Good morning! How goes it? 

Last night I headed home, cooked dinner with H, and then watched The Bachelor while texting @Hummingbird125 @southernpeach89 and @labro . 

Today will be similar: work, home, cook, eat, watch PLL and text @GoldenPenguin and @speakeasy14 if she's around.

@Swazzle I enjoyed our texting date last night while watching The Women Tell All....it wasn't as dramatic as I had hoped but I'm glad we all got to share our annoyances together.

Last night I went to CrossFit and then came home and finished feeding Callie and played with her until her bedtime. Afterwards I watched the Bachelor while texting @labro @swazzle and @Hummingbird125 . 

Not too much happening today. I desperately need to get my van washed so I might run out and do that on my lunch break. Tonight we are going to CrossFit and then I'm making BBQ chicken, potatoes, and corn on the cob. This meal is getting me in the mood for warmer weather.

How's the weather? 
It's gorgeous!!!! I'm so ready for warm weather now.

What are you wearing today? 
Grey dress pants, my pink Polo Ralph Lauren oxford, and my beige Michael Kors flats

What's for breakfast?
I had Vanilla Greek Yogurt and coffee

What's for lunch?
Chicken Soup!

What's for dinner?
BBQ Chicken, potatoes, and corn on the cob

@Swazzle  You look FANTASTIC!!!!!

Swazzle

@southernpeach89 - Thank you! I have a weigh in tomorrow so fingers crossed! 

I loved texting with you guys last night! I can't wait for the finale now. I hope your chicken soup is boneless today  

[Deleted User]

@Swazzle - Look at your waist!!!!  Ah!!!

How's the weather? 
Bleh!  The high is 68, but it's going to rain/storm/flood all day.  I wish I was home...  I don't mind the rain when I'm home and can be in my PJs with some hot chocolate.

What are you wearing today? 
Black dress, scarf, burgundy flats


What's for breakfast?
I had a granola bar at 4:15 (I woke up feeling sick), then a piece of toast with PB and honey at 6, and now I'm sipping on a Shakeology (cafe latte flavor, banana, PB, almond milk)

What's for lunch?
I brought some Amy's cheese enchiladas to stick in the microwave.

What's for dinner?
I had H put some chicken sausage in the fridge to thaw.  If I'm not feeling sick, I'm going to try to make this (but with only a tiny bit of broccoli):

But since it's storming, I won't be able to open the doors to air out the smells, so we'll see.

Are you currently reading anything?
No, but I just got a notification that one of the Amazon Kindle pre-ordered books was delivered TODAY!!!  I can't wait.  It is a sequel to another book I read.  This one is "Sisi: Empress on Her Own".  

If you could be anywhere on the planet right now, where and with who?
Somewhere warm (but not hot) and with H.

Yesterday I tried to be really productive.  I didn't do much Sunday, which meant the house was pretty cluttered and the sink was full of dishes and laundry never got folded.  I was slammed at work, but still managed to get a few things done in the evening.  I had to run by the store, and I was starving when I got home, so I made this:


Except mine looked like this (I'd already mixed up the eggs):


I cleaned up the kitchen (except the dishes in the sink), took a short nap, folded 2 loads of laundry, hung up a bunch of clothes that were hanging on a chair, and then finally collapsed into the bathtub with some epsom salts.  H had a basketball thing after work, so he didn't get home until 7:30 or 8:00.  We talked a little bit and then I fell asleep.  Very busy day, and my feet are still sore this morning.  I ended up with 9000 steps yesterday.  My doctor wouldn't be happy, haha.

@Swazzle I hope so too! Ugh that was awful! I hate bones!

@CocoBellaF - Your outfit is SO cute today! I love those shoes, where are they from? I don't know why I even want to know since I'm on a shopping ban and we all know I definitely do not need more shoes. Both of those meals looks so yummy! AND HEY. YOU NEED TO TAKE IT EASY, LADY! 

[Deleted User]

Thanks @Swazzle!  I am wearing them a LOT lately.  They are pretty comfortable, even when my feet start swelling up.  They are from Old Navy, surprisingly!

[Deleted User]

@CocoBellaF Love that scarf!! Make sure you take a break...sounds like you did a lot yesterday.

[Deleted User]

I never claimed to be a good patient, y'all.

[Deleted User]

I just saw that DFW is going to have a rough morning with storms... stay safe, @eilis1228!!

[Deleted User]

That is a gorgeous picture, @TwoDimes!!!

[Deleted User]

@CocoBellaF You're pregnant....and your doctor put you on bed rest. I'm not trying to tell you that you can't do anything but I would seriously listen to your doctor. If they say resting is best right now then that's what's best.

[Deleted User]

@TwoDimes Of course! You're always welcome for dinner....as long as you bring Indy so she can play with Maddux!

[Deleted User]

@southernpeach89 - I know.  Yesterday was a busy day, but I did do mostly bed rest all weekend and I plan to settle back down tonight.  It's hard, but I'm really trying to do the best I can.  

minskat30

@swazzle - You look really great!  Good luck with the weigh in!

@southernpeach89 - When is Callie's bedtime?  When/how often does she get up now (when not teething/fussy)?

@cocobellaf - Love your scarf and your lunch (Amy's enchiladas are yummy) but TAKE IT EASY.

@TwoDimes - I hope you get a refund!  We are doing our taxes today (well, H is doing them with our accountant in Chicago...he has two businesses so we need an accountant lol).


--------------------------

-Beautiful.  I think I'll walk home the 5 miles today if the weather holds.  It is like 60!

What are you wearing today?

-Eggs and potatoes or oatmeal...not sure which yet.

It looks like rain out but so long as it isn't coming down hard I would love to just get outside.  I feel like spring is FINALLY coming and I'm really happy about it.  

[Deleted User]

Hopefully no rain then!

Does anyone watch The Voice?  I just watch the clips on YouTube, but I've got a serious crush on Brian Nhira after seeing his audition.  

[Deleted User]

@CocoBellaF I completely understand...believe me. After my C-section my doctor said I couldn't do anything besides rest. I couldn't even walk up and down the stairs for the first 2 weeks and that drove me insane because all I wanted to do was take care of my baby and get back to normal. Healing was so important at that time and I was really glad I took it easy because if I hadn't I could have reopened my stitches and GOD knows that would have SUCKED!!!!! Rest now and soak it all in because later on after that baby is born....sleep will be gone lol. 

[Deleted User]

@minskat30 Callie is usually in bed by 7:30-7:45. For this past week she was up constantly throughout the night and it has gotten better and she will only wake up maybe once during the night or maybe a couple hours after we put her to bed. Prior to teething she wouldn't get up at all and sleep a full night. That was glorious...I just have to tell myself that we will get back there once these teeth pop through.

Swazzle

@TwoDimes - Your outfit sounds so cute! I'm disappointed there's no photo. Good luck with the taxes! Pretty Girls is on my list, glad you recommend it!

@minskat30 - Thank you! OMG that resort looks incredible.

Hi guys! I'm extra cranky this morning because my dog was yipping in her crate hourly since 3am and I have no clue why, because I kept getting up to take her outside, and of course when I finally get up to make coffee and feed her, she goes in her crate to nap. So I'm gonna go take her for a walk soon, I just need this caffeine to enter my bloodstream.

I didn't check in yesterday so I'm gonna tell you about my birthday/weekend! It was mostly boring, but for my birthday dinner we ate at a place that I can't remember the name of right now but it was close to Madison Square Garden, we got burgers and beer (except I had a black cherry ale which was amazing!) and they were playing great music. We finished eating and went back to MSG and found our seats. The concert was AWESOME. I've loved Fall Out Boy since they started and I was so happy. We drank beers and I danced and sang along while he just kinda nodded to the music... and the high-school-age girl sitting next to BF definitely developed a crush on him and gave me the stink eye a lot.

The rest of the weekend was boring, I worked and had final papers to write, but I went out to dinner with BF's family on Sunday and I received the rest of my gifts. BF's brother got me an adult coloring book with dogs and cats, his sister gave me pretty dog bowls and a mug that says #hashtag on it, so I really love those lol


How's the weather?

What are you wearing today?
Right now pajamas, later, work shirt and jeans.

I'm so glad you had a great birthday, @untouchablets !!

Oh, here is the elephant I told you all about yesterday.    H has a video of Rajah sniffing it very curiously too.  I'll ask him to upload it to youtube so I can share.  Raj is very curious about baby stuff but very respectful of it all too...smells it then leaves it alone.    He's going to be the best big brother.

@twodimes those mountains look amazing!! Every time I go visit my BFF in PA I can't stop looking at the mountains on the horizon. I would definitely love to do do something mountainy too!

[Deleted User]

@minskat30 - I LOVE IT!!!  Can't wait to see the picture of Rajah sniffing it.  

Swazzle

@untouchablets - Sounds like you had a great birthday! Sorry the pup kept you up last night though. 

@minskat30 - That is adorable! I can't wait to see the video of Raj inspecting in  

@jenna8984 - They're Keds! Do you and H have any boys names picked out? 

@TwoDimes - I mean, why are you so pretty? 

[Deleted User]

@jenna8984 - I'm a little jealous you are having a boy!!  I kind of wanted a boy, so I could have a little H-mini-me.  I can't wait to see all the cute outfits and stuff you'll get!!

So, the lady in the cube next to me came in yesterday with a horrible rash.  Today I was told she has shingles.  I'm trying to decide if I should be worried or not.
