Today is Fathers Day for us.  We're doing pizza, cake, and ice cream.  I bought DH a minion cake that says Happy Father's Day Gru! 

The library is opening it's civil war exhibit today too!

That'll be nice.

I love civil war Era displays and such.

Yep. We plan on taking him to Sonic for a half price drink. We're going to make a short day of it and then head home for the Father's day party. The kids got DH three really nice plaid button down shirts from Haggar, two pairs of khaki's from Haggar, and a bunch of odds and ends. I think he'll like it. I picked out a picture frame that says Princess in bling for his dog, a sign that says A spoiled rotten dog lives here, a wall decoration that says I love my dog, a coffee cup that says I love you a latte, and a magnet that says Be the person your dog thinks you are. There may be a few other things in there too.

I'm going to go to work today and NOT punch my colleague. She's incompetent and intent on blaming everyone else for it and yesterday was a nice long rant that made on of my other colleagues cry. I told her to shut it. I'll likely have to deal with that today. You do NOT make a member of my team cry because you are incompetent. I will go all mother-bear on your a$$!

And to top it off I forgot to take my allergy pill yesterday, so now I'm having a huge reaction to something in the air and I have to wait for today's pill to kick in rather than just keeping high levels of antihistimines in my system.

I would punch her too.

NJN - I told you! Just another boring day here and you and your fam are celebrating Father's Day and having a blast! Enjoy your fun!

It's my Friday today too. I have a bit of work to finish, then help DD finish packing and then tomorrow it's off to the airport with her for 16 days in Sweden/Denmark.

Not really, but I am jealous about your lake time! This weekend is supposed to be camping attempt 2 and it has been raining off and on since yesterday! Hopefully we don't get rained/flooded out again!

Well, G is gone almost the entire rest of the summer (on weekends) so this is my last hurrah for a little while.  Probably until September...:(

Just got a phone call. I have a third interview scheduled for the job I want. Let's hope this one is the offer and not just another round of questions. Regardless, I will be prepared and smile and such.

It's a job at a natural foods co-op - it's so me it isn't even funny.

Good luck, MM! Hope you get the job!
O4, I KNOW you will have fun at the lake. Wish I could join you!
NJN, sounds like a nice day planned.
Tig, we can all go off on the idiot if that would help. Sorry you have to deal with a nincompoop.
Good luck Demonia, I hope the camping weekend works out for your family. Sounds like fun!
Lexxy and flan, I MAY be around tomorrow, not going to promise. This whole week has been....unexpected...enough said.
Hello Trudy, SB, Lily and IKWTDS!!
I survived Wednesday...barely.

Waiting on DH to get off work for the morning. I love how flexible his new position is.

DS helped me finish off my cereal after eating a big bowl of yogurt. By helped, I mean climbed into my lap and gave my cereal a pointed look. I don't mind sharing with my cute little fellow.

It's cloudy out. Hopefully it will rain. I love monsoon but the humidity is killer.

 Back off!! Lol

The best part is, it's in operations so my schedule is Mon-Fri 8-5. Whaaaaat? Perfect! Their sales are increasing so rapidly they are expanding in the coming year. They even have farm tours of local farms where they get their produce and meat!

I have a raging headache.

The roofers, who arrived 2 hours late, are pounding and POUNDING on the roof, taking off the old damaged shingles. I was prepared for noise, but not THIS much! And DH is gone for most of the day, so I have to stay home and hold the fort.

When they're gone at the end of the day, I think I'll probably have a liquid dinner!

Today was a work day. I left early for two reasons. One is that Bossman needed me to do a project on my day off that took about 2 hours. Two, I have hives on my thighs. No reason why. We did not change anything that would be a trigger.

Now to finish up one project for school before DH gets home. Tonight, we need to go renew the Sam's membership with the Groupon offer so I can do some intense shopping tomorrow. Dinner will be somewhere near Sam's, possibly Cheeburger, Cheeburger or a good mexican restaurant. Or maybe even a new one.

I'm kidding! We didn't look through all the pages but there are a lot of letters from men to their wives and women to their husbands during to war. The women talk about how drastically their lives have changed since the men went off to war. They are now running plantations on their own. Something women didn't do before.
