Third Person Thursday

Shelley is starting to get ready for year end at work.  Lots of planning needs to get done - especially for the physical inventory she needs to conduct over 2 days right after Thanksgiving.

Shelley is hoping the new TV DH ordered gets in real soon.  The last one has a piece of dust in one of the cables and it creates a dark spot so it is being returned today.  So now Shelley will not have a TV in her living room for a few days.

Shelley is having a hard time finding good movies on the Netflix Instant Play list that both her and DH agree on.  Not many of them look interesting.  Shelley and her DH watched Proof Of Life last night and thought it was boring.  Shelley kept waiting for it to get better... it didn't.

Re: Third Person Thursday

  • Wendy is already hungry for lunch.

    Wendy has not had any motivation to work out for quite a while now.

  • Dana is looking forward to tomorrow, her and xander will be having lunch with one of her dear friends.

    Dana wishes Alexander would feel better and want to play more, but Dana is loving the extra cuddling lately. 

    Dana, Andrew and Alexander hope FIL can come home soon, but we really hope he will be home by Thanksgiving. Spending the holiday in the hospital is no fun.

  • Brie is getting ready to take an early lunch. Since she came in early today, and has a conference call at noon, she feels pretty good about that. Brie is also DYING to get away from the extremely loud conversation her coworkers have been having about candles for the past hour. Brie wishes she was exaggerating about that. The tough part about where Brie's desk sits in the office is that she can hear all the conversations that happen throughout the day- work related and not. The other day when the managers were out, there was nothing work related all morning. Sheesh. Brie's all for getting along with coworkers, but there ought to be a limit to the randomness. Brie may have to bring in some CDs from the car to help block out the noise today.

    This is why Shelley always has her iPod on when she's at work.

    Seriously candles? Wendy cannot believe this.

     

  • Teresa is so proud of herself for getting up and going to the gym this morning before work.  Though she was probably one of 5 people in there under the age of 50 today.  But it felt good to be able to continue her gym schedule even with the change in work schedule.

    Teresa is excited for tonight when DH gets home. 

    Teresa has to try to find time this weekend to finish her Halloween costume.  Hopefully she has the motivation to do it.  She also needs to either make a mask or find one that fits her cosume well and is comfortable (this is for a masquerade ball where masks are required)

  • Teresa also thinks she might smell a little today.  She is not sure if it is the sweater she pulled out of the closet this morning (that hasn't been worn for months) or if she is still sweating from the running all the way out to the parking lot minutes after she got to work because one of her coworkers informed her she left her lights on. 

    Teresa also wishes that she kept some body spray or deoderant at her desk for these days.  She may go buy some this weekend.

  • Melissa just can't get her desk clean at school, piles of papers everywhere. She also has to call the mom of the girl she tutors. The girl said she was being sent away to a jail or something like it. Melissa talked to the parole officer yesterday. She feels bad for what kids deal with at home and because of that get themselves into other trouble.

  • Whitney was at work late last night so she got the day off today. So she is supposed to be catching up on TV shows, unpacking and doing laundry but all she is doing is watching TV.

    Whitney really wants to see her cousin who will be back in Tennessee this weekend but she really wishes that her and Ben could just hang out at home. She has something every weekend until Thanksgiving and just wants to rest.

    Now that her big trip is over, all Whitney can think about are babies again and she has a whole month of waiting until she can do anything. However, she does not want this month to go by too quickly so she can see if her diet might help things along.

    I heart Ben!!

    Oh it's true. Somebody's sister just starting a candle business with home parties and catalogs, and Brie's coworker basically gave a mini-sales pitch to some other people in the office.

  • Juliana is ready for two days off in a row, wait Juliana is dreaming!

    Juliana can't wait to get her NYC bagels from her parents.

    Juliana wishes that this cold would go away.

    Juliana also can't wait to pick up her baptismal gown that some made for Little Who out of my her wedding dress tomorrow.

    Shelley is now thinking that it's been a while since she has been to a PartyLight candle party and could use more candles since she burns them a lot in the winter.

  • Shaina is tired b/c last night she couldn't stop having lots of thoughts go through her head.

    Shaina hopes that her SIL can get over herself regarding flying for the cruise.  Oh so for 24 hours the tickets we bought were cheaper, well you know what, they're bought, we don't have to worry about how we're getting there, it was in the budget and guess what, I'm just happy MIL and her hubby are taken care of.  Seriously there's nothing I can do about it now, they are already purchased!

    Shaina is ready for her relaxing weekend in the mountains.  Shaina just wishes her camera would show up today, stupid amazon.

    Shelley read Wendy's mind! She was just thinking the same thing while laughing about Brie's coworkers. Wendy especially needs tealights, all she keeps finding are keep ones with the metal/aluminum holder thing or waaaaaay overpriced plastic ones.

    Wendy had to work late today, booooo

  • Tania is sitting in the West Palm Beach airport waiting to fly to Atlanta.  She is sooooooooooo freaking excited to see her family and friends.  She is especially excited to meet her nephew.  She is sad to leave Florida, but excited for this next part of the trip.

    Shelley might be able to help Wendy out.  Shelley has a PartyLight person that she may be able to order from online.  All teakights come in the plastic holder.  So Shelley could try to place an order for Wendy and mail it to Wendy when it comes in.

  • Mar has a headache, and has had nausea on and off today. Luckily, it's her day off. Unluckily the puppies have been screaming all afternoon so she's hasn't been able to take a nap.

    Mar officially hates the puppies today.

    My overly happy baby girl!

  • Summer is sad she just realized she won't get to burn all the candles she normally does in the winter. Her child is all over the place trying to pull up on and pull down everything that she won't risk it. Maybe next winter!

    Summer is also ready for her 3 day weekend. It's been a busy week for her and still has a long to do list ready for next week.

  • Stacey is watching the clock and waiting for it to tick-tock its way to 4:30....
  • Dani found out that she has to have Loop electrical excision procedure (LEEP) due to pre-cancerous cells found during her last pap. Dani hopes it goes as smoothly as people are telling her it will. Her sister had it so it must be hereditary. Dani is more worried about not being able to carry a full-term baby (a risk of the surgery) than the surgery.

    Dani thanks Whit for her concern. Dani's dealing with it ok. No tears thus far. Dani was told to TTA between now and the surgery, which will likely be the week after Thanksgiving. Dani doesn't think TTA will be difficult since TTC hasn't been very successful.

    Melissa just can't get her desk clean at school, piles of papers everywhere.
    Kate says THIS!!! Kate hears ya sista!

    Kate is happy because she could leave school a little early and picked up a sleepy Duncan. Now that she is home, Kate is going to clean the highchair that she and DH got at the swap meet so Duncan can have his first meal in the highchair.

    Kate is hoping that DH can get out of his funk. Her DH is very crabby and Kate doesn't know how much more she can take before she snaps at him.

    Oh Dani, I'm sorry!  That is probably very scary :(  I'll be thinking about you and praying everything turns out ok!!
