I have a huge to do list of things I'd like to get done before I go back to work on Wednesday, but instead I'm screwing around online and drinking wine. I'm also considering making my H go take care of our friend's cat by himself.
I made the pizza crust recipe that make thick, bubbly, doughy crusts for dinner. My primary motivation in chosing the recipe was that the crusts would be yummy to drizzle with chocolate balsamic vinegar.
I have sat on the couch for way too long. I felt like I was becoming a part of it. I started to invent things to do, like organize the kitchen cabinets.
My boss does not care if I o in tomorrow or not. However, I am an accountant at year end so I would like to get stuff done. However, MIL put us thu some crap this weekend and now I am almost too exhausted to go.
Not going to go to work until Wednesday, but I gotta still wake up ass crack of dawn to prep everything..which sorta makes me sad, was hoping to sleep in until 7.

We have this little ledge shelf thingy in the powder room. I guess I wasn't paying attention and when I got up I hit my head on the corner of it and have a nice size gash in my hairline. I am not pleased.

I am taking a large certification test on Friday for work. I studied for about 2 hours today then sat on the couch and complained about not feeling well (I'm 9 weeks pregnant) while H cleaned our whole house for the NYE party we're having tomorrow. I feel pretty worthless both professionally and personally today.
We were the worst Brunch customers today. I feel so awful! When we got to the restaurant, Kirklette was acting a little loopy, and kept saying she wanted to go home. We ignored it,thinking she was just being a 2.5 year old pushing boundaries. When the waitress brought out our plate, Kirklette refused to eat. What kid turns down strawberry waffles with whipped cream? So, I leaned in to feed her from across the table.I saw her face change. Then ...
PROJECTILE VOMIT 3 TIMES! All over the table, floor, herself. My poor baby. Other than during the newborn stage, she had never thrown up before. She hates being dirty, so she started screaming. Mr. Kirkette tried to clean the table but there weren't enough napkins. Meanwhile,I was busy stripping the baby in the middle of the aisle. The neighboring tables were all very gracious. It was just too much. It took 3 staff people to clean up. We apologized profusely.
When we walked out, Kirklette was only wearing a snow jacket, a pull up, and boots. My dress was covered in barf. We left a 40% tip.
Oh my, that sounds awful. I hope she feels better, and I'm glad the patrons around you were gracious.

This might not meet the criteria of boring. But one of dh's friends spent the night last night. DS didn't sleep well so I was kind of walking around in a daze this morning and totally forgot the guy was here. I got my coffee started and walked to the bathroom not bothering to shut the door. Dropped my pants, sat down...and looked up. There was dh's friend sitting in the chair across the hall with a deer in headlight's expression.

I am super annoyed to have to work tomorrow after I was told our office would be closed, then told last week that we would not be closed and I have to work my normal day. Then today my son got sick, so now I might have to call out anyway if he is not well enough to go to school tomorrow. I am irritated at the whole thing.
Not a confession, just a gripe. I have a wicked flu, and I have to go work retail tomorrow. Also, I was going to go my friends for dinner tomorrow night and she was going to make us lobster, but now I can't risk eating seafood and drinking because I'm sick
I tried adding some chocolate balsamic vinegar to my chocolate chip cookies. I forgot to compensate for the extra liquid. So they spread too much and are really flat.
I, however, keep eating them to decide if I ruined them or not.
In the past 7 hours all I've accomplished is sex, a bath & a long nap. I'm not planning to do anything else today. I've definitely learned to take it easy this pregnancy for the first time.
DH had to trim me up the other day. I didn't feel well, but it was getting out of hand and we had an u/s appt. One of the joys of pregnancy and not being able to see things as easily.

DH and I plan to join the gym by the end of the weekend.
In the meantime: 1. We drove far to go to a diner yesterday, and ate a ton of fried potatoes, french toast, sausages, eggs, etc. that can likely feed 6 people on average.
2. We cashed in an all-you can eat Brazilian BBQ Groupon last night.
3. I made a breakfast feast of bacon, eggs, sausages and rice this morning. Can likely feed over 4.
4. We just plowed through a home-made burrito buffet of refried black beans, onions, rice, salsa, cheese, ground beef and potatoes. Again, can likely feed about 8.
It's like we're having a last meal weekend. Tomorrow night's party will not be any better, either.
I can't believe I'm saying this but I want to go back to work just to get out of the house! Been off since the 21st and I'm off this week too-ugh! At least tommorrow I have a bunch of errands to run. My kids sometimes drive me crazy!
