Re: manic monday
Best - Getting baby girl's bookshelf assembled and all of her clothes organized and put away. Now all of the furniture for the nursery is put together and in it's right spot!!!!!!!! I can't wait for my mom to finish all the sewing!
Worst - Being exhausted and totally losing my mind. Thank goodness we have a 3 day weekend coming up and then the next weekend we are off to the beach!
best - baby k slept straight through the night until 5 am both mornings.
worst - my back keeps hurting and it makes it hard to exercise. how am i supposed to lose the baby weight if i can't exercise?
Baby K ~ born July 1
best: seeing friends all weekend and expressing all my SSB (secret single behaviors) at home since DH was out of town
worst: my spa appt was running way late and i needed to be somewhere right afterward so i ended up getting stressed out when i was supposed to be de-stressing. i went to a couples shower by myself and felt totally awkward
Adventures of A Girl and Her Apron
best - getting a lot of our shrubbery trimmed and cut down, volunteering for the first time at my church last night - i had a blast
worst - said cutting down of shrubbery made for a very sore back! and i didn't sleep last night, so i am exhausted!
Best: We had a super productive weekend and got a ton of work done to our house.
Worst: No time to relax this weekend, and my body decided 5:45am was a great time to wake up the past 3 mornings even though no alarm was set. Tired.
Best: Relaxing for several hours yesterday afternoon. It's been ages since I've gotten to do nothing for more than a few minutes. My team's annual women's only bike ride was a huge success! We can't wait to do it again next year. I also got to meet a fellow cycling Nestie! Dinner at Muss and Turners Sat. night with DH was delicious.
Worst: My shoulder is still hurting badly. I have been sleeping courtesy of muscle relaxers and a heating pad.

best - got to see an adorable baby on Sat morning! he has giant squishy cheeks.
worst - put so much more milage on my car this weekend. Wheeeeeee. Went to visit FIL on Sat, stayed at MILs fam's house. It makes for a very rough weekend driving so much.
Call me Kat =^..^=
Best - pretty much everything - late dinner w/ friends on Friday, got my hair cut on Saturday, ran a few errands, a lunch out with friends on Sunday, got lots of stuff done around the house, saw Rio
Worst - none that I can think of
best: getting more work done in our bathroom....we may get this bad boy functional in a week or so yet! (we're doing the shower area separately from the rest of the bathroom...basically we want it to be a working half bath for right now).
PIP for noelle!
worst: having to send a very polite, professional eff you email to the news director at my old station. he decided to blatantly ignore that i wasn't going to work thursday and friday nights, to appease another producer who likes to throw tantrums and whine to get her way.
so i bailed. and i kind of love it.

Hayley - Did you really quit already?! PS Your tile looks amazing.
Best: Fun bachelorette party with old friends in Athens. It was a blast.
Worst: Feeling over-committed and completely stressed out trying to get ready to leave for our trip. It just sucks to feel like I can't even get excited about leaving because I'm stuck working my ass of up until the minute we get out of here.
i did indeed
the news director decided it was better to keep this one chick happy who loves to come in his office and whine when her schedule gets changed than to have another body to help out...he BLATANTLY ignored our discussions from the beginning that i didn't want to work thursday and friday nights. he said he'd work with my schedule and that definitely did NOT happen...so i told him i was done.
i definitely realized that i left for a reason...and being good at something isn't a good enough reason to keep doing it, if you don't love it.
