It's My

BIRTHDAY!

Black Day

It is a Black, Black Day at the Military Wife's house. The Gators lost to Ole Miss! That's twice this week that an unranked team has beat a ranked team in the top 5! The said part is they lost by 1 point, that's just heartbreaking. So their is not much talking going on just a bunch of moping around. C doesn't even know if he can watch the Georgia game tonight he is so upset. Oh well it will all be better next Saturday.

Argh!

eBay is so addictive! If I'm going to bid on an item I automatically know how high I'm going to go before I go into the auction. But that never works. I get so mad when someone bid's against me I bid higher. Its like a disease I do it everytime. I always say "I am NOT going higher than $15 on this item." By the time its all said and done with I have paid $30 for the item and another $10 on shipping. I think I am taking it personal, its almost as if I think they are doing it to make me mad. And then their are time I feel so bad for bidding higher I hope someone outbids me so I don't have to pay that much for the item. I guess I am just going to have to ban eBay from my computer so this problem is taken care of. Also so my husband stops looking at the checkbook and saying "What did you buy from eBay now that we couldn't live without?"

Fall Is Here

So it officially feels like fall outside. Today I had to go run some errands and I actually wore jeans and a sweater. Granted it is still 74 degrees here, but to me that feels chilly. Its normally in the upper 80s or lower 90s and extremely humid. I know a lot of people have it much cooler than I do and I should be grateful that I can actually go get the mail without breaking a sweat but I can't help thinking what comes after fall. The most dreaded season, Winter. Even though we don't get snow here it's cold and depressing. Don't get me wrong I love the holiday season, but it goes downhill after that. If I can make it through March I will be okay, it gets warm then. Okay sorry, rant for the day officially over.

BPA

As we all know their are many concerns over Bisphenol A or more commonly known as BPA. It is linked to heart disease, diabetes and there is some concern about it mimicking the hormone estrogen, which is linked to several other problems. It is found in many things we have around the house, including baby bottles. So I went to my cabinet and looked at all Princess P's bottles. We have several different kinds because she very rarely takes one. As I looked at all of the bottles I seen they had the number 7 stamped on them, which means it could contain BPA. One of the bottles we have is the Playtex Drop-Ins, while the bottle contains BPA the actual Drop-Ins themselves do not. So the milk does not come in contact with the BPA. And Playtex is offering a free Drop-In bottle per household if you want to try one. If you are curious to see which bottles and sippy cups are safe to use check out this really cool website I found Safe Mama it has lots of neat information.
