I have a problem

I love to shop. love love love to spend money. I don't have any money to spend, but I have full shopping bags at every online retailer there is. In a day I can spend THOUSANDS online. Online shopping is the worst thing that has ever happened to me.

Luckily for me, I can stop myself from clicking "purchase". But today I found two good deals that were just too good to pass up, and they were for my Baby Girl, so it's okay! And for a very low price, we have two of her birthday presents purchased. I'll probably only pick up some clothes for her, though thanks to clearance sales last summer and fabulous hand-me-downs we're pretty good for this summer.

She can look forward to:

I really wish we could give them to her right now, but I think she'll be excited to get them for her birthday. And for under $35 with free shipping, I'm done with her "big" presents!! (How many more years can I get away with her "big" presents being cheesy Playskool toys??)

rain = evil?

This rain has got to stop. While no one in my immediate family is in danger of flooding I'm still so done with this rain. It's terrible and so depressing. At least this time around, I slept through most of the bad weather. It just makes everyone tired and grumpy. I'm so done!

Next topic. I do not currently own a jogging stroller (through I frequently search Craig's List for one). My brother does have one. For some reason I cannot convince him to let me have it this summer. He claims he "needs" it and will be "using it himself". I say those excuses are not good enough. I NEED one and he HAS one. So why can't his be mine? Because he has a child of his own? (and will have a second this summer?). Because he wants it at his own house? Crap, I say. crap!

Okay, so he might have valid points. That, however, does not put a jogging stroller in my parents garage in Falmouth! I'm thinking I may need to step up the Craig's List search. East Falmouth is not known for its smooth sidewalks and I need a jogging stroller down there to go for any type of walk.

And it WILL stop raining at some point this year. I can feel it. We will go outside again!
