Re: Friday Randoms!
I am kind of not looking forward to my work day today because I have a lot of stuff to do, so I'm probably going to go in a little early.
But in good news - I am hoping to leave work by 3:30, DS has already been dropped off at my parents' and will stay there until tomorrow morning, and DH and I are going to our annual "Friendsgiving" celebration tonight. DH is making twice-baked potato casserole, and I am taking sparkling grape and cranberry juice for myself and anyone else who may be pregnant. Yay!
I haven't been in the pottery studio since May and I'm finally going to work on some stuff today. I'm so excited! Since I stopped working early I've been busy doing renos and painting and basically felt like I should be doing productive things. Time for some 'me time'
@maebb Friendsgiving sounds like a blast. When my best friend lived here in TX we'd all get together each year too and it was always so fun and drama free. Plus all the food!!
@MusicFanatic congratulations on going home!!! I miss by bed if I've been gone a nigh or two, I cannot fathom 11 weeks. Hope Zoe continues to thrive and can join you at home very soon!
@MrsDigger10 have fun on your date night! We're seeing Mockingjay at a dine in theater as part of babymoon tomorrow night and I can't wait!!!
Congrats on your daughter and Happy Release Day!
@mmooki What do you teach?
I have a handful of assessments and tests to give between now and Tuesday, which is our last day before break. I also have to teach 2x2-digit multiplication (with the regrouping & special "magic 0") this afternoon from 12:50-2:00. NOT looking forward to that. We've learned it a few of the fancy, new Common Core ways, but putting it all together blows their 4th grade minds.
We also have a busy weekend coming up, with some fun events. My first Morning with Mom event at DS1's preschool is tomororow. Gingerbread houses!
Oh, geez.
It's Friday! I'm going in to work to organize some things, but I only b have a half day.
It's so nice to be "out" but of course my mother has already started posting on FB about it. I think I might miss some of that privacy I had...
@MusicFanatic congratulations on going home. After 11 weeks being away, I'm sure there's no better place to be. And once Zoe joins you there, life will be perfect!
My random... My 34 week appt was cancelled at the last minute yesterday so I have to go next week. That means I've made it to my weekly appts!
Random...I guess kinda bitchy...
Have been awake all night again with this headache.
I have just come to the conclusion that this is just to get me back into the swing of having a newborn to keep me up lol. I'm prepared!!! Go away now...
So exciting that you finally get to go home! Hope your beautiful Zoe can join you there asap.
My randoms:
The Christmas parade here is tonight, and the boys are SO EXCITED to go! I want to take them and have a fun family night, but I'm scared that I'll freeze because I don't have much that fits anymore. Including my winter coat.
All of these sweet LOs who have arrived early are making me even more anxious to have my DD. Obviously, I want her to stay inside for a bit longer, but I wouldn't be opposed if she was ready to come a few weeks early--healthy, of course! Plus, I'm due in exactly one month and a week, ahhh!
I have about a million loads of laundry that need to be folded today. Ugh.
Also, update from yesterday: no cavities!
I have an appointment with an orthopedic specialist this afternoon to address the pain in my upper back. I can't even describe the level of pain this is causing me, and I am pretty sure it is just because something is off kilter due to the loosening of ligaments and whatnot. I would wager a fair guess that he is going to put in my physical therapy, but due to the shortened week next week, I will probably still have to wait until after Thanksgiving to start PT. And, that means another week of excruciating pain. You know it's bad when you are practicing labor breathing exercises to deal with the pain.
I'm sitting in bed with the dog and DD watching cartoons. DH took vacation all next week and I'm so excited to have him home for awhile.
I was about to be super excited that you get to be home for Thanksgiving and then I remembered you're in Canada now...
Happy Going home any anyway!
I'm off all next week and get to meet my nephew and see my niece!!!! Oh, and my sister is coming too
Anyway, my oldest son is from a previous relationship. His dad has since gotten married and they have 2 kids together. Ds1 goes frequently to his dad's house for visits. I posted a belly picture on Monday, and people commented ect. My son's step mom said she should have asked my son the babies name over the weekend when he was there. Thankfully my son doesn't even know the babies name, so he couldn't spill the beans.
Last night while I was making dinner I started to think how rude that was of her, if she in fact would have tried to use my son to get the babies name. So I asked my son of they tried to get the name. YES! They both tried to have him tell the name. Seriously, this upsets me more then it should but it really bothers me! Some people just have no respect and no boundaries!
If I wanted you to know, I'd tell you! It's no secret I'm keeping it from my family, my friends, even my own kids!
Not to mention, with her first she did the same thing. Didn't announce her babies name until he was born, so you'd think she knows exactly how I feel!
Just irks me.
