Morning!
Oy. I spent all day yesterday fighting to get my new desktop setup at work. It was supposed to be all ready to go yesterday morning, but noooooo, not even close. I sure am learning a lot more about Linux though!
Yesterday was a sad day in Canada, as the leader of the official opposition party passed away somewhat suddenly from a battle with cancer. He was a great man and it's really quite a loss for Canada.
Tonight will be just general cleaning around the house (this will take more than just one evening, the house is a mess) and tomorrow I've got my first doctor's appointment!
How is everyone today?

BFP 5/2/11, missed m/c, D&C 6/13/11
BFP 12/8/11--Little Girl E Born 8/22/12
I was quite sad to hear about Jack Layton.
Today I will try to be more productive than yesterday. I didn't get anything done that I wanted to yesterday (other than my run and massage) because I was pretty beat all day.
I plan on working on getting my address changed on a bunch of things (phone bill and mastercard - they still go to my Dad's, lol), go to the gym (spin class?), shop for bookcases and do laundry so I can pack to leave on vacation tomorrow.
Have a great day.

Good morning!
It's just a normal work day here for me. Right now, I am all alone in the office, which makes me quite happy. Sadly, it won't stay that way for long. I have a bunch of stuff that needs to get done over the next couple of days.
My BFF is coming to town for a work thing on Thursday, so we are going to hang out Thursday night and I am taking a half day Friday before she heads to the airport.

Morning laides!
Last night was uneventful for me as well. Played with the boys, bath time, and they were off to bed and I wasn't to far behind them.
Today I have a work lunch, and honestly I don't want to go. It is my boss and one other girl from my team. Ok I have to say it, think of What not to Wear, and this is said coworker. She drives me bonkers because she thinks she knows it all, and has the most annoying laugh you have ever heard!
Tonight DH doesn't have to work so I am looking forward to a nice family evening.
Good Morning
DH took my car to get it serviced yesterday and picked up Preston's birthday present. Last night I made a yummy supper and enjoyed some down time on the couch.
I plan to do much of the same thing tonight. I would love to get outside and do some work in flower beds but it is just to hot. I am so ready for cooler weather.
Good morning. Nothing much going on over here. Yesterday was my book club, which ended up being pretty fun despite the crappy book. Tonight is a gym night, so it should be low key.
Our big current worry is Hurricane Irene; we're supposed to go to FL this weekend. I know the current track has the hurricane making landfall in the Carolinas, but you never know with these things. I'd be fine with canceling the trip; I just don't want to be anywhere near the place where the hurricane makes landfall. I hope it just dissipates and affects no one.
Hope everyone has a great one.
Good morning! Last night I left work a bit early to make it to an earlyish yoga class, so I actually got home before 8, yay! Class was hard in the "hurts so good" kind of way, but I couldn't wait for it to be over because I had forgotten to wash my Yogitoes towel after last class, and let's just say poses like chaturanga and child's pose were less than pleasant. After I got home, I made quinoa and veggies for dinner and started in on Season 2 of Mad Men on Netflix.
I'm hoping today goes by quickly. I've got a couple of late meetings this afternoon and then Total Body Conditioning class at the gym, followed by a repeat of last night's dinner and TV entertainment.
ETA: Chica, I am also anxiously following the progress of the hurricane! This weekend is the ONLY time all summer H and I could coordinate our schedules to allow us to go to the Cape house, and I am going to be really pissed if our long weekend is ruined by storms.
OMG! I AM DYING.
These stupid allergens taped to my back are killing me and totally warrant caps lock. If you've never seen a patch test before, basically they covered my entire upper back with 5 patches, each containing samples of 10 different common allergens. They then unrolled half a roll of tape across my back to try and keep them in place while I enjoy not being allowed to have a shower.
So now, I'm just waiting to start to feel incredibly itchy. Only, last night, I woke up and my back felt like it was burning in places. It hurt to lie on top of it. And now I'm definitely feeling the itch. And they're keeping the patches on for another 24 hours.
I'm SO cranky right now! Bah humbug.
Raynes - I'm so sad about Jack Layton. He and his wife's home is around the corner from us. We'd see them occasionally and he was always so nice and friendly. He was really a great man - so ethical and with such passion for helping people. And the letter he wrote? I was totally sobbing after reading it. It was beautiful.

I'm still trying to figure out where my evening went. I talked to my mom on the phone and got in a good workout. I feel like I didn't sit down all night but can't figure out if I accomplished anything.
Today is my brother's birthday so I'm taking him out for lunch. Then tonight he wants to get together with some friends for dinner, so I am quite possibly meeting him for dinner/drinks as well. Otherwise I hope to get in another good workout. I'm also still quite exhausted after coming back from vacation. I'd love to go to bed early tonight, but that never seems to happen.
Good morning! I had an uneventful night as well, just dinner a bubble bath, and off to bed. The painters are still working on our house so the windows are still covered in plastic which means no air circulating through our house, so it was a pretty hot and stuffy night which led to tossing and turning...yuck!
Nothing exciting planned for today just work and hopefully a good workout if I have enough energy.
Good morning!
Yesterday was alright, I talked to my Mom who I have talked to in ages. It was good to talk to her. Then I went on a running, partially with Dh. For his first day of running. Came home ate the last of my first paella. (A proud moment in cooking for me.) Then watched last weeks Project Runway. I'm such a sucker for shows that make things.
I'd be pissed, too, because that sounds like a fun weekend. My only goal this weekend is to avoid being forced to evacuate our hotel and being stuck at my ILs house without power and nowhere to go. So if the flight's canceled? I'll take it!
Well, I hope for both of our sakes that the storm dissipates or goes off-course. And if that can't happen, then I hope your flight does indeed get cancelled and you guys can avoid being holed up with the in-laws
Morning! Today is my last day off before heading back to school tomorrow. We have 8 days of professional development before the school year even starts. So I am spending today vegging out on the couch.
Last night was pretty uneventful. Our a/c is not working, so our home warranty company sent a guy out from a local company to check it out. Apparently the compressor is shot, and can cost thousands to replace it. We are keeping our fingers crossed that our warranty covers at least part of it.
Tonight I am heading to a friends house to participate in an all-girl fantasy football draft. I am trying to research what I can, but I pretty much have no idea what to expect. But there will be plenty of food and wine, so I'm sure it will be a good time.
