I thought I had appendicitis last night, and was trying to figure out who to call to take DS if H had to take me to the hospital. Ugh. I feel fine this morning, but maybe I should talk to these people in case that ever does happen.
I had a dream last night that DS started walking. IRL, he is very close. I think he'll be walking before 10 months, which is just a couple weeks from now. 11 months at the latest.
We are going to my parents house for my birthday cake today, and then I am going to go to the gym to counteract at least some of the cake I ate. My mom is getting on my last nerve because she feels the need to know everyone's business, and be right bout everything.
Going to a friend's to watch bears game and eat brisket DH smoked overnight. I probably should drink a lot of water to counteract the cheap wedding wine I drank too much of last night.

We got to go to our new house last night because the sellers have finally moved out. It's so clean! I was very impressed. I'm going to bleach/sanitize the crap out of it but the house is in great condition. They didn't bust any of my walls moving furniture or anything!

the radio played the gordon lightfoot song about the edmund fitzgerald this morning because today is the anniversary. now i cant get it out of my head. also, gitchee gummee (sp?) always makes me think of a subpar summer camp for fat kids.
H has had a mancold for about 2 weeks now, but he is super busy at work so isn't getting enough rest and the cold isn't going away. Now I'm starting to get it.
I ordered our holiday cards last night! I am usually really behind and don't get them out before Christmas, but they'll be here before Thanksgiving so I hope to have them in the mail by December 1.

H and I had a lovely day yesterday. It's rare that we have a day off work together. We actually woke up pretty early, went grocery shopping, came home and had brunch, had sex, and then a nap, did our own thing for a little bit and then went out for dinner, and came home and watched Horrible Bosses on Netflix (I had never seen it. It was hilarious!) I was asleep by 10 last night and up by 7:30 this morning. H is still sleeping and I'm just lounging around. It's lovely!
I haven't even thought about getting a family photo for Christmas cards yet. Guess I now have a really good excuse for going to the mall this afternoon since the boys will need something new to wear and the Penny's studio is right there. If I just happen to stop by Sephora while we're doing those things, well, it happens.
We got some large storage containers that were on clearance bc they here Halloween colored so I organized and transfered DSs old clothes from old diaper boxes to these. That was my Saturday night. It feels so good. I keep looking at them abd take a deep breathe of accomplishment. Behold, my Saturday night.....
We are supposed to take L to the zoo today, but she is on a tear this morning. So, I'm really second-guessing that. Which sucks, because *I* wanted to go to the zoo.

Now it's in my head too! Jerk
Well if I'm going to be consistent on here, I need to continue to be a jerk. lol
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead When the skies of November turn gloomy...

My mom is just so awful these days. Yesterday, she lost it and said that she was no longer considering herself our mother. Oooookkkkk. I'm upset but mostly because DD heard her, and was crying later because "did this mean she no longer had a grandmother?" As such, we're making other plans for Thanksgiving. This is all really just too much to deal with.
@jezebel I'd still go to the zoo, outside activity and walking will tire her out and help the mood. I would not allow any extras like fun treats or souvenirs if her behavior is poor. I hate missing out on stuff, so I retool my threats "there will be NO hot pretzels at the zoo if you continue to behave this way"
I just picked her up and asked if she still wanted to go to the zoo. When she said 'yeah' I told her she needed to calm down or we couldn't go. It somehow worked- we'll see how long it lasts. She's sitting quietly on the dog bed playing with my phone now. lol
I do agree that she'll probably shape up once we're out having fun. I hope.
