I went to work just long enough to nearly freeze to death, only to turn around and pick up my little puke machine at daycare. Now we are nice and snuggled in on the couch in our warm house. The 'feels like' temp right now is -30, so leaving the house this morning kind of sucked. My car made quite a protest. I don't blame it!
Pretty meh. My back spasms aren't getting any better. But having H put me on the couch before I woke up made my day pretty awesome. And Lillie hasn't been a pain in my butt she knows I don't feel well and has been curled up on the couch sleeping and chasing squirrels in her sleep

Good!
L woke me up early but got the house picked up. Was able to leave her with my parents with no crying at all (this is big). Got a good quote from the tax guy. Now getting my car washed and its off to the zoo with my parents and L.
One bonus being home today-I am getting some work done at home, and...I finally got the Christmas tree down. It has never been up this late before and was driving me nuts!
I'm being super lazy today and I'm skipping the gym. I am happy because our new iphones just got here and we ordered them on Saturday. They were supposed to be here Wednesday.

The shop manager is on vacation for the week so I am stuck doing everything. And my GM "came to help" which equated to him going in to an office for an hour to make a bunch of calls unrelated to our shop and leave, haha. Oh so helpful. I hope I can keep my head above water this week... Step #1 is get off GBCN ;-)
Ugh. Well, it's actually relatively busy at the museum, so that's good. But I'm super pissed because the janitor cleaned out the fridge and freezer and threw out my lunch. On a positive note, I took zantac 150 for my hives this morning and it really seems to have helped! Yay.
Also, since I volunteered to work today on the holiday, I'm taking Friday off.
Pretty good! It's 11 and I have dinner cooking in the crockpot, bread is rising, a load of laundry has been done, and there has been minimal whining from my kid. Good day so far .
Hope your DD feels better soon, malibu! Where were you yesterday? We thought you were coming; you were missed
Malibu, I'd kill for your coat right now, I'm f-f-f-f-freezing.
My day is okay. It is distractingly cold in our office - the guys in our warehouse/studio said it's only 59 degrees in there :/ And, yes, my one coworker is still in his jorts and t-shirt!
I have my book club dinner tonight so I'm anxious for the work day to be over.
Mine's been good. I relish the days I get to spend at home alone with Hart but I get kind of wistful for my past job when I could sah 3 days a week with him
We baked muffins this morning, went by my old office to say Hi to some people, then Hart and I went to lunch with some friends - he was awesome the whole time. We came home, played on our respective laptops (Hart got a Leap Pad for Christmas) and I just put him down for a nap.
I'm getting ready to watch the inaugeration on DVR and fold yesterday's laundry
Do you have popsicles in the house? If I don't have that around, I suck on ice cubes.
I don't, but that's a good idea. H is making a Costco run on his way home so I'll have him pick some up for me. YUM.
It's a good way to get some fluid in you without putting too much in your stomach at once. He can also think about getting the pedialyte pops that you freeze so you can get some good electrolytes from the pops.

I was just about to say, pedialyte pops helped H get fluid when he was sick with the flu after Christmas.
Good- we had already gotten a lot done over Sat-Sun, so the holiday meant that we got a bunch of stuff done that we've been putting off.
Plus they got the results back at my OB/MW office from the samples they sent to the lab on Friday, and I don't have pre-eclampsia, and the high BP I've had at the last few appointments appear to be just me worrying over my BP being high.

Good! We had our first real Music Together class, which was really fun. Ran a couple of errands, had lunch and J finally decided to take a nap. I have my favorite gym class tonight, too, which always makes for a nice end to Mondays.
OK. Every year on this day we go out to lunch for H's grandma's birthday, and we always go to the same place. My H is working so I went alone with our 3 year-old...that's who grandma wants to see, anyway
I ended up ordering something different than I usually get & it was terrible. I ordered it because my in-laws were paying and I felt bad ordering my normal meal because it's pretty expensive. So now we're home and I'm inhaling cinnamon-glazed popcorn to fill the void in my stomach. Oh, and I'm washing it down with a can of Coke because I stupidly bought a 12-pack at the store.
Mine's been great! I'm working from home today, so that's always nice. In between calls I've been prepping dinner and packing. I also just had a call with my boss and she told me that I got a promotion, effective Jan. 1st. Woohoo!

Great day. Have today off. Did my long run which went GREAT, went to yoga, did laundry, dinner is in the crock pot and now I'm lounging with dh who is also off. Been a great day! I do feel like baking....... Wonder what I should make???
