It's been a real covfefe kind of morning already. I left my keys and belly band at home and when I got to work I could not understand why my computer wouldn't turn on...it was because I hadn't pressed the power button.
I was awake for a little while in the middle of the night (anybody else feel like we're suddenly not all that far from the "who's up/midnight chat" threads??) and scrolling through the recently tweeted COVFEFE jokes really took my mind off of my own pity party. But this morning it's much more of a "I have to laugh at this stupid thing, otherwise I will cry at all the other news."
My wtf is that after having to cancel my last therapy session because DH was sick and I had to cover for him volunteering at school with DS, I'm now sick for my appointment today. So I'm stuck trying to decide how much I need to go versus how badly it would hurt to talk for an hour. What's with this bad timing luck?
My WTF is more of a disappointment. I'm on the parent council of DS1's school. I helped the school apply for a arts funding grant and found out today we didn't get it. I was really hoping we would and it would have been nice to have done that for the school. I'm trying to encourage greater arts programming for kids because I grew up with A LOT and went to an Arts High School and it meant a lot to me. Just sad I couldn't make that happen.
Somehow I need to figure out how to study for a test for my language course, clean a building site we're doing, clean a part of the store we own for a demonstration, make the last of the soap for next week's Summer Line release, and get all my house chores done. WTF.

@2Dash that sounds really disappointing. I went to a great school system with lots of opportunities. I attribute that mainly to the wealthy town next door but it was great having so many art/language/AP options. I think it's important for kids to have.
We had a fire drill at work but we didn't know it was scheduled. My dorm once was on fire (no one died or was injured, but an apartment was destroyed) so I hear the bell and just leave wherever I am. I get back to my desk and I have a missed call from a conference room in the office. It's my boss. She says "Just wondering if you know if this is a drill or a real fire."
WTF why would you call me assuming I have accepted death just like you?
@2Dash that's disappointing. I'm an artist and my 11 year old has never been to a school with an art program. She has been to schools in 4 different states. I think it's so sad and I feel like art programs of all kinds are so important in helping kids learn different (healthy) ways to express themselves and explore the way they see the world.
@ElizabethSchuyler I'm currently crying but your post made me laugh so now I'm doing a weird laugh/cry. Specifically the "why would you call me assuming I have accepted death just like you" got me.
WTF coworker who is not only listening to classical music loud enough that I can hear (it's called headphones, btw), but both humming and whistling along to it?? Please, homie, I'm trying to concentrate to prep for a big event tomorrow and I cannot with you and the annoying noises.
(and now that I have vented, I must return to work)
@sweetmelissa4 the new girl here files while listening to this old Italian style dining music. It's kind of opera-ish. Everyone else uses headphones...I obviously need to buy her a pair. Every time she's back here, I feel a mix of wanting to throw something at her and wanting to eat black olives. I'm not against her music, but no one else here is that intrusive. We all have headphones.
Mine is that my coworkers across the hall have been keeping their office doors shut. I don't have a door and I face the hallway. It makes this place feel very uninviting and dark. I really need a window in my office...or better coworkers.
WTF to our neighbor. His dad died of cancer and his mom went to a nursing home since she has dementia, both in their 60/lbs, leaving him with the house they loved and cared for. He's 36, been mooching off them for a few years now, and letting the yard go to shit. You guys, he's a landscaper!! I got so upset when I saw the 12 year old neighbor weed whacking the back yard for him. Last week, DH spent 3 hours weedwhacking it to get it low enough to use a mower over it twice. The guy's sister, who lives a town away, messaged me, asking me to thank DH. This guy needs to get his ish together. His parents would be so upset.
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
WTF, DS. We are currently in "Operation No more diapers" because if end up with 3 in diapers, I'll scream. Today is day 6. We've had 2 100% accident free days in a row. Today he went to the bathroom and yelled, "I did it!" and flushed and asked for a treat(he gets 1 m&m or skittle). I went in to check and saw a puddle on the floor. I asked, "Did you pee on the floor or in the potty?" He said, "On the floor, duh." Come on, dude. You know better. And where did that sass come from? Lol.
My WTF is to the daily Braxton Hicks I am getting. Lastnight they stopped me in my tracks....i couldn't do anything except go to bed to get off my feet.
Then this morning I am passing what i believe is mucus plug....tinged with blood. I am having check up tomorrow but i am nervous that cervix is dilating already....
Also....DH was in bathroom while I was having shower and got to see it....and for some reason I am more concerned that he saw something like that, than I am that it happened. I dunno. Feels weirdly intimate in a not good way. And DH us now concerned that there is something wrong....so I get to be the calm positive one. So WTF to that as well.
@c+mpeachey hoping all goes well at your appointment! Not sure if you're doing anything when you get any contractions, but during my last pregnancy, my OB and MFM OB advised me to lay on my left side, drink a ton of water, and if that didn't help, to take a warm bath or shower. Of course, talk to your OB to see what they advise, but just something to talk to them about.
@cm+peachy Hope everything is okay. *TW* that happened to me in January. Scary! */TW*

my WTF is my sudden onset (or so i like to think) of pregnancy brain. i work at a crisis centre where we lock up the knives and are VERY diligent about this. i cut up an apple with a big ass butcher knife and left it smack dab in the middle of a very busy kitchen. *face palm*. i then proceeded to leave the medication cupboard which is locked up directly after we open it wide open for a few minutes. what the hey ?!?!
Apparently my a$$hat neighbor thinks it's acceptable to Rev his motorcycle at 11:15 at night... What the f...?! It's a Wednesday and you have kids dude, knock it off!
My DH is working on getting custody of his son who is one, he has been living with his grampa and we get to see him a few times a week. We get to see him tomorrow morning and everyone waited till last minute to inform us that by doctor's orders he is not allowed to have things containing wheat or yeast. Add that to him being lactose intolerant and us not getting payed till Saturday we had to scramble to make sure the food we had for him would be safe so he would have something to eat. It all left me going wtf and I had no idea that was in so many baby foods
