I'm not awake early... I'm up really late.  Today's going to suck. 

scottishlass1213

I don't want to be that girl but I don't have one so far! It's going to be 76, I have a dress on with bare legs and my DH comes home tonight.  So I am going to AW in the WTF thread haha...until I jinx myself

scottishlass1213

Oh, wait I spoke too soon - I have a funny WTF.  So DH sent me a pic last night of what remained of his graduating class for the school he was in for the Army and there is one chick in the picture.  I woke up at 1am and saw it and went back to sleep but then proceeded to have a dream about how he cheated on me with that woman LMAO.  So basically WTF mind hahahah

In the last 24 hours we have had the weather go from 79 degrees to 32. We've also had two tornadoes, now some ice and flooding. Part of my department is out looking for a car that was swept away in the flood waters. WTF WEATHER. 

scottishlass1213

OMG @Firemanswife11 I thought we were bad having snow on Saturday to 76 today and then rain the rest of the week - but you take the cake!  Whereabouts are you again?

Firemanswife11

@scottishlass1213 Texas, lol. Our weather is so wild. 

scottishlass1213

Oh, DH has been in El Paso for the last couple of weeks!  My mom and I did San Antonio in September too but other than that, all I have been to in TX.

WTF Fitbit. My app says I have some battery left, but my display is blank. If I put it on the charger it gets hot to the touch within minutes and nothing is happening. They want me to mail the device is so they can 'further investigate'. This is my FOURTH device in just under 4 years. First world problems, I know, but I call BS on you Fitbit.

I'm just stoked that we're supposed to get up to 32 degrees by Saturday! Just in time for more snow...
For real though this winter has been extra long and cold. I know I chose to live in a cold place, but yeeesh.

My WTF is to myself for leaving all the leftovers out last night. And to DH for stomping through the house and waking up DD (after she and I had already been up most of the night). Might have to sneak in an extra nap today!

That happened to me a few months ago.  It happened when the app wanted to update and I connected it to the charger and it says it can't find it, nor is it charging or anything.  I haven't done anything about it but it pissed me off because I googled and it sounds like this happens a lot.  If you end up mailing it and get an answer, I would be curious!  I'd like to upgrade to something else anyways.

Is it your fourth device that you’ve bought or that they’ve replaced? If you go online and do the customer service chat and explain, they may send you another free of charge. They did for me even though mine was a little past warranty. I didn’t have to send in my old one or anything!

@mrslittlemac I hate it when I do that. I feel so bad wasting food.

WTF weather? It was so warm the last few days we had switched to AC. Hadn’t turned the heat back on and our house got to 59 degrees last night! Poor DS was only in cotton PJs and his hands were freezing this morning

mrsbubbles-2

+1 for WTF weather?!? It was 70 when I left work yesterday, big ol' rain storm rolled through last night and now it's below freezing. So they're out there salting the streets so all the rain doesn't freeze. I should've called out sick.

WTF to these types of baby clothes:




Seriously?!?

LC12261012

We are a one car family and it works out ok since I don’t work, so I drop DH off at work and pick him up and have the car all day to do whatever. When something is wrong with the car however, things go south fast. It overheated this morning as we got to his job, on a day when I have two appointments and need to grocery shop. It’s also going to be the last warm day for the foreseeable future and I wanted to take DS to the park, plus I was looking so forward to chick fil a for lunch. Ugh! WTF. 

hezzer78

@Firemanswife11 Is that the nasty crud that's coming our way?? I'll have to double check the weather - they said flash flood stuff til 3. I'm glad I won't be driving a lot today.

@mrsbubbles-2 OMG those clothes make me cringe so hard!! There was a boy onesie I saw with a similar sentiment on it and I just about threw up.. I'll have to see if I can find it.

This is such a first world WTF but WTF me. I’m soooo regretting my decision to cut my long hair. Even though it’s now still below my shoulders I just miss the length of it and how easy it was to style!! Never cutting it this short again!!!

Both in a way - my first one stopped charging within a year, and they wouldn't replace it, but gave me 20% off a new device. I bought the Charge at that point. That Charge started falling apart, literally, so they sent me a new one. Then the same thing happened, so they gave me 20% off a device again and I bought the Alta.
I bought my first one in May 2014, and I only remember because it was right before our wedding. So this Alta is my 4th one. Each time I have contacted customer service - this morning I 'chatted' them and they emailed me a shipping label to send it in so they could investigate it. So who knows what'll happen! If they offer me the 20% off again I'm not sure I'll replace it. I may look into other comparable devices.

Firemanswife11

@hezzer78 you're in Houston, right? I'm honestly not sure. I thought the weather was coming up from the southwest, rather than down from the northwest. 

7425cait

Wtf to Lab Corp for taking 3 weeks to get my NT bloodwork back. 

hezzer78

@firemanswife11 You right. I double checked - it is coming from the southwest area. We got some rain this morning but nothing terrible so far..

jsnakehole

Gah, wrong thread! WTF, me.

Omg SO told me last night they (he shares a house) met their new roommate last night and her name is Sara. I had a dream that he got her pregnant and they were getting married. WTF?! I've never once even thought about him cheating on me, I trust him more than I've ever trusted anyone before lol.

DD has had a runny nose for the past 2 weeks. No fever, small cough, still silly, no big deal. Yesterday, a rash popped up all over her body. Got better overnight and then came back even worse about an hour after waking. Doc appt at 2 but wtf is this? I have no experience with hives but that's what it seems like to me. She hasn't eaten anything new or anything. So confused and worried. 

calimom2524

@rocknrollmom DS2 got hives super randomly one day and benadryl only made them worse. I took him to the pediatrician and she said we may never know what caused them but they had to prescribe a different antihistamine for them to clear up. He has never gotten them again since then! It was so weird. The worse one was on his eye and his whole eye swelled up. 

lalala2004

@mrsbubbles-2 I hate those, too. Someone gave DS a onesie that said “Pick me up, sweetheart, I dig older chicks.” WTF, he is a baby! That one went in the diaper bag as an emergencies only onesie.

scottishlass1213

@calimom2524  I know, right? DH can't even lie to me when I ask him what he ate for lunch and he really ate a pizza or something.  It's bizarre how the mind still works hahaha

rocknrrollmom

@calimom2524 eye hives sound terrifying!! Hopefully that's all she has since she has no other symptoms. I didn't realize they could appear randomly 

neeraja_k

@rocknrrollmom Have you used any new types of cleaners, soap, shampoo in the house? I broke out in a case of all over the body hives at college due to a new brand of cleaning product they used in the dorm showers. I showered and shaved that morning like usual before class and at my first class I felt itchy and I could literally watch them pop up all over, one at a time till I was covered from head to toe. I left class and headed to medical and I ended up on Zantac and Benadryl, two different types of antihstamine. I've never had hives before or since, so very scary and random, and I can't imagine on a kiddo.

I hate that.  I was washing my hair this morning and considering cutting it but then I remembered how much I hate my hair after its been cut.  Long hair is so much easier for me. #teamponytail 

dirtanddiamonds

@mrsbubbles-2 I like the first one. Lol. But I still tell my 13 year old. No dating until she’s 35. Haha. 

My WTF is the ice. I’m so over the ice. Ready for warm weather. Ready to start bitching about how hot and miserable I am this summer.

WTF CHICKFILA.  so there is a company that delivers lunch to our office and every day they have like 5 restaurant options and you order online and they bring it to you.  So they had Chick-fil-A today and I was like YES FRIES and I went to order it.  I read it as saying "comes with waffle fries and a cookie."  Apparently it said "comes with waffle CHIPS and a cookie."  ALL I REALLY WANTED WAS THE FRIES YOU ASSHOLES.

Apparently you can't even upgrade to fries because they don't want them to be cold when they get here.  HORSE SHIT.  I mean the cookie is a nice peace offering, but fuck you, Chick-fil-A.

legallykate

I am also WTFing the Texas weather. And the sexualized baby onesies. I saw one that said "Daddy's Side Chick." Like WHY would I ever want to think of my daughter that way? Super ick.

hoodwink89

WTF stupid kids posting crap on social media! My 5 year old was in school an extra 30 minutes today because they were on lockdown! She is in half day kindergarten! What the hell is wrong with people! Some kids need more discipline in their lives.

mbrowling

Out of nowhere, I threw up all over myself while driving to work this a.m. WTF body, don't you know you're in the 2nd tri now

P.s. I decided to stay home when I got back to change bc it had to be a sign today was going to be terrible

princesslockness

@hoodwink89 We have had 'threats' the last 2 days at our district/district across the river. Nothing was done by students, but out of my 120 students a day I had 71 yesterday. We have increased LEO presence, but I'm ready to go find these kids and educate them about the seriousness of their threats.

melprop

@hoodwink89 I got an auto-call from my SD on my way to school this morning. Apparently there had been an incident handled by police at the high school last week. The robo call was telling me everything had been handled & was fine. Um, I was in the high school all last week, and I never knew about an incident. 

rocknrrollmom

@neeraja_k we went through everything she had been exposed to because I thought it must have been something new, food or laundry detergent or soap or something. Nothing different at all. We just took a nap and half of them are gone again! So weird

calimom2524

@rocknrollmom that was us too! We hadn't changed anything, didn't introduce anything he hadn't had before, he didn't even go anywhere out of the ordinary and wasn't in a school or social setting so nothing could have been introduced to him without our knowledge. It was so weird, it was almost refreshing when the doctor told us we may never know what caused it and it's relatively common. Hives are terrifying!

neeraja_k

@hoodwink89 Our local tri-state area has has school lockdowns for the past several days due to social media threats. They've found and arrested two of the people implicated, a 17yo boy at an area high school and a 13yo girl who threatened her middle school. Just WTF. I'm so over it.

I was bullied a lot in school, horrendously, but I never once considered shooting my bullies or anyone else. Is bullying that out of control now, or are kids just less able to deal with it like the "good old days" due to zero tolerance? 

My bullies left me alone when I decked the main girl of the group and left her with a broken nose. It only took me 4 years of hellacious bullying to finally find my feet and stand my ground. I got 3 days "suspension" that never went on my permanent record, the principal just recorded it as "family emergency absence", just to satisfy the bully's parents. *eye rolling emoji*

carrotsandpeas3

WTF pregnancy headaches. I know a lot of you have been dealing with them. Mine seem to be much worse when I wear my hair in a ponytail (even a loose one!). I've been growing my hair out for over a year though and it just reached my shoulders so I'm not cutting it, and I have to pull it back at work. So instead I'm taking it down and having weird lumpy hair every time I get a minute to sit at my desk.
