Topic: Totally Tuesday
Well, we made it through yet another Monday!   I worked 11.5 hrs yesterday so didn't get much else done.   I did get to the Y for a workout though.   We're having issues with Sadie crying and crying while we workout and she stays in the childcare.   Hopefully she works through that soon.  Pretty heartbreaking to leave her like that.   She hasn't been in any kind of daycare since she was a year old though.  Not much on the agenda here today just working and hopefully getting a walk in tonight.   If the weather is icky I'll head to the Y.  Parenthood is on tonight but I have a hard time staying awake until 10pm to watch the full show.   I jus****ched last week's episode online last night.   I might just resort to watching them that way at a time other than my bedtime.   Getting up at 4 am just doesn't make for a good tv watcher for me LOL.

Anybody doing anything fun or exciting today?

Morning!  We had a great weekend but I won't go into details or you'll be here reading all day.   Spent the whole time with my family.   We got home aroune 7:30 last night.   It was a lot of fun.  Got my hair cut, colored and highlighted and am not really liking it.   Sadie did 3 different egg hunts and loved it all.  Went to church and just realaxed with the family.   Oh yeah and she got her first sunburn of the season on her cheeks.

Hope Monday goes quickly!

Morning ladies!  How was your weekend & Easter?  Mine was pretty great.  Got off work early Friday, hit TJ Maxx for some gifts I needed, came home and headed to Lowes with the hubby, then took a nap.  Pretty quiet and lazy evening.  Saturday I got up early, did a few loads of laundry then headed to my dad's for the day.  What fun playing with my niece and my brother's girlfriends son and spending time with my dad and stepmom.  Yesterday hubby and I got up and mowed the lawn, then we headed over to my sister in laws for visiting and dinner.  Came home and did some more stuff around the house before hitting the bed early.  I am home today, going to do a little bit of teleworking and a lot of house chores including finishing the taxes.  Ugh.  I best go get busy.  Have a great one!!

Good Morning ladies!  How are you today?  I am so so.  Did sleep pretty well last night but I have a bit of personal stress going on in like every aspect of my life and I really need to sit and figure out how to let go of some of it.  A bit easier said than done I think.  Perhaps some time out in the beautiful weather this weekend will help and some time to myself.  Did get some good news yesterday, the governor decided to give us a couple hours of appreciation leave so I get off at 3 today and get to start my weekend early!  Woohoo.  Have some stuff planned this weekend but nothing major.  Will be spending tomorrow at my dad's for Easter, have to bake a pie, hubby and I plan to hit a sunrise service on Sunday and will go to his sisters in the afternoon for dinner, will be bringing potato salad.  Seems like we will have beautiful weather and some great family time planned.  I really need to get some cleaning and laundry done at home and plan to try and take some time to myself.  Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!  Happy Easter/Passover!

So glad you enjoyed your day!  Hope the weekend is just as fabulous for you.  Really glad Sadie is feeling better this week.

Jaime, sounds like you are healing slowly but surely.  So how is Hunter doing?

So we had kind of a crazy busy night and by the time I hit the bed I was not feeling well.  Then at midnight I woke up to the phone ringing, it was the oldest home from her date & locked out of the house.  Was still not feeling great when I woke up this a.m. but had to come in to work, ended up with a cold shower, we have been having issues with the ho****er heater, started my period on the way to work, ugh, I just want to go back home, crawl in the bed and forget this day happened.  Oh well, perhaps if I whine a bit to the hubby he will pamper me a bit.  I am not really a prankster so I don't really expect any April fools jokes at home today, we shall see though.  Hope you all have a great day!

Wow it was so nice to have the whole day off yesterday!   Sadie let me sleep in...I got up at 9:30 and she woke up at 10.   Gotta love some good sleep.   We headed out to run a few errands and then had lunch out together.   She was happy to have her cheeseburger with lots of mushrooms on it.  LOL I think all she ate were the mushrooms.   We did some shopping...finished up Easter stuff.  We played outside stopped for an ice cream cone for her.   She had dance class....only 4 wks to the recital ahhhhhh.   We then came home and played in the yard some more.   We picked my oldest up and took her to do some shopping....then came home and cleaned.   We had a blast spending time together. 

Today I'm getting her up by 9 or so.   We're heading to the Y to work out at 10.  She'll play in the childcare of course.  We're going to go have lunch with her daddy at work.  She's wearing her Easter dress, hat, shoes, and gloves.   All the people there just love to see her all dressed up.   She has a basket full of Easter cards to hand out too.  After that it's home to get bags packed to head out of town tomorrow morning.   We plan on leaving around 8am.   A few stops along the way....nice lunch out...and a 2pm appt to get my hair cut and dyed with my sister.  I'm very excited about this weekend.  It's been quite some time since I've been there to visit my family.   I probably won't be posting tomorrow.

So, it's April fool's day!   Any pranks in your household??   I slathered the bathroom doorknob with crisco...waiting on my son to get up for that one.   I replaced all the toothpaste in the medicine cabinet with frosting.   Darn hubby didn't fall for it.   He squeezed some out and realized what day it was and thought nope not gonna do it.   LOL  He knows me all too well.   I didn't have a lot of time this yr so didn't think up anything real good.  Was wishing I knew someone pregnant that I could get to pee on a stick for me to give to him LOL.  

Well, I should get going with my day.   I hope you all have a fabulous weekend and a very Happy Easter!

Diong well here.  The sun has been shining& snow has been slowly melting.  Spring has sprung!!  No flowers to speak of yet, they are a ways off for that, 5-6 weeks maybe we will see some.
Physical therapy is going well, slow, but well.  The last 2 visits I have had flare-ups, so I have not done any weight lifting.  Maybe today?
Dr appointment is in a week, so, we shall see what he says about me going back to my position at work.


Have a GREAT DAY!!!

Topic: Happy Hump Day!!
So I was going to only work half a day today and get out and enjoy the weather a bit and take the younges to her soccer camp, needless to say she woke up sick (allergies) and didn't go to camp so now I have no excuse to take off.  Perhaps Friday should be a mental health day.

Had a quiet evening last night other than the dog who was a pain.  Even taking him on his walk did not help much.  Hopefully he will be better tonight.  Hoping to have a nice dinner and some relax time, perhaps get some of my "weekend" chores done so I can enjoy the holiday.

Hope you are all doing well & have a great day!!!

I am jealous Michelle!!!! Wish I had soem time off.  Sounds like your experiences at the Y and the plans you have for the weekend with your family are making your week grand.  I am so glad.  I enjoyed a lazy quiet evening to myself last night.  Even made it in to bed a bit early.  No exercise but I think I needed the relaxation.  No plans for tonight other than watching AI.  We are supposed to have 70's - 80's here for the next few days so that will be enjoyable.  Perhaps I should take Friday afternoon off....

Topic: WooHoo it's my Friday

Sorry just had to say that!!   I'm so darn excited to be having some time off.   And to top that off it's supposed to be almost 70 here the next few days.   Perfect days to have off.   If there's any wind I think Sadie and I will go fly a kite.   If not we'll just go play at the park or throw rocks in the lake who knows.   I need to get things ready to leave on Friday too but that'll get done. 

We had a pretty good day yesterday.  Worked and then went to the Y got a workout in.   I did not win mother of the year award though.   I dropped Sadie off at the daycare there without a snack and she was not happy when the other kids had one.  My son called as I was leaving there asking me to pick him up....he was literally 2 blocks from where I was.   I got all the way home and he called....woops I forgot him!!!  hahahahaha   Back in the van to go get him.   We're going to try going to the Y after supper next time because going before we didn't end up eating until about 7pm.   That was with just heating up left over chili too.  Of course nobody took anything out for supper tonight so I'll have to be creative I guess.  Sadie has school tonight as well. 

Well I better get on with my Friday!  Have a great day everyone!
