I have a ton of things to do at work today, but I'd rather TCF and Facebook. Responsibilities...sigh...
My birthday was yesterday and I took a girls trip to do a Wicked Wine Run at a winery in Southern Missouri. My legs hurt so damn bad today. Must step up gym game, ASAP.
True. But my office-mates aren't really a fan that I know every work to every song... and that I spent hours when I was in middle school making my voice sound exactly like hers when I was singing her songs. lol.
Tomorrow we start the next set of training for foster care. It's 8 weeks of trauma training from 5-8:30 with a meal provided. It's not required yet but it will be in the future (they don't know when yet) so I figure we should get it done now before we get licensed so we don't have to try to fit it in our schedules once we do have a placement. And I want as much training as possible to feel more prepared and feel like I'm doing something while we wait for the background checks.

And I missed all of you...work has been nuts and I haven't been on for a while other than 1 post and run and haven't even been able to really lurk either.
Not sure how much better this week will be either but I at least got on more than I have in a while.
Hope work gets better! And good luck with the training. That sounds intense.

Oh it will be and when they show the videos I get all the feels. They always show the worst to help you prepare but I feel like this set of classes will help us be able to help them if/when they open up about any abuse they have encountered.
And it is also to train us on knowing when we are hitting a wall and how to ask for help as well.

I'm annoyed and debating what to do. I work with a community theatre as a board member, they announced their new season of plays/musicals recently. One of my responsibilities is to secure the legal rights to perform the shows, two of the shows they announced we have secured the rights for yet. Part of me like eh it's just community theatre no one will make a big deal. The other part of me feels quite uncomfortable with this, and wants to say something.

W, our executive producer know which shows we have and don't have the rights too yet. I am the only contact for the theatre on this stuff. So they decided to announce knowing they didn't have everything they needed too.
Hi bitches! I've been MIA bc of a fucked up 50 cycle - I'm still benched until next cycle at least- and work has been craaazy, but I miss you all so much.
I was holding one of my listing open this weekend and had another agent helping me out since I knew it was going to be insane (we had about 150 through between Saturday and Sunday.) Any way we get there and she says, "oh do you have some news for me?!" Nope just fat and definitely still not pregnant. Awkward!
We're 30 days from our house hitting the market and 60 from our big move. Where is the time going!?!
Me: 31 Wife: 30. Legally married 2008, thanks CA! TTC #1 since 11/14 using donor sperm. IUIs Jan-Aug 2015 BFN Sept & OCT 2015 added Femara. BFN Saw RE December 2015.

Maybe not in that same tone, but maybe just get across that for this can happen you need to go obtain the legal rights and since you typically are the one that takes care of that you have not completed it, therefore someone obviously already completed it if they have announced it.

you could always go the passive aggressive route :-) "I'm the only contact for these legal rights, so who did you speak with to obtain them?" (Knowing full well they weren't obtained)
I sent an email last night when I got an email saying they were going to announce and I replied, back that we aren't announcing the two shows since I just checked and both rights and still in a pending status. Of course the email has since not been responded to.

H and his boss are taking some clients to opening day here so I'm on my own for dinner. I'm trying out spaghetti squash for the first time and I'm a little nervous
It's one of those things that's intimidating at first (to me at least...) but it's hard to mess up! My favorite way of it making it is tossing the "noodles" with butter and herbs.

So glad for the good news notagoddess Sorry for all the randomly late freezing weather to everyone bex15 that's not a legit reason to call in. That's annoying! W they're all beautiful, but I like necklace #1 Happy belated bday akraus2015!
AFM: They updated our payment system at work, however WE CANT PAY! It's been like this for over a week. It's only working properly for 2 people and they just tell us 'thank you for your patience...' Hmph!!
I'd like to crawl back in bed and continue re-watching/binging Prison Break season 2.

Yes I did a good butter and garlic sauce one time. It works well with any sauce really. I've eaten it with cheese and salsa too.
And my best friend has postponed her wedding. She was never set on the date that was picked (giving us less than 2 months to plan) and this way we can do the "normal" wedding planning and it will not be such a rush job.
And I told her about our struggles with IF and looking to foster and we talked for almost 4 hours about everything late last week. She asked some questions about IF and fostering because she doesn't know the process (like most people off the street don't) but was very understanding about the pain of IF and open and excited for us for fostering.

butlerfan, glad you got to have a great talk with your friend about the IF and fostering. Having this board is so wonderful but it's nice to have someone IRL to talk to.
Can anyone suggest a good place (or brand/designer) that does nicer, but not "fine" jewelry. My mom is asking for earrings for her birthday. She said she just wants costume, but I'd like to get her something that will last. She likes drop or hoop earrings. I'd say her style is similar to David Yurman if that helps. I'd like to stay around $100 since her birthday and MIL's birthday are all in the same week as Mother's Day. All those presents add up!

My friend just texted to let me know she and her daughter are in town. We made plans to have dinner tomorrow. I haven't seen her since Christmas so I'm excited.

I would probably go to a Macy's or off sacks fifth avenue and see what they have there.
