My dad's melanoma surgery is this afternoon, my mom has hit defcon 5 freak out as well as my sister. I was a bit shocked yesterday when I heard the surgery is going to be 6 hours long but I think some of it had to do with the plastic surgeon fixing everything up at the end.

I woke up at 1am feeling like I was going to throw up. I managed to get back to sleep, but I'm still feeling pretty awful this morning. I do not want to be a good daycare provider today.

Lucy was a weepy mess this morning, and really working my patience- until we saw an obese squirrel digging on our lawn. Thanks for the mood change, Chubby!
Morning sickness, ugh. I'm going to weigh 400lbs by the time I have this baby, bc I'm simultaneously starving and nauseous. Eating calms things down for a bit. I'm not slim to begin with. Oy.
I am feeling more "together" than I have in a while. My boss promoted me then hired someone to do a lot of my job, so I'm feeling less stressed at work (but with a raise). We got books on shelves and pictures on walls in parts of the house this weekend so it's really starting to feel like home. I'm getting into a habit of meal planning so H and I are eating healthier and dinner is less stressful. And it's autumn, my favorite time of year.
I just hope I can hold onto this feeling. I can't remember the last time I felt this balanced and simply content.

I have today off to go to the dermatologist for a few issues, one being a bug bite I've had since May.
Sounds great but having a sub in my room, especially with the status of my class right now, actually brings a whole host of problems and parent notes. I will also be out on Fri for a specialist appointment with DS.
I plan to counteract this by getting 5 report cards done after my appointment and working on the kids/ xmas lists so there is less on my plate.
Totally jacked up my back on Sunday and I am still in pain today. UGH~! I want to sit on my couch with the heating pad all day, but here I am at my desk for the next 8-9 hours!

No spread vibes would be appreciated!
Definitely thinking about you all today. Good luck!
I've got to get on my Christmas shopping. Usually by this time of year we are halfway done but I've been slacking. Part of the problem is I'm drawing a blank on anything good to get the kids. They do not need any more toys. I thought of getting tickets to Disney on Ice but they are still a little young and like to have something to unwrap. Also, the ideas I do have, H keeps shooting down for one reason or another
I have tomorrow off! Yay! And I get to hear the baby's heartbeat first thing in the morning. It is crazy to me how much of a kick I get out of that. I am so excited to meet this little person.
I'm contemplating making stuffed peppers tonight because we have leftover marinara in the fridge. Last time we made them, DH couldn't stop talking about how great they were, but I can't remember at all what we did or if we used a recipe.
I need to come up with an alternate form of exercise for the rest of this pregnancy. CrossFit is just killing me and it makes me exhausted more than energized. Running makes me have to pee and yoga just doesn't feel like a real workout. I don't know what to doooo.
FIL and his wife are watching Andy this weekend while we are at a wedding. I'm working on an email to send him about, well, how to take care of Andy, and I feel stupid writing it. I don't want to come off as this over bearing stressball type, but at the same time, FIL and SMIL live 4 hours away, aren't really involved grandparents, and aren't good about making sure there is food in the house when the 3 of us visit. So.
I feel like I need to say "Andy eats three meals a day plus morning and afternoon snacks". Which is obnoxious to most people, but I can't assume they get that. UGH
@missusbee I would feel the same way. Can you send some of his favorite snacks, and tell him to ask for those if he is hungry? I'm sure they will figure it out! I get it though, I have anxiety when I leave my kids with my IL's, too.
I took my mom to the hospital yesterday for her biopsy. Really anxious about the results. They had a tough time getting a sample out because the spot was so dense and had very little fluid around it.
peachykate - I hope everything goes well with your dad!
ProfessorArtNerd! OMG, I missed your announcement! Congrats to you and your family! Hope the nausea stops soon.
It's my first full work week in almost a month. Boo.
I'm still tired from not sleeping well while we were camping this past weekend. It was worth it though. I think I found a new happy place. I already want to go back! But when it's warmer, lol.

kaylie and I convinced our Hs to dress up as Harry Potter and Ron Weasley for a Halloween party, and we're going to be Ginny and Hermione. I'm so excited, but I'm annoyed my H is being so grumpy about it. He knows how much I love HP, and I promised if he did it this year I would never ask again. I just wish he would learn one spell, and get into character a little bit.
My kid brightens my day. So far this is my favorite age for her (she'll be 2 in a couple weeks).
Last night I was getting her ready for bed and was putting new pjs on her. Once they were on, she looked down at them and said, "Oooo! New jammies! Toot! (Translation: cute) Show daddy?" Then she went off to show H her new pjs. Gah, she kills me and makes me laugh all the time.
