I'm going to pre-make 4 iced lattes for tomorrow am. Does that sound crazy?
Never mind, I don't care. Something hilarious happened at work today. There is this lady in the department next to mine who got caught talking shit about her co-workers over google chat. Like how do you not know how to use g chat? She literally sent it to everyone in her department.
) She's kind of an asshole so I couldn't even feel sorry for her.
My crazy LO has been up since 8:30 and no nap today :-? :-/ He JUST fell asleep at midnight like Cinder-freakin-rella and sleeping beauty all in one tale! Night night LO Night night J13
Today will be a work from starbucks day for me. I'm gonna head out for a run soon, then get myself and lo ready, take her to dc and head over to starbucks. I think of you all when I see all their pumpkin stuff but yuck!
Oh and trader joes had samples of pumpkin ice cream the other day. I tried it, it was ok.
My coffee is brewing and kids are all still sleeping. This is my quiet morning time and I love it!! I get to Bump, prep for the day, watch the morning news, all by myself!
I found out that the So You Think You Can Dance tour is coming to my city and bought tickets last night as a Christmas present to myself. Does anyone else love that show? I've been obsessed and they have never come to my city before. I'm so freaking excited!!! Best. Show. EVER!
Booo to all the ladies feeling sick or with sick LOs. Hope this Tuesday is awesome!
@Audrey1787 Alex got sick from our trial run at daycare last week. I knee it was only a matter of time. Especially since the other new girl at work (Did I tell you guys they hired a second girl pt temp?) has also been coughing and sick. She says she is on day 11 and is no longer contagious but... :-SS The best part is she is a waitress and has been working the whole time she has been sick!
Oh ya. If she is sneezing, coughing and constantly wiping her nose than she probably shouldn't be around alll those people. But she went to school for nursing so she "feels" she isn't contagious anymore. /:) But she did say yesterday that she will probably have to go to the dr if it doesn't go away. #-o
Someone bought the wrong K Cups of coffee so for a bit I'm going to be on a surgar high with all the extra shit I need to put in this coffee to cut the strong...
We went for a post hospital check up yesterday for Noodles and her pedi said that what she thinks happened was Noodles had bronchitis that lead to a secondary infection that turned in to pneumonia. This was her one free pass any more we will need to look into things like her having asthma.
So happy to know that they know what happened! Fingers crossed it's not asthma.
Happy Fall everyone! Coffee to all the tired mommas, and hugs to all the mommas/babies who need them. It was 50F outside this morning (at 5am). Sweater weather!
I am drinking coffee and bumping while Mer watches MMCH. When Mickey asked a Y/N question, Mer responded "yeah!" and clapped. Someone is very proud of herself!
@lancomechica, you stepped in poop! Oh no! I missed the Spam thread yesterday, but that sounds like no bueno.
Today is the one day this week I am working downtown. Tomorrow we get our new sofas delivered to the house! We found side tables we like for the couch and are working through options for the love seat. I might finally have furniture to fill my house! Now to get stuff on the walls....
Tom-Baby dictated how I made his breakfast this morning. He ended up with a handful of Cheese Nips between 2 slices of white bread. A Cheese Nip sandwich.
~O) to all the mamas.
You know I truly wasn't a coffee drinker pre baby. Now I really, really am.
While on maternity leave, not so much. Now, back at work, with baby? Oh yes. And I HATE coffee. But that feeling of actually registering what your colleagues are telling you? Priceless. I'll even choke down coffee for that.
@martyn17 I wasn't much of a coffee drinker before LO, either.
We went for an awesome walk this morning. I put two pairs of pants, two shirts, hat, mittens and sneakers on Haddy. Overkill? I didn't put the mittens on until half way through the walk when I realized his hands were pretty cold. I can't believe he kept the hat and mittens on, yay!
I think we'll try to go on another walk to the park this afternoon before the big kids get there.
@econmama I hate when that happens after a workout. I feel like once I finally get food I pig out and eat way more than I would have if I had just planned accordingly.
I'm not normally into homeopathic remedies, but last cold season I was turned on to elderberry and I really think it has helped. Mamas who are getting sick/ fighting illness you might consider giving it a try. For example, last week I felt a cold coming on (both kids had colds) and I started taking elderberry like crazy and drank an obscene amount of water for days. I still ended up with a cold, but it was the mildest cold I'd had in years. It comes in syrup form or capsule. Worth a shot, IMO.

We're on a delivery system for coffee every 3 months. It's nice because I don't have to remember to buy it and it's way cheaper than buying it from the cafe down the street. It's the same coffee but without the mark up. Love it I use K Cups, but my SO will only drink Espresso Verdi so the 5lbs lasts us for 3 months and only costs $42.95 and that includes shipping and handling charges.
If anyone is interested, the company is CoffeeAM. They will send you the bean whole or grind it for whatever style coffee maker you have.
The local place agreed to do weekly deliveries for a month, for an amazing price. They also added salads and wrap sandwiches. So grateful! I love local establishments
Just made myself a toasted sandwich with home grown lettuce and tomato, cheese and cracked pepper turkey. I'm now going to sit at my desk and eat it with BOTH hands, while I bump. It's the little things in life that matter

Me, too. It's the carrier monkeys at school.
And I'm waiting for my period to start so I feel extra blah. If it doesn't show up by Friday I will be peeing on sticks.
Does anyone know anything about technical writing? I'm already super unhappy at my new teaching job. So disappointed.
