Can I have some cheese with my whine?
It has been a rough few days. Early last week I started getting a little cough/throat tickle and a mild runny nose. I didn't think much of it until Friday when BLAM I got a full on cold. Perfect timing for the guests we had flying in from Ohio for the weekend. :-( I tried to be a wonderful chipper hostess but really I was feeling like butt. Uuuugh. They were very understanding but I still felt bad. And I really wanted to spend more time with them than I did!
Then.... yesterday our water heater went ka-BLOOM and was misting our laundry room for awhile before we noticed it.
And THEN.... this morning I have cramps to beat the band and still have a little annoying throat tickle.
Wah wah.
DEEP BREATH.
I know there are much worse things that could go on in a person's life but sometimes it just feels good to have a quick pity party.
Anyone else?
Re: Can I have some cheese with my whine?
I really hate the lack of confidence the people I support have in me. It does nothing to improve my job satisfaction or even self esteem when after I explain a process or something I hear "I'll check with [my Boss]." Oh, ok. So I guess after being in my role for 3yrs, I don't know what I'm doing?
Awesome.
Steroids are nothin' to mess around with yo! Hope you feel better soon!!!
Oddly if I'm feeling crampy doing an ab workout makes me feel better.
I'll ditto all of this.
And I'm annoyed with our house process. This entire time (we originally put an offer in back at the end of April), they've been telling us "oh, the 203k loan isn't that much of a hassle. You'll get your stuff done within a week of closing. Well, our closing was delayed from last Wed to last Friday, so we pushed off moving an extra week to be safe. Now, our carpet is on backorder for two weeks. I really don't want to move all of our shiit into the house, wait a week, and move it all around again so they can recarpet.
Yes, I know. We're home owners. awesome! (really, I am excited.) At this point though it's just so much random hassle. I just want to be moved in and enjoy living in our home.

Today is a much better day.
DH's friend is gone now. I love the kid but dude, you're almost 30, can you tell any other stories than going out and getting wasted? It's fun having house guests but it's also fun when they leave and you can turn on something other than ESPN on TV.....
And our water heater is fixed. For now. We'll have to just bite the bullet and replace it shortly.
I LOVE our new car. LOVE. A LOT.
My afternoon latte is delicious.
My cold is almost gone. It was a quick one but hit HARD.
