I am so mad!

Ok here is my long vent!

Last month we bought a 7 piece dinette set from RC willey. We have had nothing but problems with it ever since. Actually I should say the table is just fine..it's the chairs that are a pain.

First of all when we went to pick it up,they had it at the wrong store. The store where it was supposed to be had one set of chairs that they gave us. So we went to the other store to pick up the table and the other 2 sets of chairs. So we got it home and a few days later my hubby attempted to put a chair together. It ended up breaking and I blamed hubby because he is known for having a bad temper. So the next day he is able to get one put together and it looks fine. Well then he opens the other box and there is no hardware in it. So I get to make the 40 minute trip to exchange the chairs. Hubby ends up working a lot the next few days so I decided to try and put one together. Well he was right, they are a huge pain to put together! I was so ornery by the time I finished. So at this point we have 2 chairs done,1 broken. So Adam put one more together and then one of the ones I did broke and on the other one the holes don't line up right! At this point we have 2 broken chairs,3 assembled ones and one without the seat put on because the holes are wonky. So where am I now? Sitting at the computer venting because the chair Brianna was sitting on just broke. The back just popped off! So I am making a call to RC Willey tomorrow and I'm going to demand justice! We haven't even used the chairs for a month,it's so ridiculous! Anyway if you are still with me,thanks for listening to my woes.

Wordless Wednesday

Monday, March 24, 2008

I don't know if I should laugh or cry.

So I was in the bathroom earlier today getting ready to get in the tub. Brianna comes in and says,"Mommy,you look beautiful! I mean not when you are naked, but when you are dressed you look beautiful"

Umm,thanks?

*cough* *cough*

I am SO tired of being sick! This is the fourth time I have been sick in the last two months. I have a horrible ear ache and cough,my throat is so raw that my kids can't hear me. (of course how is that different from any other time?)

I guess I should be glad this didn't happen last week since I was busier. I have to go grocery shopping and buy things for Brianna's birthday party. Hopefully my hubby will have a slow week so he can be home more often so I can rest. Remember the days when you could rest when you got sick? Sometimes I just want my mommy. ;)

Crib? He don't need no stinkin' crib!


To be fair,that chair has the same effect on me.

Except I don't nap peacefully,I have kids in my face every 2 minutes.

Forgiveness

Last night Josh got in trouble for throwing toys. He was pouting on the floor and Brianna kept telling him that the Easter Charlie Brown was on tv. He was ignoring her so she got closer to him and he smacked her. Instead of being angry and hitting him back,she was broken hearted. Huge tears welled up in her eyes and she sobbed on my shoulder. Not ten minutes later they were playing and laughing like best buddies and all was forgiven. Sometimes I wish I could forgive that easy.

Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.

What the Travelocity gnome does in his spare time.


'Creepy' Figure Haunts Town In Middle Of The Night

GENERAL GUEMES, Argentina - Residents of a small town in South America have been spooked by a bizarre-looking figure that was captured on video in the middle of the night.
A group of friends were socializing recently in the town of General Guemes, Argentina, when their attention was captured by a ruffling of some grass nearby. After several moments, a bizarre-looking figure emerged -- appearing to be short in stature and wearing a pointed hat.
Witnesses say it looked like a gnome -- a mythical creature characterized by its extremely small size and penchant for wearing red, pointed hats.
One of the witnesses captured the figure on video with his cell phone, which was later posted on Britain's The Sun website.
"We thought it was a dog, but when we saw this gnome-like figure begin to emerge, we were really afraid," The Sun quoted teenager Jose Alvarez as saying.
"This is no joke. We are still afraid to go out -- just like everyone in the neighborhood now," he added.

Rock-a-bye


Apparently our new chair is so comfy that you can fall asleep in it within one minute. That is what Brady did right after dinner tonight.

Where is my nesting stage?

My house is a mess and I can't find the motivation to clean. I'm only six months along but I feel like I'm eight. I have no energy and I feel like a lump. I want my house to be clean but I feel like I'm made of lead. It's a good thing this is my last baby,I don't think my body could handle another pregnancy.
