I feel like this is all I post about, but it's the only remotely interesting thing in my life right now that I can post about. I'll at least move it to randoms.
I hung my art finally, and I got my yellow shelf! I also got a bed, but the mattress doesn't come till tomorrow, so a bare bed frame isn't all that interesting to PIP.
I have to admit, whenever you post updates/pics, I fantasize a little about having my own cute little apartment that is just MY space that I don't have to share or consult with anyone about. Keep posting so I can live vicariously through you!

My parents are coming tomorrow and the spare room is wall to wall boxes, I may have to put them on an air mattress. I'm ridiculously excited about helping my dad install linoleum and a toilet, I love being handy. I won't have Internet until next Wednesday, despite pulling the "widow card," and crying on the phone. There will be a lot of Starbucks wi fi in my future since I have assignments due.
I have a new nephew! I can't wait to go get my hands on him this afternoon after work.
We have so much going on this weekend but it's all fun stuff and I'm excited. I'm looking forward to a weekend with my family and friends, food and drinks.
We found out yesterday that our middle school will be opening two days late due to construction delays. This means that we will have 3 different first days of school this year between all the kids. The middle schoolers are enjoying teasing the high schoolers about the fact that they get to stay in bed for 2 extra days while they get up and go to school and the high schoolers are enjoying throwing back that their summer vacation will start 2 days sooner.
I am so excited that my older sons are going to their grandma's house this weekend. I love them and having them home can be so helpful but I am over it. The bickering and bugging each other is just driving me crazy!
Also, and I dunno if this should go in a flameful, but I'm feeling a bit nervous about my date because I feel like he's "out of my league". His dad is a dentist, and his parents are on the board of a sailing club. They have a boat and he sails all the time. He's on the sailing team. He works as an engineer. He's funny.
I just go to school. lol
Girl, with 2.5 blowjobs per day, literally no one is out of your league.
I'm typing too fast today for google docs to keep up on the screen and it is driving me nuts. I keep having to pause to wait to see what I typed. Stupid network.
Hanging out in a cute coffee shop in downtown Roanoke while DH has his interview. It was a bit of a chaotic morning, so I hold it's going well for him! It's been an hour so far & I haven't heard from him. I'm taking that as a good sign.

I can apply for citizenship in two days and I'm not sure how I feel about it. Like, I'm going to end up doing it if only to make things easier, be able to vote, and not limit myself on employment opportunities, but it makes me sad that I probably won't ever move back to Canada.

Today is H & my 5 year anniversary and I'm being uncharacteristically mushy about it. He really is awesome. Now I'm going to AW a couple wedding pictures. I also sent him our first dance song. I'm just having one of those days where I'm stopping to appreciate how lucky I am.
we are leaving to go camping in 2 hours. My DD just came downstairs in tears because she started her period (3rd one) and is having bad cramps. I feel so bad for her and don't know if we should cancel the trip. It's only a 2 day trip but it is our favorite place to camp, right on Lake Michigan. This is something she will have to deal with for the next 30 years, so I don't want to give her the impression that you can just sit in your bedroom and sulk one week every month, but on the other hand, I don't know how much fun she will have if her cramps are really bad. I gave her an Advil and will see how she's doing in a little while.

Poor girl
Stop by the drugstore to get some of the thermacare heat wraps for backs, they work really well for period cramps when you don't have a regular heating pad (or anywhere to plug one in).
K has his 2 year check-up today...which means shots. He also has this bump near his belly button that started out looking like a pimple but it's gotten pretty big in the last month and I'm fairly certain it isn't a pimple so I'm internally freaking out about what it might be. I have not Googled for fear of what I'll find. I do plan to ask the pedi today what he thinks about it.
It's so dreary and cloudy here today. I'm not ready for fall yet!

My DD has been sick for 2 weeks straight with a horrible cough and NO ONE in the house has slept through the night. My back is killing me from sleeping in her bed to calm her down when she gets up with another attack. It's been a foggy 2 weeks for everyone and more importantly I feel terrible for her.
I finally took her back into the doc and they said she has bronchitis. This would have been good to know when I brought her in last week! She's been on the antibiotic for ONE DAY and she finally slept all night without a cough attack and I got to sleep in my cozy bed.
As some of you might remember I have been trying to help my dad pick out a ring for my mom. I guess he went ahead and got one. He showed me hte ring but he was like,
"yeah but I got a bigger one that was $7000. I only paid $3800 though."
I was like how in the hell did you do that.
"Eddy, I am a farmer. All I do all day is try to get prices down."
I am seriously impressed. I mean I know there is wiggle room, but damn 3K is balla style.
And the ring is beautiful. My mom can return it if she doesn't like it, but she will love it.
