I just spilled my strawberry smoothie all over the table, and all over a big thick document related to my house.
I'm not too worried about the document, it's just a package of information about the new condo corporation and I do have a scanned copy. But I am sad about losing my smoothie.
Anyone's day starting off better than mine?

Re: Good morning!
No.... I just got a BFN this morning. Looks like I'll be doing some online shopping to compensate for this crappy start to my 2nd favorite holiday....
Happy St.Pat's and Happy March Madness!!

So sorry about the BFN ehayes
. Some retail therapy def sounds in order.
I am really wishing I called out today. My family has a tradition where we do not work on St. Patty's Day. It started with my grandfather, and has continued with my dad, and now me. But the kids are still testing, and I thought I was running the risk of getting fired. So here I sit.
DH and I are meeting for drinks after work (our first time going out on the main drag of our new town), so I am looking forward to that. Depending on how tipsy we get, we may paint trim tonight. Painting should be completely finished by tomorrow night.
Happy St. Pat's everyone!!
Boo to BFNs. Boo to spilled smoothies!
Happy St. Pat's all! I'm in my green (and orange, thankyouverymuch). 24 hours from now I'll be on a plane to DR and I'm excited!! I also have a crap ton to get done before I leave.
Poor Meka barfed this morning (at least I think it was her). Derek didn't feed that cats before we went to bed last night, and she was bothering us alllllll morning (from, like 4am on) for food. He went down to feed them when he got up, but I guess she got overly excited and ate too fast, so up it came. Gross.
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
Sorry ehayes. Retail therapy sounds pefect.
@ringy - sorry about the lost smoothie. Cleaning up sticky spills is the worst. I never feel like I've gotten it all, no matter how much I clean it or with what.
@ehayes - Sorry about the BFN. It's been a sucky week.
I had a great time out with my BFF and her DH yesterday and I still made it to work on time for the first time in weeks, so yay me. That's about it from here.

Good morning! Erinn, sorry about the BFN.
Phil and I were supposed to go out for a fancy pants dinner tonight, but we've decided to put the money towards a charity set up with the organization we worked with in Japan. He's taking the day off tomorrow so we can go out and have a day o' fun. Last year we wandered around the Distillery District (which I love and you should go check out when in Toronto) which was a ton of fun, so we're looking for an equally awesome pocket of Toronto to check out tomorrow!
I'm totally not in to St. Patrick's day at all, I've gotta be honest. It's just an excuse for messiness. My family has been known to celebrate St. David's Day though (he's the patron saint of Wales) by eating leeks.
That's nowhere nearly as exciting. I'm sorry I even brought it up.

Good Morning.
I'm a big tired. Dh and I decided that instead of eating leftovers we would walk to Flip burger Boutique. If you watch Top Chef it's Richard Blais's restaurant. The food was amazing as always. The killer part is that I worked out hard the day before and the walk was 7 miles so my legs feel like lead weights.
ehayes, I'm sorry about the BFN.
Morning, all. Today is my fake Friday, so I'm just trying to get through the workday. My parents are flying in tonight for the weekend. Should be fun--my mom's teaching me to make a Lenten bread (capirotada) and my dad wants to get some Gordon Biersch beer, asap. It'll be nice to catch up with them. This is the first time my dad's seen our (not-so) new apartment.
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
I'm sorry about the BFN, Erinn. Definitely go shopping. It always helps.
I'm back to work today after my travels. I plan on digging through a stack of email and playing catch-up most of the day. I did walk in this morning to find that someone scheduled me for a 9am meeting this morning. Needless to say I wasn't prepared for that. I'm absolutely exhausted and am looking forward to a nice quiet night at home. I think I'll watch some college basketball and do some laundry.
Today, hopefully today is better than yesterday. Today I am going to be dying milk green, probably making some lovely cupcakes or something, and taking care of two little ones. And, most likely a not so little one when I get home.
My DH isn't doing so well and the depression is getting bad again. It is so hard to see him go through all this. I just wish we could find a solution. I am probably going to be calling the doctor and making an appointment today.
On a happier note, in the last month I've lost five pounds and five inches. I'm feeling so much healthier already, this lifestyle change has really done wonders for how my body feels and my skin looks so much better too.
Jealous! I love Blais. I think he's my favourite. (don't say anything about TC All Stars, we're behind here in Canada!)
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
Morning everyone. Ehayes, sorry for your BFN, that really blows. And Ringy, good luck cleaning up the smoothie (hope there's no pink stickiness).
Last night was an uneventful Euchre game. We met some nice ppl though. Next week is the first round of playoffs. B and I probably won't be ranked high enough to win anything, but I'm still looking forward to it.
Today is gonna be another busy day at work, so probably not much nesting for me.
so sorry again about the BFN, Erinn. keep your head up though, it'll happen for you!
I'm having an okay morning - drove myself into work (DH and I have been carpooling thanks to awesome gas prices, AND there's something wrong with my car. boo) this morning so our mechanic can look at my car.
we're not doing anything crazy for St. Pat's today, but I'm excited because it's finally upgrade day for my cell phone. I've had my POS LG Dare since before the wedding, and it's crapping out on me. so, squee?

I'm behind too. I'm taking my time watching TC All Stars. I love Blais, If I could magic up to you one of his milk shakes I would. His entire menu feels like his cooking on TC.

Good morning and Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Sorry about the BFN Erinn.
Last night I went out for drinks and appetizers at a local Irish Pub with some co-workers, we had a blast!
Today I'm going out to lunch with a friend for her Birthday. Hopefully the afternoon will fly by, I'm really looking forward to going for a walk tonight, it's supposed to be in the 70's today! Yay for spring!!
haha, figures!
I don't have a smart phone at all, and if my phone wasn't acting like a POS, I would definitely not be buying a new one. Sean has the Droid X and loves it, so I think I'm gunna go with that.

I WILL NEVER own another LG phone again. Mine was a piece of crap. The screen broke it was no longer a touch screen and I had to use it for 9 months until I could change it.
I just got the Droid X for zero dollars and I couldn't be more stoked about that. But the new Thunderbolt came out today and husb got it. Always gotta be one-upping me.
I'm 10dpo....

Maybe it is still too early, I will be sending vibes your way for sure!
PS-I just realized I put days dpo...wow, I am losing it!
Erinn - I'm sorry about the BFN, but it's possible it's too early.
My morning was off to a really busy start and I'm just now able to get online. I'm still having these dull headaches and I'm on the fence about whether to call my doctor or wait until my appointment next Monday to let her know what's going on. I'm still pretty sure they are from lack of sleep. I may or may not leave early if I don't feel better by lunchtime. Otherwise I don't have any plans for after work except to take a short nap before catching up on last night's AI. Have a good day ladies!
I'm unimpressed with today. I've been exhausted all day. So much that I skipped working out when I came home and had a nap instead. Now I'm just annoyed with DH. He's on march break this week and really hasn't picked up the cleaning and cooking like he should.
Tonight I plan on going to bed nice and early so that hopefully I feel better tomorrow and can get my long run in after work.
