This thread’s meme seems especially appropriate today. I’m considering it a win that I got DD to school and am still awake. I got on a late night crafting kick last night and did not get anywhere close to enough sleep. Why do those kicks only come late at night? Whhyyyy?
It’s super icy out in and on and around the snow, so I am in a lyft to work. Feels kinda lazy, but I am doing the lyft shared ride version for the first time ever. I could not ignore the $25 price difference today! Wish me luck.
@ohsunnydays - Nothing bad here: we didn’t lose power or anything because we’re in the city. I heard a bunch of burbs folks lost power which is such a bummer. We both also worked from home yesterday even though my SO took our kid to daycare, so a pretty great snow day in my PJs: I did not leave the house AT ALL yesterday! I just had to make it to the lyft this AM, so all good. Now that I am downtown, the sidewalks are all clear so it’s easy going. How about you?
I don’t really miss the cold and snow of Norwegian winters, but this rain and wind business in Seattle isn’t fun either. Kind of jealous of people with pretty snow right now! Not the storms and blizzards though, that sounds miserable. Hang in there!
We have just a dusting of snow. It's nice towatch it fall from inside under a blanket. Today is my only day off for 12 days so I have no problem with lazy & warm.
Partner and I are celebrating 21 years today!

I got a video of my belly moving for the first time today! So exciting, he was responding to my voice which makes me feel amazing, and that I probably talk too much. Haha
The “Natural Birth Stories” on TB this morning has made me full on stabby. The stories covered include giving birth on a farm, an “orgasmic” birth, and an unassisted hospital birth.
@lzzfrancisco poor kitty died before we could get into the vet we think it had an upper respiratory infection or something similar. We did our best, but it didn't make it through the night. Poor kitty! The worst is that DS now thinks there's a kitty inside every cardboard box he sees. It's heartbreaking - he goes "kitty kitty!!!!!"
Oh my gosh @BourbonBiscuits I’m so sorry to hear that! You guys tried so hard to save him at least he didn’t go alone and cold but in a place with people who cared.
That's what I keep telling myself @megpants209 - he was all snuggled up in a blankie with a fully belly when he died instead of cold in a storm drain.
We just have a thing for getting really sick animals and nursing them back to health apparently. When we adopted our puppy he was literally on his death bed. $5000 worth of emergency vet visits later and he was perfectly healthy! I wish we could swing that with this lil kitty, but with the baby coming we just couldn't
@BourbonBiscuits - oh no! That is very sad but you did a good thing giving that poor baby a good last meal and warm place to lay it’s head for the last time.
I couldn’t get on to TB all day, super annnoying! im sorry to hear about the kitty @BourbonBiscuits but as everyone else has said at least he was in a warm and nice place ❤️ You are good people for taking in the little guy
@sjnsjnsjn I'm out in the burbs, and got almost a foot!! Luckily I could WFH but daycare did have a late start, couldn't bring her in til 10, but at least it wasn't closed.
TW: 1 infant loss 8/17: Our daughter was born 8/18: Our daughter kicked open heart surgery ass 2/19: We lost our son to Prader-Willi/Paradoxical Vocal Cord/ Noonans at 6wks old 4/26/2020: EDD for baby #3!!!
@sjnsjnsjn I'm glad it wasn't too bad for you! Out near @smallbutmighty77 -- think we got around 9". We lost power from 11:30-3:30 am. I have students at school who still don't have power who are staying in hotels. It' was insane! So many down power lines, trees...transformers blowing up. Wowza! And now this weekend, 40s again? We're going to get flooding when it all melts?!
I maybe fainted just a little bit when I got home today. I’m now laying in bed fully clothed with my shoes on because I can’t really move. I may sleep like this if DH doesn’t undress me.
Wowza thats a lot of snow!! Hope everyone is safe!
Update: saw my ob today and the vessel has moved enough that he doesnt feel hospitalization is necessary! So happy to hear that! What a relief. Its still an issue as its an exposed vessel but I’m happy I’ll be home for Christmas! I go back in two weeks to confirm.
