It's snowing!
in Wedding Woes
I'm WFH watching the snow, I have a holiday party tonight I'm excited about, tomorrow is pay day and Husband has decided to run for the State seat!
Meanwhile, my dog is laying in my bed while I work from the sofa and that just seems so unfair!
Bring on Prudie!

Re: It's snowing!
Your holiday party sounds like fun!
We are supposed to get snow - or snain (snow/rain mix) this weekend. I am so not ready for it yet. I realize it's December and I live in New England, but I really can't deal with snow until after December 15 lol. Today I am WFH because Babypants has her 4-month checkup. H is coming with me - we have a bunch of questions for the doc so I am looking forward to the appointment!
Other than that, SSDD.
I saw a post from a comedian (Whitney Cummings) on FB who tried the new Hanacure mask. I never heard of it, so I googled and read reviews on it. The reviews are amazing. Do I want this? and why?
It's also snowing here.
Not much here today. Meetings most of the day. H leaves again for camp. I'm really ready for all his hunting season traveling to be over. He loves it, but it's exhausting this time around since we're in an apartment and the dog can't just run around in a fenced in back yard. Still super bummed about the house. Really ready for the weekend.
Hoping all our Southern California Knotties are safe! @levioosa are you near there?
I'm working from home today and plowing through Hallmark Christmas movies as background noise. i think I've gotten to the point of watching too many of them because even I'm annoyed by the cheesiness and impractical parts.
I got my Taylor Swift tickets yesterday. DH is so happy. My friend is doing her pre-sale today and I hope she can get close to our section.
I'm watching the fall town hall right now. Work is super slow, so the next couple weeks are going to be so painful.
We got the Christmas tree decorated last night after DD went to bed. She will be amazed by it this evening when it will be lit. LOL! There is one ornament low enough for her to play with and its baby safe. So we will see if she goes for it!
Tonight is our Holiday party for work. It's at a local country club and is usually a pretty good time. I don't stay as late anymore, but I'm always happy to eat the food and drink the booze!
Have fun at your holiday party
It's flakey here. Roads/sidewalks are snowy and slick also from yesterday's rain. M still hasn't done his tires, so that's awesome ...
M hates purolator. Nov 28th said it was leaving Vancouver. No updates until Dec 4th, says it's in Toronto {4hr drive from us} and then no update.
M is bitching about their system being horrible.
Last night about 6pm, doorbell goes. Wtf?
IT'S THE FUCKING TV!! Shits 'n giggles, M checks tracking number. STILL SAYS IN TORONTO!
I joked we're getting 2 tv's now lol
Had prenatal this morning. I was so glad I booked early so M could come.
WE HEARD THE HEARTBEAT!!! 153bpm and super strong!
Apparently I'm carrying like a ball, which dr said I'll know better later this month about how I'll be carrying. She figures I'll be all baby and rest will be fine.
Eek! So exciting
Gained 6lbs - which I was surprised because it doesn't feel like I have, but once dr saw my bump while lying to do doppler she said that's where the weight is.
No issues finding it.
Omg I'm dying
Anywhere between the 5th and 19th is my anatomy scan, so we'll see what gender is.
Dr says I'm carrying like a boy, but I feel it's a girl. It's 50/50 so we'll see.
@kimmiinthemitten, that is so exciting your H is running for the State seat! Wow! Good luck to him.
Not in NOLA, but it is predicted there will be snow flurries tomorrow morning about 30 minutes north of us. Does that count, lol? In my immediate area, we're dropping from lows in the 60s last week to lows in the 30s (but not below freezing). Apparently winter has arrived!
This morning, my H was laughing that he had to pry our dog out of bed with a crowbar. I'm sure the temps dropping was part of that.
For once, I'm having a hard time believing it is already Thursday. Feels like Wednesday, still. But it's great, because I keep being pleasantly surprised when I remember it really is Thursday.
Tonight is a going away party for one of our friends. It will be sad but he did not enjoy living here so it is better for him to leave.
We picked up the keys to our new place (again) and I am embarrassed to admit that I was using the door key in the gate and the gate key in the door. My bad. The company cleaned it and it is sooo much better. I measured the windows for curtains and the yard for landscaping.
One of the ladies in my coffee group announced that she is pregnant and we are so excited for her. They have been trying for a very long time.
tomorrow is Company Fun Day. Someone signed DH up for an obstacle course. It’s a 3k and described as being for those “in peak physical condition”, lol. Hope he doesn’t die.
@MissKittyDanger - I've gained about 11lbs so far this pregnancy and I definitely feel it. Blah! idk why but it feels like my body is constantly saying "eat that cheesy gordita crunch and let me promptly place it on your muffin top." Who else is pregnant up in here? I know there's someone else...
I am really looking forward to tomorrow. Most obviously, it's Friday. But it's also the day DH gets home from being OOT for work. Yay! AND I'm WFH tomorrow.
Do y'all send Christmas cards? It seems like everyone does the picture ones these days, but I've been off my picture game this year and I look fat/gross/tired in every family photo we have. I don't wannaaaaaa, but DH really wants to. Ugh.
ETA: I just realized I did actually say this in my last post. I promise I can read, but I cannot promise that my brain scan doesn't look like the one from the "walkers" on the Walking Dead.
How far along are you again? I know you're further
I'm pretty sure someone else is .... but idk who either lmao!
I need more coffee.
To another question, we're going to send Christmas cards, but I'm just going to handwrite little notes in a normal Christmas card, not make a point of getting pictures or doing a picture one.
ETA - Thanks to everyone else too! I'm really proud of him, proud to have married someone who was recruited to take on such a job and proud that he's willing to take such a risk and walk away from a job he loves in hopes of changing the profession for the better.
We're trying to do a photo card. We just need someone to take the photo and something to semi-tranquilize the pup so she sits with us.
Also, @ILoveBeachMusic's daughter is pregnant with twins. I think the daughter is within a week or two of @MissKittyDanger.
Nope, we don't know. DD's convinced it's a girl, and she was so adamant she had us almost convinced too, but DH and I are swinging the other way now. We kind of do two names per sex - leaning towards one, but just in case he/she doesn't really seem to match that, there's a backup.
I think DH is good with our names as of recently (he was previously meh) when we revisited the middle name on our frontrunner for a boy; he liked the other middle name candidate, but he likes this one more because he wants there to be some kind of family connection.
