I'm working all day, running when I get home, then probably reading and going to bed. 2 more days until DH is home for the weekend...these weeks are getting long and boring.
QOTD: black flats to work, Asics running shoes later, and probably black Reef flip flops when I get home tonight (I hate bare feet on the floor).
Today is my Friday! Thank God! I'm exhausted. At the end of today, I will have worked 40 hours in 4 days, which might not seem that much to you, but normally I work 35 hours spread out over 3.5 days with a day off in the middle. I'm just not used to this!
QOTD: I wear my sneakers pretty much all the time. It makes it easier to run after the baby. Apparently they are doing scientific studies about what your shoe choice says about your personality.

Good morning! Thank goodness it's Thursday, the weekend is finally here! We also got paid, finally! Anyway, today a guy DH and I went to school with and haven't seen in about 15 years is coming into town with another good friend of ours, so I think we're headed out to have dinner/drinks with them.
QOTD: I'm wearing black flats to work today...not sure what I'm wearing out, depending on where we're going it will either be sandals or heels? I honestly hope it's not heels!
Good morning! I am going to visit one of my dad's aunties today. She is in her eighties and I visit her about once a year. Maybe I will have time for a run later on in the day.
QOFD: I am wearing blue wedges with a little bow on them.

Morning everyone! Working from home today, so it'll be a day of work, getting some stuff done around the house, and figuring out dinner. Maybe a trip to the grocery in there as well...we'll see.
QOTD: Socks. If I leave the house, I'll slap on my Merrell Barefoot mary-janes, but otherwise, it'll be socks all day.
Morning. Just a work day for me. DH going out this evening to watch Ireland v Spain in the Euro 2012 match so I'll be at home alone with N. If only I had the final episode of Grey's Anatomy to watch it would all be ok (but no, it didn't record the other night for some bizarre reason... grrr...)
QOTD: I wore my dark pink walking shoes on my way into work and now I'm wearing my black work shoes - a bit of a heel, sort of maryjane-ish... mainly boring! This evening it will probably be my sheep slippers around the house!
Going to brunch with my friend. Then looking at some shops possibly. Then she is dropping her car off so it can be shipped to Korea. I'm going to stick around to make sure she finds a way back to Milwaukee. Since she didn't plan that out much. Lol.
I want to make apple muffins today. Maybe a nap since I stayed up to late chit chatting.
QOTD: Very ratty Tom's. I got terrible blisters from trying to break in new shoes. Now I only have one option.
Good morning! I'm working. I'm doing the mind-numbing job of entering all of my hard-copy edits into an electronic document. My goal is to finish today and never look at it again.
I am wearing converse sneakers, the low kind. Those seem to be the only acceptable sneakers to wear in France and I happily had a pair I loved before I even got here.

It's been a bad homesick day for me. I have sent in four job applications and been rejected outright for all of them, which is depressing me. But the worst homesick thing is my family is leaving on their annual 2-week cruise. DH came home to me crying in the dark tonight and he told me to go ahead and book the one my family is looking at next year so I could go with them. That was the sweetest thing ever!
QOTD: I didn't put shoes on today, just stay-at-home socks and slippers.

I am sorry DorothyinAus. I hope you feel better soon. I was feeling bad the other day when I found out my brother is going on vacation to the place we used to go to when we were children.

Thank you. I hate to bum out the board, but it's been a bad homesick couple of weeks for me. And it's nice to have somewhere with people I can talk to who understand.
My cousin told me my grandmother is a bit angry with me for not even trying to get home for my grandfather's funeral -- nevermind the fact that by the time I found out about it it was too late to get there in time. I'm trying not to let that get to me because she is batshit crazy and mean to boot, but it's still grating on my nerves that she thinks I missed it by choice. :@
Maybe I just need to channel my homesickness into anger at my grandmother and be happy I'm not home to get the full brunt of that.

Sorry, Dorothy...I've been feeling really down and homesick the last couple of days as well, it does sound like you've had it a bit worse *hugs* Sounds like you need one!
I have spent the whole morning doing laundry and cleaning up the house. I also took all of DDs stuffed toys and cleaned them...who knew there were so many?! Hopefully I will be able to get out of the house a bit later and maybe take DD to park or at least just get out for a walk, maybe it will help me feel better.
Shoes: Right now I am barefoot. I left my leopard print pink slippers downstairs When I make my way down I'll probably put them back on. If I go out I'll probably just wear my Etnies today.
