Halloween is a bad influence.. (=

Sheesh, I've been so tired lately. And I cannot take naps for the life of me...I'm home all day, and I try to lay down and go to sleep but it just doesn't happen. Then by the time hubs gets home I'm tried and crabby and just can't wait til bedtime, lol. Dang.. I still haven't went up and talked to my boss yet. I meant to yesterday, but it didn't happen. I thought I was working today, when I'm actually working tomorrow, and he usually works on Thursdays so I guess that'll be d-day. I'll tell him just to not schedule me past Thanksgiving. There is no way I could make it through the black friday shopping crowd, and we're having a second Thanksgiving with my family on Saturday, so I'll tell him he can put me on the schedule for the beginning of that week if he needs me, but then I'm done.

At least two of the new hires should be taking their tests today, and I told the trainer if they need to pick up shifts CALL ME for Saturday afternoon. She said there shouldn't be a problem covering it. I really hope so... it won't be the end of the world if I have to work, I just HATE working on the weekends.. especially during football season.

So the other girl up at work who's pregnant has her anatomy scan today and finds out what she's having. Everyone thinks she's having a girl, seriously...everyone. So I think she's having a boy, just so I can be different, lol. I actually had a dream last night that I was right.. which probably means she's having a girl. For the baby's sake I really hope she has a boy though, because she has some pretty crazy names picked out, and the boy name is slightly less crazy. Her boy name is Battle Brooks... which is different, and I think could be really cute once it grew on you. Her girl name is Glycerine May... I really hope she doesn't have a girl. Hahh. On the plus side, if she did, I'd finally get to buy some little girl clothes, so that would be fun. I guess we'll know by today or tomorrow.

I decided to weigh myself today.. lol. I know I said I would only weight myself at the dofctor now, but I couldn't help it, I wanted to know if I needed to be prepared for a scolding or not. I've only gained 3 lbs though, so I think I'm back on track (= I really need to start eating better though.. I've been junkin out a lot lately, stupid halloween, hah! I'm going to the grocery store today though.. I need to get one more bag of candy (to pass out, of course) but besides that I'm getting only healthy snacks! I think we have enough meals to last the rest of the week, but I don't have ANYthing to snack on... which is why I turn to the Halloween candy, lol. I buy fruit, but I always forget about it and it goes bad. I always buy grapes... I LOVE grapes, but still, I forget. I guess apples and oranges have better shelf life, maybe I should stick to those. I need some bananas too, I've been getting leg cramps like crazy. Maybe some yogurt, I like yogurt, but ti's always a teasing snack for me... I just want another cup or two. lol. Ohh I may get some chicken salad too. I've been craving that like crazy lately.. and it's probably a lot better for me than the speghettios I've been craving, hahh. I've figured out my trick is when I'm actually just grocery shopping, I need to go to United and not Walmart.. it has better produce and less distractions, lol.

Oh, and Tyler had been wanting a bridal pic for his office for a long time, so since I have that new digital scrapbooking website I'm making him a 16 x 20 gallery wrap... we actually got a deal on it with the package I signed up for, so I'm hoping to go ahead and order it. This isn't a great picture, because I had to take a pic of the computer screen because it won't let me just save it.

Nevermind the shady area around it, that's just where the wrap is going to be. I debated just doing a one big picture gallery wrap, but i was playing with it and i think this came out so much better (=
