1) I cant wait until I'm finished w/ the holiday shopping. I feel like I've used up all my creative ideas!

2) It gives me agita that I haven't started on the holiday cards...even though i'm intentionally waiting on them this year.

3) Work is much better this week.

4) Its a beautiful day out.

5) made my first batch of fondant last night and i think it came out pretty well. tonight will be the true test when i try to decorate with it.

6) we really, really need to mow the lawn - its out of control.

7) i'm already dreading shoveling this winter.

8) the lesbian moms group we (prematurely) signed up for just announced a bonfire/pumpkin carving/smores/bounce house/outdoor movie get together and i'm so so so bummed we dont have a kid to bring to it - sounds awesome.

9) I have a calendar from australia up in my office and October's picture is of gorgeous queensland (where we went for our HM) - its making me terribly nostalgic.

10) I think shane should jump ship from three rivers and join bette on lie to me.  oh man, that would rock.

1.  I already ate my lunch.  Oops.

2.  Getting the kids up and dressed is getting harder and harder now that the novelty of school has worn off, it is dark outside, and cold.  My patience is really tested at 7am. I am really not a morning person.

3.   One of my patients died yesterday in a tragic accident and I can't stop thinking about it. 

4.  I have so much to do at work today....and so little motivation.

5. I still don't know if we are going to the Equality March on Sunday.

6.  I didn't sleep well at all last night and I am feeling it.

7.  I am feeling overwhelmed. I just need to make a list, put on my iPod, and start checking things off.

8.   I meant to put our jogging stroller in the back of the van this morning to go get the tire fixed, but I forgot. Oops.

9.  I am obsessing over a meeting that I had yesterday and how I came across (like an insecure child who is trying to save my ass.)  That was not the tone/sentiment I was going for and if looks could have killed...

10.  *YAWN*

1. This morning the dog ate her breakfast too fast and ended up puking. Between my feet. While I was on the toilet peeing, and therefore couldn't relocate. Ugh.
   
2. It was impossible to be mad at her though because it clearly wasn't enjoyable for her either! And she gave me the biggest puppy eyes and looked so dejected afterward. 
3. Still, I was super grateful that this wasn't 10 days ago when the morning sickness was still going on... because it would have been all over for me and I definitely would have done an encore of her performance. As it was, I had psych myself up to clean it up... and then sit, sipping tea and deep breathing for a few minutes post to get my tummy under control again. 
4. Speaking of my tummy... I think I popped. I swear my belly looks bigger today then it did last night.
   
5. It looks like my brother is taking the train up from DC to visit this weekend and I can't wait to see him. I'm going to make so much food to stuff him with, I can't wait. 
6. He's been going through a very rough time in the past few months and I only hope that I can give him lots of love and support while he's here... without being too much of a mother hen!! 
7. Our 3rd anniversary is in a week and I cannot wait! (I also can't believe its been 3 years & 9 years already.) Next week is going to rock.
   
8. I'm super hungry and considering eating my lunch now... but am wondering what I'll eat later then, since I'll have to have another meal before the work day is done.
   
9. The work on the office is going pretty well... we already stripped over half the paint from the walls. Trav is a freakin machine about it though, and told me he wants to spend all evening in the room.  Luckily, he told me that he does NOT expect me to do the same! Thank goodness!!
   
10. I'm so glad its fall.

1. Ella slept in the bassinette from the stroller in the pack and play all night! 
2. I had to sleep with my hand on Ella's chest in the bassinette in order to get her to sleep but I didn't mind
3. We went and bought Ella some really cute outfits yesterday and spent too much money but it was worth it.
4. Because we spent so much money we are getting a free photo shoot at the store for Ella today and I am hoping that the pictures come out well.  We get a free 8 x10 and can order more
5. I love fall
6. I am excited to go apple picking on thursday or friday this week
7. I found my favorite jeans that I had pack away with the rest of my fall "normal" clothes and they fit!
8. I still need to lose some weight but I feel at least near where I started before the pregnancy
9. We visited the nicu on sunday and it was so nice to see one of our nurses
10. I am in a good mood today.

1. My walk is in 5 days and I need to raise $29,287 to make budget. I hope our walkers are out there raising a bunch of money.

2. It looks at though we are going to have nice weather for our walk, but the march in DC might get rained on :-(

3. I'm really looking forward to seeing friends in DC.  My ex and her DW are flying in from CA and want to meet up for drinks. It would be nice to see them.

4. My mom is already planning all my favorite meals for when I go home next week.

5. OMG - I'm going to be in CA one week from today! Okay that made me cry! I miss home soooo much.

6. My boss really doesn't understand what I do.

7. I've been working on this list for what seems like forever now but keep getting interrupted.

8. I been so busy this morning I've yet to check my personal email accounts.

9. I was super hungry this morning so on my way to work I bought a sausage, egg, and cheese bagel.  Oh it was good!

10.  Will people just please call/email me back?  So much of my work depends on people getting back to me - ugh.

1. Just came back from the GYN and she was thrilled to hear about my DW! (Though, a little shocked we are having twins.)
2. Today I learned that past surgeries can hinder even the simplest biopsy.
3. I am off to another appointment...and then another...not the way I prefer to spend a day off.
4. To reward myself, I bought a Red Bull on the way home...YES!
5. I really need to give up Red Bulls.
6. I have nieces and nephews trying to "out" one of my nephews and it has me mad beyond mad.
7. For some reason I find myself REALLY MISSING my brother who is stationed in the Netherlands...I hope he is okay.
8. The Red Bull made me cold...glad I will be in the car in a few (it is cold in the house).
9. I am not in the best of moods today...*sigh*.
10. HOWEVER, tomorrow is my DW's next cervical check and I am so excited about that. Though, like others, I always get a little anxious. I love our LBs SO MUCH!

1. Sandy sent me an IM the other day saying she needed some "Sniggle" time with me. Yes it was a typo but I thought it sounded so cute that we've started using the term! :-)
2. I am NOT motivated to work today. I got alot done but am now really just counting the mins til I can escape to my honey!
3. Sandy and I are seriously saving towards/considering buying a boat. We live on a lake and it would just be the best! I'm excited to think we could do this for ourselves.
4. We are going out on a little date tonight. I want to eat out!
5. I am so looking forward to fall. We had a couple of cooler days last week and now I'm jonesing for some cool evenings! We want to go camping but not when we would be sweating our butts off!
6. Sandy and I are just as blissfully in love as ever. I think we make our friends sick because we are so sweet on each other. Poor them....
7. I have honey roasted almonds on my desk and I have to REALLY make myself close the lid after a few or I would eat WAYYY too many!! YUMMY!
8. I put up some Halloween decorations this past weekend and it made me very happy. It's my favorite holiday!
9. I'm starting to get a little freaked about my next birthday. It's the big 4-0 and I usually don't feel old but the calendar keeps marching on. I just don't want to end up looking like my mother.
10. I wish it was 5 NOW!!

1. My new job is awesome. It's going really really well.

2. I love the Owl City Firefly song, and it's totally not my style of music.

3. Julie forgot her phone at home today, I hope she didn't need it.

4. We really need to get another car, with no public transportation in our new town, and working two differant schedules our options are running thin. I also found out that my work, is a little too far to walk.

5. I've started working out again, and it makes me feel really great!

6. My dog has waaaaaay to many clothes.

7. My sisters really good friend, died in a car accident this weekend. It's tragic, and I can hardly fathom it. However, I am really worried about my sister. It's incredibly hard on her.

8. Said sister also has a color guard competition this weekend. I'm super excited to go because she is SO good, and I taught her a lot of what she knows, and I love watching all the teams.

9. I have an unhealthy obsession with one tree hill. I can't wait for next week.

10. Fall came so quick, and I'm dreading driving in the winter any recommendations on good winter wearther cars?
