Happy November.  Let it all hang out.



My mother has decided to call the baby Percy.  She thinks it's just precious.  It makes me feel like...



and it makes me think of this...


(well, at least the oldies will understand this reference.)

JFC his name is Pearson.   If you don't want to say that you are welcome to call him Pearse or Pierce.  I don't even care how you spell it in your head.  But you don't get to just choose new names for him because you like them. And even if you did... PERCY?   Just no.

Yesterday morning Jazz and I left the house in our jammies with the intention of just hitting up the DD drive through then swinging to the grocery store to re-up on formula before heading back home to spend the day getting halloween stuff ready. The plan was a little party with the aunts uncles and cousins at my parents at 5PM. In DD drive through line my car started smoking (AGAIN.. persistent radiator trouble). So I parked the car and called my dad who luckily was free and came and patched it up enough to drive across town. He let me switch cars with him so I could head to the store and buy formula and head back to my house to get her costume stuff together while he worked on my car.... every store I go to is completely out of stock of gentlease. Finally find some at a CVS, and cross back to my apartment to get her costume.. its 3:30 at this point. Get home and realize.... when I switched cars with my dad, I did not take my house key off the damn keychain. WTF. WTF. WTF. So now my mom, who has the baby at this point, crosses town with my key. I go inside to grab what I need, still in my freakin pajamas. Leave, get half way back to my parents house for the party and remember that when I left in the morning I only had enough diapers in the diaper bag for what I thought was going to be a quick trip to the store... turn around and go back home for diapers. I just don't know what Im doing wrong.. I feel completely out of control and Im really not feeling this day!

So, when all was said and done my SO picked us up because my car is officially out of commission, I ate lots and lots of pizza and chocolate and drank a bottle of wine. Ramble on.

I've consumed my weight in Halloween candy this morning. Make it go away.

Also, this wasn't her Halloween costume but I put this hat on LO yesterday and she looks like a real Cabbage Patch doll.

Proof:

Ahhhh sugarkissed cutest picture ever!!!!

[erbear]

Adorable, sugarkissed!

My target was out of pretty much all Halloween things! But I have two bags of candy we didn't pass out last night since we weren't home. Mm, butterfinger cups.

I've been feeling it too, but I feel like H and baby have been working against me all day, so I haven't gotten much done. Going back to work has been a rough transition...

I definitely neglected it long enough, the amount of times I had to empty my vacuum is downright embarrassing! But it feels so nice to have a clean house (for today at least)

[shahoi]

sugarkissed Seriously, so cute!!

mrsmonogrammed I need to borrow some of your cleaning motivation. I haven't done a deep clean since I was nesting. So much dust. But, we just recently took the carpet up out of the living room and put down laminate. We have 2 indoor animals and I can't believe the amount of hair! I have to sweep daily, if not multiple times a day. It grosses me out thinking of all that being in that old carpet.

So I made real dinner tonight (meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and green beans) and short circuited the microwave in the process. I was boiling the potatoes and forgot to turn on the vent on as the microwave is over the range. Hoping DH can fix it. We've already had serious issues with this microwave this year.
So, I was looking for ways to fix it and clicked on a YouTube video. I'm currently nursing O to sleep for the night. He heard the video, popped off my boob, and gave me a 'bitch, please' look. Quite hysterical but I didn't laugh at him. He got shots Friday, has felt like crap all weekend, andplusalso stupid time change so he's been not so happy. But the look on his face was priceless.

Eta bc WE'RE SELLING OUR EFFING TOWNHOUSE TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no problem with Christmas music this early but someone in our neighborhood has their tree up already. My house still looks like Halloween threw up on it!

[erbear]

If you have Sirius XM, the Christmas stations return tomorrow!

Trapped in quote box.....   If we get our Halloween put away by Remembrance Day I'll be proud.  Plus we get a real tree so I can't even imagine that for two months.

Aaah! I just impulsively bought the baby guy box for November. I've never bought a subscription box before so I hope it's awesome. They have baby boy or girl boxes and toddler boy or girl boxes.

I also spent way too much money at a craft bazaar today. Gah! I got more Scentsy stuff, a background for my Origami Owl charm, two bandana bibs, a delish candle, and I ALMOST got Jamberry. I hope my H doesn't realize until after I get paid tomorrow!
