Day 217 and 218: Two Days and One Post!

I am writing yesterday's post today because I was too exhausted last night to do it.

Night before last Eis slept pretty good.  Almost seven hours, then three and a half, at which point I had to wake her so I could nurse her before I left for Zumba.

After Zumba, I showered, nursed Eis, then went to rehab.  Kim was awesome.  I did some back strengthening and she straightened me all out -- literally.  My hips were not aligned, so she fixed that, then she mashed out the spots in my neck and thoracic spine.  I left feeling wonderful.

When I got home, I grabbed Mom and Eis and we went to C Kirk Root to have my rings cleaned and to talk to Dan.  Then we went to Francesca's to look around and mom bought me a scarf, which was a nice surprise, and we stopped in Janie and Jack, where I got a beautiful top for Eisley (for next year) for $8!

When we got home, Eis napped, then we packed up and went to Mimi's for dinner.  Eis sat in her BebePod in the booth and was great.  She and I came home after eating, while Mom and Dad went to a movie.

While we were home, yesterday, FedEx stopped by two separate times.  First, they brought by the bank papers, however, they left them between our mailbox things at the street, just lying on the street!  My mom found them when she went to pick up the mail.  Next, they left the highchair on our front porch, however they didn't ring the doorbell and I know why.  The package was totally destroyed!  I bet they knew we wouldn't accept it if we saw it.  Not only was the box damaged, but the high chair was destroyed, which we didn't even have to open it to see that.


My dad called FedEx last night and complained.  All they did was apologise, but not even very well.  BuyBuyBaby, on the other hand, was shocked and appalled by it.  We took it in today and they offered to ship us a new one or we could wait for them to get in a shipment or they could sell us the floor model for a discount.  I checked out the floor model and it was in great shape, so I got it for 20% off of the price I paid (which was already 20% off!)  So, I paid $83 for a high chair that was $130.  Nice!!

Today, after BBB, I went to CVS to get more allergy pills and get a refill of my thyroid meds.  However, Tricare won't pay for a refill until the 11th, which is when I go out of town.  Luckily, I have just enough pills to get me through the trip, plus a day or two, so no worries.  Good news is that CVS was able to pull over my allergy Rx and said they could fill it Monday.

I also bought some stuff for Ty, but the post office only had big boxes and I didn't want to spend $10.95 to ship a box that wasn't full, so I will ship it Monday.  I haven't sent my sweet husband anything in a while and I want him to know he's special.  Though, while I was at CVS, I saw this box of chocolates and wanted it sooo bad!


I am trying to be good and not eat sweets until he comes home (so I can have the best chance of losing these last seven pounds), so I didn't buy them.  I also didn't buy them because it's lame to buy yourself a box of chocolates!

Also, yesterday, I was perusing Bluefly because I like to do that on occasion, and I came across the most gorgeous jacket! It's a Marc New York quilted asymmetrical down jacket.  The crimson is my favourite, of course, but it's sold out.  I love the white, too, but they don't have a medium, just the large.  They do have one left in brown, but I like the other two colours better.  Though, as much as I am in love with this jacket, I think everyone would think me nuts if I bought it.  I don't have a rainproof warm jacket like this, nor do I have a jacket like it.  I thought about clicking the "notify me when it's back in stock" link, but I would break down and buy it and I need to not spend monies. Sadface.  I will just have to dream about it.


See how pretty?  I would look so good in that.  Shoot, I'd look good in the white, too -- I look great in my white Oakley lightweight sweatshirty/jacket thing.  Maybe I'll just photoshop my head on it and pretend! Like this... though I think my head may be smaller in real life...



Anyway... tonight I have a Dynamite Boy/Cruiserweight concert to go to -- Yay!!  It's a one-time reunion thing, so I couldn't pass it up.  Mom and Dad will watch Eis and Mom will drop me off and pick me up, since it's on Riverside and I don't want to drive and park there.

So, there you have it.  Yesterday and today all wrapped up in one neat little post and full of pictures!
