~ Monday Pity Party! ~

Let it out, ladies!

Re: ~ Monday Pity Party! ~
I've b!tched about my DH's boss a lot. Today is no exception. He's a nitwit and gets out of doing work, for who knows why. (Although, the higher ups have been complaining about him too, and asking my DH random questions.. so, maybe there might be a promotion in our future!)
When DH took this job, the other pharmacist/manager were going to either work 1 week on/1 week off. (Doubles. So, midnight-4pm) OR switch every two weeks who had the morning shift. This is because the manager needs to be available to talk to the hospitals at any shift. Which either would have been perfect for us.
Now, the new boss refuses to work the second shift. Which, is ok. It's not that big of a deal, but that leaves my DH doing all the managerial work. He is the one talking to hospitals, dealing with problems, talking to other offices/it departments/HR everything.
AND THE MOST ANNOYING PART is that he refuses to work weekends. Seriously. My DH works 9/10 weekends. The boss drives to another state every weekend, and on the off chance he decides not to, he will work. He never asks my husband either. It's just assume he will work everyweekend and the boss can pick and choose when he wants to.
My parents are coming into town in August. They come to visit maybe two times a year. This is the first time since Thanksgiving that they've come. Manager won't let my husband have that weekend off.
I hate him. Maybe if he worked even a quarter of time that my DH does, I wouldn't be as bitter.
But as I said, it looks like the company may finally be firing him. Thank god. (He was hired 2 years ago with NO managerial OR nuclear pharmacy experience. My husband was a new hire fresh out of college, so they didn't think it would be a good fit for him to be manager. They've said several times now they made a huge mistake with that thinking.)

Not a big deal, but a minor irritation.
One of the couples whose baby I watch cancelled yesterday, but texted this morning saying oh wait, no, we still need you. I agreed because I already have kids here anyway, and they pay in cash every day he's here.
At any rate, I think I need to revise my contract when i get back into daycare next year to include something about cancellation/scheduling.
Oh, and last night I watched Friends With Kids and inexplicably bawled half the time. It wasn't even sad for the most part!
Seriously! What is with this! I also have shooting pains in my boobs. So annoying! But, mine is that I have my a/s tomorrow and I do not want to be at work today. I just want to be at home watching Gossip Girl so the day flies by and I can see LO tomorrow.
Just minor annoyances for me... yesterday my nose got sunburned and it's sensitive today and I have begun to be really hungry at work all the time, I'm trying to drink more water but it just doesn't cut it!
I have a lot:
1. Last Tuesday was my 40th birthday. At 10 pm the night before, my grandmother died.
2. And we found out that we are having a girl and yet could not really celebrate it.
3. DD has a new trick- she will cry so hard she vomits. It's pleasant.
4. *I* am still vomiting. 19 weeks tomorrow. Enough already!
Where to begin?
In the last week or so I've found:
I have two -
One - like PP my A/S is tomorrow and I don't want to work today because it's all I can think about.
Two - Yesterday, I puked my lunch all over my bathroom. I was trying to get to the toilet, but instead it went everywhere BUT the toilet. The mirror, the floor, the cabinets, the countertop, the shower, ME...one tiny little piece landed on the toilet. Not in it. So...Baby is going to have to work pretty hard to top that one - NOTHING is nastier than scooping your own vomit out of a sink knowing that ten minutes ago you ate this stuff and enjoyed it.

I want to buy the baby stuff but I worry on where to put it for the next 4 months!
There is a swing on clearance at target (still full price online) it is blue but seriously at half off I don't care one bit.
I was considering getting a swing off Craigslist, but at this price I can get it new.
The main problem is where do I put it?
It's the same reason I haven't gotten the pack n play or the car seat yet. Those are cheaper at Costco than anywhere else, butt hey have them pretty regularly, so I am not as concerned about getting those now.
I want a margarita. Bad.
Especially the maragrita trio from Outback. It's 3 margaritas: a regular/original, something else, and a mango margarita on the rocks. The mango margarita is delish!
OR a frozen blackberry margarita from Chili's. It tastes like sour gummy worms.
Or my favorite sparkling wine. By the bottle.
I miss my alcohol.
When I went to that open house engagement party, they rented a slushie machine. They made daiquiri's and margaritas. They're mean.

Yeah, I know I complain a lot. Oh well.
I just made a new (to me) microwaveable meal. It's one of those 'healthy' steamers. (Yeah, I know it's not really 'healthy' but it's one of the better microwaveable meals, I guess? IDK.)
Anywho.
It sucks.
It's so gross.

Jan 15 NOV siggy challenge:
Happy Birthday!!!
DH and I got in a huge fight again last night about moving and money. I was half tempted to tell him to go to his friends house for a few days because I was just that angry. This morning though he texted me something very nice and made me cry so for now the drama is over.
I am having a hard time dealing with the fact that nothing fits anymore- I am very happy and excited to be pregnant, but it's still hard to outgrow all of my favorite summer clothes.
On a good note, we have our A/S on Wednesday and leave for vacation right after.
You nanny, right? That sucks. I hate having a random switch about leaving the kids really quickly. I literally had ONE day to say goodbye because the mom left her job and didn't tell me, so they didn't need me anymore.
I'm pissed at my DH's work. Normally, in the industry he's in, when something is released, they get bonuses. Well, this year, none. Not even the normal small raise to help with inflation (I don't know that actual term, sorry!) or even a yearly review (just where they talk about where they see him going and what project he'll be on next.)
And I have no one here where I live. I just want someone to go get my nails done, or go shopping or get coffee with, or even just go walking or something. Pathetic, I know. But, hey. Yeah... it's Pity Party Monday!!
