One of our managers brought in a brand new Keurig today for everyone to use. This will not do anything for my attempt to cut back on my caffeine consumption.

Not looking forward to my tech help day.... tuesdays and thursdays are when people can ask alllll the questions.

I was researching gifs this morning and I found one that was sort of disturbing. Not like omg disturbing... just not what I expected...

SPOILER: Click to show

OMG. I wasn't expecting that. I know what you mean it freaked me out more than it should have at first.

We're finally getting a deck today!! They are coming to start drilling the holes for the footings. They said it should be done before the 4th. We also bought our patio furniture from Costco last night and a nice table for H's Big Green Egg. I can't wait for it to all be done so we can finally enjoy it!

requiressnacks, I try to make it a priority every day. I wish I could be a SAH TCF'er

That would be an amazing job. I'm usually pretty devoted to TCF-ing in the mornings, but then I am forced to be productive an do real work in the afternoons.

I wish I could take a train to work or something so I could TCF on my way to work and way home

This is me every day, I sneak on a bit at work here and there but the 40min or so each way on the train catches me all up!

It sounds like your deck will be done before mine... We started in April

Are you building it yourselves or did you hire someone? We started getting quotes at the end of April then decided to quote material to do it ourselves then ended up hiring someone. Seems like we've been dealing with this forever but it's only been a couple months.

All of my time lately has been devoted to reading a book. Shocker.

What book?

Fated by Benedict Jacka. Hooked so hard. Might have a massive crush on the main character.

My H and I are on vacation next week and we are planning a date day of Jurassic World followed by hibachi. I cannot wait.

I need to get my butt in gear today and pack all the things. It feels overwhelming but I think we have more than enough time between today and tomorrow. Picking up the moving truck Saturday morning! I also need to find the title to my car (fail). I am really hoping it is in our safety deposit box.

Anyone else Supreme Court-watching this morning? They may be issuing their opinions on Medicaid and Marriage Equality today.

YES. I'm glued to SCOTUSblog.

ME TOO! gaaaaaah.  

Watch them punt again. We'll be right back here tomorrow.

It feels weird to say "have fun moving" because it is a huge pain in the butt sometimes, but I hope you enjoy it as much as possible!

I am actually super excited so the prospect of packing and moving 300 miles away with a toddler and a dog isn't so bad. As long as I don't have to drive the truck through Boston I am good!

Tomorrow's the anniversary of the DOMA decision. I won't be surprised if we don't see an opinion on Obergefell today. But maybe King v. Burwell will come down today?

This is the one I'm particularly anxious about. I work in health policy and my world will be shattered if they revoke Medicaid subsidies over a stupid phrasing technicality.

[zombiesquad]

Every time I see this thread title, it makes me think about Whitney Houston's "Where Do Broken Hearts Go." Anyone remember that jam?

I'm so happy I could cry. O.M.F.G.

Guess we'll keep waiting for the marriage decision. They just love to string us along...

Happy Birthday starbuck27, and Happy Anniversary ChoppinBroccoli! Can't tag you for some reason. Stupid mobile! I'm off this week and I'm finding myself wondering how SAHM's find time to TCF! It is much easier when I am at work!

[nepatsgal]

So I put DS down for an early nap about 10 minutes ago. Just realized I was dancing and lip singing to Team Umizoomi. I have since changed the channel....

We're seeing Jurassic Park tonight. Not sure if 3D though.

I am at work today. It is raining.

Happy Birthday starbuck27!!

I am bummed because I got my dates screwed up and I thought Saturday was DH's company picnic so I told my employer I wasn't coming to work, but I just found out it is not until July 25th.... How did I screw that up?? I have been convinced for WEEKS that it was happening on June 27th. Weeks!! So now I am going to come in Saturday night when I was really really really looking forward to a night off.

It is my second-to-last day at this job and I'm teleworking. Basically, I'm making a disc of all my files to leave for my replacement and cuddling with my kitties. This is awesome.

And of course by Medicaid I meant ACA. Huge difference. I couldn't with words this morning.

I think my dogs have been trying to prepare me for parenthood by waking me up in the middle of the night. Our beagle randomly woke up at 1:00 am last night and took a while to fall back asleep. So I am tired today. It's been weeks since I've had a good and uninterrupted night of sleep.   Thank goodness for coffee.

[Rama]

I'm so goddamn tired of waking up with a stuffy nose and it not going away until nearly lunchtime.

Yup. Claritin and I are having an affair.

[nuggetrn]

Fun story time!

TL;DR My mother totally found allllll my wondfos while helping DH pack up the house yesterday.

I had taken all baby paraphernalia out of the bathroom and had it stuck in an old purse and it was sitting in the living room with piles of things that needed to be loaded (my first mistake clearly was not immediately removing it all from the house). So while I wasn't there yesterday my mom and DH finished packing up the few odds and ends in the kitchen and living room that needed to be taken out.

When I got home from work last night DH was still unloading the truck so I went to help him. In the back of the truck was the purse... with a small white ceramic dog sticking out of the top, but zippered shut up to his neck (think of the type of purse one might carry a live dog in, head sticking out). I look at DH and say, who put this dog in here... "Your mom." Cue freak out. The dog had been sitting in the living room and I know she just stuck it in the purse to prevent it from getting broken.

I open the purse, pull out the dog, and underneath are wondfos - OPKS and HPTS! Being stored in an old FRER box that I had cut in half to old things so it stayed organized. O God, she's seen it all.

She hasn't said a word though, unless you count the subtle baby hints that I feel are getting less and less subtle. She is probaly putting some things together... Like the time I accidentally asked her if she had GD because my OB wanted to know some family history because of my long cycles and I told her I was having long cycles and oops now she probably knows I am not on BCPs.

My mother is one of my best friends, and it will probably be ok that she saw these things, and maybe we will never talk about it. I don't know. It was rather hilarious though yesterday realizing she had found that stuff.
