Add your ten (more or less) things here! AWs, random, confessions, UOs, etc

mrsvedo · February 2014

1. This semester is kicking my ass. I'm in the hardest class I've ever taken and it's a frigging elective! I'm so mad that it's this hard and it's not even required for my degree.

2. Fortunately, that particular class will be done the first week of March.

3. It probably doesn't help that I have the attention span of a gnat right now. I can't focus on anything for more than like 30 seconds.

4. DH and I got our tax refund this week. It was nice because there were a lot of tuition deductions that made for a sizable amount back! Paying some stuff off which is nice.

5. I have to be to class in an hour and I'm still on the couch in my bathrobe.

6. I'm thinking about applying for a new job at work because I want out of my current department. The one I'd apply for though is a lateral move, so no pay raise (actually would be a decrease because I'd lose my shift differential) and it would mean for sure that DH and I would need daycare in the future. But it's in the department where I want to end up eventually. Will have to crunch some numbers.

7. I had pizza 3 days in a row Saturday-yesterday because apparently that's all anyone can think of to feed large groups of people. I now can't stand the thought of anything with tomato sauce.

8. I bought DH The Expectant Father as part of his Valentine's gift and when I saw him reading it yesterday my heart melted a little.

9. DH has been really sweet and thoughtful for the last week or so but part of me wonders if it's because of the pregnancy or because he's trying to build goodwill points up that he can deplete on Saturday when he goes to the really big beerfest in town and gets sloppy drunk.

10. As planned as this pregnancy was, I'm still completely overwhelmed at the thought of everything we need to get done.

1. my back hurts

2. I'm getting the house measured this afternoon for new flooring!!!

3. I have been eating waaaayy to much at lunch. like today I had a salad w/ taco meat on top and then I had some cashews, and then a granola bar. I just can't stop once I start eating.

4. I'm completely overwhelmed by work and need a nap

5. I just realized I'm wearing the same outfit today that I wore on Friday

6. my husband put ice in my nalgene this morning and its obnoxious. I could just go dump it out but i'm trying to work with it.

7. nobody has really asked me about being pregnant (like when out and about or clients) and today someone asked when I was due! about time

8. I can't wait for dinner tonight, i'm making eggplant parm and maybe pasta or spaghetti squash to go with it.

1. We slept in until 9:10 this morning! It isn't as glorious as it sounds though since I had to get up at 6:30 and tell her it was still night night time. I am just glad it worked.

2. My pets were/are driving me crazy this morning. My cat walked over my head repeatedly until I kicked him off the bed and then about twenty minutes later came back up and started poking me randomly with his claws. Then our dog got up and shook very loudly over by the door because he thinks now if he wakes up the kiddo we can get up for the day earlier. Then when he came back in from pottying he snagged Ava Nichol's cheese even though he knows better.

3. Wow that was long.

4. I feel good for day 3 in a row. Something is still funky with my blood pressure but all the general yuckyness stuff is gone for now.

5. It feels so good to feel good. That seems silly to say but it is so true. I can play with Ava Nichol. I can clean the house. I can make dinner. I am actually eating.

6. I am pretty excited for Ava Nichol's birthday party. Almost all her friends have RSVP'd yes

7. I have so much to do for her party! So much stuff to make

8. We will probably have no nap time today because of the late wake up. It will make bedtime easier but it makes my day so long and will make cleaning the living room extra difficult.

9. My medicine makes me feel hungry all. The. Time. Even while I am eating or full.

10. DH and I need to get back in the habit of working out after being gone for so long.

1. Had my u/s on Saturday, my doctor is out of office till tomorrow so I don't know what the plan is. The tech did tell me something was still there. I plan on posting about this on GP once I've talked to the doctor.

2. I woke up at 3 am not feeling good and now I'm really tired today.

3. I felt better once I got some more sleep.

4. I'm ready for spring!

5. I am craving spaghetti! Trying to avoid high carbs. I've never had a problem with avoiding sweets, it's carbs I want.

6. Confess: I love my BFF to death, but she needs to dial it down.

7. Should be getting tax refund next week, can't wait to pay off those cards!

8. I need a new wallet. My friends have talked me into having a miche purse party (most of us have one, we want new shells) and I'm thinking I may see what kind of wallets they have.

9. Book club is tonight. I want to go to see everyone and get the next book, but I have not read the last one. I attempted to and tried reading a summary and couldn't get into it.

10. We're talking about setting up a new system at work and I am not looking forward to it. With how the managers are talking, this system will be a PIA. Just the simply changes have already created a drop in our business.

1. I. hate. snow. We are currently in another snowstorm (we just had one on Saturday) and the weather channel said it was a dusting to 3 inches of snow. My arse. It looks like a damn blizzard out there.

2. Lexi started getting croup on Friday morning, then Saturday after her nap she spiked a fever of 102.8. Luckily she didn't leave the house this weekend and the virus went away. She is back to school today since she ate oatmeal before bed.

3. I made an appointment with her doctor because of her croup. I made it 2 minutes before I realized what the weather looked like. I'm highly annoyed since her doctor's office is an hour away from work.

4. My dog ate fish food on Saturday. I was able to scrape up enough off of Lexi's bed (since that's where he ate the package) to last until Sunday, but I stupidly forgot to buy more fish food. I need to buy some today at some point between the snow and the doctors.

5. I am making chicken drumsticks with mashed potatoes and corn. I might make some biscuits to go with it. I so want comfort food today.

6. I secretly want a cheeseburger though.

7. I was highly satisfied with what I ate for lunch. It was a plain iceberg salad with carrots and french dressing. Pretzel goldfish on the side, and an apple.

8. I just wish I brought more salad.

9. I had a cheesecake and red velvet dessert for my mid morning snack - I have no regrets.

10. I have been feeling pretty good yesterday and today. Knock on air that it will stay like this for a little while.

1. My MIL comes in town today for a week .....

2. I am convincing her to start packing some of our things for when we move in March. We haven't done anything and this will give her something to do.

3. We get to go see progress on the house this weekend!!! YAY!!

4. All I want all the time is sweets!!!! Like anything I can get my hands on -- this is not good!!

5. I need to start working out in a major way. I haven't done squat since K was born. Hopefully the weather will start getting nice and we can start walking.

6. It's 60* today!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

7. I like to use exclamation marks ....

8. I'm kind of ready for the Olympics to be over ... I prefer Summer Olympics when it doesn't interfere with my other TV shows and I like those events better ....

9. I like to use ....

10. I'm ready to go home ... I don't feel like being productive today.

Eggplant parm is my absolute favorite meal ever and I haven't had it in sooooo long!! I think it seriously needs to happen soon. Like, as soon as DH gets to go more than a day or two between extreme snow removal shifts. And spaghetti squash...YUM!

LuckyAngel07 · February 2014

1) I've had an awful time focusing on work lately, and today is no better. I'm so far behind where I should be.

2) I scheduled my sequential screening for next Tuesday!

3) I've only eaten a bowl of strawberries 'n' cream oatmeal and M&Ms today. And now I'm thinking about going for the chips and onion dip.

4) I should really pop open a can of fruit instead...

5) I want eggplant parm now!!

6) Bye-bye 1st tri!!

7) I got up at 7:30 and came out to the living room to get set up for work for the day; I fed the cat's, and my dog did not move from the love seat (she usually goes out for her morning pee). She didn't get up off the love seat until around 11:30!! Lazy bum, hahaha.

8) I need to drink more water today.

9) I hate having to get up from my comfy laptop set-up on the couch to have to pee all the time.

10) I ordered a Halo sleep sack at the same time I ordered the "Truffle Shuffle" onesie; the sleep sack arrived today, but I have yet to even get a shipment confirmation for the onesie. I'm gonna be pissed if I don't get it.

First, YAY!!!

Second, Zulily (that's where you ordered, right?) does this to me all the time. It's annoying that some things take forever, but I do eventually get them.

1. I've been so busy today I just realized I haven't checked Zulily yet; so much for getting stuff done in the next hour!

2. Thursday night cannot come soon enough... I can't wait to cut open that cupcake and find out if gizmo is a he or a she!!!

3. Is it possible that LO is on my bladder and causing enough pressure that I literally feel like I have to pee all the time, even right after I go?

4. No clue what's for dinner. I hope DH has better ideas than I do!

5. I sent my shower invite list to my sister today. It's not til May, but it got me really excited!

6. I've got to get on a better sleep schedule. This whole falling asleep on the couch around 9 or 10, getting up to go to bed around midnight, falling back to sleep around 1, and waking up at 5 AM nonsense isn't working for me.

7. DH's BSC ex strikes again. His son had to wear a heart monitor one day last week and she was supposed to return it to them the next day. He just got an angry call from the hospital saying they haven't received it yet and they have to turn away/reschedule other patients because of it. UGH! It boggles my mind how completely selfish and lazy some people can be...she's not even working... wtf has she been doing for the past week?!?). I guess some people were born without the ability to think of others and their situations.

8. I love DH more than anything and wouldn't trade what we have for the world, but I do often question his sanity for marrying such a piece of work. The last thing I want is to start resenting him.

9. I need a drink... but I'll settle for the chocolate peanut butter gellato that's currently in my freezer.

10. I really need to learn how to post shorter "things!" I guess I type the way I talk. Sorry, guys!

GoodWolf · February 2014

@LuckyAngel07 - Woohoo 2nd tri!

I haven't been on TN much today! That's a first in quite a while.
Starting to run again... all the way back to square one. Taking 3 months off while I felt like crap/had no energy means that even though I could've run at least 15 miles in November, I'm now starting with C25k. Better than nothing, I guess. Bonus: DH might do it with me!
I was sad because baby hadn't moved much yesterday, but I'm feeling it more again today :x I can't wait to feel it all the time! Best ever.
No motivation to work... again.
I get a 10 minute chair massage at work on Thursday!
Sciatic pain has already started. I've had it occasionally before getting pregnant, so this doesn't really surprise me. But still, owie. I need to stretch out more.
Baby registries, nurseries, figuring out CD'ing, etc. is so overwhelming. I'm procrastinating. I peek into it every once in a while but haven't spent more than 15 minutes on any of it.
It's so windy today! It's rainy off and on, and it's been raining sideways. I want to be at home snuggled in bed with all of my animals.
That's all I've got today...

1) Yes, I ordered from Zulily. The funny thing is, the tracking on the Halo sack that I got today says it's estimated to arrive Friday, while the tracking on the onesie that hasn't arrived says it's estimated to arrive today. Uh...I think they've got that backwards.

2) My BIL, as I've mentioned, has a total piece of work selfish biotch of an ex as well. My sister has told me that he had some pretty low self-esteem/self-worth issues when he was with her and probably didn't think he could do any better at that time. It's definitely nice to see how they've grown since then, but it sucks when they're stuck tied to that person for the rest of their lives!

saisongbird · February 2014

1) Little girl didn't let me sleep last night. I'm achy and nauseous and can't get comfortable.

2) I called DH and said I'm not cooking tonight and that I might be asleep when he gets home. But I can't find a comfortable way to lie down.

3) Little girl's furniture came yesterday and we did a lot of work in her room. I still have more to do. I want to share pics but the OCD part of me doesn't want to share until it's done.

4) Lightening crotch sucks.

5) I really don't want to go back to work next week. (School is on vacation right now.) I'm waddling and my feet hurt and I'm kinda just over everything. And I will have nearly 6 weeks until my due date!!

6) DH is a saint for putting up with me.

7) I'm watching the tie-breaker curling game right now. It's really good curling!

8) I think I pulled a muscle in my right butt cheek. This is not helping my waddling or my sleeping positions.

9) Did you ever just reach a point where you wanted to say "I want my mommy?" I think I reached that point today. I'm just generally cranky and whiny and have reached the "why did I want to do this?" stage.

10) Sorry for sounding like a whiny brat. I'm so uncomfortable and tired of putting on a happy pregnant face for the world.
