Boo I had to work most of the weekend, and when I wasn't working I was running errands. Oh well. Now I get to do a bunch more work today! Except I inevitably find myself drawn to all the papal resignation posts on GBCN.

I've worked enough weekends that Monday is no longer gross. I realized that I'm disappointed that I'm working from home today and don't get a change of scenery. BUT. This week, I submit a (major for me) grant proposal and a book chapter. And then I am not-working long enough that my brain goes back to being useful!
Thanks for starting a Monday rant. I need non-grant-related human interaction! And ranting! And alcohol! Oh wait...10 am might be too early...

My weekend was busy. I'm really tired and hoping to go to bed early tonight.
I bought myself a new bag to use at work. No crumbs, kid prints, toys or milk allowed. The most expensive purse I've ever bought. I got a great deal on it and I love it to pieces.
Last night I was putting up some shelves. I was having a Hell of a time with it. I was moving a shelf, smacked myself in the face and split my lip. I was thisclose to tears and H brought my new purse over, shoved it infront of my face and shouted "does this make you feel better!".
I'm sitting here in pain because of my screwed-up shoulder and a possible UTI.
I don't really have much on deck this week. Dinner date on Thursday night. Woo!
ETA: I saw on FB that one of my best friends from high school/college got married. I didn't even know she was engaged. It made me sad that I've been so out of the loop. I kinda hate that if I don't check FB, I miss the big announcements. Bring back personal interactions!
This weekend was fun. I celebrated my friends 30th birthday. I ate way to much. Sunday was lazy and I cleaned the house and laid around. It was lovely.

PS, I think I need to see a picture of this new bag...
My weekend wasn't too bad. We went bowling on Friday night with some friends. H went shooting again on Sunday, so I had a big block of time to myself when DS went down for a nap. That was exquisite! And when DS woke up we got the rest of his valentines painted for his friends at "school". Now I just have to varnish them and write names on em! (I may or may not have purchased about 10 extras so I could keep some too)
Today or tomorrow we should find out about H's possible new job. I find myself getting really excited about it, but I'm trying to keep those emotions in check because we're just not sure what's going to happen yet...
Not much happened this weekend. Did some laundry (woo), cleaned up, made a big batch of soup and some cookies. Watched the snowfall. Took a nap. Not a lot going on this week. Valentine's day has never been much of a deal for us so if H doesn't work late I might make a nicer dinner than boxed mac & cheese.
After I had a breakdown about not being able to sleep for more than 3 hours at a time, I quit my second job this weekend. Circumstances have changed, and I don't need to kill myself for the 7-8 weeks I'll still be living here. I needed time to apply for jobs and organize a move and, well, sleep. :-) A huge weight was lifted.

PS, that IS a great bag!
Muddled, I'm working on it. Pictures have been a little difficult since my phone's camera sucks and DS broke my regular camera on Christmas... I'll see if any of the phone pictures are post-worthy.
We got a new bed this weekend. Hooray! It's being delivered tomorrow. I also ran 7 miles in my old beat up sneakers, testing a theory that my new ones w/ support were causing me pain.
This week is our valentine bark & wine on Thursday. I can't wait.
