  • I have a 3 hour training this afternoon on a new software system....I'm going to need caffeine.  So.much.caffeine.

  • I just got over a horrible sinus infection (I'm not even done with the antibiotic) and now I have the cold that my kids and husband have.  I've now been sick for 3 weeks.  I'm so over this.  I'm just ready to throw in the towel.  I've been to the pediatrics office 2 times this week.   Each of my kids have ear infections.  I was up every 2 hours last night with the little one.  No wonder I can't seem to get better. 

    Ok, I'm done.  Thank you. 

     
  • Noah has another playoff basketball game tonight.  His team isn't very good, so we thought for sure that the game on Monday would be our last of the season.   They won.  (And by a lot, like 27 to 5). I'm happy for them that they won, but I am so over basketball.  SO OVER IT.   I feel awful hoping my kid's team loses tonight, but I kinda hope they do.  
  • I have so much work to do today, but I can't bring myself to get started on any of it.

    I know better than to read the comments section of a blog, article, or viral FB post, but I do it every. damn. time.  And am then left weeping for humanity.

    The tracking options for the USPS suck.  I need to stalk my package every step of the way, dammit!

  • I really want to see the Lego movie. Like so badly, but we can't work it out with our usual babysitter (and DS is going through a super cranky growth spurt, I wouldn't make my brother and SIL deal with that) and I know DH really wants to see it too so I feel bad about asking him if I can go alone. We are planning on going to Ikea this weekend, assuming it's nice on Saturday like it's supposed to be, so at least that's something to look forward to. But it's no Lego movie ;-)

    Ditto both of you..... I was out last week for our big annual meeting and worked crazy hours. Back in the office this week and just can't get motivated to do a thing..... well work related.
  • Why is it so hard to get into a fitness routine and so easy to fall out of it?! I was faithfully going to the gym through December and now, meh. And I have a 5k literally 2 months from today. I need to get my a$$ in gear, but I'd rather sit and read. Sigh.
  • I have decorators paralysis.  I'm going crazy on Pinterest, but when it comes to actually buying something and putting it on our walls I just can't do it. I also can't find curtains in the fabric color I want or a shower curtain for the kid's bathroom.

  • 1 - Todd will be 5 two months from today. Guess it is time to think about his party. Also, FIVE?!?!

    2 - I'm working on some big life changes that I can't talk about publicly yet. My brain is a buzz all the time and falling asleep is HARD. My to do list is getting epic and I'm exhausted. It's all good stuff, but I would like to feel less worn out all the time.

    3. Scubagirl - why don't you and your DH take turns going to the movie? Not as much fun as a date, but better than nothing. :-) We saw it last weekend and really enjoyed it.

    4. Heather started at the Gifted Center this week and really enjoyed it. I'm thrilled for her. Hoping for no more delays/cancellations on Tuesdays for the rest of the winter!

    5. My BFF and her son are visiting us this weekend. I can't wait to see them! I feel slightly bad that our house is not more toddler-proof, but at least there will be 3 adults and 2 big kids to keep an eye on him.

  • I had a "coffee" after lunch.  image

    It was the Mayan Mocha from Peet's.  It had so much chocolate in it that I feel like I had 4 candy bars.  Yum.  Now I feel like Tweek from South Park.  I only drink a "coffee" a few times a year so the caffeine hits me hard.  I say "coffee" because I never drank it until I was introduced to the Pumpkin Spice Latte.  I guess the PSL is kind of like an entry drug that way.  Now I have a chocolate or flavored concoction now and then but not regular coffee.  

    Now tea on the other hand, I drink that almost every day and straight up.

  • Gwen-I feel the same way with working out!!  I had been doing well for about a month....I got into a groove of being able to do about 4 days a week, usually 3 days of 30 day shred and 1 day of pilates.  Last week was super busy for us, we had stuff going on some evenings during the week (which always throws me off) and a busy weekend.  This week wasn't as bad, but I just couldn't bring myself to start back up :(  ugh.

  • I'm exhausted today. I'm a glutton for punishment and spent the last few days baking and icing a ridiculous number of cookies for a baby shower and a birthday party for a friend's kid. Then I got the bright idea to make home made jelly/frosting stuffed glazed doughnut holes for Michael's class as a birthday treat. My entire body aches from 12 straight hours in the kitchen yesterday.

    At least the stuff turned out relatively cute.
