Our short-term roommate woke up at 4 am to leave for a flight. Cue my dogs barking.
So I am now sleep deprived, got a stark what BFN this morning, the bells are out at school so the students are walking in late like it's no big deal, and it's MONDAY.
I work near a super market which has a food/salad buffet along with other "food stations" so to speak. Well now that school has started if you decide to go there at lunch it is FULL with ridiculously annoying and rude teenagers. It was a freaking madhouse and it annoyed me. Took me an extra 5 minutes to get my stuff and leave. I only *get a 30 minute break, so 5 minutes makes a big difference.
Argh I don't want to diet or watch what I eat EVER. Where is that freaking magic pill for weight loss! I cheated on Monday with a chocolate croissant for breakfast.
Mine is pretty minor but magnified because I woke up with a headache. I stayed in bed for awhile but couldn't sleep any longer so decided to get up and make my usual glass of matcha and Maca. My regular glass was in the dishwasher so I grabbed a different one. Put the powders in the glass with a little bit of warm water and then put a spoon in to stir it all up before adding cold water. Well, all of a sudden, the spoon managed to break the shitty glass and matcha/Maca/water mixture and broken glass went everywhere: my sleep shirt, the floor, the cabinets. UGHHHHHH!!! I should have stayed in bed!
Denver's housing market has me on an emotional rollercoaster and I am about to legitimately lose my mind. WHICH makes me feel spoiled and ungrateful which only makes me more emotional. #firstworldproblems
I start my semester today and I'm definitely not ready to go back. I was supposed to be productive before my classes start at 3:00 today but apparently I'm more interested in the Google rabbit hole. On Saturday, while at the airport on our layover, I checked my email (didn't have access to Internet for the majority of our vacation) and wouldn't you know it, one of my classes had been dropped due to lack of enrollment. Luckily I was able to pick one up in the same time slot.... But, you know, glad I shelled out $100 on a book for a class that now isn't happening! No way I am paying bookstore prices for my new class either so... Bout to buy them on Amazon. Nobody does the readings the first class anyway right?!
And lastly, tomorrow I have to wake up at 5:10 AM for first shift, which sucks because I typically fall asleep at 1AM. It also may throw off my temps which I've been taking at 7:30ish. Aside from the lack of sleep I'm anticipating, I'm worried about what it may do to my temp since I'm hoping to see a spike tomorrow. After working 6:30-3:00, I have a 3 hour gap for homework/internship work before my 6-9 PM class. It will be a long day every Tuesday this semester. I'm soooo not ready to get back into the swing of things!

@mrs35 That is HORRIBLE I would be so upset! I have like ten shows I am going to eventually watch that I just haven't yet lol.
So many things are annoying me I really don't know where to start. I skipped my weigh in again this morning because I just can't get with the program and keep going back and forth between I don't care if I lose weight and then back to WHY DID YOU EAT THAT! It's an inner battle! @avas_dream if you find the magical pill please share!

There is a woman at work 98% of the time I can`t stand. The 2% liking comes from a bottle of wine she brought me CD1 lol
Well... because the other lawyer in town`s wife passed away, we`ve been handling all his appointments too. We`re basically running his practice which is 100% because, you know, grief. The woman in the office I don`t like tends to leave stuff til the last minute to get clients in. I told her that the other firm wanted some time on Tuesday, would she want morning or afternoon for the appointment she needed, and I`d give the other to the other firm. She said she wanted morning.
So she`s leaving for lunch and comes by my desk to see the appointment book. ``I said wanted afternoon!" No you didnt, you wanted morning. "FINE. I'll come in super f*cking early AGAIN tomorrow." Like how is this my fault? She's the worst.
Well let's see... I locked myself out of my house this morning as I'm leaving for work. Luckily, DH was working close by so he was able to let me back in. Once I get to school only ONE of my students showed up to take their test. Mildly annoyed by this. Then fast forward to my staff meeting for my "real job" and my boss tells us all the he's resigning. I don't even want to entertain the thoughts on how this will effect everything. And now, cue the "back cramps" at 9dpo. And my day is no where close to over. Just another day in paradise y'all.
I love the kids I teach. I'd take a bullet for them in a heartbeat. With that said, they're making me feel so crazy with frustration. I'm literally in the middle of explaining something, and they'll interrupt to ask me how to do the thing I'm explaining. It's taking a whole new level of zen to keep from jamming a pencil into my eye. During a test, I said FIVE times not to write in the test booklet. Six of them marked their answers in the booklet. Even after I showed them exactly where to make any marks. I've never had a class this bad at listening. I've had individuals that were tricky but this is the majority of the class.
Its cd1 and I went to Paneta for lunch. I got a grilled cheese and added on the bakery item (chocolate croissant) for $0.99 ( because CD1). Well... They accidentally gave me TWO chocolate croissants. And I devoured both of them dammit. And now I feel even crappier.
It's CD2 and I haven't even been able to muster up the desire to eat badly. Yesterday I stayed on the low carb train, even though I felt like doo doo. Well, except the brownie for dessert, but I always do that on the weekends.
Aaand as I type this, I've decided I'm having a big, delicious burger in the airport while I wait for the plane that will take me on vacation for the next four days. In my hometown, with my four nieces and one nephew. This is all very lovely except it's a huge reminder that my two sisters have five kids between them and I haven't had one, and it's mother-effing CD2.

This is one of the tough things about having sisters while TTC. My sisters are on to their second and I'm not even at one yet.
It's so hard to see my mom gushing all over about her grandkids and wishing so hard I could give her some from me.
@Aurora1973 I wish I could offer some sage advice about your vacation. You love your nieces and nephews but at the same time.... all the sadness and jealousy. I hope you are able to enjoy yourself as much as possible and are able to keep your mind off TTC.
Can I just also add that I reached a settlement for a client, an e-mail confirming the amount, 3 releases confirming the amount but due to a type-o on the fax cover letter, the shorted us $10,000.00 and when I called to inquire he said "Oh, the letter said ($10,000 less than original amount) and I was like... yes it did but everything else including the releases said (actual amount) so when might we expect to receive the rest of the settlement?

What does he say?
"Sue me, bitch."
I'll see you in court muthafukka.
HOLY SHIT! I do not know how you deal with those sort of people on a daily basis!
@Aurora1973 DH and I have a total of 7 sisters with 12 kids. They range from 1 year to 12 years old. No one has bothered to save anything for our kids - they just give it away to friends who are having babies before us. DH had to wrestle his sister's crib away from his mom who wants it for when grandkids stay over (none stay!!!) so we will have one. The kids are a nice distraction from not having our own yet thought!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
@Dilynne thank you! He wasnt close enough by any means that I am crying or anything, like, I only saw him a few times a year, but they were good visits and his wife is a lovely human and it makes me sad for her.
There is a tropical storm heading our way tomorrow. We are on vacation in NC for the next several days. I love beach weather and I know the storm will make all the pretty seashells come to shore, I selfishly want to get as much "sun time" as possible with DS before heading home. I am under the impression that as soon as we get back, it's fall time
Monday Bitchfestival...it's a Festivus for the rest of us.
@kiwi2628 It's hard when someone who is in that kind of relationship range passes away. On one hand, you feel like you weren't really close so it's silly to be upset but really, you are. So all there really is to do is to take the reminder to let people know how much they mean to you and even for acquaintances, to not get too caught up in the daily rush to make people feel good.
@Aurora1973 I ran across a post someone had made on Facebook about how awesome childless aunts are. She had shared it because it struck a chord with her. So I thought for a moment that maybe I should check it out and see if my younger sister would like it. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks: I'm a childless aunt, too. I hope you have an incredible burger and a great vacation.
@Dilynne What a total a-hole. You know that they knew exactly what it should be and just took advantage of the typo. I hope you get all the money plus interest. It's pretty amazing to go from zero to calling someone a bitch that fast.

DH is a forestry engineer and often takes one of our dogs to work with him. Just got the text that she got sprayed by a skunk today I feel a little bad because I'm mostly worried that it might be even harder to make sexy time happen after having to deal with that and I mean...EWCM, guys!!!!!!
@rainbowturtles Is there any way that it would work to have sex and then wash the dog? Maybe she could just wait outside for a little while? I don't know about how she is with baths but by the time I get done bathing ours, I need a shower and a break.

LoL ya I'm trying to figure out how to swing it. I imagine DH will bathe her and then shower and then we'll need to eat. Not how I hoped it would go but I'll try to figure something out. I do have my new lingerie on hand for when I can find a good time....lol (I was hoping for the usual: have dinner, then he showers and while in shower I was going to get into my lingerie and light candles etc.) WHERE THERE'S A WILL THERE'S A WAY, right??!!! lol
ETA that DH would get nervous if I told him we *need* to BD now so it makes it tricky sometimes. So he came home and went to his workshop to do something and says then he'll bathe the dog and then himself and THEN we'll eat. I feel like he'll be starving by then (and me too so I'm eating a Snickers lmao) so don't know if pouncing when he's out of the shower is a good idea. Why does it have to be so difficult???!!!!
