I'm gonna make you girls a hump day treat!

Pretty sure we've done this one, but the quotes was good for today. 

Hello ladies! What's going on?

I have to go to the dentist on Thursday. I'm not excited. In fact, I'm rather terrified. So if you all could say some prayers that Thursday morning I'll be calm and actually go to my appointment. :)
I'm also getting my hair cut Thursday morning. I'm debating between getting just a trim, or chopping it all off. Then after my dentist appt. we're headed home to my mom's! I'm so excited! 
Today is my last day of work until Monday! Thank goodness! I don't think I could have taken one more day.

Hope you all have a great day!!

    Morning Gals! It makes me sad too Aggie. I think we all lead what we consider boring lives. Remember when we could discuss invites with over 100 post, haha! Anyways just another day at work for me. It appears that the big bosses from Spain are here. I am hoping they leave me alone and go back to head quarters soon. Yuck!

    JLQ: Happy Friday! Good luck at the dentist. Just keep swimming, just keep swimming!

    This is my sentiments exactly.  I don't really have all that much excitement going on in my life and there's just only so many updates about my stupid leg that you all care about.  And no one wants to hear me complain how work is either super boring/crazy busy.  But I agree with Aggie that it makes me sad even though I know I'm part of the problem.

    jlq - good luck at the dentist!  While it sucks, it will be worth it, I promise!

    Hi degrea and aggie!

    Do any of you girls watch RHONJ?? I think CG was the only one that watched it other than me. I watch a ton of episode last night since H was out of town and he hates that show. OMG! How freaking trashatic. I am not completely caught but that family is such a train wreck! They are all so Italian and live up to the stereo type of being hot headed and stubborn. I love the show because parts of it remind me of my family.

  • I didn't know what the movie was until E said her quote.

    Say crack again.

    J, good luck at the dentist! As for your hair, chop it off! :)

    E, how is your leg feeling? It sucks that you start the C25K and then you had to stop.

    Not much going on here. Dealing with a cranky toddler. I got him up this morning and he was so warm. My mom texted me earlier and said he didn't eat much of anything for breakfast so I'm really hoping it's just his teeth that are bothering him. If he starts acting sick, I'll have to take him to the doctor. And I'm taking him to day care next week, so if he's sick, I can't take him and I'll have to take time off work. Poor kid.

    Question for those who were on the BC pill. Did it mess with your body chemistry at all? TMI, but I just never feel like I'm in the mood at all and H has to practically beg for it. And when I always used to O, I never do anymore. I'm starting to think it has to do with the pill...

    How's that for a conversation starter? ;)

    LOL Kris! The pill can be known to affect that. If it is something that bothers you I would talk to your doctor and try a different type/brand. I have been a few different brands over the years and experience something similar with one of them. I have found even though they all claim to have the same active chemicals that different brands effect me different ways. When my last company switched prescription insurance it seems they switched my BC to whatever generic they had available until I had my doctor request they stop that. Different brands effected me different ways. If you do switch and still have the problems maybe switch the style of BC like a try a shot or IUD or one of the others. Good Luck!

    O and another thought; not sure if this is valid one. You had a kid and I am guessing that changes hormones and a bunch of other stuff. Maybe that could be it?

  • Yes, the pill totally diminished my sex drive.

    I've been off and tracking my cycles with temping since February.  Holy wonderful.  Not the condoms, but my overall feeling about sex has drastically improved.

    I know entirely too much about pills, tracking cycles, ovulation, periods, etc...  What do you wanna know??  :-)

  • Having a kid definelty affected my desire for sex. Once my cycle returned I only wanted it around o time and then I wanted to bad.  Now that we're pg again it was low but second trimester sexiness is coming back!! In case anyone cared...not sure why I felt the need to share but there ya go. I can't speak about birth control because I've never taken it. 
  • Degrea - No, I never got into any of the Real Housewives shows.  For some reason they never really appealed to me even though I love some trashy TV.

    Kris - it hurts still but thanks for asking :)  I have another appointment next Tuesday but at least this time it's with an Orthopedic who specializes in sports medicine.  So I'm hopefully he'll be infinitely more helpful than my last doctor.

    Also, my drive was next to nothing when I was on BCP.  So it's definitely not uncommon but not exactly a great side effect either.

     

    Is anyone watching Big Brother?!?

    E: I don't watch Big Bother! I only watch NJ out of all the RW shows. I saw that the RH Orange County is having or had its 100 episode. That seems crazy to me.

  • I had zero sex drive when I was on the pill. That's part of the reason I stopped taking it. 

    Thanks for all your well wishes on the dentist tomorrow!
    I think I am going to shop my hair. We'll see!
    I also never have much to say, and I can't Nest at work since we don't have computers or down time. haha. So normally when I'm on it's late in the day, and no one is around then.
