Happy Presidents' Day Randoms

[PepperPottsJ]

Getting ready to leave the office, and it is a US holiday, I have no one to play with, and suffering from some serious jet lag. Since I have been a bit MIA what better way to return than randomly . Happy Monday morning GKU!!

Wishing those of you off today many hours of this:

[PepperPottsJ]

...also suffering from some significant punctuation and grammar issues, oopsie

[gabride2010]

Lol! Good morning PepperPottsJ. I hope you recover from your jet lag soon.

I wish I could stay in bed, but I have to go to work today. At least I'm off call as of 8am this morning! My first week of call went really well, so I'm happy about that.

Omg can Kanye be more of a douche??

I have to go to the dentist in 20mins for a crown...great start to my day off, ugh.
I hope to spend the rest of the day lounging and being lazy. I hope H is on board with that.

I hope the crown goes ok today!

Leaving for the RE in a few minutes. Then home to be lazy the rest of the day. I'm so tired I will definitely need a good nap today.

[sanibel21]

Good luck at the RE peaseblossom55!
I'm working four hours from home. But getting paid for eight! Woot! Holiday is double pay. It's like five below so its not like I'd be going anywhere. We have had such a lazy weekend already.

GL peaseblossom55 !!

GL at dentist wannabmama and good luck with RE peaseblossom55!


I'm around! Roads weren't as bad as I expected them to be so that was a pleasant surprise.

I have to do a new hire orientation this morning starting at 8am so I won't be able to play much until that's over. Work is getting in the way of TCFing today.

So far my morning has consisted of a grumpy husband, DD with a diaper that leaked all over her pajamas and bedding, 3 separate cat puke piles (one of which I stepped in after my shower), and no coffee creamer at home. I am actually happy to be at work now and away from that suck fest. Plus there is coffee and creamer here.

[ladytiffany24]

Oh my gosh you guise. My new hire is hot. He's filling out paperwork right now but I don't know how I'm going to get through him sitting in my office for 2 hours while I have to talk to him. Going to be blushing and turning into a bumbling idiot soon.

You need a big container of clorox wipes. That is the only thing that will fix your day

[sleepymonkey]

@wallflwr926, I need to take stock out on the clorox wipes because I go through them like crazy. My family is gross.

Clorox wipes do fix just about everything.

Sorry for the craptastic start to the day sleepymonkey hope things start looking up.

I wish I had your day! Enjoy the eye candy.

[littlelion]

I'm a little hung over. And I blame my husband. It's a bad start to my Monday.

[icedtea]

Good luck wannabmama and peaseblossom55! sleepymonkey, chug that coffee.

I am working. My last company had today off, but this new one doesn't. It's worth the trade off, but I'm still slightly grumpy about it. We were supposed to get up to ~5-6 inches and 1/4 inch of ice overnight. I woke up to...nothing at all. Oh, weather.

Has anyone bought anything good with the Presidents Day sales?

[TheEleventhHour]

Yeah, totally didn't remember it was a holiday. Because, I mean, Presidents' Day. Not high on my list of holidays. I was trying to be proactive and run errands and the effing bank and post office are closed. I work 7-11:30 tonight. Otherwise being lazy today.

I'm sorry this made me laugh. But I feel you, husbands, kids, and animals all together in one space is basically a recipe for disaster. 

[TheEleventhHour]

Also uuugggghhhhh the dishwasher is still not working. Blah. It is supposed to warm up into the 20s today and 40s tomorrow so I'm hoping that helps. I really hope it is just a frozen pipe to it and that it isn't actually broken. And of course it is completely full of dirty dishes which I really don't feel like taking out and washing by hand so it better fix itself ASAP.

[kayladawn91]

I'm off work today. I'm meeting a friend for lunch later. This will be the first time we've gotten together since she had her baby. Hopefully I can hold it together nicely and not be a huge Debbie downer.

[mustloveerica]

Ugh. Puppy snores like a freight train these days. It keeps me up all night. I like having the dogs in our room at night but I may have to give in and move him. He doesn't sleep in his crate at night for the most part. We have a massive dog bed that our dogs happily share. But last night he must have done something to the other dog in the middle of the night because I was scared awake but a very loud bark out of no where. So then I moved puppy to his crate so there'd be no more problems. But his crate is getting too small and I think the confined space makes him snore more. So I'm irritated from being awake all night. My husband doesn't even snore...why does my dog? So not fair.

[ThankfulSnail]

Good morning! I'm working today. DD's prior daycare was always closed on Presidents' Day so I took it off last year. I don't miss having to use the PTO day for today, but I wish I was home watching movies and cuddling with DD and not working on a project with the vaguest instructions possible.

On the bright side, it's my last week at my job this week, so that oughta get me through.

[kayladawn91]

I should really get out of bed but it's so comfy and warm!!

Stay in for as long as possible so those of us who had to get out of bed can live vicariously through you!

[notagoddess]

We ended up going out last night. There's a local restaurant chain famous for their desserts, and apparently Obama went there for the chocolate cake. So we also went, and it was amazing. I had leftover chocolate cake for breakfast. Perfect start to the day.

[notagoddess]

I kind of had to eat cake for breakfast because our toaster broke. And we keep our bread frozen.

I'm looking at new toasters on Amazon right now. So many options!

[daisy818]

notagoddess, I'm drinking my coffee out of my "Eat Cake For Breakfast" mug. I wish I had actually had cake to eat for breakfast though!
