Morning ladies! I am waiting for my running buddy. It is really cold and dark out, I don't like this part of fall/winter. I would do anything to be back in bed right now.
Working then heading home after, I recorded the debate last night and will try to watch some highlights.
I hate how cold, wet and dark it is in the morning too.
Yesterday was pretty shittastic. Our intern got blamed for something that wasn't her fault and things quickly spiraled out of control. I'm really hoping that things are better today.
Since nothing is final with the memorial service I decided that I'm just going to keep the appt for my pics and if it does become final then I'll just pay for the room cancelation. I'm really starting to regret my decision for these pictures. They're turning out to be a big pain in the ass and way more expensive than I was expecting. Boo.
i hate how dark it is, but cold and wet i can deal with
good morning! bjl woke up at 2:30 last night and didn't go back to sleep...i didn't mind since she was smiling, giggling, and giving kisses. we didn't get back to sleep until about 4..and my alarm is set for 4:30.....boo.
I don't the cold and dark, but I could really use a sleep-in morning this week. I didn't get any over the weekend and probably won't this weekend either. Boo.
I got stuck working really late last night, then collapsed on the couch for the tail end of the debates. Thankfully, I have a PT appt this afternoon, which makes for a great excuse to leave on time.
UW, sorry about your craptastic work day There have been a few of those around here lately, and they suck. Hope today is much better.

Good morning!
It's so cold and dark in the mornings now - and it's much harder to get M ready in the morning because I have to put her in layers and socks (which she takes off as soon as she's in her carseat, haha) and everything.
I have stuff to make hot cocoa here, though, so I think that's what I'm going to do.
Good morning. I woke up late so I'm still waking up. I guess I set my alarm to quiet and didn't hear it. My husband came in at 7:35 asking if I still had to go to work at 8. So it's going to be an interesting day.

Good morning! Work has become a clusterfuck this week A bunch of people gave their 2-week notices yesterday, including my manager. Things are crazy, and I'm going to be busy, busy, busy! BUT I am on PTO next week, so I just have to make it through Friday.

I guess I'm the only one who goes out with the dog in the morning and enjoys the cold, dark, and wet. I have to admit it does make it harder to clean up the poop.
TODAY IS OUR ANNIVERSARY! 8 years! Yowzers! We are doing nothing. I think I'm going to get take out for dinner tonight so it's at least a little out of the ordinary. I bought him a small radio for his desk (he mentioned he would like one since he can't stream at work) and some Almond M&Ms, his fav. He asked me last night if I'd like flowers and chocolate, so I guess that's what I'm getting. I was thinking this morning about how a few years ago I would have been offended that he was asking me the day before, but last night I was just enthused about the flowers and chocolate suggestion.
My sister called me (who lives in MO) and said that she is flying in next Friday - spur of the moment just to visit for a week. She said, "I miss my mom." Haha! Anyway, I'm excited to have her. She is coming by herself. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her kids and her husband is great. I wish they could come, but she needs a break from them and it is nice to spend some time with her without them. I don't know how much I'm going to be able to see her since she's only going to be here a week and my parents live an hour and a half way, but even a little is better than zero.
Housework and resting today - I'm sleepy. OH, and I'm going to try the wig out tonight.
UW - Sorry for the craptastic day. Hopefullly today is better.
Dawny - We are going to see Jimmy Buffett too!! So excited.
BA - HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!
I woke up at 4am for some reason and really couldn't get back to sleep. H & I got into a fight last night. I'm stubborn and didn't say anything to him this morning because I will still angry at how he acted. Tonight we have the Jimmy Buffett concert with some friends. Pretty excited about that. I'm only at work for half day. I'm going to leave about noon to pick up the pup then head home and work from home the rest of the day.
I'm in halfax, nova scotia for work this week. bleh. My flight was delayed so I didn't get to the hotel until 2am. with the 4 hour time difference I am definitely feeling it this morning.
I've got a ton of work I should be doing but none of it has actual deadlines so I'm procrastinating. plus this hotel bed is so comfortable!
Happy Anniversary BabyA! Enjoy your takeout, flowers, and chocolate .
Nothing doing for us today. I'm trying to avoid all the "it's so cold and dark out" stuff. I have been able to cope with the last two winters pretty well, but between the long warm early parts of fall and the good weather in Tokyo i may have gotten spoiled.

Happy Anniversary BabyA!
Not much going on here. H got home early from football last night, so I didn't get any girl time in. I was bummed. I wish it wasn't so dark and cold so I could squeeze in a run. I feel icky since I only worked out two days last week due to my cold. Oh well back to crossfit tomorrow.
I just spent the last four hours cooking/baking. Gonna take a power nap, workout then go to work for 8 hours. Its gonna be a long day. But my manager is treating us to Starbucks at our afternoon training so something to look forward to.
I tried a toasted marshmallow steamer yesterday, it was perfect for this weather and only $1.50 at the Bargreens coffeestand.
I'm glad I didn't bail on yoga last night despite being tired when I got home. I really do love that class! I knew I really needed it, too, because I irritated my hip by too much gardening and it was seizing on me, and this week is gearing to be my quarterly extra-bad PMS week so I'm hoping the yoga will help balance my system and lessen the PMS.
H came home with a really pretty bouquet of fall flowers and a bunch of those darling mini pumpkin branches. I told him not to fall in to the habit of bringing me flowers when he screws up, but that I'd take them this time. (This may be the first time he's done it with part of an apology.) He said he it was also because he thought I'd like them as it was time to decorate for Halloween.
Work is slow, I'm on edge and I'm going to feel like my boss is on my case when she isn't but that's what stupid hormones say!
happy tuesday! i got to go home early from work last night because people are dying for hours so i was happy to give them up. i gave up more hours tonight so i don't have to work either. WOOT! i can go home and get some stuff done!
the weather does crazy things to me! i don't hate the dark.. but i hate the cold, the fact that my skin freaks out, my hair is doing weird stuff, i have a cold, i'm FREEZING (i don't ever remember being this cold ever before but i used to weigh 115+ last year so who knows), and all i wanna do is eat/sleep.
went through my closet 2 nights ago and realized i have a bunch of stuff that i forgot about, and while a little big, i bought it small so it still looks cute! can't wait to start making more outfits! lol.
Not much going on today. I'm feeling pretty craptastic with a yucky cold. I stayed home sick from work. Probably could have gone in, but I really really needed sleep. I have not been sleeping well for the past several weeks. ugh. I'm sure it's stress, but I'm tired of it!!
