Morning! Why is the board so dead this week???
Last night we had to cancel cheer because the radar showed rain, and then it never rained. I was so bummed. Can't wait til tonight though! The team is great, and their motions really blew me away the first night! Their tumbling and jumps need work so we can start there! Also my boy, J, is a friggen riot! He is going to teach the girls a thing or two about facials and sass.
Since there was no practice last night, I read through Part One of Cursed Child. I am loving it so far. We had dinner and watched AGT and called it an early night. Tonight will be cheer and AGT.
WWYD: Dinner. We don't have anything really at home so I have to stop out on my way home to pick something up. We won't be eating until about 8 and I want something quick and easy. Suggestions??

I've been feeling like death since Sunday. I caught some sort of stomach bug over the weekend so most of the day Monday and yesterday I've been either sleeping or glued to the bathroom. I'm finally feeling a little back to normal today but I've been having a hard time eating anything. Yesterday I tried to eat some rice or something bland and it still made my stomach hurt.
Callie also has a bit of a cold so I feel awful that she feels bad. She is in good spirits but isn't that interested in eating right now. We have the humidifier and saline drops going during the day so hopefully that starts to help break things up.
Tonight my parents are having guests over that they knew from when my Dad was in the Army. I haven't seen them since I was pretty young so I don't remember them too well. DH is working so we will just hang out with them for the evening.
Also...something kind of exciting...I bought a really cute outfit for Callie's bday. I can't wait for it to be here!!!
@southernpeach89 Sorry that you aren't feeling well! I hope it goes away soon. That outfit is SO adorable! Can't wait to see pics of Callie in it.
EDIT: I forgot to update about myself! Nothing too crazy going on. Been getting up at 5am to run this week since I'm more motivated when it's cooler. H and I are doing Blue Apron this week so it's been fun trying new meals. His brother is in town tonight so we'll go out to dinner with him and he gets the honor of sleeping on our couch.
Today is also my manager's baby shower! Two of my coworkers and I are throwing a joint shower for her and another woman in my dept. who is also pregnant. We have tons of tasty food and will play a couple of games - mostly just guess the due date/stats and name suggestions, nothing too crazy. I'm looking forward to it and I hope she enjoys it!
@southernpeach89 cute! Can't believe she'll be 1 soon!!
@PamBeesly524 Sounds like a fun work day
Not much new. Weekend was pretty low-key.
Friday was the dinner we planned. Red Lobster because it's crab-fest and we're big seafood fans lol
Anniversary was good though
Cupcake lounge did our top tier/cupcakes for the wedding, so we went there for snacks. Matt ended up being hungry so we also stopped at a pub.
We saw the Sound and Light show on Parliament Hill - basically talks about the history of Canada. It's good
Yesterday we ended up stopping at the house because Matt's parents wanted to check out the area and advised us that there was a lot of papers on the stoop.
We go and it was literally ALL flyers and local papers. Guhhh .... so we put it all in the car and made sure we weren't grabbing things we shouldn't.
Then we take a walk around back. We knew the weeds would be bad because when we were there in May, they were high. ONE WEED IS 8 FEET TALL!! Likely we're going to have to take up the stones we have to get it out.
Luckily Matt is into and has knives, because a weed whacker will NOT cut through it. Well .... other than painting, seems our first project will be the backyard!
I got up extra early for my run, and when we got to our park I noticed a fire going in a barbecue. Well, after my mind cleared I realized this park didn't have barbecues, and someone had actually just lit something on fire on top of a picnic table and the table was on fire. This was before 5 am so no one was around. I put out as much as I could with dirt, then flashed down a car and asked them to call the fire department because I don't bring my phone with me.
Anyway, I'm now waiting to take a company plane to the southern Oregon coast, and I've heard the company planes are scary. So I'll miss you guys if I don't make it!
So great diet - "break" your jaw - it's not broken but hurts!
edit: words - I also just noticed this was the NEY board. I usually lurk and never post so Hi
Otherwise this evening I'll be working on my class notes. Nothing much exciting has been happening up here, to be honest.
@AlPacina Holy shit! I'm so glad you spotted that fire before anything worse happened! Also, I really hope you don't die on your company plane.
@southernpeach89 I'm glad we're both feeling better today. Wtf tummies! I hope Callie starts to feel better soon too!
@MissKittyDanger Should you really be picking stuff up from the house? You don't own it yet...regardless of how much stuff is collecting on the front door. I would inform the realtor who is selling the place so the owner can take care of anything of concern.
I've been sick too. My stomach actually started feeling a bit nauseated over the weekend but I thought it was due to a lingering hangover even though I had only had a glass and a half of wine. Then all hell broke loose Monday night. H got sick at work before I took him home and ended up with a fever and then after I went to bed that night I got up several times to empty my poor sad stomach and felt terrible all day on Tuesday. Luckily I feel back to normal today...no stomach cramps after eating and no headaches. Monday evening before I got sick though I got to take my cousin bowling. She loved seeing an American bowling alley, which apparently aren't all that different from the ones in Germany...except ours has a huge arcade, a bar, a restaurant, and other stuff. We both had a great time! We both suck at bowling but I think we each got at least one strike for each of the three games we played so I count that as a success!
Yesterday after work I took her back to my parents house and we stopped at Wal Mart and Costco on the way since she had never been inside either store. She was completely overwhelmed (who wouldn't be???)!
Today I am leaving work early so I can go to my parents house and make deviled eggs as an app for dinner tonight! NOMS!
I hope you didn't actually break your jaw at Crossfit though. Sounds like an extra shitty morning! I hope your day turns around for you.
@PamBeesly524 Have fun with your BIL!!
@AlPacina Come back to us safely! So weird about the fire, but glad you were able to help!
@CharmedPam Well hello there!
@TwoDimes Pizza sounds good too! I'll either do that or pasta!
@KeptInStitches Can't wait to hear what you think about Cursed Child!
@labro Sucky that you didn't feel well either! Bowling is so fun!
I think I may make tomorrow a netflix day though and catch up on TV.
@alpacina safe flight!
@charmedpam hello and stick around! Also hope your jaw starts feeling better.
@peaseblossom55 lots of hugs and kisses your way! Don't think of it as hopeless, think of it as getting pampered!
I'm in the car on my way into the city. Im so freaking excited! I already warned my bf that if Justin timberlake, Jennifer Lawrence, or Mila Kunis are guests I may lose my shit.
