Re: Confession anyone?
Surprise, surprise... I'm nervous for my half marathon. I also feel bad that I'm leaving DH Friday night and Saturday with a messy house! I'm going to try to clean the kitchen, do some laundry and generally tidy up tonight because I'm leaving for Fargo straight from work on Friday.
I feel bad that I can't stop nesting at work. Ug. It seems I get busier all the time. I have some must-do's on my desk and many more little items that I should do but don't get to quickly enough. Am I just lazy or not a hard worker? Somtimes I can stay focused for hours and be super productive, but usually that doesn't last unless I have LOOMING deadlines. But, I guess I'm only human.
That's all for now.
My interview went as well as can be expected. I'm never sure if it was good or not, the ones I think go well I don't get and the ones I find to be not as good seem to be the jobs I get offers for. So I don't know. I am just glad that I wasn't laughed out of the office.?
I was off from work yesterday and today but my kitchen still looks like a bomb went off in it. I hate hate hate dishes. And I could save them for Kevin, but he is SO bad at dishes, they are still dirty when he is done and I end up washing things again.
In an attempt to cut down on grocery shopping, I am planning on inventory-ing my shelves, making up a list of what we have, something that I can keep track of and keep up on. I'll let you know how it goes. ?
I dispise dishes also...they are evil! I am never able to cook dinner then clean it up all in one night...I know its horrible, and Dh makes a mess when he does them so I just do them normally in the morning.
We have a lady at work who is pregnant via surragate. Well she is out of town finding out what the sex of the baby is...and this lady heard and just sent an email to the entire company saying its a boy...wouldnt you want to wait and tell everyone in person yourself....ugh I just cant get over how rude I think this is.
I also want to confess....Kelsey was sick last night just with congestion and i believe its just a cold...no fever and this morning she was coughing pretty bad but still no fever and I still sent her to my MILs. I felt awful doing this I wanted to bad just to stay home and take care of her, but I couldnt because I needed to work today...uhhh I just called and checked on her and she seemed fine, so we will see.
Meagan - yay again for the interview. I really hope that you hear good news soon! Do let us know how your grocery inventory-ing goes. I am always running out of things (like milk or eggs) after we've just been to the store. We have the typical list on our fridge for stuff we run out of, but we still forget to pick up things.
Brit - so sorry that Kelsey is sick. It must be hard to balance that with work. i.e. you need to go to work because you're busy, but you want to stay home with your girl. I hope she gets well soon! I have a hard time making myself stay home if I'm sick (only if I'm busy at work).
well i'll jump on the bandwagon, i hate doing dishes to, infact the dishes from last night are still in the sink. EW thats so gross, but I just couldn't do them last night. I had homework out the ying yang and Chris wasn't home to do them so they are still sitting in the sink.ugh i totally do not want to do them when I get home from work but they arent going to do themselves obviously.
hmm, i really dont have to much to confess. The dr I work for is bi-polar i think, and i wish he would take his meds regularly bc he is driving me crazy. yesterady he yelled at our ofc mgr and told her he would fire us all, then today he bought us lunch and is joking around? Uhm excuse me? please take your meds, my nerves cant handle all this nonsense!
on a happier note, H is going to talk to one of his old bosses to see if he can go back to work for him. He heard that they are needing somone and Chris really has been wanting to get out of his current job and he loved his job there. It is less pay but it's a better environment. If he gets the job we will be moving back to my hometown. Which is exciting, but not at the same time. I realy want to move closer to the beach, which my hometown is not. But it is the perfect opportunity for me to find a new job, bc as i mentioned earlier, its crazy here. I'm so tired of it. I know i've said this like 1000 times, but i'm really hoping that H gets this job and we can get the heck outta this county and i can get a new job!
My office is hot as hell in July. Seriously, about 90 degrees and no way of turning it off. I am about to combust.
One of my stoopid male co-workers approached me today and said, "Wow, you're still working? Shouldn't your last day be soon?" Um, no...I just hit third trimester today and my last day will be December 31st, thankyouverymuch. Some men are effing clueless.
I will be out of the office until Tuesday and am so happy about it. I had a dozen things that I really should have done before I leave today and didn't and really don't care much right now.
Canon 50D, Canon 50mm f/1.4, Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8, Speedlite 430EX II
Jen - wow, some people are fairly clueless. BTW - do you mean that your office is super hot now in October instead of July? In any case, I hope it changes soon!
I'm glad you get to be out of the office for a bit. Somtimes that is a wonderful thing!
