Big doctor's appt today. Ugh. I'm gonna want to puke or cry until about noon.
Dh has two on site interviews scheduled for January, and he called up the guy hiring for the job he really wants to let him know. Guy said he'd rush to get an interview set up ASAP. Here's hoping!
I'm so fucking annoyed and not sure how to proceed with my day. My DS3 has had a slight cold all week and of course it's been an extremely busy work week for me. I thought I'd finished everything up and could spend today with him but last night at 8:00 I got a call that we had a clear to close for a client. And this horrible lender has taken us a month past our original closing day so I can't make my client or the sellers wait until Monday to finish this. But he doesn't know if they can fund it so we might not close today anyway. And I need to figure out if I need to send DD to daycare or not.
I'm going to be so fucking pissed it I send him and we don't close today!

It's 425am and I have been awake since 130am. H does this really annoying thing of waking up in the middle of the night, not checking the time, and then thinks it's time for him to get up for work. So this morning, at 130, I heard him downstairs making breakfast. Being the nice wife that I am I went downstairs and told him to go back to bed. He fell right back asleep and I've been up since.
I was gonna use my last kid free day to clean, but I think I'm gonna nap instead.
Today is ugly sweater day at work. That is the only thing that is motivating me to get up and moving.
I need a new show to watch before bed on Amazon or Netflix. Just finished round two of watching the Tudors. I've been watching Are You Afraid of the Dark? in the interim. 1992, anyone?

I'm dreading the amount of schlepping I have to do today. Mega grocery shop. MEGA booze shop. Thankfully Henry is in daycare and my H is staying home with Clare.
There's some minor family drama going on with H's parents, sister, and us that has the potential to cross over into major drama territory. It's equal parts long history, petty annoyance, BEC, and stupid shit (which is why I'm being vague about it). It's just wearing on me. I'm at the point where I don't this there's a good way out of it. Whatever the resolution is, there will be bad feelings lingering for a long time. I'm just so torn up about it.
Oh, and for the first time ever, I'm wearing the same pair of jeans to work two days in a row because I hate all my clothes and how I look in them. Blargh.
Our Christmas cards came yesterday and they turned out so cute. I love them.
I have a bunch of errands to run today but all I really want to do is nap and stay in my pjs with E al day. Ugh.
Last week I only had 1 scheduled shift for next week so I told my manager if she needed some extra bodies in the store to throw me on for a few hours. Yesterday I saw that she had scheduled me for an EIGHT HOUR SHIFT on Christmas eve until close. I kinda freaked out because it meant I'd miss E's first Christmas eve. I called one of our holiday people and they agreed to switch shifts with me so I'm out by 4 instead. I wanted more hours but not THAT. lol. I think I fixed it though.
I had the best night sleep last night thanks to NyQuil. Jax had a cold which of course turned into this croupy crap and then Dh and I caught it. I decided to just knock myself out since the kids better and no one would need me. I'm feeling super productive this morning and already finished payroll. I'll probably go lay back down and fall back asleep, lol.
Looking through the SS reveals makes me happy and sad. Happy because there is so much joy and thoughtfulness on the board and sad because I chickened out and didn't particpate.
It's FRIDAY! Making cookies today. I love love love sugar cookies with frosting.
Last night I dreamt I was pregnant. I was so upset and confused in my dream and that feeling has stayed with me.
The other night I ventured out to do the Christmas shopping while H stayed home with the girls. I loved it. Some time on my own, dinner out; it was great. I must be the only weirdo who doesn't mind the mall during the holidays. I also liked maternity clothes. lol

Last night my FIL was bragging on SIL and her husband, as usual, and it really got under my skin. We were at Lucy's promotion ceremony/everyone-gets-a-medal deal at gymnastics, and alllllll he talked about was them. BIL quit his job bc he hated it, without anything else lined up, bc "it's not like they need the money'. Fucking hell, man, DH and I can't fix my car til probably January bc I don't get paid anymore til then. It's like he's patting himself on the back for doing such a great job with SIL, meanwhile DH will never grow up and get a good job, and BIL (his other son) doesn't work, and like dude. This is Lucy's event. Shut up about your other grandchildren for a minute. It's SO OBVIOUS who are the favorites here. Ugh.
Makes me feel like a total loser, ya know? And of course my mom was there.
Sorry, venting. I'm just feeling low now. Why did I invite him?
I have been having so much fun with my kids lately. They are so funny and cute and they just make me smile. I can't wait to spend the weekend with them getting ready for Christmas. DD and I are going to see Annie tomorrow with my friend and her daughter and it should be a ton of fun.
