Evening Randoms/Vents/Complaints

[ginger]

Whatevah, whatevah. I do what I want.

Dang. I think I have to admit I have chronic fatigue. It's a common symptom of a couple of my diagnosises...but I'm mad about it. I never talk about it because it's just frustrating/annoying/embarrassing, but I have mentioned here how early I go to bed in jokes sometimes.

I'm tired of going to bed at 8 or 8:30 every night and still waking up tired in the mornings. I'm tired of being so exhausted by Saturday that I don't have the energy to do much with M on the weekends....I'm thankful she likes to play by herself for a while at least...but that still has to suck to be her sometimes. Bleh.

I think it's time to talk to work about reducing my hours, but I'm terrified. I try my damnedest to never let my health interfere with work...so I have no idea what to expect. I don't even know how to bring it up. Of course they aren't supposed to hold it against me...but you know how real life works. I'm thinking of starting small like asking for every other Monday off....but it just feels so LAME to even need to ask, but even my Psych hinted that it would be a good idea last appointment.

Bleh.

I had a Doctor Appointment yesterday so I got home early, and I went to bed at 5 PM! I felt like I could do it all again today, but I'm determined to see my kid today...

Bleh.

Just getting it out there. Sometimes I think better once I've said or written it out loud.

Share yours.

I have to write a cover letter and I am procrastinating because I hate doing it so much.
My El Pollo Loco lunch gave me terrible heartburn. Every time I eat it I get heartburn or some other GI issue and still I continue to eat it and torture myself.

What did the doctor say about chronic fatigue?

My random:
I have to have the Maternity21 test done tomorrow. I hate that the results take so long but the amnio scares me.

[bonquiqui]

I understand this completely, and it sucks.

What did the doctor say about chronic fatigue?

I was having a ridiculous time focusing and even remembering to do the things I should do every day, so she suggested ADD...but she also wanted me to try the meds because sometimes it's used off-label for CFS....welp...I can focus now! But I'm still just as tired. She's determined to help me with the CFS next though, so that's nice, but the vibe I got from her was that it pretty much means not working a full 40 hour work week. Her direct question was, "What would happen if you quit?"....
lol! 

[sineadorebellion]

Add me to the gastrointestinal issues list. Uggghhhhh this is the worst.

I pulled over to the side of the road so I could take a picture of a cemetery in the fog. I'm such a weirdo.

The picture was worth it.

So the nurse at the birth center fucked up my 3hour GD test (drew the blood in the wrong tube) so that is invalid. I can't believe the bad luck I've had with pregnancy related tests! The good news is that my midwife (who is also livid with the nurse) said I can just test myself 1 hour after each meal for 3 days and if my numbers are good we will assume I don't have GD. Midwife thinks I failed the 1 hour because I'm not used to eating that much sugar at a time. So far today's #'s are good

There is no way this is real life....

I can't believe you've had another hiccup with this!

I like your midwife.

I understand this completely.

H came home last night, drunk, from his trip. He went straight from the airport to a bar with his buddy and came back loaded and he drove his own car . Upon arrival, he gave me a couple of souvenirs and then immediately went to work putting the moves on me. Are you kidding me? He's drunk, comes home, after 4.5 days of no contact whatsoever, at 1 am, interrupts everything I had to say, and he starts grabbing his junk and telling me to hop on for a ride? FUCK TO THE NO! I already want him out of the house again. At least this trip made it official that I don't love him, didn't miss him for a nanosecond, and that I wish he was gone again. With that settled...time to formulate some planning. I can't do this anymore. It's too hard to pretend when my skin crawls whenever H touches me.

I hope you figure something out soon.

I'm so tired of having a non stop crying baby. wtf happened? He was so chill and easy going, now he's like this ball of anger all the damn time. He's just constantly fucking unhappy. He doesn't sleep. I don't sleep. Sofia still wakes up in the middle of the night 1-2 times. If one kid isn't waking up it's the other, so I never EVER get any goddamn sleep.

I'm starting to wish my h never took this job oot.

I went to a costume gala/fundraiser for work tonight and won best costume! My prize was a certificate for a one-hour massage, I'm stoked!

Awesome! What was your costume? PIP!

I had a nice day out with the kids. Met up with a friend and her baby at the mall. They were so good, and only got a touch cranky around nap time. I bought a new winter coat and a few things at Sephora. We stopped in to see family we won't get to tomorrow for trick or treating. The kids are exhausted.

[MWOS]

I just made chicken noodle soup and the seasoning looked like a yeast infection suppository. Whatever.

[hi725]

My insane work schedule is seriously hampering my gym time. I only made it twice last week, and I haven't made it at all this week. I'm exhausted and cranky and I can't wait until my contract is up at the end of December. Of course, I'm kidding myself because the money is so fantastic that I will renew for another 13 weeks if they ask me, and I'm 99.9% sure they will.

I read this as your COSTUME was a certificate for a massage and I was perplexed.    Awesome prize.  I'm totally jealous.

Vent - I was napping until the doorbell woke me. This was one of the few days where a nap would have been possible and I really needed it. 

[wambam]

I got in a pull-up rhythm tonight like I never have before! And it felt amazing! But seriously, WHY couldn't this have happened on Saturday during my comp?! I was struggling to bust them out one at a time on Saturday.

My scars from my breast reduction hurt so bad right now. Whenever I lose weight it feels like the stretch. It's terrible and makes me wanna cry. It feels like someone is pinching and tearing them at the same time. Holy hell it hurts. I'd call my surgeon but he died last year. I just gotta deal. It lasts for like a day or two and it's gone.

Lunch made my stomach upset and I'm afraid to make dinner now.

I'm pretty sure he wasn't The Last Doctor

We bought pumpkins for our kids about a week and a half ago and still haven't carved them.  Tonight is the last night before Halloween and I really don't feel like cracking those two gourds up in the kitchen.  It's just going to be a stinky, slimy mess.



Get off my lawn!

[Kristinmo]

Every time DH loads the dishwasher, he puts bowls on the top rack. Every time I move them to the bottom. If you put them on the top where the fuck am I supposed to put the sippy cups?!?!? First world problem.

Im talking to a guy from plenty of fish that I'm actually digging. He caught an obscure title of a Alk3 song in my profile and we've hit it off. This is cool.

[kaybee85]

I just liked the hell out of posts in the nestism post.

I almost cut a bitch at work who thought she was going to dip out of an event. I'm a teacher... You really can never just leave work early without coverage. She's also a mooch in general.

I participated in a flash mob at work
PDQ, will delete. I think the link won't work. Lol. Add this to my complaints.

[winelady]

"I was just wondering since tetanus is found in the feces of farm animals... also if your wound was bleeding there is almost no risk of tetanus developing.. Just in case you didn't know I hope you feel better!"

this from an anti-vaxer after asking why I got a tetanus shot today. I did not engage.

(I got 3 stitches today after slicing a toe on a piece of broken Pyrex, im probably safe from tetnanus in my kitchen but it's been probably 15 years since my last tetanus so why not)?

i asked the dr. How bad it was going to hurt after the lidocaine wore off, she said it shouldn't but gave memavscript for 3 Vicodin! I'm not in any pain so Carmel vodka and cider it is!

[pantsparty]

I bought like $45 in candy today and now I'm trying not to eat all of it. It doesn't help that I've been craving Skittles for weeks.

Oh, no.    What time do you wake up?  I'm so sorry that you are going through this.

My complaint is that I have to take a gestational diabetes test for a third time.  This will be the second time for the three-hour test.  Perhaps this is routine, but it is still very annoying.  LOL.
