srsly? (wednesday post)

good (???) morning.

6:30 am allergy attack.  gas light came on during my morning commute.  i forgot my wedding rings at home.

today is going to be SWELL.

and

it has been perfect beach weather all week.  the weekends forecast?  68 and rainy.  f*ck my pale white body. 

Re: srsly? (wednesday post)

  • Are you heading to la playa this weekend?

    I have dry patches of skin on my face. WTF.

    I fear the heat today.

    My nose is running. I was trying to put the Relay For Life opening, closing and fight back ceremonies together on the train and it made me very emotional.

    Last night I collaborated with MFD on dinner (I did corn on the cob and salads, he grilled BBQ chicken boobs and vidalia onions), made salads for lunch, watered the flowers for an eternity, emptied the dishwasher, and cleaned the kitchen. I also watched an episode of Mob Wives. Obsessed.

    I am supposed to run errands after work today. We'll see how the heat affects me.

    We discussed 2012 vacations while eating. I think we're doing a trip to Cali to drive some of the PCH with a Seattle tack on, and a long weekend trip to Niagara Falls. Both are on my life to do list.

    Don't you feel naked with out them now?  When we first got engaged, it took me a long time to get used to wearing the engagement ring.  (Not a ring person normally).  Now if I forget them, I feel really really really weird!

  • happy weds. all!

    I'm in a much better mood last night.  J and I had it out last night regarding chores/etc., around the house.  but all is good now.

    Just got call from doctors office and they had to move my 1st appointment back a day.  Sad  I was hoping they would tell me they had to bump it up, but guess i'm not that lucky!

    I keep telling myself that I just have to get through today and tomorrow and then i'm off on Friday (last furlough day to use!!!!!!). I can do it!!

    It's looking fierce outside right now!  It's hot and humid, supposed to be 95 today.  But then the storms that are coming are supposed to cool things down and tomorrow is supposed to be 65.  Wisconsin never has consistent weather.

  • I hope J picks it up Mary. Sometimes I have to have a Come To Jesus Chore Talk with MFD. Rage.

    I forget my wedding rings at least once a week, and I don't wear them at all at home or on the weekends unless I'm going out.

    97 here today, 99 tomorrow. Blargh.

  • It's supposed to get up to like 96 today. Yesterday was awful. I took 3 showers!! One when I got up, one after going mini-golfing with DH, and one after shopping with SIL because I had to get ready for a meeting. We get SD tonight, so we'll probably be playing in her pool in the backyard after dinner. And I get to sit around at work all day because I have no clients.

    DH's great-aunt passed away yesterday, so we'll be going up north for a funeral sometime soon.

  • Tired. That is all.
  • Dats-sorry about your hubby's great aunt.

    I detest the heat.

    Fourth Anniversary
    Stayed home yesterday and went to the doctor, and I have a sinus infection. Feel like crapola still, but started my z-pack. I think I should beg out of the conference I'm supposed to present at on Friday, but I'm nervous to do that. But I'm exhausted and I'd have to leave tomorrow and stay in SF overnight, and I just don't feel up to any of it. :(

  • Hi ladies! It's been ummm forever?! I apologize in advance for my lack of paragraphs. I can't do them on this phone. I'm finally working in the nursing homes again for speech and I have two kiddos from the schools for extended school year. Jeremy is still not working and we're both getting tired of it. Fortunately, his application for the fire dept has been referred to the next level so I'm hoping and praying he'll get a call soon for an interview. If not, I have no idea what he'll do...probably school. The heat is killer here in GA with not a drop of rain on the radar for awhile. My garden needs some rain! Hope everyone else is well. I'll try to stay up to date better but early mornings and late evenings plus no computer make it difficult! Oh and lastly, we got Cooper's brother and named him Wilson and he's all puppy! Lol We love him and he's doing *pretty* good with all the training. The biting is the worst thing right now.

    yay!!!  So glad you guys were able to get his brother!!  So how is he healthwise??  I was telling J about what happened to you guys.  I kept looking at Timber, our dog, and I can't image what i would have done if that happened with him!!!

    Both of these are great trips!  I love that you will do the PCH, so cool.  Rent a convertible ;) 

    we are doing Alaska for 2012, if we an start saving $$ now!

    and yes, i feel so naked without my rings, but i always have my grandmothers diamond on my right hand, so i took it off and put it on my left to make me feel a little better :) 

  • Thanks! He's big and healthy with loads of energy. I'll post a pic later of him.

  • Shauni, I will probably send you a message on the facespace asking about your PCH experience. We are totally renting a convertible. Arrrrrrrrrriba!!!!!!

    Alaska is on my list too. I am excited to hear all about your plotting and planning over the next year!

  • I have the day off so I slept in late. I am treasuring these days I can do it because I know they will be ending soon. Greg doesn't have to go to work till the afternoon so we are getting ready to go to breakfast. I love breakfast and have been craving going out for it for a couple days now.

    Besides that it's trivia night.

    This is so me. I forget mine all the time. I forgot them wednesday when we went to a friends house and I said look it's almost like I have them on because I have a very prominent tan line. haha And I normally take them of when I get home or atleast my e-ring and leave my band on.

    Only two more days of work for me and then I am off to the beach. And I need it, the temp here has been like 100-102 every day. I'm dying, I asked my mom yesterday why did you have to raise us in Texas? She said I ask myself the same question.She bought some new curtains yesterday so I might have to help her hang and iron them today. I found some super cute curtains at Ikea I want so bad. And they only cost about 80 for the two packages I need, maybe I can talk H into buying them!

  • The last two days have been in the 90s and humid and today is not going to be any different. I really wanted to go to the beach, but yesterday I got absolutely nothing done because I felt like crap. So today it is all about chores, work and Relay meeting.

    DH and I are thinking about doing Niagara Falls on our road trip this summer. Any tips or advice from anyone who has been there?  

  • Another sunny day here, yay. Hoping the rain is finally gone until fall. Last night, I got home later than usual, luckily James was able to start the meatloaf and by the time I got home, we had to cook the sides and avoided an 8pm dinner. Tonight, after we both get home and eat, we have to go exchange our 42" LCD tv that his brother bought us. We have noticed a faint vertical yellow and red line - get to drive 25 minutes out of our town to go do this as their 30 day exchange period is almost up. I feel guilty for not taking the dog out yesterday for her to burn some energy and I'm hoping I can take her to an empty park tonight and let her run her little pit bull heart out chasing a frisbee or the sprinklers.

    Awesome trip!  H and I went a couple years ago - we did a road trip there then on to Chicago.  Two things you should definitely do while you're there:

    1.  Maid of the Mist

    2.  Butterfly Conservatory

    H and I LOVED them =)

  • I am SO already over this week and ready to head to France.

    I apologize...but here comes my rant: 

    DH and I are trying to handle his family crazy. MIL is in a dramatic mood. There is a financial issue between her and FIL (even though they have been separated for 15 years). She is constantly calling DH and the whole family to get everyone on "her side." FIL was in the wrong, but I really don't think this has anything to do with the kids and is really poisoning the family.

    I told DH that it may be best to take a step back, it's the last week of the school year and he's just trying to make sure his kids graduate tomorrow. She's been calling him on his cell during school hours. When he finally got fed up and said that this isn't the time to be calling she said that she's feeling "unbalanced" again and may have to go back to the "hospital" and she really needs her children to cut ties with their father. 

    We have plans to have dinner with FIL this Sunday and I have no plans to cancel. FIL didn't do myself or DH any harm. If anything MIL has caused more damage. Upon hearing that she said that it really hurts her that we're doing this and that it's just causing her more stress that she just can't handle and if she goes to the hospital it will be partly due to this.

    My cold cold heart just wants to say, "if a hospital is the best place for you to get better, go." But DH is far too kind to ever stand up to his mom.

     

    UUUUUGH.

    If you've made it this far. Thanks for reading my rant.
