Ugh, too many feels for a Monday. Just dropped cousin off at the airport. I can believe she's actually moving home.my parents also made it safe yesterday. Heading in to work now.
Happy Monday everyone!
tacocat, good luck on your surgery today. Sending you lots of get well soon vibes!
Good luck today tacocat! I know you will do great and I'm sending lots of vibes for a quick recovery!
Hugs @uwhuskygirl!
I got maybe 2 hours of sleep last night. I finally called it quits and got up. I have a feeling today is going to drag but I really hope not. I have PT after work then I am going to just crash. H is off work now till Christmas so maybe dinner will magically be ready when I get home tonight
Thanks for the vibes ladies, I will take them. Heading to the hospital now. I didn't sleep well last night so I am feeling a but nauseated too. I am crossing all my crossables that I can go home tonight!
Hi everyone! Good morning! I'm alive. I was sick from like Friday the 5th through like the 9th, and then had to catch up at work. Which is why I've been MIA. I mailed my SS gift on Saturday. Post office was a zoo. That's what I get for sending so late.
I am so glad I have you guys to share stuff with. I'm horrible at keeping secrets. We are meeting with a loan officer tonight to explore our options in regards to refinancing our current home, and possibly pulling out money for our next home. Ekkk I'm excited.
We are also about 4 weeks away from our big trip. Trying to get things together has been a pain. I don't know if you guys remember but I'm an over packer for trips (last one was Vegas, I like my options). But I'm struggling with how to pack for a 21 day trip. So far I've been able to fit like 15 tops, 7 pairs of pants, and 5 dresses into a carry on size bag. But I also want like options for shoes and stuff...
Christmas shopping is not done yet. Which bothers me a bit. But we are gonna go tonight and get it done.

Good luck, tacocat - sending lots of vibes your way. Hugs, @uwhuskygirl
I slept way too much last night after being exhausted from the game yesterday - it was a very long day. But so much fun! I have a limited voice today, which should make things interesting.
H and I got a bunch of Christmas shopping done this weekend. We have a few more things to buy and we're good.
I have a short week this week and I'm off all week next week. Can't wait!

Good morning! Christmas shopping is about 80% completed. I'm still pretty stoked about the Hawks win yesterday, and I'm anxious for next Sunday's game. I have five days of PTO starting on Wednesday, so I'm looking forward to that
minion - I'm a master packer, let me know if you want help!
I've got a serious case of the Mondays. we slept in until 9am every day this weekend (so unheard of for us) and stayed out until 1:30 Saturday night (also unheard of).
made Christmas cookies last night, need to finish tonight so that way our housecleaner can really focus on the kitchen tomorrow!
Our staycation was fun. Man was downtown packed. The 49ers were staying at the hotel next to us. We saw their team buses come in on Friday night. I finally got a decent night sleep last night. J snores but he was snoring even louder this weekend because he has a head cold. Oh man. I thought he wasn't going to make it to Saturday morning.
Would just like today to be over. We are doing pizza for dinner (yay to 50% off for the seahawks win!)
We also had a sports celebrity filled Saturday. Marcus Trufant was at the table next to us at Rock Bottom. Saturday night coming back from the Nutcracker we are in the lobby and Ken Griffey Jr walks right by.

Sorry I've been MIA. Work and life has been cray cray. Not because anything has happened, just because it's been busy as we wrap up for the quarter.
I just got confirmation that I'll be going to Denmark for work next summer! I'm SO excited! I'm going to see if I can bring the family, too. I mean, we'd pay their own way, obviously. But it would be nice to have them there. Two weeks is a long time to be away from a baby as cute as mine
Had fun at my cousin's. Baby boy is growing so fast! Maddie is just too much adorable in one package. She's saying whole phrases now and kept saying "Auntie!" with a crisp T any time my attention wasn't on her for, like, 30 seconds They're seriously considering moving back to Utah though in March My cousin isn't happy on the island as she hasn't been able to make friends (too much of that Seattle "we should do something!" bs) and she's so isolated. Yet, rent is ridiculous now, even in Renton where they could be happy.
PT today, hoping it goes well. My neck has been giving me serious issue for a week now. Then I need to hit a store for work party present, the mall for my last mall present, and Target for a return if I'm feeling ok still.
I am keeping today simple with just doing a few things around the house and getting back into the week day swing of things. I made a dinner date with my bff for Friday and now I am just counting down until I can get some mexican food in my reach.
H is feeling better and back to work, they thankfully took the guys off 10's until after the first of the year so this will be a nice break. Not sure I could handle another week of that schedule.

Happy Monday!
I just purchased my Elf's gift... Amazon will be delivering it, and it'll be in 2 shipments (sorry!), so be on the lookout, Elf!
We're all recovering in our house, so finally getting back to normal. We had to take B to the pedi twice, but we found out he's freaking 17 pounds!! WTF, dude, no wonder my back hurts!
I need a shower...
We're going to attempt Snowflake Lane tonight, wish us luck!
Back at work. Feeling about 90% today. Hopefully I can just kick this shit soon. Xmas shopping done except d's stocking. Need to find him slippers and then go get him some edible and maybe a gift card for gamestop.
Good luck @volare! We're all hoping things go okay! get well soon, @aellasbeth and picksthemusic! I hate this year's cold-and-flu season
Happy monday folks! I just went on an Amazon bender and finished almost all our Christmas shopping! Now the only things left are extra gifts for babyniq, msniq, and mom.
We're headed to the zoo for some sort of Christmas thing they're doing tonight.

@volare - hope today goes well!
A whirlwind weekend. I want a break! Today is a good day though, we got bonuses at work and it's the biggest one I've seen in the 3 years I've been with them. I also got a nice little chat from the boss about enjoying working together. lol I'm sure the Christmas spirit in him will disappear soon.

Good luck @volare.
I'm here. H took bkb to the doctor today to make sure her caugh isn't something terrible and she's just got a cold so that's good. Looking forward to having a healthy household again.
