IMO about the person who commented on your “brokeness”….You just moved and your minimal expense to “redecorate” is worth it. You’ve brought a different life into your home and have found happiness in the little things that you’ve added. You also sent off other good things to other families who will put them to good use. The mommy-hood life is a challenging one….it’s not like you’re spending hundred of dollars on hand bags or shoes! A simple 4.00 item here or there isn’t breaking the bank! Going to Target and spending $100 each time will. $8.00 flowers to bring cheery feelings home is worth it! Yes, that person did shine light onto your spending reality…..but you’ve chosen to be a stay at home mom when you can be earning a significant amount of money having a career……..so $100+ something is REALLY NOTHING!

Block that person going foward….sorry I’m ranting but I got a little ticked off by seeing that comment.

Cheers…

BTW, I was wondering if you started drinking now that you have a bar cart…

Me: You crack me up. My “trolls” are what make this blog so crazy. I tend to give serious reply once in a while because I feel that ohh what if the rest of the readers are thinking the same. You should have been here in Nov or something, when I had put a paypal button asking for donations. Then it was really crazy ..
And yes, I have been drinking more. I had 2 drinks last night. A gin sidecar and another gin something.YUMMA but bad for the weight

Never heard of that frog thing until now.

And I don’t have cut flowers in my house. Too lazy to throw them out when they die, will leave them to rot until moss and slime grow. So gave up.

I should ignore them but then thought what if other people think I am richy rich..So I thought I should throw out how I got some cash..Althought, NK was agreeing with tulips and said she is right. You are spending way too much. I did ask him whether he posted it

Did you go back to the GW?

Oh, good ideas. Except I have these heavy pieces of furniture which I want to paint – 2 bookcases, a file cabinet and small dressers. All impossible to be moved around because they’re heavy wood (I got the idea from a link you posted a while ago and in my dreams I see this beautiful ‘new’ painted furniture which actually matches the rest of my decor lol). I was just hoping there was some way I could do it in the apartment so I wouldnt suffocate myself with paint fumes and paint the rental’s walls in the process.

And ignore the trolls! You really dont need to justify yourself to them!!

Me:It would be impossible to escape the fumes.I was spray painting outside, and the smell was horrible. What about painting it instead of spray painting?

Oh, My…How Gorgeous everything looks!

Haven’t ever heard of the flower frogs..and you have special blessings from the Estate-Sale-Gods, am pakka sure

I have started imagining your house like a mini resort – all beautiful looking stuff..sparkling silverwares, smooth china, and now fresh heavenly flowers. Sigh!

Me: Sigh if only. Now imagine with 4 school bags, 4 lunch bags, scores of pencil, twenty thousand library books, forty thousand train and train tracks, multiple letters/flyers from the kids school, socks and chaddis.I should stop.
