I'm hoping for a quiet day at work today. If it's nice out this afternoon I may try and work from my office's rooftop deck.
Tonight, meeting up with some friends for dinner and a production of Peter Pan in the park. I'm pretty excited for this one.
Happy Thursday all!
dana86, I've been meaning to ask, how is M's (it was M, wasn't it?) skin doing? How are you doing? Or maybe I'm remembering completely wrong that you guys had to go to a dermatologist for a while.
D and I have been working out some growing pains lately. Not quite matching in the BCBC dept and trying to get some debt pd down. Its not been easy lately. Thankfully my car is getting pd off in 3 months and our mattress will be pd off in dec and we can start contributing more to debt and savings....

Happy Thursday!
I'm working in my satellite clinic again today, but I'm managing two of the busiest doctors by myself... Well, one is present, the other is on vacation, but I'll still be getting a billion phone calls and a billion messages. On top of patients in clinic... I can't wait unitl I'm not tied to a doctor anymore!!

Good morning. Today should be pretty easy for me. I have a ton of applicants for the position I'm hiring, so hopefully I'll review more resume's today.
I need to find a new dress for a work event next month and there's one at Nordstrom that I love but it's not available in my size. Not even to have shipped. I hate when that happens.
On my way home I might stop at my sister's work. She finally moved out of my parents house but I have a feeling the people she's living with aren't a good influence. She's 27 and really has some growing up to do.
ETA: I totally forgot to tell you all that we're going to Cabo in April for H's big 4-0 birthday! SO excited! We're getting a group of friends to go. And until then I'm doing alllll the research! 1 week, all inclusive and sun! It can't get here fast enough!
I'm in a really good mood today. Things are going well for us. H spent most of the day yesterday cleaning and doing some small home improvement things. He posted his motorcycle on craigslist, and got a big box of stuff out for me to post on our local buy nothing group. YAY for making room for MiMi.
MiMi has been doing great. Kicking up a storm. She hasn't been keeping me up at night yet, so that is a plus.
I've given up on pants. I plan on wearing dresses and skirts until the fall. I have 2 maybe 3(H's cousin has decided she wants a PPD) weddings between week 36 and due date. I probably should wait to find a dress, since I have no idea how gigantic I'm going to get.

I have class today, not much else going on except for that. It's H'a day off and he actually isn't going into work! I am hoping to get some chores done around the house, it looks like a tornado hit right now.

Good Morning. I have a killer head ache today. I've had it since I woke up. I haven't taken anything for it yet, but I'm about to hit up the work first aid kit and get whatever they have in there.
Work today and then nothing this afternoon! Hooray! Tman does have, I think, three tests tomorrow, so we will do some studying, but hopefully that will go quickly so he can enjoy the nice day outside.
I'm chaperoning a field trip tomorrow and then again on Wednesday. It's a blessing to have the work flexibility to do these things.
Tman is so close to being done with school! He has 8 school days after today. Of those 8 days, he has one half day, a picnic, and two field trips. Sweet.
I was super tired this morning when I was trying to wake up so I woke up late but still managed to get to work and send out a report the senior manager by 7 am (bleh).
Then I was sitting here just enjoying my jerky and some weirdo walks up and was trying to make a joke about meat and mouths and I just stared at him until he left.
My plan is to keep taking FEMA training and go swimming after work!
minion did you post a recent bump pic and I missed it? Also I totally thought you said you had 2 or 3 PPDs to go to and I was like O.o really 3?!

I'm off today and bkb and I are headed to the park. We'll probably spend the rest of the afternoon playing in the backyard. So happy to not be at work on this beautiful day.

Things are starting to pick up again at work, hence my absence from the board. I'm also starting to freak out again about where we live and the housing market. I know we said we'd wait a couple of years, but we're getting priced out of even affordable neighborhoods, and I'm scared that's only going to get worse as time goes on.

Em turns 2 today! We're going to take an afternoon trip to the park. I was going to time it with a mom meetup this afternoon, but I don't know if we'll make it to that - I have a project that needs to be finished but no access to the data because of server issues, so that's a problem. I see a late night in my future.
Contractor said that he can't find anyone who will make just 2-3 replacement boxes for the kitchen cabinets (the original owner really messed up a few), so he suggested that we just buy all new cabinets. Seems wasteful, since most of them are in good condition, so now we're looking into building our own.
@uwhuskygirl we have a follow up for J in August for her vitiligo. We have gotten really lucky and so far no new spots have shown up besides the original one on her leg. I am trying to get some sun to that spot in hopes that it will help it regiment and bring some color back but being on the inside of her thigh makes it kind of hard.
Nothing too exciting today. I am working on talking myself up to my work out while the girls are bouncing off the walls. We will probably have to go out for a walk around the neighborhood or something before lunch. Then I have an ultrasound this afternoon for a weight check on baby. Hoping it will bring the news that I can stop doing the twice a week nst tests but I won't find out those results until my dr apt tomorrow. But at least I get to see baby again today

Yea they can be super weird about replacement cabinets
I would either look at ana white's website ana-white.com/
or contact a custom cabinet builder to see if they will build the ones you need replaced

Yes, I do intend to harass you until your due date about taking it easy.

Good luck at the weight check. Keep us updated.
Can I pretend to be pregnant since it looks like I won't ever be and then no one will give ME such wonderful prescriptions? I want a sleepy lion nap and ice cream and cozy pants and NO WORK!!
When I got home last night, I just wanted OFF electronics for a bit so I did a little gardening! Set the hose on the baby tree for its weekly 1ish hour of deep watering (we forgot over the weekend) and finally got my poor new chives planted in the herb spiral. Then I had to prune back the overly aggressive sage and oregano that were leaving no light to the rosemary and purple sage. H came home and started grilling up some sausages while I *finally* started tackling my favorite flower bed but he didn't ask if I was ready to eat so my gardening was cut 15 minutes short of what I had planned. I managed to start the process of taking care of my compost worms, too.
H watched the sounders game (we sold our tickets as there are 3 home games within this week) and I puttered on the computer and then worked on homework for the rest of the night...and oops, we stayed up until almost midnight! Despite all that time, I don't think I was very efficient on my homework, I spent waaaaaaay too long looking for free vector people silhouettes to make up my own version of an image I wanted to use that was watermarked by Shutterstock
I have to scary deep clean the bedroom this weekend. I didn't sleep well and something in the bedroom is making my nose runny AND stuffy simultaneously, boo. Also, I'm all weirdly high energy wired amped like I've had a crap ton of sugar or caffeine but I haven't, must be the sun. That's why this is a novella! Oh, having dinner with my bestie tonight. Work is still a beast. Finally switched over to my new purse. It's a teeny bit bigger than the old one but its really stiff and i hope it softens up a little.

YESSSSS! I'm excited. The bigger the better in my opinion...and not just with handbags. That was dirty, shame on you Uncle Grandpa.

Then I bet you're hoping it doesn't soften up a little.
I have discovered I might have to turn in my cheap-o old navy flip flops and get actual real flip flops for the summer. Just the 25 min walk around the neighborhood and one of my toes hurts from the between the toe deely. I used to wear nothing but flip flops but have tried to be better about wearing real shoes over the last year or so, now I need fancier flip flops, what is the world coming to!?

Sanuks are really comfy. I bought James some beer cozy ones last summer and I wore them all the time. So squishy. I hope you toes feel better. Jelly that you are out in the sunshine. I haven't even looked out a window since I got in at 8:45.
I just finished drafting something important that has to be filed today. And then I went to cross fit so I can come back with fresh eyes. I'll be glad to get it filed! It's been keeping me up nights. I might leave work a little early and fill up the kiddie pool with E can splash around in her cute new bathing suit. It's so nice out and I don't have any clients for the rest of the day.

. I wish you guys lived closer. I'm sure bkb would love playing with m.
You guys...why does my nephew hate me? I go to pick him up from my mom and he just cries because he wants to stay with grandma. He loves staying with D and playing with his Star Wars legos, but the ordeal of getting him to come with me is just awful. It makes me feel like crap.
