I'm on the train on my way downtown. Its's H and I's 8th anniversary- that makes me feel old! We are going out to dinner downtown tonight. I think at an Indian restaurant per my request. (So weird- I haven't had Indian food in like 5 years but it's what I want tonight!)
Hoping today goes by faster than yesterday. I was so bored at work, and the hours were creeping by.

Happy anniversary glb30 ! Our 5th anniversary was Friday!
I just had to leave work to go get 2nd breakfast. DS woke up at 5 and wanted to eat breakfast right then, which is odd for him. I ate with him and it was way to early for me to think cereal and toast would last me until my normal mid-morning snack. Sausage mcmuffin and a burrito down the hatch. I'm either sick or starving these days with almost no in between.
Didn't pack a lunch today so I've got to decide what I want later.
I'm new to the group so curious. Has there been a GTKY about where we're all from? I'm curious where we all are on the map, but don't want to come across as too much since I'm one of the newest here. Just genuinely curious what regions we all come from. If it's been discussed, feel free to direct me there.
FX renegadewhit, My mom has been trying to sell her house, I know it can be horrible waiting for houses to sell.
I had several shitty dreams last night that are still annoying me this morning. I also tried to live stream the equestrian jumping at the Olympics, but my backass tv company doesn't show up on the list, even though I get the channels.
I couldn't sleep last night and now there are seemingly a million things to get done this week at work, all while I have a short week because of moving. One problem in particular is that I'm dealing with one particular nightmare order that I put literally hours upon hours of work into something months ago, that should have avoided the current headache, that's probably now going to take hours to correct. It's incredibly frustrating. On top of everything else going on in my life right now, I went and cried in the bathroom. I look like crap now, but at least feel a little better. I'm just ready for this week to be over.
Ugh. Sorry for the giant downer post. In happier news, I'm getting Jimmy John's for lunch and plan on ordering one of those giant cookies to improve my day.

Speaking of Jimmy John's, I REALLY want an Italian sub from Firehouse subs. But am still a little freaked out over the whole deli meat thing. But subs there are steamed. Someone tell me it's okay to have that sub!
jillywilly I hope the giant cookie improves your day! One of the only downsides to our new house is that Jimmy Johns no longer delivers. Those cookies are amazing.
I bought a portabello mushroom "pizza" at the store today in anticipation of wanting it for lunch today, but now the thought of it makes me gag. I'm going to eat DS's chicken nuggets instead.
I have to go to school to open the library for two hours tonight. I have no idea how I am going to be perky and welcoming for that long.

Get the sub! I did the no lunch meat thing last pregnancy. I told H that during that pregnancy, and since, I have seen dozens of stories about listeria on produce, zero on lunch meat. All I wanted for nine damn months was a sandwich. I had at least two delivered to me at the hospital after I delivered DS. This pregnancy, I'm eating lunch meat.

It's on USA here. I've been watching it all morning. Do you ride? Eventing used to be my sport so I've made an effort to watch as much as possible!
Now I really NEED a sub! We moved to a really small town a few months ago. We don't have great food options. The best sub in town would probably be from Subway so I think I will pass.
I really want Chipotle but the closest one is an hour away! Bahhh!!
ladytiffany24 I didn't eat lunch meat last pregnancy and it is what I missed the most. I had DH go get me a huuuuge cold cut from an italian sub shop while I was still in the hospital. This time around, I am eating a sandwich if I want a sandwich.

It's worse to have lettuce and veggies it seems now a days than it is for lunch meat. I haven't seen anything about lunch meat so long.
ETA also as long as it isn't a shit hole of a place I'm sure it's fine

I'm having mashed potatoes again. I left out the sour cream today and paired them with a big salad with tomatoes from our garden. Lunch was awesome today!
I'm eating leftover curry from dinner last night. I don't know why I didn't heat the whole thing up. have to walk back over to the break room because I'm still hungry....

I showed hunter jumper up until high school and I miss it so much! My cousin rides in college and I live vicariously through her
Fun! I miss it, too. I haven't competed since my early twenties and I sold my last horse when I found out I was pregnant with DS. I'd like to get back into it again some day - but probably at a lower level, since I'm old and breakable now.
I pulled out my big ass pregnancy pillow. I have no regrets.
I was JUST thinking about mine this morning! Last pregnancy, we had a queen bed and DH said the pillow was like adding another person to the bed and we spent all night pulling sheets off of each other. I hope it is better with a king this time. I have a snoogle, but am considering switching to one that is U-shaped (so two sides of goodness). Does anyone have a favorite?
RE: sandwiches, I've eaten deli sandwiches through 2 pregnancies with no issues. I don't like my subs heated, either. My new Drs office gave us a sheet on things to avoid and the top thing on it was about listeria and avoid deli meat unless heated to steaming. DH got all worried since I ate so many sandwiches during my other pregnancies. I had to remind him that ice cream had a listeria scare more recently than any meat.

Really? I've got four channels and none of them are showing the equestrian stuff. It's all tennis and swimming.
I did some reining classes in college but mostly I just ride for fun (western). I do some cattle work when we need it-- but not for a while. I've also tried my hand at team roping, to find I'm not very good.
Had I stayed in college I would have had a more intensive English riding class, I did some but I was really interested in learning more. It was a lot of fun, I'm impressed by anyone that can do all that stuff in those little bitty saddles.
I just had a body pillow I used last pregnancy, and that worked for me. I could kind of manipulate it how I needed for support as my belly grew, and hips/back became more painful.
