@Cricket81 That is a good idea. We'll have to try suggesting that.
@majwv8 He does not remember, being a guy and 10 years ago. I had no clue about it. She handed it to us a few years ago after she had it in forbearance for forever.
Thanks for the advice everyone. There isn't any more forbearance left and it is already on a graduated payment plan (which sucks because it is only going to get worse.) They definitely have the money to pay for it and can afford it. But I know if we don't pay it, we will end up not having a relationship with them.
I feel like I accomplished a lot today. I think I may pull out the scrapbook while I watch the Bachelorette.
Are you going to document your productive day?
hmmm. Woke H up and drove him to his car from his rough night. Got work done and actually reached people I was calling for work. Picked up my prescription, and scheduled my next appt. Got to my meeting early. My MIL was late for drop off so I got more work done, and some stuff from the store. PDQ on the way home, then vacuumed the floors and put some laundry away. Boom.

I'm sure you know, but that was totally TIC.
What is TIC???
I pretty sure it means tongue in cheek. I sort of said I accomplished a lot and am pulling out the scrapbook. So it seems I am pulling it out to write all I have done (documenting my day). Am I right? It took me a minute to realize how else it could be read.
I hate packing. And I'm not even halfway done ugh. I'm calling it quits for the night and hopefully I can get it all done in time tomorrow before we leave! I am excited to get away for a few days even if it's for my sisters college orientation and Alex won't be there to help with Grayson.
@34blondie Sometimes. He's been all over the place with his schedule lately. Some nights we just have one quick wake up, and others we are up a couple times or a really long time. His napping has been really unpredictable too. Sunday he took one 3 hour nap, but yesterday he took 2 that were both less than 45 minutes. I think I am also going to read the No Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers that was mentioned yesterday and see if I can figure him out a bit more.
Tl;dr We are sleeping better, but still not great.
B woke up crying in the middle of the night, and I fell back asleep instead of going to him (I woke up again like 15 mins later and he wasn't crying). When I went in to get him after he woke up this morning, he was totally soaked with pee. So, mom of the year here.
Not cool, @winesconstantly I hope there are multiple naps in your future.
Ok @kdc2007 and @wasnotwas I remember the two of you doing a cleanse of some kind not too long ago. Was it miserable and awful? Did you notice a difference? Lose any weight? Would you do it again? What kind did you do? I want all the answers
@tiffletons518 I did a Suja cleanse. It's expensive, like $9 a bottle and you are supposed to drink 6 a day. I wound up only doing like one and a half of a 3 day cleanse only because it was more to reset my head than anything. I can give you my opinion on each juice, but I have a pallet of a pre schooler so there were only like 3 that I liked.
It was not miserable or awful at all. I could have gone longer, I just didn't need to. I'm going to probably do a one day once a month as a diet reset.
I lost 3 lbs but have lost 6 lbs since then because it really did reduce my appetite and shift my way of thinking about food (at the end I was actually craving healthy stuff and now I know I have options other than crap food)
Happy Birthday @WasNotWas! Enjoy that Margarita! (or two, or three...)
Did anyone watch the housewives of Jersey? I was really sick of it last season because I was tired of watching the Teresa/ Melissa feud. I do not know how I feel about the new ladies, but I am certainly going to give it a try. Also, did Teresa and Joe Guidicis get a new PR person? They are acting like new (sane and decent) people in this first episode. I was not impressed with this episode but the season trailer looks like this will be a drama filled season with lots and lots of fights.
Trying to get Alex out of bed on his day off it like pulling teeth. I need him to take Grayson to his parents house so I can finish packing, shower, and clean up the house a bit. He also has to take my brothers friend back home an hour away and be back by 1:30. Come on dude! We got things to do today! Oh and it's 55 degrees outside. Soooo glad I was able to find Grayson some pants yesterday!!
@tiffletons518, I used to do the cayenne lemon cleanse pretty regularly and I would always loose a good 5-7 pounds and then try to eat healthy smaller portions because it does shrink your stomach. I usually did it if I was trying to look good for a beach weekend or something. You can find the exact recipe on line but its just water with a ton of lemons, maple syrup( organic grade and cayenne pepper just add more or less depending on how spicy you like things. I would mix up a huge pitcher of it and keep it in the fridge and drink it all day. I think another name for it is the master cleanse.
It was lots of fun. Ben is so big and adorable he made the biggest mess with his cake. They had a cute circus party. She's been so busy starting a new job but I will tell her the J13 says HI. :-h

I saw the pictures on Facebook. The party looked like a ton of fun! And Ben is just so dang adorable!
@mcbush, I brought LO to all my gyno appointments he would sit in his stroller and I would feed him goldfish. But my office is usually pretty quick in and out.
Scheduled my first prenatal appointment yesterday. Man .. I forgot about the whole complication of "find a baby sitter" part to watch my 1 year old. Doh. I was thinking - I only work part time this should be easy to get in! Except on my days off, my "baby sitter" (MIL) works at the office so... yeah! #stmprobz.
For normal routine heart beat checks, I think I can just bring her with me, but this will be a pelvic, possible ultrasound, and possible pap smear. I can't guarantee she'll be entertained that whole time. Thoughts? Always get a baby sitter? or just bring her with?
This is my advice FWIW @mcbush, always have a sitter or someone with you when you have the regular check ups. For the U/S's, don't even have her in the room with you. My LO always wants to cling to me when we get in the room (even with a helper) so it makes the appointment less enjoyable. I don't mind it so much when it's just the Doppler, but I don't plan on having her in the room at my next U/S. Can you schedule your appointments on work days and go after work while you have a sitter?

If she missed payments or paid late I wouldn't pay any of those fees.
