Re: Work it Wednesday
I'm working from home today, but have an appt later on so I figured I would start super early
I had a terrible dream that I was on a plane and he pulled up really hard to the point we flipped upside down and I was convinced that it was the end. I even asked in the dream "could this be a dream, is this real?" And was 100% convinced it was in fact real. We did survive, but when my alarm went off I woke up with horrible chest pains.
@LorMor that's a tough one
H and I are back to normal after some of the fighting that's been going on. We're actually doing really good. Having AF was probably part of the problem.. I skipped AF last month so this one was particularly rough... Speaking of which, I've gone off BC again. Not because I want to get KU, but because it messes with my hormones way too much. So now we have to play the "don't get pregnant" game before we go on our trip in the spring. I already feel so much better off it though, and I was like OH HEYYY libido, nice to see you
@NeedUtonite: thank you, those are good suggestions. I'll try to work out the whole message and see how they fit.
C is also a champion negotiator. She always holds up 1 finger and says "one more, mama. One more. " And now, when she does something naughty, she asks. "Funny, mama?" And I say, no, it's sassy, not funny. And then she barks like a dog. As if she's trying to distract me from her sassiness, or make me laugh. It works more than it should.
Moms of smaller babes... can I ask a question? Did your babes have weights or heights that were off the chart? Did the doctor ever show concern to do additional testing? I'm going to delete this later. My nanny's sweet baby is about 8.5 months old and weighs 13 pounds and some change. She wasn't concerned until her doctor showed concern at his last well baby check. So they made a weight check appointment and he didn't grow or gain weight during a month's time. They took blood and they're doing some tests and more appointments. I know my nanny is sick about this, but I've been trying to reassure her that he's perfect. She's bfing him more often and feeding him good things. Does anyone have experience? Is FTT the worse case scenario? And what does that even mean, exactly?? I'm worried for the little man. He's so active and meeting all his milestones early. Could he just be burning all his calories?
and she told us that if we go a store thats about 20 mins further, they'll give us 30% off the cabinets/doors and the appliances before the 20% they're giving for the semi-annual sale. they're trying to clear out their stock for the next batch
One of my friends son was average sized at birth, but gained weight really slowly. At 6 months was about 11 lbs, and was just below 17 lbs at a year. Now he's 3 and still tiny. About the same size as C. But his docs aren't worried, he's healthy and meeting milestones. But has small parents, so maybe he's destined to be petite.
Work has been crazy busy the last couple days, but I think I may have a handle on it finally! Also, fingers crossed please as my H just had a job interview doing almost the same stuff he is doing now but making almost $3 more an hour. I hope he gets it. He wont know for a couple of days as they still have other people to interview but I can hope until we hear otherwise!!
Just got a call from my boss. We didn't have the most positive conversation. I confessed to him during my evaluation a few months ago that I was having a hard time keeping up with my long commute, work and family, particularly during harvest. Looking back, that was a mistake to confide in him! After I submitted a grant proposal today he called to say that he was "confused" because he thought I was "on my way out". I never said that! I just told him I was having a hard time. Administration is always telling us to keep communication open, yet I feel like my words are getting used against me!
