Tuesday Snoozeday

untouchablets · August 2015

Good Morning Everyone!!

I woke up to crashing thunder and lightning a few minutes ago.... fun. But I will not be brought down, today is my first day working with my new dog training mentor!!! I am just gonna be shadowing today and seeing what all goes down in a regular day and we have plans to go out for lunch and talk about my goals and what she has planned for me

I went to bed super early last night because I was exhausted and I feel so much better today than I have the last several days. I have been so busy this month that I've barely spent time at home at all. This is my last week of this term and then I have a two week break before my next term so I am planning on playing serious catch up with housework during that time because September is also gonna be pretty busy for me!

Question time!

Did you hit snooze today?
How many times do you usually hit that snooze button?
What would you rather be doing right now?

jenna8984 · August 2015

That's awesome- I hope you really like it and have a great day!!!

Did you hit snooze today? No- never.

How many times do you usually hit that snooze button? NEVER. I have never understood why people wake up every 5 minutes until their time when they could just get solid sleep right up til their time. I'd much rather get solid ass sleep til 6:15 then jump up and go.

What would you rather be doing right now? anything...bed, couch, Caribbean island...

I think we're geting pizza at work for lunch so at least that's exciting lol

Morning! I had to walk in the rain which was no fun at all and my feet are just now finally dry and warm. Not a whole lot going on here. I wasn't around yesterday (I was REALLY into the book I spent the day reading since work was super quiet -- I finished it this morning) so HI.

Tonight, H is going for a new tattoo and I'm going to FaceTime with @GoldenPenguin for the PLL summer finale while probably also texting @speakeasy14. I AM SO NERVOUS I CAN'T EVEN.

Did you hit snooze today?

Nope!

How many times do you usually hit that snooze button?

I'm not usually a snoozer. I might snooze once a week for like 5 minutes.

What would you rather be doing right now?

It is rainy and gross and I'm at work. I'd rather be at home in my jams with my pup and kitters.

untouchablets · August 2015

@jenna8984 you have a point about getting solid sleep, but when I have to wake up at 4:30am to go to work the extra 5 minutes makes a BIG difference lol. I usually hit it once

[Deleted User] · August 2015

Good morning!

So far this morning is playing nice, so I can't complain. MIL stayed with her sister again last night (cue happy dance). I cleaned the entire house, especially the kitchen. She leaves the skillet with the leftover oil in it on the stove until the next time she cooks (she fries EVERYTHING) and it made my house smell like a leftover food booth at the fair. I diffused some Thieves and Citrus smells. So now my house is clean and smells fresh. H and I also had some bonding time last night.

Did you hit snooze today?

Nope! I was awake before H's alarm went off at 4:45. I laid there and snuggled with Baxter until about 5 AM and then got up.

Sometimes I hit it once, but I don't really go back to sleep because I have one of those sunrise wake-up clocks. I just lay there and cuddle the dogs until it goes off again.
What would you rather be doing right now?
I'd rather be at home, in my PJs, reading a new book.

lavenderfields13 · August 2015

Did you hit snooze today? YES

How many times do you usually hit that snooze button? Lately- twice. I totally get what @jenna8984 is saying- it makes perfect sense but I still can't help hitting that damn button!

What would you rather be doing right now? Sleeping for sure

Ugh so Tuesdays always go by SO slowly for me and it's rainy and crappy out- I feel like this day will go on forever. Last night we went to look at that apartment and it was such a let down. It was really crappy inside

So disappointed. The search continues. Then me an H got into a fight on the way home after dinner and didn't say goodnight to each other. So that was fun.

I might have a meeting today and I need to go to the library after work to return books and pick up a new one. I need to get out for a walk but if it's still crappy out I'll just stay in and read and work on TY notes.

@untouchablets Hope the first day is great!

lavenderfields13 · August 2015

@cocobellaF I got one of those sunrise alarm clocks this past winter to help me get up in the morning when it's still pitch black. H hated it and wants to destroy it- we work opposite schedules so when I'm getting up it's like the middle of the night for him so a simulated sunrise in the middle of the night kinda sucks lol. Oh well I'm keeping it! It's my only hope for getting out of bed in the winter.

minskat30 · August 2015

Morning!

@untouchablets - Good luck today!!!

@swazzle - What new tattoo is your H getting?

@cocobellaf - I'm glad you got your couple time in.

@jenna8984 - I don't understand snoozing either.

@lavenderfields13 - Ugh, sorry about the apartment and the fight. Hugs.

Did you hit snooze today?

-Nope
How many times do you usually hit that snooze button?

-Never
What would you rather be doing right now?

-Anything? On vacation in Mexico by the pool.

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

Busy day today at work here, guys. I also have to head home for lunch for what is hopefully our final "final" basement inspection. Please God, let him not find anything or be in a great mood today, I can't wait to be done with these yahoos. H had to work today in another city so I'm on my own with them and I CAN'T EVEN HAVE ONE OUNCE OF PATIENCE for them so hopefully I don't blow my lid. Wish me luck please!

After lunch, I'll head back to work and then spin tonight. I haven't been to the gym in like four days so I've got to get back on it.

[Deleted User] · August 2015

@untouchablets That's so cool about the dog training mentor! I hope you have a great first day!

@Swazzle What design is he getting? Is he adding it to his other tattoos?

@lavenderfields13 I'm sorry the apartment didn't work out. Hopefully one will come up for you guys soon!

So yesterday I went and bought some essentials for Callie...I think I'm starting to get into this nesting phase where I need to just do everything now clean, prepare, organize, etc....I just feel like time is gone and I need to do it all NOW! lol. I put together her Baby Bag last night for the hospital and tonight I'll wash her clothes and put those in there too. It's making me so anxious but really excited. I'm on a birth month board on another forum and there have been 2 babies born so far that were due for September. They are both doing great too but I just can't believe it's almost time!

Did you hit snooze today?

Negative Ghost rider. If I hit snooze then I'm late and I HATE being late.
How many times do you usually hit that snooze button?

If I hit it at all it's only once and then I usually go into panic get ready really fast mode.
What would you rather be doing right now?

Getting things done at home instead of being at work.

Swazzle · August 2015

@minskat30, @southernpeach89 - I think he's getting a traditional style lantern on the same arm he's been working on for a while. He gave his tattoo artist a ride from the airport over the weekend so he said he'd hook him up this week. Will report back tomorrow!

jenna8984 · August 2015

@swazzle What's the tattoo? I just messaged my artist about getting an appointment but I think he's in Ecuador for a few more weeks. He's originally from there so he goes for months at a time.

@lavenderfields13 Boooooo sorry the apartment sucked!!

@minskat30 Good luck with the basement! And thank you, another non-snoozer!

cu97tiger · August 2015

Morning ladies. @swazzle - I haven't watched PLL in years but I'm still interested to see who A is!

@southernpeach89 - Holy crap, 34 weeks! Time is flying!

I had a great workout this morning. I'm not really feeling a whole lot better, but I guess I'm getting used to having a stuffy nose and no sense of smell. For some reason I just couldn't fall asleep last night. Normally I'm asleep by 9/9:30, but last night I was wide awake until 1am. Stupid brain going a million miles an hour. And stupid Candy Crush for taking THIRTY MINUTES to give me a new life.

This morning I have a call with the hiring manager for a Director position that I interviewed for back in June. Gut feeling is I didn't get it, but the wording of her email makes me think that she has some other opportunity she wants to talk to me about.

Did you hit snooze today?

Nope.
How many times do you usually hit that snooze button?

Never. 90% of the time, I wake up before my alarm. Once my alarm goes off, though, I'm up. Doesn't matter if I've had 4 hours of sleep or 8.
What would you rather be doing right now?

Laying on the couch in our library reading a book and some hot chocolate (even though it's not cold, it's gloomy, so it feels like a hot chocolate kind of day).

LizzyTish88 · August 2015

Hi Ladies! Work is busy today and I have to sneak off to do the payroll, but I will be back later today!

Last night we had the second week of cheer start, and we actually have enough girls and coaches to have three teams! I am so excited. Last year we struggled for two, so this is a huge improvement! I can't wait to keep building this program and I'm so happy for the little ones to finally be on a competition team!

Did you hit snooze today?

Yes, I do all the time.

How many times do you usually hit that snooze button?

Three. It takes me a while to fully wake up, so I do it to gradually get up. I know it makes no sense at all but it's a routine I've fallen into and can't get out of.

What would you rather be doing right now?

Sleeping, sitting on a beach in some nice weather, anything....

Call me crazy, but this baby rhino is the cutest ever. I just had to share!! LINK

So freaking cute!!! The backward steps when he sees the camera person is what does it for me.

speakeasy14 · August 2015

@untouchablets good luck with your first day!

Did you hit snooze today? I am not a morning person. I have three alarms set, so instead of hitting snooze, I turn the alarm off because I know another one will go off in fifteen minutes. There's the time to shower and actually do my hair and makeup alarm. The shower and quick make up alarm. And the well you have 15 minutes before you have to leave alarm. Today was a 15 minutes before I had to leave day. I'm rocking the wet dog look.
How many times do you usually hit that snooze button? See above question
What would you rather be doing right now? Sleeping. Oh how I miss sleeping on a normal sized bed, not in a construction zone.

Tonight is the PLL summer finale! They have a hour to answer 6 seasons of questions, we'll see if that happens.

[Deleted User] · August 2015

@Caseface5 I love hearing about your cheerleading teams! It makes me have all those memories again and I can vicariously live my coaching dreams through you lol

jenna8984 · August 2015

@cu97tiger sucks you didn't sleep. When I have those nights when I hit 1-2 hours past my bedtime and I'm not asleep, I get up and take nyquil. It's not very often so I don't worry about it becoming dependent or anything. But I'm the same way a you, once I'm up I'm up. There is NO dozing off or falling back asleep. I've always been a morning person. Good luck on the job.

Sleeping

It's rainy today but te lawn and garden needs it. I feel prettty tired I was up later than normal last night. I didn't want to go to bed. Also H was helping me set up the new kindle he got for me. I feel rather upset and perhaps irrationally so, my mom never called or text about my birthday. She posted on my FB wall but that's about it. I got calls from IL's, my aunt, an email from H's 97 year old grandma, a text from H's aunt. My own mother can't even bother to at least text me. I was actually crying this morning when getting ready for work. Anyways 3 weeks from today is test attempt #2.

@cu97tiger sorry you were up so late. I hate when my brain can't shut down at night.

@caseface5 Sounds like coaching will be great this year.

@southernpeach89 another squash there are so many. Wow it's crazy there are women already having their babies

@minskat30 good luck with the basement today.

@untouchablets Good luck with the new mentor

@swazzle What book did you read? I'm dying to download something new to my kindle tonight.

lavenderfields13 · August 2015

Wow I'd be really upset too @peaseblossom55. Do you have a good relationship with your mom?

Swazzle · August 2015

@peaseblossom55 - Happy belated birthday! I'm sorry your mom didn't reach out at all, that would really upset me too. I read 'Into the Darkest Corner' by Elizabeth Haynes. It is very dark and creepy and pretty long (about 600 pages) but I read it in less than 24 hours because I literally couldn't put it down.

minskat30 · August 2015

Hugs @peaseblossom55 - That just sucks.

Peaseblossom55 · August 2015

@swazzle Thank you! That sounds like a good book!

@lavenderfields13 Yea we have a pretty good relationship, so I'm pretty upset by it.

jenna8984 · August 2015

@peaseblossom55 sorry about your mom! My mom jut leaves a "HB" on people's facebook and I'm like seriously??? This is the simplest, most impersonal way of communicating and you really can't even type out the words happy birthday?!

MissKittyDanger · August 2015

@peaseblossom55 *hugs*

Did you hit snooze today?

No.
How many times do you usually hit that snooze button?

I don't, it's a radio.
What would you rather be doing right now?
Sleeping.

I love how today's is about sleep and I've had a really shitty past 12 hrs so I'm in a pretty crabby mood now.

After work I had to go to the dentist for a cleaning. It was something I held off on doing for awhile because of the wedding. Last year I capped out on my benefits with tiny fillings.

So anyways .... I go last night and find out that I've been brushing wrong. So the hygienist advises me to use a close-up mirror. Not only that, I had plaque and tartar build up and causing issues on my teeth. Dentist comes in to take a quick peak, and we figure out that my acid reflux is the cause of this! Not only did I not finish my fillings last year, but I may have more.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!! Urg .... so I have to go buy expensive mouth wash that is high in fluoride to help my teeth.

Get home, Matt made spaghetti and the sauce didn't turn out great but oh well. Serious rage mood.

Yesterday Matt had been home with a migraine, and seemed fine when I went to bed. 3:30am I wake up to get water, he wakes up with excruciating pain. He's up for the better part of an hour, and so am I. He ended up going to sleep on the couch because if he didn't then neither of us would sleep.

I think diet has a huge part in both our issues, so I am revamping what we eat.

Rainy day today. I would have loved to stay home and catch up on sleep, but there is enough to do at the office this week I really can't. Hopefully Matt can get into a clinic today.

speakeasy14 · August 2015

@peaseblossom55 big hugs for you! Hopefully your mom was just being flaky, and didn't mean to not call.

Peaseblossom55 · August 2015

@speakeasy14 It's very possible she was being flaky. I don't think she intentionally didn't call, I'm sure she just "forgot" or got busy. I keep debating if I should send a nasty email or text her way, I just don't know what it would accomplish.

GoldenPenguin · August 2015

@peaseblossom55 - I'm sorry about your mom. I would be upset too, for sure. Maybe she has a good reason? I hope she apologizes.

@swazzle & @speakeasy14 - I LITERALLY CANNOT WAIT. I actually get butterflies when I think about it. I'm so nervous.

@cu97tiger - I am crossing ALL the things for you. I hope you feel better soon too!!

@minskat30 - Can I come to Mexico with you, please?

@CocoBellaF - That rhino is the cutest! His little trot at the end!!

*****

Did you hit snooze today?

Always.
How many times do you usually hit that snooze button?

Multiple. It's bad.
What would you rather be doing right now?
Snuggled on the couch with my puppy & kitten.

This is the first time I'm actually glad that my new office doesn't have a window, because I can't see the rain, so it's making me less tired.

I was supposed to make the Blue Apron Chicken Tortas last night, but when I cut the avocado, it was brown inside, and then I opened the chicken and it smelled funny, so I tossed everything and H ordered dinner from our favorite pizza place. Sigh. I probably should have put the chicken in the freezer when it came since I knew we weren't going to eat it right away, but I didn't. Oh well. A new shipment comes today, and we'll get to eat everything this week.

Violet was being a princess with H this morning & didn't want to go out in the rain & pee, so I had to take her out. I'm wearing my new booties. I didn't bring lunch. I'm very random this morning.

labro · August 2015

@Peaseblossom55 I wouldn't do anything nasty. It really sucks your mom didn't contact you directly but I'm sure it wasn't malicious. I just realized I forgot to contact my BIl directly on his birthday, so it does happen.

@untouchablets Good luck on your first day!

@minskat30 All the vibes that your inspection goes well today!!!!

There's nothing super exciting going on today for me I guess. I ordered a bunch of stuff from ThredUp that should arrive today. I'm really hoping it all turns out and is good quality!

This afternoon I have a belated birthday lunch at a NOLA style restaurant and I can't wait! I'm going to eat ALL the food!

Swazzle · August 2015

@labro - The stuff I ordered from ThredUp and the booties and anorak from Charlotte Russe arrived yesterday and I absolutely love everything. Except one shirt which I do love, it's just too tight on my chest.
