Some days I think spreadsheets have taken over my life.

I'm not sure if people are going to want to invite me to potlucks after this or not. This is the "dish" I decided to bring.

@TaylorOSoule A couple of weeks ago I heard someone on the radio mention her emotional support tater tots. I've been calling them that ever since lol

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

Yeah, it's an eat a bag of gummy Life Savers before 7:30 kind of morning.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

Oops. Meant to include their names. The little guy in the tuxedo is Neville and the shy girl is Mabel.

Just a little remodeling this morning. My pet family is set to grow later today. Stay tuned for pictures...

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

And here they are

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

Wait...now its rolling the right way again. I may actually make it to work today.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

I have a feeling it is not a good thing when the train you're waiting on starts rollong backwards.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

I'm patiently waiting for the moment I regret the decision not to go back to sleep when I woke up at 1:30 this morning. It was less than 2 hours before my alarm but still probably a bad decision on my part. Maybe today will be the day I start drinking caffeine.

@Trautguy I'm saving that 8 hour drive for when I make this https://t.co/GQrQY51KuB

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

Sorry, coworkers, but these followed me to work today. I'll just be over here eating as many fruits and vegetables as I can find.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

I swear I can take fifty pictures of the dogs and not once will they all be in focus or looking at the camera. Anyway ... I may have found them some Halloween costumes.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

It's 7 o'clock and I've had two cupcakes. I'm not sure what that says about how this week is going to go, but I'm thinking it's going to be interesting. It for sure means I'm probably going to have to spend the whole night in the pool working off calories.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

Oh the things you find for sale in Facebook Marketplace. Yesterday I saw a chamber pot for sale. Of course the first thing I did was text the person who's thinking about becoming my roommate and let her know I'm changing out the toilet in her bathroom.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

Apparently, I'm preparing for the short work week next week by thinking every day this week is the next - yesterday felt like Wednesday, today feels like Thursday. I guess at least I'm not thinking it's Friday every day. Those weeks are really depressing.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

It's the second day in a row I forgot my headphones at home. I think I'm just going to find a corner to sit and cry in. I need music!

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

My body is still pissed at the variety in my workout I threw at it this weekend. That's fine. I'll just keep accidentally hitting my elbow on things to make myself forget about my shins. It seemed to work a second ago.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

I swear, one of these times, I'm making the dogs carry me on one of our hikes. Also, if I ever decide to find a guy to spend time with, he's got to carry at least one of the dogs. That's very high on any list of qualities I have.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

Somewhere amid my bike riding with the dogs in a trailer behind me, jogging, hiking for a couple hours carrying the dogs and yoga this weekend my shins decided to disown me come this morning. I'm going to blame the yoga.

[Amber Staples @amberleaton]

I think I'm blaming starting out the morning with ice cream for breakfast for not being able to get warm today. At the same time, I don't regret that caramel pecan sundae goodness one bit.
