Tuesday’s Troubles

It’s time for another edition of Tuesday Troubles. I’ve said it before (like every week), 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!

~Facebook. So I will be on the Disney website looking at hotels. Or at Staples looking at pens. And then what pops up as ads in my Facebook feed next time I go on there? Disney stuff and office supplies. Seriously, how do they know? Do I even want to know how they know? It’s totally creepy. Yet of course, it won’t stop me from using Facebook.

~I am totally stumped on a Valentine’s Day gift for my husband (he only reads the posts that have his initials in them, so hopefully he will skip by this one). I did a watch for Christmas. He gets lots of subscription boxes already and has the all ties he could ever need. It doesn’t have to be anything big or fancy, but I’d like to get him something to open. Thoughts? Ideas?  Is a spa day lame?  I think he’d be all over that, but is it the way way out?  Ahhh!! What are you getting the guy in your life?

~So on one of the deals sites (and elsewhere I guess) I go on, every once in a while I will come across a post with someone referencing themselves in the third person.  “crazydealshopper got a great deal today at WalMart”.  I do not get this AT ALL.  It’d be like me saying “Ramblings of a Suburban Mom likes this box” instead of “I like this box”.  Why why why???   I can’t stand it when I hear people doing it when they talk, but seeing it typed out drives me even crazier.  Ramblings of a Suburban Mom does NOT get this at all (*). Ahhhhhh!!!  So annoying.

~So I’ve been doing some thinking about the Subscription Box List and what to do with old boxes that are no longer in business.  I have been leaving them on the list(s) and crossing them off, but there are getting to be so many that I just don’t know about that plan anymore.  I am thinking about maybe moving them in their own category, like Closed Boxes or something along those lines.  Would that make the list any easier to maneuver?  Any other ideas?  I don’t want to get rid of them totally but I am not sure the current system is working anymore.

~I’ve been to Disney many times, but you all had such amazing dining recommendations for me yesterday for places I have never heard of, so I want to know more!  Tell what is the ONE thing I must do / see at Disney World.  It can be a place to eat, a ride to go on, a snack to have, a great place to take a picture, some super secret something, anything!  I cannot wait to hear these!!!

That’s it from here for now! What’s troubling you today? Is your area getting hit with this crazy weather that seems to be sweeping the country? L’s got another day off today (it’s so flipping cold out) so have some more (indoor) Snow Day fun today!!!

(*) That was a joke!!! I would never refer to myself in the third person and certainly never by the name of my blog!
