I'm in zombie mode today. Once I fell asleep, I slept hard but I kept having jacked up dreams. I don't feel rested at all.

But Girl discovered her Bible for the first time today. She keeps bringing it to me and signing "book." It's about the cutest thing ever.

I'm also exhausted. I think I need to get back on the B12's

I let Bailey play with my phone yesterday. NBD right? Until 1:13am when my alarm went off. She set one for 2:52am too!

How's your little one feeling @mbm1983?

ETA - probably should've checked the other thread first... lol. glad to hear she was doing ok this morning!

I've been writing a business plan and thinking about opening a little etsy shop to sell my homemade soaps and a few other things. I was really excited about it, until I spent a little time looking at comparable stuff on etsy and those sellers are very hard core! Their packaging alone looks expensive, and it's like $6 for a bar of soap. I really don't think I have what it takes to hang with them, so instead I think I'll start small and local!

It is way to hot here today! i am so sick of the heat! At least we got our air conditioner fixed so it wont be so hot at home later when I get there!

A coworker of mine asked me, just me, to meet her for happy hour today. She isn't even in the office on Mondays. I'm nervous she's going to tell me she's quitting. Or it could just be that she missed me since I was out last week. But yay for happy hour!!

@BabyCarryingVessel, i was talking to my SIL yesterday and a local store offered to sell her salsa for her if she wanted.

Maybe you could partner up with a small local shop like that? Or look into farmers markets or vendor fairs to sell at? just some ideas. business partnerships are hard to get started sometimes!

my sister sets up a booth at a local vendor fair and does okay some days, and others not so good. but the cost of the booth is only like $20 so it's not a huge risk.

yes yes yes! This crossed my mind too! I have lots of connections with little shop owners in several towns and I'm going to ask some of them if I can sell some items and give them a commission. My original idea was to make custom burlap crafts, like bunting flags and stenciled framed burlap sayings and sell them along with soap, but then I realized working with the public probably isn't my thing, especially since they could give me a bad review!

@cmarie79 holy hell! How scary!! You said he's fine...how are YOU? ((Hugs))

StefanieM522 · July 2014

@cmarie79 how scary! So glad that he is okay after all of that! How are you and him holding up? Huge hugs to you momma!

Sillygirl85 · July 2014

@cmaire79 I am glad that your son is okay!

stephcarter · July 2014

@cmarie79‌ OMG poor kid!!! I'm happy to hear he's ok but that's so scary. And he must've been terrified, and you must've been terrified!!! I hope you're both able to get some rest.

And why are you apologizing?! That's what we are here for! Hugs!

My coworker is leaving

I definitely cried a little when she told me. It's an amazing opportunity and I'm really so happy for her, but she's like my fave. She'll still be super close by, so we'll still have our lunch dates.

wesleycrusher · July 2014

@cmarie79 holy shit!! glad he is okay!!

@cmarie79‌
Holy balls, how scary. I'm glad he's ok and his reaction wasn't bad. I would have flipped right out, I hope you're ok too.

Rachelilly23 · July 2014

@cmarie79‌ Glad he's ok!

I have the biggest headache and nausea going on. I stopped taking my anxiety med 10 days ago but am still going through withdrawal. It sucks, especially the vertigo. I'm really weepy lately too. I needed to get off it though since I think it's what was keeping me from losing weight. But really, every emotion that was masked by that medication for 6 months is now pouring out my eyeballs.

I was irrationally annoyed with my coworker today. The thermostat in our hospital is set at 72. I think that's pretty reasonable. We have a window unit in our office, which is generally off, you know, cause 72 is normal. It's 90 out today and this chick comes in wearing a hoodie. And turns the window unit to 55. So I was forced to say dude, WTF, the rest of us don't need to freeze just because you can't dress for the weather. Oy.

Rachelilly23 · July 2014

@scrumpfy‌ That's not irrational at all! I hope you said something to her.

stephcarter · July 2014

@Rachelilly23‌ whyd you stop the meds? Just out of curiosity. I feel like I need anxiety meds back. The Zoloft was giving me terrible esophageal spasms so I stopped.

Rachelilly23 · July 2014

@stephcarter‌ After doing the research online it seemed like a lot of people were gaining weight on it. I didn't gain weight, but I was stuck at the same weight for quite awhile even with a good diet and intense exercise. That was also a common thing. So since I have 24 lbs to lose before H gets home and I didn't think the med was doing so much for me anymore, I decided to quit. I saw my acupuncturist 5 days ago and she helped ease some of the symptoms.

scrumpfy · July 2014

I doubt it got to 55 in the office, but it was chilly. I did say something, cause seriously dude, wtf?

scrumpfy · July 2014

So I'm friends w this couple who share their Facebook account. They are in the process of separating/ divorcing and STILL share the account. Today they were fighting with each other on that account. It was hilarious. But confusing. These are the kind of people I stay friends with for the entertainment.

CnAnA · July 2014

@scrumpfy‌ wooooow. You'd think one of them would be smart enough to change the password...

Sillygirl85 · July 2014

I was hoping to avoid my high school 10 year reunion, but unfortunately someone decided to do an informal reunion and start a facebook group. Yuck! I have unfollowed it at this point so I don't have to see it.

<------------ This girl hated high school.

CnAnA · July 2014

I don't worry about anyone else getting Girl's name for electronic communications. Alice isn't terribly common and our last name is very much not common. She'll be ok. Lol

CnAnA · July 2014

I'm gonna brag about my chatty cathy kid. Including her signs, she knows 48 words.

that doesn't include the ones she will repeat once then never use again. My kid's a genius. Tomorrow she will start calculus. Totes.

Rachelilly23 · July 2014

@cmarie79‌ I totally appreciate what you said. Not crossing a line at all. Here's the thing though. I generally feel very healthy and active. I can run a half marathon. I can really push myself and sweat it out during workouts. I can keep up with the boys. I can hold a plank for 60 seconds. I just feel like I'm trapped in this body that doesn't fit the activity level I'm at. And it's so frustrating and harmful to my confidence.

I feel that physically I am pretty fit. Getting to my goal weight on the scale that reflects my fitness will be one of the greatest victories in my life. I just really think it'll be so much more satisfying than burying my feelings by medicine.
