Re: 10 things Tuesday
1. My right shoulder is peeling from a sunburn last weekend.
2. My dog swam for literally 8 hours this weekend. She was zonked out last night!
3. I would rather have it be 35 degrees outside than 90.
4. My house is disgustingly dusty right now.
5. We broke our headboard and bedframe over a month ago, and I'm kind of enjoying sleeping on the floor.
6. I absolutely HATE going to the dentist. It gives me the heebie geebies.
7. DH is starting a sand volleyball league tonight and I'm very jealous I'm not on the team.
8. I went for a 3 mile run this morning.
9. My parents bought a cottage on a lake about an hour from where we live and I can't wait to go up there and hang out without them around!
10. I honestly cannot think of one more thing to write here!

5) I'm sick to death of the elections already
6) I have 10 mosquito bites from this weekend and they are driving me bonkers

I'm so all about rescuing--I worked at a shelter for about a year and it is so so sad how many animals are homeless. If at all possible, rescue!

Hunny, this is NOTHING to sigh about. This is something to CELEBRATE!!
I'm pretty sure you'd have to be a professional wine taster to like your job more than bumping!!

June 2013 - Carrier found! Could this really happen?!
~All AL always welcome~
1. I will be vacationing in Cancun in 25 days!
2. It's CD 4, and I'm already worried that DH won't be in town while I'm fertile this cycle.
3. Worse yet, DH has to have a repeat SA done, and with all the business trips he has planned in the next month, I have no clue when he's going to be able to get it done!
4. We officially "ran out" of work today for the summer, which means much more bumping is in store for me!
5. I have a zit on the side of my nose.
6. I have found out in the last week via FB that no fewer than 6 people are pg or have had a baby.
7. My ex-BFF is apparently telling people I don't hang out with her any more "just because she's pg"
8. One of our friend's is due to have her baby any day now, and I'm terrified of what kind of feelings that will stir up in me, especially with DH OOT.
9. I totally messed up my back this weekend, and I'm thinking sitting in a chair all day at work is certainly not helping.
10. During my 3 day weekend, I drank 3 beers, an entire bottle of wine, and 3 glasses of rum punch...my way of saying "screw you, AF" I suppose!
8 - ((hugs)) and GL
10 - well done!

1. It was supposed to be 80 degrees here today, but it's barely 65.
2. I am currently enjoying a tall, non-fat latte from Starbucks.
3. I am really looking forward to the wine tasting we are attending on Sunday.
4.Traffic was horrid on the commute to work this morning- hoping for better on the way home.
5. I am ready to throttle my BFFs husband for the crap he has been putting her through.
6. I am trying out a new stuffed pepper recipe for dinner
7. I miss the days when summer meant I got paid to swim in a lake and play Capture the Flag.
8. My favorite book is "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn".
9. I am totally behind on returning phone calls to some of my friends and feel really guilty about this.
10. I suspect one of these friends is pregnant and wants to tell me, which is why I haven't called her back yet.

it's ridonkulus.. if you only knew the whole story.. I'm like both of yall (S&M) are over 30.. wtf is wrong with yall and C is 22 but acts like he is about 15.. ::sigh:: as I said I give up.
I grew up with a Bull Mastiff who lived to be 19 (which is ridiculously long for such a big dog) and I loved her to no end, but you can't usually get those from a shelter. I'm thinking with just over an acre of land, we should be able to have two dogs, so I can rescue one and get a Bull Mastiff.
I grew up with two bull mastiffs...A boy names "Gator" and a girl named "Callie"...loved both of them to death...they were such sweet dogs...Hubby and I could not find one in our area so we settled for a weimaraner named "Bella"...
here is my 10 things Tuesday:
1) glad yesterday was a holiday..it means the work week will be short.
2) I am sadly looking forward to the new premier of Dance Moms next tuesday..I was not a dancer but Abby Lee Miller and her crazy show makes me chuckle
3) cooking tacos for supper tonight
4) Ready for my vacation...july can't get here fast enough
5) slightly disagreeing with my sister right now...and she doesn't know it..
6) I will be 30 in October and have been planning my own surprise party...hehe
7) I was mad when the UF Gators softball team did not make it to the college world series that starts thursday but grateful I can still cheer a for a few SEC teams like Bama, LSU, & Tennesse
8) leaving work in about 10 minutes...Yay for me
9) Had a crazy dream last night I was preggo and when I went to the dr. she told me I was crazy and that I was infact not...booo for that dream...
10) Really want to go shopping for summer dresses this weekend...
I tried to quote ncchnat and it did not work
1. I can't wait for DH to come home, he's been in Paris since Thursday for work.
2. I have to go to work tomorrow. It's a new job, so I should be excited. I'm just not feelin it.
3. We found a turtle last week and kept him. DS named him "Grassburger." DH bought turtle food for him, so I guess he's a keeper.
4. I don't know what to make for dinner.
5. I'm going to a Slumber Parties party on Friday night. I'm excited to get something new to spice it up in the bedroom!
6. My neighbor asked last night if we were thinking about more kids, and I was honest with her about my m/c. It felt good to just tell the truth, and not give her some crap like, "we're thinking about it" or "we're just letting it happen."
7. I just got a fondue warmer... maybe chocolate for dinner?
8. I'm having boudoir photos taken at the end of June for DH's birthday, but still have no motivation to diet/exercise. Photoshop, anyone??
9. I wish we had a bigger yard to get another dog. There are a litter of deaf Great Danes. The shelter is looking for a family with another dog to help train them. We have a Dane, but not nearly enough space for another one
10. All of my houseplants are dying. I truly think I have a black thumb.
I love this
1. I'm leaving to go on vacation tomorrow. Yay!
2. I'm a bit stressed about packing for vacation.
3. I was so tempted to take home the dog my in-laws are fostering because he is soooo adorable. Good thing my condo only lets us have 2 pets and I can't take on a third.
4. I think I'll branch out and paint my toenails lavender when I get a pedicure this evening.
5. I feel guilty that I haven't gone to the gym in a week and a half, and I doubt I'll go tomorrow before I go on vacay.
6. I worry that TTC is putting a damper in my sex life.
7. I didn't do anything fun the whole long weekend. Only spent time with in laws (three times) and cleaned the house.
8. I'm actually wearing high heels to work today. Lately I've been wearing ballet flats almost every single day to rebel against heels.
9. Pink is my favorite color. I'm like obsessed.
10. I may be able to get work to sneak in a trip for me to see my sister since I have a meeting that I could schedule near her!
Yes. Not like mining for gold, but ya just gotta do it sometimes.
1. Therapy is going great
2. I have a major headache
3. I have to help someone move tonight but don't want to
4. I'm caught between being super hopeful for this cycle and super scared
5. I had red Gatorade today
6. I get free pizza for dinner for helping people move
7. My dog is back home with us after he was at my parents for 3 weeks
8. DH, my dog, & I all took a nap together yesterday, then I slept for 12 hrs last night!!
9. My secret guilty pleasure TV show is Revenge
10. I can't wait for USA's summer shows to be back on!!!!!!!
OMG, right?! I was watching TV before bed last night and I was so mad/terrified that the trailer came on towards the end of my show right before I wanted to go to sleep!

4. My rings need to be cleaned.
5. My favorite kind of music is hip hop.

1. I'm still kinda lost about all the drama that happened over the weekend.
2. I don't mind being lost about it, though. I like being neutral. I like being Switzerland. It's fun.
3. My back is hurting now. Phooey.
4. I should be doing work right now. I haven't done an hour's worth of work since I got to work.
5. Just found out there's a high possibility they're going to close down my office. So me being laid-off come June 30th isn't a bad thing.
6. I really, really do not want to find another job.
7. Because when I'm pregnant again, I can go on disability for the rest of the year.
8. My mantra is 'not if but when...' I tend to apply that to all situations.
9. I really like FFF. Yes, I stole that from Petra. The last two words are 'for fun' and the first word rhymes with flucking.
10. Still getting out my Mama's Day cards. I sent out five last week. I'm so horrible.
I sorta, kinda hate you right now...but in a loving way, though.
I
chocolate croissants.

1. Part of me hopes I can find a home for the new puppy I found all by itself on our road last week, but part of me hopes I don't because I'm starting to fall in love with it.
2. I really need to fold up and put away the clothes.
3. I'm pissed that our deck collapsed yesterday but excited that we might finally suck it up and get the pool we've been discussing for forever.
4. I hope my Tigers make it to the CWS
5. I love Wendy's new spicy guacamole chicken sandwich.
6. I wish there was something good to watch on tv tonight.
7. I need to be studying but hate having to do that once I'm finally at home.
8. I also love Wendy's new(ish) fries (can you tell what I had for supper! LOL)
9. I watch too much trashy reality tv.
10. It's getting SO freaking hot down here which is seriously hampering my desire to run!

4. I'm so happy DH put the a/c in downstairs today it's finally getting warm enough to need it
5. I am having far too hard a time coming up with this list
6. I felt like bert today when I plucked my eyebrows... I nearly had a third one
7. One more week till DH's bartender classes are done... I'm excited for him to make me fancy drinks
8. I found out my insurance covers everything for infertility (including 3 IVF cycles).... while this could be great news.... I'm ticked because I'm trying to get a job elsewhere and now I might stay just for this
9. For the last half hour my bulldog has literally just been staring at the wall while sitting 6 inches away from it.... I wonder sometimes about her
10. It bugs me that I can't post on here from my phone

BFP #2 - 7/1/12 - Met my lucky charm Alexandra on 3-16-13!!!
Thank you
It feels surreal
1. I have 8 more days of school - only 5 more with my seniors!
2. DH is going to BBQ burgers for dinner - yummy!
3. I wear my TEVA sandals to work now almost every day. Since I stand so much as a teacher, my feet hurt - but not as much with the TEVAs!
4. My new TEVAs just arrived (DH brought them in when he came home - they were outside - funny that I had just typed #3!)!!!
5. DH has been obsessing over buying an Mini Cooper and just bought one. I told him I need bribery jewelry when in Hawaii in 2 weeks since we really did not need a new car! He said okay.
6. Even though I am an absentee voter, I still like to hand deliver it to the voting place on election day.
7. I am allergic to shellfish.
8. I hate cleaning and am delaying what needs to be done as far as cleaning up and storing stuff in my classroom for summer.
9. I enjoy photography and would really like to take a class!
10. Last semester I taught an all girls (38 of them) economics class and it was really a neat experience! I liked that better than my current co-ed classes.
BFP #2 - 7/1/12 - Met my lucky charm Alexandra on 3-16-13!!!
1. I miss my babies like crazy.
2. When I can't sleep, I pretend like they are here as newborns and fantasize about our family being whole. I like to fall asleep like that.
3. I watched the entire season 3 of the Vampire Diaries this weekend. I am saddened by the season finale.
4. I also watched ep 9 Game of Thrones. The drama on Vampire Diaries pales in comparison. These guys ate getting chopped in half!! Oh I love both shows!!
5. I made a new hair appt to fix what the other lady didn't. I feel better about the whole ordeal now.
6. I think I may re-activate my World of Warcraft account.
7. I am only on call for another 1 hour and 40 minutes. Then I get to sleep!!
8. I am planting a small memorial garden for my babies.
9. I could def be a recluse as long as I had an Internet connection and food.
10. I love warm weather.
