Is it Friday yet? Randoms
Morning everyone! I hope your day is starting off better then mine.

Re: Is it Friday yet? Randoms
I'm sorry you're having a rough day so far.
I am actually in an amazingly good mood today. My afternoon class is cancelled (thus all those icky Friday make-ups I had to do earlier this month), I'm feeling really on top of my workload for the first time since school started and tomorrow is already Friday! Oh, and this afternoon I'm headed up to see my family.
Mia was very restless and hyper last night when we put her to bed. She woke up a little before 11pm and tried to climb in our bed and Brian put her back. She was fussing and whimpering. I went in there to try to sooth her. She is getting over a cold, so I could tell she didn't feel good. I finally bought her downstairs to watch a little TV. I thought maybe I could distract her a bit and then start bed time over again. So we were watching Yo Gabba Gabba last night. I really should email Nick Jr. and tell them that they should put their "slower" shows on at night like Little Bear. I then tried putting her in our bed, but that lasted about 2 minutes before Brian and I got fed up with it.
She finally went to bed around 11:30. I'm hoping tonight goes smoother.
I had a cold earlier this week and was just starting to feel better yesterday. Obviously, I'm far too stubborn to actually take it easy when I'm not feeling well, so I insisted that we go hiking yesterday like we had originally planned. I think I overdid it though and now I feel 10 times worse. I think maybe I have bronchitis now? I don't know. I haven't had it since I was a kid so I really don't know how to tell. But I woke up with a nasty cough that hurts my chest.
I'm going to maintain my stubbornness and say that it was still worth it though. It was a beautiful hike!
I hope Bri, Kita, and Mia (and their moms!) have better days today!
Glad to hear things are going well for you today, Diana.
Sorry that your feeling worse Kasa.
Happy Birthday Charity!!
The ups and downs of parenthood.
This is my last week at the part time job. I'm thinking ( like usual ) my husband's sense of timing was spot on. SS is starting to cause a few problems and it looks like its going to be a good idea that both of us are home at night.
We are getting new a new mattress tomorrow so I'm working from home - can't wait! It's king size, will be so nice. You'd be surprised how much room little Italian Greyhounds take up :-)
Has inspired us to rearrange furniture in the rest of our house, it's so nice to have DH involved for once. We've been able to reuse things that were in the basement, I love when that happens. Will also be Craigslisting some stuff.
Henry and I went ArtPrizing after dropping Willa off at school this morning.
Kasa, I think you'd better get to the doctor. Can you do after hours care? Every cold of mine ends up in a sinus infection or bronchitis, so I might be quick on the trigger, but you don't sound well, and I know Saturday is a long day for you.
I hope tonight is a better night for all.
Happy birthday, Charity.
Thank you
Thank you
I'm better... really! No need for the doctor!
(*cough cough*)
If this cough isn't better tomorrow, I'll check in with a doctor.
