It's Monday...

Welcome to Monday everyone.

I am watching one of Hannah's friends for a few hours this morning. It should be interested to have two crazy 18/19 month olds here. :) At least they get along well.

I have an appointment with an ENT doc this afternoon and a hearing test. I have been having random spells of ear ringing and dizziness that they want to check out. I'm not looking forward to a hearing test.

Re: It's Monday...

  • How was everyone's weekend? We didn't do much. DH parked his butt on the couch for almost all of Saturday evening and all day Sunday. Ahhh, it's football season. :)

  • I wrote a pretty long post and it was deleted so... Good morning, good luck at your appointment HM! Hope the kiddos don't run you crazy:-)

  • I went riding with DH on Saturday to Grand Haven and Holland. It was nice. Yesterday I rode my motorcycle on the highway for the first time - to church. 

    Don't sweat the hearing test - I had to go to the ENT when I was having dizziness and ear pain for a couple of months. The test was a piece of cake. They never did figure out what was wrong, though :-( They think I must have injured my eardrum when I fell asleep on a flight and it just took time to heal. 

  • Morning all.  Weekend was pretty boring.  DH worked Saturday until about 4:00, so it was me and babyWop all day.  We just hung out and played all day.  Sunday was church and more hanging out and playing.  Pretty boring. My brother is back in town from being deployed for the Navy for a year.  There were loose plans to drive to the airport to meet him, but with DH working, I wasn't about to load up babyWop and go to the airport if I didn't have to.  I'm sure my family will side-eye me for not going, but oh well.

  • Morning all.

    We are all moved out. :(

    My parents place is overflowing with stuff. DH hasn't slept much since we've been here. We are sleeping in the basement and he can hear everyone/anyone walking above us. So we have to try and figure that one out. That and the bathroom situation. 1.5 baths for 5 people. The main bath isn't that big and only made smaller by the amount of things all over the place. So it needs a makeover so it is functional and not decorative.

    Dh went into the office last night and when he drove home he drove to our house by habit. He said he has to sit in the driveway for a few minutes before he could drive to the correct house.  

  • So get this. Company X has a position for a Law Office coordinator. I apply, and get a letter saying they weren't interviewing any other candidates. Fast forward to this morning and I see the position is reposted. So I call to see what's up. HR tells me that they aren't considering candidates who have completed their law degree. Apparently there has been a lot of them

    What the hell?  I'm sick of this. I went down the wrong career path or something...

  • My weekend was ok. Fri night just stayed home and did nothing. Saturday I ran some errands and went to a friend's house for dinner and made some cds for my cousin. I was ready to throw the laptop out the window trying to create playlists on itunes and trying to figure out how to burn them to a cd. Finally figured it out - dumb me!  Sunday I did laundry and cleaned, took a nap, made some phone calls, and watched the MTV awards again. I am sick of seeing it on every night now. This last week has been very emotional amongst other things. Mike and I have chosen to end things for right now. And on top of that, I have to figure out how to pay my ticket I got last weekend and pay for tags this month. Blah.

  • I'm sorry you're having a rough time Charity. I do hope things start to work out for you. Be good to yourself.

  • thoughts & prayers for new jobs, strength to get through the trials of life.
  • Our little morning play date went well. The girls are used to playing together so they shared nicely and there were no melt downs!

    Deeder, I hope that you guys are able to get settled in at your parent's quickly and figure out how to make room for all of you.

    BngG, Seriously?! That stinks about that job. It's hard when you need to start somewhere but no one will let you.

  • TW - Hope that you are able to see your brother soon, I'm sure he will understand why you weren't able to be there.

    Charity - Sorry to hear that things are still not going well with you and the H.

  • BnG: Say what!???!!! That is some craziness.

    Charity: Deep Breaths, you'll get through this.

    Well, last night I was able to get our bedroom some what organized and Today our living room looks closer to a living room or at least something you can walk through for the most part. Having a cable again is sort of nice again with the exception I still can't really find anything to watch. Today I've got HGTV on. SS has been enjoying it though switching between the Science channel and Discovery. 

  • It's crazy, right? Not just me? Good. I might have to start looking in Big Rapids or Kalamazoo. I do NOT want to drive an hour to work. It's making me sad.

    Deeder- well I'm glad you have cable (maybe), boo to not having space. Can you guys get a storage unit?

    HM-glad the girls played nicely.

    TW: I'm sure your brother understands. I sure do.

    Wendy- thanks for the thoughts and prayers.

  • I'm fine with everything for now. It needed to be done. We'll see what happens. Who knows.
