My drivers license expires in June, and by then I'll have to go to the DMV to get the Provisional thing removed (I've had a full license for two years now but don't feel like paying for a new one) and the under 18 until 2013 and under 21 until 2016 things removed (I turn 21 at the end of April). I am not looking forward to that trip. I should probably get a new photo taken too. People who look at my license question whether it is me based on the picture. It was taken when I was 16, so...

Aren't you required to have a new photo taken? We are here in Ohio.

I love my rice cookers (yes I have 2) and my slow cookers (again yes 2) I don't think I could function without them, those and my 12 quart stock pots. When things get busy or I'm feeling a bit lazy I make "dump" dinners. Just dump everything in the crock pot turn on and go.

why would you need 2 of each? you need tons of rice?

 

[MOXOMUMD]

I'll take the one on the left please.

I'll take the one in the middle.

That sounds great! You should definitely buy it soon. I want to see a picture, when you finish this product!

I might buy it tomorrow but won't get it until Christmas. That dress is on my must make list but I might put Elsa or Olaf as the pocket buddy (hiding under large rock away from @MinnieM123 ) It might have to wait for me to get through a few other projects before I get to it. It might be for next holiday season

I like jasmine, basmati, plain I like rice I really like that I can now find them all in brown rice

I like bastmati too, but maaaan.. its halluva expensive over here! D:

 

[Cesar R M]

Agreed. Shown below, is a really OLD person --

I bet people ask him about his weight loss programs.

One is strictly for gluten free items and the other is for things like oatmeal and mac and cheese

Sympathy like. I'm lucky I found a place that sells it in bulk cheap

I'm sure it's one you would not like

But...if we talk you out of it, how are we going to get you to embroider Disney stuff for us?

Ooh, that's a fabulous idea! Figgy will be our very own personal seamstress of Disney apparel. We'd pay for this service, of course!

What do you think @figmentfan423?

I think sometimes mail carriers just can't be bothered. There are some mistakes that are logical...like, our neighbors around the corner have the same first initial as my husband and the same last name as us. So it makes sense that something addressed to M. Lastname on our street goes to the wrong M. Lastname. But something that's on a completely different street, no resemblance of name...how do they deliver that to the wrong address unless it's just like "Oh,...I already went there today, I must have missed this piece of mail and I don't feel like going back, so I'll just dump it in a random person's box. "?

You dont use names, you use addresses lol

This would not surprise me in the least. I'm still waiting for the postal service to shut down completely.

and one of my favorites.

I'm thinking I have the only decent mail carrier as a few weeks ago a piece of mail came to my house and it had the wrong address on it addressed to us but with the wrong house number She knows her route well.

I'm so tired. I worked until 10:30 last night, then biked home like a bat out of you-know-where because I was alone and it was dark. Got home and DD woke up with pain and couldn't get back to sleep. Finally got bed at about 1 a.m. and then this morning, DS is having a bad day...looks like he's getting a molar so he's in pain and grouchy. First he had a meltdown because he couldn't find the socks he wanted to wear and no other socks would do. (They are new, and still soft/flexible, not stiff) Finally found the socks...he forgot daddy told him to put them on the dresser since he had only worn them home from soccer yesterday. Then we get downstairs and he had a meltdown because DD asked if she could play on the ipad. Every day, DS is the first one up, he gets dressed, goes downstairs and plays on the ipad until I have his breakfast ready. So this morning, he was the last one up...I actually had to wake him up, which I NEVER have to do. (already the first indication that he's not feeling well) and so DD asked to play on the ipad, and since she never does, I said yes, and DS had a meltdown because HE wanted to play. Then he fought with his sister over daddy's spot on the couch...she was sitting there and he came downstairs and was mad because that was where he was planning to sit. DD is skipping GRID today because she's exhausted, and I gave them popsicles for their after school snack to combat the ouchy molar growing in. And tonight I have a meeting of the board for choir. I haven't been home a single evening this week. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed today. I so can't wait until Disney!!! Calgon take me away!

Huge sympathy like! Hopefully it'll slow down very soon.
