    Upon the advice of new moms in my office I'm making a list of shows/podcasts to watch/listen to during my insomnia/late night feedings and they are ALL true crime related. I hope there are no studies that link growing up listening to stories about murder make you more likely to become a serial killer. 
    I've had the same thought re: obsession with murder/crime shows and have yet to kill anyone, so I think you're ok!
  • @ash0625 - I've been making a list, too! DH doesn't like true crime stories, but Mindhunter is on my list!
  • My manager left on maternity leave a month ago and it’s been a fucking disaster at work since and I have to do 8 employee reviews before 12/20 and have no motivation to do them. I spent my morning at work counting down how many days I have left at work: 24 days and 4 of them are work from
    home.

    Hahaha I don't think you have to worry about that! Although I will say that my mom and sister watched a lot of true crime shows when my sister was growing up and she now has an over-exaggerated fear of being murdered. 
  • My temp trainee was home sick yesterday with a fever and I told her to stay home today to get better. Yes she needs all the training she can get but I have zero fucking patience to deal with her today.

  • Thanks to holidays and appointments, this was my first full week at work since September. Thanks to extra monitoring and NSTs, it’s also my last full week at this job...EVER.

    ETA: I don’t feel the least bit bad or sad about that.
    When you say ever, are you going to be SAHM? If so that's awesome. 
  • You guys make me not miss working outside of home at all. I get all cringey reading your work day stories because it reminds me why I was so relieved to be done with that. Hang in there, hope all your coworkers quit making your days terrible!!! 

    Mine are mild I suppose, haha:

    I think the queso at Qdoba is gross. I love queso and they ruin it. Everyone else acts like it’s the greatest in the world and I don’t get it.

    I’m not excited about Christmas this year. And have only gotten presents for DH and DS so far. And have no motivation to finish Christmas shopping for everyone else. Bleh.

  • DD has basically lived on my iPad this week. I'm tired and don't want to do things. 
  • I had nachos for lunch with Ferraro Roches that my massage therapist gave me. Now I’m contemplating an afternoon bowl of ice cream.

    Thanks, @Chawk17! The plan is for me to go back to work in 2020 and use the time as a transition to a new career or new school. (The job i have now is not the job i signed up for all those years ago and it’s not very fulfilling. Plus, daycare will cost at least what i bring home, so it’s definitely not worth the stress and time.) It’s exciting and scary at the same time!! 
  • I stayed up until 2am binge watching Netflix... after complaining all day yesterday about being tired.
    Same here! Been bingeing season 2 of The Crown. I finished and now I need a new show!
  • My FFFC is that I am still sleeping through the night. If I get woke up by my DS (which is not often) then I have to pee. If not I can sleep till my alarm without peeing.

    Jealous! Hip pain is what wakes me up most nights and then I end up having to pee. It's a rare night I can sleep non-stop until my alarm.
  • @kbrinks2 I second being jealous! Lucky, lucky you. 

    I’m also jealous of all of you who can work from home. I wish I had that opportunity...

    +1 for the post. @kbrinks2 we are the luckiest. DS sleeps all night through, i rarely wake up at night. Thanks to God  <3
  • I do not understand how you unicorns can sleep all night but I am jealous. I am up just about every 2 hrs to pee 

    DS has a stomach bug, and while I feel so bad for him I am slightly relieved I don’t have to go to our extended family Christmas. My aunt is a judgmental shove Jesus down your throat type and I am just too tired to deal with her in a polite manner this year.

    @babybro218 just think how you and LO will be so connected/bonded. And who knows maybe you'll stay out  longer if possible.

    Agree...even if I cut liquid off early I still am up all night peeing. Wish I was a unicorn. 
  • Haha @Chawk17 and @GoogleMD I know I'm a lucky one! Definitely not complaining! I am thankful that I don't have to pee very often since everytime I get out of bed I feel like my pelvis is splitting apart!

    I am supremely annoyed with the website and app. This message has taken 3 minutes to write/post because of all the ads slowing down my computer. I have had to closethe website on so many occasions because it freezes. this is the only site that does this. The app isn't any better on my phone. So I am on here rarely a I am so annoyed by this. Now we're at 5 min it took to type this. shutting down the browser again... ugh
  • DH drank too much at a family get together last night.  We had a bunch of the family stay at our house.  I don’t feel well but got up with the kids, played hostess this morning and stripped the beds after everyone left.  DH has buried himself under the blankets and pillows in our bed in between vomiting.  He won’t take a Zofran or anything to make himself feel better so I have no sympathy.  I’m not even trying to keep the kids quiet.

    The app was giving me issues too, seemed to think I was a new member who had to wait to post. But today I was promoted to member and can post!

    Eta well that explains it, this is my account for if/ when I get banned.

    We went to a Christmas party last night and DH overdid it as well. He’s not as bad off as yours hangover-wise, but the first thing he said this morning was that the last coat of paint in the nursery wasn’t getting done today as was previously planned  :|

    I can't use the website,  it slows my whole computer down,  so i am only ever on mobile,  but large pictures crash the mobile site all the time!
