Mondays are dumb

[icedtea]

I need distraction today. My dog plowed into my nose earlier and my heartburn is intense. I'm grumpy and complainy and need to snap out of it.

What is everyone most excited for this week? I'm enjoying the fact that there are now SIX songs out from the Hamilton Mixtape.

I wore slippers to work today. One benefit of being 39 weeks pregnant is that no one tells you no. Also, our lunch delivery today is this super yummy fried chicken place and I'm getting the spicy chicken and mashed potatoes meal.

I'm looking forward to a short work week and hopefully having a baby sometime before next Monday so I don't have to come back to this place until next year.

And my H's 30th birthday is tomorrow!

That's my hope!

Good luck jubilantsquirrel!

I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving and seeing family. We're also telling H's grandma and aunt and uncle so that should be fun.

I made the mistake of telling SIL that we'll find out the gender when the NIPT results come back, hopefully this week. She got so excited about doing some kind of a gender reveal thing with the family this weekend that I couldn't say no, so she's going to plan something.

Morning sickness has officially set in. I forgot those prego pop drop things at home, so I sat through an hour long conference call today with my head down on my desk trying not to throw up. Ugh.

are there any mints in your office? Or Popsicles?

No, but I do have some lemon slices in the fridge.  Lemon water is helping a little bit, and trying to slowly snack on some nuts.

Exciting! Ours came in last week but it's still sitting in my IL's sitting room lol Can't wait to get my hands on it!

My amazing, sweet, supportive, fantastic, (insert more good adjectives here) boss told me on Friday that he may need to leave his position at our organization. It took all I had not to cry in front of him. I don't know what I'll do if he leaves, but I'm honestly considering not coming back to work after a maternity leave if he doesn't stay. I love this job, but 90% of the reason I love it is because I work for someone who is fair and respectful and because we've built a great working relationship together over the past 3 years.

Waaaah I am freakin' out over here!

I'm so over training my CW that's covering me while I'm gone. Each week there's something new thrown my way.  A new report to create from scratch, document the process and then train my CW.  I cannot keep up.  And next week is my scheduled csection, and both weeks are short (3 days).  Yet, I'm expected to do all this work/training plus set up stuff for the new year. News flash: I don't care anymore.

littlelion - I would be checked out too. Not fair of them to throw more stuff at you right when you're leaving.

Sounds like a great Monday! 

I'll miss all the pregnancy perks...like my stretchy pants. You know when work will expect me to be back to business casual.

I went to the chiropractor today. He seemed pretty convinced that my hip being out of place has been that way since I was pregnant with DS and the cause of my back pain. I feel so much better too though I am walking a little funny. I guess that's what happens when your hip has been about a half inch higher than it should of been for the past 3ish years!

We may have put up our Christmas tree and decor tonight.....only because my son is with his dad starting Wednesday and we always do it day after thanksgiving.
