We're having a lazy morning over here. I'm waiting for it to dry out a bit and then we'll take Miss Betty to the park to play. H is going to the Arsenal game today, so it's just be me and Betty this afternoon. I need to do some research on more activities to do with H's nieces when they get here next week.
I'm irritated with H right now because I woke up at 6:30 yesterday with Em so that he could sleep in and this morning he didn't offer to do the same for me. I ended up getting up at 7 with her today as well. So now I'm putting dishes away as loudly as possible. Haha.
His Dad is in town this week. They aren't close and I hardly know him. He's staying at H's sister's house so we won't see him until later today. I'm supposed to be making dinner for the whole gang tonight and H's sister and her kids are SUPER PICKY. It's ridiculous. I hate cooking for them because they never like what I make. But I don't really give a fukc anymore. I'm making mocha rubbed pot roast with pureed sweet potatoes and grilled asparagus with garlic lemon aioli. It's whole 30 compliant and delicious. She can bring processed chicken nuggets, cheese sticks, and tangerines packed in sugary syrup for her kids.

ilovebed - how frustrating. I don't eat meat and what you're making sounds delicious!
Leaving in about 30 minutes for two more lacrosse games for E today. They're in Issaquah and are right next to Duthie Hill, so we're going to all go mountain biking with a few other families for a bit after the games. Then need to rush back for P's lacrosse practice in Magnolia at 4pm this afternoon.
This evening some friends are coming by to drop off some ahi that the guys and kids caught deep sea fishing in Mexico. Even though they went out as a group and all caught it, I wasn't expecting them to give us some since they packed it and brought it back. Ready for ahi!
Good afternoon. We went out to get doughnuts and coffee this morning before stopping to see my dad for a few. Now we get to go out and build an extension fence for the garden so I can plant some of my seed starts that are getting to big. I think H is also going to make a temp green house top that we can easily put on and take off for night time. Should be interesting.
Had a nice time taking MIL to Ulta to pick out the perfect turquoise nail polish (side note: I effing dislike the Southcenter Ulta - they're remodeling so the premium side is like 1/2 the products and of course, they were out of the 1 Butter color I wanted MIL to see because they are ALWAYS out of whatever I specifically go to get. And more than half the people are rather rude.) We grabbed lunch as we still had time then had our lovely pricey pedicures with long leg & foot massages & paraffin dips. I then came home and had a freak out as apparently we're having the reception after FIL's service at my house and in addition to the cleaning we have to do, I just keep seeing how I don't have the house decorated and the front walk is all weeds and...etc. We went out to dinner at Torero's.
Today I had hoped to get my haircut but there weren't any open appointments. I'm going to have to take time off work because I can't handle how scraggy it is but he works only a few days a week now as he's a manager. H is cleaning the kitchen and then going to do yardwork. I need to do my homework and then probably help with the house but I feel like I just haven't had a day to relax at all. Maybe I'll do some yardwork, too. AF is delayed from all the stress and I'm all cranky & anxious and melty.
no official doctor update but from what I can tell I think things are still good. He's a little small but looks to be consistent with the other ultrasounds I had early on. So i'm not worried. My next Dr apt isn't until next week so will know more then
I just keep seeing how I don't have the house decorated and the front walk is all weeds and...etc.
I know it's worrying you, but to everyone else it's totally fine!
And if you're really really stressing, can you hire someone to help you with the yard this one time
Nah, because its just stupid stuff that's bothering me. Our front walk was only ever sorta gravel so its weeded itself in I'm NOT going to be crazy and worry about picking out paving stones, etc!! Or maybe not even worry about new gravel on it.

Evening! Spent the day with BF and am home now doing laundry. We spent the weekend watching a bunch of Marvel movies. We only have the Avengers and the second Thor movie left to watch before we go see Age of Ultron on Sunday.
Not much else going on, have a great night everyone!
