In lying in bed, lurking on current posts from all over GBCNland, like I usually do in the mornings. S&B is planning a hair GTG in "Atlanta" and it's weirding me out. I mean, sure, every GTG I've been to, we've brushed each other's hair, but that's not the sole purpose. I NEVER lurk over there, so this could be totally normal and not odd at all. But, the idea of "Hey internet stranger, come over to my house and we can play with each other's hair!" is just too much for me.
Yeah, that just feels a bit creepy, but then, I don't really fiddle with my own hair much. When I was in college, a casual friend of mine happened to stand behind me in the chorus and she always liked to touch my hair. It was...weird.
I've been temping this month to gear up for my next cycle where we will be TTC and my cycle is all over the place. I know its because my sleep is crappy and not how it should when temping but I'm still annoyed.
Also, I can't believe we are TTC next cycle. Yikes!
My h had to leave at 5:30 to travel 1.5 hours away for a business meeting. So I had to get myself and the girls ready, and out the door by 6:30 to get them both dropped off at their separate daycares and to work by 7:15. I did it!! It was crazy and busy but we all got out the door clothed, snack for the girls, bfast and lunch for myself and dinner in the crock. I am so proud if myself.
My kid had way too much sugar yesterday. He slept like crap, I slept like crap. I really wanted to go to Target today, but I think instead we are going to have a lazy day at home so I can get him back on schedule.

Violet said Elmo, yellow and a close version of thank you yesterday! She is so not confident with new words so she speaks them very quietly and gets shy when you ask her to repeat. By the way, she's had speech almost daily for 10 days or so because the therapist had schedule openings due to spring break, and it actually made a noticable difference. That makes me wish we sent her every day.
Loft is having 50% off everything except Lou and Grey.
I just went on a spring spree! A coworker has on a gorgeous spring skirt today and it made me want cute spring things that ARE NOT MATERNITY!!! The last two springs have been maternity clothes for me.
DD's 2 year photos are today and I'm hoping she will be agreeable for them. I need a new pair of sneakers, but can't justify spending the money on something for myself. But I really need new ones. I think I can sing all the Frozen songs word for word. It's a problem!

I tried to hook myself up, but everything I wanted was only available in small sizes. Boo.

I go back to work on Wednesday, I have a pit in my stomach every time I think about it. I am sad about leaving Annabelle, but I am also having feelings of inadequacy. As in, I don't think I will do a good job at work. I don't like my job, and I feel like I lost all my intelligence during maternity leave. I also don't think I would be a good SAHM, so what would I be good at?? Ugh. I just want to cry. But I also get mad about that bc shouldn't I try to enjoy my last week?

6pm is a good website for deals on shoes. Maybe you can find some cheap?
I'm going in to work today to officially quit my job. I wish it were socially acceptable to just send an email or text in these situations. I'm nervous.

Whhhaaattt?! I didn't know you were doing this! Are you going to SAH with the boys? Or look for something else?

Last night was the first swim lesson in the new session. There was a lady who showed up with her 2 daughters for the parent and me class thinking she would handle both of them. The teacher told her that for saftey reasons it had to be one on one. Her husband was there but not going to come in the water. It confuses me that she would even think that would be OK. She ended up giving the younger girl to her husband and doing the class with her older girl. After class she had both girls in the locker room trying to get them changed while her husband sat outside on a bench. I immediately judged he H as one of those uninvolved dads.

I know the feeling. I feel like I'm not a good SAHM. I have a friend who got her PhD and then decided to be a SAHM. She gardens, knits and makes almost all their food from scratch--if they need chicken broth for a recipe, she cooks up some bones right then and even makes her own noodles. It makes me feel so inadequate.

I don't like people touching my hair either, I attribute it to being curly. When I met DH he put me in his phone as "Amanda don't touch my hair"

Good luck! That's nerve wracking.
I haven't slept since 5am Tuesday morning. I'm scared that now I will never catch up even a little and it's going to make me a complete psycho.

I was proud of myself for cooking last night,we had pasta with a jar of sauce and steamed frozen veggies. Maybe that can help you feel more adequate?

At the time, part of it was just a persoal aversion to random physical touch, but it was also just odd. At the time, my hair was really long and smooth, so I guess if it's right in front of you (like it was when we were rehearsing), it can be tempting, but it still was kind of weird.

WOW, that would make me feel inadequate as well. I have a hard time feeding my kids some days...

Yeah, she's looking forward to buying their own home this summer so she can get some chickens and maybe bees to make her own honey.
Last night, I was proud of myself for making chicken broth--except I had to go out while it was still cooling, and when DH put it away, he left a third of it on the counter. After the day I had, I was so mad to have to dump it! And DH was like, "it's only been 2 hours, it still good, right?" ^o)
