~Not too much is happening this week around here. B should be in town for a while, so we’ve just got the normal stuff going on. I am volunteering at L’s school now, so that should be fun and one day this week is Walk / Roll to school day which L is really excited about. Now that things have settled down, I need to get WB signed up for some classes. I am thinking swimming and gymnastics. Honestly he’d enjoy baby track & field more, but that’s not available for his age group.
~I am still behind on a bunch of subscription box reviews, but as for new boxes, I am expecting Wantable Accessories, Birchbox, Fabletics, Nicholas Black Box, Box of Blessings and Blind Surprise. Those are the ones that are on the way at least. I am sure there are more coming ;). I am really hoping for some October PopSugar spoilers this week too, but I don’t think anyone’s boxes have shipped yet, so we’ll see about that one.
~Is anyone planning to watch “Watch What Happens Live” tonight? Oh how I wish I had cable so I could watch this magic tonight. Seriously. Teresa and Joe in the Clubhouse? I can’t even imagine what they are going to say about their sentencing. There should be a viewing party for this somewhere! I can only hope this appears on iTunes tomorrow.
~It’s almost time to start Boo’ing the neighbors! I need to pick up some Halloween candy, but I think other than that, I have everything else for the baskets. I’m not totally sure who I am going to start with, but I am guessing L will want to Boo his neighborhood BFF and then we’ll pick one more house. I cannot wait!
~I know someone told me about this recently, but I finally downloaded the “MyVegas” app and I am obsessed. Its (free) online slots, but you earn real prizes in the form of Vegas comps like buffets, shows, rooms, etc. Uhh, sign me up. If you like to gamble (which I do) you already get comps based on your play and stuff, but MORE comps are even better. If you go to Vegas, you need to get this app. Stat.
~I watched the Little People Big World wedding last night and it was so beautiful. I want to go to a wedding like that! Or at least visit Roloff Farms. Does anyone live near there and has visited? Are the Roloff’s really there working all the time? Some of my relatives when to the Pawn Stars pawn shop while we were in Vegas and none of the guys on the show even work there anymore. Only when they are filming ;(. Anyway, it was a very pretty wedding and I hope they do a special for Zach’s wedding too!
What’s up for your Monday? Any big plans this week? And of course, what subscription boxes are you expecting?
So happy to hear you started playing MyVegas and love it! We’ve been playing for a couple years now and have gotten some great freebies! (I got my husband to play also, as you can only redeem 3 awards per trip, but between the two of us it saves a good amount of money.) To make your addiction even worse, there is another app just for playing blackjack that just came out last week and there is also the original version that you have to play on a laptop/decsktop computer through Facebook (it uses Flash which is why it must be on a computer). If you play all 3 versions you can maximize earning of the gold chips (Lps) and the gold chips sync across all of your devices (be sure to connect the apps to your facebook page). There is also a Facebook group called “Myvegas Friends Rocks” and they answer questions and offer advice on all of the game versions (just join the group, don’t follow the group as it fills your feed too much, I just read it when I need a question answered). I could go on and on… I love it! Good luck and happy spinning!
LOVE IT! I need to join that FB group stat!
Have you been charged for your October Popsugar box? I haven’t, but when I logged in it shows October as my next shipment and November as my next payment. Did they switch around payment schedules when they changed the website?
I really have no idea what is up with their new site. My account said the same. I can’t figure it out at all.
I’ve been to Roloff farms-the road to the farm and parking were CRAZY but we met Amy (and got her to talk to my mom on the phone!).
She seems really sweet.
I think today is the I’m turning a corner day. It’s been three weeks of sick and I think the antibiotics are finally working. I got today’s mail already and it included two new batteries for my blood checker. I think it’s awesome that they send you batteries as they’re the $12 each ones and they send Duracell. I also received a $25 giftcard from Bzzagent to try Sawmill Creek wines how awesome is that? Free Wine! I also received my Splendies with the replacement pair. I’m sticking close to the computer as it’s Golden Tote day!
Free wine? You are turning a corner today!
What did you have? My husband has this cough he just can’t shake!
Had gastroeneritis for two weeks & then got a kidney infection
Found out today I was on a med that was resistant to the bacteria – new antibiotic – more dr visits but free wine helps
It always helps 😉
I’m so all over WWHL. I can’t hear the excuses which are then followed up by but it’s all about family we love family we’re here for a family family family family we did it for a family. She is so dumb but I love her !!
“It is what it is”. How many times will he say that???
I cant wait for Popsugar spoilers and I’m getting Fabletics this week!! Has anyone heard when the Nina Garcia box will be shipping??
PA Anna says they are billing mid-October!
Okay yay cant wait!! Thanks!
A coworker visits the Roloff farm every time she goes to WA. She loves it. She has pics with some of the Family I can’t remember who but I remember thinking wow that’s fun. We went to the Pawn Shop about 4 yrs ago and we saw Chumley for a split second and then he was gone. And the line was insane just to walk through a silly store.
I would have went if those guys were there, but I wasn’t going to go just look!
Impatient for popsugar spoilers. Can’t decide if I want to get the box this month or next! I got it last month (love) but it is a bit pricey for every month – though if I stopped getting all the cheapy boxes (target and walmart) that I don’t even really want but can’t pass up – it would be the same!!!! Also – totally unrealted – any idea if there are ever quarterly co. codes for current subscribers?
I do think sometimes codes work for existing subscribers. Only on new boxes you haven’t subscribed to though? I know some people cancel and resub with codes too.
The Boo idea is cute. I might give it a try this year. Enjoy your time at the school and also at the preschool activities. I received 4 subscription boxes today. They are Jessica Comingore’s Quarterly box which I liked the review enough to email Quarterly to see if there were extras, a replacement The Fantasy Box, the eye pillow that should had been in my Escape Box, and Homegrown Collective. I received a shipment notification today from Dottie Box. I’m not sure if it is for the regular or mini. I have a subscription to the mini and ordered a one time October regular box. Green Kids Craft is coming and I am guessing Sample Society will show up this week too.
The Quarterly box shipped from WI, not CA. I read that NG’s box will bill in the middle of the month and the Instagram picture hinted at sparkles. Also The Fantasy Box is amazing. I received the wrong box on Saturday and still received a replacement box on Monday! The Fantasy Box is located in CA while I am in PA. Impressive.
Oh my, please let the NG box ship from WI too. I would get that so fast! I really hope that comes soon. I am so anxious to see it.
So I downloaded the MyVegas app even though I’ve only been to Vegas once years ago, BUT for a bajillion points you can get a free cruise! I have no problem playing constantly to eventually win a free or even a half off cruise! So now I’ve been playing for the past hour haha
I know right? I’ll take that cruise too! I am, ohh, like 2% there…..
Hi Jennifer- I live about 1/2 hour from the Roloff Farm. It’s even more beautiful in person. We visit every Fall during pumpkin season. The family is always there and they are so sweet and personable. :). If you ever make it to Oregon, let me know. I’d be happy to take you there and we can hit the Nike World campus on the way:).
Yes yes yes! A million times yes! I will for sure let you know. Take pictures when you go to the farm next! I want to see!
