Ten Things Tuesday

Two*True

This was fun when CTBride kicked this off a few weeks back so let's do it again! :-)

Two*True

1) I ate breakfast an hour ago and I'm already hungry again.

2) K's family is coming to visit this weekend and they are bringing their little dog. I'm certain my big dog will try to eat it.

3) My mouse pad is blue with white clouds

4) I hate saying "I'm sorry" first in a fight, but I always will because I hate fighting even more.

5) I haven't called one of my bffs in weeks and I'm not too sad about it.

6) I'm getting my hair cut today :-)

7) Only 13 more days until my beta - lol!

8) My mom retired last week and I still haven't sent her a gift - I just don't know what to get her!?!

9) I'm still hungry

10) I'm a terrible blogger - my posts don't even interest me.

2brides

1. I love being able to have actual conversations with my kids.

2. I need Mary Poppins to land on our doorstep. We had a phone interview set up for last night, but when L called the applicant, she didn't answer and she hasn't called/e-mailed since then.

3.  I stopped at Chic-fil-a for breakfast even though I shouldn't have because of my weight and my checkbook.

4.  I have a ton of work to do and no motivation to do any of it.

5. We have actually had discussions about moving to Nashville.  All of L's family lives near there and we think it would be nice to live near family.  Plus housing is so much cheaper.  We worry about the whole gay issue, living in the south, the heat, and living too close to family. I doubt we'll do it - but it hasn't stopped me from looking at houses online and drooling.

6.  We looked at nearby houses this weekend and the prices made my want to throw up.

7.  Childcare is stressing me out - big time.

8.  We had TERRIBLE thunderstorms this morning. Grayson (who was already in our bed) cuddled with me (it was so nice!) and miraculously Carter slept through the whole thing.

9. I am trying to plan a romantic night away for us. I am waiting to hear from the boys godparents if they will spend the night. It'll be the first night I spend away from the boys.

10. We are walking in the Pride Parade on Saturday with Rainbow Families.  Are any of the DC posse going to the parade?

ctbride08

1) i  our moderator - and everyone else on this board

2) We are having a terrible thunderstorm. The building is shaking and the lightening flashes are blinding.  I was on the phone w/ a client when the thunder boom came and it was so loud, he asked me if i was okay. some days its not fun to work on the top floor of a very tall building.

3) i went to the gym yesterday for the first time in ages

4) we're having bbq chicken/avacado/mango salad for dinner tonight

5) i sing to our pets every morning

6) I was glad that A didnt get a smiley this morning - my schedule tomorrow is packed and having to work from the car to/from the insem would have been a nightmare

7) i fell in love w/ Andrea a million times this weekend. she did too many great little things to list, but suffice it to say that she's wonderful and the most supportive partner anyone could hope to have.  Dont ever let me complain about her again.

8) As of tomorrow, softball season is 100% over. forever.

9) that is, except for the league she plays on...but thats only a couple time a week.

10) i already have vacation brain. 

nevr2amazin

1) I am already drinking my alloted one sugar-free Red Bull for the day.

2) I really don't want to go grocery shopping, so I am thinking of other things I can do instead.

3) I am bummed that it rained last night...I really was going to mow the lawn today .

4) I didn't call my mom yesterday...sigh.

5) I envy Two*True's mouse pad...mine only says "STAPLES."

6) I miss my DW even though I chose to take the day off.

7) I want it to be Thursday (that's when we do the Beta).

8) I HATE writing, but LOVE statistics! (I am sad to have finished the stats for my dissertation.)

9) I am wondering why gas prices have gone up.

10) I just finished that darn Red Bull...I need to learn not to guzzle !

3. I get to have yummy leftover ziti for lunch!

4. Tonight we are going shopping for something cool to wear on our anniversary night when we go out in Orlando to CityWalk.

5. We finally got the A/C fixed in the truck and THANK GOODNESS!! It was a HOT HOT HOT couple of months until we could swing the cost.

6. My son is all the sudden growing up WAY too fast. It's a lil scary....

7. I am listening to fun dance music while I work and I can hardly keep from chair dancing....

8. I am so in love. She's simply the bestest honey ever!

9. We are doing SO much better with our budgeting and money management!

10. Did I mention I am so in love...?? 

JoySeattle

1. My dog is sleeping on my lap

2. I finished a final paper yesterday.

3. I have three more to write.

4. I may have to skip swim lessons in order to do that.

5. There's a meeting tonight that interfers with dropping of the paper due today.

6. I may turn it in tomorrow morning via email to the office assistant if I can get him to drop it in her box.

7. I'm already looking forward to the weekend when I'll be done for the summer.

8. Then I'll start packing and organizing.

9. I need to find a realtor we like and trust, that's good at helping clients both buy and sell and knows about condos and houses in the area.

10. I'm hungry, but my sleeping dog makes me not want to disturb him to get up and get food.

Duchess1

1. I am jealous of everyone's interesting weather. We just have June gloom.

2. PBS is the most amazing baby I have ever known. The thought of her ever going back makes me want to throw up.

4. I love my mom and call her everyday

5. I am so happy S has a break in her day and can come home for a few hours.

6. I am making mashed potatoes tonight.

7. I need a pedicure.

8. We finally found shade-loving flowers for the patio. They make me smile.

1. My mousepad is also blue with white clouds!  :-)

2. I just realized that I forgot my leftover Athenian Chicken on the counter at home (so good, chicken rolled with feta and mint, wrapped in philo dough and baked). Grr... not only do I not get to eat it for lunch now, but I won't get to eat it at all. I'm really hoping that our kitchen won't smell by the time I get home.

3. The thunderstorms this morning were huge and awesome! But I would have enjoyed them more if I could have stayed home with my pup, instead of having to shlep through them to work and ending up with soaked legs.

4. I got a BFN this morning. Blah.

5. I've been so bad lately about buying Starbucks in the mornings... I try not to do it because the cost adds up so quickly, but I've been bad about resisting.

6. Work is super overwhelming lately since my one coworker is out on medical leave until next monday (it will have been about three weeks). I'm doing a bunch of her stuff and I feel very "chicken with its head cut off." Like I can't get a grasp on everything.

7. I got my first jury duty summons... I'm supposed to go in next Wednesday, and I'm actually a little excited for it. 

8. I ate a late breakfast, but I'm already starved. 

9. TMI: I love how much sex we've been having lately, but hate that 90% of it has been wake me up in the middle of the night sex. If we're both too tired when we fall asleep, chances are i'm still going to be tired at midnight! But normally its just easier to have it at that point.

10. I'm boring today and have nothing else to share. Lol. 

Mrs._F

1. I have a lot of laundry to do at home.  It feels like it's never ending - and it's only the two of us!!

2. While I'm excited about the place we chose - the condo we rented in PTown does not have a washer and dryer, and I am already kind of regretting that choice, thinking about coming home with a week's worth of dirty clothes...

3. Our downstairs neighbors had a baby this week. I'm jealous.

4. I'm excited about seeing my inlaws next week, but worried they will ask too many probing questions about our baby timeline.  My MIL has been pushing C for more info, and we just don't really want to get into specifics with them.  I really want to try to wait until we get a bfp.  They are quite anxious to be grandparents.

5. I loved watching C hold the neighbors' baby.

6. For the first time in a long time, I really like my job.

7. I want a new camera.

8. We're having leftovers for dinner.

9. I just had lunch, and would like some cake for dessert, please.

10. I have officially survived my first post-bcp period, and thankfully, it wasn't that bad.

butterflygrooves

1) My lower back needs to be adjusted.

2) I wish it would either rain or get sunny, this overcast/humid weather is not fun.

3) I feel trapped at my job and I know I'm worth more than this.

4) I want to cook a big pot of vegetarian chili.

5) I've been craving Snickerdoodles for a few days.

6) I'm wearing a body shaper today.

7) I want to have a movie night with DW and DD.

8) Even though DD got in trouble for lying yesterday, we still went out for frozen yogurt.

9) I changed from my sterling silver "feminine" rings back to my "masculine" titanium ring because it can take more of a beating.

10) I want to make the cute little cake monsters in my Debbie Brown cake book.

3. I can't wait to be REALLY married.

4. I haven't ate breakfast, but thats okay b/c i never do.

5. I adore my wii and wii fit, almost to a level where i'd be considered nerd.

8. I'm going to miss my really cute home here.

1. I am happy the baby is sleeping and I get to read and post for the first time in a while.

2. Scoopy is sick. I am hoping her bronchitis doesn't turn into pneumonia. I hate seeing her sick.

3. I could watch Scoopy cuddling with Annie forever. It makes me love them both all the more.

4. My house is falling apart. I need to have two more arms so I can get stuff done while holding the baby.

5. I am making chicken enchiladas for dinner tonight. It is my specialty dish and I am all excited.

1. Some days I want my old job back where I could knot/nest all day and still get my work done.

2. I have not felt like going to work for the last several days. I thought the weekend would help, but it just reminded me how much I like being home.

3. This morning I jokingly asked Sylvia to play the lottery so we could both stay home with our future kiddo(s). I was only half-joking.

4. I am having a terrible time finding people to hire. Yes, even in this economy.

5. I woke up at 3 am last night so hungry I had to eat a bowl of cereal in order to be able to go back to sleep.

6. I feel like a good boss would talk to each of their employees at least once a day, and some days I just can't muster the strength to do it (small talk exhausts me). Then I feel guilty.

7. I really need a vacation.

8. It's the ninth day of the month and I haven't yet sat down to work on the bills (I usually do it before the 1st).

9. I am more excited about our beta Thursday than my birthday tomorrow.

10. I really, really want to be pregnant right now.

2. Even though it's a few years from now sometimes I can't think of anything other than having a baby.

3. We decided today that were going to NYC for Labor Day, I can't wait to see my BFF that I haven't seen in over 4years.

4. I need a vacation now!

5. Our new kitten keeps following our older cat around trying to fight and wrestle, needless to say its getting on my nerves.

6. I'm looking forward to our cruise to Mexico even though its all the way in December.

7. I'm hungry but don't know what I should eat.

8. Sometimes I hate working.

9. I'm not looking forward to going back to school in the fall.

10. Currently my biggest concern is "where the heck is my degree??" It's been over a month since graduation and I still don't have it.
