My, Oh my.
So I’m really kinda excited that I’m going to Akron Saturday. 🙂 I must admit, I’m a little nervous as I won’t know anyone (well, except for Moo!) but I’m stepping outside of my comfort zone, which is a good thing, right? Right. I think…Anyway! Should be good times. 🙂 Hopefully I’ll be able to stay awake on the drive home. 🙂
WE HAVE A HOUSE IN HAWAI’I!!!! DH accepted a house on Army housing (that’ll be weird!) but he pitted the AF against the Army and the Army offered us a 3 bedroom with 400 more sq feet than the tiny 2 bedroom the AF offered. 🙂 PLUS the Army housing is closer to where Hubby will be working so score one for that! I’m so freakin’ happy to have a place to live I could pee on the floor. 🙂
Speaking of peeing: Monkey peed in my FIL’s slipper yesterday!!! Talk about mortified. Oh my gosh. I was letting him have some naked time to air out his badly diaper rashed bum (score one for the terribly Mommy who let him have too much prune juice) and the next thing I know he’s peeing in his slipper! At least my FIL has a wonderful sense of humor and is a great guy. 🙂 He laughed and said “I’ve heard of older kids doing worse things on purpose!” He did say it was too bad Monkey didn’t pee in MIL’s slipper which I found really hysterical. 🙂 Today he peed in his own eye during a diaper change. Poor little guy cried! Lol. I think he just startled himself. 🙂 I used a warm water washcloth to wipe him off with since the wipes hurt and well….warm towel on boy parts incites pee!
In other news I’m ready to kill my MIL. She left for an 2 night trip today and before she left she doused herself in her perfume. Why one would do this for a 4-6 hour drive is beyond me. Anyway. She hugged Monkey before she left and after that he REEKED of her perfume! His nose ended up running and you could tell his allergies were aggrivated by it. Not only that but it ended up giving me a friggin’ migraine! One would think that after being told that she could not wear perfume around Monkey after the debacle at the hospital (who douses themselves in perfume to go see a FOUR HOUR OLD NEWBORN?!?!!?) she would know that it wasn’t a one time rule. Until we say otherwise it’s a FOREVER rule. Just like the “He can NOT eat eggs or anything WITH eggs” rule! Argh, she makes me so mad sometimes. She doesn’t think, at least not about anyone other than her and what’s best for herself. So aggravating. Today I was pretty damn livid. In fact, I would have been even more-so if my head hadn’t been pounding.
So my FIL just comes in and says “So, I found the invitation to So-and-So’s wedding in a basket downstairs.” (FYI: The wedding is on April 10th!) “I talked to MIL and she was supposed to send it back by last week.” Basically he needed to know if I was going to take Monkey (no) so that he could fill out the Reception card and send it in. Way to go MIL. I know it’s her nephew and all but seriously. Send back the damn card. She’d be one of those people that, as a bride, I would be cursing in my sleep for not sending the card back leaving me not knowing to order food for those people or not.
So basically this was ranting about my MIL. Who, by the way, still has not replaced the shower curtain in the main bathroom that is COVERED (I kid you not) with gross stuff. No wonder I’m still showering in her shower in my IL’s room. No gross stuff on that curtain.
I’m reading all my faves even I’m forgetting to note. It’s tough now that Hubby took our new mini-notebook so I’m relying on catching a computer here and there that’s not in use. 🙂 Lemme know if I’ve missed anything of uber importance!!! 🙂
We wouldn’t be DILs if we didn’t rant about our MILs, m’dear.

You should go start reading [Cinnamon] RIGHT NOW because she’ll be here Saturday, too. Also, I meant to offer – if you want to come early so you can be here before all the craziness starts and you’re overwhelmed with people, you can!
