Morning!

raynes

Man oh man I think this time change is hitting me harder than I thought it was.  I was exhausted last night and this morning.  I can't wait for vacation.

I did Blackberry surgery last night.  Derek's got the Bold with the trackball and it had stopped scrolling up.  So, I watched a few videos, busted out the micro screwdrivers and took it apart.  The trackball assembly itself was a bit of a PITA to put back together, but everything is in working order again.  I think I'm going to order some a few trackball assemblies to avoid this whole business in the future.

Today promises much running around and errand doing.  How is everyone today?

You are daring Raynes. If I ever tried to that, I wouldn't be able to get it back together.

Today I am trying to get my desk caught up before I fly out this afternoon.  It is all bitter sweet. This is the first business trip since having the boys. Not going to lie, I may or may not have cried a little when I went into the nursery this morning to say goodbye.  Christian was still sleeping so I couldn't really do much. Zach got a big hug and kiss though.   However on the bright side, I am looking forward to 2 nights of a bed to myself, and 2 full nights of sleep!

So I might not be able to get on to say hello until evening the next couple of days, as I would be nesting from my phone.

Have a great few days ladies!

I am thoroughly exhausted. We finally finished one room last night. Well, I still have to double check a 2nd coat tonight, and then we can move some furniture in. Every project we do in this house turns into a disaster. I am not looking forward to any more. Still one more room to go, and it's not looking good already. Is it nap time yet?

Good Morning!

Me and Eli booked our vacation to destin for July! So excited about a week at the beach with my boys.

Today is just work ugh not fun. Then this afternoon I have to run home and get jordan's bag and go get him and Preston from daycare. Jordan is going on a fishing trip with Eli's dad the rest of the week (since its spring break) and he will not be back till friday. Going to be nice to spend some one on one time with Preston but Jordan is so much help and he is our entertainment. I am pretty sure Preston is going to be lost without his big brother.

Good morning! I've got to clean up the house and maybe run out to pick up some flowers this morning. I have friends coming over around 2:30 and we're going out to explore the St.Lawrence Market and the Distillery District before hitting up dinner at our new little local place.

My review of it on my blog is top choice for google. Ker-azy.

Good morning! Hope everyone's doing well today. Last night was pretty low-key, but we did stay up a bit later than usual talking about the whole kids thing. It was a great conversation and we managed to pinpoint specific fears that we're bringing up at our next session on Monday.

Today Josh will be leading some more website training at home while I hit the gym. I was supposed to have a book club meeting tonight, but no one besides me finished the book. People! C'mon! (I'm a bit disappointed because I loved this book and wanted to discuss it over pasta. Ah, well, next month.)

Good morning!  I'm just waiting on the nurse to call me back with the results of my blood work this morning.

I have a grant report due today that I am only about 1/2 finished with, so that's what I'll be doing today.  It's my own fault for not starting it until yesterday.   And they are finally supposed to get our phones up and running this afternoon.  They are supposed to port our phone numbers over to this new system while our outside tech is here to make sure everything is programmed correctly.  Yay!!

This evening, I am playing trivia at my favorite local Mexican place with a former co-worker and girl that, for simplicity's sake, I'll call my niece (she's my BIL's girlfriend's daughter).

this week is going to dragggg... I really want to test on thursday (10dpo), but know I should wait until the end of the wkd and because of that this will probably be the slowest wk ever 

Also, now that the party is over and thats where I was focusing all my energy, I'm kinda at a loss of what to do next.  P's started volunteering and walking dogs at a local rescue organization, and while I'd love to join him, its a pretty strict operation.  You have to go through 3 separate trainings and you need to complete a certain # of volunteer hours a month.  I don't want to go through the training (which we both did back in 2008 before realizing we couldn't commit 20hrs a month - which they since lowered - bc of their hrs and our work schedules at the time)  because if I do become pregnant I don't want to volunteer for a month and then be the person who quits...  I guess I need a new hobby...

IT'S CLOSING DAY! On the new house, anyway. We close on the condo at the end of the month, so we're moving on the 24th. We'll be paying a visit tonight though.

Good Luck Rebaann!

Good Morning Ladies. 

I didn't sleep well last night, therefore woke up with a terrible migraine and had a run in with morning sickness but I am feeling a little better now. Work is going to be busy today so hopefully that will help the day go by fast. We got home last night and took a walk, spring is so close!

Have a great day ladies.

Congrats Ringy!  And good luck Reba, fingers crossed for you!

I just got back from a team lunch.  With everybody's holidays coming up, this is the last time that all members of our team of 8 will all be in town at the same time until August.  Crazy.  I'm the first to leave tomorrow, woohoo!  I laid everything out last night, so should be an easy packing job tonight.  I also have an alumni event tonight which should be fun.

Good luck Rebbecca!  And congrats Ringy.  Can't wait to see pics once you've finally moved in at the end of the month.

As Amie posted earlier, we had an awesome GTG last night while she is in town for training.  We did a bit of shopping, had dinner and drinks, and all around just a good time.  She is such a sweetheart too, and like she said in her post, we are so similar. 

Kaesha, are you still planning on visiting Chicago in April?  I know there had been talk about it awhile back.

Today should be a fairly normal work day.  I have lots to get done, but nothing out of the ordinary.  Aside from that, B has his big exam today, so hopefully, I can get home at a reasonable hour this evening to celebrate him being done.

Have a good day ladies.

congrats ringy! and good luck, Rebaann - I've got fingers and toes crossed for you!

I'm feeling crappy today. we accidentally let our anxiety meds run out, and stupid DH decided to start having them delivered to our house, which is a great thought, but failed to mention that it takes 12 days to get here. which means I've been a ball of dizziness and on the brink of a panic attack for two days. awesome.

in other news, I'm still getting positive O test results, so yoga will continue until I no longer see that second line. hoping that we've got our timing right this month!

Reba - fingers crossed for you!

Ringy - Congrats! Fingers crossed for you as well that all goes smoothly.

Reba - everything that I can cross is crossed for you. Good luck!

Ringy - Congratulations. So excited for you guys!

Good luck Rebaann! I'll be stalking the board all day!

Congrats Ringy! Can't wait to see D&R pictures of your new place!

Good luck Mandee and EHayes! I hope this is your month!

Nothing exciting here today. I'm trying to put together a proposal for our a new attorney compensation plan...sounds fun huh!? Tonight I'm working out with friend and then catching up on Teen Mom. Have a great day ladies!

Good morning every one!

I had a friend come over last night to help me mop my floors and do some laundry because as it stands, I still can't lift more than 5 pounds. Today Russ is coming home and I can't wait, I sure could use help with the boys. Izaac is finally eating after 3 weeks of being sick. He lost 5 pounds and is just now starting to fill out again.

While I'm waiting for Russell's plane to land, I'll be working on this art gallery/silent auction fundraiser for the Heart and Stroke Foundation I decided to host. There is a lot of work involved in getting sponsors and donations and finding local artists that would like to contribute. This is a fundraiser that hits close to home so I'm really excited about putting on a great show.

Morning. Is this day over yet?

Good morning ladies!

Reba - fingers crossed for you. Good luck!

Ringy - congrats on closing!

I'll be at work and I have some errands to run later today. I had been feeling a little under the weather but I feel better today so I hope whatever it was, it's gone. Hope you all have a great day.

I'm just checking in for a few minutes in between jobs.  I really hope I don't end up to exhausted doing 12 hours today =(

I really think the time change is helping me to NOT be tired.  With the sun still shining later into the evening, I've been getting outside to run and that makes me super happy!

Good evening!

I had a decent day...my faculty meeting was frustratingly pointless, but they always are, so that is nothing new.  It is beautiful here today, so I was able to get a good run outside.  It was muddy and I had to walk in places because of the huge puddles, but overall it was great!  Hopefully it means spring is really on the way!
