Today is a good day: -it's my Friday -I had plans to renew my license at the DMV tomorrow and I just figured out that it didn't expire until 2023 -My parents are visiting tomorrow (and the housekeeper came yesterday)
Whoever recommended the JVN complete air dry cream THANK YOU! I've been using it for two days and I'm really happy with how my hair looks.
Camp is closed again today- still no power, so dad is home with me. Here’s hoping I can actually get some work done and that she doesn’t show up on any of my video calls!

I saw the Crawdads movie last night, and enjoyed it! I think it’s going to be if you liked the book you will like it, if not maybe not… two people I went with hadn’t read it yet but enjoyed the movie too.
I had a dream where I was mad and woke up mad, not really at anyone or anything just mad. It’s so interesting to me that the brain can do that to us.
I’ve been getting up early and working out before I start work since it’s super busy right now and I really don’t have time during the day. It’s nice getting it out of the way, but I am EXHAUSTED by like 2pm. I’m not a morning person so this has been a challenge for me, and I’m going to have to do this for the rest of the month until things slow down again, but omg…I don’t know how people do this regularly.
Also, my teammate who I had lunch with a couple times and thought I was forging a friendship with is being super weird. I was starting to have my suspicions that he tends to embellish and exaggerate some things about his life and I was considering pulling back the communication a bit anyway, but man, I’m a little wtf over this. Why can’t people (especially coworkers) just be normal?

Today's my Friday too! I'm actually taking a half day today and then we're heading to stay with friends at the Cape for a few nights. Their DD is the same age as mine and they love hanging out together along with her little brother. Tomorrow we're doing the water/inflatables park then beach on Saturday. The pup will be boarded while we're gone, he stayed there overnight for the first time last weekend and LOVED it.
My dream last night had a soundtrack. I don't remember the details of the dream but I know that the This is Me from the Greatest Showman played throughout my dream. So weird.
My baby sister who is pregnant got engaged last night. I'm so happy for her but also so sad that my Dad isn't here to see this. My sister is the baby of the family and her and my Dad had a special relationship, he would have been so damn happy for her.
Today totally does feel like a Friday. I'm sad that it isn't!
I am obsessing over what I'm going to do about our floors. My H doesn't like spending money so he is kind of like "I don't think we need to do anything, but do what you want" so he's not a lot of help. I cannot stand the floors in our living room anymore (they are really beat up) so I want to do our main level this year no matter what. But I am leaning toward ALSO doing the stairs leading down to the basement and the basement. There is carpet on the whole lower level, and the stairs are SUPER creaky, to a point where it bugs me every time we go up and down the stairs. The trim down there is also poorly installed so there is a gap between the carpet and trim (I think it just needs quarter round to finish it). And the carpet is old and has some small stains. We work in the basement so it's not like it's just a storage area, it's a space where we spend a lot of time. Also, the bathroom downstairs has ugly tile that IMO is poorly installed, so I want to just replace all of it. We are looking at carpeting the stairs (for budget and safety reasons) and doing LVP for everything else. Of course, to do all of this is over 8k so... I don't blame H for not being excited to spend the money. HOWEVER. I am teaching as an adjunct for 2 courses over the 22-23 school year and what I'd get paid for that will cover about $6500 of it. That is just bonus money so I am thinking I want to use it for this? The flooring company has 3 years 0% financing so it seems silly not to do it all at once if we'd be doing it within the next 3 years anyway.
Or maybe I'm just rationalizing that because I want new flooring, lol. I just don't want to be dragging out updates to our house for the next decade. We aren't planning to move anytime soon so I'd love to do 1 big project a year for a few years and then just enjoy our house (and repair stuff as I'm sure we will inevitably have to do). Last year was windows, this year could be flooring, and then maybe next year or the year after a bathroom.

How long have you been doing this? It took me about 3 weeks to acclimate to this schedule. Having a good, protein rich breakfast helps also.

So the movie (trailer) looks so much more modern than what I pictured while reading the book! And her so much more cleaned up.
Ok douche, go ahead and call it mud. My husband DID have halitosis. We addressed it after I talked to you girls on here and guess what? Years later, no problem. Mofongo, you're a cunt. Eat shit. ~anonnamus
Our a/c broke last week and the part they need to fix it isn’t expected to come for 3 more weeks. Terrible news. We do have 2 portable units so it’s not awful but they are really loud. Blahhhhhhhh.
@@ Teenagers get such a bad rep, but they’d really my favorite people. When your kid makes you a Spotify playlist? The second half of your life begins
I agree! Well, not the Spotify part but my teen daughter is a pure delight compared with ages 4-13. She was a TOUGH KID (understatement of the year). We have such a good relationship now. I mean, it's taken years of therapy and excruciatingly painful life changes but all worth it 1000%. Even her friends tell her how they envy her relationship with me.
It's my Friday too! Tomorrow is back to school shopping with the kiddo, she is so excited. I love it.
I really need to get my hair done, but I keep looking at the calendar trying to figure out when I can go. Surgery next week and then August is just busy with work, summer beach stuff, and then I'll turn around and school will be starting. It's so long, I need it cut.
My car won't be repaired until August I got my rental so at least that's good but I've been soooo spoiled in my car - it's SO comfortable and smooth and quiet. My last car was pretty much a truck and I've only had this new car since November but it doesn't take long to forget. I can't wait to get it back. Also. Part of me is worried they might total it. At first it was just windshield and hood but apparently to roof is also messed up. I'm paranoid it will never be the same after repairs.

My Excel is broken. I've submitted a help desk ticket, but haven't heard back. In my job, there's little to nothing I can do without it, so I'm shopping and playing on my phone.
I have a dr's appointment on Monday. Let's just say I haven't been taking care of my diabetes, so I assume the numbers will be bad. I'm trying to decide if I should try to get my life together before then, or just roll with it and continue to eat all the good Southern food until the numbers come back. I know I really do have to get it together though, I don't feel amazing and my pants are snug, plus I just want to be healthy and be around for a long time yet.

Tonight, my agency got everyone tickets to a local baseball game for an appreciation night. We’re taking our kids and our niece and nephew. They seemed somewhat disinterested until I told them we would go to the concession stand and get anything they want all night long.
The home team better stock up on nachos, the locusts are coming.
Still on the Covid upswing, I think. Crossing everything for the tiny chance that I test negative on Saturday for my outdoor concert because I really don't think I can do a mask for hours in 100 degree weather.
We were supposed to go to my parents this weekend and now I’m sick. This sucks. I’m we haven’t seen them in a month, the boys were at camp and then they were sick and now I’m sick. I got a negative Covid test at home today but I have hardly any voice and a headache and just feel like crap. It’s going to be me, the dogs and 90120 reruns all day.
The JVN air dry cream is my favorite thing I've purchased in years. I actually reviewed it on the Sephora website I love it so much. And I never review anything ever. Ever.
