Vents!

Too much venting to be done to include randoms and AWs. Sorry!!

DH put DD's water bottle in her backpack this morning and didn't screw the top on all the way...cue the great flood of 2013. EVERYTHING is wet. Now, to a normal kid that wouldn't be the biggest deal in the world. To DD, who HATES for anything to go wrong, her teacher to be mad, etc. she lost her shit. Then DH got mad at us, bc when he does something wrong he gets embarrassed and doesn't process his emotions the right way like a big boy. Ugh, worst 20 minutes of my week right there. So, the entire contents of a 4th grade notebook {which is their whole life this year} is spread out all over my kitchen with me hoping it will dry so I don't have to go have her teacher make labels for everything again and I'm on my way to the store to buy more notebook paper, a new unsoaked copy of the book she is reading for a project and a fucking water bottle with a better top. I hate that damn water bottle anyway.

  • Night before last DS decided 2:30-5:30 a.m. was party time. This morning he decided to be up for the day at 5:00. Still trying to decide which is worse...

  • Dd was up all.night.long trying to poo and fussing. She finally got the poo out (praise Jesus) and is happy as a clam like nothing happened. Meanwhile I'm a miserable bitch and snapping at everyone. How can kids not sleep at all and still be pleasant? I wish I had that skill.

  • DH didn't drink his coffee yesterday and left it in the pot. He made more coffee this morning still without emptying the pot. Fresh out of the shower, I'm trying to clean up the coffee puddle while he gets the counter, then we both tackle the wall with a little coffee river running down. I seriously need a one cup auto thing instead. This isn't the first time.

  • Your DH sounds like mine...today he's running around like crazy packing his lunch, forgot to zip the lunch bag, picked it up...cue spilling said lunch and DH leaving in a tizzy. Maybe the maniacal laughter on my part didn't help....
  • Ugh, sorry Kate. That's so lame :( 

    So, I'm throwing up a fair amount. And somehow I've managed to pull a muscle in my back with all the constant heaving over the toilet bowl. And now I can't make any sudden movements, pick up DD, sneeze, cough, laugh, or really even stand straight without it hurting like the bejeezers, and every time I think it's getting better, I have another puke fest and re-pull it. Frick.

  • He apologized to everybody and told me to buy myself something pretty. LOL He also kissed DD's ass on the way to drive her to the front door of school. His excuse was that he very rarely does anything wrong, so he doesn't know how to handle it correctly. Yes, he was kidding and yes I rolled my eyes.
  • Huh...buy something pretty...::taking notes::

  • I reeeeeeally want a coach tote...really. What's on your list? ;)
  • Kate, your H sounds like mine. He would have gotten mad at me for buying a defective water bottle. The other day he needed me to find a document I had scanned so he could upload it. I couldn't find it right away because the stupid scanner had created a folder within the folder I put it in. Anyway, H gets all indignant and asks why I can't just remember where I saved it. So, I ask him if he knows how to use the scanner. His response, No, but I'm sure I could figure it out and I would remember where I saved things. Ok, you do that then!

  • With DD sick, I've been losing my patience a lot. I yelled at DH a lot last night, and this morning I'm not even sorry.

  • I opened the fridge to find that someone had spilled my container of water with orange and lemon slices everywhere. Instead of cleaning it up, they left the giant puddle and put the pitcher back. WTF. I'm hoping that it was DS1 and not DH.

    DS2 had a tantrum in Target today because he wanted pull ups with the cowboy (Toy Story) and I was buying store brand. I told him that he could put one of his million toy story stickers on them when we got home and kept walking.

    Ut oh...That could cause a lot of trouble around here (thinking new purse, ring, etc...)
    Hallelujah, it's a miracle, I have children AND a signature!

    Oh that was the pic on Instagram. That sucks. I'd have similar emotions to her so I totally get it.
    Yes, there was more on the other counters I didn't post. LOL Thank goodness it all seems to be drying and the Solar System notebook that is for a grade is only half wrinkled. :)
  • I ordered some maternity stuff from Gap and ON {which you can't buy in person here} on the 9th got an email that it shipped on the 12th via 2 day shipping...checked yesterday and it says it's "initiated" and in Ohio, but that's all...WTF? I need jeans! I called today and they said they'd look into and it would be at the most 72 hours...WTF?

    I'm a bitter betty you're only needing maternity jeans now. I pulled them out at like five minutes pregnant with dd. I was a massive beast while pregnant.

  • Oh...I just haven't had any. :) I don't wear jeans during the summer! It's too damn hot here.
  • DS2 is teething and has a cold and was in full scale meltdown mode all morning until nap time. Also, he can pull himself up and not get back down, so the second I walk away to do something, he stands up and then screams bloody murder because he's stuck and can't follow me.

    Then I got a call from the school saying DS1 was off the walls... Cue me realizing I had forgot to give him his medication first thing, because of being preoccupied with the worlds most miserable 9 month old. So I had to run over to the school with Grumpy Gus to drop that off. THEN I find out he told the teacher he didn't have breakfast, so they gave him an apple and a nutrigrain bar. Bullshit, kid. You had a heaping bowl of cereal in front of you before I even got to the table. Way to try and make me look bad.

    DH broke the top of the refillable basket holder thingy for the keurig and my last sip of coffee was full of grounds.

    I just tripped over the dog, while holding the baby and either sprained or broke my toe. Shit waffles, it hurts. (baby is fine, super mom kicked in and twisted)

    Ugh, I'm sorry. I sprained my ankle tripping over one of ds's toys when I was 7 months pregnant. Not a pleasant time. Minus the sore toe how is 2u2 treating you?

    @KC_13 it's not so bad. H is home through next Wednesday, so we're just plugging along. So far Bean is a crazy easy baby, which helps. We'll see how I feel when it's just me and the kids.

    Good to hear. Hope both the kids are as cooperative when dh gets back to work. :)

  • I hate the mood I am in today. Everyone and everything is annoying me. I just want to go to Glen Ivy by myself and stay there for the rest of the day.

  • I was so tired last night at like 9, but stayed up until 10. Crawled into bed, can't sleep. Then a thunderstorm came through and since I was awake, I probably went to the bathroom 3 times. I only took a half an hour nap today and am still tired but I want to be able to fall asleep tonight.

  • I am getting a pedicure done and the chair is uncomfortable, the girl doing it isn't trying to have a conversation with me and he music is quiet so it just seems awkward. So now i am bumping and feel like i am coming across as a snob. I only get like 1 pedicure a year and always disappointed.

  • DS2 is still being a miserable beast.

    We unhooked and put away the A/C two days ago, and of course, it's hot today. That alone makes me cranky.

    SD sprayed something in her hair (i suspect the cheap glitter body spray her sister bought her), it's all sticky and nasty feeling and she's all pissy now because I checked her over with the lice comb and it kept sticking and pulling her hair. Boo freaking hoo. Don't put crap in your hair then.

    DS1 didn't clean his room properly (tried the ol' stuff everything under the bed/in the closet) and now HE'S being an ahole too because I won't let him go out and play until its done.

    DH texted and said he needs a nap when he gets home. I need to cook dinner. DS2 screams his head off if I'm not holding him. I can't deal with that shit while I'm cooking. We were also supposed to walk the canal but DH's "naps" always last 2+ hours plus like half an hour to wake up, and I end up doing everything alone. On bath night (like tonight) that's super fun. I kinda feel like being a bitch and saying fuck your nap, I have shit to do.

    It all seems so stupid now that I'm reading it, but right now I kinda just want to go cry into a glass (bottle) of wine. Just a crappy evening.

  • Reese hasn't been sleeping this week. She never had problems sleeping--waking up once in the middle of the night. (I suspect bad dreams) but now she is a mess going to bed---she is becoming the world's best two year old staller. So last night she finally passed out at 9:30, woke up at 1:30 and was up for the day at 6. 

    I don't know what it is--extra hungry growth spurt? dreams? separation? Whatever it is it has put her in a horrible mood and me miserable.

  • DD had allergy testing done today because she has had a rash on and off for a couple weeks. Sometimes it looks likes hives sometimes it doesn't. Well she is not allergic to anything so they sent us for blood work to check a bunch of other stuff. She is terrified of the hospital so she cried the whole way there and the entire hour we waited to register for outpatient services. Those people were so damn slow and half of them were not even registering people. I was so pissed. Then DD refused to pee in a cup and it took 3 of us to hold her still so they could draw enough blood to fill 6 tubes. It was AWFUL! I felt so bad for her but frustrated she was acting like that too. I am glad it is over but now we wait 2 weeks to get results. they tested her kidneys and liver and for an autoimmune disorder and we have to wait forever. Ugh. This mommy is slightly in panic mode.

  • Yuck! I'm sorry Jnks. How long will it take to get back the lab work? Did they tell you what they are looking for?

    The dr said most of the results will
    Be back in a week but 1 of them takes 2 weeks. The waiting may kill me because they scared the shit of me with the possibilities. An auto immune disorder is what he says is the most likely but it could be her kidneys or liver(he used some medical terms I don't remember). They are also looking for any inflammation in her body. They did a CBC also.
