I really need to stay away from Rugs USA. They're having a Columbus Day Sale where most rugs are 65% off. I really need a new rug for the living room (ours is a cheapie that keeps getting crunched up under our coffee table), but we don't need to drop 200 bucks on a rug now either. But it's so tempting!
I got some new Green Mountain K Cups this weekend--Pumpkin Spice. Paired with vanilla creamer, it's quite tasty. The pumpkin is not overpowering.
I really didn't need to know about the Rugs USA sale, we need a new, huge rug for our LR too, and that is way too tempting.
I didn't want to wear tights with boots and a skirt today, so I just shaved my knees and a few inches on either side this morning.
Horrible commute this morning- flooding on the road I'm on when it's still dark out, crash right at the merge for my entrance onto the expressway, still in a temp office and so have to hike 3/4 of a mile from my parking spot to there. It's fine on a nice day, but miserable in a windy downpour.
ETA: Damn it, I looked at Rugs USA against my better judgement and there's a 8'3"x11' rug that I love that's only $230 with the 65% off. I don't think I can not buy it.
Fall colds have hit my twins. Both of them. At the same time. Seemingly overnight.
There is not enough coffee in the world to get me through today. I need toothpicks to keep my eyelids open. One kid would settle, and the other would be up. Then both would be up. Then one, then the other. All night long.
As a side note, HGTV doesn't go to infomercials until 4am, so that was good.
I told someone at my H's church group that I thought would be cool that I am joining a different church. She seemed okay-ish about it when I told her. But then last night when I got home she texted about how she was praying for me. It seemed really judgey like I needed prayer because I'm a fucking heathen or something. I knew this was a bad idea but I went against my better judgment. Now I'm worried she's going to tell other people and I'm going to be getting multiple "praying for you" texts.
I ordered new iPhones for H and me 2 days ago. They were showing a ship date of October (no specific day). I ordered one to ship to me, then when I ordered h's I was able to select Pick Up In Store. So he got his yesterday. I cancelled mine so I could reorder with Pick Up and they aren't currently available at ANY NY stores.
My current phone is fine. I know this is not a big deal. I can wait and get it shipped. But I'm frustrated and now I have seen H's I want mine now. I'm going to try again tonight. It seems there is about a 5 minute window a day when you can order for pickup if you are quick enough.
Ugh, I hate that kind of stuff wambam I'll be praying for you
We have our first parent/teacher conference with Hart's preschool teacher today. I'm nervous. Is my child a total heathen? Is he the smelly kid in class? Is he finger painting inside the lines? So much pressure
I've had just a few hours of sleep for the second night in a row and I'm spent. I'm just overwhelmed with work and life and home and thinking about exSO when I should already be over it and I really just want to cry. In fact, I have. Many times this week. I need a break. I think I'm going to take Friday afternoon off.
I can deal with the cool weather, but can the rain and clouds go the fuck away for a bit? I can't handle a week of rain/dark skies. It's killing my ability to get out of bed in teh morning and giving me a general IDGAF about everything. I think I need a happy light.
At least today is my Friday! DH and I get to go to a little awards ceremony tomorrow where he's presented his architecture license certificate for his wall. He's being all nerdy excited because the keynote speaker/presenter is the state's Lt. Governor, who is (was?) an architect.

I can't seem to do anything right with DD's teacher. I'm 30 and feel like I'm failing kindergarten. I took DS for a haircut yesterday so he'd look all handsome for thanksgiving. He wouldn't sit still and now has the worst fucking haircut I've ever seen. Blerg.

I'm so tired today. I was at the hospital with my sister until late, and couldn't sleep worth shit when I got home. She almost cut her thumb off while splitting wood, and her husband was at work.Thankfully it's fine, but man that was an intense drive.
I had snake bite piercings done yesterday, and my 2 y/o keeps staring at them and whispering "Ow" and then trying to kiss them better. It's the sweetest thing ever.
I had really weird, really vivid dreams last night. I also had terrible, awful, nasty night sweats. Gross. Nothing like waking up cold and wet.
My friend and I are trying the Wicked ticket lottery tonight. I really hope our names get called! I've seen it and love it, but she hasn't seen it yet.
I think I feel a nasty cold coming on. It's been going around the office.
I used a bottle of flavored creamer in an insanely quick time ? I'm telling myself they just don't sell sizes like they used to?!? Lol I have a bad addiction to flavored creamers.

I'm pretty sure this shit will eventually kill me. I go through a sick amount every week.
Oh for sure this is what will kill me. Lol I can't even imagine what is really in the creamers. But I can't quit 'em. Lol

A giant bottle and a half per week is totally normal, riiiiight?
I haven't been ovulating for months. Last time I got pregnant, I had taken this herbal supplement. I got pregnant two weeks after starting to take it. I was still skeptical, but starting taking it again last week and walla! Ovulating. Maybe there is something to this.
This probably would have been more appropriate for GetP, but I am just very excited about it! Those OPK sticks were really adding up.
Are you taking the Fertility Blend stuff? I was looking at it but wasn't sure...
Coworker is constantly bitching about something. She is currently bitching to our IT guy about dropped calls on her cell phone, which is not a company cell phone so IDK why she thinks he will care. Yesterday she was on the phone bitching about her son...loudly. I almost feel bad for the kid because she talks about him like he's an idiot (he's 18ish).
Andy's school puts pictures of the kids on each of their cubbies. They just took new pictures for fall: kids sitting with pumpkins. Most of the other kids' pictures are of the toddler sitting, distracted, not looking at the camera. None are smiling.
