I am debating whether or not I should wait for my appointment tomorrow morning or hit urgent care on the way to grab the kids. Stupid fricking sinuses/tonsils.
I have been crying on and off all day. We just found out that step-FIL is not going to continue chemo. He was diagnosed with an aggressive form of leukemia four months ago. Things were getting better, then he got pneumonia and things starting going downhill. He slowly was getting better again, then he had a port put in last week to make things easier, but it got infected with a flesh eating bacteria and now he has pneumonia again. He just wants to die comfortably in his own home, which I completely understand.
I'm so sad. He is the only person in H's family that has stood by us with all the crap with BIL and he has always treated us like we are his own and is 100% supportive. He loves L so much and I am so sad that she will not remember him. He would always talk to her about how he was going to buy her first set of golf clubs and he was going to teach her how to golf (he is a big golfer) and I hate that he'll never have the chance to do that. I'm such a wreck today and can't get it together.
I am quickly swinging between being a raging bitch and crying my eyes out. Thank goodness my period finally started... right before I travel. </sarcasm>
I ordered a try on box from Warby Parker. I'm so excited to try on all the glasses! Some of them are pretty funky.
I've had some weird eye infections lately that my doctor was thinking is related to contacts, so I've been wearing my glasses for the last two weeks. its not as bad as I thought it would be, so I like the idea of having some fun frames and wearing them more often. Also Warby Parker is really freaking cheap. I paid 600 bucks last time for my high density frames and lenses, and the most expensive pair I picked out will be 170. Damn.
My random is that I basically am directly responsible for starting a shit storm at my work yesterday. I reported something that is highly unethical. While I know I made the right decision, there is always fear of retaliation.
I cannot wait for this work day to end. This whole week is seriously dragging!
I've been fantasizing about vacations and spend time googling and pricing and pinning to Pinterest. We wont be able to go on a vacation this year with everything that has been going on with my nieces and buying the house and court costs with SD and I'm just depressing myself. But I can't stop.
I don't need any sympathy, we weren't close at all, but I just found out via a text from my sister that my grandfather passed away last night. Randoms actually seemed like a good place to put this.

Our house is in that unfortunate place where DS is feeling better after a cold, but DH and I are coming down with it, so DS has all the energy in the world and we absolutely do not. He's been having a lot more tantrums and I'm just not engaging, mostly because I'm exhausted.
I decided to make the invitations for my sister's shower by hand instead of just designing and printing something. I've spent hours on them already, but it makes me so happy. I love doing this for her, thinking of spring, and having something productive to do besides cooking, cleaning, and wiping butts & noses. It's been a LONG winter!
Also, I've said it before, but I really hate autocorrect. It does completely random things. Sometimes it changes "..." To "" or it randomly adds "a" before a word for no reason! It makes me look like I'm incapable of typing anything. I'd rather have legit typos and misspellings than the random crap that it does!

I'm waiting to hear what my raise % will be. I had a great review last week but my boss needed to get it approved by his boss and that conversation was today.
I'm trying my best not to cry in front of L, but I now have puffy red eyes and a headache. H is taking the day off tomorrow and we're going to visit him, so I hope I can at least keep it together while we're there. He is such a good man.
