It is only Weds. but has been a long rough week already.
First, Bella got an insect bite this weekend which got pretty bad and is now on antibiotics and benadryl.. I know ..not the end of the world but now she has the runs and is not eating well and that usually drives me nuts. I am constantly obsessing over how much she eats ( probably more my issue since she always gains at check ups)
Now for the first time ever I'm having MIL issues. I have been with DH for almost 12yrs and have always gotten along fine with MIL. She had a big blow out with DH on Sun. (that is another possible post) and it is really bothering me.
Yesterday, my dad who has a heart condition was unaccounted for for almost 4hrs! Of course we thought the worst had happened. My mom got a call from him around 7:30am and the call dropped. He is a driver and he only calls my mom at noon to check in from his cell phone.Then she called him back and heard what she thought was him moaning and the call dropped again. Finally around 10:30 she decided she should call me and we started calling everywhere. We thought he never made it to work and was having a heart attack. Luckily I was able to get a hold of someone at his job who gave me a website where I could track him by gps and we were able to confirm his car was moving and at noon as always he called my mom who was already at my office with me. What a relief that was!!! Turns out there was just something wrong with his phone!
Then this morning my nanny tells me she is having financial problems and will need to take on another infant (she already has taken on her 3 other grandchildren). We know she loves our daughter like a grandchild but this just seems like too much for her. DH and I have to really sit down and talk. Something else we have to worry about.
Ugh..to top it off my boss is getting on my nerves...if you made it this far..thanks for listening. I realize these things are probably nothing compared to other more critical issues but I am the type of person that just worries and worries and worries. I realize things could be worse but still....
Thanks for reading.

Re: feeling down..could use some hugs :(
Hugs!
I am glad your dad is okay.
Ugh, that's a lot you have on your plate. And how scary about your dad -- I'm glad that turned out okay.
And hugs to you.
I'm glad your dad is ok. could you pay your nanny a little more so she wouldn't have to take on another child?
Hugs...my boss is getting on my last nerve too...I just keep telling myself that I want to look for another job, but I can't really right now.
I hope Bella starts feeling better from the antibiotics. I have stopped worrying so much about what M eats.
Oh no... that is so much to deal with at once.. any one thing along probably would be a huge deal but all of it together is just too much at once.
(((hugs))) I'm glad your dad is ok, I hope your nanny and MIL situations are sorted out soon and I hope LO feels better asap.
((hugs))

Life is beautiful!
I think those are some real problems... and tough ones, too. I hope things line up for you soon.... funks are no fun.
Big hugz, and a nice big bowl of chocolate mousse to boot! ;-)
