Re: Roll call and WAYD?

  • Prepping for an audit meeting in fifteen minutes. 

    What a way to start my first day back at the office.  I hate audit season.   

  • Good morning, I'm eating a late breakfast. After Lucy girl gets up I'm going to meet a AZ bumpie at the Chandler mall.

    My good friend just had her baby last night so I'm taking dinner over to her tonight!

    PLEASE tell me it's her first nap of the morning, and that she's not still sleeping...I would be INSANELY jealous is that was the case! Embarrassed 

    Sitting in my office working on some new orders that came in, and procrastinating doing a recap from a promotion....also, thinking about entering my pup in a contest I just heard about from the humane society's weekly emails I recieve.

    I'm in the same boat with the house projects. There are so many things I want to do but the funds are not available : ( We were thinking of putting together a list of all the stuff we want to do then picking one project or two  a month to save for.

    Since setting a date for Casey's bday party, our lives have become a race to finish the house.  We're now down to 3 weekends before the party, and I'm starting to stress that we won't finish...

    What kind of projects do you have?  Are you into DIY or contracting?  Our renos have mostly been DIY, other than the countertops and HVAC.  If you need any contacts I'm happy to make a rec.

  • I am sitting at home, answering work e-mails and waiting for the electrical contractor to come over to give me an estimate to do some work.  I am so tired of estimates, work orders, home repair and all that goes along with it.  I just want to move and be done with this! 

    I'm stressed, can you tell???

  • Here briefly.  Isabella had a rough morning.  She has had 2 UTI's in the past month or 2, and her pediatrician wanted her to get an ultrasound to check her kidneys to make sure everything was ok.  We had the ultrasound appt. this morning, and it did NOT go well.  For some reason, she was HYSTERICALLY petrified of the lab tech and the bed.  We weren't even there for anthing painful.  But just putting her on the bed resulted in her scrambling and literally clinging to me for dear life, and screaming like someone was trying to hurt her.  =(  I tried every trick in the book to get her to calm down and to get her ok with the tech (who was a very nice woman).  Nope.  So, I had to hold her down for like 15 minutes for the ultrasound.  She was seriously hysterical, red, screaming bloody murder, and trying to get free.  It was so hard for me not to get upset also.  I do not know what happened.  She has never acted like that at a doctor appt.  Ever. 

    All I can think of was that she has just been through too much medical stuff lately.  We have been going to the pedi's office constantly for weight checks (since she is very, very small, and not really gaining weight well at all), and the UTI's, and she has had to pee in a bag taped to her like 3 times now, and had blood drawn twice, and we have had to hold her down twice per day for her antibiotics for 10 days for each of her 2 UTI's, plus we had the dentist last week (which she hated) and now this ultrasound.  I think she is just done.  Poor thing.  And we go back to the doctor on Friday.  =(

    Anyway, so she went down for a nap, and is finally sleeping.  I think I might go take a nap also and try to forget this morning...  =(

  • Here!

    Just sent a new LSR over to our REA for the REA selling our (hopefully) future home. We just need a damn yes now. I'm kind of freaking out...

    Not much work for me right now so I'm a little bored and I'm hungry. lol

    aw man sharon!  that stinks!  i hope they figure it out soon! 

  • I'm here. :) Putzing around the house for another half an hour until work starts. I should've been productive this morning, but instead I just sat around on the computer and watching tv. There are at least a dozen 'projects' around the house to do. But we were away camping all weekend, so now I'm feeling like I need some more lazy time. :) Oops!
  • I'm here now!  I just got back from Target and I'm eating some ramen noodles.  Not the most nutritious lunch, but hey, I have yet to grocery shop for the week yet!  At 1:30 I have a groomer in one of those van things coming to groom Macy.  We'll see how she handles that lol!
  • Thanks Shelly.  I hope so too!

    Ugh, that must have been so heartbreaking to feel so helpless while she was upset! I hope the doctors appointments calm down soon.  :(

     Jenn -- Now I'm craving paradise cookies!! A friend of mine did a cookie table at her wedding and asked a bunch of guests (mostly women in her family and her bridesmaids/close friends) to bring a batch of cookies, and then we made labels to explain what each batch was. It was really cute (and yummy), and didn't cost her anything. I think people really got into it and enjoyed it. Of course, paradise bakery is also totally amazing -- you can't go wrong there!

    I'm kind of bummed today because my mom went home this morning.  :(  It's always awesome to have her here, but it sucks when she leaves. You'd think after living in AZ for 6 years, I'd be used to it, but I think the hormones are making it particularly difficult this time, haha.

  • Icky icky Skittle **too lazy to go check the website for your real name, and my brain doesn't work to remember it in the first place, SORRRRRRYYY!!!!!!***  That is no fun. Give her lots of kisseys for us! 

     

    I'm around. Lurking mainly. Sick. I hate being sick. My head feels like it should be exploding any moment. And because of being sick, I'm missing out on river rafting tomorrow with the IL's :(  

  • Here...late just like in H.S. lol

    I'm starving!!!! I haven't eaten all day! Kaylee has VBS this week and Evan is the crankiest little man on the block (4 new teeth coming in).

  • I'm doing laundry and waiting for my SO to be home(and bring dinner)
