If I didn't have to pay taxes I would feel good financially. I could hire someone to help me on a regular basis. Why can't the govt. see this and just cut me a break?
After having Indian food at my ILs last night, I decided I wanted more so I'm making slow cooker lamb curry. It smells so good right now. I can't wait.
My mom's condo is now listed and I'm really struggling. Really. It's super fresh all over again, but fresh with a clarity I didn't have before. It's real now.
My friends husband is really sick and it's bumming me out. She tries to put on a happy face through FB and stuff but when I asked how he was doing last night, she described his illness as 'daunting' ......It makes me so sad. They just retired from Minnesota to their dream home in Arizona.

So far on my spring Break, Lucy has has a snow day onMonday, school Tuesday, scheduled day off Wednesday and a God damn snow day today. I DEMAND A RECOUNT!
I have been up since 2AM. Why does my body hate sleep??? It extra sucks because I have to take one of the cats in for a wellness check and the appointment isn't until 6:30. I just want to go home at 2:30 and crash
I made an appointment for a new counselor for me and I go tomorrow. It's actually a big relief to have done that and hopefully it's even more of a relief to go and talk.

I am ticked off this morning. We have a mouse/mice in the house, it's been over a week now and yesterday I finally broke down and bought some mouse traps because I got tired of my H to do anything about it even though he said he would.. they didn't work but there were droppings all over the place. Ugh. So I said we need some other form of a trap because the one I bought obviously didn't work and he was like "eh, maybe we can try it one more time". I told him that i'd like for him to go purchase another one because I want to GET RID OF THEM, it's my 9th month of pregnancy and i shouldn't be the only one caring about this. He left pissed off.
We put an offer on a house yesterday. It's a multiple offer situation & I'm not optimistic, but yet I'm hopeful. Everything else has fallen together beautifully and it's a ton of strange coincidences that got us to this point. Now we wait...seller has until 5 PM tomorrow.
School and work both closed today. We anticipated this and went to the liquor store and grocery store last night for Baileys, scotch, beer, firewood, and the stuff for grilled cheese and tomato soup. I think we're set, lol.

Does someone have a cat you can borrow for a couple of days? Seriously. My parents borrow one of ours every winter for like a week. It seems to clear the problem right up.

We have a cat and when we were gone for one night he chased the mouse all over the house and got blood everywhere. (from mouse) I rather just use traps and not have him make a mess all over the place or eat a mouse and puke it up later. He keeps an eye during the day and they never come out, I guess they/it are coming out at night when he is not out.
The "lazy" girl at work is taking advantage of me & another new co-worker. She's decided she can push most of her closing duties on us, but doesn't check to see if we're working with anyone else first.
She just sent a crap ton of difficult entries to put together that is due by 2pm, AND we're expecting 5" of snow. What's that saying - procrastination on your part doesn't necessitate an emergency on mine? I want to yell that at her. Especially when I hear her chit chatting all day.
I was so tempted to take a snow day today. My boss even encouraged me yesterday to WFH today. But she is including me in a big meeting with her boss today and I have dinner plans with friends tonight, so I am headed in to the office. I did decide to take a later train than usual and it is incredible! I shoveled, then had time to relax with coffee before heading to the train. I wish I could get myself out of bed earlier in the mornings because I love having some me time at home before work. It starts my day on a more positive and happy note.
My random is that I went to Nordstroms yesterday and spent $150 on 2 bras. I am so cheap and I feel like it was so much $ to spend on that, but my boobs look great today.
I jacked up my computer somehow. I can't get it to go back to the live tiles. I can't get chrome to work AT ALL. I uninstalled and reinstalled it and it's still not working. I'm using explorer now and it feels like a different planet.
Ugh - yes and no.... getting it all in on time is more important. But her stuff is going at the bottom of my to do pile, and our boss will be aware of what happened.
DS is 8 and I can still see his clear as day. When I want to make him laugh, I'll just randomly make the face at him.
I don't work on Fridays and I accidentally signed the kids up for Kids Club next Friday (it's their spring break). I'm debating whether I should call and see if I can cancel their reservation or if I should keep it as a vacation day for me, lol. H is traveling Mon-Fri next week, so I might be ready for a break by then!
My baby is already 1 month old today. Wtf. I just had him, like, 4 days ago.
Sofia and theo woke up at 5 am. You guys, I got NO sleep last night. Then I told sofia to go back to bed because it's way too early, and she had the nerve to scream at ME.
Lol. Yesterday I took theo for his first real haircut. I've always just trimmed it at home because he can't sit still for even a second, but yesterday seemed like a good day for a haircut. I had the baby sleeping in the moby wrap, sofia was sitting in the chair playing on my phone, and things were going great at first. Then theo started to cry, then ilya, and it went downhill from there. But, at least now he doesn't look like a crazy bush kid.
