Is it really only Tuesday?

Yesterday sucked.  Last night sucked:

10pm- I fell asleep; 11:30- Max up to eat; midnight- M2 up for a pacifier; 1:30- 6let standing next to my head wailing that he's hungry; 2:30- Max up to eat; 3- M2 up because the bunny in her crib fell over (seriously screeching from the crib "MY BUNNY FELL DOOOOOOOOOWN!); 3:45- DH alarm; 5- M2 and Max screaming from their rooms.

Thank goodness it's preschool day.  I also noticed the ON order I sent to our old address has been rerouted to this address.

    That night sounds awful.  You need a do over.

    Today is DH's first tuesday off (his company decided to go from a 5.5 day work week down to a 5 day week, giving sunday and one day off during the week - so he's off every tuesday now).  This is definitely going to be something we both need to get used to.  He's excited to be able to take DD1 to school and pick her up.

    Today after school we're going to the zoo.

    Hmmmm Tuesday off is good and bad.  It's nice to run errands and such, but annoying to socialize.

    DH is taking some time off Friday to get his stuff together and give me a little break before he leaves.  Hopefully that works out.

    Good morning!

    DefConn's ENT appt is today.  I think I'm ready.  :) 

    The project team from CT is going to be in town tomorrow to visit DH's plant.  I'm hoping DH will find out when he may go to CT next so that we can start shaping up our schedule for this month. 

    I'm going to have to have a come to Jesus with the kiddo about the mornings.  He's been cutting it too close and it's making me crazy.  He can't miss the bus.  I ain't got time for that.

    @6fsn - this sounds like you need reinforcements. I'm sorry your night sucked so hard.

    I went to Target last night for a handful of things. I left with a handful of things but $72 poorer. Diapers and trash bags, yo. They had the mei tai carrier that I'm dying for. I almost got it. I resisted and I'll get it with my next check. 

    I've discovered major found money just by bringing my lunch and breakfast to work. I'm eating better, losing weight and saving money. I see nothing bad about this. 

    I re-vamped my evenings so that I'm not up until 11:30 cleaning the kitchen and making lunches for the next day. When I get home at 6:15, I change my clothes, grab DD and we head into the kitchen where I wash my containers from lunch. I re-pack my lunch for the next day, make DD's lunch for the next day, prep/start dinner. DD plays happily on the floor (getting into everything that lives in front of our pantry rack), I get time with her and get stuff done before we get into the fight of feeding her dinner, her last tube feed and getting her into bed. Once dinner is done I wash and put everything away rather than telling myself "I'll do it later." It's day 3 and my evening stress has decreased already.

    I can't get The Final Countdown out of my head.  Alikitten is due in 10 days.  He can feel free to come out today.  I'm freaking over it.  No dilation, 50% effaced.  Feels like he's going to fall out. 

    I got a surprise NST at my appt yesterday because the idiot who scheduled my appt didn't schedule the test for me (and I had no clue I needed it).  The dr's office couldn't do it for hours so they sent me over to L&D to have it done.  Sitting in a triage room for an hour and half alone in L&D was terrifying.  Since I was so late getting out of there, I didn't bother going to work. 

    Instead of working, I caulked a bathtub, put a coat of stain on the stair banister, and cleaned out three bathroom vanities.  I'm not sure if it was nesting or just absolute restlessness & boredom because there was nothing on TV and our internet is down, since our router broke & AT&T sent us a replacement that was just an empty box :-/

    That sucks Ali.    While I had dilation and effacement, I didn't have *any* signs of labor until I woke up with contractions the day before I had DefConn.  I hope he gets the eviction notice soon.  Sending tons of labor dust your way.  ;)

    Morning!

    I'm blissfully unaware of life at this moment.  I'm burying myself in site plans and hoping to dig out by noon.

    I also just want to sit here and read my book.  Damn.

    Friend is coming to visit this weekend and my brain is already planning out cocktails.  Oops.

    Ugh. I want to crawl back into bed. Need to do all my timesheets for last month (yes I put them off due to more important work, so it's literally a month's worth of documenting exactly what I did for every hour of work) tonight. FI bought us a total gym a month ago. I've been using it fairly regularly, but my hand was pinched at the gun range on Sunday by my new 22 and while the cut isnt long, it is deep. Working out last night hurt like hell trying to do total gym lat pulls, pull ups, etc.

    FI and I mutually agreed to go on a juice cleanse starting this weekend. Decided I want to do the Turkey Trot 5k in my town in a little less than 2 months despite not running for about a year. (yes, I am insane).

    Have to get some wedding stuff done, and realized I'm turning into my mother last night when I yelled for FI to clean his crap off the dining table so I could put dinner out (my dad ALWAYS has stuff all over the table).

    Despite cleaning and combing and baths (super fun) and treatments, the kitties are still picking up fleas somehow. This weekend is monthly bath time, and I think I'm gonna take the comb into the bathroom with me to comb out any of those little buggers I might miss with scrubbing.

     

    On light hearted, cute note, below is link to youtube clip taken by me and uploaded by FI. Our fat cat (13-14 lbs) has figured out how to beat the automatic feeder. Both cats are now going back on super diets as the other one has her belly back too. Enjoy watching my Squirtball prove she's smarter than she looks, esp as she acts nonchalant at first as she knows I am watching. She has no shame.

    Timesheets suck.  I have a reminder that goes off 15 minutes before the end of the day and I MAKE myself do them right then.  I hate myself every time, but at the end of the month when I get that little e-mail, it's such a relief to send back, "I'm already finished, thank you."  We have a fairly decent tracking software though, so that does help.  Back in the days of slips, I really hated it.

    DH is working, not getting paid since his position is a federal grant.  Yay.  :/

    2 months for a 5K is totally doable.  See http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/5k-run/SM00061 or Couch to 5K.  They are both 8 week programs.  I re-started last night.

    Today is fine.  I'm annoyed, b/c I'm reviewing/summarizing a file from another office and it's a hatchet job, seriously. I'd be better off just restarting from the beginning.  Job security FTW!
