It is raining, but it will turn into snow this afternoon. We are going to Dicks sporting store to find Jackson some hockey skates and both kids a bag to hold their stuff. Get some lunch and then relax while the snow falls down. I am looking forward to a relaxing day since we couldn't go to sleep after the Steelers game. Glad we won, but sad Antonio Brown got hurt. :-(
DH is on chantix to quit smoking and OMG it makes him moody. He's still titrating and hasn't even stopped smoking yet (today, I believe), soooo that oughtta be fun.

When I quit smoking, I was a hosebeast for about 2 weeks, then slowly became human again. It takes a while. Good luck to him, and to you!
Yeah, this is far from his first attempt at quitting, so I at least know what I'm in for. Thanks!
It looks like the nice mild winter we were having is finally over, boo. So once I get back from the grocery, I'm hunkering down on the couch for some football and chili.
My company didn't do as well as projected last year. I was planning on using my bonus to do some projects around the house, maybe get a fence for our yard, and part of it for a vacation we have planned for May. But I'm not sure if the bonus will be the amount I expected.
No more snow for us, but damn is it cold. Feels like -14. Gross.
I'm dragging ass so hard. We went out to a trivia night last night and got home at 11. Of course the kids were both up at 6! The babysitter worked out well last night. C liked her a lot and she seems normal. So, yay!! More potential date nights in the future!
C has her "best friend" from preschool coming over today for a playdate. She's pumped. Should be fun!
It's 60 degrees here today and tomorrow it will be 31. No wonder everyone is sick.
I'm so miserable. Everything hurts, I'm so tired, and I can't get comfortable sitting or laying. H and L have her swim lesson today, and I wish they'd stay out afterwards.
DS woke up at 6:40 to eat and went back to sleep. Now I'm laying in bed awake. This blows.
DH and I need to spend a lot of the day cooking and getting food prepped for the week. I also want to go to target to get shower stuff for work. I need a hair brush and a couple other things since I'll be showering regularly after my workouts.
Sunny but bitter cold today. We're putting beef stew in the crockpot, which sounds wonderful on this kind of day.
Another lazy day: breakfast out, some time spent at the coffee shop, a walk with the dog, maybe some cleaning if I feel motivated. Having nothing to do this weekend was perfect.

It's 2:41 right now and it's starting to get a touch dark. I hate winter. But at least it'll get lighter and lighter. I'm just back from a pub lunch with a friend (roast turkey, potatoes, parsnips, Yorkshire pudding, gravy...yum!) and tonight I'm going to a pub quiz with other friends. I love Sundays like this.

I need to catch up on all the housework I missed yesterday due to sick kid. Unfortunately, she was literally up ALL night and didn't fall asleep until 4:30 and woke up at 8. So, my motivation to get up off this couch is pretty slim. I have to pack for a work trip, finish up a shit ton of laundry, and finish up painting a wall in our kitchen that we decided to turn into a chalkboard.

H is on his way home from a walk/jog with a friend. After he gets here DD and I are headed out for our girls day. Lunch with pedicures and a little shopping. At some point I need to swing by and pick up my new glasses.
I've been on a mission to de-clutter the house before the baby arrives and last night/today has been clothes. I honestly thought I had been good about throwing/giving away clothes but I still have two containers of pre-pregnancy clothes and one closet to go and I've already filled 7 bags.
I'm going to divorce my h and marry my robot vacuum. I'm sitting on my couch drinking coffee while my house is being vacuumed. Best invention ever.
I need to meal plan. I'm going to try to do it without needing to make a trip to the grocery store, because I'm really lazy today and don't want to leave the house. I also need to clean bathrooms when ds goes down for his nap. I'm also hoping to get the storage shelf I bought for dd put together so I can get her new DVD player hooked up finally.
I'm spending my second morning in row in the stuffy, humid, over-chlorinated pool bleachers, watching my daughter swim. 5 hours of sitting, approx 4 minutes of action.

It's bullshit cold out today - -30s with windchill. I question the mental state of anyone going to the Vikings game to willingly sit out in this crap for three hours.
My parents kept the girls last night so we were able to sleep in..... It was delightful. 9am wakeup and H made a coffee run. We are going over to their house for the game and a big early dinner...... Then home for Downton Abbey and the Golden Globes. Except I'm almost out of wine and liquor stores aren't open today. Fucking Minnesota.
Waiting for my RE clinic to call me back to schedule an appointment so we can start IVF tomorrow, but obviously as per usual they are not returning my calls. I am getting so frustrated.
It dropped to 15 degrees this morning. My doors were frozen shut.
I started back to Weight Watcher's on Thursday. My H is the worst when I am working at losing weight. He bought all kind of crap this weekend. All I want to do is eat but so far I have refrained.
He has done really well with not smoking. He is using an ecig. I know a lot of people don't like those but he has gone from smoking a pack and half of small cigars a day. I think know that is progress.
H and I did long distance while we were dating for a much shorter period of time. He joined the Peace Corps in Bulgaria and after five months I moved there, too, independently the day before Christmas Eve. I still remember how excited I was to get on that plane and your post is giving me major flashbacks.

My stbhx asked that we be civil in the divorce and go thru mediation and blah blah save money, better for the kids. Ok great. Except now suddenly, he's stopped depositing his paycheck into our account, so I have no money for things he said he would pay like preschool and child support. I texted him finally to ask if he planned to help out, and no response.
I really really really just want this to be over with already.
