Thursday. Weekend in sight!

Good morning all! 

I was was woken by H and then the baby, so up earlier than needed on the day we have to get up early. So not cool  
nothing exciting for me today. I need to finish planting my garden and then try to get some flowers planted in my leftover time but I need to clean out a flower bed. So we will see what gets done before I toss in the towel. I have been doing yard work everyday this week for nap time and I'm alittle over it. Surely taking a nap is a better use of my free time while the kids nap.

hope it's a good day for everyone!

I always say take a nap when there is an opportunity!

Yesterday I was in a bad mood (hormones maybe). Someone spilled bug spray in my cubicle area and it still smells today.

BIL decided for his birthday dinner he wants sushi... which I get it is his birthday and he can choose, but he and FSIL didn't even bother coming to my birthday dinner so I am kinda like f---- them and using the get-out-of-shit-I-don't-want-to-do-card aka I'm pregnant and tired.

Today I hope work goes quick and I can go home and take a nap. This little baby likes to do somersaults in the middle of the night.

2am Dance Party! I remember those (sort of) fondly.

Good morning! I have another meeting to run today, and I'm going to be chasing down my MAs for audits today. LOL Good times!

Some sad news - my new (awesome) coworker's 19 y.o. sister died of Stage IV kidney cancer yesterday morning. Such a tragedy. She went so fast, and it just came out of nowhere. So awful. We're trying to figure out what we can do to help her family, but it's just so hard to know what to do when you're just getting to know someone.

Hopefully everyone has a great day!

Morning. My new pole shoes should be at home when I get home today! I need to go to old navy tonight after I get home. Not much else on my end.

picksthemusic that's so sad for your family.

Today is the big day. Bkb had so much trouble leaving me today. Big crocodile tears. She definitely needs a date with mom. I have plans with her Saturday. I am thinking of extending them. We'll see what else she wants to do.

picksthemusic, that's super tough

I might go on a pregnancy rage hulk out on both sets of parents here pretty quick. Everyone wants something different from me and I just want to sleep in and wear wireless bras and get some stuff done around the house. I don't want to see these people every weekend

Girl, do what you need to do. How many weeks are you now? I can't remember and can't see sigs at work. They seriously need to respect your time and needs right now. Who is demanding what? I'm curious and ready to defend you! LOL

Haha 26 weeks! 

Every weekend H's parents have something going on last was his dad's birthday, this they want to do lunch because they want to give us money we don't want for baby stuff, next is BIL's birthday, then after that is FSIL's bridal shower. 

My dad's birthday is this Sat we agreed to do dinner tomorrow night, and now my mom is like ugh I don't want to spend all day on the mainland for dinner. You guys come over on Saturday for his birthday your ILs don't need to see you every weekend. I asked her last weekend if we should/could come over and she said no, and then H made plans with his parent's and now she wants us over there.

I am over all of them. I need to build a bed frame because my bed is on the floor like some college kid and pretty soon I will not be able to get up easily. I almost kick H in the face 4 times a night when I get up to pee... so frustrated.

BTW last weekend I spent Friday with my mom and drove to Oak Harbor, Saturday we drove to Tacoma to get some stuff and food for his dad's birthday, then Sunday we were going to take his mom to the Mill Cafe and she was in Redmond and wanted us to drive there. I told H fuck no my back is done. It f----- hurts all the time when I have to drive. I am like crazy rage person right now though.


Sorry for the novel

Slept like utter crap last night: woke up multiple times and a lot of physical pain that even invaded my dreams (dreamt I kept betting stabbed by hypodermic needles all over my body constantly, sharp objects being stabbed in my torso). I am now feeling tired, moody, grumpy as hell, and feel like crying. Fun times. Plus my office mate has been kind of a jerk the past two days so if it continues today, there's going to be a fight. Class tonight, too.

Started new class last night and meh. The teacher is not only not dynamic, she's not very interesting and kind of bland, has a tendency to go off on tangents that are sort of related but have way too much detail for what is already kind of a boring story. Plus, while she's maybe in her 50s or early 60s, something about her feels 'dated' (down to her ability to use the mouse on her laptop...). She also overexplains things that don't need that much (everyone in this class looks to be under 40, I think we all know how to use the internet by now!). I hope I get something out of this class! I can do basic brochure design already, I want to IMPROVE my skills, geez. At least this class only meets once a week.

spa , OMG. Tell your parents you need a break and you'll see them after the baby's born. Tell your DH that he needs to tell his parents that you might need to sit some stuff out. That's ridiculous!

But let me tell you that I can relate - we see my ILs way more than I'd like and it is even more frustrating when you're pregnant, tired, and in pain.

ETA: I just noticed that you're in Mill Creek - so close to me! Let me know if you need to go get a frappucino at the Starbucks by Central Market and you can vent all you want, haha.

I hope those who need some sleep gets it soon, or have access to excessive amounts of caffeine.

picksthemusic, I would make sure that the new CW gets whatever is typical from the office for sympathy/death in family - signed card, flowers, whatever.  She would probably appreciate the gesture and feel like a part of the team.

spa, I would play the "pregnancy card" or "our vehicles are having issues... yes, all of them" to get out of any more unnecessary family "dates."

Happy 1st day of Seattle Beer Week! - which is actually 11 days, but whatever  I'm not doing anything to celebrate tonight, but I have plans for Friday.

I had an interview this morning with a company that another Nextie works for, and I really hope I move on/get an offer.  I have good feelings, but there are still a couple other people I'm competing against.  The other interview I had earlier this week, I wasn't loving the organization, and I think they are moving on as well.

Ugh. I'm getting really pissed off with work. Gah! Thank god I don't work tomorrow.

I have a CT scan tomorrow to check on the status of my kidneys, see if there are any stones hanging out. Have a great day everyone!
