DS just looked up at me with the sweetest smile while nursing
...and then I realized it was because he was peeing all over me and the pillow. Nice one kid.
Also I'm pretty sure our toilet is broken. We used quadruple the water we usually do yesterday according to the online meter thing, and it was making funny noises.
What kind of supplies do you need? The Facebook group "Medical Supply Exchange" is a great resource.
He needs supplies for his kidney dialysis cycler machine (I'm sure there is a true name). He has manual dialysis supplies but they are supposed to be for emergencies, like if something is wrong with his machine, etc, not just that his nurse didn't order him enough supplies. I just couldn't believe that a nurse would tell a patient that.
I will have to find that FB group! Thanks for the info!
Seriously guys, I don't know what to do with DS. Any recommendations? Books?
The only thing that helps me when I can't get dd back to sleep is the cloud b turtle that projects waves onto the ceiling. It conks her right out. Otherwise maybe the book healthy sleep habits for baby? More wine? Hard liquor? All the coffee???
Wtf. I'm gonna kill MH if he doesn't start acting right. He is eating ALLLLLL the crackers today.
He has this week off work and today he's decided to just do whatever the fuck he pleases without even asking if I need a hand with DS or anything.
I got up, brought DS to the the dr, picked up his rx for antibiotics, have taken care of all of the general childcare, etc (as I normally do), and called the bank to attempt to refinance our car loan for a lower rate. DH has decided that he was gonna sleep until 11am, get up/have coffee, make a batch of maple syrup, and he just put his coat on and went outside to putz around/tinker a bit.
Honestly, I'd be fine with it if he just fucking took the time to ask me if I needed a break or something. I realize if he were at work, this would be business as usual. But wtf dude...you're off work for a week. Pitch in with our kid a little. Why is it that on his time off he gets to do fun recreational stuff, but any time off I get is usually spent doing boring household shit or necessary errands?
Ugh. I was seriously hit with the bitch stick today. Thanks, AF.

I feel your pain @MrsT0154. I would love for my husband to recognize my feelings about certain things, but, well, ya know. I try to not be a bitch and kill the situation with kindness. It's very hard, because I'm stubborn, but it works. Good luck!
My house is a mess. Every time I try to clean my kids make a HUGE mess somewhere else. I am on day 5 of DH being gone and my kids are annoying me to no end. I just cracked a bottle of wine bc I might have an epic meltdown otherwise. I just want the house to be clean when DH comes home tomorrow, fuuuuuuucccckkkkk
And it snowed. Fuck snow.

I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you., Anywhere, I would have followed you.
It's supposed to rain in Nor Cal tomorrow. Today and the last 2 days I've been in shorts, tees, and sandals. But, I''l pay with 110 degrees this summer. Ick!
Ditto @mrsbutt while he is good about spending time with DD on the weekends he.often pulls the same thing as your DD. I've finally just started making plans and leaving. Plus if it's bad I tell him. Not the best because I'm sure lots of husband's help without being asked, but not all are like that.
Also when I broke down about it one time he told me that I always took her with me etc. That he never realized that I didn't want to always take her.
@mrst0514 Have you told him that you need a break? Some men need to be told hwat you need as they don't recognize it for themselves. If you want some time for yourself, tell him that.
Well he just took DS outside with him, so thats a plus. I guess I feel bad for asking for a break, bc I know he works like a dog at work and only has this week off. But still.
I also know my bitch factor is way up there.. thanks again AF.
Mine is that I took 1.5 hours of vacation time today to be home by 4 for the cable Guy who is scheduled between 4-8. Not sure why I took it off because we all know he wont come till 8.
I already ate dinner (garlic chicken thighs over salad), a chocolate chocolate chip vita top, and a mini Reese's egg. I'm about to dig into some graham crackers with peanut butter...bc I'm apparently a fatty today (and yesterday and the day before). fml.
We had gorgeous blue skies, shining sun and puffy white clouds the other day. Too bad it was in the 20s F and also snowing. That was a total mind fuck.
