I didn't see a thread, so hope I'm not duplicating.
We are doing a Biggest Loser contest at work. We started last week and I just had my first weigh in this morning - I lost two pounds! This exercising and eating better really does work, lol.
Well done on the weight loss, poppy! That's great.
I review criminal records at work to determine eligibility for my programs. This morning I came across one that had a charge of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. The dangerous weapon listed was "cheese".
My baby has started moving in ways that make me just slightly uncomfortable (or he is just big enough to make me uncomfortable). After a rough start and then not feeling anything for what felt like FOREVER with my anterior placenta I am loving be able to be all fake complaining about this. I love it, please remind me of this post when I am for real complaining in the beginning of October.
I got a new car last night and have to go at lunch today to finish the paper work and pick up my car. I got a 2013 Honda Pilot in black. YAYYY!!!
I have a fair amount of work today and really need to get it done especially since I am going to take a 3 hour lunch but I don't feel like it.
I am embarrassed to admit this but I volunteered for a committee on our HOA and our first meeting is tonight. I am actually a little excited and kind of nervous. I still don't feel like an adult who owns a home sometimes. LOL
I'm glad to see you back here poppy! Good luck with the contest!
I'm not sleeping well lately. Insomnia and nightmares. There's a part of my past that I thought I had come to terms with. But now, due to some recent events, that part of my past is coming back around to face me in the present and I'm not sure how I should respond to this.
I'm being cryptic, I know. And I may post the details later. I'm still trying to formulate my thoughts about it. And I'm thinking that I need to go talk to a therapist about this (something I never did and should have) in order to sort out my feelings.
I always drink coffee while I'm straightening my hair in the morning in the bathroom. Today my H was shaving and getting all willy nilly with his razor flinging. He flung shaving cream into my coffee. Tsk tsk.

My husband was telling me the other day that he posted on some GOMI thread about modesty. I was kinda teasing him for it and he said "well, I want people to know that there Christian men out there that aren't misogynistic assholes." He's a good guy .
Yay, poppy! Similarly, rather than sit on the couch watching Big Bang Theory and NCIS reruns, last night DH and I both actually used the treadmill we stuck in the family room last year, and I did some yoga afterwards. We usually just kind of give up once we've got the kids in bed.
I ordered a venti iced latte this morning at Starbucks rather than just making coffee at home (thanks for being up for an hour for no reason last night, DS!), and the the barista accidentally made a grande instead. Since he would have just thrown it out anyway, he gave me that one too. Venti+grande=me being super buzzed this morning. I am literally vibrating just sitting here, lol.
All of the female bosses I have had, including the current one, have all been huge bitches. HUGE. why can't I find a nice boss who isn't a control freak?

I'm thinking about applying for a different position where I work. It would be in an entirely different department. I like where I work but if I dodn't apply I might not have another chance for a few more years.
I'm alone in the building again and I hate it. So boring and creepy.
When I took J to camp today one of the parents was trying to top the other parents about how many different camps his kid was going to over the summer. It was obnixious.

How many female bosses have you had?
5 ETA: OMG maybe I'm the common denominator here. Am I??
I did my normal SAHM thing all day yesterday and he happened to be around the whole time. My sister texted me last night about hanging out today and dh joked that she mentioned stuff to do that only a childless person would consider. I jokingly said "well I could be available for some of those things. I AM unemployed" and he was all "No. I am unemployed. You are DEFINITELY EMPLOYED".
whelp. i guess it's back to the kitchen where we can all enjoy ruling over our petty little fifedoms.
Whut?
since ALL FIVE of your female bosses have been bitchy control freaks, clearly it's a sign that women aren't cut out for workplace management. we need to be where we can assert our full domination, uninterrupted. i mean, that was the entire point of your post, right? to rag on woman bosses and point out that they suck? i'm just taking it to the next logical conclusion.
I am going to the aquarium by myself today. I need something to do to get me out of the house and I think some quiet time is needed.
An old friend of mine posted a long apology for his behavior. Thing is, he has terrible, really hurtful opinions he insists on sharing at every chance, even out of the blue! Things like we shouldn't have welfare, people on government assistance are lazy, uneducated, worthless, and need to just find ajob. Things like gay marriage is a sin and filthy, and that HIS personal beliefs are the only way to think.
He has been this way since before highschool and his hatefullness has only gotten worse with time. He has lost many friends because of it. He has never had a girlfriend, job, or gone to any sort of length to better himself, yet does not realize the intense irony in that.
My FI has no issues moving forward, but has only gotten to really know him over the past year, while his oldest friends, myself included, may not be able to accept it and move forward. We already had started to keep him out of the loop because of some of the shit he has said and done.
I'd like to believe he has changed, but I am not sure I can. A shitty situation all around that I wish I had an answer for.
