again, it is only wednesday?!
i didn't get to go on my run last night and i didn't get as much sleep as i would have liked. grumpy, tired shauni.
hopefully i will get in 4 miles plus some weights tonight. then quesadillas (SO EXCITED, what is wrong with me!?) and then hopefully early to bed (asleep by 10 would be GLORIOUS, no???)
super busy at work today, lots of meetings and lots to get done before said meetings.
and all i want is a plate of cheese with good crusty bread thanks to yuki.
hope you all have a nice day!
Re: again, it is only wednesday?!
Yesterday was sort of an ashhole, so after work I went to the library to pick up some books, then I went and got a mani pedi. I got home, ate naughty foods, watched two episodes of Rizzoli and Isles, and was snoozing by 10:30.
I am dragging this week and in a funk. Can't wait until tomorrow at 5 so I can get out of here, then get in my car and head north for a weekend of nothing up at my aunt's.
Last night I went home made tacos, watched some tv, started watching Teen Mom then Greg came home and changed the channel. He HATES those show and last week lectured me about how I am encouraging the whole teen pregnancy thing by watching them. I laughed in his face the entire time.
Favorite quote from last nights episode.. Butch "you can't go to rehab for anyone else but yourself. Not your truck......" Really Butch you go to rehab for your truck.
Butch has the most outrageous mullet I have ever seen. It is truly a sight to behold.
Oh, I don't know...if the truck was tricked out enough I might go to rehab for it...
Bought pounds and pounds of fixins at the grocery store yesterday...so far I've already tackled the Breakfast Apricot Crisp (awesome). Today is Mushroom Marsala Pasta with Artichokes and Plum-apple pie. Cannot wait for the Southwestern Brisket later this week...I sound like Betty f'n Crocker.
K invited his sister along to the balloon fest this weekend. She has to wait til Thursday (payday) to let us know if she and her family can (afford to) come. Totally reasonable. We plan on going on Saturday to see BNL. MIL has to work til 6ish and may not be able to come (really???? never even crossed my mind...) so SIL & her family may just wait for MIL and meet us there late since MIL will usually pay for one of the kids. Why have kids if you can't afford them? Because MIL is an enabler, that's why. F.M.L.
7 days...
Fur real. And dammit I keep forgetting to watch this. Thank God MTV runs repeats 10 days a week.
Good morning. I'm sleepy this morning, too. I slept like asss last night. We had a fairly quiet night. I went and got my rings cleaned and got a new nose ring on a whim after work. I'm loving the new one, it's aquamarine and a little flashier than the old one. :-) We had Chic-fil-a for dinner, but I was good and had grilled chicken and a salad. Spent the rest of the night with my tubby butt parked in front of the TV. Skippity doo.
BTW, Shauni, the All Good post totally reminded me that I forgot to tell you I SAW YONDER MOUNTAIN last weekend!! It was an awesome, sunset show. I
them so much.
I only ever want chic-fil-a on Sunday's. I always forget about it till SUnday and then I can't have it
Butches mullet is a good one. It's also very creepy how Tyler calls April mom. I know she is his stepmom but dude, thats your girlfriends mom.
Tuesday is over and Im in the clear :-) I hate Tuesdays with a freaking passion.
Last night we had old man softball and then home and in bed by 10:20. Asleep by like 11:30 which is great for me!
Today I have dr appt on lunch and tonight Im taking a good friends 11 month old german shepherd/rott for a run since she's driving him nutso with all her energy and I need to get out anyways!
I do not watch Teen Mom, so I have all kinds of raised eyebrows at this. What is this crazy dynamic? Some girl had a baby with her stepbrother??

Yes, I am not sure who was dating first, the teenagers or the parents but now they are step siblings. They are VERY white trash. Also, the teenagers are engaged to be married so they could be married step siblings at one point.
Dats~ Hows the baby process coming along?
Teen mom is great I love it but am still totally weirded out that Catelyn and Tyler are dating and so are their parents...awkward..but whatever I guess.
I can't wait till that kid has to draw a family tree in kindergarten...

I finally slept good last night, but had to get up earlier than normal this morning to do laundry before I go to work.
On FB this morning one of my friends (if you could call her that) was angered over an article on the no kids allowed movement. I am really trying not to comment on it seeing as she has two under two. I think kids are great, but working in a restaurant through high school, college, and now I see how the majority of kids behave and how little some parents care about it. I think it is great that some companies are saying no kids in first class or no kids at certain movie showings. Maybe it is because we don't have kids, but when we go out for a nice dinner the last thing I want is for some kid to be throwing a temper tantrum the whole time.
Working today, going to a pot luck tonight, packing, then hopefully busting out of this town tomorrow morning for a week and a half long vacation!
Hi all. I am kinda in a funk as well. Since I'm not working, I am sticking around the house so much that I have a bit of cabin fever. No reason to go to town, if I leave the house, I am spending money I don't have to spend. I don't feel like cleaning the house much b/c I am the only one hanging around... H has been working and afterwards staying in town to help a friend work on a car, so he hasn't been getting home til after 8ish too, so I am feeling lonely. BAH.
Went to the girly doc for my yearly stuff yesterday and she gave me a prescription for a prenatal. I don't know how I feel about that, simply b/c I am ready to start TTC, but I know H isn't quite there yet. I need to get a full time job first. No call yesterday from the place I followed up on Monday. Hoping that he just didn't get to it, and maybe I'll get one today.
Sorry for the vent, I just needed to get some of that crap off my mind.
In Jersey? Cause I've totally got tickets to BNL that night! We're going to have to meet up, you know. DH refuses to come. I dragged him one year and he was completely bored, so now I just go with my mom and sisters.
I'm spending today decorating sugar cookies. And then I think a trip to the mall for LUSH and new sneakers. We'll see how long the cookies take - and I just realized it's only 11am.
I have been craving a good chicken and avocado quesadilla with homemade salsa...yum!

They were actually very smart and realized they had awful lives growing up. Their parents are awful so they put their child up for adoption. Which for them was the BEST thing for them and their baby.
Im sorry Dats!!! Do the drs have any idea wtf is going on? Or are they still being dbags about the whole thing (they were at some point right?).
Excited~As a mom I agree that there are some places that children should not be. If we go out to a restuarant as a family we pick places that are family friendly. If it's just us then we go to the nicer places and when we go out alone I do enjoy not having a screaming kid in the background because that is probably the reason why we are out alone is to get a break from our own screaming kids.
After my chiro appointment, got home and DH, the dog and I ran an easy 3 miles and also let Allie the dog jump in the creek to cool off. Also we watched Teen Mom 3 and thanks to satellite, we watched the show at 7-8pm rather than 10-11pm which made me happy since I was in bed around 10, booyah.
Today - working from home and plan to take dog on easy run or walk, depends how hot it gets.
tbears - even if you're going to be in the beginning phases of TTC, prenatals aren't bad, I'm not preggers yet but when I met with an RE in May, she encouraged taking them so I've been taking them since and got mine at Target. They have made my nails lot stronger and I get most of the vitamins I need (except calcium) for the day.

Hello, ladies.
I'm busy at work, but going to rush home tonight to spend time with H, because he leaves tomorrow after work (I'll drop him at the train he can catch to the airport) for Hong Kong and Bejing for 10 days. Boo! I'm so excited for him to get to go, but I will really miss him.
We finally got our registries started last weekend, and H's parents already bought our stroller and car seat, which is super super nice.
That's the one! We're just going to take advantage of the lawn seating. We went last year and caught Rick Springfield unplugged (severe T-storms). It's so neat watching the balloons inflate & take off. I'll PM you my cell ... DH will be shocked that some of the people from the 'wedding board' are actually real!
I totally want quesadillas now because of your post and it's 8:30 here...mmmm...cheesy
Last night, I was able to catch up and finally post our HM pictures on FB since I had the lovely job of playing nurse to Sam who was in major meltdown mode after getting the carcinoma by his eye cut out. Now he looks like he got in a fight. I also had Loco Moco for dinner which is probably the most unhealthy deliciousness in the world.
Dats- Sorry to hear about all the frustration. I'll cross my fingers that your lady parts straighten themselves out and get to work.
Dats, I'm so sorry to hear that things are going well with the lady parts. I hope your doctors are able to figure out what's going on, and soon!
I know how hard this stuff can be. We spent the weekend with couple friends who started trying a little after we did, and the H is getting frustrated it's taking so long (WTMF, she went off BCP only 6 months ago!) and stressing her out.
I'm almost positive that the kids were dating first.
I would like to punch Wednesday in the face. I'm in a mood today and things aren't getting any better.
Had a tragedy at work. (30 something year old electrician died on the job last night.) My boss is on vacation until 8/2, so we've been talking on the phone and there's lots of meetings regarding this issue (safety, legal, counseling, etc.)
And I'm also having the never ending issues with deadbeat, waste of air SIL. I would like to punch her in the face too.
Haven't been feeling the best. Don't really have an appetite which makes it hard b/c I get nauseous if I don't eat.
Ok, that's my pity party.
Hope everyone has a great day!!!!!
This made me imagine you beating down a 9-year-old Christina Ricci...

I think so too. I'm very impressed with the way they stood up to their families in putting the child up for adoption. Only Tyler's mom was supportive. His dad was like, all you need is love. Tyler was like, no dad, you also need money for diapers!
