It’s time for another edition of Tuesday Troubles. I’ve said it before, but this should be named “things i’m annoyed / confused / want to complain about”, however I couldn’t figure out how to make any of those into a snappy title, so Tuesday Troubles it is. And yes, I do realize that these aren’t true “troubles”. I know that many of these for sure could be defined as first world problems!
~Okay, so B and I were talking about this the other day and we cannot figure it out for the life of us. Why on earth do sporting events start at such random times? Game time 7:08pm. Kick-off 1:16pm. Random? I’m assuming it has something to do with television schedules and that the announcer dudes need to come on tv and talk about the game for 10 minutes or so and then things can really start. But why don’t they do it like the movies and pick a nice even time to start. Everyone knows it really won’t start at that time, but it looks nicer on paper.
~How do you clean a stroller that doesn’t have the cloth parts that detach? We have a white (WTF was I thinking) Maclaren Volo and it’s a hot mess. Like for reals. It’s awful. But it’s totally fine otherwise so I don’t want to trash it. It’s been checked on countless plane rides, thrown in the back of our cars and basically just roughed up for the last 5 years and it’s handled it like a champ. It’s just dirty. Do I take bleach to this thing? What do I do? It’s embarrassing to walk around with this thing because it give the appearance that clearly I do not love my children enough to have a clean stroller.
~I’ve been mentioning how I have been picking up (and trading for) Christmas gifts lately, which is awesome because it’s going to save me a ton of time around the holidays. Only, umm, it’s driving me nuts to wait to give people their gifts! I want to do it NOW! Is anyone else like that?
~I know that tons of people love Diapers.com / Soap.com / Yoyo.com, etc., but I’ve never really gotten into it. Tell me what I’m missing! Is everything super cheap? Are there great coupon codes? Or is it just flat out more convinient?
~And finally, do I need an iPad? I used to have one and used it until L basically overtook it years ago and now I have nothing ;(. Lately I’ve been feeling like I *need* one. Do I? What do you use yours for?
That’s it from here for now! What’s troubling you today?
