Upstate NY Babies

it's wednesday, can we whine?

I need this today.

 

I'm starting to get really anxious about the new baby coming.  I don't feel ready at all, and DH hasn't been much of a help because he's been so busy.  Then on top of that, i'm just exhausted and by the time 9 o'clock rolls around he wants to hangout and watch TV and I just want to go to sleep.  So I get a guilt trip from him. I don't feel like we've seen eachother in a couple of weeks, but I can't help that feel so crappy!  BLAH!

Re: it's wednesday, can we whine?

  • We're going to Pittsburgh Friday for a wedding, leaving the kids at MILs. I'm super excited to have a good dinner, some drinks and SLEEP.

    Buuuuuut... my dream of a nice quiet roadtrip were squashed when my mom asked to ride with us. I love her but she's hyper... never shuts up. ever. and can get on my nerves pretty easy,especially when all I want to do is be in a quiet car for just one time. Plus she's a heavy smoker- she would never dream of smoking in my van but it's that after-smoke stink I hate on people.

    Also, I have nothing to wear. I had lost all my baby weight with the twins by like 6 weeks, then another 10lbs by 3 mths pp. Now I've gained about 13 of those lbs back. I think it was still eating like I was bf'ing once I stopped and partly emotionally eating b/c of all the sleep deprevation/possible depression w/ the twins. I haven't been this fat in years yet I just can't get back on the m.f'ing wagon. I literally cried my eyes out when I tried on my choices for dresses to wear.

  • I have a problematic employee (totally unprofessional that I just wrote that) and was notified today she would be out until December (at least).  Part of me is overjoyed that I don't have to deal with her but my work load increased.  I also think something is incredibly fishy about the entire situation.

    I'm actually bothered about who was voted in for my town.  I'm pretty liberal but I have major issues with how he lived his life less than 10 years ago....so sketchy.  I voted so I did my part now I just have to suck it up and deal.

  • I wish my workplace was more professional and less like highschool. I hated highschool and I really feel like the backstabbing and talking behind others backs is for teenagers. Grow up people, lifes not that horrible.

    and

    my period has completed ceased to exist. Going to the doctor in early December to see what the deal is. I'm thinking our chances for #2 are dwindling. Blood work keeps coming back with inconclusive numbers. I'm ready to just KNOW and move on to whatever path is given to us. If B's are only child, then I'll accept that and enjoy every second I can with her. But it's those damn "what if's" that linger in the back of my mind that are bound to drive me crazy.

  • My kid-less friends just don't get it.  My part-time job starts next week and one of my friends told me that she's jealous because I "get to sleep late" and "do nothing during the day" now.  WTF!  Really?  My kid doesn't sleep past 5:30am!  And do nothing?  haha!  My whine is that I might need a bottle of wine if my friends keep it up!!!  LOL!
  • Lorenzo has a fever of 102- so he's miserable and I'm trying to keep him from the baby...he just wants to be held and he cries when I have to feed X...

    the kid has not been sick in his almost 2 years of life but now when his little brother is 3 weeks old and mommy is getting no sleep ....

    :::off for more coffee::

  • I think that I have fall allergies, that I have not had before.  Ugh!  I am thankful that each little guy only got up once last night...A actually put himself right back to sleep, as the night before they had me up every.single.hour, between the 2 of them and DH was working so we could not even divide and conquer.

  • i just want to cry.  dh has no job leads nothing. zero. zilch. zip.  I'm not sure if his unemployment will run out at the end of this month or if he can get an extension. i will be so p!ssed if he can't extend when other people have been on it for 99 weeks.  I hate when people say there are jobs out there.  Minimum wage jobs will not pay our bills let alone daycare costs.  He needs a professional job with a salary.  I know I am asking for a lot but he needs a normal 9-5 job since we have noone to help us if he had to work nights or weekends. 

    I'm tired. I have 4 hours of sleep from last night and I have to be at work at 6am tomorrow.  I thought I would get to leave early tomorrow since i went to work 2 hours early yesterday but nope I am going to end up staying 1 1/2 hours later.  Then I saw my schedule for the week after thanksgiving and I am scheduled for 53 hours which really means I will work 57 or so.  Right now it just doesn't feel like it's worth it.  I consider the month of decemeber how I earn my bonus.  well a bonus is no fun if you have to pay bills or normal stuff.

    I hate having a negative outlook.  I know there is a chance that dh can have a job by Christmas heck there is even a chance he will have one by Thanksgiving and things will be better  but deep down I feel like we are going to lose everything.

    ***huge hugs to you Julie!** I'm sorry that you guys are going through this, I can't even imagine.

    My whine is that since going back to work I just constantly feel like I am drowning and can't keep up with everything that needs to get done -- schoolwork, housework, bills...I just feel like I can never get ahead. Oh and I *hate* that I have no bump time anymore...I miss you ladies!!
