It's Wednesday but...

I'm still going to do a late edition of 10 on Tuesday.

1. I could eat Zaxby's House Zalad's grilled with lite ranch every day!
2. I have a prayer request. My BIL's roomate tried to take his own life Monday night. He took 28 Xanex's. Thankfully he was unsuccessful, but now his mom is refusing to let him get psych treatment when he so desperately needs it. She only went down there Monday night, but left early Tuesday morning saying that she had a business to run. That stupid business is more important than her own son, who is desperately crying out for help. He is still in the hospital, or at least was last time we talked to Zach, which was late last night. I just feel so bad for him.
3. I had a double humiliation at the dollar tree today. I had to buy a new baby card for one of our friends and I went ahead and picked up a couple of pregnancy tests. I get up to the register and a man was the cashier. So I proceed to put my three items down and am going about my business. The man gives me the bag and I leave. I am halfway out to my car when the little old lady who was behind me in line stops me and asks me "Honey do you need me to go over to Wal-Mart with you and buy a real pregnancy test? I know it's scary to be in this position at your age, but don't worry plenty of young people have babies!" Um, what?? She then proceeds to say that she wouldn't trust a dollar tree pregnancy test. So I have to kindly tell the sweet little old lady that 1) I am not that young...I showed her my license, and 2) Thanks for the Wal-mart advice and yeah I know Dollar Tree tests probably aren't really that reliable, but what the heck it was a dollar.
Oh and FYI no I am not pregnant...yet...I was just buying those tests to take if I happen to have the urge to POAS way earlier than I should and I won't feel like I am throwing money down the drain.
4. I am kinda thinking we might make a trip to Auburn on Saturday. So of course I'll have to take Zach some brownies...aren't I a good sister in law?
5. Valentines day is in 10 days and I haven't a clue as to what to do for Wes.
6. Wes' dad has sold my little Alero...yay!! Now we are getting Wes a new (to him) car.
7. There are two movies coming out that I want to see....chick flicks all the way. Confessions of a Shopaholic and He's Just Not That Into You. Anyone want to go??
8. I'm hoping the tax fairy is good to us this year.

I know I got more but for some reason I'm blanking! So 8 will have to do! Happy hump day!

There is nothing wrong with using Dollar Tree HPT's to satisfy your urge to POAS. Lord knows I have my own stash. I rather pee till my heart's content & know that it's just $1, rather than $12 for one. You can always back them up with a brand name one!

LOL! Truth be told I found out we were expecting on a Dollar Store preg test that was atleast 2 years old. Like you said, it's a dollar and Monica is right, there's always a walmart run if the Dollar store one gives you an inkling to go get a "more reliable".

So sorry to hear about your BIL's roomate. I can only imagine how tough that is on your BIL as well.

Travel safely (and oh such a good SIL to tote the brownies)!

Hey, I'll take you up on the Confessions of a Shopaholic... I want to see it and I'm pretty sure there's no way in Hades John would go... Give me a hollar if you want to go!
