We have had some amazing weather lately. Really amazing. Yesterday it was 90°! Oh my goodness, it was glorious. Tomorrow is supposed to be cooler and rainy, of course, because I am not working.

On the plus side, I'm not working next Tuesday either because day care is closed. And then I'm off the following week for April Vacation. Woot woot!

I made some complaints about our Merry Maids cleaning the other weekend. Basically, they rushed like woah and because they left in 2 hours instead of the 4 I was told, that really raised the per-hour rate to an obscene amount... and they skipped a bunch of stuff. I wasn't going to complain, really, but I filled out their online survey to say I would not recommend to others, and of course they followed up. I don't know if it was the part where they didn't clean my tub, or nearly lost my wedding ring because she "flicked it away and was so busy I didn't really care where I flicked it," or perhaps the part where one of them in my kitchen kept saying it was filthy (which umm, if you know me you know it is not), probably because of the cat fur. I felt super awkward making the complaints but now the branch manager is giving me a replacement cleaning. On Tuesday, actually - so right in time for my mother and her husband to visit. SCORE.

Hopefully the weather is bad because I don't want to be trapped in the house all day Tuesday. Although I guess we can play in the yard while they are in the house. And the gas company is already coming on Tuesday to replace the gas meter.

Boy, that last paragraph makes my life look REALLY exciting, doesn't it?

Also, first prenatal appointment is on the 21st and my first trimester screening (which I didn't do with Punk) is on the 22nd. Fingers crossed. I always get so nervous.

I finally got a moment to wash all of the pots and pans. I can't even tell you how long some of them have been sitting there; it's too embarrassing. (They get rinsed out, though, so it wasn't nasty... just cluttered.) Two cookie sheets, one baking dish, three sauce pans, one cutting board, one crock pot, one corning ware, one saute pan, two frying pans, one big stock pot, three lids, a wine glass (that doesn't fit in the dishwasher) and a big carving knife.

Maybe I will be able to sleep tonight!

Maybe a glass of wine and some vampire trash will help with that.

I love opening windows! I don't care if we had the heat on for a little bit this morning, I am opening windows. The cats don't know what to do with all of this delicious windowsill. Fin has discovered the wonders of the window. Perhaps he will now forgive me for cutting his claws this morning. I got tired of him scratching the screens.

I dusted the TV stand and all of the components. I really don't think it's been done since we moved here 2 years ago. (Gross.) I really should do the two shelving units, too, but I'm running out of motivation and just want to play outside. :) Maybe some geocaches are calling me or something.

I called my grandparents to chat (since we haven't seen them in a couple of weeks). I told my Grandma that I would come down on Saturday afternoon and help her with Easter preparations. She saw something in a magazine about making penguins out of hard boiled eggs, black olives, and carrots. I'm not really sure if we can pull it off, but I thought she would appreciate the help. My grandfather asked me, "What's new?" on the phone and I said, "Not much," which is a bold faced lie but I want to tell them about our TTC stuff in person on Saturday. They don't hear so well on the phone and that would just be a train wreck. So, we can talk about egg penguins and babies! (And then I can run away to pick up [livejournal.com profile] grrlpower from the airport.)

My weather widget says that it is only 44° outside. I refuse to believe this. It looks too gorgeous. Say it isn't so!

Cut for TMI )
