I have a 1:1/Review this morning with my boss. She said it's just routine, but no one else in my group has one scheduled. I feel like I've been sucking at work, life, and relationships lately so it's making me nervous that it's not going to go well.
For your amusement today - a couple of the FWPs I overheard at school drop off this morning.
- A woman who was distraught because she had to drive to school instead of walk. She only lives a quarter mile away, but her house and property is fully gated, the gate isn't working for pedestrians, and the gate repair guy wasn't available until next week. "What if there was an emergency and we needed to get away??" "Isn't there a setting to just keep the gate open?" "Oh, I can't do that. Just think of all the riffraff that would try to break down my front door!"
- Another woman who was desperately looking for more casual smocked clothing for her kid to wear to school. "I have a hard time spending $100 on a dress that she's just going to paint in, but I can't do play clothes. I will not to Carters. I CANNOT!"
Who knew that clothing from Carters was the sign that you hit rock bottom?

I bought a new coffee creamer last night. I put the amount that I used to with my other flavor and holy shit it's like I'm drinking straight creamer. This sucks. But I'm too lazy to brew and cool another cup of coffee to even it out.

I am going at lunch to a buy a FRER and am considering POAS at work this afternoon. I'm a few days late, but haven't had a chance to go to the store alone this week, so today is my first available chance. I'm excited and nervous. I don't think I can wait to get home tonight to test.

Test now! Are you the ttcae? If so, no need to test.

No, I'm not the AE. That thread is what made me post this though.
I don't get to leave for lunch until 12:30. I don't know for sure how I'll be able to test at work, but I'm going to try. I can't even focus on work this morning. All I can think about is leaving for lunch!!

I tested with Lyla at work. Test ASAP!
I don't get to leave for lunch until 12:30. Luckily, there is a RiteAid close to the office!

Warning, another DH brag. Yesterday was the first class of that leadership program he got accepted into at his company. He was one of 8 people in the class...out of EIGHTY applicants!! Holy crap! When he walked in, even though he had never met these people, they all knew who he was because he is constantly on this thing called a leaderboard for their district (13 stores). Basically he sells the most extra add on products, gets the highest guest survey scores, and does really complicated packing for shipments (if someone comes in with a weird sized object, the employee has to build a box). Anyways, because all of that is in a newsletter that gets emailed to every location, they all knew who he was. Oh and in the entire class he was the one who has been with the company the shortest. Most people had been with the company for 2-3 years and he's only been there 7 months. Sorry for always bragging about him. He's just been so miserable at all his jobs for the last 7 years and it is so awesome to see him happy and enjoying work.
I caught Audrey's cold and feel like crap! Grateful to be able to send V to daycare and hoping A naps a lot today.
Speaking more of daycare woes, I just found out that they made the move-up cutoff to Pre-K Feb, 2012. The kids move up this Monday. So, basically V will be the oldest child in her classroom now (1 other part-time girl is her age as well as a boy, who is on a different developmental level.) I'm pretty upset being as that she was also the oldest for the last 3 months of the 2s room. It's basically like she's now in the 2s room again, but with different teachers. I spoke to the director and requested a move-up between now and November, but they didn't promise anything.
ETA: The move-up cutoff varies year to year based on numbers. So, basically, any other year she could potentially be going to Pre-K on Monday.
ktstorm I hope it goes well. Things like that are so stressful. Good luck!
Thanks! It ended up being fine, we just hadn't met all summer since I was teaching and she was traveling so it really just was a catch up and plan for the next year. Like she said. Luckily her suggestions for development are in line with things that I think I'm lacking in anyway and wanted to work on, phew!
If the attire for a wedding calls for "casual", what does that mean? A more casual dress and heels? I've never been to a casual wedding before and need guidance.

FWP: we are watching Dexter and I thought we only had 3 episodes left of season 6 but we had 4. I thought we would be able to finish the season last night but I couldn't stay up that late so we only watched 2 episodes. It gets very "OMG I have to watch the next episode" toward the end of the seasons so I'm kinda frustrated that I have to wait until tonight to finish it!
