Re-entry burn Monday (Randoms)

[butlerfan]

Let's hear what you are up to!

[ceejay]

Back at work today for almost a full day! I came in late (around 10) and will probably leave around 2-3. This is H's first time home alone with all 3 boys!

[butlerfan]

So apparently my right rear tire has a slowish leak in it (found out at almost 6 last night as Walmart was closing). They say it isn't repairable and that actually both rear tires should be replaced since the walls are thin.

I get the concept of replacing two at a time but is it really necessary?

And since they were closing they couldn't do anything other then pump it up.  So this morning I had to pump it up again and I'm sure this evening I'll have to do the same....ugh.  I don't have time for this right now.

I'm at work and found out my arch nemesis was canned this morning. He was such a dick and went out of his way to make me feel stupid, so I feel very vindicated and may have actually squealed in happiness. He was the reason I changed departments on my return. I didn't think I could do it any more.

DH is home today and so I got to go to Target and Kohls alone. It was glorious.

I'm so glad I took a mental health day off of work.

I'm continuing the Ghost Adventures catch up,and, when my husband gets back from his store run, we are going to play Pandemic and eat junk food and have a day drink or two.

I'm pretty pumped.

I usually replace the one that needs ot, but if they are saying that both have thin walls, I would probably just do both to save myself from future aggravation

Ugh, that sucks! I don't think you HAVE to replace both, but it's probably in your best interest so you don't end up with a flat tire. If one has a leak then the other one probably isn't too far behind. Did you try finding used tires? They're usually about half price so you might be able to get two for the price of one.

I'm hungover. I drank waaay too much wine last night. I was planning on working today but I think I'll just eat pizza in bed instead.

cjchio and lilsneezy thanks! It was Walmart at closing time for the auto store so didn't really have much of a chance to discuss-they did give me a quote for tires which are actually reasonable costs which is nice. And I haven't looked for other tires currently....I had 2 hungry kids and we were hungry as well so we ate at Subway due to the delay and then had things that needed to get done before this morning.

So currently just limping along and repumping the tire until I get in and get it fixed.

It might be that one stays home and cooks while the other gets the kids and drives them home. Then eat quick and then have 1 go back to get it fixed while the other gets stays with the kids to play, get ready for bed, story, and put them down.

Last night I was checking out at the grocery store and realized -midway through checkout and just after mobile ordering from Starbucks next door - that I left my wallet at home. Then my toddler managed to somehow knock a panel off the check stand. Luckily we only live a few minutes from the store, so we got our cart set aside and went out to our car, but on the way home I realized my low pressure light was on. I left J at home with MH and got the groceries and coffee but we had a super late dinner. Turns out I had a nail in my tire but they didn't find a leak so we don't have to replace anything (yet.)

I feel like I get things in my tires a lot. We live in the suburbs; I don't regularly drive through construction sites or anything. Is it more common than I think or do I somehow draw screws and nails to my car?

Finally went to the doctor to get my knee pain diagnosed. It's arthritis. The doctor tells me, "Well, you're not young anymore." (I'll be 37 in a couple months). Aging sucks, but at least I know what it is now!

Sorry about the arthritis! I have RA and it suuucks. Aleve works wonders, though.

My sister has RA and seeing what it does to her, I agree it sucks. I'm sorry you have it too! They think this I have osteoarthritis though, which my mom had. I got a temporary script for meloxicam, recommendation to lose weight, and a referral to an orthopedist.

I just ate an avocado and the last bite had a bad spot that I didn't see until it was already in my mouth. It was so gross. Why the last bite?!! I didn't have anything to get the bad taste out of my mouth.

Ugh the worst. And there really is nothing better in life than a perfect avocado.

I stopped for Mexican takeout on my way home instead of working out which was probably not the best way to start the week.

I actually had to work today. I hit the gym first and came home and showered, fed the kids lunch and dropped them at my moms. I didn't get back to pick them up until late and now my youngest is passed out but DS1 is refusing to fall asleep. Idk why but DS1 has always had a hard time falling asleep but once he does, he really sleeps a lot. And DS2 usually falls asleep pretty well (not always but normally) but he wakes up a lot in the night and is an early riser. Sigh.

I heard something about people having a new home I gardening.

Don't get overexcited. Not busy over there either.
