Third Person Thursday
Shelley doesn't want to be at work today. She would rather be home cleaning the house and sleeping.
Shelley has a lot of reporting to get done today that was supposed to be done yesterday. Shelley does not have the motivation to do any of it.
Shelley is waiting for her SIL to respond to the FB message she sent yesterday. Once Shelley gets a response she will know all of her DH's immediate family knows she is pregnant and can finally put it on FB.
Shelley feels a ton of relief not having to try to keep quiet about the pregnancy and is glad that word is finally spreading around the factory. The machinists all seem genuinely happy for her. It makes Shelley feel good.
Shelley is looking forward to visiting her family in a couple weeks. Shelley hasn't seen her parents since New Year's Day and hasn't seen her sister, neice, and nephew since Thanksgiving.

Re: Third Person Thursday
Stacey is sad, exhausted, crampy, irrationally emotional, un-motivated and pissy. She blames all of the above on that b!tch AF. Stacey can't wait until the weekend.
Stacey is glad Shelley gets to see her family soon and is glad her co-workers at the factory are excited for her!
Mar has the day off and was hoping to go into DC with her hubby and have a day date around the museums. But he has to go to the range and train people, oh the joys of him being a firearms instructor... Hopefully not many people will show up and he'll be home early so we can still go some where and do something.
Mar should be cleaning the house, and running errands, but she's planning on sitting on her ass until 11... if not later.
Mar has been feeling run down recently. And she can't find a way to get out of her funk. Normally she would go ride her horse... but she's not allowed until after the baby's here. And going out there just to groom him, puts her in more of a funk cause she feels guilty about not riding him. Maybe she'll try some retail therapy...

Our bean was born on 05-19-11
jess is taking zoey to get pictures taken at 11 and although that seemed like a great time judging by her schedule the past week, today it seems she has changed it up. from the looks of it, zoey will be probably sleeping during picture time.
jess is pissed because she has like 3 people going with them to ensure zoey smiled. jess is wondering if a 6.5 month old looks just as cute as a newborn sleeping or just awkward? LOL
Zoey Emma 08.18.10
Alicia wants Jess to know that of course a 6.5 month old looks just as cute as a newborn sleeping, especially since it is Z!
Alicia thinks she needs to tell her boss sooner rather than later that she is KU. Alicia works with a chemical that is not soo good and really doesn't want to go near it. Alicia is nervous about telling her boss =/
Shelley thinks that it is a good idea to tell sooner in that case. Shelley told the day after she got her BFP because she is near flammable metals and fluids all day and want to make sure the fumes/dust in the air wouldn't be a health issue. Luckily they are not, but part of Shelley's job requires occasional lifting which she is no longer allowed to do at work even though she is not under any medical restrictions on lifting yet.
Shaina agrees and says Zoey's pictures will be cute, sleeping or awake.
Shaina just got back from the derm for her annual mole check. Nothing to report and Shaina was happy she remembered to shave her legs this morning, could have been awkward.
Shaina is not happy her DH scheduled a bath estimate for 730am tomorrow. Does he not realize that Shaina's day off is about sleeping in?
Shaina's house is a wreck. She hopes DH cleans it tonight when he gets home since he scheduled the appt.

Alicia just got done telling her boss and it went just fine
He was ok with me training someone else to handle the nasty chemical, so YAY for that. But it is kinda weird being out in the open about it.
Whitney is a silly worrier and nervous that it seems her pregnancy symptoms are all subsiding. She is pretty sure everything is okay but just wishes something would stick around so that she felt like she really was pregnant.That or that she could have an ultrasound every week.
On top of the prometrium suppositories (and their discharge) and the yeast infection she has had for weeks, her OB just called to tell her they detected a small staph infection in her urine last week. What the heck is going on down there!!!

Brie is totally tapped out this week. It seems like the requests and projects are piling up like crazy. She could use a break, and is very excited that she and Drew got their tickets for Vegas last night. Hello celebrating turning 30 by getting out of Indiana!
Brie gets to meet one of her MBA teammates next week. He's in town for the Big Ten Tournament and wants to get together. Brie is excited to have at least one face she'll recognize when the teams officially get together in May.
Brie and Drew get to move back into their bathroom tonight. Brie is thrilled to be getting settled back in after the renovation. It looks great, and now she can actually have some space to get ready in. Brie didn't realize just how much smaller the guest bathroom is than the master.

This post always reminds me of that Seinfeld episode where that guy (Jimmy) is hitting on Elaine at the gym!
DD: 6-24-11
EDD: 9-20-14
Tania feels like crap, again, today. She is pretty over feeling sick all of the time.
Tania had her beta today and feels like it was pretty pointless. She knows she's not pregnant, but she is going to pay $95 for them to tell her that she's not. Great!
Tania was really excited to go get her business license today, so she's hoping that she'll feel better this afternoon so she can go.

Welcome to the dark side
Autumn is SO tired of studying for her test and is waay past ready for May 13th...
Autumn doesn't feel like herself this week.
Autumn wishes she had excuse to sleep right now. But noo, her husband will come in and wake her up if she's napping in the middle of the day and ask her what's wrong with her. Does there always have to be a reason?!
Stacey is dieing because she LOVE Seinfeld and always thinks of that episode every Thursday too. The funny thing is that Stacey's boss always refers to himself in the third person and it often confuses her.
LOL! Stacey wishes she did too. Actually, Stacey wants a set up like Kramer. She's quite certain he didn't have a job and got to lounge around in a robe and smoke cigars all day every day
