    starting out on monday this tired is not a good idea it's gonna be a long week. i mentioned a few weeks ago that my sis was having a biopsy and yes, it is breast cancer confirmed. she has to see the radiation doc this week and have surgery on friday. i'm going with her to both and she is going to recover the weekend with my brother and SIL.

    i have to give a 1.5 hr training starting in 30 min but i heard that the trainees are interested in rescheduling. Hmmm. Tempting.

  • I too did not get enough sleep last night.

    I am working on mind numbing work this week.

    I started my diet today. Enough is enough and this weight has to come off. I wish I was one of those BF moms whose weight just melt off, but nope.

    I'm starting to remember why I swore we were done having kids when DD was about 4 months. My great sleeping happy baby has been replaced by a DS who no longer sleeps unless attached to me.
    e


    Yup. For sure I am done!

  • Today is day 1 of a 20 day sprint wherein I only have one day off, Memorial Day. I'm working all of this weekend and all of next weekend. The hours are crazy and exhaustion level is high. This is part of my job so it's not like its a surprise, but it is my first year going through this with a baby. My only goal is to make it through this without crying everyday. Not off to a good start.

  • If I have to hear one more SAHM or teacher talk about how they have the summer off and can't wait to just nest and clean up the house and get ready for the baby ONE MORE time.... Ugh. Shut your pie hole. I would love to have summers off to do this. But I work.

    End Rant.

  • Add me to the little sleep list. This morning she was up at 5:45, yesterday morning up at 5:00. I guess her sleeping in until 7:30 on Saturday was a fluke.

    My house is a total mess and I have no desire to clean it. My H refuses to agree with getting a cleaning person. I am thinking about doing it anyway and not telling him. I WFH so it's totally believable if I tell him I am cleaning on X day before starting work.

    I am already getting a headache.

    The new coffee I got is gross.

    - DS cried for me - a lot - when I dropped him off this morning

    - Our regular DCP is on vacation so SIL is filling in. It has been really stressful and she greeted me this morning with "I'm really sick. I hope your DS doesn't get it."

    - Opposing counsel yelled at me in the courthouse hallway this morning over something truly stupid and then made a bunch of threats he can't back up. All I could think was "This is dumb. I can't believe I left my crying toddler to come here and listen to this crap."

    - I really should not leave work early today. I've been doing that too often. But I am dying to get out of here.

    - DH made me completely furious yesterday and I'm still not really over it. We need a new car badly and he refuses to admit that. Every time I bring it up he initially agrees but eventually comes back around to suggesting I drive the 15 year old car I currently have for one or two more years. It is not in good condition or reliable and I drive a lot for work. I want to scream. 

     

    I actually think I may cry at my desk today.

  • Sorry to hear about your sister, Jc&cat. Hoping for the best for her. My very petty vents: my stomach was really upset yesterday. i thought it was better, but it's back again today. i can't figure out if it's a bug or something I ate. Yuck. We're having a party for DS's birthday this weekend and only 3 kids have said they can come. I know a lot of people are out of town, but I haven't even heard from a bunch of people and it's really annoying. I hope he's not disappointed if it's a small party.

    so sorry to hear this! Hoping the treatments go easy on her and work better than expected!

    Didn't you also have a test or am I thinking of another momma?

  • I have to go grocery shopping at some point..

     My husband used my truck twice this weekend and never stopped for gas..

    I have dieted for a week and lost half a lb.. I'm tempted to just cut a limb off to see results quicker.. or shave my head-look how well Brittany has bounced back. ;)

    I am sick, so is DS. He must have caught it from the backup day care we used last week. and I must have caught it from him. I already plan to call off sick tomorrow from work. Already called and cancelled daycare for that day. It sounds bad, but I feel horrible and could use a day of rest.

    I went to the gym and did cardio for 25 minutes and weight lifted for another 30. nbsp;I come into work and there is literally 100 donuts in the break room from the weekend's graduation festivities. nbsp;I had one. nbsp;And only one. nbsp;I don't plan on going back down that side of the hallway for the rest of the day.nbsp;


    Good for you, Kiki. Donuts are my kryptonite. Pretty sure I'd be eating off that donut buffet all day long.

    I also started my diet today. Here's to hoping the sleep deprivation doesn't make the cravings unbearable

    Another dieter here!  Mine is a doctor-prescribed elimination diet.  Basically, I can't eat anything good...even in moderation.  :)  We're hoping to get rid of my eczema, which has been out of control for 6 months now.  Weight loss would be a nice side effect considering I have at least 30 lbs to lose.  :)

    thanks for saying :) Small steps to hopefully a full recovery start this week.

  • I have a really complicated friendship with a co-worker and it is EXHAUSTING. She is so moody and bitchy a lot but then reels me back in with her softer side, just to smack me right back down again. I know she talks about me behind my back, she acts stand-offish around me sometimes, but then she talks about others to me...etc. I feel obligated to be her friend but I'm just trying to figure out how to distance myself appropriately so I can get off this roller coaster with her.

  • 1) I am dealing with a 'too many cooks in the kitchen' situation on a major project and it is annoying the poop out of me, and of course making everything take 10 times as long, especially when 90% of these cooks dont even know WTF they are talking about, they are just "involved" so they look important. Blah.

    2) I am cranky and need a cookie. Hormones be damned.

    3) I get to POAS this weekend/early next week. I kinda want to do it now for my sanity, but dont want to be disappointed if its negative and am making myself wait.

    I hear you on the elimination diet. We took 6 week oldDD to the emergency room on Friday for diarrhea and they said she might have allergic colitis. They took me off dairy, but didn't tell me what I can and can't eat, so I'm going off what the net says. Pedi office won't call me back when I left a message at 8 am. This weekend MIL made me feel like crap for going back to work in 3 weeks while simultaneously making me feel bad for not being comfortable leaving baby with them. So I'm a bad mom for leaving my baby and not leaving my baby at the same time.

    I'm late, but I have a few...

    We are moving next week. We closed on the new house, and DH spent the entire weekend working over there, leaving me with our 3.5 yo and 2 month old all weekend. Alone. No breaks. I'm still on ML, so I spent all day today racing around doing errands and packing. It will be like this for the next 2 weeks, and then I go back to work. 

    Oh, and DH is pissed at me because I was running errands tonight with DD2, and she started screaming before I was done. So I brought her home and ran back out. DH was pissed that I "dumped" a screaming infant on him and he had to wait to eat his dinner. Um... I barely ate at all over the weekend, not to mention all of the nights spent by myself with the 2 kids over the past 8 weeks while he was traveling. 

     Oh, and once my move is complete, I'm with you all on the diet. You'd think that never actually eating meals would help, but I haven't dropped any weight since the initial post-baby loss right after delivering. Oh, and I think this baby officially destroyed my body. I look awful, and I don't think I'm ever going to recover. 

     Whew!
