  I'm sad- I can take a shower and that is it...DH is being such a pita about watching two- and I'm only in the other room. If he's with him and ds1 longer then 5 minutes, he's looking for me, I can't even take care of the dishwasher without him bring the baby in to me. And if the baby is fussing, it's even sooner. WTF? I got a side eye when I mentioned I wanted to work in january (like 2 hours tops) on saturdays to get our debt filled asses some $$. OHwait- I had a lovely -3 hr break @ the ER when I needed an MRI. FML.
  
  sorry to drag the thread down w/ whine. I think dh and I need a sit down.

  @TurtleMonsters‌ at the very least hire a mother's helper for a couple hours each week. I bet some college student in your town would love to make $9.00 in your living room while you take a shower or do whatever you need to do

  This is a good idea.  I should do something for myself this weekend, alone.  After the first week back to work, I will need it!

  DH and I went to happy hour yesterday with a couple of friends. It was one of my favorite things to do before being knocked up, so MIL watched the baby for an hour and a half. I think it's the most relaxed I've been in a LONG time. I felt guilty for using one of our times for her to watch DD for something frivolous, but I didn't realize how much I needed it until I was there.

  I went for a massage last week in hopes of keeping my neck from getting any worse and it really helped.  I would love to get my hair colored but that takes 3 hours and I don't know if DH could handle all 3 at once for that long.  I haven't had it done in almost a year so I am wayyyy overdue.  Good thing the ombre look is in. I bought a pair of decent pants off the sale rack so I would look presentable at church.

  Thanks to this thread and DH's encouragement went out for a few minutes with a few moms who were getting together. Got a gel manicure and pedicure Sunday as well! That one was difficult - DH had to keep baby happy that last half hour before I was done since LO was ready to eat.

  Last week..

  I snuck off to the tub for a hot shower and a DIY facial and treated myself to a couple of new face products from Lush (plus I had the Lush employee give me a facial with the products I was buying) it was awesome.

  I went shopping at Nordstrom alone and got myself fitted for a nice new nursing bra and stocked up on make-up. Also bought the little girl some over-priced head bands! Then I wandered around Whole Foods for an hour eating samples. It was fantastic!
