Ohh look, it's my 2nd favourite Ryan!
It's Chinese Pot Puck day. I have a funny about that, I'll post in Private.
DH and C are gone to the gym. I'm chillin with H. Now that he's prettu much figured out crawling and can sit unassisted without risk of smashing his head on the floor, he really enjoys playing on the floor semi-independently. I sit with him, but he putters about grabbing different toys and inching his way around the room.
Also DH made pancakes for breakfast. Today is off to a good start! Except it hurt to put on my bra this morning, so I decided to go braless (which is a risk with my 32Gs but oh well).

Our department is having some stupid internal job fair type thing where everyone has tables set up. I was volunteered by my boss to help because apparently I have nothing else going on. I have a part running a demo but it needs my laptop to run so I'm stuck not being able to do anything for 2 hours. Someone send lots of coffee.

One of the guys leading this thing has way too much energy. And he just brought up the NYT article about all of Trump's lies and there's another dude here that very obviously voted for him. He isn't saying a word and keeps walking away. It's awkward AF. I'm just sitting here trying to hide in a plant.

I get so uncomfortable when people start talking politics without knowing the audience goldenlove. I was in the mall the other day and was just browsing in a store. 2 employees started talking loudly about some political stuff, and I actually agreed with what they were saying but all I could think was how awkward it would be if I didn't (or if another customer walked in who didn't agree) and I had to leave.

Morning! Semi glad to be back at work. It's always rough getting up and moving on Monday mornings, but once I'm here and working, the routine feels nice. Just need to get through the week and then it's a 5 day weekend for me! Only two working days after that and then I'm off for a week! I already have been making a list of everything I want to accomplish while I'm off! I can't wait to declutter and get a few projects around the house done!
Oh and it's the start of Summerfest this week! It's only the largest music festival in the world! It truly means it's summer!!

goldenlove All my T&Ps for what sounds like a shitty way to spend the day lol. Like danib I also hate when people talk politics in front of others they don't know, like I generally agree but I keep my shit to myself - what makes you think youropinion is the important one (for starters) and can we just all get along non-awkwardly ? tjanca22 JEALOUS!!!!! That sounds like a very awesome summer break! danib Pancakes are my top 3 favorite foods. Kudos to YH for doing that, very sweet! I'd say if he didn't get some then he's still looking for it. tgrimes Finally someone we can agree on. I'll take a helping of Ryan with my main dish of Ed. Edit tag and also bc I know the difference but you're and your

Just at work, it's pretty slow here right now so naturally I need to find things I can waste my time on all day. I know one of those things is thinking about what I'm going to do when they pull the plug on my remote working - SAH, look for a transfer to different position, find a new telecommuting job, find some other income producing gig - I don't know.
My family is in process of booking a few nights away the week of Jul 10-14.. I'm excited bc my sisters and mom will be there which means that in addition to H, I'll have lots of help and oppties for one on one time with H.

Good Morning!
I got a pretty good sunburn on my shoulders yesterday. I swear I reapplied the sunscreen several times but I was also sweating buckets all day. And also my pale skin hasn't seen the sun much in the last year. We got our garage nice and cleaned out yesterday. We need to buy another shelf unit and also organize the crap on the current shelves, but overall it's a million times better than before. I can now take more than two steps into the garage without tripping.
We also bought a table and chairs for the patio! I'm going to share some before and after pics because I'm so excited but it's not all the way done. I have a vision of a little sitting area (still convincing MH of this) and I really want to do put some light posts in planters and string lights from the house to the posts. I'm hoping to get that done sometime this summer, but we'll see.

Not much going on here today. I just made my July calendar and I sort of want to puke thinking about how busy our weekends are.
I also really need to get going (aka start) my maid of honor speech. Anyone good at those?
I also need to start thinking/planning B's 2nd birthday. I guess I better stop online shopping and get some of these things done.
Edit typo

kleigh Sounds like fun! Do you know where you're going? We just realized that next weekend is the 4th weekend and we usually go to my friend's grandmas lake house. We'll probably only do one overnight in case C doesn't do well but we completely have not prepared at all for his first lake trip. That looks great jubilantsquirrel! I'm currently sitting in the bathroom just so I can get some quiet for a few minutes. I will be wrapping up and going back to my desk soon. There was one dude that seemed interested in our group.. maybe he can replace me lol.

There was one dude that seemed interested in our group.. maybe he can replace me lol. Lake George, Ny. It's a little kitschy but it's one of those things that my family has been going for years and years before my grandparents passed. I wanted to find a better alternative for us but everything seems to be booked since it's so close to the actual dates. I'm more of a beach and/or city gal but my mom and sisters still enjoy the old-timey feel, the shops, mini golf, all that. Is the lake house close enough to your moms that they can take C for another night while you and H stay an extra night at the lake house without C?

I'm horribly exhausted today. Saturday night I stayed up til 1 a.m. drinking wine with DH and his sister, and then D decided to wake up for the day at 4:56 a.m. Then last night she woke up screaming at 11:45 p.m. (like less than an hour after I'd fallen asleep). H went in to calm her and it worked for like 20 minutes before she woke again. So prior to 1:15 a.m. I basically had two power naps. I'm dragging today, bigtime. Plus I feel a cold coming on and I could really have used the sleep. So much coffee. So. much.

This doc review project at work has been pending for over a month now. I was on trial so my managing partner had asked another associate to work on the docs but she really didn't do much (like, seriously next to nothing) so I'm sitting here with about 8000 documents that I still need to review and he wants it done today. So that's fun.
It was kind of funny though because the managing partner is a super-sweet guy, but he's kind of frustrated and also concerned that if we are any later with this doc production that we could get hit with sanctions since it's a federal court case. So earlier he was half-smiling/laughing while asking "Can someone please tell me what the fuck is going on in this case?!" And then afterwards sent me an email apologizing.
I lol'd because he was so far from being out of line by asking that, and he wasn't even mean about it. If I ever have my own firm I'm pretty sure my associates will be afraid of me. I'm not mean but I don't do well with people who say they're going to get something done and don't do it. Well, so maybe they wouldn't be afraid of me; it'd be much more like a parent that says, "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed" lol

kleigh No it's about an hour and a half away so wouldn't be worth it to drive back and forth. We're fine with one night. We'll probably go early in the day and leave in the evening the next day, so it'll be almost two days.

Between kleigh's family vacation, jubilantsquirrel's new patio, and waitwhat and goldenlove's upcoming weddings; it completely feels like summer!! I'm excited that the splash pad at the park in my backyard is about to open!! We tend to spend a lot of time there in the summer.

Another round of colds over here. Babies have been sleeping poorly, and we are still working like crazy to paint, pack up anything we don't need so we can stage, etc.
I'm le tired.
My birthday was yesterday! We took time to have lunch with my family but otherwise we were working. We were supposed to go to the beach for a long weekend but MH can't get away from work. W is still gonna go and the rest of us are going to stay home and keep working, I guess. Later in the summer we will take a long weekend. I am less upset than MH because travel is not super relaxing right meow with all these kids and I do not enjoy bf-ing on the beach.
