Today I woke up and heard a weird noise. I was so happy to discover it was a leak and not a mouse in my apartment! Now I'm waiting to hear back from my landlord about whether I need to stay home and wait for him or a plumber to come. I'm thinking no and will likely go to work if I don't hear back in an hour.
Looks like I may be taking XH to court over the childcare costs. He's refusing to pay his half and says it's "a matter of interpretation". I'm not understanding how something that is written out in black and white can be interpreted any differently. He's also pulling the "you got the school district YOU wanted", "I drive 18 miles round trip to take DDs to school and I don't ask you for mileage", "I flex my schedule so DDs don't have to go to after-school on my days, which saves YOU money".
First off, we BOTH wanted the girls in this SD. We originally looked for houses in this are but couldn't afford anything so we widened our search. But the plan was to look here again before our kids started school. 2nd, he wanted 50/50 custody. Driving them to and from school is his obligation as a parent. Therefore he alone eats that cost. Third, that's great that he can flex his work time. I can't. So, they have to go to the after-school program. I have no other options.
I emailed my attorney to confirm I was correct before emailing XH back and even he said XH was being cheap and trying to get out of paying for something he's legally required to pay. So, I gave XH until the end of the month. I'm not sitting in this, so if I don't get the money by then, off to court we go.

I just got a small promotion at work, which requires 3 weeks of training. I typically work nights 1:30-10pm, and this 10-6:30 training is reeeaaaaally hitting my sleep schedule hard since I've been going to bed at the same time as normal.

I think I have reached rock bottom with this pregnancy nausea thing - just found myself in the McD's drive thru at the end of my street. We've lived here 6 months and I've never been there but an egg and cheese bagel from there was the only thing that would do. Also, I am driving to work on fumes because I didn't have time to get gas and McD's. Living dangerously yo.

Good morning, ladies!
I found out yesterday I'm moving to a different spot at work but no one told me why. We do have to share desks with the second shift people and the lady I share with has such severe germ phobia that she uses her own chair so maybe that's it? But it's still kinda weird to just randomly displace someone.
Long day for me. I have to work at the church tonight. . Boo.
"This prick is asking for someone here to bring him to task Somebody give me some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him I'll pull the trigger on it, someone load the gun and cock it While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket."
It's hump day, pay day and I get my new kitchen table day! Humped last night so no humping today!!
Working on picking out a new area rug for my living room. I moved into my new house in August and I need so much furniture and decor! Trying to take it one step at a time! It's overwhelming sometimes though
Happy Hump Day! I would love to have someone to hump...for now I just need to rely on my vibrator, which reminds me that I've run one completely out of batteries and need to restock.
My friend J is so stinking sweet. He texted yesterday and asked if I was at work. I said "yes". He brought by a bottle of wine and the sweetest note. I just about cried!
You might have already answered and I'm far behind...
We have plans Saturday night.
That's good. I know you were quite torn about it. Lately I've been on this kick of just living in the moment and I was rooting for you to go hang out with him.
Our busy season is in full effect here. Today is going to be quiet, but steady.
DS#2 is fully in the "I don't wanna!" phase and it suuuucks. I know he'll get through it, but we're going to be in time-out/fun squelch mode for a while.
i was so productive yesterday and slept great last night under my new bedding set. i've been saving for it and was so excited to see it on my bed! makes me feel like a grown up lady

Livin' on the edge.....that nausea will pass. Promise.
I got a call this morning for a phone interview for a job I would LOVE to get. It's a training position at the university in my town, and my former coworker's husband is the hiring manager. My coworker has told me lots of positive things about his job over the years, and it sounds like a ton of fun. Plus the university is a short commute and has great benefits. And I loved working in training - it was the best 1.5 working years of my life and I'd love to get back to it. Fingers and toes crossed that they like me.
It also sounds likely that my temporary job will lead to a full time job in a different position at this company soon. I think I would enjoy training more than the job I'd end up with here, but it's nice to think I might have options soon. Even if the training job doesn't work out, I could be happy working the other job (I think).
Now I just hope one of them hires me before Thanksgiving so I don't end up with unpaid leave during the holidays.
I worked my PT job in full last night. I am sore. I guess it's good to get out of the house, make very little money, and sweat in the sauna of steaming clothing in the dream steamer lol. Maybe it will help me lose weight. Plus I don't fit in that store's clothing, except a few XL tops, and it'll motivate me to want to wear their beautiful things.
Of course comments are flying at me at work today about how tired I look. Nice co-workers I have. Coffee and a bagel were my saviors today.
Class tonight, picking up S, and crashing hard. I'm really looking towards the weekend, spending some time out with RR, and just being able to relax a little.

BF was stressing out last night about his job and some other things that are stressing him out. I hope he feels better. He is out of town today. He has to travel a lot for work right now and he is also moving soon so he got kind of anxious about the stuff he needs to do.
As for humping, there was a lot of that over the weekend in various positions but it's going to be like a week and a half before anything exciting happens again due to schedules.
I'm thinking about going back to work at Ulta for the holidays. I really loved working there, and the manager who could never schedule me correctly is gone. Plus, extra money is always nice...and a discount on makeup. There really are no cons!

Do what you gotta do to get through the nausea! I hope it passes soon for you.
I'm in such a funk this week. This is the worst week I've had since my stbx kicked me out. Blergh. I have plans to work out with a friend tonight. And we are going to do something Friday too. So hopefully these things will help me a little

I'm crazy busy this week, which is nice but come Monday I'm going to have practically NOTHING to do.
I have a shipment (like 6 pairs) of shoes getting delivered tomorrow and then a shipment (3 sweaters and a pair of jeans from AE) getting delivered on Friday. I'm really excited and hope that I like it.

I came home on Monday to a package that I legit didn't know what it was...until I opened and found my 4 pairs of AE leggings! Doh. #OnlineShopperProblems
