I made the Crimea River joke yesterday. DH asked where I heard it because there's no way I thought that on my own. What? I've been a Justin Timberlake fan since I was in a training bra and thats one of my favorite songs. I even sang it when I said it. He gives me no credit.
I got my test results from my physical and my lipids are high. Does that mean cholesterol? My doc is out of town so i don't see her for the follow up until early April. It freaked me out, i want to be healthy and be around for DS when I'm old. I worked out for the first time in a loooooong time (like years maybe). It was a Hulu 30 minute mom workout and it was great.
Then I put together my new Dyson and vacuumed the living and dining rooms. This thing is amazing.
My kids both had little athletic accomplishments the last couple of days and I'm feeling proud of them. They were both so proud of themselves. It was so adorable. Also, hearing about the SAT changes made me feel nervous. I know DD's going to be an absolute WRECK when she has to take them. In 8 years. LOL I'm already mentally preparing myself.
My H made a "tea" of fresh ginger, honey and fresh lime juice for my cold. I can't taste anything so I'm very sad that i didn't enjoy it. I did chew on a slice of the ginger just to feel the peppery burn. I'm weird like that.
My DH just got back from a 2 week long business trip to freaking Korea. I don't know how single moms do it. DD is sleeping over with her cousin on Saturday and I'm so excited to have a kid free 18 hours!
I hung out with my little tonight. She talked at me for an hour and a half and I'm in such a better mood than I was earlier tonight. I really enjoy hanging out with her and think I get as much out of it as she does if not more. I'm sorry I waited so long to sign up; I'm not a kid person and I really thought I'd hate it.
I was so excited I just got totally caught up on Parenthood on hulu plus. I went in to the thread to talk about it which I have never been able to do and realized there was an episode tonight which isn't on hulu yet. Womp womp
DH put a huuuuge crack in my windshield like 2 years ago. Maybe 3? I'm finally getting it fixed. I got quotes, picked the low guy. They were coming out to my work tomorrow to do it in the parking lot. Now DH decides to give a shit, decides the amount is too high, demands that I cancel and he's going to call and get quotes tomorrow because his stupid jeep buddies said they got their windshield replaced for like $100. Grrr I want my windshield fixed asshole!
Now that I have my new computer, i can't really blame my typing on the keyboard. I kind of have to face reality that it's my hands. Yes, some problems are autocorrect, but my hands are shaky, and I simply just get my fingers jumbled sometimes.

"I was thinking about getting off on demand, but it sounds like I should be glad that I didn't"
I just finished reading the Harry Potter books (I know I'm late....shut up) and I don't want it to be over. I even read the last one a second time to make it last a little longer. I want to know what happens to the kids!
I'm sad. FIL is really not doing well. He is having trouble walking, speaking, he can't remember most things, etc. H is (obviously) really stressed and sad, and I am so sad for him and his whole family. I just don't know what to say to H. I just try to hug him and let him vent or cry or whatever he needs to do, but I feel stupid because I have nothing to say.
This has by far been the worst year of our lives
He has cancer, right? My MIL died in 2012 from cancer. H and I are SO different with regards to grief. He was more stoic, was able to function, etc. I ended up almost trying to 'force' him to show emotion. I learned to back off and just be there for him as needed. It was hard b/c it went against my nature. I think I actually cried more.
Now, my dad is terminally ill and the above remains true. We have drastically different ways of expressing our feelings. As horrible as the past few years have been with the health of our parents/death, we've learned a lot about each other and it's brought us closer.
Hugs
Yes, brain cancer.
I am sorry to hear about your dad and MIL. It is so hard to lose parents.
