I like fall but don't look forward to it. Only cause winter follows it. I'd love it if winter wasn't a thing and we went right from fall to spring. I hate the cold, snow, ice, stomach virus season (big huge phobia of mine)... HATE winter and sad it ruins my excitement for fall lol
I am very very nervous for cold and flu season. I am determined not to take medicine of any kind during this pregnancy and I don't want to break that. I will be using hand sanitizer every time someone comes into my office and purell wiping my desk down.

I'm annoyed right now. I'm at a meeting and half the people are wearing our uniform and half are wearing regular clothes. I wish I was one of the people in regular clothes I do have LLR leggings and a classic T for the ride home but not for a work training.

DD is the flower girl in DH's cousins' wedding in October. She just texted me asking if we would mind if they put a highchair in between our place settings for the reception... I know there is usually plenty of room at reception tables, but give the kid (and her parents) their own space!
This is more of a FFFC, but I'll forget by tomorrow. I'm getting jealous that more people have been able to get in and have ultrasounds done. I can't even get in to get blood drawn to confirm pregnancy. With the second pregnancy I had to go to a free clinic so they could confirm by a pee test that I was pregnant and could turn documentation into the military. I really hate waiting....
I like going to baby showers but not bridal showers. I had neither because I don't like being the center of attention. Oh and my husband and I eloped, so it would've been weird to have a bridal shower.
I like real pumpkin stuff with real pumpkin. But I think Pumpkin Spice Lattes and most Starbucks drinks are way over-rated. Give me a black dark roast and I'm happy.

There's a new hire here that annoys the shit out of me. First of all he stinks so bad because he's a chain smoker. And then he has to ask the same question 500 times and it's always something really simple. I just went full on bitch mode on him. I kind of feel bad....but not really.

I didn't even think about no cold medicine etc! my last pregnancy was feb-October so I was spared. Luckily, I should be working from home fulltime come oct so that helps me. It's what the hubs and son bring in the house I'll have to worry about. Ick!
I didn't want a wedding or baby shower either (because of my anxiety) but my sister told me that it wasn't really about me--people were excited and happy for my life events and wanted to share in that. And free presents (especially all the baby gear) is a nice bonus. I drank before my co-ed wedding shower (to take some of the pressure off) and my anxiety eased a bit for my baby shower. I got there first so as people trickled in, I was more comfortable. Happy I had both because both were wonderful gettogethers. And I do love seeing family I wouldn't normally see under happy circumstances, rather than sad ones (funerals).

For my bridal shower I had DH show up at present opening time. I don't like being the center of attention and it made it a million times better with him sitting next to me because he's goofy and people pay attention to him. We will do the same thing for our baby shower.
I like baby showers and plan on having one or two. But I HATE baby shower/bridal shower games. There were no games at my bridal shower.
I dislike the games too. My sister wanted some activities for her baby shower so we did Price is Right and Bingo style games with prizes and that wasn't too bad and people seemed pretty into it (even the men).
I have a UO... I like commuting to work and I don't mind traffic. I love me some alone time with either the radio or an audio book. I especially like it in the afternoon after a shitty day at work-- I don't have to immediately pick up my kid and it gives me time to separate work and home.
I should note that I only go in to the office 3 days a week (work from home the other two) and I work atypical office hours of 6-2:30 so I usually miss rush hour on both ends. Our office also just moved and cut my commute down by 20 min in the AM and 30 min in the PM, so that is a major plus.
Before I started working from home. A 25 mile commute took an hour each way. SUCH A WASTE OF TIME. I would much rather use that time to get work done, go to the gym, or hang out with my kid.
UO - I don't really care for Fall or look forward to it. It's cold, muddy and gross 90% of the time and pretty only about 10% of the time. I seem to get sick *every* single fall. I also hate being cold and the pretty leaves changing doesn't last as long as it should to be enjoyed. Fall basically sucks.
I love fall in Texas because it means it is not 100 billion degrees anymore! I enjoy hanging out in shorts in the 70s. I LOVE FALL CANDLES

I could not have said this better!! :heart: fall but DNW winter. Haha

Yess!! Except not black. But for real I almost barfed the first time I tried the PSL from Starbucks.
At my old OB's office, I called to tell them I was pregnant and got right in for a blood test. Then they scheduled my first U/S for around 7 weeks. We've since moved and my new OB has me coming in for a "confirmation of pregnancy appointment" at 6 weeks and I have no info on further appointments or U/Ss yet. I'm...not thrilled...with this practice so far. It came highly recommended by my local FB group when I crowdsourced rec's when we moved.
Yeah instead of a nap on our hour lunch I might be going to a store. Also it looks like the buffet they set up is all lunch meat for make your own sandwiches
