Tired Working Mom

The Good:

• Quiet lunch times to read my newspaper and book in the sunshine.
• Being at work on time so far this week with an easy commute.
• Baby H almost crawling and just wanting to move
• Baby hugs
• Laughing with my daugther.
• My husband's weight loss

The Bad:

• Layoffs at my husband's work
• My skin acting up and getting itchy.
• Nothing to watch on TV right now.
• Dealing with family issues.
• Trying to sell our house.
• Not having enough time to do things I really want to.

My Loves:

My son's big brown eyes. He melts my heart every time.

My daughter's laugh and constant hugs.

The thought of no work all next week.

Cute pictures of my son at daycare, he looks so happy.

Great ideas for my daughter's Easter basket.

Knowing we have a tax refund coming.

My Loathes:

The cold, wet. gray weather we have right now. It makes it super hard to want to get out of bed in the mornings.

Waking up numerous times in the night for son, husband, and other random noises.

Not having enough time for me.

No books to read at the moment.

Aggressive drivers who make my commute dangerous.

The stinky perfume lady I work with. UGH!

Loves:

Baby H looking incredibly cute in his St Paddy's day shirt this morning.  I snapped a couple pictures as I am sure when I pick him up later today he will be in different clothes. I will post later hopefully.

Clothes feeling loose on me.

A great chat with a good friend.

Coffee machine working again at work.

Finding the hand creme I love and buying it yesterday. Burt's Bee's rocks!!

How good my hair went today..good hair day :-)

Loathes:

Annoying coworkers who are just plain rude for no reason.  Get over yourself.

Having no money to spend.

My fatigue.

Losing Vox friends to other blog sites although I am debating it also myself.

What I am loving today:

No snow on my commute in to work.

Taking an actual lunch time today to sit quietly and read my newspaper.

Watching my cute son bounce in the jumper at daycare.

House prices coming down-more in our price range to choose from.

An email from a good friend.

My spring break week off being approved by my boss.

What I am loathing today:

Husband going to play racket ball tonight -two nights in a row. Blah.

My commute being such a time suck.

Being hungry but not having money to buy a snack at work.

Dry hands due to the hand soap here at work.

My to do list never getting smaller.

Money being so tight.

Love:

Winning the Oscar pool by sheer luck. I have not seen any of the movies and just picked by the seat of my pants.  Whoo-hoo!

My husband.  He really listens to me and supports me 100%. He is such a wonderful friend.

Coffee with creamer...more coffee with creamer.:-)

Hot showers

Loathe:

Shots that make my baby feel sick and get a fever.

Baby H's sleep schedule messed up hence him waking up during the night for the last two days.

Relationships that no matter how hard I try never work.

Losing my pumping room at work. Nothing like being a nomad to find a spot and praying to God no one walks in on me.

Commuting so much.

A celebration lunch for my favorite coworker friend who got married last week.

Pink flowers on my desk.

Mean people.

Loathes:

Never seeming to get it right on one of my work tasks.

Dealing with coworkers who are rude and overbearing.

Losing a piece of my breast pump that so far I cannot find making it very difficult today.

Loves:

Clean fresh sheets on my bed.

Seeing my friend's cats on my lunch break. 

My son's warm little head laying on my shoulder.

Finally remembering to bring in my daughter's current school picture to replace in my frame at work.

How wonderful and cute my two kids are. 

Hearing my son laugh at his Daddy or big sister.

The thought of a four day weekend coming up this month.

A good friend getting married in Vegas.

Just being able to go home after work today with no stops.

Waking my son up in the morning to see his cute eyes and smile.

Reading a good book.

Tires - why do they need to wear out?

My commute. I want to live close to work

My list of things to do never seeming to get any shorter.

Dry hands

Women who wear way too much perfume so that it lingers long after they are gone.

Not seeing friends much.

Sunday nights - who wants to start the work week?

Loves:

1. A three day work week. Today is hump day. Very much longing for the four day weekend.

3.  Hearing the news my sister may have a new job already lined up. 

4.  The song my husband sent to me at work today.

5. Starburst.

6. Finding some time to read books again in my day.

Loathes:

1. Baby H's daycare parking lot. Too small, long walk to door, and hard to get out of.

2.  Wanting to go out to eat so badly but just plain not being able to afford to right now.

3.  The thought of having to work in my old group the month of December.

4.  Our dishwasher breaking and having to hand wash our dishes till the replacement part comes.

That my husband can work from home on day's there is no school so we do not have to pay for an extra day of daycare for M.

Waking up and thinking how flat my tummy feels.

Getting new people placing Avon orders with me.

Having my husband make me laugh when he calls.

The cost of gas going down. I filled up today for just over $25 bucks!!  I did a double take when I saw that at the pump.

Loathes:

The thought of Christmas coming up soon and not knowing where the money is going to come for it.

Feeling gassy at work.

Getting out of my warm bed in the morning and drinking crappy coffee today.

People who send out emails with all their news and when you reply you never hear back from them till the next huge email.

Not being able to make it through one show at night with my husband as I am just too tired.
