    Morning. Have my 1st cup of coffee, DD7 is still sleeping, I've logged into work and am feeling pretty good this morning.  I started a new med yesterday for my sciatica and so far so good.


    Working from home today, hanging with my girl and then happy hour with some other Mommies. Anything good on your agenda?

    Morning my love!!!! I'm so glad you are feeling better! I approve of your creative spelling of the word coffee in the title too- shows why we need a pot this morning!!!!


    We are going to stay on track with our new exercise routine :) 3 mile powerwalk in the morning, 1-2 mile stroll in the afternoon. Mainly I'm just trying to tire the shit outta this kid so she sleeeeeeeps.

    Oh, and I have to somehow find time to do my job... God I hate my stupid job.

    Today is my "errands day"  My list for today is a mile long, my DD was up until midnight fighting sleep and I had heartburn all night.  A run to Starbucks is in order for me today (I rarely go).  There are some things I CANNOT put off since it is a holiday weekend.. Then the kids leave me Monday for 6 whole days!  But my to-do list for then is 10 and 1/2 miles long too. 


    ~O) Ladies!

    Morning ladies! My ds5 was up at 7 thanks to my mil deciding there was something that she just "needed" out of his room. Ds18mos is still snoring as is dh. But thankfully, mil is here so I can get errands done, bills paid and go to my one full day of on site class while she and dh tackle the laundry and make a nice day for the kiddos... At the moment though? I'm sitting in the bathroom indulging in the message boards lol

    @Hoppitu My better half has told me to do in home daycare, there is no effin way I want to deal anyone elses screaming kids! LOL! I don't even like mine why in the hell would I want to watch someone elses!? I agree, since I found this sight I now find myself on here more than FB...As for what I do at home, well we own a little chunk of property and while the better half is working I manage my house and my whole property. Because I love to be outside I have also started managing my lazy ass neighbors yards, ha be lazy, it only makes me money! I too have 5 kids at home so I manage everything military style...Luckily they are all in school...I am actually dreading summer, thank God we have a pool!

    @hoppitu, I run a language program, but if you are a strong writer, there is an online writing company called Skyword that gives you $10 an article. You have to submit a writing sample but it's really easy money, and you generally review products or write about local restaurants etc.

    I don't normally get to work from home... I've been able to work from home this week since DD7 is out of school and it's been awesome.  It has made me think of looking for something else that will allow me to telecomute full-time.

    Just finishing up my coffee over here...stuck at work and I have NO motivation left in me, so it's not looking good for a productive day. 

    @Chocoholic--look at you!  Great job with all the exercise!

    I just started my coffee.  Threw the kids upstairs to play...now I am trying to find someone to pawn them off on so I can go take a quiz at school.  I don't want to go.  AND my older kids have an early out today and no school on Monday.

    The largest coffee in the world isn't big enough for me today. I can not wake up for the life of me!

    @KittyKat do you have brown sugar? That's what I use when I'm out of the normal stuff.

    @NoMoreMonkeys, @KittyKat--I LOVE hot chocolate mix in my coffee!  It's actually the only way I could start drinking coffee :)  Yummers.
  • BeerWenchBeerWench

    I'm going to stay away from hot chocolate in my coffee... It's bad enough I use Bailey's Creamer.  I've always drank my coffee black until Bailey's came out with creamer.


    @Sammie Thanks - it is a serious pain in the ass, leg and foot!! At times I'd like to take a hacksaw to my leg. It's noon, and so far so good.
