It's just about 8:45 eastern time. There is no thread started yet. Where is everyone?!
F slept horrible again last night. I have a huge coffee today. There are only three of us in the office today- one left early yesterday before I was able to get out. Another is leaving early today and may not be back. I wanted to run to target at lunch today and may not be able to now.
But Carter's is having a flash sale today so maybe I'll hope from my desk...
rvamama, sorry for the rough night. Lots of coffee to you today! I'm home sick today. I tried to make it to work but finally gave up when I got sick in a church parking lot. I did manage to get the kids to DC ok. I felt horrible because A was soaked when I dropped her off. I'm pretty sure her cup leaked all over her and her seat. She was so upset but I just ran away and let the teacher deal with it. MOTY!
I was posting selfies... Like a boss, before both kids decided they needed my attention. K has also decided that 7:30 is no longer her bedtime. 8:30 is. So yesterday she was awake from 1:30-8:30, which meant she was a cranky overtired mess. MH thinks it's a minor way of acting out and getting extra mommy cuddles, and that I should just go with it for now. I'm trying to just accept a few minor shitty behavior changes because having J around is a huge change for her.
Otherwise, everyone's still alive over here, so I feel moderately successful as a human. I've even managed to do like one chore a day. Just one, don't want to overdue it. Haha.
rvamama, sorry for the rough night! Hope your coffee and retail therapy help you feel better :-)
bekbek, ugghhh, that is the WORST. I hope you're resting and feeling better!
flat0422, poor pup :-(. Sorry you're dealing with that stress & sadness. I hope the steriods DO help, but I hear what you're saying! I can't believe how much it can cost sometimes for pet care.
M miraculously STTN without a peep. I was shocked. She normally sleeps like crap when she's sick. SO took her to his dad's house this morning. She loves hanging out with her Mimi and PopPop, so I'm sure she'll have a good day.
FX she's feeling better tomorrow, as we're going to a AAA baseball game. My work does an annual outing / Happy Hour for members. We have 300+ people coming. Should be fun!
A coworker is buying me lunch as a thank you for helping him with a White Paper. He really doesn't have to, but I won't turn down food
TheTuna15, moderately successful! Love it. You're killin' it with the hot outfits and one chore, seriously. You beat me on most days!! I did finally wash my dishes, though.. WOOO.
flat0422 did the dr tell you that steroids can cause frequent urination?! In humans and animals...when my dog was on it a few years ago same thing- up all night to pee, she had accidents in the house during the day. It's couldn't hold it at all...
Ok, baby puke must have been a fluke. She did whine a few times overnight, but she ate well this morning and was happy. ALSO, this f'ing kitten. She's like, LET ME CLAW YOU AT 3AM! SO FUN! I want to lock her out, but then I'm afraid she'll just bitch at the door all night.
I think I'm alone at work today.. so... that's cool. Quiet. I like it. I actually am going to try and accomplish a good amount of work and then bust out a little early. Swing by the fancy grocery store before heading home. I love living in the forest, but I definitely miss my fancy grocery stores.
TheTuna15, moderately successful! Love it. You're killin' it with the hot outfits and one chore, seriously. You beat me on most days!! I did finally wash my dishes, though.. WOOO.
Haha! Thanks! I literally can't sit still in the mornings, but both kids are moderately chill when they first wake up (for now). So I basically run around like a maniac, and get a bunch of stuff done early. Then I'm useless the rest of the day. I'm also terrified of falling off the algorithm I'm in right now on Fb. Sales and interaction have been good, don't want to change that. But yay for dishes!

I'm going to try to check in a few times today since I'm home. N and I are about to run to the post office and Hobby Lobby and then I need to workout while he naps. Double since I skipped yesterday. I'm down 11lbs since starting my first round of 21 day fix though! Woohoo! Only 1.2lbs from pre preg weight.
rvamama sorry for the rough night! Fx coffee and online retail therapy helps. It's so hard to stay away from those carters sales....
bekbek sorry you're sick! Glad you can rest without the kids for a bit.
TheTuna15 id say 1 chore a day with 2u2 is a success right now! Fx K starts going to bed at a normal time again soon.
flat0422 so sorry about your pup!! It's so hard. Fx the steroids can help. My MIL dog was on steroids for sometime and it helped tremendously. (Their pup went through blood transfusions and basically had puppy AIDS). So I hope they'll help your pup. It's hard when it's so expensive!
malvo glad M slept well. Fx that means she's feeling a bit better.
ladymike enjoy a quiet day at work and your fancy grocery store!!
portuguesemama way to go!! Those are great results! I've been doing a little abs and upper body, but I can't wait until my toe is better and I can really work out!!
A has been eating and pooping like crazy yesterday. She eats so much more than she was. Growth spurt? Who knows. She's finally over everything she had going on. Constipation one week, puke for an entire week, then snotty nose and diarrhea. Phew!!
R walks home after school now even on her moms days, so I've been getting so see her every day which is nice. Tonight is her first night with us since school started Monday though so that's exciting. She really seems to be loving the new school by our house and we're SO happy! Taking her for ice cream after dinner this evening.
@megaugust10, I'm not feeling great but I got to sleep all day. My H picked up the girls from DC and get them supper. I'm hoping by tomorrow I'm back to normal. Thanks for asking!!!

flat0422 - That's a tough one. Can you ask your aunt to confirm? If she is doing the same weekend, then ask your H if he wants to go solo or not at all? I think it's kind to think of them inviting other people, but I'm not sure how many people have a B list for our wedding. I know some people do and then send out a second set of invites as they get people saying they can't come, but if you aren't going, I'm not sure they would invite someone in your place?
