Hehe, hump day.
How is everyone today?
Dinner last night was pretty good, but not enough. I find that often happens with tapas style food. Too much nibbling, not enough eating.
Today at lunch I think I'm going to head to BB&B and look at bedding sets. Time to get moving on the 3rd bedroom makeover.
Tonight is gym and picking up some art we had stretched. Fun!

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

Re: Happy Hump Day!
Good morning. I had a good evening. I got in a workout and got a little bit of housework done. I had a very productive day at work yesterday and am hoping to keep it going today. I'm finally starting to feel like I know what's going on at my new job. I'm sure in another week though, when I'm on to a new project, I won't be feeling the same way.
Tonight I plan on getting in another workout. Otherwise, no major plans.
Good Morning!
We took a nice long walk last night which helped my achy body. The weather was so nice. Then I potted a couple of plants that I am pretty excited about hopefully I don't kill these ones.
Today, just getting through the day and then home to get some stuff done around the house, maybe even a little grocery shopping. (my most hated chore)
I hope everyone has a great day!
It's rainy and I'm feeling super stabby today. The dogs decided they wanted to run around the yard and drink from every rain puddle out there. I just know I'm going home to a mess after work tonight, which is making me ponder going out to dinner by myself and hoping DH gets home before me. He was absolutely useless this morning in helping me get them all inside so I could get ready for work, too. It doesn't help that I was up all night with the crying and whining from them because it was raining then, too.
These are the days they're lucky they're cute.
Off to a staff meeting for what will probably be the most boring hour ever. Hopefully you all have better days than me. Happy humping!
Good morning! Not too shabby over here; just getting through the workday is the goal. We had a counseling session last night; last one for now, but we'll probably meet with her again after we've done a few other things. Right now, we're on pause with the kid thing. And we're good with that.
Tonight will hopefully be the gym and an early dinner. I'm exhausted, though; at 3am, someone in our local shopping strip started doing loud work that probably woke up the whole neighborhood. They didn't stop until 6am (when it was time to get up). I was this close to calling the non-emergency police line; I'm sure they violated some noise ordinances given how close they are to a residential area. H went over this morning to figure out who it was; it was the deli. I kind of want to go over there tonight and ask what the hell?
Hope everyone has a good day!

Good morning!
Just here at work trying to get some stuff done. This week just hasn't been so great. My mom called me last night to tell me that she had to go to the doctor because one of her eyes was bothering her with some pain. So it turns out she has some kind of weird infection that is not looking very good. I just hope the doctors can do something about it. I am super worried and I know she is too.
Oh rebaan, I'm so sorry.
Yesterday was beautiful, and I even go to go to Zumba. Holy aching today. The instructor turned her Tuesday night classes into a Boot Camp Zumba. Umm yeah I can hardly walk to day, but that is a good thing.
It's yucky today, and the only thing exciting is I get to have lunch with some old coworkers. Soup, Salad, and breadsticks from Olive Garden. Can't go wrong. Yum. Otherwise, I have a waxing appt after work, and can't wait. My eyebrows need some major cleaning up.
Have a great day everyone another busy day at work for me!
Hugs reba. I had my fingers crossed for you.
I had a bad driving lesson last night that put me in a bad. I can't wait for this to be over. Today is pretty quiet - just work and home. Taking a day off from exercise. Maybe we'll do some work on our summer holiday planning - still undecided but leaning towards Croatia. And it looks like some friends of ours from the US may join us, which would be awesome.
Cecilia arrived 12 October 2012
Morning everyone. Not too much is new over here. Now that vacation is only about 2 weeks away, I am seriously counting down the days. I have a bunch of work to get done between now and the time we leave, so I'm trying hard to stay focused. Aside from that, I can't believe it's only Wednesday. This week is dragging big time.
Reba, glad you are feeling a bit better, but I'm sorry about the BFN.
Dora, hope everything works out with your mom!
Awe Man,
Sounds like everyone has had a bit of a rough few days, I hope that things start getting better as the day progresses. Yesterday was alright, B is really starting to stress over school now that they aren't on strike anymore he has some catching up to do, along with fundraising for this summer. It has been a trying few days. When he gets like this it is really rough on me because he is extremely negative and there is really nothing I can do.
Today I am working, then making my way to the gym hopefully. When he gets like this it really starts to drain me.
Good morning!
Reba - I'm so sorry about your BFN. ::Hugs::
I had another late night last night. I ended up having to go to a last minute marketing meeting for work to finish putting some details together for a business after hours party we're throwing. The up side is we did it at a bar with plenty of drinks and appetizer to get the creative juices flowing.
Tonight will be another late night, I'm having dinner at Brio with a couple coworkers for a casual interview with a potential new paralegal.
Good morning. It's cold today and is supposed to snow.
Since I have water back today (hopefully all day) I have some laundry and dishes and other cleaning to catch up on. I also have to call around and find some sponsors for the fundraiser I'm hosting in June and go get the rest of the supplies I need to finish a big order.
Good morning ladies. As of today I am off work. My OB doesn't want to take any chances since my fluid has decreased but is nothing to worry about yet. Thankfully she hasn't brought up an induction or c-section so I'm still hoping to go into labor on my own. Anyway, I'm doing some cleaning and organizing and have a few errands to run. Hope you all have a great day.
Reba - *hugs*
Dora- Wow, I hope they can figure out what's wrong with your mom.
It seriously feels like Monday. I stayed home sick Monday due to a stomach bug, I finally got to work yesterday mid morning, only to be miserable and I really should have stayed home. But of course this place is still a wreck from me being gone for 2 weeks and I can't make anyone happy.
I cooked a fabulous dinner last night, but after cooking it, I wasn't hungry. DH knew I wasn't feeling well, so I got to cuddle up on him and doze in and out all night. It was perfect.
Reba: *hugs*
Dora: keep us posted on this strange infection
I'm just applying for more jobs today, yesterday I applied for 9 different positions with in my district and for 6 jobs in other districts. Saturday there is a job fair where all 3 districts will be there, so I better bring my A game. I really really want to get into Elmbrook district so hope they like me. I want to enroll C there next fall, so it would be awesome if I worked there too.
Tonight I have class, so I'm going to miss playing with my munchkin, but then I can come home and kiss her and then relax with some wine.
Reba: So sorry for the BFN.
Dora: Hope everything is okay with your mom...keep us posted.
We had a half PD Day at school, and they let us go at 1pm, which was awesome. Once I stop being lazy I am going out to town and run some errands. I just spent the past 1/2 hour saving our baby fish. We (and by we I mean DH) agreed to take about 30 black mollies off our friends hands. When I got home today, about 25 of them had gotten sucked into the filter (and somehow survived). I was able to get all of them back in the tank, and they seem to be doing okay.
After errands, it's cooking dinner, and setting up more little things around the house.
Today was alright. Worked at the small hospital so I got to carpool with DH. It was pretty busy at work so I was running around all day.
Came home, yoga'd, made dinner and now here I am. I'm debating going to the gym for some quick cross training. I REALLY want to run because it's beautiful outside but my knee is a bit sore but I know I need to take today off.
