The fucking men in this organization are just such babies and I am so sick of all the sensitivity to insanely stupid shit. Quit whining! Good gracious. The idea that women are 'too sensitive' becomes more asinine every day that I walk this earth.
My backordered cabinet for beside the fireplace FINALLY arrives today! I really really hope it looks good in that spot because I’ve waited 2 months for it and love the piece itself.

OMG SAME! Being in a male dominated field has its own challenges, I never thought that overly-sensitive men would be one of them. I swear to Jesus if I hear one more man whining about something minute, I will throw things at him.

My soon-to-be boss took my news very well. I start May 20 and go on maternity leave on July 26. I forget how family friendly this country is and that is its biggest perk to me.

Yay! Are they going to let you do more hours in those 2 months or let you make up the time later? Or is it ok you can’t do all of the hours?

Also every time someone posts about the library, it makes me miss mine. I wonder if I can still access ebooks but I have no clue where my library card is.

She said when I return, I can review all the analytics and data of the content and campaign I’ll put into place for my absence so I get to go back! I will likely go back in January and continue working for them. I don’t need specific internship hours as my thesis will be done in July but I want the experience for my resume.

The last 2 days have been long, but the funeral went as well as a funeral can go. My dad stayed away from my sister and I, and did not attempt any contact, which is what we asked for.

I need a frigging vacation so bad. I'm overanalyzing everything to the point I honestly don't know if we'll get a vacation this year, but DH is still telling people we're going away for 2 weeks. We don't have any idea about his surgeries until April, and we're looking at at least $1K because it's out of network. Our tax guy got back to us that we're getting money back (hooray) but less than last year. Apparently we have to have a phone consult (aka more to the bill) for him to tell me how much more to withhold because he hasn't answered that question in email. And then hooray less money in my paycheck. To top it all off I spilled coffee on my boob and have an afternoon meeting with an outside group.
At least DH is working tonight and we had a delay this morning. I'm getting a facial on Satuday too. Whlie I hate the pain of extraction this lady is good and you actually relax while it's going on.
Oh and the 90210 reunion has me excited. It's going to suuuuck, but I'm ok with that.
I can’t believe I am planning DS’s first birthday party. I am a bit ridiculous and throwing him 2 parties, one for his little friends (lol) and one for family. Our house is tiny so we are doing the friends party at a little play centre and the family one is at my parents because their house is much bigger than ours.
We went back to the RE to do some follow up tests and see what was happening and basically not only do I have shitty eggs but from the last time I checked, both my tubes are blocked. Lol, of course. So basically IVF is the only way to conceive another child. I thought I was okay going that route but now I’m not sure if I want to go back to all that.
So basically I am telling myself the ridiculous amounts I am spending on this party that this kid won’t even remember is because I probably won’t get to throw another first birthday party again haha.
The blanket ladder not so much but I’m so happy to have the pile of cords, internet boxes and switch (once the longer cord arrives) out away! Back to working on the walls...

I'm trying to create a job for myself at my rental complex. lol. These idiot people who live here cannot follow rules, especially the trash rule. There's supposed to be a $25 fine for every violation but nobody has the time. In two months, this complex could have made $45,000 in fines alone. FINES. Give me a part time job and a discount on my rent and they'll be rolling in dough.
I need ham like water Like breath, like rain I need ham like mercy From Heaven's gate Sometimes ham salad or casserole or ham that’s free range, all natural I need ham
I am in the airport, on our way to 10 days in Cuba!!
First trip sans children since we’ve had two and been planned for the last two years. Needless to say, very excited.
If anyone’s been, any food suggestions in Havana?
So jealous! I went to Cuba about ten years ago and loved it
I remember the best food being in the paladares. I loved the intimate atmosphere they all had and the feeling of being in someone's home. Also the chocolate museum in the centre of Havana had excellent chocolate drinks.

Doña Eutimia! The ropa vieja is so good. Le Chansonnier was my favorite nice dinner, and I was totally underwhelmed by the super famous "must go" La Guarida. All this from back in 2012, so basically it's probably useless by this point, I just love Cuba and wanted to talk about it.

pandora89, I'm sorry for the news. I know when they told me we'd only be able to conceive #2 with IVF it was such a shock which makes zero sense because nothing had changed from conceiving #1. I guess deep down I just always hoped things would resolve themselves between kids. LOL
I think we're about to sign a contract to redo our deck in Trex. So expensive. Hold me. We better love it.

I realized this morning that I volunteered to decorate the door to DS1's kindergarten classroom in March. Oh wait, March starts tomorrow. Emailed the teacher to see if I can come in tonight or tomorrow morning to decorate - I feel like such a flake.

icedcoffee, our house has a trex deck- it was there when we bought and its really nice! Except ours is that brick red color which I don't like and the rails are too. I need to look into maybe getting the rails changed out to update it a bit. Good luck with your project!
