People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

@ash0625 - I feel ya. I will say, though, I'm super pumped about Friday only being two days away. I HATE year-end. I'm still trying to finish 2018 stuff and 2019 is screaming for my attention.
Just thought of another! As per usual, my jack@ss neighbors LOOOOOOOOVE fireworks - #becauseMurica - and it always causes me stress because they shoot them off basically the WEEK of Jan 1st and July 4th, so I don't get much sleep those weeks between trying to keep my toddler from being awakened and my poor dog thinking it's the apocalypse. WTF, people. Now I know why cops question neighbors after SOs when things go down.

I'm working late again and ordering ramen from the local Japanese place for the second night in a row because it is mostly chicken broth and ginger veggies, and that was fine last night. Will it work tonight? Stay tuned...

@moon1417 I agree 10,000%!!! Pants are overrated. I get supper annoyed the last few days if I'm expected to take my comfy pants off to wear "real" pants. Pfft. My goal is to not wear real pants for the rest of the week.
Wtf is wrong with the weather here? It was -45C for several days. Now tomorrow is supposed to be +1. Maybe mother nature is as hormonal as me?
My little one has made it so I have zero interest in anything chocolate flavored, nothing fried and apparently I now hate bbq ribs and bbq sauce. Orange juice is liquid gold, and salty chips/pretzels are my to go snack. My biggest craving is soup, all the soups... and caesar salads with lots of fresh parmesan cheese.
Today for lunch my husband got philly cheesesteak from my favorite restaurant. It tasted bland. Food disappointment is awful.
Edit: oh yea, greasy food = nausea for the entire day.
