A good and a bad

wandajune6

I had a happy moment and a bad moment today. How about you?

Good: my friend dropped off the cutest little sign for me yesterday, but I just saw it tonight.

Bad: I'm sitting in the waiting room as FI is prepared for his surgery. It's minor but I get anxious about anesthesia. I've worked in healthcare so long that logic and knowledge are fighting with instinct today!

How about you? A good thing and a bad thing about today?

Good:  My jeans zipped without me having to do the "jean squat" to loosen them up.

Bad:  It's Monday

Good: I have nothing to do after work at all but relax. Invitations went out today

Bad: It's Monday and I have the worst cramps ever...

Good: My hair is looking fab today

Bad: Its laundry day when I get off work

Good: My work is done for the day

Bad: I dropped both cans of seltzer water that I brought to work and I'm THIRSTY!

Good: I'm having a good hair day and it's a day in which I have to see a lot of people.

Bad: I'm also having a fat day and I feel like I've gained weight.

Good: I'm alive. 

Bad: Pretty much everything else. I have a definite case of the Mondays going on.

Good: It's not snowing? Other than that, I've got no goods.

Bad: We have to have a roofer come out today and give us an estimate on installing flashing around our chimney. We knew it was going to need to be installed but FI found a mushroom growing out of our mudroom ceiling yesterday by the chimney so looks like we're doing it sooner rather than later. We've got the money but I would've rather spent it on fun things for our house. I got a whole list of other bads for today but that's my biggest gripe.

Good: I start my new job tomorrow and will no longer be unemployed.

Bad: yesterday our washer filled up...and then promptly stopped working. It won't drain. Nothing. I had to go over to my aunts to do laundry. I am waiting for maintenance to get here and look at it.

Good: I got out of bed on time for work.

Bad: It's because I didn't sleep. Stupid coughing fits.

That happened to my parents once.  Turns out for them it was the little latch thing that clicks when you close the washer door was broken.  Since it can fill up while open, it filled up, but it wouldn't start unless it was locked shut and it thought it wasn't shut because the lock was broken.

The good- I just got an email from the photographer with instructions on how to get our complimentary, high-resolution, engagement photos. I thought we had to pay for them!

The bad- my neck and back hurt. They have for a few weeks now because I've been so busy that I haven't been keeping up with yoga and PT. And I took my last ibuprofen yesterday. 

Also good- while I was out with my girls all weekend long, the FI finished our gas firepit and did a ton of work in the backyard, moving rocks, leveling dirt, and just making everything look awesome. Then, on top of it all- he cleaned the kitchen, mopped the floors and did laundry. So I came home to a clean house! I love that man! Now it is my turn to give back... gotta clean out the storage second guest room this week and paint it, then clean the house again before his buddies get here on Friday.

Good - I made it to the office on time today before our 6am webex with the guys that work internationally.

Bad - was given a new project a few weeks ago that I'm still really uncomfortable with and it was rolled out and I've had nothing but gripes from everyone else who works in it.  I just want to scream that I didn't design it and to leave me alone.  And the boss lady who could answer their questions was gone all last week and in a long meeting today.

Good: I don't have class today and we cleaned the apartment yesterday, so I get to hang out all day in a home that looks like adults live here!

Bad: Partner From Hell completely missed a conference call with our client this morning.  I had to do the call by myself.

But then it's also good/bad because: My professor said she'll take Partner off of important tasks from here on out because she can't be trusted.  I get to work alone.

Oh and I forgot my good and bad things.

Good: Everything in the house is clean so I have nothing like that to do today.  No laundry, no dishes, no picking up dog toys, nothing.  Also an online purchase from a month ago is finally on the truck to deliver today, so a new wristlet is coming my way!

Bad: I need to make a trip to the post office to send out some Etsy orders and it is storming like crazy today.  Thunderstorms on and off all day and of course my dogs are super scared of storms and are refusing to go downstairs and just wanna hide in my bed.

Good: The weather is gorgeous today and it's one of the first days when it actually looks and feels like spring!

Bad: I have a mountain of laundry I need to do tonight. Laundry is one of my least favorite chores. Bleh.

@TwoDimes - I'll do your laundry for you! Laundry is one of my all time favorite chores. Nothing beats having a full closet of clean clothes!

I will totally take you up on that offer!

I don't so much mind sorting the laundry or washing it, but after it dries.... man, I just HATE folding it and putting it away. It usually ends up sitting in the dryer or a laundry basket for days after it's been washed!

Fi and I have the best arrangement.  I sort and wash the laundry-- I get to smell all the nice smells!  Then he folds everything, which is the most annoying part to me.  We each put away our own clothes.

Good: I'm wearing a new sweater. Bad: it is raining and I have to take my dog to the vet. She hates the rain so it is going to be a big fight. ETA: sorry my paragraphs don't work on my iPad.

Good: I stepped on the scale today for the first time since I weighed myself when I started going to the gym 3 1/2 months ago and....I've lost 10 pounds! I thought I was seeing progress and my clothes were looser but I HATE, rather LOATHE, scales and was glad to see the numbers correlate with my perceived progress.

Bad: My assistant is driving me bonkers and it is taking every ounce of self control to not scream at her.
