  • Random Rant: My high risk doctor had me fill out 5 pages of new patient paperwork. I was here in January. Evidently I can't write 'no changes', even though literally nothing has changed. X_X

  • I'm usually so good about staying on top of my calendar and to do list.  

    Right now I am so far behind on my to-do list, I totally missed an 8am meeting this morning, and I'm totally unprepared to bring an app for a 6:00 meeting after work.  I feel so disorganized and all over the place.

  • Pre-planning starts tomorrow and I think I'm dreading going back to school more than the students!  I've done practically nothing to prep over the summer.

    I'm jealous of all of you who can still stomach coffee. The last few times I tried I was sick as a dog yet I'm craving it allllll the time.

  • Taking away the paci from dd has been hell. It takes her over two hours to fall asleep and yesterday she cut her nap. Last night I turned the monitor off and went to bed.

  • My two year old has been an absolute BEAST the last three days. Whiny, cranky, clingy, whiny, annoying, whiny..... I don't like him right now, it's all driving me CRAZY! 
  • I miss cold brew, @NiceyMeany! I haven't had any since its so much stronger and I prefer to maximize my coffee volume for my 200 mg.
  • Randoms...
    I'm thinking about a career change. I need to work P/T when this child arives as daycare costs will make my current position unrealistic. I'm actually exploring Real Estate Agent. It would be quite a change, but I'm social and it's flexible. I wouldn't make what I make now probably but I think it is worth looking into.

    PS I hate sneezing... My bladder is quite unhappy with it. And I'm fairly scared of what will happen as this baby grows.
  • My 15month old has started potty training yay!!! Almost every morning she takes her morning poops in the potty seat if I can time it right.
    Yesterday she was shifting in the seat and smeared it, ewwwwhhh not good for my nausea. 
  • @LaurenAshley04 When my son turned a year old, I decided to go back to work but in a new field so I could swing part time. I worked as a luxury apartment leasing consultant and even part time I made a good amount of money. The only part I hated was working on Saturdays. That may be an option to look into? Real estate is great too, but I've heard there is such a saturated market that sometimes it's more difficult to break into. 

    On another note, I got some sort of allergy/sinus cold over the weekend. I feel like the most useless mother ever. H has been doing everything including studying for his finals, and now as I'm on the upswing he's getting sick  :s
  • @kirstynikole I caught the same thing and laid useless on the couch all weekend. Hoping you guys feel better soon!
  • @Gingersnap That's too nervy. I am sure she can find a nice rental that can move furniture for her. 

    @peachesnbean I know what you mean. It makes me so sentimental and teary when I think of how fast they grow. My oldest is a quite a bit older but it didn't get much easier. 


  • We went to the park yesterday and let DD ride her bike there. She hasn't quite figured out the concept of braking when getting ready to cross the street, look for cars, etc. So I always remind her and she always has trouble. Well, this time I stopped her right as she got to the street, stood in front of her bike, pushed her back up the slightly elevated driveway we were on to make her try to brake again (so she can get used to it & learn). I let her go, told her to brake, but stood in front so she wouldn't go in the road. She couldn't brake and kept on saying "Oh my, oh my, oh my" in higher pitches. DH & I were just dying laughing. It was super cute.

    Random part of my random story, there was an akita out with it's owner yesterday on a long lead. Somehow the dog got off the lead and went to attack another dog kind of close to us. I couldn't see what happened because I didn't have my contacts in, but I could sure hear it. It was really sad. I wanted to go back and check on everyone to make sure they were ok, but not with DD there so we kept walking. I really hope everyone was ok though.

  • I just got some really scary medical news about my mom.. She's having a procedure done tomorrow and we will know more by the end of the week but I am just a mess. I don't even know how to process this news.

    I hate that. I swear whenever one person in a household gets better, another person gets it! It sucks.

    I hope you will be able to get rest and not get over stressed. My mom was battling breast cancer while I was pregnant with my first, it was quite exhausting. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. Wishing all goes well with your mom's procedure tomorrow.

  • @fourPsinapod I hope your mom pulls through.  I'll be sending my prayers your way. I know it's super hard right now but try not to stress too much.  Mental stress is hard to control.  But at least make sure to eat and drink on time. Xoxo


  • @fourPsinapod I'm so sorry to hear this.  My mom is going through some scary medical stuff right now, too.  I'm here if you want to talk.

  • I'm so sorry @fourpsinapod. Thinking good thoughts that your mom will be ok. Mine had surgery back in March and I was a total wreck about it, I know it's so tough. 
  • @fourpsinapod I am sorry to hear about your mom. I hope that whatever it is it is able to be treated and that she will be ok.
  • @fourPsinapod I'm so sorry to hear this.  My mom is going through some scary medical stuff right now, too.  I'm here if you want to talk.
    Hugs. Thank you. Praying for you guys too. My mom is my best friend so this just shook me to the core today. 
  • Thank you, all. I am hoping for good results from her test but either way, surgery is happening. This just sucks and I'm so worried. 
  • @fourPsinapod and @NiceyMeany you both are in my thoughts!!
  • One of the cats was hacking up something special for us and my husband stepped in a fresh hairball at 5:45 this morning. I laughed so hard I peed a tish. Maybe more than a tish..
  • @fourPsinapod and @NiceyMeany, thinking of you both. I've been there recently and know how upending it can be. @fourPsinapod, I hope all goes well with her procedure tomorrow. 
  • Thank you, all. I am hoping for good results from her test but either way, surgery is happening. This just sucks and I'm so worried. 
    sending good vibes your way @fourPsinapod! my dad just had a transplant for leukemia. it is so hard. make sure you rest and take care of yourself.
  • I hope everything's ok for both of your moms! @fourPsinapod @NiceyMeany
  • kirstynikole That sounds like our household. I've had this weird sickness going on three weeks and my husband finally caught it this weekend. 

    @fourPsinapod I am so sorry to hear about your mom. My father in law has been battling stage four cancer, so I will include you guys in our prayers. It's so hard when you are so close to your parent.  

    We have two sleeping beauties in heaven.

    They will be forever missed. <3
