DH is coming home tonight, I can't wait to see him, but he is leaving on Sunday for a job 12 hours away. I am having a tough time looking forward to tonight and tomorrow because all I can think about it how long we are going to go without seeing each other after that. I have to get over it and enjoy the time we've got.
I am really tired of covering for people while they are out. Today it is two people, and I don't understand how they just don't get it. 3 people's jobs in 8 hours people....something is not getting done. I am so happy I don't get paid enough to give a shit.

Despite bombing not only for roaches, but for fleas as well, they're still around. I can't sleep as I feel them biting me here and there. I can't WAIT for tonight. I'm going on a H-free overnight with some of my gal pals. I can't wait to have a night from a roach/flea/H infested apartment.
I'm still crossing my fingers for the "yes" for the Geico job. Any day now. Any day...
I'm watching a couple of cats for a friend of mine while they do a follow up spray to the bombing that occurred at her apartment. I wish we rented. We could've gotten an exterminator without hesitation, but H is balking at shelling out the cost of one...at the expense of my sanity and my body. Grumble, grumble, bitch, bitch.

Won't your friend's cats just bring fleas back to their just-bombed apartment?

I brought that up to her...but I'm her only recourse (since being unemployed in the vicinity). She only found out about it yesterday when the rules at her apartment dictate at least a week's notice. She's taking the risk regardless.
ETA: Her apartment got bombed for bed bugs. I feel bad for her...she's had to throw away 2 living room sets and her bed because of them.

Ugh. If I ever get a bug infestation, remind me to just burn my house to the ground. This all sounds miserable.

Trust me, if I had a job and the money, I would've just said "F you, H" and called the exterminator myself. I'm tired of smelling Raid in the house because that's his solution to the problem. All it's doing is potentially getting my cats very ill, since they're low to the ground. He douses the area where they eat in it, but doesn't clean it up. I have to clean it up. I've since taken the liberty of hiding the Raid from him. He gets it back when he grows up.
I'm stressing out about our rafting trip next month. MIL flaked out on me and now won't be watching Hart. My stepmom and dad said they'd love to keep him, but have concert tickets that Saturday night. She offered to get a sitter for that night, but if we can't find one, I have to find someone else to watch him Saturday....
Woo-hoo!!!
As soon as I finished typing that, our regular sitter just texted me and said she could work that night!
I made DH brownies and got him a card yesterday as kind of an apology for beeing assy lately. I haven't slept well in 2 weeks thanks to the LO and that awful "vacation" and feeling overwhelmed.
Henry wanted to play from 2:30-4:00 AM. I got up at 6, showered and did my hair and then around 6:30 said "hey, I have that overtime, maybe I'll sleep until he wakes up and go in a little late". 6:40 Henry decides he hates me and ruins my plan.
New plan: DH will pick Henry up from daycare at the normal time. I will leave work early, go home and take a NAP! A NAP! On a Friday afternoon!
I'm sure something will ruin my plan though. That seems to be happening a lot lately.
Also, our computer tech guy is coming to update the office server and it will likely be down from noon and through the res of the day. I could sit here and twiddle my thumbs, but my supervisor sent an email out saying we'll likely just shut down for the day and go home - woo hoo!!!
Emily slept through the night last night. WHOOPPEEE!! Not sure why I'm dragging ass today.
I really need to make myself a resume. I don't know why I keep procrastinating. FEAR OF UNKNOWN THINGS! And loss of good vacation time? I don't know.
Omg that is awesome on the sleeping!! My little asshole, I mean angel, was up laughing and playing from 2:30 - 4:30. WHY!!!!!!
Make your resume and apply. Apply to anything you might be interested in. I get scared to apply to things and dh does too because of the fear of the unknown. BUT the good news is, you can interview and even be offered the position and you don't have to take it. So what is the risk of seeing what's out there?
I'm annoyed with my MIL/FIL. They are throwing a BBQ at a park. Awesome! I agreed we'd go to it several weeks ago. I just found out the fucking park is TWO hours away. WHY would they do this? FUCK. So that's four hours of driving on Sunday just to go to a BBQ. Nobody we know lives out there, they just like the park.
I'm also kind of annoyed because Sunday is when I like to relax, maybe leisurely make my way to the gym, cook something, get ready for the week, etc. Now I get to spend four hours in the car and four hours baking in the 100 degree temperatures. Yay!

:Y:
The financial aspect of being furloughed one day a week kind of sucks, but so far I'm really liking the very quiet Fridays when half of my office is out, and the extra day to do fun stuff with my kids and get little projects done around the house on Mondays when I'm off. It's making me lean toward going part time in a private sector job once my current project wraps up rather than pushing for a promotion here, at least for a few years while the kids are in elementary school.
My outfit (especially the shoes) today are totally inappropriate for the pouring rain outside, but I don't care because I feel very put together today.
I dropped my iPhone in the tub last night. I'm blaming the baby - 4 days overdue, she doesn't want to come out until I have no phone to reach anyone. Clever girl!
Actually though, the rice trick seemed to work but I don't have sound.... Any suggestions?? I don't want to buy a new one
I'm annoyed that H assured me my outfit was fine today, but in reality I look like a schlub. This is probably the most casual I've ever dressed for work, and I want to go home and change because I'm not sure why I thought flip flops and jean capris were a good idea.
I'm also annoyed with the disorganization in the department I work in. They are now sending people home to work here and there, instead of all of us at once like they promised, oh, two years ago. Mostly I'm cranky about this because the training class I need to get sent home isn't being offered again until next year.
