Is anyone around?

[jene]

I am on work travel and eating alone (boo). Who is here? Whatcha doin?

[bluedaisyus]

I'm here, just lounging on the couch with my cat on my lap so I thought I'd pop on.

I'm here! H is travelling so I am home alone. Sitting around in my PJs and socks and cuddling cats, installing iOS 8 on my phone and debating when I can go to bed. I also really want a glass of milk but the kitchen is far.

Where are you? Any chance you'll get to do anything fun? I only ever went to Burlington Vermont (great town) and Crown Point Indiana (worst town) on business travel.

I'm here, just hanging out in my PJs and watching master chef on hulu.

[labbie]

I'm here doing laundry and dishes, ugh.

I am in Sioux Falls, SD. It is ok, I lived here for 2 years after I graduated, so it is a bit of nostalgia for me. It is also the place where I met H, so lots of warm fuzzies. But I miss H and my baybeeeee

Chances on doing something fun: nope. I got in a couple of hours ago, and will head home tomorrow as soon as I am done with my site visit.

How is baby sessalee?
Football question: what do you think is going to happen with all the crazy shit that has happened in the NFL in the past couple of weeks?

Baby Sessalee is hiding behind her own placenta and I can't feel her very much which drives me crazy! I think she's shy, we'll work on that. She's up to 1lb already, 8 inches long. I can't believe I'm over half way done with being pregnant!!!

For football - the NFL is at a crossroads. If they continue to do nothing, or very little, fans and sponsors will continue to turn away. They have to be aggressive here. I'm a lifelong football fan, and even I am frustrated this year. It's hard to be a fan even.

Helloooo! H is putting DD down so I'm laying on the couch listening to him tell her a story. Sue the elephant has purple bows, FYI.

He has some work emails to finish and then we are catching up on old seasons of true blood. OMG not my favorite.

Whatcha eating?

[clseale]

I'm here. DH just went to bed, and I'm on the couch getting ready to watch Top Chef duels. I'm getting pretty sleepy, so I probably won't make it through the entire thing.

I'm so tired lately. Two weeks on vacation, then one weekend at home which was spent being sick & trying to get back into running. Saturday we have a 20 miler that starts at 5:30, then DH and I have to drive 4 hours south to go to our nieces' 3rd & 6th birthdays. We'll get back Sunday and then our entire Marketing department is going to a ranch in MT from Wed-Sun.

I just want an uninterrupted weekend at home.

I am exhausted on the couch while DD watches an episode of Arthur. Mother of the year!

I had a beet and goat cheese salad, gnocchi with chicken and wine. I am so stuffed

[Wines Not Whines]

I just got back from a yoga class, ate a very late dinner, and now I'm eating chocolate chips for dessert.

I had an anterior placenta with A as well. I think it was around 24 weeks that he just started going nuts and kicking like crazy.

That's what I keep hearing! I get a few kicks/day but nothing consistent. I can't wait to feel her more often. I love her so much. 

Thanks for the anecdote. It helps so much!

I'm recovering from the 18 miler I did after work and paying bills. FUN TIMES!!

Even though they lost their way in the last several seasons, the final season was actually really good. I liked watching the last season even though I thought they really jumped the shark last season.

our youngest dog is a rescue from there  He came from an illegal puppy mill that was seized by the state!  Rescues all stepped up to take the dogs & we were lucky enough to foster (and fail at fostering ) him!

i'm up - just baked cookies and surfing the net before bed!
