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!
~When decorating for the holidays this weekend, I realized that Christmas decorations (and all other holiday decorations for that matter) are taking over my basement. I have a zillion decorations and only use a fraction of them. Yet I keep them all because maybe, just maybe, I’ll want to do a red & silver theme or a red, white & green instead of the multi-color theme that I have going on right now. Tell me, when you get new decorations, do you quickly get rid of the old ones? Or do you keep them just in case?
~The Subscription Box List update is 75% complete and I am thrilled to (almost) be done. My goodness that was a project. I had no idea just how many bad links there were in there. Not closed boxes, but links that had been changed by sites from like www.myblog.com/monthlybox to www.myblog.com/monthly.box. Not HUGE changes, but still enough to give page errors which I am guessing people found super annoying! Sorry about that! Things should be all set by tonight!
~Umm, yeah. Has anyone gone on The Weather Channel’s website lately? What on earth is up with all those videos at the top? It’s like the National Enquirer took over. Last night I randomly went to check the weather and was confronted with images of a python who ate something big, a frostbitten ear, some monster bear that was captured and a sperm whale that “exploded”. Really? Come on. I just want to check the weather and not all this mess! Not a fan of these videos AT ALL.
~So I placed an order from Erin Condren on 11.8.13 which had an estimated ship date of 11.20.13. Yeah, guess what? It hasn’t shipped yet. WTF? I thought I’d have that in plenty of time of for the holidays, but now I am not so sure considering that once it does ship it will take at least a week to make it’s way across the country to me. I sent them an e-mail asking what was up but haven’t heard back (in all fairness I just sent the e-mail last night). If you’ve placed an order recently, has it shipped yet?
~And finally, B and I are going to Painting With A Twist on Friday night (big date night for us). For those who have been, what kind of snacks and drinks do you recommend bringing? We’ve never been and I don’t know if we will have time to have dinner first. How long does a painting session last? Will I be needing to bring something to keep my drinks cold? Help!
That’s it from here for now! What’s troubling you today?
