We got the house at list price! I am a little shocked but am looking forward to starting the remodeling project. We were joking about inviting people over without telling them we are renovating to see what they say.
Thursday didn't start off well. I over slept, stepped on the scale and saw a number I didn't like. So I am just in kind of a shitty mood now..... I am hoping things are relaxed as work.
I'm hoping for a somewhat relaxing Thursday, as it's typically the least busy day of the week for me. I'm mailing out three Valentine's Day cards today: to my mom, grandma, and my friend's Corgi (who is Conan's "Valentine" ).
Congrats monsterz , just tell them there will be pizza and beer and light cleaning @aellasbeth Hope you have a great day at work, and that your day gets better.
Stress dream last night - Guess I'm a little anxious about my new job, but I didn't realize it. It's a great opportunity to stretch myself.
I don't know why H and I are so tired. But at least we have a great baby, who loves sleep. the Molten Chocolate Latte from Starbucks is exactly how it sounds. SWEET SWEET SWEET. Maybe a bit much. I think I have a sugar high and am bouncing off the walls.

Congrats monsterz! I can wait to hear about remodel updates .
Anyone else having a hard time waking up today? I am thinking it might be another extra cup of coffee today. Hopefully my late morning run can recharge me.
I was looking at registering for Spring Quarter and I just want to take all the BI classes. I enjoy learning it so much. At the same time I need a break from school, so that's what I am going to do for at least the short term (after I finish the next two classes I have to take). I wish I could make school part of my day job and not extra.
H is doing dinner with the boys today, so I ordered from Munchery for dinner for bkb and myself. They deliver to my house now, but they changed it where there is now a 8.95 a month subscription fee. It's too bad because I really liked their food, but I just don't order take out enough to make it worth it. I would rather pay the 2-5 dollar fee every now again to do Door Dash.

Thanks. I hope so too!
Also I looked at those this morning and decided just to stick with my Oprah Chai tea latte.
There's a lot to be said for agents that take horrible photos of a house and it has almost no curb appeal at the moment. Even though there was a higher offer they like us better as I wrote a sappy letter and didn't want to tear down their family home and flip it.
karebear219, you are not alone. I got to "sleep" in this morning but I'm dragging.
I am like a zombie this morning. I was up multiple times with both J and Aj, it was the sucks. I think I slept maybe 4 hours. maybe 4 1/2.
Today is just another day. I am waiting to hear on my car being done, I expected it to be done yesterday by how they were talking but still no word. So we are wondering if they broke more things while trying to replace the cats. If so I'm glad they said they would fix it and H didn't have to deal with it like we thought he would. He has enough on his plate that he needs to get done that he actually admitted to being overwhelmed with it all. Made me sad that a lot of it is things I have no clue about doing so I can't ease the burden. So I offered to learn how to reload his ammo for him since its one of the only things on his list I can remotely help with while having the kids lol
monsterz, congrats that is so awesome! I'm excited for you guys. Does the house need complete to the studs remodel or is it just an outdated needs to be cleaned up kind of thing?
Good morning! Congrats monsterz!! That's great news! @ivankitteh how was the interview the other day?
I took yesterday off work. Had a dr appointment in the morning, and then hung out with my mom. BFF & I went to the Mardi Gras thing at McMenamins Tuesday night. It was fun, though pretty low key. I really do love that place. D met up with us. So he's officially met the bestie.
Not much going on here. Hitting the gym tonight, but that's the only plans for my evening.
I'm so hungry. I have no breakfast food. I have pizza and soup. I'm about to dive into the pizza.
Heard very alarming news about my current work yesterday and now am SO glad that I found another job. The timing is absolutely crazy. I put my notice in and less than a week later, this bad news comes down. It's pretty bad...like it was on the news. And the stock has fallen 75% this week.
Nothing going on tonight. James needs to stop getting home so late. It's driving me crazy. I've been doing EVERYTHING on my own like a single mom...and I'm NOT a single mom. What's the point in even being married. Haha.
I had an early, long and productive board meeting today. I can't really sleep in anymore because my hip/pelvic region is starting to get kind of uncomfortable so I have no problems waking up early anymore!
It looks like I have about 4 in-office back to back meetings today with prospective clients. I swear 2 years ago I would have BEGGED for the amount of work I have right now. And now I just want it to taper off so I can have a real maternity leave.

Just outdated and needs updated. The spaces are great and it has a good layout. Nothing has been touched since the early 90s.
monsterz, whoop new houses are exciting, congrats!!
Nothing is new here. Mieka was cleared from the vet today for her infection (so I am really glad I don't have to keep taking her every week). She was understandably scared to go in there since for the past 3 weeks she has had to get rectal exams, sorry tmi.
FSIL is upset H is not going to their wedding in Mexico. She told him to just keep it in his pants for a month to prevent the spread of Zika. I was like sure... he can meet his 1st child with a gloved handshake.

Found out that yet again, I am a loser. No more interviews for me, I can't deal with any more disappointment. I start at Providence in 3 weeks and at least I have scrub shopping to cheer me up. At Swedish I would have been stuck wearing their unit colors, but at Providence, I can wear whatever scrubs I want.
I'm going to bed early. Went on a long long walk after finding out I was rejected again so I'm pretty tired.

I'm sorry. Interviewing is such a grueling process. It can be so painful.

I'm sorry. That really sucks.
I saw Seahawks scrubs somewhere recently. Those were pretty sweet. Maybe Walmart?
