Only one more weekend then I'm back to work. I can't believe how quickly 4 months flew by. I'm not ready to go back. Well, more accurately I just despise change, and this is a big change for me. Once we get in our new groove I'm sure I will be happy. I'm definitely less stressed than going back after K, but it's hitting me that this was my last mat leave and now I'm just going to work until I retire! Ugh.
We are leaving Wednesday for our road trip and I'm starting to regret our choice to go just before I go back to work, it feels like there is so much to do and so little time. I'm sure I will enjoy our trip once I get there, I'm just stressed right now with all of the packing and planning.
DH and I had to discuss frivolous spending and make goals to get it in check. I need to freeze the Kohls card into a block of ice (proverbially, probably won't really). We've gotten into a bad habit of filling a bored afternoon with browsing and spending and it's not good.
kames12 and classictwitch WOAH!!!!!! Is there something going on there with those kids because D and Little Twitch are an item.... Like I have his tux ironed for their first prom together!
Haha! kames12's D is quite the ladies' man! And you know puppy love--this might fizzle out before prom time ;P
That and I think chewbaccarock's S has put a claim on him
I had to clean a little so I could make coffee and pump tomorrow morning.
I found a lid today from 7/29/93. That's the oldest strawberry jam lid I found. It's in my moms hand writing. This is the first jam batch we've made since my mom passed. Missed her a lot this weekend. I'm looking forward to telling the girls all about her while we eat strawberry jam on our peanut butter and jelly, and on our waffles, and over vanilla ice cream when we need a really special treat.
Sorry for the sap... On a slightly lighter note, my moms best friend came over Friday to hold N while we worked. When L came home from my mil she was bouncing off the walls. BF looked at me and said... "She's the spitting image of you... And I remember you being the same way in the nursery at church". L was running around with her mouth open, making noise just to make noise. Well at least I know I once had energy like that!!
I LOVE reading your sap! Family stories like that always make me smile. BTW, I have a terrific recipe for oatmeal bar cookies filled with jam if you'd like it. I bet homemade would taste even better than the store bought I used!
Had a great day visiting a friend. She disappeared into finishing her masters in nursing. She's a NICU nurse. I didn't see an awake DS cept for when he was up at 4 this morning but it was worth it. The social butterfly in me needed all the social interactions I got this weekend. Already got DH to agree to put DS to bed tomorrow so I can make workinit's chocolate after we go grocery shopping

lioness13 I think yours is the nicest race shot I've ever seen.
LOL! Thanks! I looked at many others (instead of cleaning like I should be) that were better I have no idea when there was a camera around. I really just tried to focus in front of me and keep moving.
I lost the cap on my Jawbone. I went running this morning and noticed it a little while after I got back, so I don't know if it's out on the road somewhere or in my parents' house, but it's not worth looking for. Do you think if I contacted the company I could get a new one?

Their customer service is really awesome, so it's definitely worth a try!
thelorax it's 8 hours or so... Lots of mountains between here and there. And no roads. I could be there in a helicopter in less then two hours. I haven't been there but I have heard it is really beautiful.
