cannot fathom that it is only thursday...
morning girls. busiest most hectic day yesterday! but i got so much done and it made the day go quickly. here is hoping it is somewhat like that today too.
i have had such a rough week. so tired all the time, and whiny, etc. but i did get in a great run last night which helped, at least for a little bit. was tired and cried in bed last night again for no reason. i think i am overwhelmed and well, just tired!
less than 2 weeks until vacation! i cannot wait, but i have so much to do!
Re: cannot fathom that it is only thursday...
Susie - Inner Harbor, as in, Baltimore?? Do you live near me? I feel awful if I didn't know that. If so, I can give you some ideas for both baby-friendly places and date-night places.
Today is pretty good. I'm sure that will change when my boss rolls in, he is like the black cloud on my day. However, I'm leaving early and Jeff and I are going to Ruth's Chris tonight for dinner so I am in a great mood regardless!
Hooray...one day closer to the weekend.
Yesterday was a long day. Headed to my volunteer meeting right after work. Meeting was over 1 hour early. I had taken my gym gear in case I wanted to work out. On my way home I (30 min drive) I contemplated if I should go work out or not. Seeing as I may have to wear a bathing suit for our trip next month I decided heck ya, I need to work out. So I drove to the gym (another 15 mins). I get to the gym and go to the bathroom to change (yes, I'm that self conscious). I look in my bag and...I forgot my freaking pants! Since I can't work out in jeans I had no choice but to go home. I was so pissed. The gym is a 15 min drive from my house so it's not like I could just go home and pick them up.
I plan on going to the gym today after work and I made sure to pack everything in my bag and check it twice.
This week has crept by...It needs to be Friday at 5 already! At least tomorrow is payday so that's a plus! Don's supposed to be getting a summer bonus tomorrow and he'll find out how much of a raise they're giving him too. So *fingers crossed* tomorrow should turn out to be a good day!
This afternoon is going to suck...I have to go spend time in our hot warehouse searching through damaged/defective material - at least I brought a change of clothes! Then I get the honor of cleaning out a filing cabinet to bring up front for me to use...I've been asking for one since April and I don't think it's going to happen unless I do it.
I found out a friend of mine from college that I used to work with is pregnant. They've been trying for about 2 years and finally things worked out for them. I was so excited for them when I found out this morning. I swear though, between this board and real life...everyone's sporting a baby bump! It's crazy
Laura, YUM. I want to go to there. I told H to just get me a nice steak for our anniversary, because I don't feel like going away right now.
Oh so glad it's Thursday. This week has gone by super quickly for me, not sure why. Looking forward to our first weekend that's relatively open since June or so. My back was killing me last night, and I realized I can't just slump over in my office chair, what with this basketball I'm carrying in front. So I've got to adjust myself during the day to avoid the pain at night. Ugh.
Shauni- I am jealous of your Key West vacation even though I only came back from mine 3 days ago. Tuesday at work I went on CL and looked for jobs there. I found a great one for Greg I kinda want him to apply for sh*ts and giggles. We actually talked about moving there a lot this weekend. If we have only 1 child we could move there and not have to look for a new house. Our house is a tiny 2 bedroom which would be very do able with 1 child. Which we also talked a lot about this weekend.
I over did myself yesterday at work with putting supplies away that I could not walk last night. We went out to take Pierce outside and Greg needed to help me down the one step to get outside. It took all my strength to a) get down that 1 step b) not pee myself from laughing that I couldn't make it down 1 step.
wait a minute....SuzieQ, I live north of Philly. I didn't realize you were in the area! After all this time. wtf!? lol
This week was awful. I've been working nonstop and we hit our first rough patch in our marriage. Luckily it didn't last long and we talked it out. I think that we are probably closer now in the aftermath. Thankfully, that's all sorted out now. Now I just have to keep working on these two projects. ugh
I feel like I missed a lot not being on the board for the last few days. Where did everyone go? To the offboard?
TTC since 2010
Me: 36, slightly elevated FSH. Everything else (hysterescopy, HSG, b/w) normal.
DH:30, with super sperm? >200mil post wash
BFP #1 - May 2011 - m/c @ 8weeks
IUI #1 - July 26 2012 - Femara = BFN
Suprise BFP Jan 15 2013. Hope this one sticks!
How is this week not over yet? I need it to be Friday already.
I had an "I told you so" moment with J last night when he realized his family sucks and doesn't care that he went down to visit. He's now at my parents house though because he doesn't have enough gas to make it here and there's no moola in the account because we miscalculated.
Today has been super busy and I have a full caseload at the pediatric outpatient place plus I *need* to go to the nursing home but alas, not enough hours in the day so I'll just do that tomorrow. And a caseload is building out there and I can't keep doing this hour drive thing so I'm going to call the VP and let him know he needs to get someone else to do it because it's too much for me now.
I often get crazy overwhelmed and emotional as my vacation nears. I think you know a break is on the horizon and you're pushing towards it.
I have to work on my marketing budget this afternoon.
Suckerrific.
Shauni - sorry to hear about a rough week, hang in there it's almost over.
Nothing too exciting yesterday, caught up on work & after work stopped off at Costco for cat food, organic chicken (hello sticker shock) and some other stuff including garbage bags for the next year, lol shelled out $87, eeeekkkks. Once I got home, sort of vegged out & made dinner and then took Allie the dog on a short walk and let her run in the park. Letting her off leash in the park was a mistake on my part...we have to work on recall and no distractions.
