Re: Ten Things Tuesday

  • 1. I have to get a cavity filled today. I really don't feel like it. Ugh.

    2. We have been staying out at my mom's since Christmas and will be leaving tomorrow. I am ready to go home. Mostly so we can get DD back to her normal sleep schedule.

    3. I like sleeping until 830 damnit. 715 two days in a row and 6 every other morning we have been out here is not okay.

    4. I also cannot wait for our workout room to get all set up so we can start exercising.

    5. DH and I are going to alternate days we go out and exercise so then we can also encourage each other instead of fighting over whose turn it is.

    6. Going to town during nap time means no nap at home today so no me time.

    7. I need to do some laundry. I would like mostly clean clothes for when we go home.

    8. We need to go grocery shopping.

    9. I want a glass if chocolate milk.

    10. I need to see the neurologist because mymigraines are coming back but I am seeing the endocrinologist on the 6th. I feel like I need to figure out what is going on since it all seems to be related rather than treat one symptom or another.

  • 1. I'm 38 weeks today. Out of nowhere I've been crampy... but I can't decide if it's just because I had greasey food for breakfast.

    2. H had a snowball fight with his buddies, the lead singer of his favorite band and his.son on Saturday.

    3. The crippling snowstorm may not happen!! Thursday and Friday may not be terrible!

    4. H is putting the carseat in his car today. My car is waiting though, as I won't be driving for awhile after LO comes.

    5. Our PNP is all set up in the living room!

    6. I'm excited to have our friends over one last time without LO being here. I know how exhausted I'm going to be tomorrow...and I'm not impresses.

    7. My dad has called or texted me everyday since Christmas to check on me. He's so excited for the baby and I think it's adorable. He can't wait to take LO to the sprint car races.

    8. H's dad has been really distant lately and H is getting worried. He's in poor health (mostly drinking related...) and H is worried that he's really sick. He avoided all of his kids on Christmas.

    9. I really hope H wants to go out for lunch, I'n restless and I need to get out.

    10. I want to go for a walk outside, but it's 23 degrees outside.

  • 1. I think work is trying to get me to quit so they don't have to pay me unemployment. The day after my DH's great-grandfather's funeral, they send me an email saying I'm not getting credit for funeral leave because he isn't a parent, spouse or sibling. Screw you guys.

    2. Because of this (this is the email I came into today), I have official checked out mentally today. I was going to get a ton of stuff completed in case LO came early, but now I'm pissed.

    3. DH and I are thinking about signing up for Obamacare in case I get let go after maternity leave.

    4. I can't believe how big LO is. I'm so excited he's almost here.

    5. I'm nervous about DH on delivery day. Since yesterday, he's been really anxious about LO's arrival. This morning, before our appointment, he threw up because he had the realization that the time for LO is imminent.

    6. However, I still think he will be an amazing dad and that our LO will be obsessed with him :)

    7. My nephews couldn't be cuter. This past Saturday, my 3 year old nephew ran up to me and kissed me smack on the lips and goes, "I just want to say hi." Heart melted. (However, there was a part of me that was like, "I hope he's not doing this at school..." Lol)

    8. DH drive me to work today. I have no idea what I'm going to do about lunch. I'm trapped here.

    9. If we don't come up with 3 names we agree on by delivery day, my head will explode. We want to see him and name him but we need to agree on which names to take to the hospital.

    10. I'm stumped on names to bring him. Jonathan is still my number one.

  • 1. we have to check out of the hotel at noon and instead of getting ready I'm nesting.

    2. I love driving while on road trips.

    3. TMI: I have to use the bathroom but I hate using public bathrooms.

    4. Seriously it's 11:20 and I'm still sitting here.

    5. This hotel is really nice but not $130 for a few hours nice.

    6. We got here at 3 am I wanted to sleep in but my grandpa wouldn't stop calling me. I know he worries but my mom had already told him we had gotten here okay.

    7. I feel like throwing up.

    8. I should really get going.

    9. I already miss my house and pup.

    10. On our way back home we will be stopping at the UFO museum. Lol we are weird.
  • @pennstated912 I hope your DH just has nerves from all this anticipation and when it comes to labor/delivery/brand new baby he will be so in the moment he won't have time to be nervous anymore! Also, I love the name Johnathon :) hope you guys can figure out some names! So funny how you talked about "bringing" them to the hospital with you...makes me think of you packing them in your hospital bag!

  • 1) My due date is in 3 months...um, I guess we need to get crackin on the nursery.

    2) Little girl is kicking so hard it hurts!

    3) I just ate lunch and I'm still hungry.  Grrrr.

    4) I am sleepy and want to go back to bed.

    5) We seem to have lost the U/S pics from last week.  They were the first good pics of her and the only really bright spot from last week's crappy week.  I'm gonna call my OB's office to see if I can get a reprint but boo!

    6) I'm bad and I registry stalk...and things are starting to come off!!!

    7) It doesn't seem that we can rebook our vacation...maybe I can talk DH into using the money for something else pretty or fun?

    8) I don't think I have 10 today.

  • 1. I miss my nieces terribly! I haven't seen them since Christmas and can't remember the last time we had a sleep over. I want to have them over this weekend, but SIL and A's mom got into a fight so they won't have her this weekend. I love C, but I want both of them. :( 

    2. I am barely working today. I'm just ready to go home and spend time with friends. 

    3. Because of 2 joke status, someone I went to high school with deleted me. I could really careless, I just think it's funny.

    4. I'm looking forward to going back to taking care of myself and seeing the progress of it, even if DH is upset because he'll be fending for himself since he doesn't want to join me. 

    5. I couldn't buy alcohol last night at the store because Fav-Cousin was with me and didn't have her ID. I made fun of her the rest of the night for being a "young one."

    6. DH took me to dinner to use a gift card we got for Christmas last night. I had leftover for lunch, it was awesome!

    7. I am so cold. I forgot my sweater at home :(

    8. We are closed for the 1st and 2nd. I think this is beyond stupid though I will enjoy having the days off. 

    9. FB is making me think of baby S because everyone is reviewing their past year and baby S is the first thought in my mind.  

    10. My SIL is currently having her wages garnished for a medical bill, paying a debt to 1 insurance company while being sued by another insurance company (fire), has to decided to go a lawyer over custody of A (A's mom has full custody), and is still planning to take a vacation to NC this summer.

  • 1. I want a diet Coke, from the fountain, right meow!

    2. There's only 22 minutes left of work. Woohoo!

    3. My parents house is on the way home from work, and I really want to stop and get in their hot tub.

    4. My entire body aches from Boot camp class yesterday, but it still feels great.

    5. FFC: My gut is getting so big that I look 3 months pregnant.  Like, not button your pants and can't suck it in anymore.  Aghk! No more excuses.

    6. Maybe I'll start being better about my food tomorrow? For now I'm going to munch on this bag of Goldfish.

    7. 20 minutes left!

    8. I've been toying around with the idea of quitting drinking. Eep! Not the best for a girl who has 2 wine racks that are fully stocked at all times, but I know the extra calories from liquor is why my gut is so big.

    9. I have to stop at the grocery store after work, and I really just want a pint of Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia to go with my yoga pants and Kindle when I get home.

    10. Instead I should get on the treadmill and run when I get home.  Maybe tomorrow?

    Adding #11. 16 minutes left!

  • @wiggyslilsis - sorry about your migraines! and now I also want chocolate milk.

    @pennstated912 - your work sounds like a bunch of jerks; sorry they're doing that to you.

    @saisongbird - sorry LO is hurting you, but glad she's active!

    @amccul - congrats on reaching the half way point; how exciting!

    1. I'm really bummed that our NYE plans were messed up but am really looking forward to eating sushi tonight!

    2. I think it's finally time to start participating in HDBD!

    3. FFC: I did my nails at work this morning. Shhhhh!

    4. I'm wearing all maternity clothes today and am wondering why on earth I didn't start wearing them sooner.

    5. I REALLY hope my boss comes over soon and tells us to go home. 

    6. I'm afraid if I don't get out of work early I won't have time to take a nap and won't make it to midnight. 

    7. I've done MAYBE an hour worth of work today... and I'm not sorry about it at all.

    8. I think we are making this pregnancy "Facebook official" tomorrow.  We photoshopped a top hat and horn onto an u/s pic. DH thinks it's stupid. I'm trying to convince him it's not to be AW-ish; we have a lot of friends and family who we rarely talk to, but who will be thrilled for us and would want to know.  It would be really weird to call them and tell them, so I think FB just makes it easier. 

    9. That's all I got.

  • @nightmare_of_beauty  I'm a bad influence. 

    @amccul Your sister has lived there for over a year and a half? How have you been able to handle that?  Completely understand how you just want it to end so you can get things moved around and set up.

  • @PandPMeant2B - they are. The company isn't doing well so basically they are trying to get me to quit so they don't have to pay the unemployment. They are afraid to let me go since I'm pregnant. Obviously none of this has been said allowed, but their actions speak for themselves.

  • Sounds like a craptastic situation, @pennstated912.  Hope it gets better!

  • @brij2006 at first it was fine, and I was trying to be patient. her last relationship ended very badly and left her without a place to live and in a lot of debt several states away from any family, so I was happy I could help and that she was willing to accept our help. but now i'm over it and need my house back. she's paid off her debt and needs to start acting like a grown up. she's 26 so I think its time.
  • @amccul20 Oooh, definitely time.  You are a great sister for helping her get back on her feet though.  Is she able to maybe find a place between now and February that she could stay at till her apartment is ready.  Like a place that does month to month rent.  Try explaining to her that with the baby coming and doing updates to the house, you two need that space.
