Re: Ten Things Tuesday

  • 1. I am debating to start using Pinterest. 

    2. DD slept awful last night thanks to my DH letting her nap from 6-8. I was the one that didn't get any sleep instead of him.

    3.  I want to start TTC again but then after nights like last night I don't. I wish it would just happen. 

    4. I can't wait for A's first Christmas!

    5. My parents are getting a rude awakening this Christmas since I told them we would come up after we did our own Christmas at our house first.

    6. I am spending all day Friday helping MIL cook the Christmas meal and I am very excited about it.

    7. I am very fortunate to have the IL that I do have.

    8. I hate now that I am older I always know what gifts I am getting. Selfish I know but I still like to be surprised.

    9. I have to go grocery shopping tonight...maybe I can convince DH to go with me.

    10. I am getting all of the seasons of Big Bang Theory for Christmas so I will be sitting on my butt all weekend watching them ALL!

  • 1. Just got back from the post office and the APC was broken so I had to *gasp* wait in line. I stood there so long that I almost passed out.

    2. My pregnant friend and I are going on a 45 min trip (one way) to get Krispy Kreme donuts and hot cocoa.

    3. I'm getting spoiled while H is home by being able to sleep in. I'm going to need some serious caffeine when he goes back to work. (but not too much! lol)

    4. H's cousin just posted on FB that he got a "77% almost a B" on one of his finals. I rolled my eyes. Yes, almost a B, but it's a C. Are you really proud of doing a mediocre job?

    5. Same cousin from #4 does a certain sport and is sponsored by a certain company. They give him free hats. He sells them to his friends for TWENTY dollars. This pisses me off more than it should.

    6. I was crazy for even considering not getting a tree. I don't care if it's only going to be up for a week, it's perfect.

    7. DD is walking around the house dragging my hoodie behind her and chewing on the zipper pull.

    8. I made it to the second trimester bishes!!!!

    9. We are telling everyone this weekend and I'm nervous as he!l

    10. I am loving getting all these Christmas cards with babies on them this year!

  • 1.  I had 3 Christmas cookies for breakfast this morning.

    2.  My goal was to lose 50 pounds this year.  I am 2 pounds away, but there is no way in H.E. double hockey sticks that is going to happen.  (see above)

    3.  I am really stressed about Christmas. I think we are over-booked and I forsee a major baby meltdown coming. 

    4.  There may be a mommy meltdown too.

    5.  I am going to see the Muppets tomorrow!  I am way more excited than I should be.

    6.  I have to go to the store after work, and it's going to be crazy busy.  Stupid needing diapers and wipes. 

    7.  DS has been constantly shreiking/screaming.  It seems really quite at work even though there are 50+ people talking around me.

    8.  I'm really excited to see what new toys DS likes the best.

    9.  Hopefully we have enough room for all of DS' new toys.

    10.  Only 3 days of work and then 4 off!

  • 1. Was once told I would be laid off, now offered FT at another location with better pay and my head is spinning.

    2. I can't stop staring at the picture of W on my desk today.

    3. Very excited for Christmas, but I really don't want this year to end.

    4. Sort of relieved that some people have RSVP'ed no to W's party. Our house is so small, but either way we will make it work and have a great time.

    5. I'm so pumped to go to church on Saturday evening. I rarely get to go with DD, because the choir really upsets her, or she tries to join in. They turn off the lights every year and we light candles to sing silent night. It is so moving it brings me to tears every year.

    6.  H and I decided to only do stockings this year, and I am a little stumped what to get him. 40 dollar limits.

    7.  My baby is going to be one! WOW!

    8. My sister is approaching 33 weeks, this is the week she had her other children and she is so nervous. I wish I knew the right thing to say to ease her worry.

    9.  Not many ppl in the office this week, which is AWESOME!!

    10. I took this picture yesterday and although many of you saw it on FB- I think it is dang funny, and it is still cracking me up!! Thats my Marley!!

  • 1.  I am super tired this morning, and not motivated to do any work.

    2. It is super quiet in my office today, which does not help me to wake up!

    3. DS cried when I dropped him off at daycare today - for the first time (usually he doesn't care if I leave him) I want to go back and get him!

    4.  I have a few more presents to wrap tonight, then I will be ready for christmas!

    5. I do not like MIL and was not very nice to her - I told her she could come for Christmas at 11 when the rest of her family comes, she wanted to be there when ds wakes up.  - she has seen ds 5 times all year and lives 40 mins away - If she wants to be there for Christmas morning, she should have taken time to see him more throughout the year!

    6. Just found out last night we will be hosting Christmas eve, must come up with appatizers to feed everyone - we also order pizza every year for Christmas eve

    7.  I have not started planning DS bday party yet!  

    8. Someone gave me a cricut earlier this week and I am more excited about that then I am about any Christmas presents for me. 

    9.  I do not like snow - but really hoping we have at least a little on the ground before Christmas

    10. MIL told me if I had not named my child such a God Awful name she would be more likely to remember how to spell it! Kain - not that tricky!  - another reason why she isnt welcome first thing Christmas morning!

    Just tell her "It's not twins!"  That should relax her a bit.  LOL :)

  • 1.  I really miss Roscoe, but after talking yesterday with a friend who knew someone whose 12 year old dog (who was showing signs of stress and aggression) bit a kid in the face (6 surgeries required) I know I did the right thing.  Roscoe is a better dog than that, and I recognized his anxiety level and prevented this from ever happening to Shiloh or another kid.  That all said, I keep asking God to send him to me in my sleep so I can see him again.  :(

    2.  My co-worker is driving me freaking crazy today. 

    3. IS IT FRIDAY YET????

    4. I messed up my personal bookkeeping and realized I don't have enough $ to pay my car note.  Awesome.  Nothing like being behind on your bills to cheer your day along.

    5. ran late this morning because Shiloh had a blowout.  Didn't have time to pack my lunch.  Being broke now I have to decide whether to go hungry, or go buy something cheap (and likely fattening and gross).  Oy.

    6. cell phone contracts suck and should be illegal.

    7. I want to know where Baby Lisa is.  I am sickened by her disappearance.

    8. Shiloh has terrible diaper rash that just popped up yesterday randomly.  She was fine/clear in the morning, and when we picked her up from daycare they told us it was really bad, and it was.  Poor thing.

    9. I need to drink more water

    10. brb off to get lunch.

     

  • 1.  My friend had her second baby this morning!  Brody made his appearence at around 4 this morning.

    2.  Cooper has had the most Fvcked up sleeping schedule lately.  Bed at 11ish-Midnight wake up at 10ish-11ish.  He takes a freaking 3.5 hour nap during the day.  I need to break this habit.  Today he will not be getting a nap.  I'm hoping this will help with the late bed time.

    3.  Cooper and my 4 year old Cousin..Savannah are exchanging presents today.  That should be fun.

    4.  I had Olgas lastnight..yummm

    5.  I'm so excited for Christmas!

    6.  I'm meeting H's SIL and their 9 kids this Christmas Eve.  (I met his Brother once)

    7.  I started selling Avon.

    8.  I'm still hoping it doesn't snow on Christmas.  Ick.

    9.  I wish my best friend, Brian would dump his sorry ass girlfriend so he can be around us more.

    10.  I'm waiting on one more package from that Amazon order.  It should be here today!

  • 1. I haven't even begun to wrap presents and I do not see it happening today.

    2. I am dreading going to my crazy MIL's wedding on Christmas Eve because I know there is going to be DRAMA!

    3. My DH and I decided to not get presents for each other this year because money is tight.. but I feel bad that he won't have anything to open on Christmas morning at our house.

    4. Thankfully, in regards to #3, my parents always splurge on things for DH and myself.

    5. I am so tired of Christmas cookies.

    6. I really can't believe that Christmas is 5 days away! I am so excited to see my girls faces when they open presents!

    7. I am having a Christmas Eve brunch at my house and I have not cleaned yet.

    8. Totally forgot about Christmas cards this year! So I am doing portraits of the girls for their birthdays and mailing those.

    9. I am really excited to start TTC next fall, but I need to lose some extra weight before then.

    10. I wish my best friend lived closer so we could hang out during the hectic holiday stuff, she always makes me laugh.

  • 1. My patient died this morning. I was working an extra shift, and I'm glad I was there. His family is so sweet and they didn't deserve to see their baby suffer like that. His mom hasn't stopped crying since Friday and I think if I had to hold Em's hand and watch her slip away after fighting like hell for weeks to save her someone would have to sedate me to make me let go. We cleaned him up and swaddled him, so they could hold him for the first time ever. They were still holding him when I left and looked so calm and peaceful. I'm sorry to go on but I can't get this out of my head. And I'm even more upset that I won't be able to attend the funeral because we'll be traveling to NE for Christmas. 

    2. I'm going to try to think of eight other things.

    3. My house is in shambles after working 4 straight shifts and DH being a single dad all weekend.

    4. I'm so tired that I can't sleep.

    5. I have tons of bump/fb stuff to catch up on.

    6. I need do all my Christmas baking tomorrow for our friends and neighbors.

    7. I can't wait for Christmas morning to see the kids' faces when they open their gifts from Santa :)

    8. I got my period on Friday. No baby in August :(

    9. DH left me a dozen red roses on the kitchen table this morning for no other reason then to make me happy. I love him so much!

    10. I sent 24 of my diapers to an Etsy chick to get converted from velcro to snaps and just got them back yesterday. They look awesome. I'm so glad I did it!

  • 1.  When I leave work on Thursday I will not have to come back until January 3rd.

    2.  I ordered DS's 1st Birthday cake this morning.

    3.  I saw a 3-week old baby last night and had trouble remembering Joshua being that small - but I know he was.

    4.  I had a great time helping at our church's 'toy store' for the underpriveleged.  It was fun walking around with the parents helping them pick out gifts for their children and getting to know them.  Plus I was proud of teenage son for helping with the children's party that the youth host while the parents shop.

    5.  I am going to have to go on a serious diet after New Year's - I weigh more now than I did at 9 months pregnant. 

    6.  I still have a few Christmas presents to buy.  Plus a pile in my closet to wrap.

    7.  My boss is taking us out for a yummy lunch tomorrow for Christmas plus we have our Sunday School class party tomorrow night.  This will contribute to my issues re: #5.

    8.  We are leaving on Christmas afternoon to be able to go to the Biltmore House on 12/26 with my IL's.  My mom is going to be mad when I tell her today.

    9.  DH ordered Carolina Hurricanes tickets for us for 12/29.  WOOHOO!!

    10.  I am not going to get anything done at home while I am off for Christmas.

  • 1. So many of the above "things" made me tear up.

    2. My SIL left a wig full of hair in my bathroom sink after just stopping by for 1 hour - gross.

    3. My MIL is really upset with me about not seeing JT but I don't know how to help her with this. She lives within walking distance, works only 3 days per week, and I'm SAHM - what's the problem?

    4. JT is going to be inundated with toys for Christmas and then his birthday I think I'm going to save some to open so he has a new toy every month or something.

    5. I've been organizing my home and it feels great to be productive.

    6. I drove all over creation today on a wild goose chase looking for Polish food. Finally found some.

    7. I'm hosting my first Christmas Eve and I'm so excited.

    8. I think DH got me a smart phone and new contract for Christmas and I'm really excited (I've had a stupid phone forever and no service in my own home or within 3 blocks of where I live!)

    9. JT needs a nap - hope he stops crying and passes out soon.

    10. I just ate the yummiest grilled cheese ever.
