@‌wasnotwas as someone who gets awful migraines-ibuprofen the second you even think one is coming on and a big serving of caffeine. I always need something car by to keep my stomach settled. Just did it with Tylenol (because pregnant) yesterday and it worked wonders.

thank you! Ibuprofen is down, gotta get off this call to get some caffeine.

@34blondie - so cute!!  You and the adorable baby in the sweet little suit!

Vent: My supervisor kept putting off our annual evaluation because we also had audits today, but I just found out that she didn't finish it and so she is sending it to me tomorrow via e-mail, and we will be discussing it on Tuesday.  I'm kinda upset that I still have to wait on this, but at least I have a chance to go over the eval before discussing it.  (I think I'm dreading this too much)

Bwahaha ....

https://www.scarymommy.com/rules-of-eating-according-to-a-toddler/

1. Refuse anything but Cheerios for breakfast. Have them without milk on Mondays, Thursdays and every other Friday.

2. Hyperventilate if they get this wrong.

3. Don’t try anything new, EVER.

4. Just because you liked something yesterday does not mean you have to like it again today. It is perfectly acceptable to change your mind and you do not have to explain yourself.

5. Be suspicious of anything that was recently alive. Orange, dead-looking stuff is safer.

6. Request a wide variety of food at the supermarket and then A. Deny all knowledge of it upon your return home or B. Allow it to be cooked first and then say you don’t like it.

7. Spend some time revising brand names so that you can legitimately refuse cheaper derivatives.

8. Any amount of cooking or food preparation time above 30 seconds is wholly unacceptable.

9. Ask for updates of when things will be ready every 10 seconds. Protest with your fists on the floor if things are taking too long.

10. This may result in the meal being served half frozen but it doesn’t matter as you are not going to eat it anyway.

11. No eating on Wednesday afternoons, just because.

12. Make sure you have a spoon, knife and two forks with all meals and then eat with your hands.

13. Only ever use one specific plate. Flip out if it is dirty.

14. Deposit as much of your meal off the side of the table as possible. They say they “spend their whole life cleaning the kitchen floor.” Help make it a reality.

15. Sweet potato chips are insulting.

16. Avoid anything with sauce as there is a risk it contains blended vegetables.

17. Never drink water. They say “You will drink it when you’re thirsty.” Don’t. Get admitted to hospital with dehydration. That’ll teach ‘em.

18. Always say you are hungry when you are in the bath.

19. Train your body clock to wake up for midnight bananas.

20. Casseroles, stews and pies are not to be trusted.

21. Sweet potato chips are insulting.

22. Kick people who describe broccoli as “little trees” in the shins. It’s condescending and its disgusting.

23. Avocado – WTF? – NO.

"Hate Me" by Blue October just came on 97x (I listen on iHeart at work).  Listening to the lyrics now and knowing that he is supposed to be talking to his mother makes me super sad.  I would never want my child to ever think I should hate them.  My love for Lily is unconditional, as it will be for any other kids we have.  And to think that I used to love that song.

Can I get some t&ps for peace for my grandpa? He's been fighting kidney failure for a long time. He never wanted to do dialysis or any of that, but has been doing it or my grandmother. I just found out that he had a seizure and was sent to a bigger hospital. I just want him to be comfortable and at peace, whatever that means right now. Thanks so much, ladies.

Gotta add my favorite picture of me and gramps.

@wasnotwas Do you wear glasses? You may need to look into a new prescription. 

Only to do work on the computer. I was thinking that might be it, might be time for full-time glasses

So busy at work guys. Today I was answering questions from two coworkers and we ended up talking about my to do list for the rest of the week. I said "Thank God today is Wed so I have two more days to it all done". They both looked at me and started laughing and I was like "noooooo it's Thurs isn't it???"

Some work then wine tonight. Hoorah! It might be a late night!

itsStackie

Just finished a run, and our roommate brought home a bottle of wine to share. I didn't buy it and it's Thursday, right?

musicalsilver

Y'all are making me seriously crave a nice cool glass of wine. So sad we're all out.

I'll just have to drink liquor ;-)

Cool old mom photos:

 Woodfin Camp, requested that he empty his contents from a closing storage facility. That's when the 83-year-old photographer found a box titled "Mothers," filled with beautiful images of women and their children.

DH just made me a drink.  Sparkling water, seriously awesome rum, and a splash of cherry juice.

Sadly it just tastes a bit like cough syrup.

I plan on chasing it with some limoncello :-D

ETA: WOAH liquor!  I'm only half done with my drink and *wheeeee*

We finalized our choice on our new sons name tonight. So glad that we came to an agreement before my hubby deploys again. Brantley Wyatt will be joining our family come December

@ChicagoChic82‌ Gasping for air warrants a trip to the ER now.

All this period talk is making me really glad I'm pregnant again...

If it's just once and he recovers, no. But if he's consistently gasping that's scary and he needs to go in.

@lioness13 it's basically a group of ladies who make X copies of a recipe (in our case it's 6, that's a good size), 1 to keep and 5 to trade with the other ladies. So you meet and come home with 5 new meals you didn't make yourself. It saves you time because preparing 6 dinners of the same thing is faster than 6 different dinners, and it saves you money because you can buy in bulk and how many times do you buy something to make a recipe and throw out part because you don't use it all? 

There are lots of recipes and ideas online for starting a group. 

This is so freaking awesome! I need to try this with maybe 3 friends. I could handle making 4 meals.

151 new posts since I last opened this thread early this morning. After my sister got done with her orientation stuff today we decided to get on the road and head to the big touristy town about 45 minutes from where we are. We had so much. Now we are hanging out in the hotel room waiting for Grayson to tire himself out enough so we can all go to sleep!

kelly422

Try saline drops and let them soak a few minutes hen suck him out. May help loosen anything up.

ColieAnn31

@NaChelleBeck‌ yes ma'am!

nikel13

H, out of the blue tonight, stated the we should start TTC in June of next year. I said okay. He didn't even act like he wanted a second until that moment.

ColieAnn31

@NaChelleBeck‌ it had been years since I've been there too. It's about a 4.5 hour drive for us from Kansas City. We weren't planning on going while we were down here but we wanted to do something so we hopped in the car and went! Grayson seemed to enjoy himself. And we got him the classic Branson souvenir tshirt

Just had a really nice time at my sorority convention gala. DH has been sending me lots pics and video of KJ. I was going to head back home tomorrow but he encouraged me to stay another night and enjoy my time away doing my own thing. I'm so thankful he knows how important "me time" is for me.

I've been wanting to bake. I was going to make banana bread (with Reeses of course), but now I kind of want brownies. You guys are a bad influence.

Cricket81

You can also just smear peanut butter on one of the graham crackers and use regular chocolate. Delicious!!

Pitchslap said:

Banana bread with reeses?? I need more details! Reeses instead of those disgusting walnuts??

Basically! lol. I just chop up the reese's minis and toss a bunch in the dough. And, that friends is how you make banana bread extra delicious
