J had me up at 5:15am. 3rd day in a row. And B’s right eye is crusty again. Cool.
How’s your Tuesday?

Just got to work and realized the light tan pants I have on are see through. Cool. I know I’ve worn them before, so either I never noticed or I wore different shirts that hid my butt better. Luckily my underwear aren’t that noticeable but my cheeks...... 😣
Also, it’s not funny, but it is. A coworker tore his Achilles a couple weeks ago. I hear him at the guys desk on the other side of my cubicle all the time but never see him. Until this morning. He has this one leg scooter and goodness he is getting around on that thing. It has a basket on the front too. It’s just... a sight...

Cleaning today. Super fun. Actually I honestly don't mind it once I get going, it just seems daunting thinking about what needs to be done. DH is starting to get the baby fever pretty bad lol. Much as I'd like to jump on that, I know we have to wait a little lomger to make sure we are OK financially. We'll need a bigger vehicle and a bigger house, and I'd at least like to be CLOSE to that before we atart trying.

People use those around here all the time because this place is too damn big to use crutches. It's always funny to see. Some people definitely FLY on them.

At work today. I have a couple meetings then I'm leaving early for my nurse intake appointment. Someone scheduled a meeting for while I'm gone and I've asked him twice to reschedule but he hasn't. Pretty sure he's not going to get any support from my group so it'll just be a waste of time. Oh well.
We already have winter storm warnings for ice tomorrow morning. If it's really bad, I'll probably stay home again. Ice is too scary.

Between our annual cape cod trip, hurricane season, and not having a babysitter we had to post pone it. Ideally I’d like to go this March/April but I’m not comfortable enough to wear a bathing suit. It’s a bummer but it’s something to look forward too!

We just went to dinner with him and he was scooting around. He’s also like 6’5” and 300 lbs so it was a sight.

I’m not going to lie, I wish I had one of those when I ruptured my Achilles. It was offered to me and I turned it down. It’s so much easier than crutches. I can’t tell you how many times I fell waking into a building when it was raining outside and the floor was tile.

J is home with me today as he had a fever overnight. Otherwise just a little congestion. He's a total maniac - running around naked every chance he gets, jumping on the trampoline, climbing all over me, yayyyyyy!! It's nap time now but I have a meeting at 3pm and I have no idea how I'm going to pull it off with him like this.

Let me tell you how difficult it is to get off the floor on one leg with your purse and crutches.

Sorry for the sick kids today tgrimes and starbuckdanib do you have a timeline for when you hunk you’ll be in a better financial state? I know it must be hard for you to be the responsible one when you really want another one too AFM, just working as usually today. I have a potluck for my manager tomorrow who is leaving our program so I have to make a dessert tonight. Trying to decide if I just want to do some cookies or really cop out and buy something on my way in.

Are we talking desserts?
How about semi-homemade a la Sandra Lee. Pick up angel food cake r sponge cake, strawberries, whip cream and make a trifle.
☝🏼 I mean, that’s what sounds delicious to me right now.
Or a chocolate trifle.
Or brownies.

I made a brownie Oreo trifle for H's birthday and it was amazing. That sounds really good right now.

hangry DH's car will be paid off before the year is out. And I've only been back to work 1 year so far (and gone back part time instead of full time, so this year was a bit of a learning curve). So basically if we do this year right and DH keeps getting consistent work (this is pretty much what we need to see) then we *should* be able to look at trying somewhere around the end of the year. We wouldn't be in a new house yet, but as long as we know it CAN happen in the time frame we need then we'll be comfortable.

And I would always refill your wine so you wouldn’t have to get up because I’m a good friend like that.
