Had a tire blow out on the way home yesterday. Took it to the shop and they have to replace two of them. I'm glad they are and now all the tires will be new but man I wasn't counting on spending $300+ today on that.
It's hot and humid and I hate the heat. We don't have air conditioning. So I bought a small inflatable kiddie pool that my lawn chair fits in. Fell asleep in it yesterday. For three hours. Right before I was going to go inside and reapply sunscreen. I'm lobster red.
Bought a glider yesterday...floor model, final sale. We go pick it up tomorrow.
Bad part? We forgot that the doorways on that side of our house are ridiculously small...24 in doorways. Wtf, builder? So now I'm not totally sure we can even get it IN the nursery. *sigh
Its been so rainy and humid here and NONE of my shoes fit. The only ones that fit are my Birkenstocks but I can't wear those in the rain. The ones I'm wearing right now are so tight! eep! So tired of clothes/shoe shopping and then immediately growing out of them.
Monday Moan to Sassy. I know you are almost 25 weeks, I know you are full of baby, I know today is a struggle and everything hurts, but stop shuffling your feet. X(
I'm sick again! Severe cough, check congestion and rib pain.... Enough said, going to the doctors tomorrow so hopefully he can give me something and possible write me a note. Also going to the ob on wed... Get to hear the heartbeat again
My husband REALLY needs to quit his job and I think today was the last string. Who yells at their employees when you ask them a question? I'm so scared and nervous as I want to be supportive. I just realized I can't ask him to stay in this unhappy position anymore.
I've been in pain since yesterday at 12pm! My dr says its ligament pain (I go in for a checkup in an hour). But if this is normal ligament pain that I have to dea with I'm screwed for labor! It hurts to breathe!
My dog is undergoing heartworm treatment. So I had to take him and his 185 lb self to the vet in 100 degree weather to get two shots....and I get to do it again tomorrow! All while DH is out of town for training.
We'd found the perfect crib/bookcase/dresser/changer set for our nursery, but my MIL insisted shed buy us the crib... she still has made no solid plans for the shower or for getting us the crib, and now the set is sold out and wont become available anymore. Very disgruntled and upset, we have a very particular taste and fell in love with this set because it looked like actual natural woodcolours rather than the fake plastic look that seems to be on pretty much all furniture ever. I just want my gorgeous nursery set (
And to top that off, when she came by yesterday, MIL apparantly was running a fever. How about you inform me of that before your visit, not 12 hours after?! I already get sick easily, let alone now that I'm pregnant. My throat is all stuffed up, my nose is runny, and I'm running a high temperature. Going to have to keep a close eye on that now..
Itchy swollen hands. Also I had to argure with a vendor this morning at work for their incompetence. Not something I wanted to do first thing Monday morning. I'm over today.
Nothing like starting the week off right with a morning nosebleed... during your 45min commute into work... while wearing a white dress.. with nothing to hold up to your nose other than a plastic grocery bag. I look like my boobs just had their period.
My Monday moan is that it's Monday and I really don't want to be at work. Also I can't for the life of me sleep in on weekends anymore! If I don't have to get up at 4am every morning to pee it's my internal clock waking me up at 7am! Geeze I only have 3.5 months left to sleep but my body isn't getting the memo.
We thought we'd be getting out of the army in a couple weeks but my my husband just got an email that it could be pushed back which is so frustrating. I feel so overwhelmed and unprepared because the dates keep changing. Don't they get we need to find a new ob and a house?! Also in general I'm uncomfortable and cranky.
Oh man... I usually don't participate in these but today, I just need to vent... Today is definitely a Monday!
1) It's raining here yet again and there's a tropical depression out in the Gulf stirring up MORE rain for the next couple of days. Our yard already holds onto water easily and doesn't want to let it go. SO not looking forward to more water.
2) My almost 3 year old woke up at 6:45 after going to bed later than usual and refused to go back to sleep. Thank goodness he's taking a nap now.
3) Grocery shopping with said almost 3 year old. He's going to wear me out today.
My husband & I got married in January in a destination wedding. We are having a big, casual party to celebrate with family & friends this weekend. I don't care as much as I thought I would. It will be fun but I don't need it to be perfect (not after planning the wedding and now being pregnant). My moan is that it really has snuck up on me and I am not looking forward to all the stuff we have to do this week. I've been trying to get stuff done but I'm so so tired lately & it just hasn't been happening.
I have had a headache all day long. I just want to lock myself in a dark room for the remainder of the day but I can't. DD has a ball game tonight and DS has his first t-ball practice. (
I make lunch, and put my plate on the table. All of a sudden this wave of nausea comes over me and I have to run to the bathroom to puke. When I walk out of the bathroom, the plate is on the floor and my dog ate EVERYTHING. I was so pissed and shocked! He has NEVER done ANYTHING like this, and I trained him very well from a puppy. I'm always proud of how well-trained he is. Now I just want to cry. ( #ihatemondays
O'15 September Siggy Challenge -- Third Trimester Woes
I'm already uncomfortable with my pregnant belly. Eating makes it worse but I feel ravenous 24/7.
AND DH is on a business trip all week and I'm home with DD, my unhelpful sister, and my "first-time-grandma" mother. If only alcohol was proven safe while pregnant...
1)The office chairs that were bought second hand 6 years ago, have no adjustability, lumbar support or in anyway allow this pregnant woman to get comfortable.
2) Must run fan under desk to keep from over heating and to keep swelling down. (Over 90F and super humid grossness)
and to top it off ...
3) moaning from my under dressed co-worker across the aisle about how cold she is in the office. (I believe in an attempt to get me to turn off the aforementioned fan...)
Mama to a wonderful DD - Sep 2015, Wife to my DH since 2011, 2 dogs, a cat, and hoping to add No. 2 in May/June 2018. Canadian. 5 - IUIs, 3 - IVF retrievals, 2- failed transfers (fresh, and frozen), PGS on second IVF resulted in 1 perfect emby, and DD. 3rd IVF w PGS resulted in 3! perfect embys. 1st transfer - Sep 2017 2 more on ice.
My MM is that my cat is sick and pooping all over the floor. And for some reason our other cat chooses this time to lay down IN the litter box. I wasn't scooping litter and now I feel like I can't even pet my cats!
Im dealing with employees that refuse to learn their job, even tho they have been in their position almost as long as I have been alive. And they are nagging me to do stupid crap that isn't super necessary. Oh, and im having to keep on my dr's ass because he still hasn't gotten my FMLA paperwork filled out, which I need to mail to my HR dept (they want originals) and they have to receive it by Friday. Totally want to say - screw mondays and just sleep thru them.
@anorthro Thanks so much! We'll definitely check it out. A shame we'd have to opt for delivery though as the closest IKEA is a 3.5 hour drive. The crib you have is sturdy enough I assume? Doubt you'd have gotten it otherwise :P
EVERY time I eat now I barely take many spoon fulls and I feel full and can't breath but after an hr or so of total discomfort I'm totally starving ! Why baby why!?!?
@gabrielafrnqyepez I have the same problem! I'm uncomfortable and can't breath for a few hours then sooooo hungry!! And I hate to think what it's going to feel like in another month or two! (
@MelMel92, it does feel sturdy. The pegs that the base sit on seem small, but a friend has the same crib and hers has worked out great. We had a 2-hour drive to get ours, but 3.5 hours is totally pushing it!
MM: I'm there, in that place, where the acid reflux and heartburn are relentless and fatigue hits like a brick wall mid-afternoon. Mental focus: I'm over halfway. I've done it before, and I'll do it again.
First moan: it is Monday....enough said Second moan: my brain is trying to convince my body not to sleep Third moan: I have to get up at the crack of stupid tomorrow to be in the city for an ultrasound (on a good note, I am excited to see wee one).
I have one more: my husband is annoying the sh!t out of me. I'm totally hormonal and stressed out right now - our cat is sick, we have cockroaches in our house, work is unending and frustrating. The littlest things upset me. My husband has zero skill in supporting me emotionally. He takes my emotions personally, gets mad, and then withdraws completely. Normally we are pretty emotionally self-sufficient and it's great, but I really need his help right now and he's just incapable. I have told him I need him to step up a bit, but he basically thinks I just need to take care of myself. Today, he came home from work and practiced guitar for two hours while I made dinner for us for the next three days. Then, after we ate, he said he was going to bed. No help cleaning up, even for five minutes. I had to clean out the fridge (full of his crap for the last two weeks) before I could fit the food I made into it. And then I had to clean those dishes because they're growing some kind of mold. But before I could clean them, I had to put away all the dishes in the dish rack. He works hard, gets up early for work, and has a 2-hour commute, so I get that he's tired. But I'm tired too.
Ugh. Sorry. This is more like a Monday Rant than a Moan.
A $550 AC repair turned into a $9,000 AC replacement. That's exactly what we need before a second baby. More debt. I'm so angry. Insurance and home warranty don't cover this.
Oof-- we have told both of our families that the name will be a surprise for them, and we don't want input, suggestions, thoughts on names...generally trying to avoid the whole "I hate that name/ I had a jerk roommate that name!" comments. Anyway, seeing them recently- the comments won't stop! "What about the name Abigail?" ("Pretty, but not for us.") "Pick whatever name you like, just not names that could be boy or girl." ("Well, you probably won't like what we pick then." --side note we are deciding between Harley or Parker for our baby girl) "This couple we know picked X for their daughter- ugh! They had NINE months and that's the best they could do?!" Gahhhh keep your name thoughts to yourselves, family!!
I just want ice cream and I'm not talking about a whole freaking gallon. Just a small twist cone. I could strangle my FIL... "You should stay away from ice cream all together aren't you pushing over 200lbs now?" " ugh, no I'm not and its none of your business!" Ugh I wish I could tell him to go home, but he's helping my husband with a project in the back yard. X(
Re: Monday Moans
My boss is back from vacation. I wish he'd take another one. It's better for my sanity and stress level.
Oh how that man aggravates me.

I think I over did lunch and now all I want is a nap. Plus it's raining as I stare out this window. ugh ,perfect nap weather !
