Back again... sadly, with another MB Monday. I look forward to the day when I don't have these issues with my brain functioning properly.
Numero Uno:
TMZ: "Tiger Woods says he's taking an indefinite break from golf"
Me (in my head): "Hmmmm, indefinite. Does that mean he's never coming back? Or, does it mean he'll be back eventually? I should know what indefinite means. God, I'm an idiot. I should ask Dan. If I do he's going to give me that look. That, are you effin' serious look?"
Me (out loud): "What does indefinite mean?"
Dan (in his head): "Is she effin' serious?"
Dan (out loud): "What?"
Me: "What does indefinite mean? Like he's never coming back or he may come back?"
Dan (in his head): "Oh my God, she is effin' serious!"
Dan (out loud): "He may come back eventually"
Me (in my head): "I should have just looked it up online."
(2) I ordered a bunch of photobooks from Kodak as Christmas gifts. My first order was "lost" according to the Kodak people. I was pissed but at least they were able to send them to me quickly enough that I could get them out to the US before Christmas. The second order was sent December 1st (and the shipping said 4-7 days). So, yesterday, I'm like - jeez, my order should have been here last week. So I call kodak to see what's up and they tell me my order must have been lost AGAIN! I lost it. I was on the phone for an hour and a half with them - they said they couldn't get my order out in time for Christmas and they weren't offering me anything - no refund, no credits, nothing. I was pissed. After an hour and a half of my day (and you other new Moms know how precious that time was as Jane was napping, it was my ME time), they gave me a $30 credit and did a re-order on my books, which would arrive God-knows-when. I checked the mail the next day... my order was there. I had spent an hour and a half on the phone losing my mind and the stupid books were sitting in my mailbox. Awesome. On the plus, I got a $30 credit! :p

(3) Three times this week I sent reply emails to people asking them to send me something that they had already given me in the original email. You'd think after the first "nevermind" email, I would have started checking before I sent the "can you send me..." reply, but NO. Three times I had to write "Nevermind, this is why my blog is called MB". If it were family, no biggie, but it was blog-related business stuff. Awesome.

PS - Perhaps this is a tip everyone is aware of but me and, as always, perhaps it is just a fluke but the last two days, I've broken up Jane's cereal-feeds into one in the AM and one before her last feed of the night (6:30pm, then she has her bedtime feed at 8-8:30ish). Two nights in a row she's slept from 8:30pm until almost 6am! I don't want to curse it but I'm going to stick to this new routine until it fails me! :p

I had a mommy brain moment on a mommy brain monday....I made plans with 3 different plans for this morning and only just realized it at midnight last night!
I think this may have something to do with the fact that Chloe is now getting up every 3 hrs to eat through the night and I'm back to no sleep. Cereal was a fail last week after trying for the first time so I'll try again today!
I've had so many MB moments in the last week. Yesterday the phone was ringing and I finally found it... in the cupboard right beside the box of crackers I had put back an hour before. The onlt thing that has given me some form of comfort was watching my husband poor himself a cup of coffee yesterday and putting the pot back......in the fridge. Maybe it's just Christmas that has us all mindless??
As for Kodak, I have done EXACTLY the same thing, I waited for over two months for prints and then emailed them, they resent them, twice for some reason.It took about 6 months, but I did end up getting the origional order plus the two others they had resent.
Just an FYI - I've had some major problems with Kodak and their photo books too. I've had much better success (and I even like the printing and options better) with picaboo.com...
lol:) i love these moments. i have at least a few a week.
