I was packing up my low-carb lunch (grilled chicken skewers) and P walked up to me and pointed at them and whined. I gave her one. She ate the damn thing. Thief.

My son is driving my mother's car (2001 Sentra, 60k miles, a jewel that never gave her a minute's trouble). Since October I've had to replace the transmission, replace the alternator, replace the transmission again (at least this one was free since it was still under warranty), and replace the tires. Yesterday the fuel pump went. I'm totally done with this stupid car. I don't trust it to get him safely from point A to point B any more; I certainly don't trust it when he's 200 miles away! RIP Esmerelda.
It's finally the last week of school, it's going so slowly, and everyone is just burned out and ready to be done, like everyone else in the area. A lot of VA doesn't start school until after Labor Day, unlike schools in MD and DC that start in August, so they've been out for weeks now.
There's some shit hitting the fan at work, and I'm doing my absolute best to stay out of it. It might screw up a trip I have scheduled for next week though, so I can't check out completely.

Congrats @beagle! And good luck @neener I woke up early to get an at home workout done, but we really aren't set up for it. My sneakers kept fuzzing up the carpet but made marks in the hard wood floor. I have to get a yoga mat. I wasn't too upset to only get through 2 of 3 rounds of my gym's suggested fire workout; it was hard. DS has been sleeping well and in such a good mood. He can drive me crazy, but he really is my best buddy. I feel awful I have to miss his last day of school on Thursday for work.
OMG one of my best friends is in the most dramatic relationships ever. If I had a dollar for every time she told me about a big fight they had (and these are things like her getting drunk and flirting with other guys and him texting flirty things with other girls), then talked and made up, I could quit my damn job. I'm done giving advice. I really don't have any left except "break up."
Day 2 of being back at work is going much better than yesterday. I felt like I had more time with C last night than I thought I would. Of course, I did nothing after I got home except sit on the couch and hold her, but I really don't care.

AND I JUST REALIZED. Wrong board. Hi. Sometimes I read over here. Sorry.
Congrats @beagle and superduper (and happy birthday anyway)!
I am not feeling well at all today. Do periods get worse with age? Because either this one is just particularly bad or I am more sensitive to it and all the shit that comes with it now that I'm 30. It's destroying my desire to do anything but slump over somewhere and wait for it to pass.
AW: my trainer couldn't make today but I still went to the gym myself and decided to run (totally new at running attempts). As smug as I feel about not dying on the treadmill, I embarrassed myself at work by coming back red as a beetroot. I did not look like a normal human for an hour :?

I have finally completed my 6 flights in less than a month. The boys are home from visiting my mom in Texas. So today is laundry and getting the house back in order. Carter had to go back to school (but this is he last week). I think he really missed school while he was gone. And now my husband went out of town this morning. He feels awful since he hasn't seen the boys in a week. But he will be back on Thursday. Can't wait to have my family under one roof!!
There's a giant fire in my old hometown where a lot of friends and family live, and it's still 0% contained. We were reading all the updates last night and realized we'd have been evacuated if we still lived there. So terrible.
