Hello! We had a pretty low key day yesterday with yard work and cleaning. I'm waiting for MH to get home so I can go to Aldi. We have my nieces birthday party later.

Hey everyone. I hope you are having a good weekend. It’s rainy and cold here. Totally not a “summer” weekend. We recently found out that our elementary school will place Z in 1st grade, so she will be two grades behind O which is in line with their age gap. Also, i passed the certification exam that was tied to the grad school classes i took this school year. Hopefully life is on the upswing. peachsmama. I am going to send you a pm. I’m curious how things are going for you after surgery. I think I’m ready to make a consultation appointment. Hey girl hey! Awesome about Z. Congrats on the passing the exam. Yay for boobs! I want to be next in line after you! 😅

Morning.
I’m having my coffee in peace. We’re headed in to the city in a few hours for shopping, eating, and whatever else we get into. I’ll try to find something for the kids to enjoy. It’s supposed to be a pretty day.

Still raining and cold this morning. We will be taking some of the big kids to the mall for summer clothes and DD needs to find something to wear for 5th grade graduation (which is actually supposed to happen)! The adults are considering hitting up a bar with a cover band and pretending we are 21 again tonight. A plus if a big age gap in the kids is we now can have the big ones babysit the little.

Morning. I’m at work again. It’s a little bit busier than yesterday, which is nice. After work we are going to a friend’s house to hang out and barbecue. It’s not that nice hear, very overcast but at least it’ll be 72 and maybe not raining.

So has anyone read through the massive FFFC? I'm about 30 pages in and wondering if there's any point in going further? Does it ever get much better? WTH are they talking about for the remaining 120 pages?

We are at my in laws on Cape Cod. It was our first night since the summer before COVID that we have slept a night away from home. I was surprised C did well sleeping in the bunk beds with his cousin all night. It’s been raining the whole time and we are bored. We will head home tonight to avoid traffic coming back tomorrow. Missed you and congratulations snoopmommymom! I’m jealous of all the boobs. I’m such a medical nightmare that undergoing elective surgery is too big of a risk but I keep having dreams of skin removal and perky boobs.

WTH are they talking about for the remaining 120 pages? Apparently Zweber, who has since deleted, has been embellishing stories about her life for years. I think it’s more so harmless and she admitted she has a problem with lying. Apparently a few regs started noticing inconsistencies in her stories and then yesterday there was a real outlandish one and they decided to lay it out to all. No denial on her part and they copied some post. Nothing intentionally harmful or cat fishing for money, just wanting to be liked. That was about a thousand or so posts then it devolved into discussing past posters that lied.

WTH are they talking about for the remaining 120 pages? I literally just stumbled upon it when I was coming to this board and noticed the title in my recently updated list. I just quit because Tapa was being slow with refreshing. I didn’t get far.

I figured this was who they were talking about in that other massive thread about past posters (maybe?), that select people were referencing a poster that was known to lie but no one would say exactly who it was. Once they said the poster would go silent when it came up, that’s who I noticed was missing for the most part. I guess it’s confirmed now. I’ll probably still go try to read eventually because I’m nosy. Lol

Hi! Crappy weather here too, which is a shame bc DH actially got the pool ready w without much trouble this year(*knocks on wood) Yesterday we bought a fire pit as an early anniversary gift to each other, so I'm excited to try that out tomorrow. We spent all afternoon prepping freezer meals for once baby is here, so I'm exhausted and DH just ran out to pick up dinner. You’re so close! Did you decide what you want to do?

Would this bother you.....
As you may know, my daughter's name is Luella and we call her Lue/Lue Lue. I really wanted a name to have those nicknames (my first choice was Louisa). Anywho, 3 years later my sister had a daughter named Lucia. She is now 2 and all of a sudden she, her H and his family call her Lu/Lu Lu. Like no big deal but I'm so annoyed! For reference we see them multiple times a week, they are 2 miles from us.

Rinse, repeat. They mention it later in the thread and are still able to tag her, so she hasn't deleted her account.

Especially when you live close. My sister did this with their dog they ditched with my parents. Named it Madeline when I have a Madison-- both nn Maddie. 😒😒😒

I don't care at all about her being Lucia, but the nicknames drive me nuts. And come on with the dog 🙄

For reference we see them multiple times a week, they are 2 miles from us. That would annoy me, but I get that it probably happened naturally because of her name. Did she say anything about those nicknames when she first told you her name? ETA: I see Lucy mentioned- that would be better. Maybe start to call her that and see if they pick up on it.

wineallthetime that would bother me. Does your sister call your lue by her nickname? We ruled out some boy names we liked that were too similar to my nephew's names/same initials bc I was sensitive to that being an issue. I'm sorry though

When she named her she asked me if it would bother me the names were similar but said, "of course we wouldn't use the nicknames you use!".
