the dumping garden (Page 10)

If i get a compliment on something i love telling people where i got it from and even how much i paid for it.

I love thrift stores, but Ill admit that i dont look thru the clothes because a) im lazy b) Im usually convinced i can beat their prices smh lol. I like looking at their handbags, books, and appliances.

Ya know, one of fav outfit was one i paid $ 21 for. $ 14(jeans) $ 2.50(shirt) $ 5(flats). Maybe one day we can post pics of ourselves in our outfits we paid a whole lot less for. That would inspire me to spend even less lol.

You know, I think thrift store shopping is a cap thing. We can't resist a good deal! and proud of finding those good deals! lol!

I can't afford full price on the brands I like, but I can afford those brands at a thrift store. Its all about quality. If you buy something trendy at Wal-mart, for example, it falls apart after a couple of washings, but quality made items with quality fabric can be classic and will last a long time.

Shopping IS a sport, afterall! 🙂

I don't think so. I would never shop at a thrift store but more power to you for saving a buck.

being a woman is expensive

So is having a wife or girlfriend.

life is full of more double standards that we openly accept without realizing most of the time.

Just heard on the radio that a woman in Olkahoma got a $ 2500 fine because her 3 year old urinated in their own yard by a bush. Ticket was for public urination. Someone called and complained. Can you believe that—

I know it's not ideal, but I raised a son and 3 year old boys just do that when they first potty train. Mine said he was giving the ants a drink. hahaha! (plus being in the country didn't help).

ROFL @ giving the ants a drink !!!!!

i think i have rls. or i just cant stay still for very long, my body hates it. hate.

or my conscience dislikes that it's friday night and i decided to stay in. even though i've been out 4 nights since last sunday.

i think i rebel against a bedtime before 1am. whether i desperately need it or not.

the worst part of all of it is i do realize how dumb this is... i should be taking care of my body. -_-


ARGHHH!H!!!!!!!! I feel so obligated to giving up all my spare time!!!!! even if it's time i should be sleeeeeepinnng!!!!

i have no control 😢

and merc retrograde is wreaking papercut and hangnail havoc on my hands. THIS must be why horoscopes say cappies should try to paper push less during merc retrograde!!!!! it has nothing to do with business moves. it's about lacerating yourself!

...there is no amount of lotion i can slather on. my middle finger has literally been hurting all day. all day!

Awww, my mommy called up her Cap ex to talk about her newest relationship thats basically no more, and to tell him he laid the foundation and raised bar and now she just cant accept less than what he gave. She thanked him for that and she said she could tell he was smiling over the phone lol.

Then earlier today she went to see my Cap dad, which was a first. He also gave advice and made her laugh....since he always got jokes smh. She said she had a real good time, and she needed that.

She sounds happier since yesterday, so Im happy. I gotta figure out a way to go visit her soon.

I made a couple of comments to a newbie on the Aqua board that she didn't like and I think she blocked me! She only has one thread altogether. Wait til some of the notorious ones get a hold of her! She'll think I was super nice! hahahaha!

It's just funny that folks want an unbiased, honest opinion then get upset when you offer one up they don't agree with. 🙂

Okay, well, I did say she appeared conceited...... guess she didn't like that.

Me too, Capgirl75. We do 50/50 custody as well, Sunday - Sunday. Same here with the space issue (or lack of). My son does get tired of going back and forth, but I tell him he's getting the best of both worlds.

I've become VERY weary of bigots in my RL... it's just exhausting at times!

There is a website I go to which is full of 'em and I'm happy to argue as the day is long there; but in RL, not people I want to associate with any more and it seems those ARE primarily the type of people I get caught up with...

M this year has been tough here too.

i'm still against going all out negative and saying 'it sucks' because i'll feel like im admitting defeat, but the thought is floating around in the back of my mind.

for whatever it's worth... i know a lot of people are going through the same stuff too. same stuff as in... just demoralizing hard times. one thing after another.

speaking from my own life... it can seem like there is no end to the days and periods of utter bs, but if you keep your head above water and keep pushing, eventually things will suddenly start falling into place.

always be ready and have your eye open for opportunity.

ugh...


blech


sometimes i really hate spending money!!!!!!

People block because they have no self control... HELLO! Just ignore them if you don't like what they have to say. Whatever! Blocking is childish IMO... like many other Caps though, I'm too nosy to block someone anyway 😄

@ stillwater - LOVE the avatar!

@ Lildol - I'm nosy, too! lol!

LOL

you have to vent at some point or you may blow your lid at a really inconvenient time. i've done it. and i thoroughly embarrassed myself. *wide grin*

@ M - my grandmother used to say, "well, honey, you need more vitamins!" She thought that was the cure all for everything.
lol!

Not quite sure whats going on so here are some thoughts: Face the problem head on and charge it with your goat horns. If that doesn't work, try to drown them (but the little suckers like to swim in beer). The other thing you can do is take a vacation - go somewhere different with different scenery, etc.

I'm confident my advice will work. If it doesn't help, at least I hope I made you smile. 🙂

Hang in there brother!

^^^^ okay, that sounds kind of corny. I meant it to be light hearted. 🙂


Two exes have contacted me this week. Unresolved issues, now resolved leads to temptation. Damn retrograde!!!!!!
Hoping aqua realizes how seriously I'm taking this relationship!

i wanna give an inanimate object a thorough beat down.

i had a whole lot more written out to post. but i'm just gonna leave it at that.

REALLY? This is the 2nd time the Scorp said something... I'm in a half hour earlier than normal and the Scorp HAS to say "You're here AWFULLY early...." WTF? It's a half hour, yeah soooooo early. What if it was 15 minutes later? Would that STILL be AWFULLY early? If I came in at 7am THAT would be early! I think I'm going to start coming in then and she can go fuck herself!!

@Truecap, what sign was your grandma?

Corny is fine, it's worth a grin 🙂 I'm making major cuts and already prepped for change. I can thank my moon for making it horribly bittersweet.

She was a fiesty, little, tiny Aries! Only 4'11".

"Did they get you to trade

Your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

And did you exchange

A walk on part in a war

For a lead role in a cage?"

PINK FLOYD - WISH YOU WERE HERE

My FAVORITE Floyd song!!!

Actually LS, she's the stab ya in the back type (I've mentioned her before about running to the boss about something trying to throw me right under the bus - I was running the show and made a decision that she decided the boss probably would disagree with - she's a rat), I don't trust the little bitch...

Attack the couch from behind, it'll never see you coming :p

*sigh* ahhhh loves me some cap humor. lololol

maintain focus, momentum and velocity.

and be choosier.

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh baby, I hate to go

Yikes! I was texting with aqua and accidentally ended a text with luv ya. OMG! You never say that to an aqua first. It's a habbit I have with my girl friends. He didn't mention it and neither have I. But he's been acting his usual self. So, maybe I didn't screw up....

*fingers crossed he thought it was a good thing*

for some reason... aside from friends/family/loved ones... i really like it when people are mad at me.
my boss and one of my colleagues are mad at me right now and i'm really pleased with myself.

that's twisted.

My goodness Im tired!

Fewer people you have to worry about in your face.

^^^ 😛 True... With work esp. the sooner they quit crampin my style , the better.

In this case, their anger is the result of their own lack of communication. I feel like Im dealing with juveniles sometimes.

i am NOT looking forward to this 6 hr drive...



*cries*

I almost lost my shit twice in 24 hours on two seperate Geminis.

Cap + Gem = Disaster.

His Venus is in Sag, and his Mars is in Libras, so he probably can't help being attracted to Gems.

My moon is also in Capricorn.

I don't know anything about the other disaster.

Just my personal experience. I was married to a gem, it ended in disaster. Our other planets weren't compatible either.

pisces are one of those signs that everyone kind of takes for granted then they completely own you and have you on your knees. i wouldn't fuck with a pisces. everyone thinks they're weak. they're not. they're much stronger than most of the so-called macho signs like scorpio and leo.

only a fool underestimates a pisces.

Pisces are pretty fiesty! They can go from goldfish to barracuda in 2.3 seconds when they have to. 🙂

I really do not do well with simple minded people!

No one here under my skin... just to clarify!

My feet are killing me.

If only my mother wouldve listened and never moved back home!

I'm trying to get a pumpkin cheesecake baked, but the puppy keeps distracting me and MAKING me play (or simply makes me watch her play). She's quite talented at mind control! 🙂

my 1st cheesecakw i tried to bake was a pumpkin cheesecake. i liked it...too bad no one else did.

"salad days" = the days of one's youthful inexperience; green

this phrase is not used/heard often enough. i need to use it more.

I talked to my dad(Cap/Aqua venus) this morning and he straight dogged my mothers most recent guy. It all came as a surprise because I can tell he cares about her to some extent by his strong dislike for how the guy did my mom. He's threatening to tell him about himself if they ever meet.....he was pretty darn upset over the phone. Thought that was too cute especially since they never really dated and talk maybe twice a year.

Just cute that I saw a glimpse of something for once. He's been telling my mom not to worry about him.

have a wonderful turkey day/weekend everyone.

I ate waayyy too much!

i'm not sure why, but im obsessed with cake lately.


unfortunately... not making cake so much as eating cake

Turkey day for me today... my daughter had to work yesterday.
