TGIF

Starting this early this morning....

We're doing a major layoff at work today so sleep wasn't happening. I think I'm safe, but my company has been known to say you're safe and then call you in individually and let you go. It's going to be a rough one.

Hitting up the outlets with my mom tonight for some shower gft exchanges and to pick up some postpartum stuff for me (comfy pjs, cheap underwear, etc.) and then hanging out with her all night.

The rest of the weekend is baby laundry and organization and refusing to leave the house because the highs are in the single digits with wind chills in the -20s. Too freaking cold to go outside.

Anyone else got anything good??

Re: TGIF

  • @simsk3887‌ - oh how nerve wracking. So hopeful your company keeps its word and you are not affected by the lay off!

    Relaxing tonight and hopefully sleeping in tomorrow. Heading to Whole Foods to get the makings for dinner Saturday night when Mr comes home. Sunday cleaning the house and hopefully putting up the curtains in the nursery.

    Hope you all have a great weekend!!

  • @simsk3887 - How stressful! I hope today goes well for you.

    Today is my LAST day of work! WHAT!? I had my OB appt yesterday and she did an impromptu ultrasound to check the heart instead of using the doppler so we saw our little girl still head down and lowering. That made me feel better about today being my last day.

    Tomorrow we have no plans for V Day... maybe cooking dinner and a movie. We never really celebrate besides getting a card and eating chocolate.

    Sunday we should be going to pick out a reclining glider chair and pick up our crib! Yay!

  • @simsk3887 - Yikes, I hope it works out for you today. Good luck. 

    @sewilson33 - Yay for the last day of work and surprise ultrasounds!

    We always make a nice dinner at home, have fun cooking together, and enjoying dinner. That was the plan, but DH is sick, so we may postpone until he is feeling better.

    No other plans this weekend besides watching my mom's dog since she is going to visit my brother SIL in anticipation of their new little one!

    @sewilson33 Happy last day of work!!!!  

    XP from Money Matters

    Tonight: No plans.  So I will clean.  Story of my life.

    Tomorrow:  We have plans to sit down to breakfast with my parents and discuss the future of the farm now that my brother isn't here to take over.  We have to decide whether or not it's in our best interest to have my H come on to take over, or set up someone else.  I really have no idea how I feel about the whole thing.
    Then my parents are helping me get some last minute house things done, and H and his dad are working on rebuilding the staircase in the room we're remodeling.
    At night we have plans to make the 1.5 hour drive to meet my BFF and her boyfriend halfway between our houses, and go out for pizza and to see 50 Shades.  I really don't think the boys have any clue what they're getting themselves into in that theater.

    Sunday: Church are our only plans.

  • Drive by post - I'll catch up on everyone's weekends when I get the chance tonight.

    Made it through layoffs but as a project manager I got to escort a bunch of people through the office to pack up their things. Not fun at 8 months preggo. Stepped out now to force feed as I'm feeling pretty nauseous about the whole thing. One lady had been with us for 5 years and another guy told me this morning that his wife is pregnant. Ugh today sucks. And there's talk of another one next week.
  • @simsk3887‌ Glad you are safe, but sorry you had to do that! It is definitely no fun.

    Tonight- DH is doing a ride along with on of our friends. I will probably run errands and start to make a list of things I want to register for/plan the nursery.
    Tomorrow- haircut in the morning. We will either go to a low key restaurant tomorrow night or I will make dinner (we aren't big valentines people).
    Sunday- Relaxing/getting ready for the week ahead. Maybe go to bru to test out baby stuff.

  • @simsk3887 - I am so happy you are safe but that is so crappy for them to put you in that position!

    @brij2006 - My heart breaks for you and your family... I am so sorry you have to have that talk. Take care of yourself.
