H is having trouble hearing again but denies it. I'm gonna cut a bitch. All day today,"what? I can't hear you". "I was making noise with whatever, what did you say?" Now I realize why the Tv is so fucking loud. It's been awhile but spending all day with him put me over the edge.
DH is going to be WFH through the end of October (DS2 will be about 6 wks old) and I am so fucking relieved. I honestly didn't know how I was going to handle pp recovery, a newborn & a toddler on my own.
Gap sent me two of the same tshirt I ordered for DD1 and only charged me for the one I ordered and I have zero plans to do anything about it. It was only about $7, so that helps ease me conscious!
When I was a kid there were rumors that a house in my neighborhood was haunted. This was 30+ years ago. I just saw a FB post about that very house. I decided to Google the address and it is on several haunted house websites. I'm creeped out and feel validated at the same time LOL. Idk if that's a confession or a random.
ETA I should've posted this in the ransoms post LOL
Is this house in SoCal? I want to know about it, I love the stories behind purported haunted houses.
I came home today telling myself that I was going to be a calm, loving parent tonight. It lasted about 20 min until my kid lost her Shit when I told her she couldn't take her paci out if the house to dinner. She's three! She screamed bloody murder the entire car ride. And then I got mad at her. I can't even keep it together for one night. Ugh
I went into Mac and spent too much money. And I want to go back tomorrow because even though I told the guy I lost all my make up and brushes, he didn't sell me any brushes to go with the make up he sold me. I cannot apply said make up with only a blush and foundation brush.

Unsolicited advice.
Have you tried gradually cutting the tips?
Will was a hardcore addict. I started slowly and cut just an itty bitty amount each night for like, four nights. Then got a bit bolder. Within a week, he was completely done and never asked for his paci again.
Tomorrow is the one year anniversary of my grandpa's death. I've been listening to sad songs and crying. Sorry I'm a Debbie Downer.
I'm sorry. Losing someone you love is never easy. If you find the time tomorrow, maybe indulge in his favorite food or a hobby or activity you enjoyed together. I've found that sometimes these types of simple rituals help me feel better, as a way of honoring their memory.
Over the weekend, my H gave our 9 month old a whole hot dog. We were around a whole bunch of people and he already had it all cut up so I didn't want to make a scene, but I kinda hate that it happened. I'm not sure which part of this is flameful - that it happened or that I care. I feel dumb about something though.
ETA: she fucking loved it. Gone in like 5 minutes.
Aww mama, don't feel dumb. Sometimes the "stupid" things feel like they matter more.

Not your fault. She's acting like a terrorist. *hugs*
I don't know left from right. On more than one occasion I got mad at DH because i told him to turn one way and he went the opposite of what I wanted. I have to make my hand into the L to know left. I need an intervention.
I don't know. I thought she would have a few years before she had hot dogs. Lol. Because they're gross but also delicious.
She will soon be entering the phase where she wants nothing to do with any kind of meat at all, and you'll be ECSTATIC when she eats a hot dog. DS2 is going through that now (DS1 did too around 16 months) - he won't eat chicken, ham, beef, nada. But he will eat a hot dog. Pink sludge, nitrates, I don't care, it's protein!

I'm so sick of studying for the bar exam that I keep wasting time by watching clips of Amy Schumer's show. And I only feel a liiiittle bit guilty about it.
