I need a nap already. I was up half the night coughing. M is still sick and has thrown up three times already. The dog shit int he house. I am so tired.
We are supposed to drive to CT today (kill me) but our pup is still sick. The vet had us start her on a bland diet of rice and chicken and she's eating (yay!) but she threw up again this morning. I'm not sure driving two hours with a 9 day old and a vomiting dog sounds like a good idea.

I tried to stop for coffee this morning but the line was too long and I was already late so I left. Now I'm stuck with our boring office coffee. I wanted pumpkin spice dammit!
DS has a BAD case of croup. Took him to the pedi yesterday and got oral steroids, nebulizer, and preventative inhaler. He's a hot mess. DD is teething.
MIRACULOUSLY they both somehow STTN. Hooray for medicine!
rugbywife - I thought of you and your PC point hoarding the other day. A friend had $200 saved up! He bought a whole cart of groceries and then donated them to the down town mission. It made my scheme to buy gift cards with my points feel tainted. lol
Also, did you hear/see there is a new PC mastercard with 3 times the points? DH has the MC, but I don't.

I just got the mc yesterday!! I am a pc points dork.
DH and I share grocery shopping duties. I'm lucky that he is very good at it, unlike what I hear about typical guys. So we have separate PC points cards. He was looking into the PC mastercard and getting me a joint card but I still want MY points. I'm not sure how that works. Seems like we could have one MC with 2 PC cards attached but a pool of points?
C is at school, H is at work. I HAVE to grocery shop today. I also want to apply for a substitute librarian position at a cool library. However my throat hurts and I might go back to bed. Motivation, why have you forsaken me??
We bought the kids' Halloween costumes yesterday. The boys both wanted to be skeletons for some reason. DS1 chose a "scary" skeleton costume and DS2 chose a dinosaur skeleton costume (so is he technically a fossil? lol). DD is going as Sheriff Callie. Her cowgirl hat arrived yesterday so she has been running around the house calling herself "Sheriff Callie Katie" and shrieking things like "yippe kay yay and ye hah." She keeps calling me Peck. It is so funny.
I posted in my own thread for advice, but C climbed out of his crib this morning and walked right into the bathroom while I was getting ready. I guess it's no more crib 4 lyfe over here!
One of my favorite coworkers is leaving the company and his last day is today. I just emailed him to see if he wants to walk across the street so I can buy him a coffee. Mostly because I want a hot cocoa. He emailed back and said he already had a Starbucks today, but that he had to buy it himself. Boo. Now I have to decide if I want one enough to spend the money and drink all the delicious calories. lol

I had a great morning planned and DS1 had thrown up nothing three times. I can't have him go to preschool and I tried three sitters with no success. This was a big brunch this morning that I've been working towards and I'm on the board of the club. I'm disappointed. Plus my DH was already at work and said, 'that's part of being a mom.' I get that, but dude, I'm disappointed.
DH brought me breakfast! Yay! But no coffee, boo. He said he didn't know my Starbucks order, which is valid, since I change it a lot. He said he didn't want to call and wake me up but for coffee I would have been fine with it. Ftr, I would have requested decaf due to DS's reflux.

H's fried called and asked if we wanted a box of donuts. I say sure, thinking it was the Krispy Kreme boxes he was selling for a kids fundraiser that are popular around here. He shows up with a huge box of 9 packs of donuts from a failed delivery to a local grocery store ( he's a truck driver). Each pack has about 10 donuts in it. What am I going to do with all these donuts?
I turned my alarm off yesterday and forgot to turn it back on. When I'm not on ml DH and I get up at the same time, so it's his backup.
For some reason his phone didn't charge last night so was completely dead and he overslept big time :/. I feel so bad. I helped get DS1 ready and shoved them out the door but he is going to be annoyed all day I think (with both himself and me, not just me).
I am tired. Last day of the FY so I need to make a big final push today to get some of these cases done but instead I'm regretting that third beer last night. Stupid Thursday night football.
Ugh, I wish today was ours. We have to get most stuff out today, but I've got some stragglers that will be 9/30. Blech.
Ok, one good thing, my favorite daycare teacher said I looked like I've lost weight. Done another .4 lbs this week after getting back to MFP after the move.
I've given all closing power to DH. I told him unless he's calling to tell me the buyer get her head on straight and closed, then do not disturb. I can't handle the stress anymore. He called our contractor to ask how much the additional mudding would be and he said $150. So DH was nice to go back to the realtor with us hiring the contractor to do it this weekend or putting the money in escrow and she can hire her own.

Lol! I got to $440 and cashed them in. But I am already back up to $50 and just got the card that gets me 2x the pints. @vicmo, who do I have to sleep with to get 3x the points??
I invited my mgr to get coffee with me, and he invited another person (who was nice to remind me we have a meeting at 10 at Sbux anyway). We got down there and the line was long and they didn't want to wait, so we came back up, empty handed.
I really want to go back and get my coffee & breakfast sandwich because it's 9:15, and I don't want to wait 40 more minutes

We're moving! After months of DH wanting to move and me fighting him kicking and screaming (mainly because I don't want the stress of showing, packing, finding a new house 40 mi away, moving with a 9 month old), the roles ar reversed and I have been pushig to move sooner than later.
We looked at a couple houses in new city a couple weeks ago and talked to our selling agent pre-vacation. Had a couple meetings with both agents this week and did tons of cleaning. Photographer is coming today and we will e listed today and on the MLS tues. Looking at houses/neighborhoods on Sun. Hoping and praying this goes fast!

Lol, you can just call and apply. They want to see a certain income threshold which you meet, although I don't know if being on mat leave will affect you.
We just got our other one. They gave us 12k, so not as high as the 20k my other card has but still fine. I applied online and there was nowhere to indicate that I was on Mat leave. lol. I will wait til Jan to apply for the other one.
MIL watches DD#2 and she is absolutely the best with her. DD is only 12 month. Lately MIL has been putting her on the toilet when she goes. Two days in a row baby has pooped in the toilet. I can't believe she actually did it but she seems comfortable with trying. It's crazy. However, my MIL insists on taking pictures of her poop. She actually saved one of them for me. I don't need to see the proof MIL.
