lilafowler Ellie is seriously going to be so deliciously cute with glasses, just you wait. Will she have to do any other type of treatment, like patching?
Thank you! No, they think that the glasses will be all she needs. They said this may correct it and she might not even need them in a year or two.
bex1973 she looks adorable!!! Those frames are cute! Ellie is 4 btw.
Thanks The transition with a 4 year old won't be too bad. My nephew just turned 4 & started wearing them too. My sister did a reward chart for the 1st few days, he got a sticker for each hour he wore them & then got to trade his stickers for something bigger. She only had to do it for about 3 days & he was totally fine with them.
But I still stand by my back up pair advice! I don't know if it's because Morgan's are so little but when she breaks them it takes about a week to get them fixed so she has had to go without both times.

Yesterday, I decided to wear my red heels with an all black dress. I've had these heels for years and I've always gotten a lot of compliments on it. Well, when I walked, they were making more clacking noises than normal. I didn't give it much thought and I went to my meeting with the owner and contractor for one my my projects.
As we walked around the building, the noise got louder and louder. Once we got outside, I found out my heel was detaching from the rest of my shoe and I was walking like that all day! I had to pull the contractor to the side and borrow some masking tape to save my shoe. By the end of the day, the second shoe was trying to do the same.

I interviewed for two jobs last Tuesday and I am FREAKING out waiting for an offer for one of them. It's everything I need right now - more money (with the potential for WAY more money), compressed schedule, completely different department but still within the VA. Ugh. I know offers started going out yesterday (They were hiring 18) so I'm hoping I'm on the list to be called today. If I don't get this, I will cry. I'm totally qualified for it and should be a guaranteed hire but you never know with veteran's preference point, etc.

So we (H, DD, and I) had been planning on going to an airshow this weekend. We like them and go fairly often, so I was expecting the standard bring your camp chairs, sit on the hot tarmac, bring some sandwiches and snacks. Well, H got tickets for the show through work because they're free. He just picked up the tickets. They're for the chalet. That means: A/C, free food and potentially an open bar. I am ridiculously excited.
We found out yesterday that Ellie has a lazy eye and needs glasses to help correct it.
I'm bummed and trying to get over myself. The thing is-I LOVE glasses on adults and teens (FFS H has glasses-dorky guys with glasses is kind of my type) but glasses on little kids makes me sad.
I know this is SO lame and they make really cute kids glasses now but...
Apparently I'm vain about my child. I need to get the fuck over myself. (Sorry Kev-you've already had to deal with my crazy whining on this ❤️).
I have a lazy eye. My parents suck and never corrected it. She will be adorable in glasses, but not so adorable as a 30 plus year old with a lazy eye.

lilafowler My brother wore glasses for less than a year in 2nd grade to correct a lazy eye. Now he's in his 30s and still sees 20/20, while I've been blind my entire life. I want to kill him.
But anyway, my point is that if it's just the lazy eye, the glasses are most likely temporary.
Aqua therapy seems to be slooooowly working. I still have back pain daily but I am noticing that it's not AS bad. I am so happy and I feel good to be exercising again!
I am going out tonight for a girls night. One of my close friends invited me, and I don't know everyone but it's a good chance for me to get out for a night and to make new friends. EXCITED!
H just informed me of the possibility we will be traveling (moving) for his job in the future.
First place would be Indiana, then maybe California! I'm not sure how I feel about finding new schools (just preschool) for the kids though. Or being far from my friends/family.
It's a little exciting, and scary.
Indiana doesn't have Common Core, so that's a big plus!
After posting in ootd, my favorite purse, and bootd, I have decided I need to step up my fashion game. Ha. I won't but I need to
My crazy ass grandma gave me a picnic table. How wrong is it to sell it?
Not wrong at all.
I have been trying to do better in the fashion department as well. It's taking time, but it's so worth it. I need to get a couple of nice purses. I have been trying to acquire some nice dresses as of late. I already did shoes and got myself some nice pearls from Blue Nile and sunglasses.

I can't get over some things in my new dept at work. One of our major systems has not worked correctly in three days. Three days! This is the system we all use, most of the day, and it's broken. We can do things in it, but it's not transferring into other systems. This seems to be no big deal to the dept head. Um.... IT IS!
Last night I caught Bruno Mars' show at Summerfest. OMG it was amazing!! I can't even describe it. Definitely shot up to one of my top 5 best concerts I attended. If you get a chance to see him, go.
The downside was I didn't get to bed until 3am (the show ended at 11pm). We were stuck in a parking lot for more than an hour trying to get out. It sucked sooo much. But that's over and done with so yeah BRUNO!! Lots of coffee today.

I'm frustrated. I've been feeling weird - light headed, headaches, crampy. I've taken 7 tests and gotten 5 clear negatives, and 2 (what I believe are) evaporation lines that showed up after a couple hours.
My period isn't due for another few days. I want to know what's going on inside my body. Am I dying? Am I pregnant? WTF.

I have tickets for August! I haven't gone to a concert in forever but I always love the shows he puts on on TV.

I am so old. My flameful is NOTHING is worth me not being in my bed by 11pm at the latest. And that's REALLY REALLY late for me to be out.
The good: I'm keeping my BG relatively level lately and I've increased my exercise. The bad: I went off effexor (AD) and I've been dizzy and nauseous off and on since sunday. Shoot me.
