I came home to find that my dog crapped in his kennel  (

UGH!!! I knew it would happen when he refused to finish before I had to rush out the door for an unexpected doctors appointment for my DD.

Booooo. My last roommate before I got married had a dog that crapped EVERYWHERE. I had to clean up 3-5 piles of it every morning (because if I didn't, neither did my roommate and I could not handle that) and if we kenneled her it was even worse!!! I hated that freaking dog.....

DH went in for a physical today for the first time in a LONG time. Of course they want to run all kinds of tests. Now I'm nervous as hell.

Just took my pup out for her afternoon poo. She was in the squatting position FOREVER so I decided to take a peak (usually I try not to look at her - I give her some privacy). I have long hair and I think she ingested it somehow. Anyways, it wouldn't completely come out because there was a hair attached to her butt so it was just hanging. I almost peed myself laughing as I had to use the poo bag to pull it out for her. Poor thing, but I couldn't help but laugh. What an unfortunate situation and how uncomfortable!

She did the butt scoot thing for a little after and is a-okay now.

Sorry for my fart and poop posts. I'm just bracing myself before becoming a momma. 

Off to my dr appt!

@aviola329 my Ob is always running behind too! Last appt she was over an hour behind, but she did apologize and explained that she had to send several people to the hospital that morning. It was a bit annoying since I only took an hour leave from work and ended up needing much more, but I really like her, and I know she is a super attentive doctor, so I just deal with it, but the waiting definitely sucks! Hopefully next time your wait will be shorter! My cousin always requests the first appt of the day for that reason!

I just realized that next month is January. Labor buddiesss! Please tell me I am not the only loser whose mental calendar includes our labor buddy assignment month. X_X

Aaand it's nap time. 90 minutes and then it is clean clean clean. And check all the Christmas tree lights (ugh). Excited to be putting the tree back up though. I left it up until February last year because it is the prettiest living room night light ever.

Nope- I was thinking it too! Mostly cuz in helping to organize it.

These appointments use to be exciting but now they're boring. I'm waiting longer to be seen than actually being seen. I wonder when it's time for the glucose test? That must be coming up right?

You know it's a bad day when your yoga pants are getting too tight. Dammit.

Yeah, this happened to me yesterday

I'm not happy about this, I thought for sure the crazy amount of yoga pants i had would last me the entire pregnancy.

Yay I'm excited!  Although I can't remember what we actually decided on in the end!

I have to turn over my vacuum cleaner and cut my and my dog's hair off the roller every couple of weeks. It's nuts.

I have to do this all the time (or rather, DH does because I HATE vacuuming). With two Himalayan cats and a golden retriever (read: long haired beasts) the fur is insane!

My office smells like a butt threw up. And thanks to our PITA HR person, all scents of any kind are outlawed... Because SHE doesn't like them. We only have 6 people in our office and hers is 3 hallways away.
I might just puke in her garbage can...

My nails look horrible. Worse than before I was pregnant. I thought pregnancy was supposed to give you long strong nails?! Nope, mine are peeling and cracking and nasty. :-(

I love my OB's office.  My OB was running 30 minutes late for the follow up to my A/S at my last appointment.  They gave me the option of waiting for her, or having one of the midwives come in and meet with me to go over the results.  She was incredibly nice, and is going to be meeting with me at my next appointment, as my OB is booked up that week.

Mamamonzo

It's amazing how good a shower and some painted nails can make you feel.  Even if you put Pj's back on.  I should really shower more often...

@aviola329 I had an appointment just like that where I waited for 1 1/2 hours and saw the doctor for 10 whole minutes.  I was super irritated.  My clinic gives us comment cards at every visit so I made note of the long wait time on that card.

@katieharpiceland How cool that they teach knitting in all schools there!  My district cares so little about the arts that they have cut all elementary art and band classes here when they were slashing the budget a few years ago.  I doubt they'll ever reinstate those classes.  It's sad.

@pineconey I bet your husband's doctor ordered a bunch of tests as a baseline since he hasn't been seen for so long.  Why are guys such boneheads about regular doctor check-ups?

Rescheduled my appt! Woot! So glad I remembered to do that. Sure to wait 49476362 years though since it's at 2:45 in the afternoon now, lol. But I think I'll treat DS to some Sonic afterwards.

I usually wait forever. I never get taken back until at least 15 minutes after my appt, so I no longer even bother showing up on time. First appt of the day doesn't even matter, it's so dumb.

I sonic so much.

HOLY CRAP - just got a phone call that the baby furniture arrived at the store.  The baby's room is still a disaster (as is the entire upstairs) with the closet doors on the floor and the closet torn apart.  Thankfully they can hold the furniture until we're ready for it, but as I said to my DH "now I really have to get my shit together!!"

I can't believe that room is going to look like a nursery soon... EEEEKS!!!!

It's new here. I actually don't really care for their crazy drinks. I'm boring, lol.

I love their food. Their burgers and fries are my favorite of any fast food. Their chicken strips are amazing as well. I always get a cherry limeaid slush. Damn heartburn is the only thing stopping me!

Back to back dress reversals all day today. Halfway through, and all I want is a nap. Zzzzzzzzzz.....

I wish you could delete threads off your feed that you don't want to see any more.

Sometimes I open a thread and I'm like dumb thread, but I forget it was pointless or get OCD about the new comments yellow sign and click on it again.

eireyes

And since I'm on here, I totally just remembered I wanted to ask you ladies:

Does anyone else wake up at some point in the night ridiculously hot?  For the past week I'll go to sleep in shorts and a tank top with my flannel sheets, blanket and comforter.  I'm quite comfy when I go to sleep, but around 2-3am I wake up with my legs on fire/sweatier than all hell.  I'll usually kick everything but the sheet off at that point, but then I'm cold when I wake up! WTF?!

I get to sit in the nice chair with a back for 5 minutes while I take a practice break. OMG it feels so nice!

Mamamonzo

@katieharpiceland... Is there a way to record yourself playing and post it for us to listen to!?! I would love to hear it!

natpirt

FYI:  If you have a Build-A-Bear near you, my midwife said If I ask the Lady behind the counter I can buy the $5 recorder and bring it to the next appt they will record baby heart beat and have it placed in a bear!!!

I do this ALL THE TIME.

It should be a board rule to make thread titles descriptive. I can never remember what's in an "ahh" or "question" or some other random generic phrase thread. Signed, Controller of the internet.

I've clicked on the damn "ahh" thread too many times with great disappointment.

I'm having a horrible day. My best friend is angry at me. And to top it off, the place I went for lunch usually gives a free chocolate chip cookie and they DIDN'T today.... the day I really needed one. I was counting on that cookie to make me feel better

Good question! I have no idea :-) Though, what I'm playing at the moment is not so pretty!! I'm mostly scratching and hitting the strings. New music baby! When I get to beat the crap out of my instrument... Could record a little of the Nutcracker for you if I figure out how :-D

Oh yes please please!!! The nutcracker is my favorite!!! I was a dancer growing up it holds such a special place in my heart!!!

Ok @karissamonzo I totally made a video of some nutcracker just now, and TB wouldn't let me upload it. So, here's a silly encore we play (in my duo) after concerts sometimes.

It actually has a balance point, and most of the weight is in the bottom :-) so, its not very heavy on the shoulder at all.

Embrace it! Because its just easier that way :-)

Love the idea and will probably be doing this, but I would talk with the employees or manager about the best way, because from what I know, those recorders only play the sound a certain number of times before they die. I would probably want to buy quite a few recorders but then I'm not sure how I would get them in the bear to replace the one that dies. I'm waiting until after LO is born to do the actual bear because I want the baby blue one embroidered with his name, birthday and stats after he's here.

It's been awhile since had to switch out but the one I went to would switch out the recorder. My 14 yr old still likes to go but we don't get the recorders. I think it all just depends on the employees since I am sure they aren't supposed to...lol.

Drama on may 14, Being a mom is hard thread. Ridiculous!! Eta, this woman is mental. Spanking a six month old and claiming her 2 year old is manipulative. Wow..
