

I would happily be called a Diva if my dh did that for me. They're just jealous. :)
