Saturday Poll

Watcha doin' right now? What have you done today so far? Any plans for this evening?

I haven't done a whole lot today. For some reason I'm exhausted today. DH went out to meet a friend who never showed up! So it's been a great day. I just filled out a job application that was murder to get through!! The stupid program wouldn't edit properly so if I changed something so I hope I don't look like a moron for it saying UNified instead of Unified. Plus it was just really long and I got a message saying that I will get an assessment to do by email before they consider interviewing me. Great! I also did some other job search work today. We're going to order pizza and hang out at home tonight. I'll pop a Murdoch Mysteries DVD in... maybe we'll start looking at apts again since we're going back to L.A. in a week to look at ones that look promising.

Re: Saturday Poll

  • Right now: I am sitting on the couch with my DH watching 27 dresses. Trying not to think about food. look at food. or smell food.

    Earlier today: I was working from 3:30-2:30 and barfed about 6 times. I have begun my list of things I will never eat again: celery & pb, bean burrito, hamburger, grapes....I don't think our little mushroom likes protein

    This evening: I will be laying in bed hoping to fall asleep before I barf again. Only to wake up at 2:45 to do it all over again. 

    I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!

  • We got up this morning and did laundry and watered the lawn and just enjoyed our house.

    Around 3 we went into "town" since we kind of live outside of where the main stores are and did some grocery shopping and picked up a few more baby things for my cousin's baby shower in a few weeks. Read as "I have spent way too much money on a baby that is not mine". 

    Tonight we plan on ordering pizza and watching movies. I plan to keep this cute puppy curled up in my lap and stay on the couch as long as I can!

    Right now I'm taking a little computer break. Today so far, we went to a pot luck event at my daughter's preschool from 10-12, I did two loads of laundry, I went to the gym, then I went food shopping, then I made dinner for DD, which she didn't eat, now I'm waiting for her to get home from her "evening constitutional with Daddy" so I can bathe her and put her to bed.

  • Right now: Relaxing, DH is reading and C is down for the night

    Today: Started cleaning house, and built and primed a "learning tower" for C, went out to dinner at a tacqeria and then frozen yogurt

    Tonight: C just started crying...so off to calm her down. Guess she wasn't really down for the night :(

  • This Morning: dog and I went running in really windy weather for 6 miles..brutal because of the wind. I also painted part of our bedroom, went to Lowe's for a few things.

    This afternoon: went to birthday party for a friend's son, at Chuck E. Cheese. I even had a beer there, which tasted really good.

    This evening: after H got home, we drove to his parents house to have pizza and say bye to the nephews; nephews are going back home tomorrow :( And currently my benadryl is kicking in so I'm calling it a night.

  • Today J and I went to Old Navy and Aaron Brothers for Mother's Day gifts. We are now watching Chopped that we recorded from Wednesday.
  • Oh man, what a day! We spent most of it installing blow-in insulation into our attic. We saved $1,000 by renting the machine from Home Depot and doing it ourselves. Me downstairs breaking open bags of insulation and shoving them into the machine and poor dh belly crawling around in our tiny attic with the hose. What a mess! Dust everywhere! We had to wear goggles/glasses, respirators, he had knee pads and a head lamp, etc. But we did it and I'm so proud of him for doing that nasty job with so little bitching. (And now we know why half the house was so cold this winter -- bare spots with zero insulation over certain rooms.)
