Selfishly started because I am so excited! My company changed it's dress code policy to a "dress for your day" policy! Meaning unless you have customer meetings/outside contact (which I have none of) WE GET TO WEAR JEANS EVERYDAY!

Another positive...I get to go shopping because I only have two pairs of maternity jeans. But I do have quite a few maternity dress pants, most of which are hand me downs, so I will probably still wear those #balleronabudget

@krashke yay for comfort!! I love working for a company that basically said they were happy as long as we were all clothed everyday. I could wear gym clothes or pajamas all day if I wanted- and if I get any bigger I may have to wear pajama pants.

catlady1215 · February 2018

positive for me is i'm off the next 2 days. i got crap to do but atleast i won't be working!

LaceyBee522 · February 2018

I just heard back from our landlord and we can leave our lease early! Hooray!! I'm now obsessively looking at two bedroom apartments! I'm so excited that I'll have a real apartment with a real nursery to bring the babies home to!

I was leaving work early to go to my 22-week checkup, when some guy hit my car.
Positives I am taking from this:

we're both okay
my car is still driveable
he had insurance
I don't need to replace the car seats, per the manufacturer
DH just sold his toolbox, so we have $$$ to meet our insurance deductible
I just cleaned the car out this past weekend, so if it is totaled, we won't have to take much out
DH and I work at the same place and he was able to stay with me most of the time
it could have been a lot worse

LaceyBee522 · February 2018

@kfren So sorry that happened, but I'm glad you're alright!

lisa2589 · February 2018

@kfren Scary, glad you’re okay!

ramennoodlegif · February 2018

@LaceyBee522 @l2589 Thanks. We were going less than 25 mph, so once I realized I was okay and that DS2 was most likely okay, I calmed down quite a bit.

stephcat421 · February 2018

@kfren so glad to hear you're ok!

Amphibious22 · February 2018

@kfren so glad everything is okay! Still scary, but good on you for focusing on the positives.

Amphibious22 · February 2018

My positive is that I passed my glucose test!! DH and I went to Disney for the last time before the move today and after I got the call, I celebrated by getting a double scoop waffle cone on Main Street. So good!

amys614 · February 2018

@kfren so glad it wasn't worse! Car accidents are so scary no matter how slow you're going.

@Amphibious22 woot woot!

@LaceyBee522 bring on the decorating, girl!

I had a really easy, stress free day at work today, which are hard to come by. Andplusalso, my boss is going to be out of town for the next 2 weeks off and on with the latter part being out of the country. Means my emails will go from 56 a day to 6.

ramennoodlegif · February 2018

@LaceyBee522 Congrats on the apt! Hooray for more space!
@stephcat421 thanks!
@Amphibious22 Thanks and yay!!! I hope the ice cream was extra tasty

@amys614 Thanks and + a million on the no boss situation! I know you can feel a change in our office when our boss is gone. Enjoy!!!

catlady1215 · February 2018

Had my regular apt today. And she wants another ultrasound before my next visit. Because my thyroid is so screwed up and I have the autoimmune thyroiditis, she wants to check his growth etc. So even though its because of issues, it's a positive to me cause I love ultrasounds!! And didn't expect any more anytime soon!!

ffw0617 · February 2018

@LaceyBee522 that's great he let you out of the lease. I feel like there should be laws, like change of circumstances clauses in leases that allow for this (similar to insurance), when we got our house in July '15, my lease wasn't up until Oct '15 and they wouldn't let me out of it. So I had to sublease (without authorization from my landlord) it ended up working out okay, the subleasor paid every month, she did stick me with her last electricity bill though. But I'll take losing $75 over paying rent for 4 months.
@kfren glad you're okay, that's a huge fear of mine
@Amphibious22 I want icecream in a cone that sounds so good, I had icecream Sunday but a waffle cone yum
@amys614 That is literally only of the few pros to my current job. My boss has another office in Fla so he's gone a lot things are SO much better when he's gone.
@catlady1215 even though its not under the best circumstances I'm glad you get to see your baby more

krashke Maternity jeans are heaven! I have luck with H&M and Old Navy.

My positive is that I am so excited to have a 4 day weekend! It's basically the best part of February every year.

izza2 · February 2018

-Maternity pants make me feel like a whole new woman.
-It's Thursday!
-I put chocolate syrup in my coffee this morning and it's amazing.
-I may actually brush my hair, pluck my eyebrows, and put a little makeup on today.

krash_ · February 2018

It's Presidents' Day and I have to work but it seems like everyone else is off today so my drive to work was so quick and smooth! No traffic or stupid people!

Also, do we need to do a new Positive Focus every week as it doesn't seem like this one got all that many posts.

izza2 · February 2018

@krashke - I vote no, but I also feel a few of our threads could really be consolidated to monthly or bi-weekly (or just one weekly random vs. weekday and weekend?), so I'm obviously #teamsimplicity.

kmurdock925 · February 2018

when I first found out I was preg DH got me a gift card for a prenatal spa day (massage, facial, pedi) and I cashed in on it yesterday...pure heaven. I didn't realize that parts of me were as sore/tight as they were and now I feel loosey goosey

aharv77 · February 2018

@kmurdock925 That sounds amazing!!

krash_ · February 2018

@kmurdock925 MH gave me the choice of prenatal yoga or a prenatal massage for V-day and you have officially convinced me to do the massage!

kmurdock925 · February 2018

@krashke - yes- do the massage girl!!! so so good. It should be a pregnancy requirement. The only down side was I couldn't drink the champagne/wine they offered in the quiet room.

lisa2589 · February 2018

My mom is using some vacation time this week, and Dad is newly retired since the beginning of the year, and they asked me if I could bring DD over to spend the night with them one night this week! We usually go over to see them about once a week and she adores them. I usually only leave her there when I need to run a few errands or something quick, because I never want to feel like I’m taking advantage of them. I’m also pretty whacko about just wanting her home with me at night, but I’m looking forward to it as a little break! DH and I will probably go out for dinner and then tomorrow morning I’ll tackle some tubs of clothes in the baby room before I go pick her up later in the day.

izza2 · February 2018

Positive focuses:
-My dogs love sleeping on me, and it's so warm. One dog is sleeping on my leg, and the other is sleeping with her head on his back.

-Cocoa puffs and cinnamon toast crunch. Yum.
-We replaced the air filter in my car, and it fixed every issue I've been having, and my car drives like she's new again.

doxiemoxie212 · February 2018

I’m so happy to be on this vacation and DH is in such a good mood, it’s wonderful. I think partly he feels guilty for the night before our flight so he’s being extra cheerful and patient to make up for it, but I also think the sunshine really does make a huge difference. And either way I’ll take it!
