My dad is coming to help me out a little today, since DH has been out of town for a week. I'm so excited to have another adult to keep DS' attention...and I am thinking of sneaking into my room for a bit to read gossip magazines alone under the guise of getting ready for my game this afternoon. Ah...just like my teenage days. ;-)
is this truly flame free???? Im not loving my new bump board. I know feb13 isnt the norm....but I am just not into the May15 mamas for the most part...unless they came from Feb13 then special exemption. Maybe itll get better as time goes on and fewer people are active, but right now its too much to keep up with and the women all live in Crazytown.
My husband put his 2 week notice in at his job. I make enough money to support us financially and his job has been a pain the butt recently so it was time to go. He is going to stay at home and watch the kids for a while and work on getting a couple of certifications he will need for a job that he wants to try and get.
I secretly wish it was me instead. I don't want him having fun with my bebe without me.
I miss DD a lot from not seeing her while I was in the hospital, but I'm pretty freaked out about having her come home. We just got home about an hour and a half ago, and DH just left to get her from my IL's. I am soooo happy he will be home to help with the transition this weekend. I kinda wish she could stay with someone else for another day or two but there's absolutely no reason for that other than me being a wuss about it. I guess we gotta do this 2 kid thing sometime...

@Sagen Sorry you're feeling down today. I think we miss family so much more right after they leave because the contrast is so apparent. It's hard to live far away.
Time to put on some music and dance! Or get outside with LO and enjoy the sunshine. Or maybe get some ice-cream. Anything to cheer yourself up.

I got choked up when I dropped DS off this morning at his sitter's house. She told me I didn't have to pick him up this evening since he'll be staying with her overnight tonight. He was so sweet blowing me kisses and toddling around on the sidewalk. I miss him
Mine is I'm letting DS scream in his crib. He woke up earlier than usual this morning and he's exhausted and overtired, but damn it, if it kills me, I'm going to leave him there until he passes out. I'm working from home and I am NOT taking him downstairs to the babysitter and "letting him be her problem" until 5, because DH is going out to tonight and so when she leaves, he's going to be my problem again then, and then tomorrow when he wakes up early as he always does when he's overtired.
I'm tired. My brain hurts. JUST STOP SCREAMING MAMA.
I have to replace E's car seat again. The foam shock absorber cracked and I have no idea how or when. I called customer service and they're going to send me a refund check for the full cost of the seat, since it's less than a year old (remember I replaced it last year after me car accident?). Okay, so that's not flame worthy at all.
But we just don't have yet another $200 sitting unused to replace his seat. I called my mommy and she's going to do it for us, then I'll give her the refund check.
Since I don't have the receipt for his seat, and they didn't ask for a receipt from the new purchase, do you think I can/should use a bru coupon to get a better deal than the full cost?
@byebyebooze i find them to be so intense. constant thread blow ups. which might be the majority of the bump i dont really frequent other boards besides working moms, but chill out people its an internet forum. you dont like what someone posts about, just dont answer it!! so silly, makes for a lot of fluff that makes the board stale in my opinion. Im sure alot of people will filter out as time goes on but for now..too many people that care way too much.
Ok- mine is, we have some friends that we trade babysitting with. My FFFC is that it is our turn to watch their kids this evening, and I just don't want to. I mean, of course it'll be fine, but I just want to have some family time tonight. And further flameworthy is that I didn't make it to the grocery store this week so we'll be having hot dogs for dinner. I usually feed my kids healthy stuff but then I never know what someone else's kids will like or not like or if they'll stare at my healthy homemade food like I'm crazy, so hot dogs it is!
@sagen - I have that situation too and I always get in a funk whenever we leave family or they leave us. It sucks. Do whatever you need to feel better...go shopping, plan a fun activity, get outside with the kids...
I wish I could vent freely about work-I will say I am getting busy work assignments when I have three difference cases involving life as the penalty that all have critical hearings+briefs due in the next few weeks. LO is just starting to get into tantrums and this morning was more than I could handle. I want to just go to a spa and drink champagne and swim all day today.
My four year anniversary was yesterday. DH and I planned to take the day off together without kids since that NEVER happens. DD woke up with a 102 fever which has been bouncing back and forth between 100(with meds)to 104 since then.
The flameworthy part....of course I took care of her and I am sorry she is sick (dr said it is a virus) but I was probably unreasonably sad that we did not get to celebrate at all and I was home / up all night dealing with a sick toddler :-( I am just really missing DH and I before kids lately....actually getting time together....
