I need this today.

I just dropped DD2 off at daycare for the first time! Waah! This is my second kid and I did this once before and I didn't think it would be this hard. I've been back at work since November, but DH was home with her. Now he is back to work and she is at daycare.

I am second guessing how much milk I sent, if I sent enough back-up clothes, everything. And I miss her.

PLUS, I am back on weight watchers again today. And I gained an astonishing amount of weight during the holidays. So today is gonna suck.

I think we may be having sleep regression. I don't know. Why LO is suddenly waking 4 times each night is perplexing me. =(

kareik01 · January 2015

The candy bowl on my desk was half full this morning. It has since been emptied and refilled. Only one person has eaten from it.

Yep, that'd be me. :@)

My H is acting so strange lately. Honestly, it's making me sad.

alphaxi614 · January 2015

Supposed to start a 28 day boot camp today, but my stuff didn't come. Meal plans, shakes, the works and I have to start a day late. So I had skittles for breakfast....

Also LO woke up every two hours last night. WTF??? He's been back to 1 wake up the whole two weeks I was off and now that I have to work he's up all night playing with his feet?!

arcarpe2 · January 2015

We had large unexpected expense today and now we have only a 150 euros for the rest of the month. This is factoring in all bills paid. Errr I'm going to have to get real creative.

IceHide61313 · January 2015

I have to make a phone call today.

I HATE making phone calls.
-rehearses it in head
-writes it down
-rehearses again
-make sure all bases are covered that could possibly be asked
-procrastinate
-get balls to do it
-chicken out
-rehearses
-finally makes the call

Elaina22 · January 2015

My babysitter texted me to let me know LO was so happy and not at all tired, so she had not yet taken a nap. Ummmm she is usually on her second nap by now. This makes me dread the night and hate being a working mom more than I already did!

IceHide61313 · January 2015

@Kandreas1 hahahah that is horrible! It is only to make LO's 4month appt. I'm totes ridiculous.

I was supposed to start the Whole30 today, but DH didn't feel well enough to help me grocery shop yesterday.. So I had a cheeseburger for lunch..

The grocery shopping and prep is the hardest part. I'm making a new recipe tomorrow for dinner and will have to let you know how it is. It looks super easy! We aren't on it right now but I try to maintain some of the ideas so it is easy to get back into in a couple months. Before we start again I am going to make some stuff and have it in the freezer so I'm not constantly prepping and cooking. I hope you get to the store soon!

blondee4685 · January 2015

@Elaina22‌ my husband is with the LO and just told me LO took a 30 min nap this morning and just woke from a 20 min! I was up half the night with him......dreading tonight too!

MandMLeona · January 2015

I've got the flu. I shiver so violently I can't carry a pop without spilling. Then I will sweat like mad...rinse, repeat. I ache so bad I can barely walk right now. But all the thermometers in the house say I have no fever. At least DDs got adjusted at the chiro today, so they aren't as crabby.

I only slept 3 hours. I just couldn't get back to sleep all night.

IceHide61313 · January 2015

@YoginiKiki‌ I'd be alright with that :-)

FI has this awesome new thing he does with leftovers. Instead of putting things in Tupperware, he just wraps everything in a giant ball of aluminum foil. Last night, I opened the fridge to find 5-6 mystery balls of foil. It was so much fun guessing what everything was! One was fucking mashed potatoes. The other was AN asparagus....just one. Who the hell eats one asparagus????!!! Then I found 5 olives in a ziplock bag.....in the cheese drawer.....just cause.

I hate men.

Mashed potatoes really! DH is the exact opposite if a person (me) uses a ziplock bag when it is not needed it's the end of the world. Ziplock cost most you know. Which I'm all for saving money but sometimes I would like to use a f$@& ing ziplock.

My MIL is all about the foil, everything goes in foil! She'll even tell you to put it in foil, and she uses up all my foil on her leftovers and never replaces it. All I want is for her to use f@%&*$ing glad ware or reusable container. Her reason "I can just stick in in the oven in foil". All because she thinks all dishes,even ones she washed in her dishwasher, are to "dirty" and she can't eat off them. She does the same with towles but that's another rant...

Klaundry · January 2015

Ughhhh...

I've been feeling pretty miserable lately - clearly my depression rearing its ugly head - and I think I might be catching this nasty bug going around. Anyways work is a nightmare and we have an audit starting next Monday lasting 2 weeks and my boss is running around like a chicken with his head cut off demanding I get things done all while tackling normal end of quarter/end of year tasks. Needless to say it was already a miserable Monday and then what happens when I get to my parents for dinner. My mom is -justifiably - upset because it's her 50th birthday and we really dropped the ball by not having anything spectacular planned

Peedy · January 2015

Doctor called.. My TSH was <0.1.. Like I needed something else to head the doctors for to follow up on... Get at the end of the list, thyroid.

cdseno · January 2015

I just had to order my textbooks for next semester. It wasn't as bad as usual but still enough to make me want to vomit.

amj1053 · January 2015

I just saw a posting for one of my dream jobs. I won't have my degree until May. This has made me way more stabby them it probably should.

This made me laugh out loud. But I'm sorry. My husband likes to leave empty Gatorade bottles NEXT to the trash can...not IN the trash can, which is about six inches away, but NEXT TO. JUST OPEN THE GD TRASH CAN AND INSERT BOTTLE.

cdseno · January 2015

@Kandreas1‌ do you get money for any plastic bottle? Here is Michigan we get 10 cents for cans and bottles but only from carbonated beverages like pop (soda, whatever), so not Gatorade. When I moved to Pennsylvania for a few months it was so weird to just throw them out.

Wait. Is there no return on bottles in America?!! That's 5 good cents in my part of the world.

Oh no I wasn't clear! I should have said recycle bin.

cdseno · January 2015

We pay the deposit on carbonated stuff, beer too. But not regular beverages like juice and milk. We have city recycling here. Ours is free which is super nice so we throw a lot in the recycling. We actually get points for recycling and then can turn the points in for cool things around the city. This summer H and I are quite a bit of free Mexican food because we could get gift certificates with our points.

I went to spin class for the first time in a year or so, was great but my roids are back to haunt me for some reason. Sooo sitting on that seat was slightly uncomfortable, I hope I didn't make them worse

On a side note, hi everyone! I haven't posted on here in a long time!

At first I thought maybe this story was about using steroids to get through spin class. Then I read I further.... Althought using steroids for spin class would make you pretty dedicated.

I am glad you said recycling bin now. I am kind of the recycling Nazi.

Ugh add amoxicillin rash to the list of things plaguing poor DS. And I went to the doc today. I have a 4.4cm cyst on my ovary they found when doing an ultra sound to make sure my IUD was where it was supposed to be.

I'm sorry you are having a rough time with LO. Before pregnancy I had the mirena and frequently got cysts on my ovaries. One time I had to have surgery because it grew to about 7 cm. Just a heads up to really keep a close eye on it because they can grow pretty fast.

This cyst talk reminds me- I had a grape sized cyst on my ovary pregnancy. Wonder what happened to it.

Sometimes they can just hang around. I had one for years but I never even knew until I got pregnant with DD1. They said the hormones causes it to flare up. It got to the size of a soccer ball so I had to have it removed around 12 weeks. It was strange.

Edited because it's early and I need coffee.

Woah, a soccer ball?? That is HUGE! It must have been so painful. Plus it's like the cyst was as big as a pregnant belly.

GreenMonkey1 · January 2015

@cdseno My professor just listed the book yesterday - class starts Monday. So not only do I have to spend money on a book, but I also have to pay expedited shipping and *hope* it arrives on time. This irritates the bejeebers out of me - book orders are supposed to be in months, not days before the class starts.

klauke_t13 · January 2015

Sewer smell at work today. Now I have a crazy headache and feel like crap. I'm actually thankful that I have to walk to a different building in negative temps and 20 below wind chill to pump in a building full of men. :-S
