Good Morning!

Well, I knew yesterday's internet filter failure was too good to be true.  FB and all that is back to it's normal blocked self.  Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.  I need to get work done anyway!

I'm off work early today, we've got our follow-up energy audit.  Of course that means that last night we were furiously cleaning and house and applying weather stripping to everything.

Tonight we might be heading out to look at appliances.

How is everyone today?

Re: Good Morning!

  • Hello ladies.  The nest kept eating every response I tried to post yesterday, so hopefully I'll have better luck today! Things have been pretty busy at work, so not sure how much time I will have to post these days, but I'll try.

    Quiet night last night.  I'm pretty tired, so curled up and watched some tv.  I've been watching the old Anne of Green Gables movies, since DH is out of town still and refuses to watch them with me.  I love them, though!

    I'm going to try to make it to the gym tonight.  Also start organizing the flat for our move next week.  I can't wait until DH is home on Friday to help out with some of this stuff.

  • So far I'm doing fantastic today! 

    Last night we went to our friends to watch this weeks episode of The Walking Dead.  That is always fun.  After we came home I was still folding blankets and sheets for baby so I got to bed pretty late.  I figured out how to fold a fitted sheet so I'm happy!  Today will be baby clothes wash day and figuring out what clothes I still need to buy.

    I slept pretty well last night but did end up with a zombie apocalypse dream because of our late night tv viewing.  I was up to pee 2-3 times but I feel good this morning and slept in until just before 8am which was pretty nice.

    Today I'm hoping to get to the gym, go to Sears to buy a few baby things, get to the pet store and other various odds and ends that I need to take care of.  I also have my dental cleaning.   I really hate cleanings but my hygenist is really gentle and I've been going to her for years.  Hopefully since I'm pregnant (and apparently our gums are more sensitive) she'll go easier on me.

    Have a great day.

  • Good morning!

    Nothing much to report here; we had a quiet night last night.  The boss is still out and tonight I am playing pub quiz.  Hopefully, we'll do better than we did last week.

  • raynes, my work is like that with GChat. It's been on for about three weeks now, but I expect it to go at any time.

    Morning, all. I'm back at work after a three-day weekend. I am bummed to be back--I really need to get my job search into gear! 

    Today just a bunch of actual writing to do (!), maybe a few fire drills. Then it's the gym, a light dinner and some sleep.

    Hope everyone has a great day!

  • Morning ladies.

    I was in bed pretty early lastnight. By the time I left work, I noticed a scratchy throat so yeah, I think I am getting sick again.  The weather this year is not helping. It's supposed to be close to 60 on Thursday. 

    Tonight or tomorrow night (I need to figure out which), I need to go visit my gram. Today is her 91st birthday.  She suffers from dementia and lives in a home. I don't get there much because I do not like to bring the boys there.  So if I can, I would like to drop the boys off at home, and go visit her quickly this evening.

    Thats about it for me. Have a great day ladies.

  • Morning! 

    Last night was a little crazy. I got a call from my sister at 3 yesterday afternoon that she was gonna have to be in town today for work. She was going to have to drive down last night and would be at my house by close to 7. So I raced home from work and cleaned up the house a bit. It wasn't terrible but also wasn't ready for an overnight guest. (When I do laundry I fold the clothes in the guest room and the clothes don't always get put away right away.) So she got to my house shortly after 7 and I had finished everything by then. We then proceeded to stay up entirely too late last night talking. Oh well. It was a good time and quite unexpected. Today I'll grab lunch with my brother and sister, but otherwise it should be a pretty normal day.

    Tonight I don't have much going on. My house is in good shape so I'm hoping to get in a workout and relax. Have a great day!  

  • Good morning, ladies.

    I heard the Nest and Bump are going to the Knot format for the message boards.  There will be some heads exploding over that, for sure.

    I can knot/nest at work, and FB, but no GChat or gmail, yahoo mail, etc.  I do like the FB board, but I don't like that everyone can't access it all the time.

    Lots of work to do today - I'd better get to it.

    Have a great day, everyone!

  • Good morning. I got up earlier than usually today but then fell asleep again for a few minutes. Thankfully I have an alarm to remind me to go to work and it invaded my dream in the form of a flat tire.

    Yesterday I took off from studying so today I need to really hit the books hard. I haven't really looked at one of the exam questions I have so I need to get started.

  • Good morning!

    Oy, I hope Darian's not going through another sleep regression but he was up 5 times last night. We're going for our last swimming class today. I think I'll sign up for mom & baby yoga next session.

    I think the local boards are already on the new format?  The other day when TN/TB were down (Friday?) they were "doing things".

    I agree about the FB board.  It's definitely fun, but not so awesome that people can't always get on.

  • Good morning!

    Last night was good for a weeknight. I ran a few errands after work, got in a good workout on the treadmill, made a grilled cheese and tomato soup for dinner, took a bath, and still had a little time for ST. :)

    It's gorgeous here today, it's supposed to be in the upper 60's and sunny. I wish I wasn't stuck inside all day! I'm hoping to get home in time for a walk outside tonight.

  • I agree about the FB group. I can access it but I still want to talk to everyone so I'll just check both.

    Last night wasn't anything too exciting, school, dinner and bed. I can't wait for this semester to be over.

    J finished paiting the basement so I think we will be picking out carpet for that sometime this week. The only thing left down there is the bathroom/laundry room. It will be so nice to have all that done. The last thing left on the house is a backyard. I can't wait to have grass and not mud/ice rink.

    Have a good day ladies!

    I've been watching the old Anne of Green Gables movies, since DH is out of town still and refuses to watch them with me.  I love them, though!

    Yes  Love these too!

    I've never watched those but I cried so hard when reading the books.

    That's pretty much what our yard looks like, too. Last year we got rid of crab grass and other garbage. Now all those patches are just dirt and mud. DH wants to spend a fortune on having the yard completely torn up and replanted. Ummm...we have 3 dogs. There's no point to that. I'm pretty sure it's going to be a disaster until we cut back on the animal situation, which won't be for a while.

    We thankfully have been getting some good sleep nights, other than DH snoring, so I feel so much better. It's nice to not be a walking zombie. I just hope it's not a fluke and continues. (I feel like I wrote this yesterday, but I'm still so glad)

    Tonight is finding out what MTV has in store for teen mom type things, and I hear the new Fox lineup is funny, so I'll try to catch that. I also started Hunger Games last night and have a cute swirl hat to finish for Jackson for St. Patty's Day.

  • I prefere TN over the FB group. I have a hard time keeping up with the facebook group and reading everything. It takes me forever to figure out what I haven't read and what I have read. I think I will be sticking to posting here.

    Last night was crazy busy and I don't see any end in sight this week. Hopefully next week will be a tad mor calm. Jordan has his reading 9 weeks test today and I am super nervous for him. He didnt do to hot on the study guide so we studied way longer than I planned to last night.

    tonight will be like last night. Running around getting as much done as possible and studying for 9 weeks test.

  • Afternoon!  I can't access The Nest or Facebook at work, so I am still a nighttime Nestie and I just check both.  I can check FB more easily once in awhile at school from my phone though, so that is nice.

    My day was great!  It was in-service, so I got to sleep in until 6:20, then we had meetings all day, but at least they were interesting/useful meetings.  Then I went for a nice long walk with a friend before coming home.  Now I have spagetti sauce on for dinner and am watching Once Upon A Time. 

    Tomorrow and Friday I have a sub and I have meetings all day that I need to facilitate.  And then next week I am out Tuesday afternoon, Wednesday, and Friday.  I don't teach anymore...I just write sub plans and facilitate meetings...blah.
