Its friday

[WineNChocolate]

Hey ladies,

Its Friday..I am exhausted but I have house guests. Did I mention the do just pooped in my house last night. DH cleaned it up but didn't want to tell them. (His father and step mom) I was like excuse me so they won't watch her closer. Then I hear oh we will get the tarp out. They put a huge blue tarp for the dog to shit and piss on in case they don't get home in time or when she may have to Go and they don't know. Jesus give me strength. There is a shit/pee ridden tarp on my floor that smells like shit and pee.

I am trying to keep my mouth shut. My dh wants to handle it...okay we will play it your way. But if that dog pisses or shits somewhere that is off limits, like anywhere else in my house. God help you.

So on a lighter note... I saw this and laughed.

Omg @wine I cannot believe that! I have a dog and that would disgust me so much! Our dog goes outside but we do have friends who have pee pads for their dogs but not a whole TARP.

I just drank the limeondex drink for the GCT. I think I'm going to fail mostly because I thought it was delicious and that must say something about how my body reacts to sugar.

Thinking good thoughts for fikafairy67 today.

[legalbeagle]

Also for those of you who have taken the GCT and gotten results, how long did it take to get back? I forget from DS.

Happy Friday! 

WineNChocolate, that's so odd (& gross).  Disrespectful to not ask beforehand if the dog can come, but shouldn't it be potty trained? Or is it a puppy? I'm not a pet lover so no clue.

I took the test at 9 am and got a call by 3 pm that same day. GL!

WineNChocolate, NOPE to the tarp. That would have lost my goodwill right there and I would have told them to take the dog outside. I could not do something covered in dog poop or pee in my house.



Do they just let the dog go to the bathroom inside of their house on this tarp? I'm dying.

[kaydee0402]

legalbeagle, maybe a week? I don't remember. All I know is that I got the results the day before Thanksgiving while at my mom's house and I immediately dived into a plate of Christmas cookies in celebration.

[legalbeagle]

Thanks littlelion!

Also this is the most TCF time I've had all week and of course it is Friday and slow.

What are people up to this weekend?

[kaydee0402]

It's gorgeous today and isn't supposed to get out of the 70's. I'm going to take DS to the park for a bit after school. We haven't been all summer because it's been so darn hot. I also opened the windows and turned off the a/c before I went to work so the house can air out. I'm loving this weather!

[lola]

legalbeagle They told me about a week. But they only call if I fail. I had to do the 1 hour and 2 hour at once, so if I fail, there's no retaking the test for me. I'll be immediately diagnosed.

WineNChocolate Wait, so they travel with a tarp specifically for the dog to go to the bathroom on? Inside? What!? This is appalling.

I'm going to Denver to visit a friend for a girls weekend! We're going to do yoga, get pedicures, go antique shopping and get her settled in her new house. Oh, and she has a new (well-trained!) puppy that I cannot wait to meet!

[legalbeagle]

Thanks Lola!

Good luck to you too crimpgirl! Also I spoke too early. The drink was delicious but now I'm feeling lightheaded. 16 minutes to go! I think I need an egg sandwich after this for the protein.

[WineNChocolate]

They use the tarp for the dog to go on. I am assuming they let her out but..that might be a stretch! I am in awe..DH is asking me to be quiet...and I am sitting her wondering what universe I live in where your dog shitting on a tarp in my house is ok.

[Deleted]

WineNChocolate, that is so gross! I can't believe they would think that's acceptable to do in someone else's house! I would not have been as diplomatic as you are being.

legalbeagle, I had my results by the next morning on my online results thingy and the doc emailed me the "official" reading of the results the day after that.

I'm so glad it's Friday. I'm trying to get going on my sub plans for when I'm out on leave and every time I get started on them something comes up and I get interrupted. I'm thinking about taking stuff home over the weekend and shutting myself in the office and working until I get one of my 2 grade levels done. At least if I do it at home I can work in my pjs.

[Winnifred]

WineNChocolate, that situation would drive me crazy!!! When are they leaving? Do they not crate the dog when everyone is gone? My house would have been a disaster if we didn't crate our dog when she was a puppy. If she's not moving around, there's like 0% chance she'll go to the bathroom unless it's uncontrollable diarrhea... Also the 2nd meme is completely accurate... Friday's are exciting because of the weekend, but it's just not the same, and I don't think it ever will be.

legalbeagle, I was able to see my results online the same day (had the test done around 11:30AM). GL to you!

kaydee0402, YES, I'm loving it as well! I hear there's rain and more humidity heading our way but I'm still in denial. This week has been fabulous!!

lola, sounds like so much fun, have a good time! I love puppies...

I'm so glad it's Friday but it's a bummer having to work a full day, I'm still trying to get used to it. And I'm still sore in random places (legs/back), I think I'm going to skip working out tonight in hopes that I just need some rest...

And I have to get my bangs trimmed early tomorrow morning and I'm totally bummed about it!! I love my weekend morning relaxation time... My stylist is going on maternity leave and everyone else totally f's up my bangs/hair. Is a side swept bang really that hard to do?!?

End rant.

[hmr11913]

WineNChocolate, what the FUCK! A tarp?!?!?! I am already in a bitchy mood today after getting my GD results - so I would totally TP them for you. Firstly, I'd be so embarrassed if my dog shit in someone elses house, let alone bring a tarp (that I'm assuming was already used)..... yuck!

[requiressnacks]

legalbeagle, I got my results in 3 business days. I was at a shitty Quest Diagnostics lab, so no where fancy.

[requiressnacks]

WineNChocolate, OMG to the dog and the tarp.

[requiressnacks]

Hi Ladies! Happy Friday!

I'm going to happy hour tonight with some girlfriends. While I am sad I can't drink, I figure in a couple months getting out for a casual happy hour will get exponentially more difficult. So, I'm trying to DO ALL THE THINGS now.

[legalbeagle]

Celebrating the end of GCT with eggplant parm sandwich and a pastry from my favorite Japanese bakery. Thanks for all the input on timing. My office said today/tomorrow (though tomorrow is Sat) and latest Monday. I don't have high hopes.

[mrswillie]

legalbeagle my OB told me they call if there's an issue. No call means no issue. I had it done last Friday between 11 and 12 and had the results online on Tuesday.

[lola]

requiressnacks, I've been doing this and just asking bartenders to make me mocktails. It's totally hit or miss, but it's a fun experiment at least!

crimpgirl, I feel the same way about boots! Best footwear ever. Unfortunately we're still in the 90s in Texas. Our fall is usually in late November or later.

legalbeagle, That sounds delicious! I couldn't decide between sweet and savory so I got an egg dish with queso and a side of chocolate chip pancakes.

@cahistoryteacher, Sometimes I just need to get a few hours of work done without anyone interrupting me. I don't like doing it, but it's worth it for my sanity.

hmr11913, I would be horrified too! I once had a friend bring her dog over and not pay attention to him, and he proceeded to knock down our christmas tree (thankfully the decorative one and not the one with the special ornaments) and break all of the ornaments. She was only slightly embarrassed, whereas I would've offered up almost anything in repayment if the roles had been reversed. After she left, I was so relieved... until I went upstairs and found that he had also crapped on our upstairs landing. It was awful.

WineNChocolate, No. Just no.

[emilie]

WineNChocolate OMG. so rude. is the dog at least a nice dog? and why not just crate him/her?

[mrswillie]

WineNChocolate

[Becca]

WineNChocolate, ugh, so gross. I can understand using a disposable pad if it was an old, sick dog, or a young puppy, but don't travel with it then. I wouldn't keep my mouth shut, but I've learned my mouth gets me in trouble often, lol.

requiressnacks, mocktails all the way. Some I've had are bad, but most have been pretty good.

crimpgirl, I miss my boots too. I'm afraid by the time it is cool enough to wear them I won't be able to bend over far enough to zip them up.

This weekend is going to be busy. We have a 30th birthday party tonight, but it doesn't start until 9 PM, not sure if I'm going to make it. DH may be going solo. Tomorrow I'm going to a twins yard sale with my mom while DH and my dad finish putting together all the nursery furniture. We then have our maternity photos tomorrow night. I'm thankful DH is going to the Pats game Sunday so I can sit at home in my PJs and get all my school work done without him around. Just thinking about everything we have going on is making me tired.

[requiressnacks]

Becca, a party that starts at 9 would be a struggle for me! GL!!!

[legalbeagle]

I passed! 122. Hooray! Also, no anemia.

Hoping for good results for everyone still waiting...

[emilie]

It's 85 degrees here and I am wearing knee high boots. Mainly to cover up my old lady compression socks and because they are comfortable. I work in an air conditioned office all day, so whatever

[littlelion]

My dinner was an ice cream sundae. At 3:30 pm.

I think I passed the glucose test (112 mg), but I'm anemic. Same thing happened last pregnancy.

Random...anyone have a linea nigra show up yet? I can't remember when mine appeared last time, but nothing here yet .

Still no glucose test results here, but also anemic!

I definitely have a linea nigra - last night DH asked me why I have "a line down the middle"

[littlelion]

I don't think my dr prescribed the slow release iron pill. Last night I woke up feeling sick to my stomach and ended throwing up. And I didn't eat dinner so the experience was extra horrible. Dh blamed my empty stomach. I did feel better after eating something. But still giving my pharmacist a call.
