Want to join me in complaining?

Here are my complaints:

I'm tired. I woke up at 5 AM.
I still don't have my luggage. I have no idea when I'll get it. I woke up at 5 AM to wash the dress I wore yesterday.
I don't want to train my replacement today. I don't think I really like her all that much and I don't like being forced to spend an entire day with someone.

But here's the catch of the game....Now you have to tell me some of good things about today:

I get to send time with my family.
I'm on vacation for the next week.
I'm going to meet up with Raven (!!)
I love you gals
A scarf will help my ears stay warm in my first Colorado winter.
I can sleep after work.
I can swim after work (pending I have my luggage).

Oh...and I guess I will post our Thursday WW Meeting today after work...it will be a late one. Unless someone else wants to start it?

Oh...and Oh my goodness- I finished Hunger Games in less then a day! I MUST buy the last two books after work! LOVE BOOKS. Need more recommendations from NEY that are just as awesome.

    My only negative rant is how lazy I seem to have gotten lately. My workouts have gone from being around 75-90 minutes to being 45-50 minutes (if that), I've eaten out 90% of my meals for the last two weeks, and I don't seem to be motivated to get any REAL work done at work... I just browse wedding sites all day.

    Now for the good stuff:
    I love my fiance, I love my family, I love the people I work with, I love my friends... my life is good. 
    I found an AWESOME lead on a part-time job yesterday that is RIGHT up my alley... working on events for an adventure company. Fingers crossed!

    Complaints -

    I have to go to the doctor tomorrow.
    I didn't get my full half hour on the elliptical this morning because I woke up late.
    I had a milkshake last night Surprised
    Work is simultaneously boring and stressful today.
    I killed my suitcase with mold.



    Good things about today -

    It is my last work day before VACATION!
    I am getting my nails did after work for the 2 weddings next week.
    I found an ADORABLE and cheap ($60!) grey and lavender suitcase that I will be purchasing this evening.
    I get to pack ( I enjoy this - judge away) all my favorite cute clothes in said suitcase tonight.
    24ish more hours and I will be on my way to spend an amazing week in a place I love with all my friends and family surrounding me.



    Really, it isn't even a close contest Smile

    Negative Rant? I can't remember if I turned off my curling iron... I don't work close to home and its freaking me out! Hopefully I did turn it off and my apartment wont be burned down when I get home.

    ETA: Just looked up my curling iron online and it has an auto shut off! Thank Goodness!

    Good Stuffs: I am indeed going to John Legend and Sade tonight with the BF, he even sprung for some good (read $$$) seats :)  Now I need to figure out our dinner plans! Yeay!

    Complaining:

    - I'm tired of reading about steel today, but there is no end in sight
    - My house is a disaster and I have no motivation to really clean it.
    - Having FI's family here is really stressful for me because they don't plan anything and I have limited available time to prepare for their last minute decisions.
    - Molson was moody this morning

    Good Stuff:
    - I love my FI
    - We started talking about our HM
    - My sister is coming to visit to look at wedding dresses
    - I have tomorrow off!

    My arms are killing me from the pushups and crunches I did yesterday. My shoulders hurt like they haven't hurt since I quit playing softball. Ugh. My body needs to get used to being moved around again.

    On the bright side, Nick is working from home today and tomorrow, and that makes me very happy. I love having him home during the day.

    Negative Nancy says:
    I woke up late for work because I didn't set an alarm.
    My parents are being really stupid again and it is upsetting me.
    I didn't sound so good in voice lessons last night, and I might be a mezzo Soprano.
    I didn't get to carpool with my BF.
    Because I woke up late I am tired and having a hard time getting into my job.

    Positive Polly says:
    Get to meet up with Lunar!
    Having dinner with friends tomorrow.
    I love BF.
    My job is awesome.
    I live in a beautiful area.
    I have been blessed by many things.

    Negative: All of these friggin roads are under construction. One has a detour that goes right past my house on a tiny street, so getting out of my driveway is almost impossible. I also took three detours on my way to work. Positive: I can let out my frustration at kickball tonight. This is also the last time that I will have to go to training after work for two hours. Also, BF has been amazing at being patient with me and keeping my spirits up. I thanked him with a card and Reeses hidden in his bag today :)

    Complaints:
    -My cousin is a twatwaffle. Anytime we ask her for a favor, she always makes sure there's something in it for her- It gets to the point where you regret ever asking her to do anything. I asked her to watch two of our dogs overnight  (7pm-noon) and in return, she wanted a discount off her car repairs. My mom was crushed since she'd do anything for her and couldn't believe that she'd even ask for something in return. She's just like her dad so I believed it. The kicker? After my dad said $50 off if she watched BOTH dogs, my mom called me grandma and my cousin was at her house trying to scam one of the dogs on her.
    FMIL is watching all three for free. She's either a saint or she's crazy. I haven't figured it out.
    - My neck still hurts and I forgot my icy hot patches at home.
    -Walgreen wanted $6.99 for 5 Icy Hot brand patches and $6.99 for THREE of their brand. Aren't you supposed to be the cheaper of the two?!

    Happiez:
    - My parents are on their way to pick up my new car AS I TYPE!!
    - FI and I are going to Nashville tomorrow to visit my aunt for the day. I haven't seen her in two years so I'm super psyched.
    - There's not a creepy bug picture on my Cuteness Overload day calendar. I hate when I have to start at bugs or goofy looking goats. They're not that cute, guyz.
    - I saw this bumper sticker driving today. It put a smile on my face.

    Negative: - All the moving stuff is really getting to me. I just want it to be finished already! - I'm ticked because I had a sleep study done in June, with rush orders all over it because of the move, yet it took over a month to get the results and now the doctor can't see me until mid-September, when I'll be living across the country! - BF and I still don't have a place to live when we get out West, which is stressing me. To make matters worse, I got an email from student housing that they had a one bedroom available for us, we just needed to respond within 24 hours. I responded with an emphatic 'yes' not even 2 hours after their original email. Contacted the real estate agent who had been trying to find us a place, and thanked her for her time, and let her know we were settled for Septemer. (she has now left town on business until the end of August, so she was thrilled). A few hours later, I got an email from housing saying they are sorry for the mistake, but in fact there is no unit available. FML Positive: - over half of our clients at work have taken the next 2 days off, so our ratio of clients to staff is 4:3 (I work with young adults with intellectual disabilities) - I had a good workout yesterday and today - I'm having a decent hair day (I recently got a few inches cut off, so I'm still getting used to styling it) - I have the nicest bosses and co-workers ever, who had a BBQ last night as a farewell party for me :)
