I really enjoy reading, it takes my mind off everything that is real. Unfortunately, I only run on the treadmill. Having a good book to take my mind off how much I hate running, or how much farther I have left to go, is key. But I prefer biographies, true crime, mysteries. I just stated a book about Jim Jones that definitely keeps my mind off that damn treadmill. I can never read while on the treadmill, epiptical, ect. I think I bounce around too much and can't focus on the page. I usually end up annoyed and motion sick! This is me. I watch tv or listen to music on the treadmill or elliptical. I’ll read on the rare occasion I ride the bike though. When I managed a gym right out of college our owners encouraged us to go out on the floor and workout if we were slow so members would see us. I always use to just grab a book and pedal away. I was also amazingly skinny... I wish I could go back to that job.

I put H to bed and now MH is putting M to bed. I’m trying not to drink the rest of the wine.... So far, I’m not succeeding. Do it. You deserve it

Oh, I forgot to tell you guys, dh got me flowers, a few bottles of raspberry hard cider that I love, flowers, scratchers and a gift card for a massage. Super sweet, and I thought I won $100 of one of the scratchers. So I convinced dh to go out and buy the mamaroo swing I wanted for C and told him I’d put my winnings towards it. Um.... I scratched the wrong thing and did not win $100. Whoops. But the swing is already setup.

Lilac Girls? If yes, then yes, I did. Agreed, it was really good--hard to put down. Darn it, yes. Lilac girls. I blame typing with a baby. Ha, I figured, no judgement here!

Dh got me flowers, a bottle of wine, more chocolate than one person should buy (whyyyyyy???) and an interesting wine puzzle/game type thing which will be nice to have something different to do. We had a delicious dinner of steak, crab, risotto and asparagus. Too bad the kids were not delightful and it was hard to enjoy. Now they are in bed and we are watching shameless and like tgrimes I am trying not to drink all the wine.... but it’s so good.

xolastunicornxo Lol!! That worked out well! We don’t usually do much for VDay so MH and I each bought ourselves something we’ve been wanting for a while. He booked a fishing trip and I bought a Groupon for laser hair removal! I go in 2 weeks for the first session and am super excited! Probably shouldn’t have spent the $$ since I’m not back to work yet but....well, we both suck at not spending.

I just looked at my calendar and realized I have my appointment to go get the tissue around the abnormal mole they found in November removed tomorrow... should I be nervous?

They should numb the area so you won't feel it. Hopefully the Dr can give you some feedback based off what they see during the removal and you get results back quickly!

MH just announced that he's going to a bachelor party in Vegas next month, so I guess that's his gift to himself. I feel like I can justify a peleton bike since Lord knows he will be spending more than that in vegas..I won't though, but I still very much want one.

That’s what I had done last week. Mine was a punch biopsy, so I have 3 stitches. It really wasn’t too painful (the numbing shots suck) and the healing has been uneventful.

Dh is enjoying that bottle of gin I got him. He’s lucky he’s a somewhat endearing and goofy drunk

Let's just forget that I've never actually been on an exercise bike nor participated in a spin class. #delusional

So our Valentine's day was pretty romantic...nothing like scooping poop out of the bathtub and having to bleach the tub and sanitize the kids and toys to really rekindle those special feelings for one another

Sorry for the post and run cagoldi. I also hope my questions didn’t sound weird. I was just curious. I read the article and it’s interesting. I have another question. What does Dude’s birth certificate have? Again just curious. Mine has black, but at some point in my life, I felt weird about just checking black, so I check more than one. I do find it intriguing that if you check more than one, most documents it only want to justify if you’re Hispanic or not.

So Coworker S's husband brought her flowers, custom donuts, and lunch at work since he was working last night. Then as he was leaving and she had stepped out he told us there was more waiting for her at home. All 3 guys who were in the office were like "we failed this year". I thought it was sweet but I know C would never do that and I'm okay with that. I knew who i married and don't expect that.

If you don't mind me asking, what area are you having done? Either my face or underarms...not sure yet. Ultimately I want both done, plus bikini line. But $$$. I just bought a “small area”. But figured if I like it and it goes well then this summer when I have more money I will do the rest.
