I legit LOLed at the RV poop story because my parents know how to drain their RV toilet all too well. They're on the road 6 months at a time in their RV. Pro tip: next time put your hand in one of those heavy-duty garbage bags (like a big glove) when you have to dig down in the shitter.
Today I'm supposed to clean up the basement, but we'll see how that goes. I have to do some groceries and take my dog to the dog park.
This morning while I was at Dunkin Donuts, MIL called MH and left a voicemail telling him she's in the hospital but not to worry about her. So we call one of the largest hospitals in the area and she was discharged from the emergency room last night. I keep calling the number she's calling from but with no answer.....
I also talked to MH's cousin to let her know what was going on (her mom was worried about her). She told me about the "boyfriend" my MIL is probably sending money too, and sent me a picture of him. I did a google image search (thanks Catfish!) and found out that it's a picture that is used by scammers in Nigeria and Malaysia to get get unsuspecting women to send them money. I'm so fucking pissed right now.
Hi. I am very drowsy this morning. I faced two of my fears yesterday and one turned out great and the other mortifying. Now I plan on doing nothing today after a week from hell at work.

Yikes! Glad you had a 50/50 success with your fears!
I'm also doing relatively nothing today. Nothing is good sometimes.

What? That's crazy. So is she okay since she's been discharged?

youdontsay I am sorry about MIL money probs. There are some truly shitty people out there. At least you're not catching it 5 years down the road or something.

I wish we caught it a lot sooner, she was evicted from her apartment last Friday and is living in her car.
She's sent this guy over $2000 (she's on SSD, so she would borrow money from people) as well as sending him a new iPhone too...

Woah, I'm so sorry. Seems like she's going through a lot right now.

Aw I feel so sorry for your MIL right now. Taking advantage of people is so freaking dirty.
Thank you for the poop tip though!!! I didn't think of that. All I had were lab gloves so my hand were protected hit my arm was.....vulnerable :s

Oh wow. That really sucks she's being taken advantage of like that. Does she know yet or are you going to have to break it to her?

I woke up at 4:30 and couldn't fall back asleep until 6. Blah.
On the bright side I was due to start orientation Monday but the last minute job offer for the job I really wanted came in and their next orientation isn't until September 14th so three more weeks off. I can't complain about that!
The dogs had a vet appointments today. Since one was for a dental cleaning, it's a "surgery" appointment and I had to drop them off at 7am. The vet is 35 minutes away, so I got up at 6.
I'm so tired. But on the plus side, Jack in the Box breakfast burritos. So, there's that. Think I'll go back to sleep for a bit while I wait for the dogs to be ready to be picked up.
I'm a terrible cook and am always tired after work so we eat a lot of box or frozen dinners. I am on a mission to eat fresher and healthier foods by utilizing my crock pot more starting today with barbecue pork steaks. Hopefully it goes well.
I'm terrified of heights and most likely will never bungee jump or jump out of a plane.
Well mine is more anxious situations. Yesterday it was pooping in public places and artistic things. I clogged the toilet and had to put a sign on the door which was mortifying. I took a painting class and painted an awesome picture. So partial win yesterday.

So, during the summer when the weather is good, we do a lot of grilling.
I've finally gotten to the point where I will grill two or three times the amount of chicken (or whatever meat I'm grilling) when I grill. It takes only a little more time, but then during the week I've got precooked meat. I'll take some of the grilled chicken and dice it up to put on top of a salad, or put it in wraps or whatever. Fantastically quick and easy.
And as much as I hate to do it, I've found that Trader Joe's boxed/frozen dinners are way healthier than the major brands. If you have one nearby and you go, pick up some of their tomato and roasted red pepper soup. It's so good. We have it pretty consistently in the winter - just add some mild sausage and a little bit of pasta for a heartier meal.

DH is running on the treadmill. He is wearing is headphones because I am watching TV. But he is also singing at the top of his lungs which defeats the purpose of the headphones in the first place ...
