Usually I’m really good about recycling. We use plastic water bottles and DH drink seltzer water like it’s going out of style, but in the last month I’ve gotten super lazy. We’ve also switched to paper products because the dishes are too much for me.
@cdepperschmidt - my husband and his parents have always used paper plates napkins and cups for every meal. Like for 30+ years! I think you get a pass for first trimester
I woke up Wednesday, with plans for meetings at work, and a day care tour scheduled. And I just couldn’t. I called in sick, made pancakes for breakfast, snacked on oreos and girls scout cookies all day and ate toasted tortillas with cheese for dinner. I sat on my couch in my PJs with my dog, and accomplished nothing useful- my laundry from last weekend still hasn’t been folded, and now my kitchen is dirty.
The only thing I regret is that I didn’t include any fiber on Wednesday. My GI track spent all day Thursday making its unhappiness known.

This sounds like the best day ever.
Sorry you had some repercussions from it on Thursday - hope you're better now!
I called out sick today! I actually am kind of sick (sore throat, mild cough), but theres a huge storm going on and I just wanna nap all day and laze about.
There’s about two feet of snow outside my door (that fell within a matter of roughly 8 hours last night, so...my ass took 8 hours of PTO, because fuck all that.
I absolutely loathe that symptoms come and go. I've been feeling pretty nauseous and food-adverse lately, but today I woke up with a normal appetite. No matter how many times I tell myself that this is meaningless it still messes with my head.

I've started lurking on the August board because there IS a bunch of snark there, despite the fact that i have no intention of having this baby in August. I also almost posted there this morning....
I have been avoiding doing any actual work at work today like it’s the plague. I’ve been snacking and playing on my phone like all morning, and have no intention of doing real work anytime soon.
@kiwi2628 - I actually negotiate with my friends that they can call me a B. I only have a limited amount of empathy and patience. Once you’ve passed that threshold, we are straight into stupidity, for which I gives no emotional f’s.
Mostly, I try to not let the dogs out on people that I haven’t figured out yet, which takes longer online. Also, hormones.

I remember when I was engaged and a heavy user on TheKnot, sometimes we would get links to awesome threads involving the "crazy bump ladies." But we aren't crazy, these ladies were legit crazy.
Another one for me today. I made up an excuse to skip out on happy hour after work today A) because I’m exhausted and just want to go home, and B- so that I don’t need to answer any questions about not drinking. I’m not even sorry to be missing it though, getting cozy on my couch sounds so much better to me instead.
I’ve been in the worst mood/funk for the past week. I use to be able to manage my moods with regular exercise but since I can’t do anything without getting sick I’ve become quite the moody B-itch and I don’t even care. Looks like some new makeup and nail polish are in my future. Or a big fat cheeseburger.
We are finally telling our family/parents tomorrow. My step dad is on drill weekend (he's in the air Force) which means he most likely won't be home. I've waited 4 weeks to tell my mom and I can't wait any longer. I feel bad that we won't be telling my step dad at the same time as my mom, but at the same time... I don't care. I plan on calling him while at my mom's house to let him know, I just hope he's not upset.
My in-laws got in town on Thursday. We have not told them that we are expecting, but I was exhausted from work and had MS most of the day. So, I opted to stay home while my husband and his family went out. I ate leftover deep dish pizza and mac and cheese and binged on Netflix and did not feel bad in the least.
Also, regarding the lack of snark, I would give it time. We have 7 months to get big and cranky!
I feel like my house is a mess, which I should probably get used to. I woke up this am, motivated to fold laundry and straighten up... And now I'm puking and back in bed. I made eggs and toast and just stared at them, no desire to eat them.
SS and I are supposed to make a fairy garden today, and we are meeting my dad for lunch to tell him. And I want to do nothing.
I kinda broke down today to MH. I hate not getting stuff done around the house. We agreed we are going to take the dog to the groomer to at least help somewhat.

After much more of the same...

I'm mad at my clientele right now so I said to hell with all of them and I'm not doing any work today.

Edited because the bump turned my B- into
