Saturday Stuff

What's everyone up to today?

[katespade]

H and I were planning to go to the state fair, but the weather forecast isn't great today. I think I'm going to see if I can talk him into going somewhere that involves being indoors, instead.

The weather is beautiful here. We went to the park, then for a walk downtown, and now just driving around a bit while G naps. Not sure what we will do the rest of the day.

My husband agreed to do the bathroom after all! Woohoo! He's still on the couch at 1pm but he claims he will move soon. Lol. Fingers crossed...

[katespade]

amaranth - Woo-hoo! We'll be needing before/after pictures.

I'm working today.

I was just told by a coworker that it takes 1+ years to get into a daycare here. :/ Which means I need to start looking asap. So much for only needing to look 9 months in advance. (At the most)

That's so crazy! I hope you get lucky.

I'm currently working. I'm trying to talk h into getting something to eat. I haven't really eaten since this morning and that was a bowl of cereal so I'm starving. Hopefully we will be out of here by 11pm. I took my own car so I can just drive right home instead of stopping at our office and drive from there. That adds 30 minutes to the drive that's already an hour long.

Gah, frustrated party of 1 over here. My H hasn't done a thing on the bathroom. I barely got him off the couch to go to one store and look at tile. We made a selection, then he sent me to the other stores by myself to look at the rest of the options. He has been working almost all day. It's Saturday, on a holiday weekend. I appreciate that he is good at his job and likes to go above and beyond, but this is ridiculous. he isn't expected to work and this is just stuff he wanted to do, not even urgent.

Soo, I'm guessing the bathroom isn't going to happen

Went to my inlwas today. The weather was amazing. I am going to open my windows now that we are home.

Went tailgating, then football. It was a long hot day, but fun! My dad came with, and stepmom stayed home to watch E (she's not an Aggie fan). We're all home now, E is in bed, and I'm pumping because my boobs hurt from not being drained all day.

That's frustrating amaranth, I'm sorry. Honestly, I would just go forward without his input. BUT this is the type of thing I like to do in my own anyway.

Nice relaxing day off where we stayed in our jammies all day. I slept in and took a nap. DS was sick yesterday so I didn't get much sleep or food dealing with vomit everywhere. Poor baby He was so much better today though. I hope he's almost over this virus because I've been really trying to not catch it (H and my parents did). That's all I need is a virus to put me into preterm labor. So happy the Aggies won! Whoop!

[katespade]

amaranth - I do the same thing as pooh8402. Usually, when H sees that I'm just going to go ahead and do a project like that myself, he gets up and actually follows through with what he said he would do.

((Hugs)) amaranth. That is beyond frustrating.

We went to Target, Corner Bakery for coffee, and a nice long walk at the park before coming home for lunch and nap. I went to the spa for my massage and pedicure during nap time. When I got there I was led to the "quiet room"...it took me no less than 2 minutes to decide I would be staying a little longer than just my appointment time. It was heavenly and just what I needed! I think this needs to happen every mother's day and birthday and told DH this when I got home. C is in bed now (not sleeping) and DH is at the concert at the lake with his BFF.

That's really frustrating amaranth. I hope tomorrow goes much better for you.

I can buy all the supplies and items (I got most of them), but I am not physically strong enough to demolish a bathtub and install a new one. He knows I am willing to help to the tile, but he has to do his part before I could even begin. I think now he realizes that he will have to take a day off work to get it done because he lost an entire day. You snooze, you lose. This time, literally.

I'm sorry. My husband can be like this too and it's very frustrating. I usually do projects by myself but there are some things I can't physically do. I hope he steps up soon.
