Monday, the return

[cuddlyevil]

Did we all survive the heat this weekend? Tell me all of the things!

The weekend was fun but super hot in the not good way.

Friday, I met friends for dinner then we saw Hedwig and the Angry Inch starring the actor who was in the original production here. He updated some of her lines for the current state of things and it was perfect. I also finally met someone whom I have known for years in person. He and his friend were at Hedwig too, then we went out for drinks after. It was super fun. His friend was cute and fun.

Saturday I didn't leave the house, it was way too hot. I also took a nap at 9am.

Sunday, I volunteered at church then we did laundry.

Today it's back to work

I honestly cannot recall what in the heck I did Friday. It must not have been memorable. LOL.

Saturday we drove a little over a hour to go test drive some cars. The dealership seemed a little shady so we didn't buy anything but it was a successful trip as I did find two cars I liked that I will keep an eye out locally for. We had a fire in the fire pit on Saturday night with some mocktails for me seeing as I still can't drink. Yesterday we went shopping for patio furniture, went for ice cream and for a drive.

Uggghhh Monday!

Friday night I had a date, that I literally was going to cancel on a few hours before, but decided to suck it up and go. Turns out, it was really good and we made plans to get together again before we even left the date!

Saturday I took DS to urgent care since he wasn't getting better (he was diagnosed with walking pneumonia on Tuesday). Turns out it wasn't clearing up at all and now he has a double ear infection. New meds and a rescue inhaler will hopefully help! He also can't hear anything so I spent most of the weekend repeating myself lol!

Yesterday we saw the new Jurassic World movie, which was okay.

I'm taking tomorrow off so we'll be going kayaking and hiking. I'm excited about it!

Friday was my friend's birthday dinner, which was really nice. After heading home and finishing packing, I drove to my parents' house. On the way, I realized I'd forgotten to pack any underwear at all, so I had to stop and buy some at the nearest Target. Thank goodness many are open past 11pm here.

Saturday morning, my mom realized get cat was having issues and was scared he might have another blockage, so she got him to the vet. Luckily the poor guy just has a UTI. So that delayed me getting to Disneyland, but I'm glad he's okay. The rides were so fun, as was the parade. At the end of the night, we went on Space Mountain twice in a row. I got on all but one of the rides I really wanted to go on, and the one I missed out on isn't a huge deal to me.

Yesterday I felt exhausted and sore throughout my body. One of the other women described it as feeling a bit hungover. I think we were all really dehydrated because of dancing SO much without very strong air conditioning. Last night I had trouble falling asleep, I think because I was up so damn late the night before. I don't wanna go back to work!

Normally I don’t like mid-week holidays, but I’m thrilled about this one. I can only handle about 2 days of people at a time.

Weekend was hot as hell. I don’t do well in heat and I’m pretty sure our air is on the fritz. Can’t afford to have it checked out at the moment due to other financial responsibilities. I did hang up curtains in our front room and that helped the room stay a little cooler on Saturday.

Yesterday was the typical errand running. It ended with my husband not talking to me and leaving for his mom’s for most of the night. We don’t communicate well and I’m really just trying to decide if this is worth it. Of course, everything is more aggravating since he quit his job 2 weeks ago and hasn’t been on an interview since. Why do I tolerate this?

[kaneen]

idahome, he quit his job without another one lined up?

My vacation was awesome. Got back Saturday night. Was lazy most of the day yesterday with the exception of a trip to Kroger and Target. I'm working from home today to try to get caught up from being out. I'm going to play a bit of hookie this week to make up for the fact I did work three of the five days I was supposed to be off. Not the whole days but I had to do something work related on three separate days. Just means it didn't really give me a chance to really unwind because this stuff was hanging over my head. And the worst part about it I left my boss everything she needed to figure it out herself but she bugged me to do it anyway.

idahome do you want to talk about it? You don't have to, but if you'd like to, we're here to listen.

[spindle92]

I am sorry idahome. If you need us we are here.

kaneen, I want to see a picture of the new tattoo you got.

Weekend was good from what I can remember. I was nI ot drunk but I truly cannot even remember what I did Friday. Saturday was lunch with my bestie and then some shopping. We went back to her house and ended up sitting on her porch for a good 4 hours just gabbing and drinking sangria. It was quite lovely.

Yesterday I had to work in the AM because my fellow co-workers are complete morons. Seriously, how hard is it to grasp basic accounting and excel work? These two women are going to be the death of me. It takes them 6+ hours (With several phone calls and texts to me) to complete what takes me about 3 - 3 1/2 hours. I should be kinder when I talk about them because they are good people but damn, this is not rocket science.

[bullygirl979]

idahome, hugs. Like others have said we are here to listen if you'd like to talk.

kaneen, that is super annoying. And I agree with spindle92, I want to see pics!

Liking for the good parts of everyone's posts.

I'm back from vacation! It was SO nice to have a whole week off. We went up to visit my parents for a weekend for my dad's birthday and then headed out to West Virginia, where I spent a week learning to fly a glider! I didn't quite hit my goal of getting a solo flight (i.e. without an instructor) by the end of the week, but I did learn a lot and could see a lot of improvement. I ended the week with 19 flights totaling over 4 hours in a glider! I also was able to do the take-off and landing (with coaching, but no input on the controls, from the instructor). It was a very cool experience.

Me flying in a relatively steep turn:

Hugs idahome. We're here if you need us.

[idahome]

Thanks ladies. I appreciate the hugs and you’re willingness to listen. I will take you up on that...just not yet.
