I'll start the venting early. I had an 8am flight. I checked the flight status before I left, since there was some weather issues here and where I was going last night. The flight is still on, and on time. Hooray.
I arrive at the airport at 6:15, only to be told the flight was cancelled. It's not even weather related, but maintenance. Now don't get me wrong, I do not want to get on a plane with maintenance issues, so I'm happy they're fixing that. DH The problem is the next direct flight is not until 4:30pm. I wasted time and gas, and will have to use more gas to go back to to the airport.
I'm not as annoyed with the time and gas wasted, but now I will literally only get to see DH for 24 hours (three of which will be in the car going back and forth to the airport). It could be worse, I know, just bummed I won't get to see DH for that long.
The MM part of this is I got a $100 credit.
Happy Saturday MM! Hope everyone has a great weekend.
At the request of my ILs, I made an appointment for them to see a house in our neighborhood. It's a ranch and they have been looking to downsize to a one-story home. I knew they liked our neighborhood a lot but I didn't know they were this serious. If they bought the house we'd be able to sit on our back decks and see each other. I love my ILs but this might be a little "close".

That might definitely be too close for comfort. Here's hoping they don't like it.
I woke up at 5:45 this morning for no reason at all. Why can't this happen on weekdays when I actually need to be up early but find it hard to drag myself out of bed?
Last night my dh and put a plan in place to pay off all of credit cards by January 2014... Its been a long journey but I cannot wait to be credit card debt free. Yiiipiiieee
I am really crabby today. H was trying to get out the door for a conference this morning, and he was getting on my last nerve. I may have told him to go away and slammed the door on his way out.
We just got our January gas bill. It was over 3 times last months and almost 60% more than last January's bill. I know we had a cold snap, but sheesh. I guess I turned the thermostat up a little too often!
Woke up yesterday with a swollen, sore elbow. Got worse throughout the day and finally went to a dr. last night and I have bursitis with an infection I can still hardly move my elbow and it is huge! Also, I was told not to really use it this weekend - don't know how I'm going to do that, DH doesn't seem too happy this morning taking care of DD3 all day to let my elbow rest. Hence his stomping around and mumbling around the house when she woke up and he took her downstairs.

This was my child this morning. She sat in the bed playing on my cell phone while I slept. And she is napping now, but I have to work today. No rest for me. Good thing kids are cute.
I'm getting my Saturday off to a good start. H took the dog out this morning (I usually have weekend morning duty) and he's making me breakfast in bed. I've been really down lately and this, plus a whole day of watching The West Wing, is what I needed.
I am going to a beer tasting event this afternoon with a friend. She had an extra ticket she's giving me. I wish my DH was coming instead of her, he would love that kind of thing. But we should have just bought 2 tickets ourselves in that case... and it's sold out so he can't come.
I'm also looking forward to it, but worried I'm going to be drunk at 4pm, have to call my DH to pick me up, and then my night is going to be wasted (no pun intended, lol). I don't want to be drunk but IDK how I'm going to taste a bunch of beers without that happening.
I baked cookies this morning to bribe/thank my FIL. As a result, he is downstairs helping H with some house projects and I'm relaxing upstairs. The only other thing I'll be requested to do to help them will be to go pick up lunch. I think I can handle that

I slept in and am now trying to the motivation to go on a run. It doesn't help that while I've been playing on the internet 6 runners just went past my house.
My parents are coming to town tonight to take me out for b-day dinner. I'm very excited but it means I need to clean my house.
MH has the flu. He's the only one in our house who didn't get the flu shot. Grrr. When he gets sick he's SO SICK.
I still love Seinfeld Today on Twitter. So funny.
I want brownies!!
I know lots of people who got the flu even though they had the flu shot this year. Here's hoping you all stay healthy!
DH forgot to turn my alarm off last night so it went off at 7:30 as it always does. Grr. Of course, he was already at work so I had to roll across the bed to get the alarm and then think about how to turn it off because it's new and I never set it.

I couldn't do that either. I like our families being two hours away at a minimum.
I'm a little annoyed, I just found out that I have a large vitamin D deficiency and hypothyroidism. I've had my levels tested over the last few years and this would make sense as to why I've started gaining weight over the last few years and have really had to fight to take it back off.

Lots of water, take food breaks, dump any that taste really strong after a few sips, or dump if you don't really like them. Those kinds of events kick my ass if I don't watch out too. Maybe plan to take a nap after.

I would make sure to eat ahead of time too so that you have a base in your stomach.

I always need a nap after a beer festival, but then I'm ok for a quiet night of watching a movie or something. Have fun!
I was sick this week and stayed home on Tuesday. H was a jerk about it and made a comment that he thought I was just trying to get out of going to work and how his work doesn't allow people to take time off like that (I get 16 sick days per year, he gets 5).
He just told me that he is sick, w/ the same symptoms. I am somewhat happy about this. Karma, bitch!

I would be kinda happy about this too. My DH gets annoyed because I have so many sick days and I'm not afraid to take them if I'm sick.
Last Sunday, we bought a box of each flavor of the Special K pasty crisps (so 25 total servings). I was going to grab one to snack on before lunch, but they are all gone. I took one with my lunch each day this week. Turns out that FI has been taking FOUR every single day. I didn't even get to try all the flavors

I dreamed last night that I was playing slot machines, but instead of putting in cash or tickets, I was putting in raw chicken breasts. When I cashed out, there were tickets. Any analysis of this?
I've been on a low carb diet for the past two weeks with very little cheating and great results. Last night I had the most intense vivid dream about eating a giant bottomless bowl of pasta smothered in alfredo sauce. Now I want it for real.
Dh is upset because i took her to the non profit clinic our vet recommended. He doesn't like that incision is big and looks ugly (not the infected, bad news ugly, the our dog just had major surgery less than 48 hours ago ugly.) and our puppy is very low key--not running and jumping around.
It's getting to the point where I want to smack him. She is fine. It was a great clinic. Healing takes time.
OMG. My H acted like the world ended because Biscuit was no longer happy and jumpy after he got neutered. Um, that's called recovering from surgery. LOL. He was back to normal a few days later. My H also complained that the vet did an ugly job of stitching B up. I reminded him that we paid $200 for the procedure, and it would have cost thousands to do on a person.
