Randoms? I have some.

Go RexManningDay ! You'll kick ass.

I got two calls for interviews today. One I'm really excited about... It's a combination of my old job as a ID/DD teacher/job coach and Kitchen Director for adults who have aged out of the education system and want to learn culinary skills. The other is a pastry job at a fine dining restaurant.

I got off my ass and forced myself to go outside for a walk. Got all my steps in today.

And I submitted an application for icingsmiles.org to bake dream cakes for kids with critical illnesses. I'm really excited about that, too. I hope they call me soon!!

Woo-goo to the debt payoff! That feels so good. I did my cc last month and should have my SLs taken care of in the next month or so. Then it's just doubling down on my car payment until September and then I'm debt free. Then I need to save some fucking money, lol.

I've decided to not allow Stella up on the furniture regularly anymore. She's not digging it.

I've been at a new job for a little over a month. Today I had a meeting with my supervisor to discuss maternity leave. Their policy is to offer 6 weeks paid after 1 year of employment. She told me they see a lot of potential in me and would like to offer me the paid leave. I cried.

H was off and home all day today. It's 8pm and he's just now putting laundry in that he needs for tomorrow. Im annoyed.

I need a haircut badly but I've been putting it off for over a month because my friend has been cutting it for me for a few years. She's alright and barely charges anything, but its never anything special. Last time I wasn't really thrilled with what she did. She's just not very creative and can only do exactly what you tell her to do.

 There's a girl at a salon nearby that I went to before that I really liked and would recommend different things/get creative etc. I've been debating making an appointment with her but I just haven't yet. Partly because I feel bad about not wanting to go back to my friend, partly because I don't really know what I want. I'm bored with my hair and stuck in a rut.

My life is hard.

DD said "Dad said we need to get rid of clothes because we have too many. He said we should get down to 21 shirts and pants.".

I was glad she was in the backseat because my face was more than a little "the fuck?".

Yay!

I keep forgetting you are pregnant because you don't talk about it enough.

How are you feeling?

Aw, thanks for asking! I'm feeling really great. I've been so lucky to have a very easy pregnancy. Due in 2 months. We still need to decide on a name!

We decided DS2's name in the car en route to the hospital. You have time

[agnes]

@fs, I'm glad to see you back!

[noodle]

@fs, I'm glad you are back!

I just took my belly ring out.  I got the piercing 20 years ago, and I've been thinking about removing it for years.  But I still felt a bit emotional taking it out.

Dry Erase markers should NEVER be given to 5 year olds. You cannot get that ink out of clothing . Of course it was DD1's 'good' dress from Easter last year (she really really really wanted to wear it and nothing that they've done at pre school up until now stained).

[circa1978]

We're watching my brother's two dogs for a week and OMG, between them and our dog and cat and our kid, it's like there is a rule that I must be accompanied by three or more friends to every room.

Do you have any frontrunners for names?

May I suggest Jane, middle name Numbers?

[speckledfrog]

@fkasmace, what do they say? I don't know why I care, but I do!


I don't like working out at night. It makes me feel so tired.

Did you try rubbing alcohol? Press between damp paper towel and a dry one.

Today is my birthday and it was the most normal, calm, lovely day. Perfect weekday birthday.

My neighbors, grown ass adult construction dudes, made a hopscotch board in the street and are having a competition. It's quite charming, but they are high as fuck right now.

[thinkofthesoldiers]

I let a friend down tonight. It wasn't intentional and has to do with my H's job getting in the way. I apologized profusely, offered to rescheduled, etc. She proceeded to tell me how I not only let her down, but also her H who came back from a trip so we could make our plans. I didn't know that was happening. I couldn't have helped what happened. I cried while we were texting. I hate letting people down and didn't do it purposely. I had a really fucking long day and this was the icing on the cake.

[lilibet]

@fkasmace,I was just looking for an update! I'm overly invested apparently. I'm sort of sad someone signed up, I wanted them to have no volunteers, lol.

[thinkofthesoldiers]

@bigtowlittletoe, happy bday. :-)

I'll try it - but it's already been through the washer/dryer once.  I've been down this road one previous time (my own fault - I gave her that marker) - if I had known it was dry erase day I would have made her wear something else...

That really sucks. I'm sorry.

[thatgirl2478]

I'm getting irritated with the sellers of the house we're buying.  They are dragging their feet on the repairs we requested (all are within the scope of what's allowed) and using up our negotiation time...

[ZoeHart]

Happy birthday @bigtowlittletoe!

[cville]

I saw several candid photos of me from a work event. They're all of the back side of me.

1. I've lost 7 pounds and am doing these exercise classes that made me feel leaner, yet still have a lumpy back fat situation.

2. My hair looked like shit.

3. My butt looks okay.

2/3 ain't bad.

[ZoeHart]

My DH and dogs are passed out on the couch right now all cuddled together. It's adorable and I sort of want to sneak into the bedroom and leave them out here so I can have the whole bed to myself tonight. Muahaha.

[FastHands]

RexManningDay I hear you on the running. I'm doing a virtual 10k in I think April. I actually did get back to running somewhat about 6 months ago, but slacked off mmmmajorly since the holidays. And I've only run once in like 9 weeks, and that's only because I signed up for a virtual 5k with my bff and I would never hear the damn end of it. Lol

Dd didn't have a name till she was almost 12 hours old. Her dad was convinced she would be a boy so didn't even want to consider girl names. My insurance only covered one ultrasound and we had to use that to figure out gestation since I didn't figure out I was pregnant for a few months because of wonky periods.

[FastHands]

DH is obsessed with twitter and I haaaate it. He has a tendancy to be overly phone-attached in general, but with election coverage on twitter, it's a whole new level. Like he has to get through the whole day of election tweets, so he only pays like 4% attention to shows we watch or basically anything in life.

[muffin0]

I made the decision to stop shopping at target, because I spent so much and I had no idea what I spent it on. I have a problem.

I did good for a couple weeks. H is updating YNAB (you need a budget) and there are three target transactions that I have no idea what they are.

Seriously, I need an intervention.
