I have never been interested in that show. No particular reason, but it just never peaked my interest. Yeah I doubt we will see the new Mary either. The one we are really looking forward to is Lion King! Emily is obsessed with it. A few years ago I was happy that I was able to take her to see the original on the big screen :D she obviously missed it the first time around since she hadn't been born yet lol. Yes a few of the items do seem bleh and outdated now, Especially since there are so many great CWs that make them look frumpy or whatever. I love that whole "not going to allow him" thing. How was she going to stop him? Her regrets are her own and should not be put off on her kids. I keep saying I want to get a fryer. I just haven't gotten around to getting one. I need a bunch of new kitchen stuff. Books are expensive! We have a library, but it seems like every book I can think of or want is never there. It isn't checked out or anything. They just never had it. I know it is a small library, but they seriously need more books! Awe :( sorry the weather is affecting your money and stuff. That sux!

Sorry I've been mia....Chris's computer was having some issues and my laptop is too slow for me to want to sit in front of it for too long. Fixed the computer issue today (HDMI port must have crapped out on the TV), but there are still other things that are stressing me out. I've never been interested in that show either and I don't really have a reason, except that I maybe hadn't been impressed by some of the other shows Netflix produced. There are a few shows produced by Amazon that I want to watch, like The Man in the High Castle. If the new Mary Poppins gets added to Netflix, I might watch it, but I just can't get past the fact that it isn't Julie Andrews. I'm looking forward to the Detective Pikachu movie, mostly for Ryan Reynolds. Chris should hopefully be home before that movie is in theaters....hopefully. I like Lion King, but I always cry when Mufasa dies. I don't remember what some of them were, but I'm sure I could go through my wishlist and find more older items that I no longer like due to the old art. I think we've gotten spoiled with CWs and the newer art style that's been used. I just remember thinking 'wow! you're really going to try and tell your son what he should do with his relationship?" Chris and I dated for almost 4 years before he proposed and I wasn't too happy it took that long. I only date a person if I can see myself staying with them for the long run, but I didn't want that to include years and years of dating. I agree, her parents divorced when she was in high school and she didn't get along with her step mother and once kicked out of the house. So she spent most of her time with her husband and then they got married when they were 20 (I think) and had Chris when they were both 21. I has a really small fryer that has enough room to do a large handful of fries. My mom found a larger one at a thrift store that had never been used and got it for me. The only problem is, it's bigger so it takes up more counter space. They are crazy expensive. The illustrated Harry Potter books are $40 each. I keep forgetting to fill out an application so that I can get a library card. I did find an app for my phone called Libby, that lets you check out audio and ebooks on your phone from your local library if you have a library card. Haven't really tried it out yet because I don't have a library card. It does, and I also ran out of checks for Chris's checking account last week (stupid me forget to double check how many were left), so I haven't been able to get myself the bi-monthly allowance (I'm almost broke after buying fabric for a quilt for Chris). It also meant that I couldn't pay the trash bill, but my dad paid that for me (just have to pay him back). The checks I ordered arrived this afternoon but they didn't have my name on them so I'm not sure if I can actually use them. Chris says I should be able to since I have power of attorney, so I guess I'll find out when I write a check......I've been so stressed out lately it's giving me stomach issues, the wake up at 1 or 3 in the morning feeling like I'm being stabbed kind of stomach pain....which then leads to more sleep deprivation.

No worries Hun hugs glad you got it sorted out! I love Ryan :D I still need to see deadpool 2. Det Pikachu does look good. I am surprised by that lol. I always cry at that part too. Yeah the newer items deff look a lot better than the older ones! Both of you knew when it was time to get married and live your own lives. She can't fix her past by controlling your future. Ok I need to stop writing like a fortune cookie or something lmao! I want to get those for Emily. Just for her to have. Oh Hun that sounds terrible. You should see a doc and see if they can give you something to help you relax when you feel too stressed.

I'm glad I got it figured out too, otherwise I wouldn't be able to pay the internet bill online. Just glad it wasn't the graphics card. I need to rewatch both Deadpool movies and watch Once Upon a Deadpool. I haven't watched many movies with Ryan Reynolds, but the ones I have seen have been pretty good. I hope Det. Pikachu ends up being a good movie. I haven't played the video game yet (mostly because the voice for Pikachu is creepy), but maybe one day I'll break down and buy the game. I cry during a lot of movies whenever anything sad happens. It's great when I need to get emotions out, but not great when I'm trying to do something while watching a movie. They do. I know I've come across some items in my vault that had older art that got updated and it was like I got a new item because I didn't recognize it. Then I come across an older item on my wishlist and just ask myself just what was it I liked about that item years ago. I was ready before Chris was, he wanted me to have a full time job before he would propose (hard to find in a large college town). I also eventually gave Chris an ultimatum of needing to propose before the end of the year, mostly because my grandmother wasn't doing well. I think she regrets that she only got an associate's degree, yet she'd rather stay home so she can bake and sew.....so I don't know what good more education would have done to help with that. I guess what gets me is that I never once heard her say anything to her middle son about him moving in with his wife after they had only dated for a few months, and she never told him anything about don't get married at this age. I want the Illustrated HP books too but I just can't justify spending $40 per book. I did find a Redwall graphic novel on thriftbooks, so I ordered one to see what it's like. Maybe I should, but most of the doctors around here aren't that great at figuring out what's wrong, but they do a great job of making you feel like an idiot when you go in. I think the best thing for me would just be to have a pet that can recognize when I'm getting too stressed out/overwhelmed and distract me. Chris's dog is just too hyper, but if you alert her to a potential threat, she zeros in and growls.

I love being able to pay bills online. It makes it so much easier. I hope it is good too. Emily wants to see it. We might wait for the DVD. For me the worst thing is eating when watching a sad moment. Crying and eating are two things you should not do together lol. Some items I wish they had left alone. Like all of the Keith items. I really liked those. Maybe she figured it wouldn't do any good to tell the middle son anything since Chris didn't listen. Maybe? No clue. She sounds like she is all over the place most of the time, High maintenance lol. Yeah that is a lot of money. I might get her one a month or every other month. Deff not all at once. You need a calm animal that will just curl up in your lap and make you feel better. Maybe get a chubby. lazy cat that just wants to sleep on you :D

It does, but some of my bills add an additional charge if I pay them online that makes it the same as if I was paying the late fee. I think my water bill does that but I don't remember if the electric bill does that too. I watched Deathly Hallows Pt 1 in theaters and I'm glad the theater was relatively empty because I cried when Dobby died. I sometime get something to eat while watching a movie, but mainly I just get something to drink. Agreed, crying and eating shouldn't be done together because sometimes you end up eating more than you should because you are sad. I have a feeling that when Chris comes home, we might end up watching a few of the movies he missed out on while he was gone, but hopefully he's back before Det. Pikachu is in theaters. The only item I have left on my wishlist that I wish would get a revamp would be the Ethereal Nymph line. I did get a Keith item from a quest the other day and I didn't recognize it...maybe that was one that got a revamp. She's been pampered by her husband, he's opens the doors for her, does most of the cooking if not all of it, if she isn't feeling well he gets her everything she needs. They raised two of their sons to always open doors for their S.O. (to the point that the lady shouldn't even touch the door), pulling out chairs. etc., which I don't exactly have a problem with however I never expect a guy to do that for me because I've always had to do it myself. If I guy held a door open for me in college, it was always nice, however I've had a guy hold a door open and wait for me to get there even though I was over 10 paces behind him and I've had another guy pass me to open the door for me. Have they released the 4th one yet? I know they released the 3rd one a couple years ago but I haven't really been following the released dates for the others. I do. I was hoping my kitten would calm down but he only seems to do that late in the evening when I'm playing video games. There were a few nights where he would spend the whole night next to my pillow but most of the time he wakes up every 3 hours to terrorize something. However there was one day that I slept on the floor because I had a headache and my kitten slept with me. I haven't heard of that game. I probably won't get it because I haven't watched any of the shows involved, but it looks like it could be a good game. I think I'm done preordering games until the Animal Crossing game for the switch is released or the Dragon Age 4 game, whichever one comes first. I love the little mouse in your HA! It's really cute :)

Well that is dumb. It should be more convenient for them too. I did too, and that suprised me. I am sorry to say I was not his biggest fan, but I did not want him to die. I always have to have popcorn when I am at the theater. I love the whole movie going experience :D When is that one coming out? I totally forgot. Summer maybe? Yeah that line is a little dated :( it deff needs a good revamp. Then I am not really sure what her problem is. So confusing. I hate when someone holds the door open for me and I am a little far away. I feel like I have to rush to get through the door. I actually have no idea. I thought they were a little old and they were all released. Never thought about it. I guess I need to do some research lol. Maybe he will calm down when he gets a little older and lazier :D I am going to try to preorder when I pick up KH3 tomorrow. She is supposed to get some codes for exclusive items for preordering. Thanks :) I think he is the perfect size to fit right in there.

I agree it is dumb. When I lived in town, Chris and I paid all our bills online and never had an additional charge. It was just so much easier. But now, I can only pay one online to avoid paying more money. It would be nice if I could do that with all and save money on stamps. I was not Dobby's biggest fan in the second book, but by the end, I liked him a little better. I didn't cry when Cedric died, but when Dumbledore, Sirius, Lupin, Fred, and Snape died I cried. I'm rather picky about popcorn, it has to be buttery and salty and most theater popcorn I've had is lacking that flavor. Sometimes I'll get chocolate or candy, but Chris and I always watch a movie after we've eaten. Google says Det. Pikachu is coming out May 9....and a sequel is in the works. I have one item from that line in my wishlist. 😢 I think I removed the others because they just wouldn't work with anything I have in my wardrobe now. I'm not sure either and I hate to think what she will be like when Chris and I have kids. o.O That's how I felt when that guy did that. In my mind, I kept saying "don't hold the door open and wait for me" but that's exactly what he did, so I had to walk faster. And it wasn't like there were a bunch of other people walking towards the door either, it was just me. I looked online and the 4th book hasn't been released yet, but you can buy the first 3 illustrated books in a boxed set for $109 o.O on Amazon....or buy the books individually for $22 to $25 on Amazon. They are constantly rereleasing the series with new covers. I know on the 20th anniversary of each book, they've released it with 4 new cover designs, one for each house. I hope so. He'll take a nap in my lap for 10 to 15 minutes then go back to being crazy. And Chris's dog is just over a year old and she hasn't calmed down much either. I had to hold her down and repeatedly tell her to calm down before I could trim her nails and work on her commands. I'm not looking forward to my hour-long drive tomorrow to pick up KH3, then an hour drive back home. I probably won't play KH3 right away since I still need to finish the earlier games in the series and finish my current playthrough of Dragon Age: Inquisition. You're welcome :) It's super cute. Is it a CW?

I would be behind on all my bills if I had to mail them in. I put off everything so much :( I didn't cry when Cedric died, but his dad made me cry. I always cry when he starts screaming "That's my boy". Gets me every time! I cried for all of them too :( still bummed she killed off one of the twins. Does not seem right at all! We always go to the same theater and we love the popcorn there :D oh cool. I will put it on the calendar. Maybe she will calm down? You can always hope! I might wait and see what they have when all the books are released and get the full set at once. Maybe. I can't wait to get a cat. Emily wants one so badly. We are playing it right now :D It was a pain in the butt to get. The weather here is horrible! It is going to be below freezing the next few days. I am not leaving the house! Not a CW :) It is the Tiny Violin. Notes: Obtained by defeating the Friendly Thursday challenger Johannes 5 times in the Battle Coliseum

It should give you a loyalty box in your inventory that you can open and choose one of the options. If you're not sure what you want to choose yet, you don't have to pick one right away, just go back to the item in your inventory and you can place it in your vault until you decide, so you don't accidentally lose it or something.

I usually end up choosing the 3 month gold account, although my last loyalty box I got I still have in my vault because I haven't made up my mind yet lol. I might end up using it over the summer, but who knows. I'll have another by then too so I need to figure it out. At least they don't have an expiration date or anything, so you can make up your mind whenever you feel like. :)

good to know about no expiration date. I might want a custom pet overlay but I don't know if I choose the option if I have to submit the art right away or not. 3 month gold might be good but not the best since I find it stressful trying to do more quests.

I try to pay bills right away so I don't have to worry about them. Because if I don't pay them as soon as I get them, I'll forget about them and be in trouble. None of the bills I get are due on the same day. One is due on the 10th, one of the 25th, one on the 30th, and one might be due the 24th or 26th. I'm sure if I rewatched the movies now, there would be more times where I would cry during the movie since it seems like I start crying at anything remotely sad now (possibly due to Chris being gone). I wasn't happy that she killed off one of the twins either. I understand it was a battle and some favorite characters might die, but Rowling didn't have to kill off a whole bunch of favorites. I still haven't been to the local movie theater to try their popcorn. One of my friends says they have a counter full of different flavorings you can put on the popcorn. I hope so, but I have a feeling we'll get pestered about when she can see the grandkids. I posted on Facebook about how difficult the deployment has been and included a picture that says it feels like its January 74th. She sent me a text saying she was sorry it has been so hard and she wished she could make it easier, that once Chris is home it will be worth it in the end and that she's been praying for me every day. I didn't even respond, just deleted the text right away. I'm sorry but just because I get Chris back in the end, it doesn't make it worth it to go through all the problems I've had to deal with. I might wait and do that too. Right now I don't really have any more room on my shelf that holds my other Harry Potter books, so I'd either have to rearrange or start a new shelf. I had wanted a pet when Chris and I were living in town, but it either wasn't allowed at the places we lived at or it was really expensive. I'm glad I have one now because at least I have something to make me smile when I get home. Last night Zelda just wanted to be held and given hugs. I picked up my copy yesterday and was asked why I didn't pick it up Monday night. Um...I live an hour away and there were strong wind gusts?... I got it installed last night, but I should probably finish the other games in the series before I start this one. We're supposed to get the below-freezing temps too, but nowhere near as bad as up north. Ah...I have him unlocked but my battle pet is nowhere near ready to fight him. I don't think Spirill would even leave a mark. Thanks for sending me one :) Last night I went to a basketball game with two friends and when I got home I discovered I was having another allergic reaction. 😢 I was already tired, but I had to stay up for a while to make sure it didn't get any worse. The forums have been having issues. Two of my posts earlier today took almost 40 minutes to show up.

Congratulations! I'm so happy for you! 😀

I always pay them at the end of the month. That way they all get paid at once for the next month. Yeah I get it too, but it still sux. She just bumped off too many :( Our theater has butter or nothing lol. Sorry Hun hugs. I probably would have wanted to delete it, but I get paranoid about how people will react. Not that I have Facebook or anything. We can have a cat here, but so far the timing has never been right. Either I don't have the money or the pet shop doesn't have any kittens :( The game is amazing!!!! There are so many new things and there are a few things that were brought over from the previous games. Even something from Dream Drop Distance :D The only thing I will say is the cut scenes are REALLY long. I think Emily has gone through 3 worlds and she started playing it Monday night. It is freezing here. I had to turn on the oven to get a little warmth. Welcome Hun :D the little mouse is so cute! Oh no! I hope you are feeling better now! It is crazy. Hopefully they can get it all fixed some day. The forums are pretty much dying so they really don't need them to die completely.

I wish all of the bills I have to pay were due at the end of the month. It would make it so much easier, instead of having to remember 4 different days. Hedwig's death I could kind of understand, but it was kind of excessive to kill off that many known characters....this isn't Game of Thrones. I'm not sure what the toppings are like at the local theater, if they are mixed in with butter or if they are a seasoning that gets sprinkled on top. I have a gift certificate that I need to use there soon. I've only posted things are Facebook about the deployment when I'm really frustrated with some people (mainly the in-laws) and how it seems like they have no regard for what others might be going through. If I had been in a worse mood when I received the text from my mother-in-law, I would have told her that her praying for me only makes her feel better and it does nothing for me. 😢 Are there any people that foster kittens in the area? You might be able to adopt one that way. I looked through the art book that came with the deluxe edition and I think its really cool how Sora, Donald and Goofy change depending on the world they are in. I did see (haven't watched it) a video about the cutscenes and how long they are. I just need to figure out if I want to finish AC Odyssey before I work on KH again or if I just want to start working on KH again. I was tempted to put another blanket on my bed last night and I didn't turn the fan on either (the noise helps me sleep). He is! I just have to figure out how to work him into an outfit. Maybe he could be my HA's personal bard, playing theme tunes as she travels the world. I am feeling better now. I slept in this morning since I ended up staying up late last night. I only had red bumps on my cheeks but they were spreading down to my chin. I agree. It seems like they have fixed the lag that has been happening since the end of November and hopefully they can get all the forum issues straightened out too.
