I can see clearly now, the SPAM is gone!

kaylakim · August 2014

Good morning ladies! Can't believe there is no SPAM yet today. I hope this means that everyone is getting some sleep.

Today's title is in honor of my vision being super awesome since my LASIK. I was 20/15 last week at my 1 day exam and will go in for a 1 week follow up this afternoon and am expecting the same. For anyone wanting to do this, DO IT!! It was awesome!

beckyanddon · August 2014

Not great but ok sleep here! Up 2x... These developmental shifts suck!

2nd day of school here we come!!

LauraB1016 · August 2014

Allison slept until about 3:30a when her teeth started bothering her. So we slept on the couch for another two hours.

DH sleeps super hard and never hears anything. I guess he freaked out when he got up because he couldn't find me on the house even though he looked my way at least twice.

Hoping for a productive day at work today but only time will tell.

Have a good day ladies!! ~O)

I want LASIK so badly. Putting in and taking out my contacts are my number one least favorite chore. And I hate waking up without contacts and being disoriented.

Do it! It was the strangest 10 minutes of my life but so AWESOME to be able to see!

Good morning!! Productive day of work and school work ahead. Interviewing a new house keeper...

@haddocky I will let you know how it goes

Finishing up coffee number 1...will go for two and then need to be done with coffee for the day.

Had really bad anxiety yesterday...feels like graves symptoms are coming back...dr. appointment on Monday to discuss but I don't wanna change my current dosage because I was feeling so good before...hopefully it is just a one day fluke and I will be fine. However, I got into my patient portal and looked at my lab work and my number changed dramatically from June to now...makes me nervous.

I have a massage scheduled for tomorrow and I totally forgot I have a dentist appointment at the same time to do crown prep. I think I will change the massage to today...hopefully they have an opening. [-O<

kaylakim · August 2014

I think I'm going to cry. I just spent 40+ minutes writing a newsletter to have my computer just freeze abd restart without warning. None of it can be recovered so I guess I need to do it over again. Ugh! And now I hear my kids waking up so this won't be happening. I got up early to do it in silence.

(

YIPPY!!! I got it to recover most of it!!! Hallelujah, seriously.

joyfultrex · August 2014

walked in P's room to find him standing in his crib for the 1st time ever. It's a little thing, but it makes him seem so big.

This is how I feel as well. I'd love to be done with my contacts. Congrats @kaylakim!

@lancomechica hugs! >:D< I hope you end up getting your massage today and hopefully it helps you feel a little bit better.

I don't know if it's the spinning or a fluke, but I've had so much energy this week. Also, my butt finally doesn't hurt so this is a good thing.

It's the spinning!! ;;)

fabk · August 2014

Oh no @kaylakim! Did Word not back it up automatically?

fabk · August 2014

Decent nights sleep but lil man was up for the day at 5:30. Booo.

Kitten80 · August 2014

Sorry @lizabethann06‌ Having to wake sleeping kids is the worst.

LauraB1016 · August 2014

@kaylakim‌

@lizabethann06‌ I totally know your pain. I don't know how you do it with two kids. I think I will lose my mind when the second LO comes.

No coffee in the break room!!! Now I am on a mission!

fabk said:

After much digging around I was able to recover most of it. YAHOO!!!!!! I just needed to add a few things that didn't get recovered.

kaylakim · August 2014

Boo @lizabethann06!! I can't stand waking sleeping babies, it's so hard. It makes me complain way less to have them up and ready for the day at 6.

Clyde013 · August 2014

Morning ladies. I'm trying to let E take a morning nap before we head to daycare. But she's just laying in bed babbling. Here's hoping an extra nap helps her have a better day.

I think someone might have snuck into my house a few nights ago and replaced my toddler with a newborn. This kid is now attached to my boob all the time. So strange!

They took mine too. I lost count of how many times he nursed yesterday but it was at least 12. before this he was down to 3-5 depending on our schedule.

:-h we are currently boycotting most solids and are just wanting milk over here.

giraffeluvspi · August 2014

@kaylakim, I want lasik so bad, but my RX hasn't stopped changing.

@lancomechica Feel better, lady. And good luck with the new housekeeper! Live is so much better with a good "wife" at home.

@econmama if you don't already have them get a pair of nice padded shorts. Aside from that you just need to keep spinning long enough for your ass to go numb. When I bike the magic mark is about 5 miles.

Ditto here. It was insane, I am exhausted today from it.

Caitable25 · August 2014

Good morning!

So changing Liam has been less of wrestling an alligator since he discovered playing with his penis. He will lay there for an hour I swear if I let him. Bad news is when I put the new diaper on and he has no access. Meltdown.

Hope everyone has a great Thursday. Almost the weekend! Wooohooo!!

grapeskittles4lyfe · August 2014

When I go back to work (next Monday....waaaah!!!) I will be working from 8-4:30 so I can do the DC pickup and BF can do drop-off - he works late hours if his experiments require it, and I'm no longer on the research hamster wheel (halleluja!). Problem: when to find time to work out (which I also haven't done during my year of maternity leave, but hey, new beginnings, right?)

@econmama, @pink724, you ladies have inspired me to look for a morning spinning class close to my workplace

@lancomechica‌ I goes your appointment Monday goes well and that you can get your massage!

@muirmaid someone replaced my newborn with a toddler. When did that happen?!

we upped the temp in Reese's room last night and she slept better than she has in two weeks. I think I've been freezing out my baby =((

It has been so chilly here LO is going down in winter jammies and sleep sack. And still chilly. Turning the heat on in middle of summer is a no go. Crazy weatherrr. Glad Reese slept better.

martyn17 · August 2014

@kaylakim so glad the lasik worked great!! J

@lancomechica hope you are able to get the massage moved to today!

Big hugs to all you mamas who are still nursing and have super milk hungry babies these days!

I am sorry I’ve been such a lurky loo lately. Husband has been out of town the last couple days and I have been swamped at work. And Tess has been insanely clingy and cranky. Last night bedtime took about 2 ½ hours and see still woke up at 6:15 this morning despite the late bedtime.

@ChrissieMeas‌ The padded shorts and clip shoes are on a purchase list, but I want to make sure that I'm sticking with it before I get too spendy.

The shoes will change your life. Seriously.

gutsymama · August 2014

I'm trying very hard to be on here today, but so far L is not cooperating....

@econmama this week living in St. Louis makes me feel sick deep down in my soul

gutsymama · August 2014

And, no sleep at our house....MOTN poop followed by massive vomit, and then party time, and then anti-crib cuddles. I was up from 12:30 until 3:30, and then Luke was awake at 5:45

These posts brought to you once again by the big orange trash truck. Thank the Lord for trash day.

ashie624 · August 2014

My co worker is out of town so I am working all day..and today the doc is neutering a goat. Usually he does dogs and cats only. Sometimes rabbits. Something new for me today!

@gutsymama‌ The worst part is that the militarization of our police forces isn't a new trend. Billions has been spent to provide local police departments with tanks, grenades, etc.

Police misconduct is insane and there are some amazing writers, like Radley Balko, who detail it every day.

I think I am more sickened by the discourse, both in and out of the media, that is either completely oblivious to or willfully ignorant of its own racism.

ETA: re: the current situation. Not to downplay militarization of police

gutsymama · August 2014

Luke has been eating breakfast for three hours now, just a little at a time. I am currently cooking the third piece of turkey bacon, and apparently not cooking fast enough because he is yelling "up mom!" at the skillet.

jennipalmer · August 2014

@econmama you must get padded shorts!! They were my saving grace because for awhile (many years back) I was the instructor.

jennipalmer · August 2014

I will try to be brief!! Missed you guys I did lurk a bit but I am behind. So as for me, I had nervous breakdown and ran away to San Diego to relax. In my long weekend away we went to SeaWorld, beach, pool, park and school shopping! My kids (the older ones) told me they see how happy I am in San Diego and I should move back. My pre teen and teenage kids said it will be ok we can, visit lots because it is still close and they love to come to San Diego too! I cried...

So, in the span of this long weekend, we decided I should move, I got a job where a good majority of work can be done from home so I can travel to see kids often (they are even opening office in Vegas that I can help open), we also started looking at homes and put our name on wait list for military housing!! Today I am back in Vegas my DD has high school orientation and they go back to their dads on Friday for 2 weeks. I will be heading back to San Diego to get everything situated for new job, child care and housing. @Rmnam1thank you for all the info! @EAGUIRRE2 it was so busy of weekend but I will be back so I definitely would like to see you both Also, if you guys know babysitter I need a few hours next week to get stuff situated and I don't have him signed up for daycare yet. For last 2 plus years the military has neglected to put any of our kids on page 2 even though we have given them the documents 3 times!!!

ashie624 · August 2014

I am wearing a t shirt and capris and I am frozen. I thought it was supposed to be hot today. Boo.

I fell asleep watching Hook last night.

gutsymama · August 2014

@J134EVA‌ I know exactly what you mean. I left Luke with my mom the first 3 days this week, and it was so hard to leave but almost worth it for how excited he got when I came home. His face just lit up, both arms waving and clapping, and then he would bring both hands to his face to hold his bink in amidst shrieks of laughter.

I tried to take a picture yesterday so I can remember exactly how happy he was, but I don't think this does it justice:

theuntaggablek · August 2014

It's been pretty intense to be searching and selecting readings detailing the deaths (reported and unreported) in Mississippi during Freedom Summer of 64 and watching the events unfold in Missouri.

This isn't just about St. Louis. Or Michael Brown. Or the police department of Ferguson. Or 2014.

Cosmo had his post-op today. I have no clue what it's supposed to look like, but I thought it looked great. Doc, his wife, his tech, and the goats in the parking lot agreed. First estimate: $2700 + $300-500 post op. Total cost: $510 + $100 optional dental And, he's doing great. I'm do glad I listened to my gut and walked. :o3

yay cosmo!
