WTF Wednesday

shauni27 · September 2011

My car broke down last night. Caroline has been a perfect peach of a car for 4 years, never an issue EVER and all day yesterday she stalled out everytime I shifted gears. EVERY TIME. And then when I was driving, every time I the gas she started acting all weird. I am looking at about $1000 in repairs...and we just got back from vacation. That Gerren did not get PTO for. So we are screwed.

My GERD is acting up. Every thing I eat/drink/etc tastes bitter. It is the most horrible and annoying and frustrating side effect ever.

There are ten million fruit flies in my office. I have killed about 45 in 2 days and yet they are infinite.

I hate that fall is almost here.

I only have 2 (maybe 3??) long runs left before my race and I am scared shltless.

The end. Hope you are all having a better Wednesday than me!

Awww Shauni, I'm sorry about your car! Maybe get a second estimate somewhere else and see if you can get the repairs done for cheaper?

I am absolutely exhausted from getting up to take the puppy out in the middle of the night EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT. and driving home from work for lunch every day when she is still house breaking. She is doing SO well though, so it's worth it! H and I had a mini fight last night because I left him to watch her for a few minutes while I went to take a shower. She had gone potty every time I took her out all day, had no accidents, etc, and as soon as I come downstairs from the shower H is all pissed because she peed in the living room. Seriously, she's fine for me but I leave him to watch her for just a few minutes and all hell breaks loose? He was distracted by his computer and wasn't watching her closely enough. UGH.

We have her first puppy training and socialization class tonight though, so that should be fun and full of puppy cuteness!

3 dayssss until Puerto Rico and we are both in desperate need of vacation. Can't wait!!!

Oh Shauni- I totally understand care issues. I feel we are always having them and they always happen when other big money things, good or bad, had just happened.

Yesterday was awful! I was in such pain I cried all the way home from work. I feel so bad for complaining about it but I just hurt.

You can add me to the list of annoyed with husband. He gets out of work late goes out for drinks w people after work. He has been coming home at like 2-2:30 am all the time. I will wake up in the middle of the night realize he is not home yet and I can't get back to sleep. I know he is doing this now because he wants to get it out before the baby comes but every night.

Yuck to car troubles!!! Fingers crossed that maybe it won't cost that much!!

last night was ok. Had a craptastic day and all i wanted to do was go home, eat, and take a bath and spend the rest of the night alone. Sent J a text warning him of this.

So i made dinner, we ate, i took a bath, and then laid on the bed watching tv. It was great- except the part when J came in and didn't want to watch what i was watching so I had to remind him that i warned him, and he has, literally, 35 hunting shows on the dvr that he could watch in the livingroom.

Then my lame butt, was asleep around 8. :-)

Here's hoping weds. goes fast and we get that much closer to friday!

WTF is right. Car troubles suck. (Some) Husbands suck.

Left early to get DD and fill up the gas tank this morning. Stopped at a different gas station than usual only to find out that they have different cash & credit prices (I do not frequent stations who do this b/c it pisses me off). So I paid $0.16 more per gallon b/c I wanted to get to work earlier today. $#@%

Someone started a fire in the building today so we were evacuated a little before 9 and spent about 45 minutes outside. Fire trucks showed up after about 30 minutes...good thing the place wasn't burning down!

I'm just bitchtastic right now. And not even PMSing. I really need to get over this.

LauraT25 · September 2011

Aww sorry Shauni. Car issues are the suck.

I promised myself that I would be really productive today, but of course I am currently browsing Amazon for pre-conception books instead. Okay, so I will be REALLY productive after lunch!

mushE · September 2011

Caroline! Get back in shape! Sorry, Shauni.

I'm eating an egg mcmuffin, trying to calm my stomach. I am so super ready to hit the easy part of pregnancy! They said in birth class on Monday that many women feel better after baby drops, because it makes more room at the top of your torso. I'm fine when standing or lying down, but when I sit, my bump rides up and by the end of the day I'm super in pain. Grr. 10 more weeks of this? I don't think so.

Laura, I highly recommend either Taking Charge of Your Fertility, or just signing up for Fertility Friend (.com) (it's free). I only did FF, and they email you these lessons over the course of a few weeks, and I learned a ton. I'm very Type A so I wasn't able to just totally let things fly at first, so I also bought ovulation kits and cheapie pregnancy tests (Wondfo brand) from Amazon. The pg tests are very good quality; many girls on GP get a positive there before a digital or FRER. And you can get like 25 for $5 or something. Anyway, we got pg the second month I used the ovulation test strips, and the first month I actually used them correctly, lol.

LauraT25 · September 2011

Thanks for the rec, Mush, I made myself a note. I'm not quite ready for all that yet, but I was thinking about things along the lines of preparing for pregnancy (financially, emotionally, health-wise, etc). If that makes sense.

tbearsangel · September 2011

Sorry Caroline is giving you crap Shauni, and you'll do awesome on your half marathon, just keep training and everything else will fall into place. If the biggest loser contestants can do it when they are still considered obese or overweight, you can without worry.

Laura, I saw on the confessions thread that J is coming around. JEALOUS. you should have him give my hubby a call. I wish we were in the same place right now.

I'm not feeling productive at all today. I subbed for a half day on Monday and since then, the week has been DRAGGING. It's only Wednesday!?!? bah. I did two loads of laundry, vaccuumed the whole house and dusted the living room area yesterday, so today is looking to be boring as all get out. I really should shut myself in my craft room. I am still way behind on my scrapbooking and I have a few things I need to check off the list in there before life back at work takes over again.

I was excited last week though that I finished the velcro coverings for H's hunting bow. It's a bright blue competition style bow and he can't really hunt with it as it is... (I needed his help before working on it b/c of all the stuff sticking out on it) I am SO glad that's done.

There is a super easy part of pregnancy?!?!? I've had a week here and a week there that I have felt pretty good.

tI'm thinking the super easy part is when I will not be pregnant anymore.

Boo to car troubles and cranky husbands (mine included).

This week is seriously wiping me out. I have been working in the restaurant more than normal since we seem to be short staffed lately and people have been sick. To top that off we have been crazy busy, equally a very sore body today.

Today I am picking up my dress for the wedding we are attending this weekend, hoping it now fits since there is no time for touch up alterations. Then I have to do laundry and go to work. Tomorrow I am working from noon to 11:30 and some how have to find time to pack and shop before we leave early Friday morning.

CRickey....I can't believe it's 3pm and I'm just getting around to posting. I popped on earlier but got distracted...by work. hahaha

I hope that Caroline isn't as much as a brat as Tina is.

Fire in a building? geez. Everything has been so exciting around here lately.

This morning I seriously considered murdering my husband in his sleep> he just laid there, sleeping blissfully through his alarm clock that he set 45 mins earlier than I had to get up. He is working from home today and could sleep as late as he wanted. He also insists on putting his alarm in the bathroom so you are forced to leave the bed to go turn it off. Also, I had a most fitful slumber last night. Oh, the depths of rage I felt this morning....

In college my housemate was notorious for sleeping through her alarm, that was also across her room. It was a Little Mermaid alarm clock that play the most annoying version of "Under the Sea". Our door where directly across the hall from each other. I could hear her alarm even with both doors closed. Thank goodness she was/is my bff and PIC in college because I probably would have stabbed her if she wasn't

Christ almighty, you're a better woman than I. I'm already having visions of smashing Ariel's plastic, smiling, clock face in...

Seriously...I can't handle the alarms.

Jeff used to hit snooze like ten times before getting up and it drove me NUTS. Just freaking set the alarm for when you actually want to get up, instead of 30 minutes earlier! Because I can't go back to sleep, even if you can!

Xtine22 · September 2011

I do not do snooze. I set my clock for the time I need to be up by. I would much rather the uninterrupted sleep.

In college if I hit the snooze button I was not going to class.

I still sometimes and haunted by Ariel..

Hola! Yesterday, DH was able to get off of work early and we left close to 2pm, arriving near Disneyland close to 8pm. We walked around Downtown Disney and called it a night at 1030pm, we were both pooped! Got up this morning at 8am, hit up Denny's for breakfast and then got into the park when they opened and man this place is stroller city, lol. Lines for rides were not too bad so far, we still have more to go on and of course I've got my eye on a few Halloween things. Now, we're just hanging out in the hotel room (extra plus for having one across the street from the park) and then going to eat dinner and hopefully catch The World of Color show. I'm so bummed that they aren't doing Fantasmic until Friday night, which will be long after we leave

DH and I are having a blast though, that's all that matters.

wait a minute...are you and Steph there at the same time?
