The vaccine debate has now spilled over into dogs. I'm in a FB group for people who own shelties. Someone posted last night about how the rabies vaccine killed her dog. Of course, someone else chimes in that the same thing happened to her. Cue all the people now saying they won't vaccinate their dogs. Oy

Last night I went through the totes of baby girl clothes I had for dd and it was so sad. She went through some of it with me and just looking at them I can't believe she was that little. I let her keep some of the cute things for her dolls. I now have two totes of things to consign and one bag full for goodwill. Now my downstairs looks trashed because there is stuff everywhere! I had to go through and see what baby stuff I had left and did that in the process.
Our zoo is opening a big new exhibit today and randomly, Betty White is going to be there for the opening ceremonies. I love her and the zoo and I was going to go but it's my boss' first day back from leave and I have a million meetings on my calendar today that I can't miss. I'm sad.

I'm off today until Tuesday! The cleaning lady is coming today, I can't wait. I'm so excited for the long weekend with friends and the weather is going to be perfect.
I've been trying to eat healthy for awhile, around 8 months I'd say. I lost 25 lbs and eating healthy has really just stuck around. Except for yesterday. I ate Taco Bell and Culvers yesterday. Two tacos chips and cheese, soda, a burger, fries, frozen custard. Today my stomach is killing me. Maybe this belongs in a flameful thread.

Today is my last day of work. My contract is through the end of June but I have so much vacation accrued that today is my last day in the office. It's going to be filled with 4 tough conversations and I just want to say "f this" and go for lunch and pack my office and GBCN all day.
My reward for getting through today is super fun plans tonight. Just need to hold out...
sometimes I think I'm losing my hearing because all I say around M is huh/what/repeat that.
I'm sure my years in music did damage to my hearing and I've been getting stressed out about it but I just realized that I don't have this issue with anyone else in the entire world and HE is the problem. M stands for Mumbles.
This is week 4 of having H's family members visiting us. His brother came for 3 weeks and left yesterday, and now his sister and husband and their 2 kids are here until Sunday. I WANT MY HOUSE BACK!! I already told the 3 week stay is never happening again. Ever.
3 weeks with my parents (on top of moving to a new house) really tested our marriage. Never again. LOL.
I can hear again! I went back to the doctor and the flushing was successful. OMG, the relief
In fact the world sounds very loud right now. I am wondering if my hearing has been impaired for awhile.
The last time I got my ears vacuumed out I felt like the world was on stereo. Even putting my key into the damn ignition, I was like, "When did THAT get so loud?" And then I realized how loud I'd probably been talking and was embarrassed.
I went running last night for the first time in forever and my knees hurt today. Presumably from the stress of hauling all my fat around. lol. I'm back on MFP; I'm tired of being this weight.
I know everyone has their comfort zone but you look awesome! It looks like you bounced right back from the pregnancy.
I didn't sleep well last night. I was glued to Creepy Pasta a few days ago reading scary stories. I thought I was over my irrational fear of ghosts and stuff because none of the stories bothered me at all, and I was able to sleep without worrying about something creeping around ready to chew my face off. Lol. H left for work yesterday afternoon, so I spent all last night freaking out. I'm an idiot. Never reading creepy stories ever again.
Today's the day I sort the Tupperware drawer. Ugh.
She went from a p/t job to f/t time last month with another company doing the same work. Her old boss showed up at her new job last night drunk (and her 16 yo daughter in tow) to "confront" my friend - yelling, making threats. They got everything on camera, with audio.
Her new boss was really great about it. But she was mortified.
I hate the atmosphere at work these last couple of months. Co-workers hardly chat anymore and when they do it seems to never really include me, which feeds my paranoia. 3 out of 4 of the people I sit with are on the organising committee for the office's annual NY party and they keep giggling/whispering about stuff. It's only bloody May, I don't know how I'm going to survive this for over 6 months.
I feel like I'm starting to move on with my life! We're probably not even going to file for divorce for another month or two, but I'm starting to get the hang of living alone again. I'm playing soccer 2 nights a week, I joined a choir, I started going to church again, and I have a ton of fun social things to go to this weekend!
I am in charge of invitations for a shower. Due to previous drama I have decided I'll do whatever the guest of honor wants. This unfortunately includes sending an electronic STD that says "gifts appreciated but not necessary" and then sending a paper invite with the registry printed on it. I am hardcore cringing.
A friend's friend died yesterday. She was only 33 and I am stopping at nothing to find out what happened.
I am getting my hair colored tonight, as I realized the other day that my roots at the top of my head/my part are like, 60% gray.
Same thing with a friend of mine too, but 32. I don't even know how to try to figure out what happened. But I need to know because I will dwell on it (I'm 34 so it's extremely unsettling someone so young just dies suddenly)

I got a wish at work for the first eight, but bet I will have to work the last four. This girl I went to school with is complaining on Facebook about how they need to raise minimum wage to 11 bucks an hour. She is tired of not being able to afford things being a pizza delivery driver. I remember making 5.15 an hour back in the day.

Got urinated on today.
Also got bit, which is starting to really hurt, but I am most offended about the pee. I've been bit before. Ain't never been chased around a room while a kid shoots at us.
