Re: Monday Morning Vents

  • I'm tired. Like really tired and hungry for fatty food. I almost wish I stopped for a breakfast burrito this a.m. because I think my mind will be occupied on food until I'm satisfied.

    DD1 had a melt down this a.m. because XH took her jacket home last Friday. Her classroom was cold this a.m.. This is the 3rd jacket he took home and has not returned.

    I have a pile of paperwork on my desk and I'm not ready to start the day.

  • MIL is still in town.  Not sure what she's planning to do since DH and I are both working and LO is in DC all day...at least she's headed home tomorrow, but don't know why she's not just leaving today.
  • I am mad at myself for not getting my act together with meal planning. Another Monday where I leave for work with nothing prepped or planned for dinner. And of course I am exhausted because the kids are sleeping horribly, so the thought of spending 2 hours in the kitchen after the kids are in bed tonight is not appealing.
    DS born 8/8/09 and DD born 6/12/12.
  • I'm tired.  Really tired.  DD2 is teething, and the weekend was tough.  She slept very badly Saturday and Sunday nights, which meant she was extra clingy and fussy yesterday, and she's been an asshole when she wakes up in the middle of the night.  She'll scream until she's picked up, and then try so hard to stay awake when you're holding her.  It's been a tough few nights on everyone, and I'm feeling particularly bad because I'm not only tired but guilty about calling my little love an asshole (even if it fits).  I wish I could be more patient.  And I wish Starbucks would deliver a pumpkin spice latte to my desk.
  • This weekend went wayyyy too fast. Like, I have no idea where it went fast.

    Work is going to be crazy this week.

    I am still stressed about DS2's infant room.

    Sigh. Is it Friday yet?

  • I want another coffee. Specifically, I want a $4 mocha but I did the math last week and am embarrassed and horrified by how much DH & I have spent on buying coffee, tea, lunch, meals out, and ordering in since he started his new job. We are going to squander the benefits of his new salary if we don't nip this in the bud now. So, we're on a one week "cleanse" of eating out; this week we're only eating and drinking out of our own kitchen. So no mocha for me. 

    I've ordered a kettle to keep at my desk for my 2nd & 3rd coffee cravings of the day. It arrives tomorrow. On the plus side, my taco salad that I brought for lunch looks awesome.

  • @kdc2007 Buy a cold, canned soft drink.  Hold the cold can to your eyes for about 5 mins per eye.  Instant de-puffer.  I speak from experience.  Good luck at your interview!
  • I was running too late for my normal bus this morning.  Then I missed the next two because they left early.  I was running through the park and ride to get to the bus when it pulled away.  Then I had to stand there for another 15 minutes.  Minor annoyance, yes, but still not my favorite way to start my Monday.   

     

  • Our kitchen remodel, which they promised us would be done by the end of August is looking like it will take at least another week. I'm tired of Cheerios for dinner and washing bottles in the bathroom. It will be worth it in the end, but I'm annoyed with the process in the mean time.

  • No motivation at my job today..or any day for that matter. Had such a relaxing,chill weekend with LO that seemed to go by in a matter of minutes. Only 5 hours to go! Whoo!

  • Ugh Monday.  :(  I have no desire to be at work - I have a personal to-do list a mile long that is on my mind and it's not helping the situation that I have absolutely nothing to do at work today.  This day needs to end soon.

  • I'm in the tired group as well-
    I mean super tired. I woke up at 1:30 am last night for no reason and couldn't fall back asleep. And then DD3 woke up at 5 and I had to get up for work.
    Plus I way over booked myself and the kids this weekend, so I felt like we did way too much running around and no relaxing. And my house is a mess and I hate that.
    Plus, DH got so annoyed last night when I was too tired to have sex- I know- TMI!, but seriously- don't act like a baby about it.
  • H's work schedule changed and before he used to be up and out the door before 5am - so mornings were all on me.  Now he doesn't have to be there until 8 but he still just got up, showered, got himself ready and left.  He didn't help me with the kids or dogs or anything at all.  Just b/c I can do it doesn't mean it's going to all be on me every day buddy!  We will be having words tonight.

  • DAycare is part of a larger 'campus' that goes all the way to high school. Dropping DS off in the morning is a nightmare. It took 30 minutes today, and I yelled at the parking guide guy after be tried to direct me to a lot in the far back corner. It's traffic from the elementary school, but I get stuck in it going to the daycare. It's a 40 minute window of chaos there.
    Then, the teachers in his new class didnt greet him and we've been gone for a week. Way to make my kid feel welcome and loved!!!
    I'm so almost done there...but we want him to go to elementary there:(
