Week of 5/28

[wineandcheese]

Anything fun going on this week? Any randoms, AWs, vents?

[wineandcheese]

About 80% of our apartment is packed, now to start cleaning. DH left Saturday and it was so hard for him. I’ve never seen him so emotional.

It’s supposed to be a pretty normal week. Working my normal schedule then running errands early Friday morning.

Saturday or Sunday my friend is coming to do my hair. She told me “it’s going to take hours” lol. I think she just wants to hang out with me. Whatever day she isn’t doing my hair, I plan on going to our favorite winery to pick up some bottles and some old friends are meeting me to say our goodbye.

[travelbug]

wineandcheese Nice work on the packing!! Sounds like a really fun week. Do you have a job lined up for when you move?

Easy week here. I work tues-sat. Hubs works his usual schedule. So far, this month he has picked up 3 shifts in overtime. Woo!!

The place where we ordered our table from said they can’t get the color I want in, even though there are 45 in the warehouse...... so I canceled our order. Booo!

This is week 3 for the healthy food, going strong! My body feels amazing, even if it doesn’t look like it, yet!

[krystee]

Three-day work week for me! Our new siding and gutters are being put on this week, so our house will look totally different on Wednesday! And then our pool is opened Thursday. I can't wait!

[wineandcheese]

travelbug I do not. Luckily we have a large cushion in the bank that we will be ok. I’ve be looking at jobs in the area that I should qualify with my experience. How’s the clean eating going?

[grover]

Tomorrow is the last day of school!!!

I'm already tired of the heat going on now though. 95 the last few days.

Oh good, glad there won’t be any stress with that It’s going so well. I thought id be craving some of my favorite foods by now, but I feel so good that I don’t want to cave now. Thanks so much for asking!

[estrellita]

My cousin's son's grad party is this weekend. I swear I was just babysitting this kid and now he's graduated and turning 18 in July! Where does the time go??

[luv2rn4fun]

Way to go travelbug!!

Good job with the packing wineandcheese! Your week sounds fun!

grover- yay for summer!

Normal week here!

Today: we did bagels/coffee/groceries (DH is off so he joined us!)! DH went paddle boarding with a friend and my dad came over and we went for a 5.3 mile run with the boys! Worked a little on DH’s Father’s Day project during nap.

Tomorrow: trying to talk myself into taking the boys to the lake...but will most likely go for a run and park in the morning/ maybe frozen yogurt and water table in the afternoon.

Weds: preschool/run

Fri: preschool/run/chores

Weekend: likely going to the lake! It’s supposed to warm up quite a bit by next weekend!

[estrellita]

We bought a rug for the living room! It's been hard to make a decision but we finally did, lol. Now to start looking for different curtains and pillows for the couch (which matches nothing, but we'll eventually replace that). What would you get to go with this rug? I'm thinking tan for the walls, dark enough to contrast with the white trim but not too dark. The rug is beige, navy and purple. Furniture is mostly tan/beige and light color wood. Floor will be dark wood.

[katespade]

Ooooooooh, estrellita, I love that rug!!

[awick14]

wineandcheese- good job on the packing!

travelbug- if there are some in the warehouse why can’t you get it?

krystee- exciting!

grover- jealous! I don’t have any time off now until sept long weekend.

estrellita- I like that rug!

I’m exhausted after the holidays but I’m back to work now today until Thursday night.

Then my sister comes on fri for the weekend.

[pooh8402]

estrellita, I looooove that rug! I would do neutrals with your big furniture and paints, and bring in colors with pillows, plants, maybe a small side table.

[pooh8402]

wineandcheese, way to go on the packing!

travelbug, I'm on week 3 or 4 of my pcos diet (essentially paleo with legumes added in) and I'm having ALL the cravings! I don't know that I feel any better but I have lost weight (not a good thing in my case). I'm just hoping that this IVF cycle works so I can stop the diet. Fortunately, my BIL and a couple coworkers are eating keto, so I have some support.

I'm starting my third and last IVF cycle next week, first injections this coming weekend.

We had church family camp this weekend and it was fun! Dh and I got to know more people.

Oh, and today is our 8th anniversary.

[HoneySpider]

My parents were here for the weekend and left this morning and then we are turning around and going to their house this weekend. DH is off half a day Thursday and all day Friday so the plan is to head up Thurs afternoon and take DS to Sesame Place on Friday....if the weather cooperates. Sat we have a graduation party for my cousin's daughter, a lot of my family is going to be there which will be great.

In between I have a ton of errands, work, and general stuff to do around the house. I really need an extra day this week!

[ewall]

Happy anniversary pooh8402!

[HoneySpider]

Happy anniversary, pooh8402

[MrsMB]

Happy Anniversary pooh8402! Good luck with this next cycle!!!

I have a dentist appointment with the new dentist on Thursday. This weekend, we have family pictures. That's about it!

[luv2rn4fun]

Happy anniversary pooh8402! Praying this IVF cycle leads to a take home baby for you guys!

[grover]

Happy anniversary pooh8402!

This past weekend was H's and I's 13th anniversary from when we started dating. Crazy how fast it feels like it's gone!

My period came four days early, so that impacted our IUI schedule. Can't get in this month now, so it'll be next cycle. Going to try that for a few months then move to IVF I guess.

[katespade]

Happy anniversary, pooh8402!!

Aw dang. Stupid period!

[wineandcheese]

pooh8402 happy anniversary!

grover that sucks. I’m sorry.

DH started his new job yesterday and liked it. He supposed to call the realtor today to set up times to look at apartments and a few townhouses. I hope he finds us something by the end of the week.

I finally had a good night sleep last night after not sleeping for a few nights. I have an orientee today at work so it’s going to be an easy day for me. It’s his last training shift so he’s running the show today, hopefully I don’t need to step in at all.

[bk1]

pooh8402 happy anniversary!

wineandcheese glad he liked his first day. It's so hard being away from your spouse. I hope the time moves quickly for you both.

awick14 That’s what I want to know, I asked the lady.. I was like, why would you even tell us that if you couldn’t get the color I wanted in, she said she didn’t know why the warehouse was wrong.. so annoying!

pooh8402 I am excited to re-introduce a few foods in a month or 2 If I feel up to it. It was a lot easier and not as much time involved to just eat whatever I wanted. I’m so glad you have support from people, it’s really helped me to be accountable to tell my sisters what I’ve been eating and keeping up with Instagram posting to help motivate myself! Oh and Happy Anniversary

[melsamoony]

Not much going on here. Happy for a short week.

My vacation countdown has begun as we are only 1 month away now!!!

We are doing the same here- 25 more days! My Type A is kicking in...already making a list of everything we need to pack! Not sure where it’s all going to fit in DH’s Prius LOL

[katespade]

grover - Ugh, how frustrating!! I’m sorry that you have to wait another cycle.

[estrellita]

Remind me to never get a cat again. Omg. I am so over him peeing on things!! This is partially why we're tearing up the carpet. Tonight it was a felt book I got for E when we went to Disneyland and a burp rag. He's barely even played with the book. At least it was cheap but COME ON. I know we need to be more careful about things laying out but still. It's impossible to keep this place clean and we shouldn't have to worry about stuff like that! I just wish I knew why he was doing it so we could make it stop!
