Yawn.

It's a MondayTuesday.  I managed to lock myself out of the house this morning when I backed my car out of the garage to warm up.  Whoops.  I got back in without having to break any windows or jump over any fences, so all is well.

What's happening everywhere else?

Re: Yawn.

  • Not much going on here.  We had to convert my covered garden into a green house yesterday because of the cold.  I had to get my fruit trees into shelter to keep them from freezing. 

    We are headed to the library and the grocery store in a bit.  So exciting.

  • Boring here, too. Baby is napping, I'm trying to find motivation to clean. Blah.
  • Back to work...BOO!  It's cold and flurrying so we'll be staying inside after I'm done.  I can't decide if I want to make eggplant or chicken salsa roll ups for dinner tonight.

    After Sophia goes to bed tonight T and I are going to do a P90X workout.

  • Just got back from taking the doggies for a walk. Darcy being trained in Nosing is killing me while we walk. She finds a smell and hunts it down and I nearly have to drag her away! Oh well its fun to walk with both of them.

     I work today, and E has class tonight so it will just be me and the doggies tonight. I think I'm going to work on our bedroom and watch some Make It or Break It on Netflix. 

    I'm excited to go to work, E went to work with me for like an hour yesterday and helped me organize the shipment of file charts we got right before Christmas and take all the Christmas stuff down and get it put away. Dr and one coworker knew I was doing the charts but only coworker knew that I might take the Christmas stuff down. It will be nice to surprise them!

  • I've got a Dr. appointment to go to in a bit then M and I need to go grocery shopping. We also need to make a vet appointment and call the IL Dept. of Revenue. I expect to be on hold for a while today. Blah!

    That reminds me I have Netflix DVDs coming in the mail today!  Woot!

    You've got such a nice husband.  That was really nice of him to help you at work!

    Seriously I know! He comes and changes light bulbs for us and other stuff too. Dr isn't married and coworker doesn't let her husband do stuff like that because he breaks everything. And we are young so its easier for us. But it was really great he helped. I wouldn't have done the Christmas stuff but he said well we are already here it should just take a few minutes I don't mind helping you.

    Just have to love him!

  • Not much new here. I'm really groggy this morning, so WeeMan and I are chilling and watching the Today show for a bit. 

    We did a bad thing yesterday and went grocery shopping before having done any meal planning. So now I need to go through the stuff we bought and come up with a menu.

    I'm hoping to get the Christmas decor taken down and put away today, I'm tired of chasing the cat and the kid away from the tree.

    And that's the essence of life in this household...lol

  • It's also a MondayTuesday here; and the boss man is out of the office again today so it's an opportunity for me to wrap up a few things and get my office a bit organized before the next work load comes in. If only I could actually get motivated to do anything; I've been off work since Thursday and having a really hard time with the idea of being productive.

    And I've been wanting to eat my lunch since like 10:30.

    It could either be second breakfast or first lunch.  I loved multiple meals when I was pregnant.

  • Found out DH's home date has been postponed indefinitely. His replacements are being held over for unspecified reasons for an unspecified time. So... Yup, I knew I shouldn't have gotten excited. 

    Otherwise DD and I are going to be running errands all day so that when we get the last minute "I'm in the US" call I am prepared already LOL

    I'm behind you in time zones, but I already gave in and ate lunch.

    Oh, I'm sorry! Hopefully it's just a short delay! ((Hugs)) 

    I've seen a lot of military surprise homecomings. It wouldn't work on me. I always have my back to the corner and my face to the door. Looking for terrorists, criminals, various other threats, and husbands.

    That stinks, I'm sorry.  Like Stan said, hopefully it's a short delay.

    This is me too. And I actually left a couple hours early on Wednesday. I'm having a hard time finding my groove again! It doesn't help that the internet based computer program I need to use to do most of my job today isn't working either.

    I'm hoping I'll come home to all of the fi's Christmas presents put away so I can start taking the tree down and get the rest of my house cleaned. I'm not holding my breath though!

    LMBO, I confess to being insanely happy when 11:30 rolled around.  Glad your appetite is being kind to you finally.

  • Nothing much goin on here. We're on day two of our two-day drive back home from visiting my family, and it's bak to work and life tomorrow.
  • imageSgt M's Wife:

    FML... Seriously. I want to see some dang snow. Colorado has left me bitterly disapointed in its snow efforts this trip. 

    I will bet you it will stop tomorrow, just because I am coming back home.
