Also, my SIL just texted me a pic of her baby and said "Emma is wearing a special shirt today!" I DIED thinking it could be a big sister shirt. It was an "I love my aunt" shirt. Pregnancy has taken over my brain!
I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon. I'm irrationally scared/excited to see the scale. I want the validation that I've lost the weight I think I have this summer, but I'm scared it won't match up to my scale at home and it'll turn out I've deluded myself.
College job postings are popping up again and I'm really afraid I won't get a job this year. I'm tempted to tell DH to just not tell anyone where I've applied or who calls me back because I don't want to have to deal with telling people when I get rejected.

I'm being moved from my private office at work to a row of desks on a new floor. I get to sit directly in front of the Owners desk. With my boss directly in front of me. I'm in the middle of the worst sandwich every created....
I just ate way to many Sandie's Pecan cookies.
Alexis learned to climb on the couches. She has been destroying EVERYTHING!

I'm feeling butthurt today. There are only 3 other moms of young kids that work with me. I'm not that close with them (they are in another dept, sorta, but we all work together), but lately I've been making more of an attempt to be chatty with them about kids and such.
I was using the microwave near one of their desks and noticed that they have a playdate scheduled for the three of them to get together in a few weeks. I wouldn't really even expect them to invite me, I guess. Either way, sad panda.

katfco, I hope you get good news on the scale AND the job front!
I just ate an obscene amount of peanut m&m's from my freezer. I disgust myself, but I couldn't stop.
My boobs are so, so, so big. I really don't like them at all. They're just inappropriate at this point. I should be in napping with my child before I regret it, but here I sit.
I am working from home and had to be on a support call for almost TWO HOURS which sucked. And they didn't fix anything so I did 2 hours yesterday, 2 today and now they want me to reboot the server and have a call again tomorrow. aaaaaahhhhh
Today I ate potato chips, then eggs & toast, then potato chips, then a granola bar, then crackers and grapes, then a cinnamon raisin bagel. I need to stop eating now. I irrationally dislike afternoon doctor appointments due to the weighing with belly full of food thing. I know they won't judge me for gaining several pounds so soon but still.
I'm so tired and lethargic! it never goes away. neveerrrrrrrrr. If I weren't pregnant my exhaustion and apathy towards life would have me looking for a psychiatric consult I think.

That sounds soooo awful. Is this a permenant thing? I hope so for your sake. I think that would almost make me want to quit my job.
I have been so bloody busy with work lately, my probing is suffering. *sigh*
H has basically been working 2 jobs lately and it sucks. Yes, we could really use the extra money, but Owen and I hardly see him. Most days he's gone before I get Owen up and home loooong after he's in bed. Do not like.

It is permanent... My boss was suppose to move to the office next to me because we work together a lot.(We do all the planning/scheduling for the company AND I was just made project lead for a new government project) .I think this is punishment for him taking his sweet ass time moving. So now we are both punished with being in the same room as the Owner, Head of Research & Development and a bunch of other extremely high up people... Ughh. The only plus side is I will be alone 5am-8:30ish because of my hours..
We found out two nights ago that SIL is pregnant with her 2nd so she must be due in April or May! She hasn't been to the doctor yet so it's still really early. My nephew will be ~3.5 when his younger sibling is born. We're hoping for a girl, though nephew says he wants a little brother.
Confession: I really wish I were already pregnant and further along than SIL. They had the first grandchild even though they're younger and set the precedent for what my ILs expect. And now they'll have two first. I'm much more uptight about G whereas they're more relaxed parents and it's caused some IL drama when I object to things they're used to with nephew (not cutting grapes, them babysitting nephew for an entire long weekend, and now being super careful about G's allergies). I really WANT to be excited for her but right now I'm having a hard time not feeling jealous.
I hate my house beyond control. I briefly mentioned our basement flooded with our heavy rains in the last few weeks. Well now our pipes backed up and got the same exact room wet again! I think that part of our basement has been submerged or wet maybe 6 times in 1 month. We are still waiting on our home owners claim....so at least we haven't "fixed" anything yet. My mom just went back to WI after spending 9 days with us......it sucks, I miss her and I just we lived closer. I am getting really impatient with finding out if DH will get an interview for a job he'd be perfect for. Everyday that he calls me at work I alway think he's going to tell me he has an interview. This has yet to happen. Clearly I'm in a bad mood and a real drag.
Publix has their seasonal pumpkin ice cream out which has bits of pie crust in it and I have been eating a big bowl every night.
I have a list of things to do at work right now that I have no desire to do. But if I don't do it now then I have to work after L goes to bed which sucks.I wish I wasn't so damn lazy.

Thanks! I have had one school ask for more documents and say they're contacting my references, so for one of them, I've made the next round. I keep telling myself not to get excited, but this one would be almost perfect, because it's only 30 minutes from here, and 5 minutes from DH's work, so he'd get to keep his job. We wouldn't be any closer to families, but we'd be financially comfortable and both working on our careers for the first time ever.

we have some of the same issues with my IL's.
I'm sorry IL drama is no fun. I've at least learned to mostly not complain to DH about it -- he gets really sensitive really quickly then goes around for weeks saying I hate his family. Sigh. They're good people, I just have to keep reminding myself sometimes.
I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon. I'm irrationally scared/excited to see the scale. I want the validation that I've lost the weight I think I have this summer, but I'm scared it won't match up to my scale at home and it'll turn out I've deluded myself.
College job postings are popping up again and I'm really afraid I won't get a job this year. I'm tempted to tell DH to just not tell anyone where I've applied or who calls me back because I don't want to have to deal with telling people when I get rejected.
I ate two pieces of pizza and it did bad things to me. I'm supposed to go grocery shopping, but now I got the poops. I don't know if I would rather be constipated or have the poops.

Luckily we live in different states. Just when we are around each other it's nonstop. They give him dairy and try to give him things I wouldn't. They tried giving him tea and I said no and I got how they give it to my nephew that's 6 months younger than William and his parents are okay with it.

I don't think that's a bad request to keep your job search news in your family. Good luck!
