It is significantly less cold outside today, and that makes me much happier.
Last night was ok. I'd been having a down day so I needed to just lay on the couch and have a cry for a little while. So I did, then I got up, started making dinner and had a nice little workout and felt much much better after. Silly hormones.
We finally started going through all the junk in one of our spare bedrooms last night. It's basically just a room full of junk (and well, useful things that you can't get to) so it was good to get some of it sorted.
Tonight, the dentist! Booooooo.
How is everyone today?

We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

Re: Good Morning!
You're on here early today Raynes, and it's ok just to take the time to cry. Otherwise, those hormones will get the best of you.
Last night was good. I worked a little late, and when I got home dinner was ready. DH helped me with baths (which normally doesn't happen), and then the boys actually sat down on the floor and listened while we did storytime. (Daycare is truly helping with this). I loved every minute of it.
Today is a day of meetings, and lots of files to complete. Looking forward to another evening at home with the fam, and of course Grey's Anatomy!
I'm feeling a bit better this morning. I still have a nagging cough, but I think the worst has passed. I'd still like to get home early to keep resting up though.
Last night didn't do too much as I wanted to just relax. I did try to start my (UK) taxes, but then realized I couldn't do it online and had to buy and download a separate programme. Such a pain, but I will get it done - deadline is Jan 30.
Tonight I'll try to make some more progress on the taxes. I think we'll also be booking our flights for a trip to Italy in May. We plan on spending a week in Tuscany and then 4 days in Rome. I can't wait!
I also can't wait for Grey's Anatomy! But because of the time difference I won't see it until tomorrow night - so no spoilers ladies!

Good morning!
Last night we had a bareakfast supper and then played wii with jordan and tickled preston. I love nights I get to play with both the boys. It was an early night for the boys last night since today was Jordan's first day back at school.
Tonight I am guessing we will have homework, but hopefully since DH is home today it will be done before I get home.
I am happy that today is Thursday and its ALMOST friday.
Good morning! I'm in a little early this morning because Jim is going to court to fight a traffic ticket.
I was so frustrated by the time I got done with the pharmacy last night that I didn't feel like doing anything. I got home, sat my butt on the sofa and that's where I stayed. I didn't work out, I didn't cook, I didn't even eat.
It is about 20* warmer here this morning compared to yesterday and that has already made today a better day.

crystal - I couldn't agree more on the almost Friday comment. The weekend can't come soon enough!
I had a lazy night last night too. I felt kind of crappy all afternoon, so I got home and talked on the phone to one of my friends. Then I hung out on the couch all night until I went to bed. It felt really nice to take a night off.
Tonight I'm hoping to workout again. Other than that, we'll see what happens and where the night takes me.
Good morning, ladies.
Boot Camp - check. I'm so happy with my morning exercise schedule now. I think this is going to work well.
Have a great day, everyone!
Good morning!
Thanks for the nice comments on the other post yesterday. I went to my first prenatal yoga class last night and it was so nice to stretch. I've done nothing active this whole pregnancy bc I was too afraid. She was kicking away the last 15minutes of class... probably like 'what the hell are you doing out there, why aren't you on the couch watching repeats of HIMYM?!?'...
Nothing big going now really... need to make my final batch of Buckeye Balls for our friends belated holiday party on Saturday. Looking forward to seeing everyone, not looking forward to sleeping on an air mattress on the floor...
PS - Starsailor, I can't believe how much hair Olivia has!! And Ciaram22, the pic of Edmund sleeper in the exersaucer is hysterical!

I'm hoping that Grey's Anatomy is worth the wait tonight. I hate how they split their season. I'm surprised they still have people watching. Grrr. It's also the return of Jersey Shore tonight..hehe
Work is super slow since there aren't even students on campus yet, and I'm still anxiously awaiting a phone call from the job I interviewed for. Word is I got it, but they have to fire someone, so now I sit and wait. it's frustrating, because I'd like to know so I can just gear up already. Thankfully they start an hour later than my current job, or I'd be screwed. There's no flexibility there. Time to put on my big girl panties.
I love the babies and bumps post. Pictures are great! I wish I had more patience to actually load pics to an online source, other than just my hard drive.
Good morning!
Last night was fun. I ended up going playing trivia at a my local pub. It was a lot of fun and my team did pretty well. I hope it can become a wednesday night thing. Tonight another friend is coming over to start watching season two of Downton Abby. I'm nerd-ily excited.
Good morning. Yesterday was another conk-out-early kind of day. I started to feel nauseous (along with the bobble-head feeling) when I headed home, and that didn't go away, so the gym was out. I just tried to take it easy for the rest of the evening.
Today I woke up feeling pretty much the same, so we'll see how today/tonight goes. I'm just glad that Josh hasn't gotten whatever the hell I have.
Work's been busy so far this morning, but that's good--at least the day's moving along! Have a great one, ladies.
Morning everyone. Things here are pretty much the same. Work is busy for January, and I'm just trying to get everything done timely.
ETD: In an effort not to hijack the good morning post, see MO's post to me for my Casey update.
Good morning. Yesterday I got a really good Groupon deal from a local lighting company ($500 for $175) so I spent over two hours last night browsing their website for a new entryway light and one to go on the wall in the stairway. I found a ton of lights and accessories that I loved, now I just need to narrow down my choices.
Today is supposed to be beautiful here, sunny with a high of 65*F! I'm going to try to take a walk on my lunch break and enjoy some sunshine. No exciting plans for tonight just dinner, a little TV, and hopefully an early bed time.
Good morning!
I'm having one of those housework days - catching up on the 15 million loads of laundry that need doing and hanging art around the apartment. I'd really like to get our bedroom squared away and finished soon! The living room is getting finished (ish - for now anyway), the kitchen and sunroom are as complete as they're going to be (at least until we get that new fridge I've been promised) and that just leaves the second bedroom (currently junk central).
And then I'm going to pretend that I'm going to get to my marking today, when we all know that's not going to happen until Sunday afternoon.

Good morning!
I think I will take a gander at strolling over to the library today, now that the weather is a bit nicer. Darian and I haven't been out much the last couple of days because it was so cold and I think he'd like to get out.
I have a bit of spare yarn, probably enough to make a test scarf for Darian using that pattern I posted yesterday, so if I get time during his naps, I'm going to try that out.
I also signed up for swimming lessons which start Tuesday, very excited about that!

Erinn - I still can't believe how much hair Olivia has and how long it is already.
Good morning ladies! I am feeling better today and since last night was DH's turn to get up with Olivia, I don't feel so sleepy. I expect work will be a bit hectic since my to do list from yesterday is carrying over to today. Tonight I'll probably throw a pizza in the oven because I didn't take anything out. Unless MIL sends left overs again which I'd be perfectly happy with. I'll probably do some laundry and watch whatever's on the dvr and if I'm lucky, I'll do some reading too.
Hey Susi, I hesitate to say this since I'm not sure how you feel about it, but is there any chance you should POAS?

I was thinking this too but didn't want to say anything for the same reason.
Well, if it's that, at least Josh can't get it (he has two presentations to give at a conference in CA this weekend)!
But the chances are pretty slim. It did cross my mind, though ... and what was nice was that the idea didn't make me freak out. If it keeps lingering, maybe I'll tackle that this weekend.
I've had another poopy day.
There was another sick call at work today so they wanted me to come in early and considering I put in overtime yesterday, there was no way that was happening today. It was so busy at work tonight (we're open until 8pm now) that we didn't get our dinner break (although I did eat, just had to wolf it down while working) and then ended up staying 45 minutes overtime because of a complicated patient issue. I'm on call tonight and hoping I don't get paged, especially about the complex patient we stayed late for since the other pharmacist dealt with it while I put out all the other fires.
DH took my car in today for an oil change and tire rotation so he dropped me off and picked me up at work. This meant he was stuck sitting there for 45 minutes waiting for me to get done. He seemed pretty grumpy and I kept apologizing and that we were late and then I finally figured out he was angry that he was stuck there but something must have happened with Winston. Yes, I was right. A few minutes before Mark was leaving, Winston peed on the blinds outside the sliding glass window again. Nothing seems to be working and I don't know what our breaking/deciding factor is going to be with this cat. Needless to say, I cried most of the drive home.
Hoping tomorrow is better.
I thought the same thing but I didn't feel comfortable saying anything.
