this extra half hr of sleep is really beneficial to me. i know its only 30 minutes, but i feel like i have so much more time to get ready and get to work. and waking up isnt a struggle.
Back at work. I have to share a conversation with my old boss
OB: can you work Wednesday? We really need you. Me: ok (canceling birthday plans, cramming in all my schoolwork in my head) OB: oh good-looking I'll offer co-worker a 2nd day off-road she worked hard last week. Me: :/
Oh well, it's more money, I'm just so slammed with school and work that I need those days to study/workout/feel human.

So it's official! We are 20 weeks. It's the half way point. Yay! We have our ultrasound on Thursday afternoon, and are not going to find out gender until Sunday. We are having a gender reveal, and doing the "give the baker the envelope" with the gender info inside. Which reminds me, did you guys want me to just tell you? or do you guys wanna guess first?

My knee is still bugging me but both the PT and chiropractor worked on it yesterday so I think it's more sore from being worked on. PT said I could keep running but that I need to do fewer hills on long runs. DONE haha.
H is red eye-ing to Cancun for a work trip tonight and will be gone the rest of the week. Poor thing haha. It occurred to me this morning that if I clean the house tonight it will stay clean the rest of the week, so I'm hoping I can stay awake late enough to do that after he leaves. If not tonight tomorrow night.
Sorry, I wasn't clear. We don't know yet and won't know until late Sunday. We plan on having them write down the gender in two envelopes and not tell us. One is to go to the baker and one is to make sure the bakery doesn't screw it up. But I'll spill then.

Happy Birthday Mr. uwhuskygirl!
Last night I had a dream that H and I were chilling in our living room and a parrot (or maybe it was a cockadoo) started to bite me. I hid under a blanket, but it wouldn't stop. And H did NOTHING. So like a reasonable person, I was annoyed with him this morning because of his dream self's lack of help.

Life is pretty boring here. H hates his new job. I am sitting by the phone today waiting to hear back from an interview I had yesterday. I also have another interview tomorrow that I need to prep for.

That sucks he hates it. I remember you saying he that he was following his passion.

Well, with James....ugh. It's dumb and I'm going to sound like a total b.
He was home most of the day yesterday - by like noon. He picked Tman up from school and I worked late...not super late, but a couple extra hours. I get home and he has rented a rug doctor. With Sadie's problems last week, we needed to clean the carpet, that's true, but since he got it last night, that meant that I had to do it after I got home from work. It was hot and I was sweating and so tired because I had worked all day and now had to do this. He didn't offer to help at all, just said that he got his days mixed up and thought I was off tomorrow (today) and that I'd have all day to do it. He did make dinner which involved heating some stuff up from Trader Joes, but then when I went into the kitchen later, he was just sitting on his computer playing games while the dishes sat in the sink. I went to do them, but then I realized that the dishwasher was full of clean dishes. Unloading the dishwasher is my least favorite chore ever and so that sent me over the edge. I lost in on him for getting that dumb rug doctor and not even trying to help with it or doing the dishes. He kept saying that he thought he was doing something nice and that he got his days mixed up. I told him he didn't think it through and that meant that I was running around trying to get everything done and he wasn't helping at all. He ended up taking the thing back when I was done and as soon as the house was in reasonable shape, I went to bed. He slept on the couch.

I'm sorry georgeharrison. (ETA after reading your follow up) I don't think you sound like a bitch at all. If I had walked in to that scenario I would have been equally pissed.
monsterz - How come your H hates it? Not what he expected? Or just the struggles of starting something completely different?
Fairly boring day here today. At work, and have my annual review this afternoon. It should be interesting because while I have a boss here, he doesn't really direct my day to day work.
Picking the kids up from Boys & Girls Club and then E has piano. I'm debating squeezing in a run, but am having some issues with my right glute. Dinner, then we may take E up for this wall-ball clinic for lacrosse from 7-8pm at our neighboring elementary school.

The work thing. I told you guys that they were going to make me a part-time employee. My boss told me a while ago that I should ask for a raise. I was going to wait for my contract to be up at the end of June.
What HR offered me was exactly equivalent to what I'm getting now. Review/raise time is at the first of the year, so that would mean, if I accept that I will be stuck at the same rate until at least February. I told him I was disappointed by that and he basically gave me a "take it or leave it" attitude. I hate it, but I'm going to have to talk to my boss about this. The HR guy said that in a couple months I could ask for a raise, but if he's not going to give me the extra now, why would he give it to me in a couple months. That's just dumb.

And to clarify, by equivalent, I don't mean the same rate. I mean a lower rate because I'm going to be on the payroll. If he would have offered me the same rate AND put me on payroll, that would have been fine.
georgeharrison that sucks... all of it. If I had walked in and H wanted me to steam clean I would have been like fffffuuuuuuu no I worked all day. Sorry it is a rough day
