Good morning!

Ugh.  I hate fake Mondays.  The drive in this morning was awful, some guy cut me off and then gave me the finger when I honked at him.  Of course that only made me honk again/longer and give him the finger, but still.  He was the jerk there.

Derek got the floor put down in our back room yesterday!  Not, like, hardwoord, but the plywood.  At least it's no longer dirt.  Yay!  I think that this will require an epic blog update.

How is everyone today?

Re: Good morning!

  • Good Morning.

    First yay for plywood!  It is a start, and I LOVE your new siggy picture.

    I am a little emotional today.  I forgot to take my happy pill Sunday and yesterday so of course when I met with the NP yesterday and she asked how it was with me going back to work, I lost it.  UGHHH I guess it just makes me realize that I am not past this PPD yet.  Took my pill today and hopefully I will have control of my emotions again in the next couple of days.  Meanwhile, I should probably try to focus on work.

  • I hate this week. Can it just be over now?

    Raynes* I'm convinced that commuting shaves time off my life. My drives to and from work actually make or break my day.

    I've been having really bad shoulder pains again, which means another trip to the doc for this girl. Probably more cortizone shots and anti inflammatories. I already had surgery and tried all of these things way back in junior high. Apparently the relief was only temporary. I think all the new yoga poses are not as great for my joints as most people would say.

    I'm super grumpy and agitated this week. Bar results finally get released on Friday, and then I am out of here for a weekend with my girl cousins. Let's hope that it's an easy week at work. My boss was less than thrilled that I might want Friday off. Jerkface!

  • Good morning.  Traffic yesterday was so easy and today it was a nightmare.  I was an hour late to work.  Granted, I left the house 45 minutes late, but that was really Jim's fault with the a.m. yoga.

    Today I get my last CSA basket.  It is supposed to have a pie pumpkin in it, which is very exciting and will definitely have a share of honey, which I have been anxiously awaiting since April.

  • Nothing too exciting here. I had a quiet night at home last night and got some more work done around my house. DH will be out again tonight so more time to myself. Oh, I did apply for two jobs last night though. With all of the drama that has been going around my office, I've decided that it might be time for a change.
  • Good morning.

    I'm exhausted I went to a the Atlanta Braves playoff game last night. Where they lost. So I'm tired from getting home so late on a work night. 

    I also have a really busy work day ahead of me.

  • Morning, all. Quiet day at work again--the boss is out and I think a lot of people took an extra day. We spent yesterday finishing up some chores and then relaxing.

    Here's hoping today goes by quickly.

  • Good morning!

    Boy was I glad I didn't have to work yesterday. (TMI warning) I'm having my first post-BCP AF and I'd forgotten how awful it is.

    I am having lots of trouble getting motivated to work today.

  • Morning ladies. My day started off crappy, dead battery when I went to leave for work. Bummer deal, I guess it's time I get around to replacing that now.

    I had school last night and again tonight, by the time Wednesday rolls around I usually feel like it should be Friday. I'm helping out on Saturday again this weekend so I know this work week will feel extra long anyways.

     I also applied for 2 new jobs last night. I have the same situation at work with all the drama. One would be a pay cut, which I don't know how well that would work out, but I'm very interested in this job. The other would be a significant raise but my schedule be craptacular for awhile. Sat-Tues, it would be four 10's. However, this one will eventually go to a "regular" work week schedule. So I can give up my life for awhile and get more money or go with the other one that really interests me but for less. Being grown up is hard. Sad Pity party for one, pity party for one seating now.

  • Happy Tuesday, Ladies!  Love the new siggy pic, raynes.  I'm baking your apple crumb pie for the big company bake-off today.  We won the floor bake-off, and now go up against the entire building.  But - I doubled the crumb topping and had a little butter spill-over in the oven.  Filled the house with smoke, set off all the smoke alarms, and had to turn on the hood blower and open all the doors and windows.  Nice for the family to wake up to - but they get the extra pie so we're good.

    Have a great day, everyone.

  • Thanks for the sig pic love folks, Derek's brother took that one for us on a family "hike" (more like a walk on some grass, but still fun) on Sunday.  I love the fall colours!

    Mmmmm, pie.  I need to make one of those pies soon.

  • I had a great weekend up at my cottage! The colours there were spectacular (there are a few pics on my blog).

    Raynes! I can't wait to hear about the laying of the plywood!

    I have an easy week ahead of me (yay!), kids are writing a test today and then working on their drama assignments for the rest of the week.

    I WILL say, I'm going to be a bridesmaid for my cousin in July, and her wedding is already all sorts of drama-rific. You may remember this disasterous wedding I went to two years ago (my cousin married a monster who chucked out my cousin [the one who's getting married] from the wedding party and then put my other [not-pregnant] cousin in a maternity dress)... well, with so many of the same players involved, it sounds like it has the potential for insanity as well.

    I will admit that this thought did occur to me... I was thrilled with my nice 32-day cycle :)

  • Hey ladies,

    I'm late to the party as always these days but:

    1. Raynes I want to see pictures!

    2. Katsblaze: hope you're feeling better soon. 

    3. Ringy: way to go with the 32 day cycle :)

    Today was lame training for classroom management, basically I could have taught the class.
