Re: Ten Things Tuesday
1. Just got my $40 refund from the State of Georgia deposited into my account. I always owe those bastards for some reason, so I am stoked about it.
2. Excited for the week after next at work. Most everyone is going to a trade show so I can goof off most of that week.
3. Shiloh cut a molar! She now has the top front two, bottom front two, one incisor and this molar.
4. I finally have a walker! She still hasn't figured out how to stand back up without anything to pull up on though, so if she falls she crawls the rest of the way
5. Taking her to a pedi opthamologist Thursday for an eye exam. She has been doing an eye rolling thing for a couple weeks now. I can't find a pattern to it, and when it happens it is over in a second or two. Pedi referred me to a neuro, both docs said she looks great upon physical exam, but before we go to the next step (30 minute EEG) I am getting her eyes checked. I truly feel all of this is me just freaking out unneccesarily, and that my kid just likes to roll her eyes, but I have to go "down the list" and follow all the doc's suggestions to rule other things out as well. It's a little stressful.
6. I just ate a giant veggie sandwich with avocado spread, lettuce, cukes, tomato and lots of provolone on 7-grain bread for lunch and it was yummy.
7. Shall I follow it up with a Twix? TBD in about an hour....(me and my sugar addiction)
8. Still in dire need of a mani pedi. But with all the co-pays and deductible to consider to investigate Shiloh's eye thing, I won't be getting that done any time soon.
9. Saw part of my FIL's ashes in a ziplock baggie (!!!) yesterday. So bizarre. All his kids got a baggie with part of him. We put it inside another ziplock and put it in our lockbox until H can have the container he is using as an urn drilled out (it's a piece of wood from his dad's lake cabin property).
10. Selfie still hasn't posted her birth story. She HAD to have opted for some drugs I am guessing. Oh, and her two weeks post partum belly is flatter than my 14 month post-partum belly. lol
1. Fighting this cold with everything I've got. I hate being sick. Slept terrible last night, must get to bed early tonight.
2. Super excited to spend a night away w/ Rosie at the casino this weekend.
3. Going to get a new outfit for ^^.
4. Thank you Kohls and 30% off for ^^^.
5. Whitney said Mom once last night. She has discovered the M and N sounds lately. I know she doesn't know she is saying it, but it was cool to hear it nontheless!
6. She also started to clap last night.
7. She is big on the zombie walk, and thinks its hilarious. I will try to capture this on film tonight. Rosie did see it. It is mostly when she is showing off for someone she doesnt see often. She puts her arms forward like a zombie, throws her head back, and walks like 10 steps cackling. I'm positive she has NOT seen walking dead. I don't know where she got this, but it is hilarious!!!
8. I need to get back to work :-(
9. I'm tired.
10. I'm really really tired.
1. I do not care for Turksih food. Last night there was a club sandwich on the menu but it was grilled chicken, scrambled egg & veal bacon. BARF!!
2. Joshua is still not walking yet. He will let go and take a couple of steps and grab back onto something or sit down.
3. Before our meeting started at 3pm today I went sightseeing with a colleague from another location. We walked over 5 miles - I checked to be sure he knew CPR when we were coming back up the hill to the hotel because I thought I was going to die! I am sooo out of shape- it sucks.
4. European shirts suck! I got ones in my normal size- no prayer of buttoning - went up one size and I think I will get away with wearing it under my jacket for the big dinner. But I am wearing a tank top underneath to keep from being the girl who flashes everyone.
5. I really need to go to bed - it is 11:45pm here.
6. I just got a pissy e-mail from a customer. The guy is such a jerk. I stayed up after dinner to get information for him last night. I was going on 26 hours with no sleep.
7. DH is taking me and the kids to Myrtle Beach next weekend. It will be a nice treat. We rented a 2 bedroom condo.
8. March 8th is International Women's Day - I think my male colleagues had better be extra nice to me that day.
9. Joshua is imitating people on the phone. When he sees you on the phone he puts his hand to his ear and says hello.
10. My fingernails are driving me crazy. They are so soft that when they get any length they tear off really short. My thumbnails are the worst.
1. I'm so ready for my mini "Vegas" trip with Marsam!
2. It's so freaking nice out!
3. Cooper got another tooth this past weekend. That makes 7.
4. Making plans to do some work on Cooper's play room and our living room. I can't wait to get it done.
5. I think i'm going to spend a fortune in this weeks Avon catalog. Shameless plug- If anyone is interested in Avon..PM me
6. Cooper does "touchdown" and it's so cute.
7. My H is getting pizza for dinner...YUM.
8. I have to dog sit tomorrow....BOO.
9. I finished a box of girl scout cookies today. (Somoas)
10. Is it Saturday yet?
I saw on FB a little bit ago that she just finished it and just has to proof read and add some final pictures. I'm so anxious to read it, it's been over a month!! I really hope she got drugs. Andplusalso, I wonder if she'll look back 20-30 years from now and wish she had at least some pictures of her daughter unedited. She's a beautiful baby, why edit her pictures? Why edit any baby pictures?
1. E went to day care for 2 hours today for the first time and ended up being held the entire time. I wish she would have done better but I'm really happy she didn't scream the entire time. Hopefully she does better Friday.
2. I went and treated myself to lunch while she was there at this Mongolian place DH wont go to and my friend can't go to because of GD. It was sooooooo good!! I think I could eat there everyday and not get sick of it.
3. My mom sent DH an Easter basket down with his mom on Thursday and we've eaten almost all of the candy already.
4. I'm getting pretty close to a girl I met down in Georgia and is now stationed here. We only met like twice before we both came here and didn't really click either of those times but the more we hang out the more I realize it's because we're a lot alike.
5. We find out what the baby is on Monday and I found out DH will still be here but just might miss the actual ultrasound. I'm so excited that he's going to be home to find out.
6. My MIL and mom are both freaking out about me not coming home to have the baby (almost 7 hours away) but I just feel like it would be such a hassle to get a refferal up there again, get my records sent, get doctors appointments for those last couple weeks, pack up E, myself, and stuff for the new baby, and somehow get still keep up with all the bills and such for the apartment by myself at 9 months pregnant with an 18 month old. I told them I would think about it but I'm not sold.
7. I really don't feel like cooking dinner tonight so I'm hoping I can convince DH to just order pizza..
8. I went to Starbucks after my walk today with a friend and E sat in a booth like a big girl the entire 40 minuets we were there. She never would have done this a few months ago and I was so proud of her.
9. E also quacked at the geese today while we were walking. She had just got done crying for a minuet so she was sitting there very serious with one tear on her cheek and when my friend and I told her to say quack she just said it as serious as could be.
10. I feel like these 10 things were a lot harder to come up with than previous ones.
1. I got an interview!!! It's for a 2-year training program at a really prestigious university. To complete the program, you have to have a grant application ready to submit. It's a really good opportunity to get guidance for the next stage of my career, something that I got none of from my PhD supervisors. I think it'll pay peanuts. Literally peanuts. I hope if I get it'll at least cover the cost of the train and daycare.
2. I find it really hard not to worry that DD is behind on things, even though I know she is fine. Every time she isn't doing the exact thing I think she should be doing because of books I worry. I hope I don't give her a complex.
3. Our tax refund is high, but way lower than we expected because we didn't realize how much more tuition we paid last year than this year. It is a bummer.
4. We didn't plan ahead for DH's costume for tomorrow night (Jewish holiday of Purim). He's going as Pharaoh. We were considering going into NYC to pick one up but then my mom said she'd make something for him. Turns out, my BIL had one! Pretty cool.
5. DD has a boyfriend. He's 20 months old. We had a playdate on Saturday and he was SO excited to have her at his house that he was super wild. She went over to him making kissing noises until he gave her a kiss. The next day we hung out with a different family with a 20 month old son who tried to hold DD's hand but she would not let him. Should I make her an account on The Knot??
6. I used Super Glue to fix something today and got some on my fingers and now I'm pretty sure it'll never come off.
7. I am procrastinating on joining a gym in part because I'm lazy and in part because of the cost but I really need to exercise so I can fit my clothes.
8. I can't stop thinking about job stuff all the time and it's giving me panic attacks.
9. It doesn't seem to matter how much junk we get rid of, our place is ALWAYS full of clutter.
10. We finally caught a mouse!
