My [male] coworkers are trying to coordinate travel plans with me. No, I don't want to stay at the cheap hotel. No, I don't want to stay 30+ minutes away from the event site. I don't eat free continental breakfast. And no, I don't want someone to pick me up from the airport. I much prefer a rental car.
Whew. I've been traveling for 7 years, I'm set in my ways, leave me alone
That happened to me on Saturday, awick14. Woke up at 5:30, couldn't get back to sleep even though I stayed in bed until 7:30.
Update to my OP: I replied all with the most logical and cost effective hotel choice. My boss then replied all with, "That's what I'm talking about. THANK YOU!" Apparently I wasn't the only one annoyed with the endless back and forth hand wringing.
It's a gorgeous day here. I have all the windows open and the AC turned off.
DH got home late last night. My nice clean house somehow is already a disaster lol. We plan on spending the day together running errands and relaxing at home.
I just woke up and I'm trying to convince myself to get out of bed and make breakfast. My only plan for today is to dye my hair, because my roots are out of control. I picked up a different color this time and I'm hoping it's closer to brown than the last one I tried.
I was called in this morning to volunteer covering the front desk at a local Centre. I only had an hour notice so I showed up wet hair & breakfast in hand. Now I'm enjoying a roasted veggie salad at one of my favourite local eateries.
So after everything yesterday/this am baby is still kicking about but my butt has a lovely bruise on it, and it's sore today. Not super sore that I can't sit but sore enough that I notice it. Ouch.

Just got back from breakfast with C at Panera bread followed by a 45 min walk at the park and a trip to Costco! We just ate lunch and I am looking forward to nap time in an hour or so. Might try to convince myself to take C to the lake after nap since I don't need to cook dinner tonight.
I received more fabric today. I really want to sew more (my new obsession) but I am so over committed for fall that I've been up late every night doing volunteer work. My laundry is not even folded from last week. The floor needs to be scrubbed. Suffice it to say, I'm behind and there's not much extra time these days
@lapsha I don't want Christmas, but I do want fall! Our windows are open today. It's so lovely.
ewall glad you won out. It sounds like my husband vs. his co workers at times.
@awick sorry about your bruise 😞 just glad baby is still feisty though!
Day took a turn for the worse when DS busted his lip at daycare. He finally went to sleep and is doing pretty well all things considered, but we are still in the ER waiting on the plastic surgeon.
Also I'm apparently coming down with a cold and can't seem to find a single tissue in this ER. My nose is like a faucet. Perfect timing.

ewall sweet cinamon pumpkin and marshmellow pumpkin latte in soaps. Then I got pumpkin pecan waffle room spray and a sweet cinamon pumpkin room spray and candle. Our house is going to smell like a delicious pumpkin patch. Not gonna lie I dont mind.
Temperatures are a tiny bit lower today. People are losing their minds here.
It gets down to 80 degrees around here and you start seeing people out for walks in hoodies. If it hits the 70s then the ear-warming headbands make an appearance. I sweat just looking at those people!

Thanks everyone! I feel like no one would ever guess the size of that dress based on that picture. It's much bigger than my pant size, lol. I feel like I look way smaller than I expected to in that size dress!
