Monday, Monday...

So, today was the big day that we got to meet up with Doug and Kyan in Festus. Only downside is it was only I that got to see them. We got there 30 minutes early and, like clockwork, they were running behind. We spent 30 minutes or so walking around Joann's and admiring their amazing sale on no sew fleece throw -- 50% off!

If you're wondering, yes, we took advantage and spent more money than I care to admit.

Since we still had 45 minutes to spare before the boys arrived, we decided to head over to Walmart and do some shopping. We needed a few household items and some groceries, so we thought we could get that done before they even arrived. Well, since all the Christmas items were 50% off, that ended up occupying around 30 minutes of our time. It was no time before I got a message from Kyan telling me that they were at Joann's, waiting.

Since we had a cart full of stuff and weren't even in the market side, LaVaughn decided to stay with the cart and I would run over and meet the boys to deliver the girls. Not sure if you read my previous blog, but that's what today's meeting was all about -- Kyan is shipping two gliders for us Wednesday.

Anyways, I jetted over to Joann's, met up with the boys, walked around in there for 15 minutes while Kyan picked out fleece, went outside and talked for another 10 minutes, then sat in the back of their car and talked for an additional 30 minutes. I knew LaVaughn was probably steaming by then, so I quickly wrapped up our meeting and went back to the store.

It sucked to only get to see them for an hour -- I miss them so, so much. I'm hoping and praying Doug does get every Monday off soon. I have most Mondays off, so that would be a perfect day to meet up.

We quickly wrapped things up at Walmart and came home, which is where we are now. I'm exhausted and barely had the energy to feed the gliders, let alone myself. Now I need to rest and watch some Netflix, because we'll be back at it again tomorrow...

Off to Ohio...

LaVaughn and I met up with Christina in Arnold today to drop off our little TPM boy, Dale. He's getting shipped Friday to his new mama that lives all the way over in Ohio. I'm not okay with this, I already miss him like crazy. Not to mention he was a complete ANGEL all day and didn't make one peep. Even when I trimmed his nails. That is so not cool!

Since we decided to leave at 3, that left us nearly 4 hours to get there with loads of time to spare. We stopped off and Joann's to buy some fleece, but there wasn't really anything on sale, so we didn't stay there too long. We headed to Walmart after that and did some pretty heavy grocery shopping. We found so any different vegan meats, it was insane! Since this was all in Festus, guess where we're going to be shopping from now on?

I was pleasantly surprised when we got home, our Series 3 Walking Dead POP! Funko collectibles had arrived! I nearly forgot that I ordered them, so you can imagine how happy I was. Now we only need series 4 and 6 -- I'm SO on the hunt now!

Well I guess that's all for now. Time to play some Dying Light and enjoy the rest of the night...

Love & Peace

Pain in my heart...

It's been a long 4 days since my last blog. So much has taken place, yet so little. I'll start with Sunday, which was host to the main even of the past week. We -- when I say "we" I mean me -- met up with Connie at Joann's in Festus just after 4. Surprisingly enough, she was ahead of schedule! I handed over Marcus (now Momo) and stood with her for well over 30 minutes talking and waiting on Doug and Kyan.

Since she couldn't wait much longer, she decided to leave around 4:45.

I was burning up from standing out in the 90 degree heat for what seemed like an hour, so I jumped in the car and blasted the AC. I messaged Doug and Kyan for the next 5 minutes before they finally showed up -- almost 30 minutes late, I might add. As soon as they got there we jumped in the backseat and started trimming their gliders nails, which took no time. Their babies are so sweet, but 3 out of 4 of them came from us, so I didn't expect much less.

Doug played with all 4 joeys while we clipped nails, then we decided to head into Joann's 45 minutes before they closed. We walked around in there, talking and discussing fleece the entire time. Well, up until 10 minutes before they closed. They didn't have too many fleece sales going on, but they did have a massive sale on no-sew throws -- 60% off!! We ended up leaving with 4 throws and a pack of needles for $31. MAJOR steal! I had an additional 20% off coupon which helped lower the price even more. So unbelievably awesome!

We ended the day by standing out in the parking lot for 30 minutes or so. Mainly talking to Doug, Kyan was far too preoccupied with his phone, but that's nothing new.

It was a bittersweet day, despite the fact that it was a good day. I loved seeing the boys, meeting Connie, and shopping for fleece. Parting with the girls and Marcus is what was hard. They're in good hands, though, especially the girls.

Feeding the gliders was weird Sunday night. No 8th food dish, no extra food in Chloe and Boone's cage, it was weird. It was also weird to not hear the girls scream their heads off when I walked within 10 feet of their cage. It's sad, but I know it's for the best.

I tried to take a quick few pictures of the joeys Friday, which was a complete and utter fail! I took them with the "nifty fifty" inside of a harsh orange pouch and they just turned out awful! So awful that I'm not even going to bother uploading them here or on Facebook. Not to worry, I managed to take more today, some that are worth uploading.

Since we may be getting a BFBB boy, we're going to hang on to Kira and Logan's little girl, Elena. Of course, she'll be renamed if she stays here. Her brother is still available, as well as Charli and Tyler's little WTMO boy. I've had 3 different people interested in him, but nothing permanent. I always worry that they'll never find homes, but I guess that goes along with breeding.

I can't think of anything else right now. all I can think of is The Sims, which I'm currently trying to play. I'm a multitasking pro, I can do both. ;)

Love & Peace
