Kicking myself right now....I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing and just withdrew my shop till. Now to start over for the last tier of the shop till achievement.

It is time consuming. When organizing items, I wish it would stay in the category I've selected after I update items, not go back to all items. Then halfway through a page, I realize I have enough items to lump together in a new drawer so I have to go make the drawer then find those items back.

I know I don't, it just would have been easier because I was on SubetaLodge at the start of the holiday looking at all the new pirate items for this year . It would have saved me time. I haven't filled my last pet slot yet. I was going to adopt a pet, but the adoption center has been empty for the past few days so I'll have to create a pet and figure out a name for it.

Last day for the pirate shop. Guess that's a good thing since it's frustrating instead of fun. Still haven't even seen the couple items I want most. Stupid shop. Next is Morostide in a few weeks. :D

I am thinking about a blob too, but there are so many cute ones to choose from! I would love a minion zapper :D

Same for me too. The controls just seem off somehow! I didn't know they had a Pirates game. I need to look up all of the lego games. We have a lot of fun with them.

I could just add the last pet for the new slot and use it for zapping until I decide what I want it to be or they finally release a chibi blob or scootle. Problem is deciding on just the right name. And that will give me the achievement, so I would be putting 10 of my current pets up for adoption then. Is everybody getting all the pirate stuff they need/want? I still need a couple of the backdrops that never show up in the shop. And my HA is again jumping back and forth from old to new.

The controls feel even worse when my character is running out of air and I need to get to the surface quick. I always end up diving further down before I start swimming up, which only causes me to panic more. I didn't know there was a Lego Pirates game either until I saw it at Gamestop one day. I waited until I found one with the original case (I'm picky about that). There's also a Lego Incredibles game and one for the new Jurassic Parks movies, I haven't tried either of them. I was kinda hoping they would release one for Fantastic Beasts, but it seems like that will only be available in Lego Dimensions, unless they do one after all the movies have been released.

The chibi blob was released today

Yeah I just got home and saw that. Not nearly as cute as expected so maybe I'll wait for a chibi scootle. (And why does some idiot keep pricing a 40 million SP item at 3. Grrr.)

I haven't played many of the Lego games. I got Lego marvel super heroes a few weeks ago for the Wii U, and contemplated grabbing the latest Lego Stars Wars game but decided to wait a bit. I'd love a stand-alone fantastic beasts game. It would complete my collection of Harry Potter universe video games. Of course, I'd also take a video game that allows us to create our own Hogwarts student, go through seven years of school and start a career in the magical world. Lego Dimensions is sort of like Disney Infinity,where you have a base that you plug into your system,and you place the characters you want use on the base. However, in Dimensions you have to solve puzzles with the base. The game has a bunch of universes in it, like Batman, the Simpsons, Lord of the Rings, Fantastic Beasts, Ghost Busters, etc. There is a main storyline that has you rebuild the base (I haven't finished it yet), and then additional stories that you have to buy sets for. It's pretty much a cash grab, unless you buy everything on sale.

I think the lego games are my faves! We finally figured out that we can use the ps4 controller with the ps3 lol. Now we can play our old Spyro games until the new one comes out for the ps4. Can't wait to see all the new graphics! I got suckered into that infinity game :( spent too much money on it and ended up not liking it that much. I will just stick to buying games.

I enjoy the lego games too. I need to get more of them because they are relaxing games to play. I did not know that PS4 controllers worked on the PS3. Good to know, incase either of my PS3 controllers kick the bucket (they already have a lower battery life.

I tried infinity, only because I found the starter set at Goodwill (I wasn't going to pay full price for it). My husband and I weren't too impressed with it because the stories we wanted to play could only be unlocked with the specific characters and we didn't want to spend more money. I ended up trading it in at Gamestop. I don't think Lego Dimensions did very well anyway because I haven't heard anything about new releases for it. I mean, who wants to spend $30 on a story set for every one they want to play. I know that the Ghostbusters and Fantastic Beasts sets, as well as additional characters, have been on clearance at Gamestop for most of the year. I don't think the game is even displayed at Gamestop anymore...not sure about Walmart. I bought Dimensions on Black Friday when it was on sale....only to find out that the Wii U version was on sale, not the PS4 version, but the employees at Gamestop gave me the sale price anyway since it wasn't clear in the sale flyer. I'm really hoping a Lego Fantastic Beasts is released. It would be such a fun game to play...run around a niffler and collect all the money.

So a couple days ago on Facebook, Shinedown posted their upcoming tour dates. They have a concert 2 hours away from where I live, 2 days after my birthday. Thing is I don't think my husband will be home from his deployment by then...and if I went by myself, I'd probably be crying through their show (we played 4 of their songs during our wedding and reception).

I'm waiting for some more colors to be released for the Scootle before I decide what to color mine.

I'm still waiting to find a good name for my last pet and will use it for zapping for a while. Just can't think of a good name. Was disappointed in the chibi blob and waiting for a chibi scootle.

Long time no chat - I was popping in to see how everyone was.

First, I hope everyone got something great from the token shop! I saw you - got the EMF reader. I thought about snagging it because it was fetching such a high price, but then opted for the kitten shirt instead because... well I love cats in every form. Have you decided what to do with it? I bet you could make some spectacular Motrorside HAs with it!

Also, the kitten item from the collection almost made me cry! My cat curls up at my feet like that all the time and she's a tabby like the one shown. feelings

I do hope you're doing well. Still thinking of you with your husband being away <3


I got the new Mario Party game and I'm trying to decide how I feel about it. The games are much more simple than the previous games (I assume due to the use of the small switch controllers). The boards are much smaller and the gameplay works the same but has a few major changes. Overall, I think I like it. It's just different and taking me some getting used to.

I'm overly excited for the Pokemon Lets go Eevee and Lets go Pikachu to come out next month. (Anyone else a Pokemon - and Pokemon Go fan??) I have been anxiously awaiting a new pokemon game. I played Pokemon Sun and Moon last and they weren't bad, but I wasn't a fan of the story line or new pokémon in that game. There was way too much dialogue for me to even enjoy the game ... I love a little bit... but this one went way too long and I lost interest in reading what the characters had to say.

Super Smash also comes out very soon for the switch and I intend to throw a huge party at my house when that one comes out. I thought it wasn't coming out until March, but i recently saw it got moved back to Dec???

We have been wanting to play the ps3 for a while now, but I was not willing to buy new controllers. Emily found out by looking it up online. I never even thought of it lol. I figured they wouldn't make controllers that were compatable with an older version just to make us buy new ones. I love relaxing games most of the time. Except the spyro 3 snowboarding race is driving me nuts right now!!!!! Yeah some of those things are way too expensive. Now you can get those little figures dirt cheap but there isn't much point unless you just want them as a collectible. Awe Hun hugs I am sure it must be tough. Any way of knowing when he will be home or is it just almost a last minute thing?

Hey and Hi :D I totally missed the TS. I am pretty sure I have all the stuff I want from it already thankfullly.

OMG when I was typing a spider dropped right on my keyboard! Scared the holy crap outta me! I HATE spiders :(

Ah! I would have died. The other day, I was laying on the ground painting my nails and a HUGE SPIDER crawled right in front of my face. I have never jumped up so quickly in my life.

Spent most of my day cleaning the house. Fall is definitely here because bugs are showing up.

I still need to come up with a name for a new pet and make one so I can start zapping.

I'm doing alright. Every now and then I get stressed out (like a couple days ago I broke a window on the screen door when 3 wasps flew in my face, then stressed out about the broken window). Some nights I have nightmares (2 so far involved my husband dying). Shinedown announced their next tour and one of their stops is 2 hours away from where I live, 2 days after my birthday. Tickets are still pretty cheap, but I'm pretty sure my husband won't be home and it wouldn't be the same to go without him. My mother-in-law has kind of gotten on my nerves lately. She wants me to go to my brother-in-laws graduation from the police academy, but its a two hour drive for me and I wasn't given an address. Then there's a surprise birthday party for my husband's grandpa at the end of the month, but again it's two hours away and I don't have an address or starting time. I did ask my husband if he could make the suggestion to his mom that she send the occasional card or something to me instead of always sending a Facebook message.

I've been debating if I want to buy the Pokemon Let's Go Switch package when it comes out. I've love to have a Switch with Pikachu on it, but I'm still on the fence about the game. It sounds fun and maybe I'm just being overly tight with money. The last Pokemon game I played was X and Y. I've been wanted to try out the Detective Pikachu game, just keep forgetting to look at it at Gamestop. I'm excited for the Animal Crossing game for the Switch that's set to release in 2019 sometime. That's excited the Super Smash is getting released sooner. Hopefully, it will be a good game at release and not something that was rushed to be out sooner (sort of like what happened to Mass Effect Andromeda). I've only played Smash Bros on the Gamecube and I always end up mashing buttons and shocking everyone with Pikachu.

I hate spiders. I don't care if they eat other bugs in the house, they come into my personal space, they get smooshed.

I never would have guessed that they would work with the PS3. I would've assumed as well that playstation would have made them incompatible with the older systems so that people had to buy new ones. My PS3 controllers used to hold a full charge really well, but now they pretty much live on the charger. Relaxing games are great for when I'm stressed out. I've tried playing games like Shadow of Mordor or Shadow of War when I'm stressed and that just made me more stressed. Katamari Fever is a pretty relaxing game, unless you get to a timed level then it's not so relaxing. I'm playing Assassin's Creed Origins right now. It's not too bad yet, but their are some places I have to avoid because I'm low leveled. Gamestop sometimes has the Infinity figures and they are always less that a dollar. If I found a Jack Sparrow one, I'd probably buy it just to sit on a shelf. Amiibos are expensive too, unless they are on clearance. I'm trying to collect all the Animal Crossing amiibos. There are four more that I need and I'll have that collection done, then I'll look for Pikachu and some of the Legend of Zelda amiibos. My nephew used to play Skylanders (I don't know if he still does), and that game requires all the little figures as well. It's a great way for a video game to make money, until people get tired of spending money all the time on little accessories.

I haven't the foggiest idea of when he'll be home. He's told me 3 different months that he could be home, his unit has said a different much later month and the battalion FRG (family readiness group) posted a picture on Facebook that gave a different time. With the way the battalion FRG has been passing along information (weeks to over a month late), I'll be lucky if I get enough notice to pick him up when he gets back. I would hope that sometime in the last month of this deployment, I would get a semi-set in stone date of when they return. The homecoming date could get pushed back though if people share it when they shouldn't, so I've told my husband to only tell me the homecoming date because his parents like to share everything on Facebook. It also didn't help any that when I messaged my husband the concert date, he said he could be back by then.

I would have freaked if a spider landed on my keyboard. Last night I was hanging things up in a closet upstairs when a spider started crawling down a sleeve. Last week I found a dead snake in the cellar, luckily it was a garden snake. And a few months ago I had large scorpion waltz across the floor like it owned the place. Whacked it with a book 5 times, didn't phase it. Stomped it twice with a shoe and finally killed it.

Me too. Thinking of a good name is the hardest part. And my HA is still going back and forth between current and previous. Annoying. Wonder if they will ever fix stargazer.

I have a fantasy name generator app on my phone that I might use to create a name. I think this new pet will eventually become a storm ontra once I'm done zapping.
