We just paid off H credit card from a massive car repair we weren't expecting! Yay. I can breathe and save money again. We decided to just take out cash at the beginning of the month and use that for fun money all month, and only touch the debit cards for gas or groceries or other bills. Most other bills are automatic payment anyway. This has been a long time coming and I'm glad we're finally implementing a plan to get us on track. Cause we are blowing way too much money that should be in savings each month.

My nausea came back full force after feeling wonderful for the last few days. And I know this is really early, but I'm so excited that it will be the start of the holiday season in just a few more months.

@katydid2014 - oh I love that! Is a rocker a "necessity" do you think? I need to figure out what I am even going to be able to fit in baby's room because I need to keep a regular bed in there, too. I am thinking of getting a daybed frame so I can shove it up against the wall.

Do you mean a glider, or rock n play? We loved our glider, and used it everyday for feedings with DD. RnP I could take it or leave it. I'm sure theirs a rocker that's on the smaller side if your worried about space.

Thanks, @chrain , I just went and had fun. Also, nearly 800?? Wtf? Who are these people? And why so they want their name in a random spreadsheet for a forum of which they aren't an active member? Confuses me.

So, we have reached Block Island, and E is napping, and the day has turned lovely. BUT, there are spots on E's feet, legs and hands. She isn't even in daycare anymore!! Wtf!!! I blame Gymboree...and I hope I'm right that it is HFM because if it is anything else...island...no pedi...

Ugh.  I have controlled all of our bills for years now, up until last month when S thought he knew better than me and that we should do things his way.  He's normally really good with money and, after a huge fight, I gave in and decided to try it his way for one month.  I had us one month ahead on bills.  After one month of doing things his way he completely fucked us over.  We invest a good chunk of change every month which we had to cancel for this month just so we can get somewhat caught up.  He had us so screwed we literally have .68 in our joint account right now after our mortgage came out on the first...and I have 3 bills from June still to pay.

On the bright side...He actually said the words "You were right and I was wrong," so the money issue was made somewhat OK by that statement.

Sitting at the restaurant waiting for my French Dip (inspired by this thread) and trying so hard not to throw up. I need food, ASAP!

@csuperstar02‌ Congrats on the twins! Awesome news!

I just got my betas back from last week.  I had bled bright red blood from last Thursday until this past Thursday, so I was stressed.  Last Monday, my beta was 19372 (5w6d) and Friday it was over 33,000 (6w3d)!  I feel so much better now.  My first appt is a week from tomorrow!

Glad to hear your betas increased! Good luck next week. And thanks everyone!

If tiny waist is going to insist on still hanging around despite being a huge bitch to 90% of the board, I'm REALLY going to need her to learn how to fucking spell. She seriously comes off as a high school girl with her text speak, inability to spell and obsession with herself.

MrsLaurenandDan

@SNLT1012‌ hugs. That is an intense dream. I love the thought that he is with Jonah.

@csuperstar02‌ yay twins!

@herbavane‌ I hope the u/a tech can tell you and that it is all good news!

And I'm going to need someone to hold my earrings for me, now. (Still on the EO thread.)

One of those people in that thread that is being snotty has a siggy pic that creeps me out and has for awhile. I just needed to say that.

My only question about tiny waist is why hang around?? Like, does she enjoy people not liking her? It just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

Negative attention is still attention

Tiny waist pissed me off. That takes a lot.

I slept like crap last night. My sciatic nerve was hurting so I couldn't get comfortable. My daughter woke up, and I had to wake up to pee. I just want a day off to sleep.

You keep saying that, yet the other day, it was the cramps post, so... I think  you're more easily pissed offable than you think.

But yeah. Tiny waist has me livid, at the moment.

Hmmm maybe.

But the cramps post didn't make me hurl obscenities at people.  That was more frustration.  (and it worked! no cramps posts for 2 days!!!)

This thread makes my day. I'm still a newbie around this board but I'm trying to jump in more and participate because you ladies are awesome.
I'm back at work today after a week of vacation and my coworker is really annoying me today. For the love of god please turn off the clicky noise on your iPhone as the sound is driving me crazy and you have sent a million texts today!

Thanks for thinking of me @wendyld I haven't had my appt yet but I will come and give a small update when I get back!

Was this me? I don't even remember what I've posted today. If not, I'm thinking of you too, moaster friend!

Can I just say that I love the random thread because it lets me know which threads I need to check in on in my free time at work??  It's so much easier than trying to read all the posts--I should've started reading this thread weeks ago!

Sorry guys, you all move so fast and I'm trying to keep up and still work at the same time.  This is my face today:

TONE IT DOWN, LADY!  

I'm still dying over this.  I keep saying it in my head, and crack up every time.  Who even says things like this?!  hahaha

I was also giggling over that...  It's our new catchphrase!~

BostonAlison

@MandJS you need to change your user name to TheToneItDownLady  or at very least your nickname in chat

I SO wanted to respond with this, but chose the WTF gif, instead.

ETA: Or I just found this one. Which is even better.

Dude credible hulk is pretty epic.  Seriously.

I'm pretty sure he's about to go in my siggy.

He should!

Wow I missed a lot already today.

I spent my morning getting accused not once, but TWICE of stealing money from the cash box at my volunteer position. And the second time was literally right after she handed it to me. Really?! I've been standing in front of you the entire time and haven't even opened the box. How did I steal money?
(And for the record, I did not steal money, she just apparently had no common sense and can't count.)

I'm trying to pack for a road trip to Virginia Beach.  Hubs and I are going to a conference.   I am having Mid-To-Late-First-Trimester-and-none-of-my-pants-fit frustrations!   Why can't everyone wear moomoos

We leave in 12 hours.  Not packed.
