Wednesday Randoms Go Here

[heybulldog56]

Here I am, at work... without children.  I know I shouldn't complain but I am so tired and having nothing to do does not help. And, to make matters worse, they haven't unblocked Netflix or Hulu yet. But it's ok because I have decided to go to Chipotle again today. It just opened down the street, gotta help them out, right? 

[ellabee]

I have a work function that lasts until 9pm tonight, which means I won't get back home until 10 at the earliest. I'm not sure how I'm going to make it through the whole day. Last night I fell asleep at 8:30.

At least it's hump day?

I still have to come up with a gift for DH for father's day and our anniversary... I'm probably going to have to count on my amazon prime 2 day shipping because I'm a procrastinator lol.

[peaseblossom55]

I am so tired I was up a bit later than normal just relaxing with H and celebrating 2 years. He got me cake and roses. He also got me tickets to see The Front Page on Broadway with Nathan Lane it's in September. I'm so excited!!!

Luckily the nausea isn't too bad today. I just feel emotionally a mess right now. Work is not helping either.

heybulldog56, how many more days do you have to show up with no kids? That just seems odd. Enjoy your Chipotle! That sounds amazing.

ellabee, that sounds like a crazy long day. I get frustrated any time I have to commit to anything after work these days because I'm so worn out that I just want to relax when I get home. I even bailed on a happy hour tomorrow because I knew I wouldn't have the energy. Granted it's not as much fun without being able to drink, but it would have been nice to see friends I haven't seen in awhile.

[heybulldog56]

ellabee,thanks for mentioning your anniversary. It reminded me of mine.... which is today. Thank goodness DH was gone when I got up this morning because that would have been awkward. My memory gets worse and worse each day.

Happy anniversary!

I swear, I used to be sharp as a tack. Like literally meticulous attention to detail in both work and personal stuff. Then I got pregnant with DD and my brain vacated the building. After pregnancy brain, baby brain set it.

I'm wondering whether it'll ever come back to me or if I'll just be forgetful for the rest of my life.

After 4 kids I can tell you this is just the new normal now.

Bummer lol. I suspected as much. Farewell old brain. We had a good run.

[heybulldog56]

summergirl1211, it is odd. And technically, not exactly an official county policy. Pretty sure the county would not be 'ok' with it. But every year our AP tells the parents not to send the 8th graders back after their promotion ceremony. The other grades are here and running a normal schedule but the the 8th grade teachers are literally just sitting around. We've gotta keep reporting until next Tuesday.

[ashtog]

heybulldog56 happy anniversary!

For Father's Day the kids will give him his gifts they made at school, and I'll make him breakfast and let him sleep in, then we do family things

[peaseblossom55]

heybulldog56, Happy anniversary!

[peaseblossom55]

And I'm annoyed that I am no longer a silver reg.

[ashtog]

heybulldog56 so after their ceremony they just start early summer? But 6 and 7 still have to hang around doing school work like chumps for the next few weeks? That's so weird

[heybulldog56]

peaseblossom55, yeah I am confused. I figured a change was in the works but it happened overnight. Literally. Is there a doc explaining the new rankings anywhere?

Yup.  Although, to be honest, they aren't doing work. They are helping all the adults take down posters, pack up books, etc. I just enlisted three 7th graders to take all my library books to the book closet. They are pretty must being used as "helpers" in the AM and in the PM they've been watching movies. School should have ended yesterday but because of the snow days we are in until next week. It's most certainly a waste of time for everyone.

[vlagroupie]

I've been blaming all mistakes at work etc on pregnancy brain, it is real.
At home with my kid today, she's had a bit of a fever and technically shouldn't go to DC. And I didn't really want to go to work. So just sitting here relaxing on the couch while iPad and peppa parent today.

I'm confused too. I don't see anything either. Oh well, I just need to post more.

[ashtog]

heybulldog56 I remember that from when I was in school too for the last few days lol.

[peaseblossom55]

In an effort to reclaim my silver status.
Maternity underwear and panty hose are amazing, so much more comfortable.
I am so itchy, everywhere my stomach my back my legs.

[geekmama]

Hi all! This week I've been a lot more sick than previously and all I want to do is curl up under a blanket and watch TV. I'm unfortunately the kind of person who just wants to be left alone when they're not feeling well, but DS must be touching me at all times. Ugh.

Seriously considering maternity underwear this time around. 

[ashtog]

peaseblossom55 like for you trying to reclaim your status! I'm mobile so I didn't even notice a change lol.

geekmama I'm the same when I feel gross, hope the nausea doesn't linger today.

I didn't last time, but I got them last week.   So comfortable.

[ashtog]

Thankfully (or not thankfully) Im not as nauseated this week as previously, which of course has me freaking out more than a little. But I'm trying to take it as a blessing that I don't feel like puking all day every day like I did the first few weeks

[ashtog]

Plus one for wearing maternity underwear.

[ashtog]

Have you guys bought anything for this lo yet? Almost everything of DS's was bought for Sawyer, but I started buying him a few things just for him around 9w online as a sign of hope. I think I might do some online shopping today

[judyblume14]

heybulldog56, what will you get at Chipotle? Inquiring minds need to know.

My go to is a burrito bol with no rice, carnitas, fajita veggies, pinto beans, corn and mild salsa, lettuce guac and cheese.

I'm "pewter" now. Lol.

Work is still crazy busy and I'm still crazy tired. I might make it to the gym after work today for the first time in 2 weeks. I will be a very sad panda if not. Only going to the gym on the weekends does not work for me.

I just filled out a shit ton of paper work for my first appointment tomorrow. My OBGYN practice changed management so everyone is a new patient. Yay!

[ashtog]

judyblume14 now I want Mexican food! That sounds soooo good!

[peaseblossom55]

Not buying anything yet, I don't know if I will for a few more months yet. H & I found a nice area rug on sale for the nursery, we considered buying it, then H realized it wouldn't fit in his car. We found a better one we liked online anyway with free shipping we will buy at some point.

[heybulldog56]

ashtog,I havent bought anything. I am waiting to hear the heartbeat again today (hopefully) and then I may buy a few newborn diapers.

judyblume14, I am absolutely getting Chipotle. They open at 11. I am sitting here counting down.
