Tuesday Randoms

We needed a new post.  So share your random thoughts!

Re: Tuesday Randoms

  • We're going out for lunch for Christmas today and doing presents with each other - so I'm having a hard time working.

    Noah has a basketball game tonight and I'd much rather be going to my Body Blast class. 
  • We are going to our Christmas lunch in less than an hour and I am counting down the minutes. I'm not usually in on Tuesdays, so I'm leaving after that (easiest day ever!).

    I still have to wrap all of the kids gifts and have no idea when I am going to do it!

    I am so sick of snow!

  • we did our christmas potluck/gift exchange at work yesterday, so now I have nothing to look forward to the rest of the week.

    In good news, the university sent out a message saying it was closing on Monday, 12/23...it was a christmas miracle!!  they were already going to be closed 12/24-1/1, so it seemed so silly to be open one day.

  • Some of our internal clients surprised me with a holiday gift today.  Nail polish and an adorable infinity scarf.  It really made my day to know that I'm appreciated. 

    It inspired me to band together with some of my coworkers to do something special for our contractors who don't get the same holiday perks that the FTEs do.

  • DD's preschool Christmas show is on Friday and I'm so excited because she is so excited.  She is normally shy around people she doesn't know but last year when she got on stage she just came alive.  She was the loudest singer in the bunch.  I can't wait to see her sing her little heart out again this year. 

     

     
  • People are driving me crazy this week - coworkers, my children, my husband, even my cats!! I considered faking an emergency work trip and hiding out at a friend's house for 48 hrs, but it hasn't come to that yet - LOL  And not being able to drink is NOT helping the situation.

    I have no idea how I am going to make it through the rest of the work week; it is terribly slow and mentally, everyone (including myself) has checked out! There is plenty I could do at home, so it's kind of killing me to be at work.  Though truthfully, if I was home, I'd probably nap!!

  • i am eating a bag of pittsburgh popcorn. yum.

    There are a ridiculous number of sugary treats in our office. I'm considering it a victory that I've only had two truffles and two cookies (so far) today.

    I'm currently eating carrots to try to feel full!

  • I have had a work day from hell today and I am so over it! 

    Unlike Amy, I have done a horrible job at managing my sweet intake.  My Secret Santa brought me a bag of reeses peanut butter cups and I can't stop eating them!!

  • Meghan - a personal bag of those would be my undoing! And I still have 90 more minutes to eat more sugar...

    I got that email too!! Ha.
  • I love that even though the post are fewer, we sure cover just about every topic under the sun!! Christmas dinner menus, birth control, pressure cookers. :)
  • I am so over work this week and it is only Tuesday. I have a ton to do since I spent this weekend feeling like I may be dying so the last place I really want to be is work. So many annoying customers and one of our manufacturers is really driving me to the brink of insanity. Just when things start going well with them, they ruin it. Seriously, you are a heating equipment manufacturer and half of your staff is off on vacation so you are behind (head to desk). They are also having union "issues" with the people who fill orders so our customers are getting wrong parts. Awesome!

    On the plus side, all of the sales staff will be out of the office for the next two days entertaining customers at our holiday luncheons.

  • Looks like I am planning a wedding too!  How fun that we can all plan together!
