I also avoid Walmart if at all possible but i had to go yesterday because they are the only place to get same day matte photos printed. I went straight back to the photo counter and right back to my car so it wasn’t so bad.
But I did also order some picture frames online from Walmart this week and they aren’t bad! They’re pottery barn-esque for a fraction of the price. My newly decorated builtins are looking good!

FFFC 2: When I see people buying boxed wine, I automatically think they must be a lush. Nobody really WANTS to drink that stuff, right? I am a lush, so this is an accurate assumption. I am too, but I don't drink boxed wine...same goes for my in laws.

tallb I also experienced the Franzia hangover in college. It’s the worst. Happy bday @tummeecookee Re: Walmart. We have a “neighborhood Walmart” near us that is not as awful. It’s more just groceries and if I have to I’ll run in. The other Walmart’s around us make me itch jut going in. They are so gross and the always smell bad. Add me to the babies not sleeping club. According to my Fitbit I was awake/restless FOURTY FOUR times last night. WTAF?!?! I’m exhausted, busy dh is home tonight so I’m in the home stretch!!!

I get what you mean mamabear, but I’m sure you made the right decision. I had an internal opening recently that I think everyone expected me to go for. The only thing that would have been better was getting off a little earlier than I do now, but I don’t hate my job even though we are the busiest out of the whole hospital network we are under, so I’m staying.

yummeecookee how's everything going with your twin siblings? Babies doing well? I’m not sure. There seems to be some issues w my SM being too scared to let them do anything. They are 7.5mo old and can’t roll, sit unassisted, shimmy (you know, that precursor to crawling). She props them in boppies all day and doesn’t appear to allow them tummy time or chances to practice gross motor skills. They also have extremely flat heads bc of it. The pedi has talked to her about this and she still doesn’t do anything. Now mind you, I’m getting all the info from my dad so not sure what’s due to them just being not as far along bc preemies. He seems frustrated that she is so restrictive w them. Other than that they seem to be nice babies. Good temperament and happy.

yummeecookee cheers to being regular! Have a very happy birthday. Make it rain lahdeedah ! Hope the painting goes well cagoldi . Can we see some reno pics soon? Cass is my flower picker. I always have some dandelions in a vase. Sorry you're having a tough time nam2013 . Hopefully after work you can relax and feel better. The wine talk has me like this because the extent of my knowledge is that there's red and white:

Happy birthday yummeecookee! Hope it's a hit @ladeedah, sounds fun! I don't even know where a Walmart is (yet I know where all local targets are), but i have ended up on their website and they have rebranded and going after our market, especially with their commercials of busy moms with the various pickup/delivery options. I'm okay with them competing with Amazon, I'm sick if Amazon taking over the world.

I've already seen way too many bookstores close and I know other businesses have been and will continue to be affected.

FFFC: We do not have Amazon Prime. I am tempted, though, b/c of the new Tom Clancy/Jack Ryan show with John Krasinski.

How early were they, yummeecookee? I Linda wonder what to expect with milestones since P was preemie but she just rolled back to belly yesterday (at 5 months). She was only six weeks before her EDD and wasn't a twin though, obviously.

tgrimes I'm pretty sure we've established that the level of my taste buds isn't quite what yours is...I'm a cheap drinker. Which is also why I have terrible hangovers (plus I drink way too much!). I'm usually quite happy with my $10 large bottle of wine from my drive through liquor store or some Bud Lights. I'm not very picky. :-)

My Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc is only $8 at Total Wine!
