Good morning!

Well, we've booked the trip to DR.  Over the course of the day yesterday the price dropped by around $200 pp, which is totally awesome.  Thankfully, we got in at the cheaper rate!  Our flight leaves at 6:20am on March 18th, which means we need to be at the airport at 3:20am, which means we need to leave our house around 2:30.  Fun?

Nothing much happened last night.  We watched HIMYM and Glee.  Tonight Derek will be working late, so I might go do some shopping.

How is everyone today?

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

Re: Good morning!

  • I got a new pillow to sleep with, thinking it would help some aches and pains. I'm pretty sure it made them worse. Now I have crazy knots in my shoulder and back that I'm praying don't turn into a headache. There will be a heating pad in my near future when I get home.

    Last night I was feeling cruddy. When I told DH I was gonna crawl into bed, he took that as an invitation to invite all the furbabies for a slumber party. They love playing on the bed, but I can't stand all the fur they leave behind. Not to mention, I really didn't feel well and just wanted to curl in a ball and die. They're all so lucky they're cute. Can't help but smile.

  • Woohoo for vacation at a cheaper price!  Sucks about the early morning flight, but it should be worth it.

    I pushed myself to work out last night and glad that I did.  Now lets see if I can be as motivated today!  I'm really trying to get my momentum going.  Happy that it's hump day and the weekend is in sight.

  • Good deal on the vacay, raynes.  I wouldn't even mind getting to the airport that early for such a cool trip.

    Feeling better, finally, but still tons of work to do.  I'm so tired.

    Have a great day, everyone!

  • Good morning ladies! I had an early start today at work so I will definitely be exhausted by the end of the day. Tonight I just have an engineering banquet to attend so I'm pretty excited.

  • Oh Raynes good for you. I have been to the airport that early for a trip. It was the day after the wedding.  Well worth it though.  We slept as soon as we got to the resort.

    I am working at home as the boys have a doctor's appt in a little bit. DH is sick, and now I think I am getting his damn cold. Not good.  The boys are overly fussy and this will just add fuel to the fire.

    Anyhow, have a great day ladies!

  • Last night I watched sreihing's Buckeyes beat up on my Illini (as predicted), and then watched Glee. I went to bed early as I'm still battling this cold. Today is another day at work. I'm getting registered to take a training class that I'm actually kind of excited to go to.
  • Morning! Not much going on over here, but I'm very glad it actually feels like a Wednesday. Work should be quiet (well, except for all the government shutdown panic) and tonight I have a run scheduled. I'm thinking about signing up for two races today just for the hell of it--I'm so excited my running's rebounding! If the government does shut down and I'm out of work for two weeks, guess what I'll be doing every day? 

    Here's hoping today hurries along. Have a good one, ladies.

  • Good Morning Ladies!

    Raynes-Yay for the trip, that will be so fun. We loved our trip to DR!! 

    My night was pretty low key.  DH went to the Wild hockey game with a friend. 

    Tonight, we are thinking about doing some yoga, I really want to stay in shape and maybe going for a walk. I am so ready for all of the ice and snow to melt so we can walk outside normally again. I miss our walks!

    I hope everyone has a great day!

  • I just got home from a dinner for one of E's coworkers who is leaving to go back home to London.  It's crazy, the longest internship offered is 6 months so people are leaving all the time, but it's still a nice excuse to get together for dinner.  

    Starting the new job tomorrow, yay!

    Raynes, yay for booking your trip, I'm sure it will be an awesome getaway. 

    Now jumping domestically.

    Well that was a crazy couple of years.

  • After last week's accidental weight loss success, I decided to actually pay attention this week.  It gives me something new to be OCD about.  That said, it makes me cranky.  Plus the fertility meds make me cranky.  And I'm so sleep deprived, which also makes me cranky.  I'm just not fun to be around right now.  I can't wait for this week to be over.

  • G'morning!

    Raynes your trip sounds fantastic!

    We're trying to squeeze in some time for a vacation ourselves but our next two months are looking ridiculous. We have various commitments early March, closing on our house and condo mid-late March, and 2 concerts and Easter during April. Not to mention that V is trying to schedule his final defense somewhere in there. *Perhaps* early April. But for now, V's defense date is the priority!

    Last night I watched sreihing's Buckeyes beat up on my Illini (as predicted)

    I thought of you last night! some of your guys were shooting lights out! 

    They were. I'm actually in a Big 10 pool with some co-workers. I picked OSU by 14. At least I won some points off of the game. I think it's funny too...I've been to 2 Illini games this season, one of which was the OSU game. I thought of you at that game as well. 

  • Hi all.  Last night, I fell asleep at 8:00 while watching BL and then totally overslept today until about 7:30.  Guess I really needed the sleep.

    Today is gonna be a pretty busy day at work, followed by Euchre tonight.  Aside from that, not too much is goin on.

    Hope everyone has a great day.  And Raynes, I'm totally jealous of your trip (even if mine is only an extra month away).

    Big 10 pool sounds awesome - wish we did something like that! It's too bad we weren't at the same OSU/Illinois game together - college bb gtg would be a riot!

  • Good morning ladies, I had school this morning and now I'm at work. I'm pretty caught up so I'm hoping to finish some little projects that have been put on hold. Tonight is homework as usual and making something to feed the sick husband.

    I can't wait for Friday, I swear it's not only Wednesday!

  • Hey ladies! Guess I missed morning for most of you!

    I wasn't feeling well last night and did absolutely nothing. I felt bad, because DH straightened up the house since the cable guy is supposed to come fix our phone/internet/dvr's today.

    We're supposed to get snow, and it's supposed to be a nightmare. I'm secretly hoping it's enough for a snow day.

  • I may or may not have gone to bed at 8 last night Yes  I was just wiped out...this week is kicking my ass.

    This morning I got into school at 6:45 (which is normal for me) and then decided I wanted to totally move my room around, including my giant desk that hasn't been moved since I've been at the school--at least 6 years.  I did all this in the 55 minutes before I had kids come in.  Sadly, it was the most productive hour of my day.

    I ran intervals when I got home this afternoon, and now I am deciding whether I want to make paninis for dinner tonight, or give in and let DH take me out (which he LOVES to do, but I've been trying to be better about eating out lately...)  We'll see...
