I'm having a bit of an "I don't wanna" day. I didn't want to get out of bed, or out of the shower, or back out of bed, or leave for work.
But, now that I'm here and had some coffee things are looking up. A bit.
I think I'll be spending tonight tracing and cutting out the cut-outs for my Halloween decorations. Hopefully the cats won't get in the way too much.
How is everyone today?

We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

Re: Good Morning!
Morning! Should be a quiet but busy day at work--we're putting together a presentation on our Micronesia trips for a December round table, so that'll be fun. Tonight should be low-key, with a trip to the gym and some fajita making.
We did get an estimate on our car, though: $3,800 worth of damage and we only have to pay $100. State Farm, I heart thee right now (and us for shelling out for that type of coverage).
Good Morning! I'm frustrated b/c I'm having to figure out a client's messed up billing and my brain is just not built that way. I will write an A+ research paper in 1 day, but numbers give me a headache.
We are having record breaking high temps this week. 89 degrees F today. Boo.
Snapfish is running a deal right now- Buy 2 8x10s, get 100 4x6s free. So I ordered a bunch of wedding pics last night.
Today is not a good day for me. I was supposed to be working from home, but the damn laptop keeps shutting off on me, so here I am back in the office! YUCK. I will also end up taking a couple of hours PTO for it.
I was up from 3-4:30 with Zach. I brought him to the doctors yesterday and he has the croup. My poor baby sounds like a seal and when he cries he has a hard time breathing. Of course as I am leaving my house, I hear Christian, and now he is getting it too. I feel like a bad mom for bringing the stupid cold into the house in the first place.
I am also extremely sore. I know it is a good sore, but no taking the stairs to the 3rd floor for me today. Zumba kicked my arse lastnight.
I love hump day. Rumor has it that the MA bar results were mailed out yesterday, so I'm super anxious to get home and check the mailbox. More than likely, mine will be late cause our mailman sucks.
I'm finally feeling somewhat better, minus the coughing attacks, but that's nothing a little hot apple cider won't help along. Now I just have to get through the nausea from my ears being all filled with fluid. Hopefully my new meds will help get rid of that faster than normal. My colds always run the same cycle, so it's just a matter of waiting them out.
Sikes* Can I come visit and soak up your sun? It's finally warm here, but I got drenched this morning getting out of my car.
Ummm...that's every day.
I can only hope that today is better than yesterday. It would be hard pressed to suck more short of catastrophic injury.
I need to do payroll this morning (one of several things that didn't happen yesterday) in order for us to get paid Friday, so I should be pretty busy today.

Good Morning, Ladies. Another busy day - work won't let up until Thanksgiving. But, I got a complimentary email from our director, so that kind of made my morning.
Snapfish is also having a sale on all their 12x12 calendars - half off through Thursday the 28th. Coupon code 50FALLCAL
Have a great day, everyone
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
Of course you can. My old roomate was supposed to come visit in 2 weeks, but had to cancel her trip. So our guest room is open!
Good morning!
Yesterday our post doc from Iran came in wearing a toque (that would be a wool hat for you 'mercans) and scarf. It was like, 20C yesterday. Right now she's got the heat cranked way up. These have been the warmest days we've had in weeks.
Today I smartly wore a tank top with a zip up hoodie so I can shed the hoodie if I feel too warm. Hopefully this will keep the peace.
Baby #2: Surprise BFP 9.19.12, EDD 5.24.13, natural m/c 10.19.13 at 9w
Good Morning!
Today has to be better than yesterday that is for sure. We got way too much yucky news yesterday and I am ready to forget about that one. Bad things come in 3's right?
1. DH's business house (he owns group homes) the roof was replaced 1 week ago. Well this lovely wind we have been having blew the shignles off so they get to repair it again.
2. The seller's realtor is trying to delay our closing to get more of a comission.
3. FIL/MIL have the coolest willow tree that hangs over their pool, well not anymore. It crashed into the pool and both are no longer...
We are still hoping we can close tomorrow, otherwise we may be moving forward with legal actions. Short sales are great! (Insert sarcasm and a lot of it)
Due to my lack of sleep, I'm in a bit of "i don't wanna" mode too.
I don't wanna exercise but I'm going to try and bust out 5k at noon to see what kind of time goal I should set for my race in 2 weeks. I never run just 5km so I'm usually running it slower than I would race and I haven't raced that distance since the '90s.
I don't wanna make cupcakes for my church class tomorrow night but I have to since I volunteered to bring snacks.
After my run I'll have lunch and then head out for my massage.
My new office likes to schedule meetings about future meetings. And I have to go, because management says so. I got absolutely nothing done yesterday due to this.
I'm taking an online class for Dreamweaver, I've done fairly well 80% and above on all my quizzes. He said the assignments were extra if you really wanted to get a feel or were failing quizzes. Yesterday he decided that we're gonna just build off all the assignments from the semester, so here I am, backtracking 8 assignments. I have to take the final exam by next Wednesday. And still have 4 quizzes and apparently the last 4 assignments to do. Wouldn't be so bad if I could do it at home, but I don't have a computer and the licenses for the software are more then I'm willing to shell out for work.
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
Good morning ladies. I'm sore and tired today. I also woke up to snow on the back deck already, nooooo not yet!
I painted a wall in the spare room last night so I am hoping to get some decorations up in there tonight. We will see where my motivation is when I get home!
Thanks, me too!
