Why do the weekends go by SO quickly!?! This week is going to be interesting. I fly to NYC on Tuesday back on Friday. I have my career setting meeting all day Thursday. Hopefully A is nice to DH this week. I feel bad leaving him solo. Anyone else have anything going on this week. I feel like after this week I may go to my office twice before 2017. It's been a long year.
Good luck on your trip! DH has to go up to Columbus today, but he'll be back late tonight. I might go to my grandma's for dinner so I don't have to wrangle a toddler while cooking after work today.
Final exams start on Thursday. I can't wait for this semester to be over.
I announced at work today. I put a dozen donuts in the first floor lounge with a note that says "I brought donuts because I'm pregnant. Enjoy!"
Lots of people around here send out a mass email to the entire faculty/staff, and that's really just NMS. I hope I can just tell a few and word can spread.
We're back. Trip was overall good for DS. DH was wound way too tight. He's on crutches from a torn miniscus. He tore it before the baby was born, did nothing but hobble around. Went to the doctor and got an MRI before our trip and they said crutches for three weeks. So even though he could hobble around for two months, he now can't do anything. Leaving me to do everything on the trip and I wanted to cancel. MIL was her usual. "Mom why didn't you tell us the toddler was dumping water in his lap when you were sitting right beside him or stop him?" "Well I just saw him sticking his finger in it." 😡 And then he told her to keep DS awake on a short car trip and she was like what am I? Why can't you do it (when he's driving.) Like seriously you're getting a free trip. All she is capable of is doing whatever fun thing she wants. Never once said can I take the baby or hold the baby, I always had to ask or hand him over like- here take him so I can eat now that you're done eating thanks.

Relaxing is not how I would describe vacationing with kids. DS is currently taking his little people on a "vacation" on their bus and saying they have fun so he must have enjoyed it. The adventure science museum in Nashville was really nice. So was the Opryland mall- he loved Rainforest cafe even though it scared him, he wouldn't stop talking about it afterwards. And the mall had space to run around, a play place, and a carousel. And opryland hotel was good with the river cruise and all that but it costs money to do everything there. It would be great for older kids- ice skating and an ice show and a ice Sculpture thing, plus the opry show. The opry is 7-10pm and with time change its 8-11 so we didn't do that. Still miss gatlinburg,

becole gawd that would annoy me too with mil. For some reason I thought you were bringing your mom not mil. You should have cancelled and hung out with us!

Ugh, becole, your MIL... I can't even. I'd wanna slap her.
Christmas at the trump supporting in laws was okay. They briefly talked about him and someone made a "joke" and said "I voted for hillary! Haha just kidding, I would never!" type comment and I raised my hand and said "I proudly voted for hillary! I know I'm the black sheep". No one replied. Lol then as we were leaving DHs uncle said "bye demi" (democrat), then said to DD "We will make a Republican out of you, don't you worry". So many eye rolls on that one. I just said something like, I'm raising her to have a kind heart and be accepting of all.
So that was that. I leave for NYC early Friday morning. I'll be going as mominthemaking14 will be leaving. We are driving down though. Leaving at like 3am. We are literally taking a half gallon of iced coffee... If not more. Lol

Pukey McPukester checking in.
DS is still sick, I have a ton of laundry and cleaning up to do (MIL left early this morning), and I have Cincinnati Bell coming in a few hours to install our new services.

I just ate some spring onion soup, the broth has me feeling mostly human. I guess I should do some work so I can squeeze in some last minute studying this afternoon.

Soup sounds so good to me today, and this guy at work always runs to a lunch place that has amazing chicken noodle. Of course he is out sick today And I'm too lazy to go over there myself.

Mine was just something I picked up in the ethnic food section, it was by Thai whatever.
I need help with this whole rate shopping thing. I don't want to go through the whole pre-approval process for multiple lenders, but I'd like to get an idea of what's out there. I also feel like there are so many "what ifs" when you're selling a house and buying a new one. No one is calling me back, which is annoying to have to track people down.
