Hump Day high/low!

By indi Oct 2, 2013

I'm so glad (but also bummed) that it's already (but only) the middle of the week. Hahah! So let's share the best thing and worst thing about today or this week.

High: We are at 20 weeks today! Half way to meeting our LO! :-)
Low: I have a wicked headache today. Third one of my pregnancy, but the others were over the weekend where I could just sleep in my Batcave of a bedroom. Thankfully, my secretaries are very sweet and are holding all of my calls while I sit in my dark office to work. So at least that's a blessing.

How about you bees? Happy Wednesday!

High: for the week, our 2nd anniversary was yesterday. For today, I'm gonna see if I can go take a nap because I'm tired in a scary can't keep my eyes open kinda way.

Low: for the week, we thought we were going to SIL's birthday Sunday night, but walked into a brawl, no joke, it was bad. also Friday is the first anniversary of my nana's passing (on my brother's birthday). For today, I have a bad reaction from a caterpillar & it's super itchy & annoying.

High: I have the day off today (I work on weekends so today is my "sunday") and I'm planning on cooking and baking a few things.

Low: we recently made a cross-country move for my DH's job and I'm feeling a little homesick. I'm not happy to be working on weekends again because it's pretty lonely and I don't really like my new job. Sorry, I'm a Debbie Downer with my high and low this week, haha.

@MsLipGloss: hang in there, Mama.

High- LO is finally all better from a bad case of croup AND she's still sleeping so I enjoyed an extra long hot shower this morning. Now I'm having a rare cup of coffee while I wait for her to wake up

Low - my house needs to be cleaned but I'm just so dang exhausted and can't find the energy to get started.

@LovelyPlum: I'm sorry, being homesick is no fun I know it takes time to adjust but I think I'm just hitting that point, about a month and a half in, when the actual moving is done and you're just like, "ok, so we're here.... Now what?" I hope you feel better soon!

High:...it's a really pretty day out? And E only woke up once last night (well twice, but the first time we were still up). Oh, and we're still riding pretty high over the Pirates winning last night.

Low: E and I got flu shots yesterday and my arm hurts like whoa.

High: E and I went out for coffee with my friend and her baby today. We had a lovely time and both of our babies were cheerful (until right at the end, when E got a bit fussy because she had a wet nappy and it was nearly bottle time!). I call that a result!

Low: I met a really nasty man today and he almost made me cry. There isn't enough room for two cars to pass each other going each way in my street so cars have to pull aside to let each other pass. A car pulled aside for me and another two cars were waiting behind him. I drove past the first two, but the third (a little orange van of all things) suddenly pulled out from behind the second car and almost crashed into me. I managed slam on my breaks (with DD in the car) just in time, with a look of complete shock on my face. The guy then squeezed the van right up alongside me, wound down his window and snarled, aggressively, into my face "you can't have it all your own way, darlin', now f*ck off" and drove away. I was upset for about an hour - horrible man.

High: Going to the chiropractor today! My hips are killing me.

Low: My replacement calling me from work to ask stupid questions. The answers are in the packet I left her, and I'm on maternity leave, so it's not technically my problem. She has already said she would call tomorrow (my birthday), and I am just in shock and very mad.

@evansjamie: chiropractor, yay! Replacement calls, nay. Can you speak to her/your boss and ask her not to contact you while on leave? Happy early birthday, though!

@Cherrybee: omgoodness, I would be so mad. Hugs, darlin.

@LovelyPlum: I'm going to call HR and have them intervene for me. My boss is the one behind it. I am fine if it's a true emergency, but asking where something can be found on the server is not an emergency in my mind, especially when I've left clear instructions.

My high for the day is that DH has off tomorrow and Friday I think, so hopefully a lot of stuff will get done around the house....

My low though is that tomorrow it will be 2 weeks that our dog will have been wearing a cone (the dreaded cone of shame) he had his stitches taken out on Monday, but it still needs to heal a little bit more. I really can't wait until he's able to run and play again. I have one hyper doggy at home!!

@MrsSCB: Sorry about the new job blues, I hope it all evens out for you soon.
@LovelyPlum: Jerks! But yay, baby!! And thanks. My staff is awesome, so it has been a lot less awful than it could have been.
@Smurfette: Sorry about your loss.
@sunshineandsushi: That is super sucky about the promotion. I'd be royally peeved.
@sandy: Naps are more important than cleaning, any day
@lovehoneybee: Bah, I'm dreading my flu shot. Feel better soon! @MrsTiz: It's so nice when your work starts to taper a bit. Enjoy the breathing room! Wow you have long appointments for your hair, I would't blame you for disliking them. I am in and out in 10 minutes (truly), so I couldn't even imagine!
@blackbird: We can be cootie friends. Sorry you don't feel well.
@Cherrybee: Wow! Dude is an @$$. Sorry he ruined your fun morning.
@evansjamie: I think you lost your phone charger...your phone may be dead tomorrow. Happy early birthday!
@TheSwissWifeStyle: Big hugs! Pumpkin spice does help make things better.
@MrsBrewer: Hopefully you, puppy, and DH can all go spend a fun day together running the pup at the park. Our family dog HATED the cone, so I hear you on the sad puppy front.

High: DH has had 2 job interviews. He picked up the hutch (for an awesome price) I bought on Saturday.

Low: That meant he got home really late for 2 consecutive days. DD has been waking up early ... I'm just so drained.
