we made it!
friday!
not that this week felt that long to me, but yesterday sure did! could have something to do with the fact i was running on 2 hours of sleep...
forced myself to run last night. took all of my strength and energy to even get dressed for a run. but i managed 7 miles, right on target! went home, made a quick salmon dinner, it was to die for. was hoping to be asleep by 9, but couldn't fall asleep until almost 11:30. pooped again today.
tonight i go pick up my race bib for tomorrow's cancer asss-kicking race. about 15,000 people participate. when i go get my bib they also give us a free pasta dinner tonight. tomorrow my meet time is 7 am. race and then free massages and a bbq. then cleaning the house and relaxing in the sun 
sunday is tubing again 
Re: we made it!
Shauni, I commend you for running yesterday after the day you had, lack of sleep, etc. I feel like a buttbag, I was supposed to get up and walk this morning but I didn't. You are an inspiration! What is the name of your race again?
you are my favorite person in all of the world. please write a book. thank you.

hey all!!
So glad it's friday!!! i leave at 12:30 today for doctor's appointment and some testing. Was supposed to have an ultrasound, but they claled yesterday and said that since I just had one about 5 weeks ago, we're not having another.
So we'll at least get to hear the heartbeat at least.
I'm sneaking in Big Brother online right now before I officially start work. I didn't know it started last night!!!!!!! I LOVE that show!
Hope everyone has a great day and a great weekend!!! (Just in case I don't get to get on here and post a lot today!).
Shauni- good luck at your race!!!!!!!
It's a rainy rainy day here.
Last night I watch Teen Mom from tuesday. Oh, how i wish I was about 10 years younger so I could be on that show and pretend I'm poor but really be banking in all the money MTV is paying me.
My morning coffee is now giving me wicked heart burn. So I either deal with more heart burn or no morning coffee. I might pick heart burn.
No plans this weekend, expect I'm sure a trip to the laundry mat which is always an exciting time:)
Thank God it's Friday. If I can just make it through today it'll be a miracle!
I'm frustrated with my boss. She gives me details on what she wants, then I put stuff together exactly like she asked, then she looks at me like I'm special and rips into me for not doing what she asked, then completely changes what she's asking for. I'm over it.
I'm about to punch my co-worker's head off this morning. She sits in my office area and told on me a couple of weeks ago for cursing too much in the office. Which of course just makes me want to do it more. This morning she's in here conducting a meeting at her desk at the top of her effing lungs. Seriously, get a conference room.
I got an allergy test yesterday - found out I'm allergic to the trees that are naturally ALL around my stupid house. My eyeballs are swollen out of their sockets this morning. I can't get allergy meds until next week when I go back for part 2 of my allergy test.
I'm grumpy. Lord, get me through this day without quitting my job or punching a b!tch.
Rachel - the one partner here is exactly like your boss. The rest of us save what he marks up/his emails with instructions and if he gets huffy we show it to them. Perhaps you can say "Since it sounds like you want something different, maybe you could communicate with me in writing so I can refer back to it." P.S. Go scratch you bi-polar beeotch. Hearts.
My weekend plans: tonight I need to look for a new bathroom mirror, maybe get a pedi, make potato salad and corn dip. And maybe lemon blueberry bread.
Saturday get up, pack bag, head to MFD's cousin's house for wine, swimming and general tomfoolery. Sleep over.
Sunday back home, haus and kitchen frau and relax.
Today is some more laundry (hanging up on my clothesline), vaccuming the entire house, and dishes. Work 5-9ish. I am so ready for my Sunday, no work after a crazy schedule this week. Also working on etching a platter for H's boss' wife and possibly some scrapbooking. I really need to get caught up, I hate being so behind. I am also trying to stay focused and not easily distracted by facebook and such.. not doing well with that so far this morning.
Shauni, you are a beast on that running chica! You are amazing! Good luck on your race.
Xtine- yuck on the heartburn, but if the coffee is important do whatcha gotta do.
sunshine, sorry your boss changes crap on you, that sucks.
Steph, so sorry about your mirror, hopefully you can find another one without paying through the nose for itm
Steph I look forward to your posts every day :-)
Shauni you kick major arse by running after a days work on 2 hrs of sleep. Once again...Super woman.
Hi everybody!
I am eating a Jimmy Deans breakfast bowl. I am consuming about half of my calories for the day in this one tiny portion but it tastes so danm good I don't care. Today is Friday thank you sweet butterfly poops and we are headed out to my moms after work to bbq with my brother and soon to be SIL. Im oober excited and so is E since she hasn't seen grandma or papa in like a week.
Today is payday.
Tbears I wish I had berry picking on my property. I have ivy and skunks. Ah, urban life.
Jessie, dying laughing at sweet butterfly poops. hahahahaha
TGIF! For being a short week the week sure did drag. Last night I didn't work out as planned. I had to take my cousin to San Jose to take his PS3 in to get fixed. Normally I would have said no, but I owe my aunt (his mom) big time so I had no choice. We then went looking for a grill for my dads B-day. After going to several stores we ended up getting him a Uniflame propane grill. It's red and black and pretty nice. He was very surprised to see that we got him a new grill but he deserves it.
Tonight I will def hit the gym! Tomorrow we have to take the Honda to get an oil change, go to two little league games, run errands and we're going camping. Sunday we're having a BBQ for dads B-day and I have a mandatory volunteer meeting in Santa Cruz. It's going to be a busy weekend!
Moleson-
sorry about no ultrasound. As in impatient person it would drive me bonkers having to wait.
Sunshine- Ugh...sorry to hear about your co-worker from hell.
