yay for Thursday.
Hi Ladies,
Yesterday, today, and tomorrow I have training on a reading program I will be teaching to a few students. I was glad to be out of the classroom yesterday and avoid PD today, but I'm kinda pissed that I had to give up my 3 day weekend for the training.
Myles still has his cold and I feel so sad for him. Sadly I think I am getting it from him. Who knew?

Re: yay for Thursday.
This week is going soooo slow. I feel like it should already be Friday. But at least it's almost here. Things are really busy at work for me right now, as I'm taking on the role of somebody who is leaving. Of course, I still have all my existing work to do too, so I'm feeling a little overwhlemed. But it's better than being underutilized, which is what I was feeling a few months ago.
I'm going to a hen do (aka bachelorette party) with the ladies from work tomorrow night, which I'm really looking forward to. A fun girls night out will do me some good I think.

Uhhhhhhhhgggggggg..... I'm sick. Boo. I felt it coming on yesterday and left work a bit early to go home and lay on the couch, but then I hardly slept last night. My throat is sore and there is sooooooo much crap coming out of my nose. Boo.
So, I'll be reading and sleeping all day, and attempting to stay hydrated. Anyone know any good, pregnancy approved cold remedies?
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
Morning!
I got up to try and run on the treadmill at the gym today but I just felt too hot so I only got a mile in and then hit the elliptical. In about an hour I have my OB appointment so I'm going to be late for work. I simply told my manager that I 'have a specialist appointment.'
Other than that, I work until 6pm and then I'm on call, boo. I have the late shift again tomorrow and then the weekend off.
Hopefully it isn't to bad for you. My cold a few weeks ago only lastes 3 days or so and I was so worried it would be extra bad.
The only thing I ever recommend is saline nasal spray to clear things out. Either a Netti Pot or Hydrasense, something like that. My OB did tell me Halls were safe. Just make sure to get plain ones (without echinacea and the such). Steaming yourself in the shower also helps.
Hope you feel better soon.

I'm tired and cranky today. Kyle and I had an argument last night so I didn't sleep all that well. I was already tired going into the day yesterday so now I'm just ready for the weekend. Well, I'm actually ready for Sunday since the rest of the weekend will be crazy busy.
Tonight I'm going out after work. I received a message yesterday from a friend's boyfriend that he'll be proposing to her and then suggesting that they go to a bar for a drink, at which point all of their friends will be there waiting for them. I'm so excited. I'm sure I looked like a fool sitting at my desk yesterday after receiving that message because I know that I had the biggest dorky smile on my face for the longest time.
After that I'm headed to a charity dinner. It's Halloween themed and I'm expecting that it should be a good time.
Good morning, ladies
It's so cold - 14* and foggy. And DH insisted on riding his bike to work. No, thanks - I'll do that in the summer, but not when it's below freezing.
Lots of work, but that's ok.
Have a great day, everyone!
I had a great time out last night with the NoVA GP Nesties. We are already talking about doing it again soon.
The weather here is gross today, but I guess that's ok, since I won't be longing to be outside instead of working. I still have a ridiculously long list of stuff to do. I guess it's always going to be like that, so I should just get to it.
I think I will take some time at the end of the day to pick out a new knitting project, since I can take Jim's car home and stop by the craft store for whatever I need. I have one scarf in the queue to start, but I'm itching to try something new with circular needles or DPNs.

Dora- It scares the pants off me. My brother used to scare me so bad with the story and clowns. ::shudders::
Raynes- I hope you feel better ick
LesPaul- I can't believe it's that cold and he wanted to ride his bike.
Last night was alright, Dh and I went to the park and I socialized and he flew a plane. Then we came home to watch one of our favorite shows and eat our favorite lazy dinner, cheese, ham and bread. So it was pretty nice.
I did sleep terrible. I have been having horrible nightmares lately. I dreamed last night that I got car jacked, someone tried to say they owned my families lake cottage and I kicked them out, lastly a friend from college left me to watch her baby and I felt very nervous and unprepared to help watch him. I woke up restless and nervous.
I am badk at work today. Jordan is feeling much better and is back at school. We went to the ear nose and throat doctor yesterday and he is going to have his tonsils removed on Novemeber 17th. I am so hoping this solves our issues and I pray everything goes good. I am also pretty excited that I will have an excuse to do nothing for a few days.
happy Thursday!
We had a great time yesterday at our playdate. I think we're going to make it a regular outing!
Today we'll be staying home to catch up chores and such. I think I'll try to schedule events every other day so we can catch up on naps and chores in between. I also have a little art project I want to work on for my dining room.
raynes sorry you're sick! I remember how much it sucked to not be able to take anything. I used the saline rinse too but I think I took Benadryl once or twice out of desperation to dry up the congestion and help me sleep. But listen to the pharmacist (ie Beth), don't listen to me!
abarber -how awesome that you get to be a part of that! Have fun!
Baby #2: Surprise BFP 9.19.12, EDD 5.24.13, natural m/c 10.19.13 at 9w
This is the crappiest day EVER. I've already cried. Twice.
1) I woke up too early (like an hour early).
2) All my curls that I painstakingly did this morning have fallen out.
3) My subway was late.
4) Blackberry Messenger is down.
5) I forgot my lunch.
6) I had a confrontation with the teacher who was trash talking me last year (who returned yesterday) that resulted in my crying. She said that she wasn't talking about me to students (lies) so I told her exactly what I'd heard back from her work BFF. She was upset that I stole "her drama class" and threw around the whole "I have 10 years at this school" nonsense.

Yeah me too! I first saw the movie when I was like 7 and ever since I can't stand clowns but now I'm curious to see if it creeps me out.
I used Tylenol cold & flu. It may not have been the safest thing, but I needed some relief. I also used Tylenol Night Time, because it at least knocked me out if I didn't feel well. You can usually ask your OB a quick med question. They were usually pretty helpful for me.
My mom has been in town since Monday, but I took her to the airport this morning on the way to class. Boo.
Yesterday was my "big" ultrasound, even though we found out early that it was a boy. It was awesome watching him get measured and seeing all of his new developments from the past 4 weeks.
Here is a 3D pic my doctor gave us. I can't believe how formed he is already. Now he just needs to get some fat on him!
Have an awesome Thursday everyone!
We got the munchkin to sleep until 4:30 last night. Hello 10 hours of sleep. If only he went to bed later than 6:30. I'm so sad I didn't go to bed earlier than 11. I've been dealing with computer issues. It's my own fault, so it's more annoying.
Tonight is picture day for the munchkin, Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice. Should be a chill night.
Anyone have good ideas for dinner? We're in a total funk.
Morning ladies.
Yesterday the boys had their 15 month appointments. Lets just say it is getting harder to keep them under control at the doctor's office when there is only one of you. Zach screamed from the time the nurse walked in (weighing, head measurements, etc.) until she left.
Oh well, I will just do my best, and pray that DH will be taking them next time. Ha ha. Anyhow Christian's head size is still really small (0.35% on the charts), but it goes along with his weight (8%), the only thing pretty normal is his height. (35%). There are no worries, because he is pretty much meeting most milestones. Zach on the other hand is above the 50% for everything. What a moose he is.
After the boys went to bed, I caught up on True Blood. The DVD has been sitting in my rooom for a week, and I just haven't been able to watch it.
Tonight DH is off so I am looking forward to some snuggle time.
It is like that up here, I am surprised that it is that cold where you are. It is suppose to be warm again this weekend. I am really debating if I want to leave the house, but I know that I should go to class because I am missing these class in 2 week for work training and Thanksgiving.
My face hurts today, I hope that it means the sinus the infection is moving out. I am going to clean my apartment a little before I leave for the day. I am meeting a friend for drinks after work so that should be fun.
Good Afternoon Ladies. I took a sick day today. Between constant waves of nausea and a cold that will not go away, I needed a day to rest. My brother arrives tomorrow evening for a (busy) weekend visit. Tomorrow night DH & I will probably take him out for a couple drinks. Saturday we are hosting a Halloween party for about 20 friends. Then on Sunday, we are going to the Eagles/Cowboys game. We probably won't get home till well after midnight, so DH and I took off on Monday.
Hope everyone has a nice afternoon!
ringy, I think I'll take some Benedryl tonight. It's ok'd in the little booklet the NP gave me at my first visit, I need some drying out and some sleep!
I just got up from a nap and feel a bit better. My throat isn't really sore anymore, but I'm still so stuffed up. FX I'm better tomorrow!
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
Evening!
I haven't been around much the last few days, but things here are fine. Nothing new really, just super busy. I am looking forward to tomorrow--should be an easy day. I am doing the "Alot monster" from Hyperbole and a Half with my students tomorrow, they are taking a quiz, and then we will probably play a game, so it should be a relaxing day and then weekend.
Oh, and it snowed here today. BOO.
