dragging a$$ tuesday

why am i so tired?  i got a solid 7.5 hours of sleep.  and while i would prefer 8-9, 7.5 is the usual, and yet i slept through 2 snooze alarms this morning!  and i want to sleep under my desk george castanza style.

had a craptastic run yesterday, and my legs feel sore today.  going to take it easy with a 2 mile run today and then lift.  wednesday and thursday i hope to get in some good longer runs, and then a good 8 mile run on sunday.  but it has been so hot, so i am doing most of my running inside this week :/

is it friday night so i can be in bed yet??  and sleeping in until 10 on saturday??  PLEASE?

    Dragging a$$ is right! I'm up early because H had to leave at 5:45, and the pooch always insists on getting up when he leaves. Sigh. Have a belly check this morning with the doctor, so hoping everything looks good with Predator.

  • I am hoping this day goes by super fast today! Tomorrow is our big anatomy scan!!

    Last night we went grocery shopping, came home made yummy fajitas. After dinner we went to Target to get all our stuff we have run out of. I hate how your shampoo, soap, razors, ect always run out at the same time. I was kinda wishing we could put it off till after we knew the sex but it is probably a very good thing we went before because I probably would have went crazy and spent a boat load of money.

    Tonight is a fun filled night of trashy reality shows, ie Teen Mom, Duggars, Little Couple. It's a good thing Greg works Tuesday nights.

  • I'm draggin' too.  I got 9 hours of sleep last night, which is totally out of the norm for me, and I can't seem to wake up.

    We had an awesome weekend in WV.  Weather was perfect, music was awesome, lots of beer and deer burgers were consumed.  We got home late on Sunday night and now our house is a wreck.  We have camping gear from one end of the house to the other, dirty dishes, clothes, blankets, etc. everywhere.  I should have cleaned up last night, but our AC is out and it was hot as balls in the house, so instead I laid around on the couch watching It's Always Sunny.  I suppose that means I'll have to clean tonight.

    On another note - it's supposed to be 110 here tomorrow with the heat index and our AC is broken.  Where the crap do you buy a new central AC?  Can you just get one at Lowe's or somewhere like that?

  • Tuesday is an ahole. No outside exercise should be happening. 
     
    Mush, good luck with Pred's appt. 
     
    Is it Wednesday at 5 yet? I want to go to the beach. Although I do not feel like spending any time with my husband, we are not on the same page at all these days. Maybe it will help us get back on it. I don't know.
     
    I am over this oppressive and flipping AWFUL heat. Oppressive is a word I want to use to describe hostile regimes, not the weather. Enough.
     
    Last night I put laundry away, did a load of towels, cleaned the bathroom, did some packing for the weekend, dusted the basement, packed lunch and gym bag, made iced tea, and watched a bunch of shows.
     
    I want to walk to DD and get an iced coffee, but I don't want to sweat like a muthaFin' monster.
     
    Disney cruise excursions are book and my passport is being mailed off today to update it with my current name.

  • Eee, Rachel, I'd call an AC guy.

  • I have no idea. I'm secertly hoping for a boy but I had girl dreams but not in a while. I'm just excited for Greg to go he hasn't been able to go yet. However, he doesn't do well at doctors and I'm hoping he does ok.

  • Back from a long weekend camping.  Had a great time, ate too much, played lots of cards...and now the countdown to my return to work (2 weeks...Sad) begins.  This time off has been such a blessing but it's going to be H-A-R-D to leave BabyQ at daycare.  Plus K and I are still in negotiations about drop off/pick up duties, which is slightly stressful.

    Now, much laundry to do, plus finishing up unpacking from the weekend.  And it is hot as balls everywhere in the house that doesn't have AC.  Blech.

    Hoping MIL can watch BabyQ for a couple hours on Thursday so I can get a haircut/color.  Too much straggly gray hair.  Blech, again.

    oh HELLS no.  unacceptable.

    you need to call a repairman pronto. 

  • Hey guys, good morning.  Sorry you guys haven't been getting enough sleep.  I'm starting to feel a little guilty about how much sleep I've been getting.  I haven't worked in forever.  I've just been lounging around the house.  I think maybe today is the day to get back on track.

    MushE and Xtine, good luck with both appointments.

    Shauni...can I live my workouts vicariously through you?

    no AC? woman, are you nuts?

  • Yay for babies!! Downer note: a girl in my office is due in 5 weeks. Her baby is 3 almost 4 weeks behind on growth because she doesn't eat because she doesn't want to gain weight and be fat. I want to donkey punch her in the jugular.

    Im still having a major rough time with E not being home. She sounds like she's having fun which is great but Im not. Seriously trying to keep myself out of the house as much as possible.

    Friday night is girls night!

    Im really tired but for some reason Im chipper. Weird...

    Harley ride with Tommy Lee has been confirmed! Yummo!

    This type of shiit pisses me off so much.  There's a guy I work with whose wife is anorexic.  She had to have fertility treatments to even get pregnant b/c she hadn't had a period in so long.  She ended up pregnant with triplets and starved and killed one of them in the womb.  The twins were in NICU for weeks after they were born b/c they were so small and unhealthy.  To me, that should be considered child abuse.

    You're right.  I probably should just call a repair man.  I've been wondering if that's the best use of money, though, since it's the original air conditioner from when the house was built - 27 years old.  I know we'll have to replace it eventually, but maybe now isn't the time to deal with that.........

    Jessie, that's terrible! I got paranoid because the anatomy scan lady measured me at a week behind, but when questioned about it, she said Predator was moving a ton, so it probably wasn't accurate. Whew!

  • Craptastic Tuesday it is Stick out tongue Was slightly sore still from painting and trail running so I opted to take the dog on an easy walk yesterday. Today, husband, dog & I will get in a run after our RE appointment and then have a late dinner.

    Other than that, I gots nuffin. 

     

    Me (33)& DX: DOR, FSH-20.3; DH(28):SA=normal 8/11 HSG= clear!

    Exactly when I had E she was measuring almost a week behind on the first scan and during my anatomy scan she was 5 days ahead. Things can vary week to week with them and they hit growth spurts differently just like they would as babies and toddlers, but she looks 25 weeks pregnant at 35 weeks. It's horrible and I wish somebody would smack her! She only got pregnant because he 17 yr old sister did and she didn't want to lose all the spotlight.

  • I am dragging today too. I was up last night until after 2 am and then somehow managed to fall asleep and didn't wake up until 10:30. I feel like I wasted half of my day already by sleeping.

    DH and I are going to the beach today although I have been awake a whopping 20 minutes and he has already pushed all my buttons....grr.

    Made it to work after my appointment, and all is well with Predator.  He even kicked the doppler, which was cute.  NP says I'm measuring just right in terms of belly.  She told me he measured at 50th percentile for size at the anatomy scan, but he is my kid, after all!  They didn't do scans when my mom was pg with me, but after I was born I sure was at the bottom of those charts, if I was even on them. 

    One more 4-week checkup, then get my glucose test (they do 2-hr for everyone), then start going more frequently. 

    Wowza, this is really happening!

    Stoked for you guys!  Hopefully he'll be fine.  I know at mine, it didn't seem like a doctor's office at all, but it was a specialty scan place, as my doctor doesn't do them.
