Sunday Randoms

[pantsoffdanceoff]

In my quest to "adult the shit" out of my life I am up early today and cleaning this disaster area I call my house. I set a timer on my phone and each area of the house gets 30 minutes. I just did my master bathroom and now I'm on to my guest bath.

I'm annoyed I haven't received a shipment notification for my Nordstrom order(s). I spent so much that I want to know what works and what doesn't so I can return accordingly.

I'm meeting a friend later for lunch. I haven't seen her in probably 2 years or more. We are meeting at Cracker Barrel and I'm stupid excited about chicken n' dumplings.

bl , how did your date go this weekend?

I need to clean so bad but there is a hot man sleeping in my bed so I'm trying to be considerate! I have a date with other dude at 1:00 and I need to get it done by then but I still have time I guess.

My son comes home today! He's been with his dad almost 2 months. I miss him more than I can express in words. It's always tough for him to come home though. The transition is hard on him. And he knows that means school is starting too. I'm planning a mini end of summer vacation for us though either to the waterpark or beach.

mp sorry to hear about your breakup, lots of hugs.

pantsoffdanceoff it was really great. Tipsy Disney is definitely the way to go! According to my iphone pedometer we walked about 13 miles throughout the day. We didn't go to sleep until around 3am on Friday night/Sat morning and then got up at 8am and then made it until almost 10pm at the park last night. We laughed and had so much fun, I am pretty excited about him.

I picked the restaurant for dinner and thought it would be around 40ish a person, but when we got there it was closer to 70 a person. I insisted that I pay since it was my pick and I would never expect a guy to pay for something that expensive without knowing it or asking if it was okay beforehand. Between hotel, other meals, and drinks he probably spent around 500-600 over the two days, so I felt me grabbing the dinner was reasonable. I hope I didn't offend him though he seemed semi okay with it, but I could tell it made him feel a little weird.

I am exhausted and going to rest, rehydrate, and do laundry for the rest of the day.

Went to the air show yesterday. It was ssoooooo freakin' hot. The kids were miserable, but we managed to stay to see the thunderbirds. There were 6 planes and every once in awhile one, or two, would sneak up on us while we were watching another stunt. We caught on and I was able to get this one on video. Boy were they loud!

[sweetchix]

Is my video up for anyone? I can't see it

No video sweetchix -- but sounds fun!

This weekend has been weird. My uncle passed away yesterday morning and my mstbxSIL eloped (sort of) in Vegas last night. I'm in the final push to get my class prepared so I'm trying to focus on work.

I sent a text to the guy I've been seeing saying I think we have different dating expectations and should go our separate ways. It's for the best, but I hate the ups of getting excited about someone followed by the down of them not being compatible with me.

I get to see Trainwreck today...yay!!!! I might get a pedicure, too.

[1confused1]

I love my kids, but holy shit, we need a break from each other. It's very hard when they expect to see their dad and then they don't get to.

I'm trying to cut out the processed carbs from my diet. So I'm making a hot and sour soup and a Cobb salad for the week. I'm pretty excited about both of them. I'm also going to start dry brushing. I hope it improves my skin. I'm also drinking beef broth to help curb my hunger. Let's hope this works!

I have lots of things to do today before my trip to Charleston tomorrow, but it's SO HOT so I'm being lazy in the house with my animals. I haven't even walked the pup yet today.

Is it fall yet?

I had a peeping tom (I hope that's all he was) last night. For those of you who don't read/lurk on ML. Still weirded out. That's all I have.

Just a few weeks ago I was taking a nap on my couch in my living room, and woke up to discover two boys (pre-teen aged, probably) staring at me through the window. I yelled at them to get the fuck off my porch. 

I know it's not the same, but I hope you feel better soon. It sucks to feel violated in your own home.

After no power for three days all the food in the fridge and freezers was lost. Today I worked on cleaning them out and started replacing some good. I think I'm going to use this opportunity to focus on freezer meals and making sure I don't buy foods I won't ever eat.

Went to Target and Michaels today. Picked up colored pencils for my adult coloring books. I'm super excited about using them to relax at night. Currently loving my new job, but I need to find resources for the staffing industry to see how compliance functions in this new area.

The thought of going back to work tomorrow after my vacation really stinks.  I wish we were still at the pool and beach in PR.

 One of my girlfriends and I tried to go to the beach today, but it totally failed. I live 5 minutes from the beach....it took 30. I drove around looking for a spot then attempted to go to the $20 lot.  The line was backed up for miles. So I drove to a beach that's farther away.  Same scenario, no parking ..2 hours later I gave up returned home. 

Things like this really make me want to live elsewhere. There's so much here in NY that is just impossible to do because of crowds.  It's getting worse and worse as years go on and my desire to battle this crap (at such a very high cost of living) has diminished.  We talk about it and drop it and then bring it up again.  We need to figure it out.

So date guy didn't ghost me or get scared off by my hair, lol. He's just been really busy working on his house and hadn't been online since Thursday night. I had sent him a message and he replied tonight and apologized, said he's been busy, and that he's still looking forward to seeing me after my week with DDs.

We were swimming at my mom's around 6:30 when her neighbor came over and made a comment about severe weather heading our way. She mentioned the word tornado and the kids started flipping out. DD2 started crying and I told them all we would be fine and that it is not likely we would have a tornado here (we've had maybe 2 that I remember). Fingers crossed the storm isn't as bad as she made it out yo sound.

I had someone ask for a GF cupcake while eating glutenful pizza last night. I'm so tired of the recreational GF eaters.

This is so frustrating

I was away for a few days so maybe I missed your intro? Sorry you're frustrated.
