Ten Things Tuesday

Re: Ten Things Tuesday

  • 1. it's my second day back to work and I've done maybe 1.5 hrs of actual work

    2. I have spent more time pumping than working this day and half I've been back

    3. I need to stop going on the national bump boards, those women annoy me

    4.  DD rolled over on Sunday, she was on a big blanket that was folded so the couple inches it was off the ground gave her the extra momentum she needed to get to her stomach

    5.  I need a 2011 calendar for my office

    6. I've talked to my neighbors more in the past week than I probably have in the 4 yrs we've lived there.

    7.  DH told me my ILs were thinking of coming to visit Memorial Day weekend, which is also my bday. I understand it's easier for them to visit on a long holiday weekend but I don't want to spend my bday with them.

    8. I love having a window office

    9. I had coneys for lunch and they were delicious

    10. I wish my coneys were from Lafayette, not Kerbys

    3. When I rushed to get up for the sick dog I got a major a$$ cramp in my calf, I was paralyzed

    I remember those while pregnant. They hurt so bad!

    Eta: If you pull on your toes, it helps them go away faster.

    OMG!  I had a few where I screamed swear words when they happened because they hurt so bad.  My muscles were actually sore for days afterward.  Jackie is right - point your toes upward and it will help stop them.

    3. I am trying to figure out what will be a better mood lifter.  Sitting on the couch pigging out on Milano cookies or doing damage to the bank account at Target.

    omg, are you my long-lost twin??  :o)

  • 1. I hate that I have to pee every 5 minutes it seems like

    2. We have too many projects around the house to do before the baby comes

    3. I am not obbessed with the landscape and DH will kill me when I tell him my ideas. 

    4. I hate the fact that we need to find yet another renter for our old house.  DH did a final walkthru with the old renter last night

    5. I really don't want to post the house on CL, but I will do it tonight. I pray we don't get a bunch of crazies.

    6. I still miss our old neighbors, I really only knew them for 3 months, but they were awesome neighbors we had alot in common with (they moved out back in Sept).

    7. We had a bird fly into our house this weekend and DH's friend had to catch and carry it out

    8. DH & I can't decide on a boy name, I'm convinced we're having a boy

    9. I really can't wait for the weather to warm up

    10. I went to bed @ 8:30 last night and I'm still tired, probably because I was up between 3:45-5.

    10. DH hit me with a bomb a few weeks ago: He wants to seriously start talking about kids (i.e. let's make the go/no go decision soon). eep.  

     

    We just had the discussion about having the same talk. We need to make up our minds before I get any older. Blah.  GL!

  • 1. I want a custard filled donut bad!

    2. I finally decided to get one the next time I went out. I forgot until I got back to work. Grr!

    3. I am mad at a co-worker right now. He was a jerk.

    4. My boss stole another co-workers nutrigrain bar. She left it on her desk so she could have it for breakfast this morning. Got to work and it was gone. When she yelled at him for it, he told her she should have been more prepared. What?

    5. I am excited to take my sister to NYC next week, but I am going to miss DH.

    6. My cat is a fatty and is on a diet. He went from 17.2 lbs to 16.8.  Two pounds to go.

    7. I tried dry shampoo today and while it was okay, I am not liking the way my hair feels right now.

    8.  I don't want to go to my high school reunion but my friend is putting on the pressure.

    9. All this Cinco de Mayo talk is making me want nachos now.

    10. I do not like regular jelly beans either. DH doesn't like the Starburst or Jolly Rancher kind. We are at a jelly bean stand off.

    I got it from Sally Beauty before Treseme and Suave had one out. I just now decided to try it.  I think it is called Batiste.  The woman that worked there recommended it. Thankfully it is just a trial size.

    Should I try another brand?

  • 1. I'm attempting to wash my hair less & I skipped washing today. It looks cute, but I feel dirty.

    2. I've been listening to the new Adele cd for a couple weeks straight. It's good. 

    3. DH has been on day shift the last two weeks and it's taking a lot of adjusting on my part. I'm used to a lot of alone time.

    4. I haven't been able to drink for a few months and I miss it. I didn't think I'd care.

    5. Since stopping bcp, my face is hit up. I'm pretty self conscious about it.

    6. The new girl at work is annoyingly nice. It makes me feel like a *** for saying that.

    7. The mini bag of Cadbury eggs in my purse is calling my name.

    8. I did Jillian the last two nights and I'm sore. I like it.

    9. I am gathering quotes for a spring yard clean-up. I hate doing it b/c it makes me sneeze.

    10. I need to remember to vote tonight.

    The girls on here turned me on to Pssst from CVS - so far it works great!

  • 1. DH and I finally have a name we both like and would totally use but I'm not 100% comfortable with it because one of our really good friends sister has a child of that name. She lives in another state and we are not friends with her, I just can't get it out of my head.

    2. I ate the pick two at qdoba for lunch, nachos and a naked burrito. I feel disgusting now but it was so good.

    3. I have a cupcake from Just Baked sitting on my desk waiting for me.

    4. I have been pretty snippy to DH lately and I feel bad.

    5. I am going to trade in my CC points for a bunch of HD gift cards and get a new patio set.

    6. I am stressing myself out with getting house projects done before we have a bunch of baby vistors this summer.

    7. I really probably shouldn't care so much about #6.

    8. #6 is probably most of the reason for #4.

    9. I'm pretty sure I got a raise at work and no one has told me. My last two direct deposits are on par w/ a 4% increase and I can't think of any other reason they would be higher than normal. Reviews were supposed to take place in April and I never had one w/ my boss. None of this surprises me.

    10. While the increase is nice after being on wage freeze for like 6 years it's still nowhere near where I should be.

  • 1.  I'm so crampy right now because I got my IUD put in. 

    2.  At least I can't get pregnant now so the cramping is well worth it :)

    3.  I was in the ER for 12.5 hours this past weekend and I basically discharged myself because they couldn't find anything.  I saw a Gastro on Monday and get to get an Endoscopy tomorrow and a CT Scan Thursday on my abdomen and lower intestine.

    4.  Summer has found her thumb and has begun sucking on it.  DH isn't happy but I think it's cute.  Although I know it's much harder to break a kid of their thumb than a paci.

    5.  I made pot roast yesterday, with a chuck roast, cooked it for 7.5 hours and it was still tough.  

    6.  I found out over the weekend I get to take my first nursing class next Winter instead of having to wait until Spring.  YAY!!!! I need a break and something to challenge me.

    7.  Gas is getting so expensive that I don't want to drive anywhere.

    8.  I sort of enjoyed hearing the crazy ER patients go on rants.  My favorites were one guy saying "I promise i'll be good!", and a lady saying "Ooh, did you see him girl? He's going home with me!"

    9.  DH is off all week, thankfully, since I have so many appointments scheduled.

    10. Summer is crying so need to go!

  • imageballerina06:

    7. When Gabe wakes up in the middle of the night for his paci or lovie I sometimes pretend to still be sleeping so DH will get up instead of me

    I think we all do this Wink

  • imageTarah716:

    3.  I need my hair cut and color on Thursday so I feel pretty again.  Right now I feel not so pretty with my extra weight and stretch marks all over my tummy.

    This totally helped me feel pretty again!

    1. Lately I have been in love with Sutter Home Moscato wine.

    Me too!  MIL introduced it to me a few weeks ago.  I can only do one glass at a time because it's so sweet but it's good!

    Moscato is my fav!

    8. I did Jillian the last two nights and I'm sore. I like it.

    Im sure it looks great! And I might have to steal it again Big Smile

  • 1. I took a nap this afternoon and it was awesome.

    2. I keep meaning to go vote today but can't seem to get motivated enough to do it yet. 

    3. I ate a piece of leftover baby shower cake with lunch- delicious. 

    4. I watched the first two episodes of the second season of Treme today.  That show is great. 

    5. I'm looking forward to Cinco de Mayo, I love mexican food.

    6. I am hoping we can get lots of work done on the house this weekend.  We need to put the trim up now that the floors are done.  Not being able to put the crib up is slowly driving me crazy. 

    7. I have been really wanting to go to the movies but I can't get excited about seeing anything that is out right now. 

    8. I am looking forward to wearing the new dress I bought to my cousin's wedding. 

    9.  I'm ready for spring to arrive.... seriously.

    10.  It's funny to me when people say I'm "not as big as I should be".  Really, are all pregnant ladies supposed to be the same size?

    You know what helped me decide? Teenagers. Plus, I'm pretty sure we'd have the spawn of the devil, so that helps too.

    I would be happy to support your indecisiveness & drinking.
