ProBoards stops working every time I try to post a new thread, so we'll see if this works.
It is so cold outside. I am considering taking the subway one stop instead of walking 15 minutes.
We got cookies in the mail. The best thing about that (other than the cookies) is that you then have an empty tin rattling around begging to be refilled. Thank you, Brad, for refilling it with my favorite BP chocolate chip cookies.
Did I mention it's cold out? It's only adding to my anxiety about my meeting this afternoon. Ugh.
It's cold here too. IN THE SOUTH. Brrrrr. I am thinking of going to the gym at lunch to get my workout in so I just have to walk the dogs (quickly) when I get home at 5pm and get back inside.
I think our foster pup may have been abused. Whenever he does anything wrong, he runs and hides in a corner (without us even reacting) and shakes. DH said he ran out of the front door yesterday and he was able to get him back in the backyard, but once they were there he was shaking and sulking. He won't really look us in the eye either. Poor guy.
Yeah Mags - he is afraid of everything. He runs whenever some thing happens that he's unsure of how we will react. Hopefully in time he will learn that nothing is a big deal with us and that he is safe.

I totally almost did that this morning. And then didn't want to waste the $2.50. I feel badly, but I ordered lunch to be delivered. I can't go out in this again until it's time to go home. The walk from the office to my train is not going to be fun.
DL - That's so sad. Our last foster was abused. Poor thing freaked if you moved your hand anywhere near her at first. Just be patient and sweet, and eventually he will learn.
I've been cool with being back at work until today. DD went to bed at 8pm last night. I got to spend less than 3 hours with her all day yesterday. Not cool. I've got to figure out a better balance. I want to be here, but that will make me not want to be here pretty quickly.
Also, I hate all my clothes. I want to scrap them and start fresh. I haven't gone shopping in ages. I think I'm due.

Yes that's exactly what we are doing motzie, it makes me so sad though. How can people do this to innocent dogs?
Bowies, any advice would be appreciated! One positive thing about him is that he is not too shy about being petted. He LOVES it and could spend hours just being petted on. DH and I take turns at night and it's very sweet. Willow is not a very affectionate dog, she just likes to play so this is a new side of DH I am seeing and I like it.

it's been cold here too... Today is the first day in more than 2 weeks that it's been over 25 degrees when I left for work. It was a balmy 36 today!
I told my bff about my conversation with my mom and she just texted me to tell me that she ordered me a pair of shoes to celebrate my "impending independence". LOL I love her! So far she won't tell me what they look like, but she keeps dropping little hints. I should have it figured out in a couple of hours. She's not so good at secrets.
I'm not doing well, guys. Stressed out and ready to puke at any given moment. There's more I could say, but I need to figure out some things first before I talk about it.
However, I am happy for starry, bowies, imoan and fuss for their vacations or big life changes coming up. yay!

Lots and lots of hugs. You know we are here for you when you are ready to talk and need us. (hug) (hug2)
I left work today around lunch, drove to my gym and ran. I came back to work after and finished out my day. I could not get out of bed this morning to run so I just threw my clothes in the car and took care of it. I love that my job doesn't mind is doing stuff like that.
I seriously don't know if I will survive tomorrow evening. I have to take care of the horses after work and it's going to be the coldest day yet.

::hugs:: gault. I hope you get everything figured out.
I know how you feel, Motzie. My kid goes to bed at 7 and I use to get home at 5. I had the mom guilt bad. Hopefully you can figure out a solution. Lucky for me, my schedule changed and now I get out of work at 3.
Oh, my random is: the kid has a fever and I have a sore throat. It's shaping up to be a fantastic weekend ::sarcasm::
