Thursday vents

I'll feel better after complaining so join me.

DS woke up 3 times last night. Wth kid, you are five months.

My sinus headache is gone but my glands at swollen again. I'm still on an antibiotic for strep from last week. I just want to be healthy.

July has sucked majorly. It needs to get better right now.

we're creating horrible sleep habits while on vacation and I'm just pretending being in his own bed at home next week will automatically reset him without any consequences. wishful thinking I know.

on the plus side, we finally ditched the swaddle!

I put on Demi panel maternity pants this morning. The full panel is getting tight and I refuse to buy new pants at 36w. The Demi panel was also tight and very uncomfortable. I made it 30 min at work before grabbing scissors and cutting it. Either I'm fatter or this baby is bigger than last pregnancy.

I created a moms group on Facebook last week and we were supposed to have our first meet up this morning but those who originally said they could make it have cancelled so now we aren't going to meet until next week. I was looking forward to meeting some new people!

[cincodemayo]

I was in the kitchen in only a bra and my H all the sudden grabbed my back and popped a pimple I was apparently sporting. DAMN did that hurt, and now I can still feel it.

I'm supposed to get a wax tomorrow and I have a stupid ingrown hair on my bikini line. Damn it. Can I still do the wax or am I stuck? We leave for the beach on Saturday and I was really looking forward to not dealing with shaving all week.

I offered to host a moms club event at my house today and the turnout is greater than expected. So now I'm feeding 30 moms and kids in my small house. Yay. :/

Wtf? Does he normally do that?

Ha. Not usually, unless I ask. He's normally pretty grossed out by it. BUT, (this is probably a confession) the reason he did it was because I'm always trying to squeeze the blackheads on his nose and it pisses him off.

I'm so fed up with my ILs not making any effort to spend time with DD. I have invited them over multiple times but they always refuse saying we live too far (less than 30 minute drive!) that we should go to their house instead (hm, same distance! No, they do not have any difficulty moving/driving, they are in perfect health). DD is almost 9 months and they have come ONCE to our house to see her when she was just a few days old. This week they went to the beach with their 2 grandsons, they didn't even think to invite DD. They are the only family we have in this country so it really pisses me off that they can't make even the smallest effort.

I really need my eyebrows done but I have no one to watch J. At least he can't judge the unibrow yet.

I have to watch my little cousin this afternoon but I don't want to. Yesterday he was so bad, I did so much for him and got no thank you and he just had an attitude and kept complaining about the baby.

Related confession: H had a cyst on his back and it was kind of magnificent to squeeze, like a gigantic pimple. (And I am normally grossed out by blood, but pimples are okay, LOL.)

I'll warn you this is petty and unimportant. DS2 is 4 months next week and not sleeping through the night. Which is what it is. BUT, every time someone asks us how he is sleeping, DH is all about how he doesn't sleep all night, we aren't getting any sleep, it's hard that the TWO of  us haven't slept through the night in so long, blah, blah, blah. UHHHHH, no. I EBF, so I'm the only one who get's up at night with him. He sleeps just fine when I wake up, nurse, and get him back down. Most mornings he will even have to freaking ask me if he even woke up the night before. Don't act like you're not getting sleep buddy!

[kershnic]

I am feeling really bleh and lonely for some reason...

Crazy things are happening at DW's work that make me nervous. Some promises have been made that I'm worried may not be honored, and that would suck a lot. We stupidly stayed up until 1am talking about it.

One of my staff resigned today and she's going to be hard to replace due to language abilities.

I want to move and get started on the life I want to build, but we can't for another 2 years. I'm scared to make the changes that need to be made here.

How's that for vague venting? I think I'm lonely because I have all this shit bouncing around in my head that I can't share with anyone other than my wife.

DH used to do the same thing. I had no problem responding that, no, he slept, I didn't. After a few times he got embarrassed and now wakes up with DD to let me sleep in the morning

LOL, my son is 10.5 months old and DH is still complaining about him being a poor sleeper. The best part? My H works overnights so doesn't even know how DS is sleeping unless I tell him. It's like he wants pity points from his friends or something.

A house just listed in our dream neighborhood but I think it'd a tad too small and at least from the pics online the layout might not work. No showings until the open house this weekend.

Ugh! Can't our dream house just come on the market already! I want my own space back!

[timorousbeastie]

Today is not a good day. DD slept like crap last night, so I am dragging today. I have to go to the funeral of a friend today. I just realized the only funeral appropriate clothes I have are the maternity clothes I bought for my grandmother's funeral when I was 7 months pregnant this past winter. So now I look fat and am way too hot. (And I realize I'm focusing on my clothes so I don't have to focus on the loss of a really good guy way too young. Fucking cancer.)

WTF, this would annoy me. Less than 30 minutes is not far. Sorry they suck and are not willing to come to you once in awhile.
