    Win: My birthday is coming up and I'm interested to see what DH has planned.

    Whine:  I'm having a really bad IF day.  A co-worker announced her pregnancy last week and I'm happy for her as she has went through her own struggles but now she is constantly rubbing her belly and every time I go near her all I hear is her talking about her pregnancy and I get so jealous.  On top of that, we had a new contract employee start who 'thinks she's like 16 weeks pregnant but really has no idea' which makes me stabby...and now I get back to my desk to find a surprise baby shower invite in my email for a girl in another department.  It's just not fair :(

    Whine:  Dh has been a mess lately in a few different aspects of his life and I'm trying to be loving and supportive but really I'm just trying to find reasons not to be around him because I can't handle the mood swings.

    Win: My birthday and our trip to the beach is in 17 days and I'm pumped.  I cannot wait to get away for a couple of days.

    @Xan921 - I'm sorry today if a rough IF day. The universe usually holds onto all the PR things and dumps them on people at once. I hope you can find a way to go home and snuggle up on the couch with a nice glass of wine or some ice cream.

    Whine: My head is pounding, pounding, pounding today. I go from wanting to throw up and die to being semi-manageable. I came in an hour late so I don't feel right leaving early even though I deep down know I should.

    Win: I had a grilled cheese for lunch and it was exactly what I wanted and tasted amazing.

    Whine - I caught someone on my team at work falsifying their time BIG time which to me is a fire able offense as you're essentially stealing from the company. My boss is doing noting about it and I don't have enough authority to fire someone. This isn't the first time or the only issue with this person either.

    Win - I'm working from home tomorrow and that person is off Friday so I have a few days to calm down about all of it.

    Win (and AW)- I am making a picture frame wall and got all these frames for $9!! I'll be painting and hanging in the next few days.

    Whine- I've had a headache for the last 2 days. I know it's from caffeine withdrawal and lupron, but it sucks big.

    @Xan921‌ - sorry the universe is shitting in you today. Sending you lots of wine and hugs.

    @Xan921 - I'm sorry about your day. I hope you can relax and treat yourself nicely tonight  >:D<

    Win (and "wine"): I fell in love with a Riesling a couple years ago and couldn't find it again.  I found it last night, so I bought a couple.

    Whine: My supervisor is back from 5 weeks off...so, I'm longer acting AND I have to deal with her.

    ((((( @xan291 ))))) I'm sorry it's been a rough day. 

    Whine: My feet hurt from being on them all day.

    Win: I helped solve a big problem for our building, and it felt pretty good to hear "Poppies, you are awesome. Thank you" over and over again from admin. I am usually one to pass off praise, but I am pretty proud of myself (and my coworker) who figured it out!

    I had the headache from 9 am - 1 am in the morning. It was lingering this morning but on the other side. I am trying to just work slow and drink lots of water. I haven't had such a bad migraine in years. Thanks for checking in! :x
