I have been up since 2 am. This happens often. It is getting old.

Also, I have a sore where my wedding ring rubs against my middle finger, so I'm not wearing it until it heals. I feel naked. However, I love my outfit today. Perfect for getting a root canal.

I am so done with being a working mom. I have the best & most supportive of all situations too. I am sure being a sahm would really hard too. I just want a perfect part time solution, & I don't want to take a pay cut waaahh!

I met miso last night

I woke up 4 times last night for no reason Now I'm really tired.

My husband said how lucky I was to have such a good support system of Nexties. I think he's proud of me for making efforts to meet people, since I'm not usually as outgoing as he is.

I'm supposed to do a really fun 5k walk with my friends Friday night, and I have to sit it out. I can't even walk a block without my foot hurting.

I'm supposed to be exercising for my anxiety, but this is really getting in the way. I'm about ready to break down and pay $70/month to join a gym with single sex pools so I can swim.

Bragplaint: I lost some weight recently and my clothes are falling off of me. I have an interview this morning and thought I could get away with wearing one of my suits, but they look ridiculous. My back-up plan was a sheath dress with a blazer, but that's not working, either. I look like a kid playing dress-up.

I need to buy new clothes badly, but I am having a hard time justifying the expense. I guess I'll have to suck it up and spend the money.

I feel a sinus infection coming on. I can not afford to get sick right now. The college semester just started and work is hectic. I do not have freaking time to go to the doctor or be sick in bed.

Last night SO walked in the door first words out of his mouth were "Oh no your getting sick aren't you". F.M.L.

I am really mad at myself for not buying Apple stock in May.

Yes! We signed up earlier this summer. I'm not in running shape, but we all decided just to walk it together. And now that's out. I need to see if anybody wants my registration.

Have fun!

Thank you! Good luck with getting the job you interviewed for, as well!

By the way, I responded to your FB message.

I didn't sleep well last night at all. More nightmares about moving, roommates and cars. At one point I felt like I was in Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang. WTF. I'm ridiculously stressed about this whole situation and I just want to sleep.

I had a meeting with my PhD adviser yesterday. I'm starting my third year with 2 field seasons completed. I thought I was going to get reamed out for dissappearing for my bridal shower last week, instead I got "There is no reason that with one more field season you shouldn't have enough data to graduate." Which means 1 field season, 2 academic years and done.

This also means that our possible baby plans of having #1 next december would put me past that field season with the only thing really left to do would be writing. Far more doable that honey bee work with an infant.

Weeeeee. Seeing an end in sight is a good, good thing.

My friend texted me at 5:30 this morning asking me to help her pack. I'm 15 minutes from leaving the house. Could she not have told me his last night, so I could pack to spend the night tonight. I am helping, but I am fearful what I'm walking into. I know she hasn't packed as much as she could be at this point. Apparently, something came up where she needs to be out by Friday. She wouldn't be far into this process even if this new urgent deadline hadn't come up. Ugh.

[chessie]

Sore from this mornings work out, I have a tough mudder coming up in about a month, not 100% sure if I am ready.

[Wines Not Whines]

I can't stop snacking on unhealthy things. This is not good.

I met a CW yesterday who used to work at my old company many years ago. He kept dropping the name of the head of our division and how he used to work for him as an executive. He must have mentioned the guys name 5x in the 5 min conversation. I was so close to saying "well then you must have been in on 'fixing' the books and covering up all of his affairs because he was FIRED shortly after you left"

My cousin posted this article on Facebook: www.theonion.com/articles/pregnant-woman-relieved-to-learn-her-rape-was-ille,29258/

My mom commented on the post "OMG. Is she serious?"

Clearly my mom has never heard of the Onion.

I signed up for a job posting service to advertise for a nanny. It is great, 10 replies in the first 24 hours. Al by email to the website inbox. But then also, 4 phone calls to my cell, 3 calls to my home phone.
I feel bad saying, "please just email" but a phone call is hard to work with. I am either out for a walk or in the middle of something with the baby.
I have started screening and letting them leave messages.

I had a job interview yesterday. I think it went really well, and they asked for my references before the interview was over. I really hope I get it.

Even though I stayed below my daily calories yesterday, I gained over a pound in 1 day. I'm sure the turkey burger and tater tots had nothing to do with it.

I feel like shit.

I woke up at 4am dying of thirst (which makes sense, because I was sick ALL day yesterday and didn't rehydrate). I was up and uncomfortable for 1.5 hours. then I fell back asleep for two hours and woke up with the worst tension headache. I got ice, drank another water, and took ibuprofen. then I fell back asleep. just woke up now sweating and starving.

[egishere]

My former nanny texted me at 11:30 last night (12:30 her time) that someone would be calling me today for a job reference on her. She woke me up and I was pissed! I texted her this morning to "please not text me that late, that she woke me up and I was not happy about it." I really don't want to give her a reference-she has been a total nut job since we parted ways when we moved in April. I hadn't heard from her in over a month so I thought I wouldn't until last night -ugh!!

[cajunmom]

If it rains again today and I have to cancel yet another softball practice I'm gonna be pissed.

[ondaflipside]

Irrationally annoyed when I woke up in the middle of the night, and can't close the master bathroom door bec DH put his towel at the top edge of the door. I'm short so it's always a struggle. I bitched loudly enough he woke up.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I can't wait for the summer to be over. It's the hottest summer I've had so far.

Every time I see the Property Brothers' commercials, I thought it would be nice to be sandwiched by the Scotts. But I think at least one of them is gay. Such is my life.

[kateausten]

So annoyed with my coworkers lately!! I work with a low-talker/mumbler and it's driving me up the wall. I can't fucking hear you, speak up!!

We also have a secretary who is the sweetest thing ever but she's so forgetful and gets sidetracked very easily. It's really hard to get mad at her because she'll do just about anything for you but if she gets sidetracked, forget it.

I'm also annoyed that patients have no idea what happens during an induction and their doctor doesn't explain it to them. Don't people want to know how the procedure works?? I don't get it.

[mskitkat]

Why is it so hard to find a good doctor? I've been without a prescription since Thursday because they can't get their act together. I call, they promise it will be handled, and then it isn't. Grrr. I TOLD them to submit everything in my married name, then they get all confused when my insurance rejects it because they submitted under my maiden name. Of course they can't call me to update me like they said they would. I would get fired if my follow up was that poor!

Sorry it's giving you so much trouble. It sounds awful. Did you make an appointment with a podiatrist yet?
