I've been up and down all night with Clare. She's been throwing up every four hours since 230 yesterday afternoon. The last dose of tylenol I gave her stayed down, so I think we may be getting through the worst of it.
Ugh. This is hitting her SO much harder than Henry.
I lurk on the makeup thread on CEP, and it gives me hope that maybe when my kids are older and not so needy, I'll have time to make myself feel pretty again. Then I think, nah, I'll probably just take more naps.
I'm seriously regretting chopping my hair off back in December. I suck at styling it and it doesn't really lay right when I try to leave it curly. It ends up in a stubby ponytail mist days. I went out and bought prenatals hoping they will be magical pills that make it grow fast.
Ethan threw up at over my kitchen at 5am. I'm hoping it's only because he worked himself into a fit, and not because he has a stomach virus. He refused to eat for most of the day yesterday, so I'm not that optimistic

My uncle's obituary came out and it's so factual. I'm sure my aunt (his sister) was grieving and just trying get out the info for the memorial etc but it's almost impersonal. His wife didn't want anything in the paper out where they were living (but over 100 people came to their memorial anyway so maybe the culture there is different, west coast v CT) but I do wonder if something else was written there.
I dunno. It's dumb. It serves its purpose but I feel like there could be more said. There aren't even the usual adjectives like loving etc
My H went down to sleep on the couch at 3 because he wasn't feeling well and the dog went with him. I was SO EXCITED to have the bed all to myself for 2.5 hours lol. I feel bad because he wasn't feeling great, but....I still really enjoyed it.
My dog is so stupidly stubborn... she's gotten to where she won't eat breakfast. And then she's starving by the time we get home. I don't give her extra though.
The only day I care is daycare day - which is today. She's sitting 2ft from the bowl refusing too look at it. Come in dog - YOU ARE A HOUND - eat the damn food!
It is cold today! Half my neighbors did a half-assed job shoveling and their walks are super icy. I was so nervous about being that jerk that I made sure our sidewalk was totally clear yesterday. It didn't take that much extra effort, so I'm pissed that I almost fell walking to the bus because my neighbors were lazy.
I hope all the New Englanders are doing ok; I know we got nothing compared to the snow you had!
My h forgot to lock the front door last night! I'm a bit pissed. I know it was an accident; he didn't bike to the train yesterday as he usually does (and parks behind our house so comes in the back). Since he walked, he came in the front and then had boots, coats, etc to deal with. But how do you not check the front door before you go up to bed? When I'm home alone I usually check it twice.
DH snoozed his alarm until 6:55 this morning (went off at 6). I was up at 5:45 with the baby, made his bottles, laid out his clothes, got myself ready. So as he was getting in the shower at 7:05, I gave him a kiss goodbye. I could hear the baby starting to fuss. I feel like I SHOULD feel bad about leaving, but newp. I could easily have done bottles/clothes one-handed while holding the baby if DH had gotten up and in the shower when his first alarm went off. Consequences, yo. I consider myself extra nice because I got the dogs' kennels ready to go for him.
My H is still really sick It takes a lot for him to stay home from work (he's THAT guy).
I know I say this every Wednesday these days, but I LOVE aerial hoop so much. I love that it comes so naturally to me and I can usually get things the first try. I can't wait for the next level!
Sorry for all the sick kids! Hope they're on their way to recovery.
It recently clicked for me that we have hard water and therefore my hair hasn't looked the same since moving into my house five years ago. I used to get so many compliments on my hair. I googled about this and tried an apple cider vinegar/distiller water rinse. I did this hast night and my hair is soft and shiny! I think this very cheap solution is going to get my hair back to where it was! I'm so excited!
I'm at the dentist and I'm so nervous. I can't wait for this to be over! I'm hoping I don't need to root canal, they'll know when they get in there. Yuck.
I randomly decided to watch a syndicated episode of Scandal the other night, but I think I accidentally watched a really pivotal one and I wonder if I ruined the whole series for myself now. I planned to Netflix binge on it sometime, but a lot of stuff seemed to get resolved. Yes, this is a huuuuge problem. Lol

I'm nervous bc this payroll thing still isn't resolved. The college closed early Monday, and was closed yesterday. Ten minutes til theanager gets in to hear my vm. I'm feeling out bc the supervisor gave me such weird answers when I talked to her- "oh, well you're not the only one who wasn't paid. I don't think he will approve running payroll for just you" (ok, so pay everyone yiu stiffed?). "Well with the snow coming..." (Huh?!) im so frustrated. And our mortgage is due Friday at 9. I don't want to ask DHs parents for help, God damn it.
Tried out our new Sbux with a drive-thru yesterday, and I love it already. They're not really busy yet, so no wait, and the baristas were so friendly and perky AND got my order right.
I have a big, deep under the skin zit on my chin, and it is taking some serious willpower I have to leave it alone. It's not red or really irritated yet, so if I don't touch it, it will probably go away on its own.
Both kids have sniffles/slightly runny noses, so I'm kind of expecting phonecalls from school/daycare today. It wouldn't hurt my feelings to have a reason to leave work early.
Ugh I'm feeling bad for all these sick kids and family members. Hope everyone heals up soon!
We saw the Book of Mormon last night and it was hilarious. There was a woman a few seats down in the row in front of us who was the obnoxious laugher/clapper of the audience which totally doesn't bother me but the old man in front of me was about to have a conniption. It was almost as funny as watching the show.

My dog was too cuddly this morning so I'm running late. Tried to stay and give her some more attention. She isn't doing well with my return to work, even with the Xanax. Guess it's back to the vet to swap up meds. Hopefully she does better next month with my sister watching her while we are gone having a playmate daily.
