Re: B&M Monday
I am tired of the board being dead!
I am also sick with another upper respitory infection thing again. Just in time... 10 page research paper and an annotated bibliography due next week and 2 finals and a response to an article due the week after. awesome....
Oh and I need to be at work this week too... so i am here.
My mom was here all weekend and she wears me out. I get along better with my mom on the phone - in person I don't deal with her well. She's a little overbearing. I'm really scared of what's going to happen when the baby is born. My mom is already refering to the baby as "hers".
* I am exhausted. I've been staying up way too late trying to get stuff done for the move
* I'm really having a harder time with moving than I thought I would. I can't stop crying about it. Excited to move, but incredibly sad about leaving our house/neighborhood
* Our neighbor's backyard is SOLID weeds that are around 8 feet tall. It's ridiculous. The picture below is from 3 weeks ago and he's not touched them. The weeds are waaaay taller than the fence now. I've called the HOA and Code Enforcement. They're supposed to tag him today. SO glad I won't have to deal with that douchebag after 7 more days!!
I'm going to play to keep the thread alive!
*I have had a freakin' sinus headache since Saturday that has managed to turn into a migraine both days. Sinus meds (and I've got one of the strongest OTC meds) are not even touching it.
*I'm about to start a very crazy, tough month at work and I'm really dreading it.
*I HATE, HATE, HATE driving in Dallas. You would not think it would be so different from FW, but it really is. It actually scares me sometimes and I'm exhaused by the time I get home. (I've been driving back and forth a few times a week for the past two weeks to see my dad, who is in the hospital after suffering two major heart attacks and going through a triple bypass and valve replacement). Now, I'm not complaining about going, just about the drive.
*Again, not complaining about going to see Dad, but if I can work my schedule a couple of times a week to take 3+ hours out of my day to drive from basically Crowley to White Rock Lake, then my little brother can certainly make the effort to drive from Irving to see Dad.
I was so glad to get to work today - the DVR computer died on Friday and the H has been going crazy without it....and driving me crazy complaining about not having it.
I am ready for summer so that I don't have to deal with school zones anymore
Yikes RJ - those weeds are outta control!
While I love Costco I hate going there - the people are crazy and I am always getting run over....why is it such a madhouse in there?
I am guessing what B&M means... but I think it got it.
*I love being a homeowner, and actually enjoy doing yard work... but I HATE how sore my legs are after 8 hours in the yard this weekend.
*It's Monday and I hate my job... enough said.
(It's my first B&M on here so I will try to do better next time! haha)
* My teeth still hurt from the wisdom tooth removal on Friday
* I'm starving but I'm still scared to eat any real food ... though I might cave soon.
* I hate daytime television and I really think I'd rather be at work right now.
I am exhausted. ?It is Monday. ?There is nothing I want more in the world then to go back home and crawl back into bed. ?EVERYTHING is getting on my nerves this morning. ?My check hasn't gone through in my account yet. ?I miss college. ?
Waaaaaaaahhhh..... ?
One more:
* The wireless on our laptop isn't working and it's highly annoying. If we want to use the net at home, we have to plug it in. Normally, that wouldn't be an issue, but since we're moving in a few days, the desk and chairs and everything are out of that room. I have to sit on the floor and use the short cord and it's uncomfortable!
I was sooo hungry after the first day and half (had all 4 of mine out in January). Broth and chicken noodle soup were not cutting it. My DH made me mashed potatoes on day 3, which were great! The only thing that made me feel like I had eaten. I took me almost two weeks before I could really eat anything too substantial. Sometimes it just hurt too much and other times it was just too exhausting to try!
Today is the first day for my baby to be at the sitters. We're taking her to a great friend who has in-home daycare. She called me earlier and I could hear my baby crying her lungs out in the background. It was too hard to listen to and I didn't want to be on the phone with her anymore. I miss my baby and it's only Monday.
RJ - That picture is crazy. It does remind me though that we took our kids to the park in Saginaw and walked through the neighborhoods a couple weekends ago. We passed at least 3 orange violation stickers on houses in under 200 ft.
Can you call her and try to talk to her about how it makes you feel when she calls the baby hers? Maybe set some ground rules for when the baby gets here. Sorry that has to stink.
* My tooth is still bothering me. I had to have a retreat done on a root canal because the original dentist left metal in my tooth and it got infected. It still hurts.
* My DH cant seem to pick up his dang clothes off the floor. I told him if the clothes are not in the laundry basket to be washed then I dont wash them.
* It is not November yet.
* ^ This.
*My head is killing me. Sinus headaches suck. And I can pretty much plan on feeling this way until around September.
*I do not feel like working today. At all.
We've had the conversation a couple of times. I've already told her she's not allowed in the delivery room, she will not be staying at my house after the baby is born and she has to let DH and I handle the baby on our own. Maybe it's time to bring it up again....
I have a lot of weight to lose and not a lot of time or self-control to do it.
I wakeboarded my best EVER on Saturday, I stayed up on the board until I just couldn't do it anymore because my arms were just hurting too bad! I guess my B&M about this is that I am SO sore. Then when I was loading the boat on the trailer another boat hit me. Hard. Cracked our swim platform all the way through.
That stinks! I would have ticked!
That.
My life is feeling very disorganized at the moment and I feel like I can't get caught up.
Holy Moley those weeds are CRAZY! I first looked at the picture and was thinking "what kind of crop do they have in their backyard?" How does someone get weeds like that? Is he feeding them?
*I was full of energy this morning, but then I ate lunch and now I'm fighting with my eyelids to keep them open!
Both these things too. I keep telling myself that if I can just make it to June 17th, I will be fine.
* ?I'm so tired of house-hunting. ?All of the houses look the same, and the only way we're going to get what we want is to do a custom build, and Hubster is dragging his feet trying to make up his mind.
* ?waiting until after 10am to run this morning was a huge mistake. ?It was frigging boiling out there.?
I got my first stranger pregnancy comment today. She said she could tell in my face. What that I am bloated? hehehehe Blah!
Lol, I bet she meant you had that pregnancy "glow" about you.
