Happy Monday/four days until Turkey

[niq]

Hey everybody! It's 8am here in Atlanta, so i think i just barely woke up before husky and JL.

It's sunny and 60 here every day of my trip. Perfect fall weather. I Watched the football game with my high school bff here, then had dinner with dad & dad's gf yesterday. It's a little weird. I liked his last gf plenty, so it's not that i have a problem with him dating, i just ... i dunno. Maybe i don't get what the appeal is. Maybe as I'm getting older I'm having a harder time letting new people into my life. But whatever it is i suspect it's short term and once I've met her a couple more times things will be fine.

Today is running around doing errands and Christmas shopping. Have a good one!

Good morning! Coco has been playing this fun game called "get mom up earlier than necessary" the last couple weeks. I'm over it. Thankfully this is day 1 of a two day work week!

I am braving Costco after work today. If I'm not outta there in an hour, can someone please send in a search party?

Niq, I definitely can see why it would be weird meeting a dad's gf. It would be an awkward dynamic having someone "join the family" in that capacity.

Had lunch with my grandparents yesterday. It was surprising how many restaurants were closed on a Sunday. I seem to have forgotten what small town living is like. Spent the afternoon watching football and hanging out with my sister. Unfortunately I have to work today, hopefully I will be able to take the rest of the week off.

Wow, it looks like we have an active board already.

MK, Betty's been playing the "I'm afraid of the storm and so I'm pacing on the bed" game, so I feel your pain. We've been sorta awake since 3 over here. :/ And you're super brave for Costco today.

Niq, I feel like that would be super awkward too.

I hope everyone had a great Monday!

Good morning. I'm nursing quite the hangover right now. I drank way too much last night and got sick. My own fault but I had so much fun. Would have been better if the sounders would have won though. Luckily I have today off.

Good morning. Just lounging on the couch. Tman has been sick since Friday, and he claims to still not feel well enough to go to school. He is still coughing, but no fever or anything. Anyway, I think he's probably well enough for school, but I'm not going to risk it.

Unfortunately, this means that he's going to have a week's worth of school to cram into two days. We'll see how lax his teacher is about that - she doesn't typically let things go which I usually appreciate.

He is going to be really bored watching me do housework today.

psh.. i was at WORK 8am EST.

good morning! today's been crazy busy already at work. the moment i got in to work, i was told i need to fill in for this semi-major meeting at 6am, and i needed to be briefed on it so that i could be the SME and present. it was fun.

i had a crazy dream last night..i had a dream i had a baby (my 3rd), and i was so happy because i didn't have to go to work today. my 3rd baby's name was "daffney renee"......"daffney, like scooby dooby doo"...i literally said that in my dream. and um. don't google "daffney", it's actually "dafphne". "daffney" is not very SFW. oops.

went to the airport twice this weekend, didn't get to go anywhere. boo. but that means we went to ikea, and that was fun when you don't have anything else to do.

so excited for this short week! have a great week everyone!

Im still snuggled up in bed trying to decide if i wanna work out before work today. I had three straight days of tough workouts in a row so i maygive in to the lazyness. I havent looked outside so i dont know how bad the rain is. Im excited to rainboots today

Good morning!

Busy weekend, not enough sleep, need coffee.

Do not want to be at work, but it's Thanksgiving Week! We'll be doing a lot of prep work the next few days, but DH has already said he'll be making Thanksgiving dinner, so I'm happy about that.

I had a not so fun morning and left work 25 minutes later than I wanted to. I woke up at 6:30 to jump in the shower and H was finishing up getting ready for work. "Are you going to feed the dogs and everything?" I almost lost it. If I would have known I needed to do that I would have gotten up early. He threw a hissy fit, "Waaah I still have to put out the trash cans. Fine I'll just do everything! *stomp stomp*"

I liked driving in to work today because of all the big puddles. Puddles are lot funner in my Jeep.

Good morning! I was not a fan of the soggy commute this morning Good thing it's a short week!

Morning! We had a busy weekend. Sleepover on Friday (in addition to our 3 and 6 year old we had a 5 and 7 year old stay over), I had to work Saturday, dinner at friends on Saturday night, and worked yesterday. Also made 4 batches of rolls for Thanksgiving, and some homemade beet gnocchi for dinner.

Back at work today and tomorrow but then we're off to Whistler! Where they've received 28" of snow in the past 2 days and it's supposed to keep snowing all week

I LURVE Whistler! I want some Cows!

I worked only a few hours yesterday, we were dead so my manager sent me home.

Today is a preschool day so I'm not doing very much. I made the boys pumpkin pancakes for breakfast and I'm trying to decide what to make for dinner. Probably Kailua pork, rice and eggs.

AW, LB, it will be ok! You can go back to multiple pies in the future!

Spent most of yesterday afternoon at exstepmom's. I do love her, but oy, she is a bit of a difficult woman. Luckily, the things she says that are not based in reality are a lot less obnoxious than the things my mom says, so I can easily ignore them. She is spending SOOO much money on crap (she spent over $300 on a frigging lamp!), money that is really my sister's, the single mom working 2-3 jobs to pay for everything.

Looks like H going to the gym is maybe helping already? We had BCBC for the first time in almost 2 months! So there's hope

I don't mind the rain, but hydroplaning half the way of my commute thanks to the gian water piles on the roads is stressful, more so when I watch these IDIOTS trying to drive at speed limit or above and cut people off and tailgate. *shiver*

[sarack]

i am so excited about thanksgiving.. but i'm freakin because i'd like to drop a few more lbs this week and have been working out SUPER hard in the gym and it's slowly coming off but i'm worried i won't make it. cross your fingers i will.

i've released my shift at 2nd job and 4 people picked up and were denied. not happy about that. i really didn't want to work this week, i'm so set on getting to my goals that going to work is going to ruin it.. but it's whatever. maybe i should just quit. i really don't need that job.. it's just nice to pick up shifts if i want, but i'm sure they don't like that. rant over, kinda.

what is bcbc?
