It's so quiet, and as usual, I am procrastinating at getting any work done. Does anyone have anything to share? AW's? Vents? Randoms?
Re: Thursday Thoughts?
I had a brownie batter doughnut at Dunkin Donuts yesterday. It was SO good. It's taking everything in my power not to go buy one right now.
Winter needs to stop.
Um, that's all I have.
Meghan--isn't that donut to die for?? I'm still thinking about the one I had 2 weeks ago. YUM.
hmm....my thoughts for the day....I agree with you that winter needs to exit immediately. I'm going to DC the week after next to supervise a student trip there and I'm tired just thinking about going, going, going all day. I was supposed to get some bloodwork done (just an annual thing for my blood pressure) back in, oh...September, and I can't remember at this point if I actually did it, or if I just lost the RX to get it done. I called my dr's office and left a voicemail, I'm embarrassed to have to ask such a silly thing when they call back.
that's all I have for now.

I need to try one of these Donuts! I keep hearing about them!
This weather is making me so tired. I haven't even been able to stay up to watch TV lately (except for the Bachelor). I just want to see one nice day in the forecast!
I'm so tired of colds too. Poor Wes has had one after another. He gets so sad... he'll come up to me and say "nose... urts" and bury his slimey little face into my arm
We have a new salesman starting Monday and I have a bad feeling about our fragile office dynamic after FB stalking him! He looks a little to "frat party" for the four 50+ people who work here. I just have a bad feeling. But it will be nice not to be the "new one" after 3 years or the youngest.
Also, my boss has been gone all week and I have a ton to do but don't want to do anything but take a nap.
Nolan slept. From 8:00pm to 5:50am. I feel awesome!
We're a few weeks away from Brinley's 4th birthday and I feel like the awful 3 year old traits are already starting to disipate. Lately she's been over the top sweet, especially with Nolan. Coaching him on how to do things like coloring or doing puzzles, reading him stories and encouraging him to say new words, even wiping his runny nose.
She's also reading more than 25 sight words. I'm so proud of her and hope this awesomeness goes on forever.
We are still 3 months away from dd's birthday and I'm already getting annoyed yet again this year. It's always around Memorial Day and we have to plan around everybody's schedules. But this year it actually falls on a weekend (a Saturday ) but it is the weekend of Memorial Day. I already knew 1 friend goes away and wouldn't be able to go but found out another is. I really want to have her party on her actual birthday but I fear none of her friends will end up coming! I can't do family party because my parents can't even come up that weekend. And a good friends daughters bday is just a few days from dd's so we always end up being the same weekend and planning around each other.
Ugh! I know I need to just accept it but it ticks me off every year. I really never expected Memorial Day weekend as being an issue!
oh and dd wants her party at this play place thing which I really don't want to do but it's what she wants. I am annoyed that all daycare kids seem to have done their party there this past year so its like the "cool thing" to do.
I thought I had a meeting at 3, so I was kind of just goofing off until everyone got here. I just found out it's actually next Thursday. But, I don't feel like doing much work now.
Noah got a 30/30 on the project portion of his first big project for his gifted class. And he only missed 4 of the questions in that section. He was so proud of himself, and I was proud, too!
I am seriously addicted to getting free books for my kindle from bookbub and pixel of ink. I buy at least one every day. I probably won't be able to read them all in my lifetime!
Seriously! POI is awesome, but I have more books than I know what to do with! The good thing is that I can ditch them a few chapters in if I'm not feeling it and not feel guilty (which I've done a few times).
I understand how you feel. DS1 was born around Labor Day and DS2 was born around Memorial Day....I obviously have holiday babies. But party planning is such a pain in the butt. I'm not even to the lets have a chucky cheese stage of party. Nor do I have daycare friends or preschool friends to invite for the boys...all they get are my cousin's kids...lol
Totally feel for you. Nolan is right around Thanksgiving. To add complications to the matter is hunting season. The weekend before Thankgiving is the start of bear season and the week after Thanksgiving is deer season.
That doesn't sound lame to me. I LOVE my clarisonic. But maybe I'm just the opposite of fun too.
I love mine too. It completes me...haha! Amazing product if you have skin issues. If you don't really need it then may not be all that exciting.
