Good Morning!

I am not sure where Raynes is this morning, so I will start.

How was everyone's evening lastnight, and what is in the works for today?

We finally have our home computer up and running so I ordered invitations for the boys.  I just did some easy ones through Wal Mart since I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg. I get to pick them up after work, and hopefully get them mailed in the next couple of days.

Today is work, work, work, and more work! Nothing to exciting.

Re: Good Morning!

  • I got home yesterday at 6:30 and promptly feel asleep on the sofa.  I woke up at 8:30, so dinner was pretty random last night.

    I am super cranky today, which does not bode well for the day.  I think I'll stay in my office with my door closed all day.

  • Hello.  Spent some time last night looking at plans with my parents when they come visit in August - I'm getting excited about it, but also worried about finding things that will keep dad busy/happy.

    Normal day at work today, and looking forward to dinner with some girlfriends later this evening.  Dinner is a bit late, so may try to get some shopping done beforehand - it's been a while since I've had some retail therapy :-)

    Morning.  I'm balls arse busy at work, and we're trying to figure out some computer stuff, so blah.  Our support people suck, so we're often left blindly stabbing in the dark.  Of course it happens when we have several high priority jobs to run.  Oh the joys of Computer Aided Engineering.

    Tonight Derek is most likely heading out to Tim's house to help him dig out for their new concrete patio and walkway, so it will just be Erin and I, which means something easy for dinner and probably a workout and walk for me, before I curl up with my book.

  • Reba - when are you testing? 

    Good morning! Last night was pretty mellow, I went for a walk, made dinner, and talked to my sister on the phone for over an hour.

    This afternoon I need to run to Kohl's or Old Navy to see if I can find a new pair of shorts (none of mine fit me right now) and a purple tank top to wear tomorrow. My boss is closing the office in the afternoon and taking all employees and spouses to the Rockies game, I can't wait for a beer and some sunshine!

  • Good morning. I mentioned it in the work thread, but today's the big ceremony day for the award we're getting. I'd enjoy it much more if I had the other job stuff resolved. I'm just not into it. The rest of today will be spent putting together an 800-page book, three times over, b/c one person is afraid of PDFs. Way to be green, feds.

    Last night was a gym night, a quick tostada dinner, then off to bed early to get some rest. Tonight will probably be another quiet night at home.

  • Morning all.  Not too much is going on here.  Just the usual at work.  Today needs to be a focus day, so I can get home and try to finish my book:  The Book Thief.  It took me a little while to get into it, but now that I have, I can't wait to finish it.

  • Last night I attended an MBA infosession as an alumni representative. I had completely forgotten that I had signed up for this. So by the time I got home from that, my evening was shot. I had leftovers and took it easy. Tonight I don't have any major plans. I'm hoping to get in a good workout and maybe clean a bathroom or two.
  • Bad morning. :( Today my Dh woke up to a boot on his car. So he took mine. Leaving me to locate the cash and the calls to get it off. I am irked because I pay a monthly fee to park here with a hang tag. Ever since a restaurant opened though things have been more difficult.

    Hopefully things will get better from here.

    Last night I went out to a cool restaurant with Dh that we have been wanting to try. It was delicious.

  • Good morning!

    Yesterday Preston got a clean report from the doctor so he is back at daycare today. We went and did a little shopping and got DH's fathers day present and FIL's gift. We went to eat at outback  last night it was yummy!

    I got to work at 6 again this morning and plan on staying until at least 4. I hope I am not super busy and can sneak away for 10-15 minutes and go see jordan at swimming lessons. DH is working nights tonight and tomorrow so tonight I plan to curl on the couch with jordan and spend some time with him. I didn't get to spend much time with him last week with everything going on with preston and he leaves for camp monday and won't be back until thursday night.

  • Good Morning,

    I'm  back from Zumba. Today I have a meeting and then if the homestudy packet arrives today we have that to fill out. I'm trying to decide what to make for dinner tonight because I sure haven't gone grocery shopping yet this week and there's not a whole lot in the house. Ideas?

  • Mo - you should make one of your yummy souffles and then send one to me!

    Morning! I'm happy that the painters are at the house as I type. I'm not so happy about living with next to nothing for a few days while they paint.  

    I've started looking for a new job and its strange, I think I'm ready for a change. I seem to be really attracted to non-profits this time around.

  • Good afternoon ladies! I'm on maternity leave now, so I'll be around more often for awhile. For the past few months I've been checking in from work on my ipod touch, but not posting much.

    I don't have anything going on this week besides laundry and cleaning - can't believe this baby is going to make his arrival in just three weeks or so!

  • Last night was good.  BIL and his friend are staying with us, so we BBQ'd when they got home last night.

    Today I was back at work, which was good.  Being with my kids makes everything better Smile.  I'd like to go for a run this afternoon, but I think I probably should take one more day off since I am a little crampy if I don't stick to advil...but tomorrow I am back on track!  Tonight we are going to trivia at the local pub with BIL and his friend, so that should be fun.  And, now that the 24 hours have passed, I can have a couple of beers, so I am looking forward to that as well!

  • Today I'm feeling really cranky. 

    Worked all day and tried to get a quick workout in before I leave for an education dinner and the workout wasn't what I was expecting so that was frustrating.  I very much dislike when I don't get a good workout in and them I'm going out to dinner where I have no control over what I eat.  Hopefully tomorrow I'm less cranky.
