Five Things Friday
1. I have about five loads of laundry that I need to do, and yet I can't seem to find the motivation to actually get started.
2. Lately, the slightest tasks have been making me exhausted and it's frustrating.
3. I don't remember always feeling this tired when I was pregnant, but then again I didn't have a 2.5 year old to take care of at the time.
4. I had a dream last night that the ultrasound tech. made a mistake and that the baby was a boy, and I was upset about it in the dream.
5. Potty training with Emma isn't going too well, which stresses me out slightly since I really wanted to have this task accomplished by the time the baby comes.

Re: Five Things Friday
1. This is the first 5 day week I've worked in a few weeks, I'm so glad it's Friday!
2. There are so many things I need to do at home, but when it's nice outside, I just want to be outside.
3. My ILs have never watched DD and they are going to the end of the month for a wedding, I'm sure it will be fine, but I'm nervous.
4. I need to finish my photo book from our cruise in April before my free credit expires next week.
5. I am going to Panera on lunch, yum!
1. I had a dream last night that my water broke and I went into labor super early. I was at the hospital and there was a long wait, but I didn't want to go to the ER and pay my $100 co-pay. I am feeling a little freaked out about the dream today.
2. I saw Harry Potter last night and it was amazing. But I wanted to punch about half the people in the theatre. I can't wait to go and see it again when people aren't cheering and clapping randomly throughout the movie.
3. I am going to Meijer at lunch because we are out of diet coke. I think DH has diet coke running through his veins. I don't drink it much so I didn't realize we were out. He waited til he had the last can to let me know. Thanks for the heads up.
4. I promised DH dinner tonight. I'm thinking Wendy's. I'm a terrible wife. This is payback for the diet coke incident.
5. DH had 2 friends over last night and they drank their dinner. They were very obnoxious and I'm glad they stayed outside the whole time they were over.
1. My work computer finally died on me this week. They got me a new computer on Wednesday and I'm just now pretty sure I have everything back on and working for the new one. I have wanted to cry for about two days now with frustration.
2. Jason and friends took a tree down in our yard yesterday that had fallen earlier but got stuck on two other trees. If it had continued to fall it would have taken out the power lines to our house. I had several heart attacks watching them take it down.
3. I'm leaving work early today for an eye appointment and keep forgetting - when I remember I look at the clock terrified I've already missed it. haha.
4. I'm going out to dinner tonight and I cannot wait to see my BFF.
5. I'm back in my pre pregnancy pants. I did a happy dance around the room when I zipped them up.
1. I just spend way too much money online at Kohl's
2. We need to start saving money again, but #1 is not helping that situation.
3. DH and I should probably make a will and set up some sort of college fund for DD and be responsible parents.
4. I am hungry
5. I need to figure out what I'm wearing to a wedding tomorrow and am afraid none of the dress/shoes I have at home are going to work.
1. I finished Shania Twain's autobiography, and found it very interesting that she seems to blame her husband's affair 100% on the other woman (who was also a close friend of hers). Never once in the book does she talk about blaming Mutt, but goes on and on about the other woman. Errr, I'm pretty sure it takes 2 to tango.
2. My painted cabinets are still tacky and I haven't touched them in several days. It is annoying the f*ck out of me.
3. DH was in a car accident on Wed, poor guy. He is fine, thank goodness (just some whiplash), but we think his car is totaled. I'm pretty sure DH actually hopes his car is totaled so he can get a new one.
4. I'm also really excited to see Harry Potter!! I'm very glad I made the decision NOT to re-read the books....it makes the experience more enjoyable when I'm not sitting there thinking about all the things that they left out or changed (because I've forgotten most of it).
5. Thank you to the ladies who recommended Anna's Alterations a while back. I am loving the fact that my pants fit again.....in fact, they fit better than ever before because they're actually shaped to me and my ghetto booty, lol.
)
1. I have a friend who's having some weird issues and may or may not have a viable pregnancy. It's breaking my heart that they can't figure out if its sticking or not.
2. I'm calling in a little bit to talk w/ her about it. It just sucks so bad.
3. My boss's boss is driving me crazy this week. We have a client/collaborator that is being a little unreasonable and boss's boss just wants to completely bend over backwards to accomodate them. This will result in my boss having approximately an hour Monday morning to make a major decision after having been out of state for over a week. (for something that could easily wait at least a few days).
4. I was so tired this morning that I almost fell back asleep about 10min before I had to leave the house.
5. I really wish this was another 3-day weekend. Even though we're not doing a lot I could use a little extra downtime.
Our furniture is still a little sticky, but a lot better than two days ago. I mentioned it to DH and he said we may end up putting something else on them - he went into detail but I cannot remember what he said. I'll ask him about it tonight and get back to you.
1. We have been so slammed at work... like record breaking numbers slammed. I am finally starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
2. And then it'll all start back over on Monday. Ugh!
3. I laughed at 1/2 of jhobels 5 things.
4. I have to buy a new diaper bag and cant decide on a Vera Bradley one. I want them all.
5. I got up at 6:30am this morning to book a spot with a certain photographer for Chloe's 1 year pictures. I was worried she was going to book up fast so I got up early, showered and turned the computer on to watch for the posting of available dates.
......and did you get a spot?
)
1. I had planned to wake up early and clean the house top to bottom but instead I decided to sleep in til 11.
2. Now I really have no energy to clean, so I'll probably just do the dishes today and maybe some laundry.
3. I had cake for breakfast.
4. DH is working a double shift today and won't get home til midnight, which means lunch/dinner will most likely consist of junk food.
5. I plan to stay in my pjs all day unless I decide to go out somewhere.
DX: MFI
Taking a break from being poked and prodded
You know it!
Too funny Jackie ~ I think I might possibly know that photographer sorta, lol. Glad to hear you got it!!
Holy crap... is this really Rachel? You absolutely know who it is
BTW, I got your FB message. I am just horrible at responding back. I'll get on that tonight.
Yes indeedy it is moi!
Oh dear, don't worry for a second about responding back, I just wanted to send you a message. Actually I was talking to your BFF A who works here about it one Friday.
Oh thats right. I went to lunch with her that day and she told me that she saw you and talked to you. You know... we should do lunch one day. We are not that far from each other.
1. I just polished off a box of Kraft mac & Cheese...it was very good but I know its bad for you
2. Took the day off today to do laundry, put it away and clean the kitchen.
3. Im nervous that my newest dog who hates other people and HATE kids will have issues when we have this baby, I love him to death and I hope we can make it work.
4. We have well water and the fuse keeps poping and we don't know why its happening, it started last Friday and now it happens multiple times a day leaving us with no water instantly and we have to keep going downstairs to flip the fuse back.
5. If #4 is what we think it is...its very expensive and have to hire someone to do it.
1. I just got Morgan's birthday party thank you card printed, her party was a month ago, I must get them in the mail tomorow.
2. Last night our kitchen was invested with flies.... it took me and h over a 1/2 hour to kill them all, and by all I mean 10 of them... so gross
3. I am walking in the michigan breast cancer 3 day and I have done NO training... should be interesting 3 days..
4.This is the 1st friday in a long time my boss is here and it SUCKS that I will have to stay til 5.
