Woke up to find that I had left 2 ounces of breast milk on the counter (defrosted, so should have gone in the fridge) as well as 4 huge chicken breasts for DHs lunches that had been cooling on the counter. DH will still eat the breasts, I know him, but that milk is toast .
Omg. I am ready to give up on Facebook. I can't stand all the idiots who are copying that stupid privacy post thing. It is clogging up my feed and it makes me lose faith in people's ability to discern what is real and what isn't.

This and people who support Donald trump for president really weed out the idiots.

DD is still asleep. I guess I'll leave her since it's not like I have anywhere to be...
I was planning to glaze some windows today (fun!) but it's supposed to rain, so now I'm not sure what I want to do...Maybe I'll go to Old navy and try some stuff on to order online? Or clear out DD's outgrown clothes/organize her dresser? Hmmm...

Even a lot of people that I generally don't think fall for This stuff were this time. Come on. Be smarter people!
DS's overnight pull-up (Goodnite brand, for big kids who wet the bed) has leaked 3 nights in a row. It's not the Goodnite's fault, there's just SO MUCH PEE. We limit DS's liquids before bed, and he goes pee before bed. How does his little bladder hold so much?! I'm tiiiired of washing all his bedding, all 4 pieces (comforter, pillowcase, sheet, and mattress protector). We only have 2 of everything, so I have to wash it right away.

L slept almost 11 hours last night with just one brief wake up at 4:00 when he grabbed his cup, took a few swigs, and went back to sleep without needing anything from me. I didn't get out of bed until 5:15!
We have day care orientation today. I can almost smell freedom!
So DH is going to Brazil in a few weeks. This was up in the air for a while but only recently confirmed. Except now it's too late to get a visa and he has to fly to DC and get one in person. I'm annoyed the travel coordinator or one of his bosses didn't anticipate this problem. He's traveling so much the next few weeks. It's hard.
Dd woke up at 6 . she usually sleeps until 9 or 10. I am so exhausted. It wouldn't be so bad if she actually napped but she doesn't. And DH is working 12 hours too so this could be a very long day.
DH had his surgery yesterday and they kept him in the PACU last night. Once my mil takes DS1 to preschool I'm going to head back over, he should be discharged after rounds. He's doing really well and even facetimed with DD before she got on the bus this morning. I'm glad the hospital is really right around the corner, less than 2 miles away. I was able to pop home and put the kids to bed last night and then send my MIL over for a bit to see him and then go back.
Even though it was all routine and all, gah is it nerve wracking to have someone you love have surgery.
First, E put himself to sleep last night. I fed him, and was going to start my usual night time routine of swaying him while pacing the room and shushing. He was fighting me, so I simply put him in his bed and he was happy. He sucked on his fingers for about 30 minutes while I just stared at him and cried because "my baybee doesn't need me!" And he just... fell asleep. That was 9 pm (which is late for him).
Then he only woke up once at 4 am to eat and back to sleep. Didn't wake up again until 6:30.
I should feel better rested than I am, but of course, there was a few times I checked on him to make sure he was breathing.
I was just wrapped in my towel after a shower and looked down and the towel had blood all over it. So I'm trying to figure out where it is coming from and realize my nipple is bleeding profusely. WTF?! I don't breastfeed and never bled even while I was pumping and trying to BF.
I have an employee that is not very intelligent. It's very difficult to constantly remind her that at her grade level, she should know what she is doing.
We are re-organizing and I've talked to my boss about moving her to work that is easier because everything is like re-teaching with her. And I've brought it up more than once in her appraisals and it still doesn't sink in.

It's my due date! I have a lunch time massage scheduled and a dr appointment this afternoon. I don't even know if I want to get checked today because 1) I'm worried I have not made progress and 2) I'm seeing the doctor with fat fingers lol.

Have you tried a diaper insert inside the pull up? DS1 is also a big guy and a heavy wetter and I've found that the Goodnite/diaper insert combo keeps him dry about 75% of the time.

YOU ARE HOLDING ME BACK FROM THE TOP OF THE LEADERBOARD.

I have such a bad headache. Jack is still sick, I need to finish packing, and H thought last night was a good time to point out I spend too much money. (I do need to reign it in, I definitely throw money at things while stressed, but that convo could have waited until next week)

I have to put this out there. One of my Fb friends is a professional (and very talented) photographer. Not a momtographer but someone who has a legit business. Anyway, she is always posting about how photogs are expensive because of how much work they put in behind the scenes etc and I totally agree! It makes sense.
Now my rant: she is always asking for help / free advice on her FB. Today she wants to send a picture of her eye to any medical people that can give her an opinion.
It bugs the shit out of me even though it has nothing to do with me. Like, practice what you preach. Go to a doctor if you need an opinion and pay the professional.
