Good Morning!

How is everyone today?

Derek and I hit up Home Depot last night to get a few things.  Our friend the electrician is coming by on Friday to connect the wiring for the kitchen to the panel, so we need to make sure we have all the electrical type things on hand.  Yay/boo, the undercabinet lighting we're going with is SUPER on sale, but they were sold out, so now we have to try a few more stores!

Tonight, I have no idea, raking leaves?

Re: Good Morning!

  • Good morning!

    Today we are going to the doctor. It's time for Darian's 4 month (yeah, 4 MONTHS!) checkup... and shots  :( I'm going to attempt taking transit with him strapped in the carrier instead of driving for the first time, that might be an adventure. It's just too much of a hassle dealing with parking, carseats and strollers by myself.

  • Good morning! I'm in a much better mood today. The hotel found a fan for me, so my room, although still warm, at least has some air circulating. I was able to sleep much better last night. I found out that we had no damage from the tornado yesterday. I guess it hit closer to the park in town. I haven't seen any pictures or anything in the news so I'm guessing that any damage there was minimal.

    Tonight I'm hoping for a quiet night in the hotel room. It will be my last night here so I just want to relax and enjoy the last night.  Have a great day!

  • Good morning! Last night was quiet--Josh and I just made dinner, then relaxed, so nothing too exciting. Tonight was supposed to be my book club meeting, but that was postponed. So tonight will be a gym night, followed by some serious reading--the book I have to review for the review site is looong, and I'm not even halfway through. It comes out on Nov. 28, and I want to be timely with my review because it has some good buzz around it.

    Hope everyone has a great one!

  • Hello ladies.  Nothing much going on here. Busy day at work.  DH has a work dinner tonight, so I would have liked to go to the gym, but I'm afraid I'll probably just end up working late.  Fun.  I'll be so glad when this month is over and so many of my deliverables are done.

  • Good morning ladies!

    I am in a much better mood today, as I finally got some much needed sleep.  I think I was out by 9. Of course Zach slept all night, but only because DH was there.

    Tonight, I am starting to make a list of everything I need to pack for vacation.  I have no idea what little toys I am going to bring for the boys. I think we are going to have to pack a whole other suitcase just for their diapers, wipes, sippy cups, and some toys. 

    Anyhow, crazy week at work, have a great day ladies!

  • Good morning!

    Last night was really nice. DH cooked so I played with the boys and we went to see my grandmother to show her pictures of jordan's first deer he killed on Sunday. I got a few projects started that I saw on Pinetrest I have been wanting to do. I am hoping to get them finished tonight.

    I was really wanting to go to a scentsy party a coworker is having tonight, but I don't have anyone to keep the boys. I don't mind taking Jordan but it doesn't start till 6:30 and Preston is in bed by 7 or he is REALLY ill. I am opting out because I know if I go I will only end up stressed out trying to entertain preston. o well maybe next time.

  • Good morning!

    We finally, finally, finally resolved the phone/internet issues at the office and have signed a contract with a new provider.  Also, the boss will be leaving early Thursday and won't be back until after Thanksgiving.

    In other good news, Jim found out yesterday that they did find someone to cover for him on Thanksgiving so he can have the day off after all.  Yay!!

    Tonight, I am playing pub quiz, so that will be fun.

  • Morning ladies.  It was an unexciting evening for me yesterday, as I worked late.  A new deal just hit yesterday that has to close before year end.  It's going to be a crazy one for sure!

    Today is much of the same.  I'm supposed to have lunch with the head of my department and the other associates in my office (there are only 3 of us).  

    I'm counting down the days until I leave for London.  Can't wait!

  • Good morning.

    Today has been a great day so far. I woke up to find out DH is taking me to Empire State South tonight for my birthday. I can't wait. I've been really wanting to try another of Hugh Acheson's restaurants. Bonus We can walk there from our house. Yipee.

    As for today I'm painting some molding, and finishing my fake walls for a meeting tomorrow night. I hope I get the rest of the samples I need in time.

  • Good Morning,

    Today has been good. It is nice and clear outside which will probably make for a rather cold day. Our apartment is really badly insulated and I've been waking up shivering early in the morning. I think I will have to bring another blanket to bed. 

    Other than that there really isn't much going on. I was finally able to find a job, just during the holiday season but, at least it is something. I can search for another job while working. I so look forward to B being done school and starting in his position.

  • Good morning! Last night was extremely uneventful. Jason is still sick so I made some soup for dinner then he went to bed at like 7:00. I watched a little TV and played around online for while.

    Today should be pretty low key as well. Two of the partners are out of the office all week so I'm hoping to get caught up on some busy work while they're gone. Jason stayed home sick again today so I have a feeling tonight will be exactly like last night.

    Have a great day ladies!

  • I feel really rested after a few good nights of sleep. DH doesn't get to see Jackson at all on weeknights, so he usually doesn't mind waking up for night time feedings. It's really the only time they get other than a bit on the weekends. I know it's starting to be really hard on DH to not get to enjoy his son.

    Tomorrow is supposedly the lunch with the partners I've been waiting for. The problem is that my friend told me as a heads up, but I haven't actually gotten a call to find out where it is and to confirm it. I'm afraid I'm all anxious for nothing. It's fine by me right now, because I'd really like to start this new job after the new year. I get killer vacation time, and it's our really busy season. My boss will already flip out if I tell her I'm leaving, so if I can get her through this hard time, I think she'll feel a little better.

  • Good morning kadies! I'm going to be working on G's birth announcements today, housework and hopefully a trip to the grocery store. DH is sick and G is back to 3 hour stretches at night so I'm tired.

  • Eva - enjoy dinner! Happy birthday :) 

    Just work, work and work today. A bit of laundry tonight and maybe some list making for Thanksgiving since I'm OOT until late Sunday night this week and don't want to be at the store on Wednesday night.

  • Good morning ladies! Last night was low key. I hung out with my family and ate pizza in honor of my brother's birthday. I'm about to head to another location to show a safety video. I'm hoping to sit in the back and finish reading my book.

    Tonight I'm making chicken of some sort. Most likely shake and bake with a side of green beans and mashed potatoes. It will be another low key day for us. Hope everyone has a great day!

  • I am late. I got lost in Denver going to this love and logic conference. I was going to be there early, but no I got lost so I was late. It has been interesting. When I get home it is going to be homework, homework, homework.

  • Afternoon!  Nothing new here.  My kids were irritating today, but other than that, the day was fine.  I came home and got a run in.  Now I am making soup and roasted broccoli for dinner.  Ed is out until late having a work dinner, so I am excited about a lazy evening alone.

  • Hey ladies!  More unpacking and organizing here, and we found a big cubey bookcase on craigslist so we'll be picking that up and reassembling it tonight.  The apartment is finally coming along and feels a bit more like a home than a pile of boxes.  Yay!

    Now jumping domestically.

    Well that was a crazy couple of years.
