Anniethology Upgrade/Downgrade


Upgrade: I'm wearing acrylic nails again for the first time since I was a single gal on the scene.
Downgrade: I can't open my own soda cans and more tyoza typos.

Upgrade: I have my milk delivered to my door in glass bottles.
Downgrade: Sometimes my order gets mixed up with Amy Payne's order and she drinks skim instead of whole. Amy, try the chocolate milk sometime. You can thank me later.

Upgrade: My new treadmill is now in working order.
Downgrade: Now I have to use it.

Upgrade: I've purchased a new bedroom set.
Downgrade: The delivery guys will only bring in the new set, they won't carry out the old set.

Upgrade: Secret Agent Man is home for a whole month.
Downgrade: He wants to be fed. Can you believe that? A hard-working man expects his stay-at-home mom/wife that he provides all these upgrades for to cook and clean for him? How dare he?!

  5. How do you drink whole milk and stay so slim???
    I wanna get my nails done. I have bumpy thumb nails so I hate sharing a hymnal at church.
    YAY for SAM being home!!
    I knew a girl named Amy Payne in high school. She married my 3rd grade boyfriend.

  6. Hairy- Thanks! I'll be here all week.

    Millie-Yep! Can't stand skim. It's like drinking water.

    Elizabeth-They sure do look purdy. SAM agreed to plant my tulip bulbs for me, because I didn't want to mess up my nails. What about garden gloves? Nope. Not for me.

    NCS- Count on me too see the tarnish on the silver lining.

    Tori-Did I mention that I love you?

  10. Mel- Me too. I'd take a bag of money, even if it had a hole in it.

    Bad-SAM just gave you a virtual high five.

    Glitters-It won't be delivered until after Thanksgiving. When it is, I'll take pictures, just cuz you asked nicely.

  12. Thanks for stopping by my blog so I could find yours!

    Upgrades are always a nice thing. We haven't had any for awhile though, I suppose we're due for some.

  13. I would be so happy to have my husband home for a month or even a week. He travels way too much. He is gone now. :( But oh the pressure to cook those dinners.

    The only way I get on my elliptical is by DVR'ing my favorite shows. Then I don't watch them unless I am on it. And I need to finish Pushing Daisies, so I better go get on it!

  14. That is so cute!

    chocolate skim milk is my favorite!

  15. That was fun. I so want acrylic nails--when I was young I had nice hands, now they look like the hands of an old lady (I wonder why ; )

    Enjoy having your hubby home!!!
