I have been working too much lately and am feeling drained. Vacation is in 4 weeks and seriously cannot come soon enough! We don't have any real plans; a couple days down the shore, lounging by the pool, just relaxing and getting my house in order.
I got a letter saying that DD will be receiving an award at school tomorrow. No idea what it's for but I am so proud of her.
H wants to talk about TTC but I think I'm done. M will be starting preschool in the September and our oldest is going to high school. I don't want to start over with the baby stuff again.
I'm sitting on the back steps with my sweet little traumatized dog who is still terrified of my backyard and has not yet once gone potty in it. Puppy mill fuckers can rot in hell.
Have you tried leashing her? Our puppy was very skiddish and scared (probably not nearly on the same level as your pup), but we found he was most comfortable on a leash outside.

I am now officially divorced!
From the time we walked into court it took less than 15 min to be finished. I was so worried I would be upset/sad afterwards, but all I felt was happiness and relief.
XH and I even had a nice chat afterwards.
Tomorrow is my birthday, Friday night I'm going out to celebrate with friends, and Saturday night BF is taking me out to a fancy resturant for dinner.
I don't think I've ever felt so good about my life.
toledo, you are so good and patient and that pup is lucky you rescued her. I hope she starts feeling more comfortable and safe soon.
I had pizza for dinner last night and was irritated that H wasn't home from work yet, so I heated up a couple more pieces to stuff in my face (b/c I like to eat my feelings and I'm PMSing). He got home while they were still heating up. I actually had them in front of me, on my plate, and then I decided they weren't worth it and went for a run instead. WILLPOWER. lol. I doubt this will ever happen again.
Also, I thought I broke my iphone during my run and I nearly cried. I kept it in my sports bra and the magic of my boobs (or more likely, my boob sweat, my swoobs) possessed it for hours afterward - random apps opening, making phone calls, trying to delete things. I put it in rice overnight and it seems to be okay today, thank God. I'm ordering an armband today!

I watched a documentary on MetalHeads last night and it made me realize I haven't been to a metal concert in two years. I really need to go to a concert now.

With all of the kid posts here I called my mom last night and asked her if I ever took off my diaper and smeared poo around and she was horrified, said no, and asked why I asking such an odd thing.
It's the first day of summer break for me. I'm meeting a friend for Mexican then a walk around the lake. And then I have a massage at 5. It's finally sunny too, I can't believe summer is here now. It was a brutal winter.
That sounds like a great day! I'm jealous of your sunny skies. It's cloudy and rainy and gloomy in the cities, again
I had a working interview yesterday that went really well. Way more work than interview but I *like* the work. It uses my writing skills a lot more. Only "issue" is the place was pretty quiet. People pretty much bow their heads and do their work. BUT I would rather do that with work I like than be someone's personal assistant and take calls/texts at 1 am
If I take the job I'll need the car, so we're looking for car seats that are easy to install so we can put them in and out of the nanny's car. They also have to be kind of cheap since we need two -- if we could spend $300 for both that'd be perfect. Based on the NTSA ratings I like the True Fit but I don't know if anyone has any experience with this one? ETA obligatory EmilieMadison tag

I sent D to the babysitter this morning so I have 3 hours free. I really should spend it cleaning but I just want to watch My Fair Lady and knit instead.
i think that those boxy hearse-looking scions and cars that look like them are so ugly that if one of them wants to merge or something and it wouldn't be totally out of line for me NOT to let them in, i don't. if a scion and another car are both waiting for my parking spot, if it wouldn't totally screw up my drive, i'll also back out so that the OTHER car has an easier time beating the scion into the space.
i've been doing this subconsciously for awhile now and just realized it this morning.

I got in a merge fight with a guy in one of those yesterday. I told him to go fuck himself after he cut me off and he told me he'd fuck me but I'm too bitchy and too white for him.
I told him that was fine, he was too ugly and too fat for me. For every 10 pounds of obesity that's 1 inch less of dick and he must have negative dick.
All the while H is laughing in my ear on the Bluetooth.

that's intense, yo. i don't think i've ever spoken to another driver, while driving. how could you even hear each other?

It was a parking lot that we were all trapped in a line for 45 minutes to exit. He came up from somewhere not in the line to cut in at the top.

My baby is 8 months old today . He is getting so big and doing so much now it's awesome to see.
My H and I were in bed last night looking at Pinterest showing each other things we thought were funny and we were just laughing and laughing so much that we were crying. It was so nice to laugh like that with him. We haven't done that in forever.
My period finally started but I still feel like a raging psychobitch. Fun times.
I am so glad my doctor took me off the atenolol. No more constant nausea, heartburn, excessive sweating, dizziness, or cold extremities. Fuck that shit made me miserable.
We are trying to get into the HARP program to reduce our mortgage. We just can't afford it anymore. We've never missed a payment in 7 years but we can't hold water anymore.
In order to get into the program Freddie Mac had to own the property by a certain date. We missed it by 11 days. 11 fucking days! Hopefully they can do something to help us.
