We're at a wedding where we don't know anyone else (unless you count the people I don't want to see from HS) and dinner ended an hour ago but everyone is just sitting around. I'm bored.
In good news, the in-laws moved us to the guest room in the basement instead of the one right next to their room. So they hear less
My sister messaged me about how when my niece was born she was depressed and gathered all her pills to commit suicide. She posted a FB status hinting at her plans and set a time limit for ten minutes to see if anyone would say someone. At nine minutes, I posted that I loved her and asked if she was ok.
She then put the pills away and decided to live. My niece is 3 and I never knew this before. I cried when I read that message.

We bought our dining room table today. I totally second-guessed myself leaving because we've never spent this much on any type of furniture, and then H freaked me out by saying it was more "traditional" than "contemporary". It's a nice, solid table, though, and we rationalized it by saying we will buy all the rest of our furniture on sale. LOL.
H just got home yesterday and I got my period today. Boo.
We also visited our house - everything is painted, wood flooring is almost all in, and our cupboards, counters, and faucets are in everywhere. Our kitchen looks GREAT! I'm really happy with all our finishes.
We took the kids to the beach today and H took the kids out on the water in his kayak.
This evening I weeded and weeded. I am using a pitchfork to expose roots and rocks. The kids were bugging me so much while I was out there. I also cut down a bunch of smaller trees.

I'm organizing everything for my trip back home in October. I have my 10yr reunion and my BFF's wedding I'm in. Because both trips are two weeks between each other, we were going to leave our bird with my Mom to hang out with her two birds and pick him up during our last trip. I just realized today that if my H gets one out of the two jobs that he is interviewing for, there is a possibility I will be going OOT by myself because he will be on probation.
So that means that I will have to fly and rent a car for both trips. (We originally planned to drive) Plus I won't have my H or my bird with me. Well that sucks.
I baked dd's bday cake earlier and now we're all watching Peter Rabbit before the kids go to bed. After that decorating the cake and drinking something rum-based.
I'm eating greek yogurt and pb2 for dinner. I have no desire to eat when I get home from work. I'm under 150 lbs for the first time in 3 years. My kitchen manager walked out on the job at 11 o'clock this morning. I don't know if he's coming back.

there is a small grocery store nearby that has one of the birds below inside. He is so silly and has so much personality. I wonder what he is trying to indicate by hanging upside down with one leg kinda sticking out. I kinda want a bird like this. But they are hella loud and I have no clue how to care for a bird.

I have been drinking beer slowly almost all day. We powered through 4 episodes of Defiance and there are two more and I'm damn near ready to kill someone until I get to watch them. I hate when I do this. BUT I NEED TO SEE THEM
Blah. My dad came to visit last night. He had one too many and accidentally let slip that my mom is seeking an annulment for their 24 year marriage. I'm okay that they are divorced, and I know that I shouldn't care that she wants an annulment, but I do.

I'm sorry. That really sucks. DH's parents are beginning a separation after 28 years. It's crazy to think about.
How does an annulment work after that length of time?

My cousins' parents were married a much shorter period of time but also had an annulment after kids. It really hurt the kids, as I'm sure it does you, to basically try and say the marriage that they were a product of never happened. Are you in a place where you could tell your mom how you feel?
I think I got a peek at a 3 yr old in DS today. He was horrible. Would NOT listen and just did his own thing even though we took him to the water park AND the playground to wear his ass out. I think H and I are the only ones exhausted.
Dh drove 6 hours this morning to do one of those Tough Mudder races with a buddy, and is now driving 6 hours home. He was not psyched to go - that's a lot of effing driving in one day - but he'd promised his buddy he'd do it. He called awhile ago, on his way home, and said he wished he'd been able to fit in a workout today because the race was really easy. He was also disappointed that it wasn't really a race. LOL
I took the kids out for frozen custard tonight and now I'm drinking wine. So I win the fitness game today.

This is so weird. What on earth would she cite as grounds??
She's saying she was forced to get married under duress. I'm quite positive this wasn't true, but my mom is excellent at rewriting history.
Pumping hurts so bad. I'm in pain even in between sessions, but no other signs that point to something serious.
I'm having a beer for the first time in 10 months!
I'm sorry... do you have the right size shields? I don't know if I'm naming the right part...the one that goes on the breast? I was using one that was too big and it hurt until I switched. Or maybe a plugged duct the pump isn't reaching? I hope it gets better soon...

Yes, that's exactly how it feels. And no, I can't tell my mom. I'm really not supposed to know. Dad would never have said anything if it hadn't been for the 4th beer.
