I'm going to get dressed soon and go to the farmers market in town. I may go to a few different ones this morning if I get the energy. Besides that I plan on making mini muffins for H's big drill tomorrow.
I'm going to try out my new makeup this morning, wish me luck lol. I'm going to give it a try. I saved a bunch of YouTube videos because I have no clue how to contour or do a smokey eye lol. I'm 32 and still have no clue how to do it, ha. I'm trying the whole if I look good maybe I'll feel good thing my doctor wants me to try.

My brother, SIL, niece and nephew are coming down today, yay! We don't have any big plans, today we'll probably just chill and watch football and grill for dinner. Tomorrow we'll go out for brunch/lunch for DH's birthday. Otherwise I don't know. Kind of hard to figure out stuff to do with 2 babies (1 mo and 3 mos)
For once I am glad they are always running late because I have a ton of stuff to do around the house this morning!

@emtmissy- ((hugs)) I hope you start feeling better soon. You are such an amazing woman, always doing so much for others and I hate that you are struggling right now. FWIW, I am 34 and do not know a thing about makeup (I have not worn it for years and was never into it to begin with). Have fun at the farmers market (s) today!
DH is finishing up our fence today (we had to install one so C will be contained in our backyard). I think I will walk C to Starbucks and treat myself to a PSL before taking him to the park.
Weather forecast is 90s Sun/Mon and high 80s/90 tues/weds...i sure would love for this baby to make his move so I can just sit inside an air conditioned hospital instead of our hot house. Chances of that happening are pretty slim though so maybe we will go to the lake tomorrow afternoon!
Today we are going out to dinner with my grandparents who are in from NC and my parents and 2 of my siblings. My grandparents have no idea about baby grover yet.
Tomorrow we are going to dinner with my entire dad's side of the family for a belated anniversary dinner for my grandparents (and techically my parents since they have the same anniversary). No one on that side knows yet either.
I am finally coming up for air after a crazy crazy week. On Tuesday, about 24 hours before we moved, somebody rear ended my car on the way to work. Nobody was seriously injured thankfully but because I am pregnant it was a scare. Not to mention the fact that all of a sudden my SUV that we were planning on to move a lot of our stuff was not usable. I had a huge meltdown on the side of the road and the cop was able to use heavy duty electrical tape to tape my bumper and quarter panel back together to buy me some time to just get through the move. Luckily everything with the move went pretty smoothly and now I am at the repair shop trying to make a plan for my car. My parents are headed down today to help out with B and the house and are bringing dinner with them. Hopefully will be able to relax at least a little bit at some point this weekend.

I'm supposed to see my favorite band in concert tonight. It's an hour and a half drive to get there, and I've been preparing for it in therapy for months. I'm so anxious, it's unbelievable. But I'm committed to getting there because I've been working toward it for so long.

Blue Moon- how scary and frustrating. Glad you and baby are ok and you are moved!! Hope you are able to fix your car without too much inconvenience and you get a lot accomplished this weekend! Good luck friend! And thank you for the baby vibes...i am ready to meet our little guy!!
So...C is sick again, third time since our move 1.5 months ago. We did our morning out and came home to him not being able to stay awake, super fussy, and runny nose. Not sure what is going on with him and I am now worried about him and why he keeps getting sick (he is hardly ever sick until our move), having a newborn and him being sick, and being at the hospital and C possibly being sick. I know it's just a cold but it's weird he keeps getting it.

Blue Moon So glad you guys are okay and can relax soon!
@emtmissy So glad you are feeling more like yourself. I suck at makeup too, I usually just wing it, but that's a great idea looking at YouTube. I need more makeup to play with!!!
I got some more packing done this morning, and I've done some laundry. Now I'm relaxing until dh gets home and then we are going out for dinner for a belated anniversary dinner. (It was our 9 year dating anniversary on Thursday.)
I'm at my parents after going to Ren Fest today. It was fun! Drank some mead, bought some fun stuff, watched jousting, and enjoyed the nice weather! Now we're finishing up some things for my cousin's FI's shower!

Well WTF. Apparently there was a stabbing or shooting (not sure, hearing mixed stories) at the mall up by where we live. One person apparently was killed. Seriously??? Ugh. I hope no one I know was involved
ETA: it was stabbing, the suspect is dead. And of course the live feed comments were ridiculous. Blaming the Somalians, saying it's a terrorist, and giving details that were not only false, but RIDICULOUS. Ugh. Obviously this isn't about me but I'm freaked out to go back there. I hope everyone involved will be OK
I went to Joanns yesterday to sign up for a sewing class (bucket list!) and picked up some arts and crafts for myself. This is a wooden sugar skull that I started painting. Unfortunately I spent FOREVER painting in those nooks and crannies only to find out that when they light up, they change colors. Oh well. It's still fun!
@emtmissy- don't feel bad about the makeup stuff. I only wear makeup for weddings and such. I could careless what people think about me wearing it or not, and with work I feel like it would be a waste putting it on everyday.
estrellita- that would be scary, I hope they caught the guy.
They did. Sounds like an off duty cop shot him. And of COURSE the guy was saying something about Allah while stabbing people. Adding fuel to the fire that is the horrible racism in this area. Sigh.

at least he was caught before he hurt anyone else.
Blue Moon - That sounds really unnerving! I'm glad you were still able to proceed (somewhat) smoothly through your move.
@emtmissy - Add me to the list of people who can't do hair or makeup. I'm impressed when I manage to blow dry or straighten my hair nicely.
I'm at work today. I got an interview for that 6 month contract I wanted so I'm trying to make myself prep for the interview. My presentation is basically done, just going to do a run through with DH, but I haven't practiced answering all those annoying interview questions.

melsamoony thanks for asking! Things are better. We have a counseling appointment set up for Oct 4. He's been asking before he spends money and he did read the book. We just need to find time to go through the workbook together. He also started his new job and he's tired from it but he likes it! I think as long as he keeps this up things will be OK.

melsamoony- LOL at your DS...I am so confident this would never happen with C that I would bet money on it. Enjoy your relaxing day!
I am in L&D for monitoring. I have been taking evening primrose oil as a suppository since tues evening but had extra discharge, along with spotting after my walk, this morning so had to come in to confirm my water didn't break. So far everything looks good and I am will be getting discharged soon.
