It's a WFH day for me so I'm still in my PJs. I'll shower at lunch.
H's job is incredibly sucky right now. I feel so bad for him. I would tell him to quit, but there's a chance that if he sticks it out a little while longer that he can transfer to another office. And I know he truly does not want to quit. Anyway, we had sex last night and that seemed to help his mood, lol. I guess I can at least do that for him, haha.
Someone on my Facebook liked a post titled "10 Reasons to Make Masturbation Part of Your Wellness Routine" and I can't stop lol'ing about that. Awkward.
Oh, and I'm super excited for October 1st because I've been saving my Amazon cart for two weeks in anticipation of the 5% cash back starting tomorrow on my Chase card.

ewall- the masturbation story would be even better if it was like a coworker or something.
I starting typing out this long vent post about my MIL because I'm on edge and trying not to call her out on her craziness, but then I decided not to subject you all to the crazy. Let's just say she is lucky she is dealing with "adult" wandering vs. teen or college student wandering.
ewall, sorry your H is dealing with that, job stress is the worst! lol to the masturbation story on Facebook, though!
wanderingenough, crazy MILs are so so frustrating Sorry you have to put up with that!
The only thing I can think of right now is that MILO SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT!!! Kid is 14 months and this is the very first time he ever has. I am so happy!
I woke up at 2 after a nightmare last night. DH was really sweet and I'm grateful. I'd love to escape the office for a 30 min nap today but I have a chiropractor appointment. I'm sure it will be fine though!

I got up to pee at 5am, blew my nose since I have a cold, and immediately felt wetness down my face. Grabbed my phone for a light and I was dripping blood onto the sheet. Yay bloody noses. I'll be washing the sheets later today, hope it comes out!
I had nightmares all night last night. I woke up four or five times from them. I'm sooooo tired. It's definitely a coffee kind of morning.
I'm impressed coffee doesn't bother your digestion. It tears me up inside.
I can only drink very small amounts. Like, a latte with half the normal amount of espresso, and then I only drink half of the latte. Luckily, since I don't normally drink coffee or caffeine, I don't need much to feel the effect of it.

Thanks guys. I think I'm just frustrated because her pattern is to cause drama/have a meltdown/etc., and then when she realizes H isn't going to put up with it she blames all her "stress." There is never a real apology, just a lot of "you don't understand my lyfe" and tears. The part of me that is exhausted with this pattern has to bite my tongue from saying "you know, if your stress is so great that you lash out unnecessarily at those around you, maybe it's time to call a therapist." But I know that will solve a whole lotta nothin.
Yesterday was fun but tiring. Monday my lower back/right hip was hurting so bad and yesterday I carried G around half the time (part just carrying, part in a ring sling) so I am very much looking forward to my chiropractor appointment this morning. My deductible resets tomorrow so this will be my last appointment until I really have to go back.
Oh! And today we are going to the bank to finalize paperwork on our loan to build DH a shop. Hopefully it will kick him in gear to get places called and get estimates so we can get moving on getting it built. I'm excited.
I am off work today which is nice. I'm going to lounge around a bit and then do some cleaning!
I also have to go talk to our apartment secretary and see if they are dropping our rent this month. Awkward. We have been out a full shower and bath tub for 5 weeks!!!!!! Luckily we have another shower but we are paying for 2 full showers and a tub and haven't had use of them for the whole month of September and it's STILL not done. So annoying, so I hope they take money off since we aren't getting what we paid for.

Are they remodeling the 2nd one, or is it broken and they're lazy about fixing it? Either way I agree that you should get a discount.

amaranth They had to replace and remodel our main bathroom. It was leaking through the walls apparently. The contractor finished up everything almost 2 weeks ago... We are just waiting on ONE knob to be put back on. We tried doing it ourself last week but we didn't have a piece we needed. We have mentioned multiple times to landlord and maintenance guy that this is getting ridiculous. We've been so patient, but enough is enough. This is so abnormal for them to be this scatter brained. Everything else has always been fixed and completed within 1-2 days.
There is also a huge ripped off paint section that will need plaster and a paint job in the bathroom where they ripped some stuff up, but I'm not even asking for that to be done. So it just makes no sense!!
wanderingenough That sounds like someone in my family. I wish I had a solution for you...but no one in my family knows what to do with our person. ((Hugs)) I know it's hard.
SO, I got a really cute Bama maternity shirt in the mail....but can't figure out who it came from Looks like Amazon didn't attach the gift receipt/card. I've hit up all my family and they've all said no. I know there are a few of you who have my address....anyone want to own up to it? It's cute! Just need to know who to thank
But can she cook? Might be worth it for a free meal! My love of food might override my distaste for someone.
Normally it would for me too, but she wants to get pizza, and we had pizza last night for dinner (so much for the meal I had planned...). And leftover pizza today for lunch. So this bums me out lol.

ewall- ((hugs)) to your DH...hope things improve or he finds something better soon. Yay for sex though!
katiek- way to go Milo! It's about time (C still dream feeds so hasn't truly STTN but I can't imagine how tired you are at this point). Hope he keeps it up!
MrsMB- hope you survive today and can catch up on sleep tonight!
wanderingenough- ((hugs)) PITA MILs are the worst. Good for you for being the bigger person...sounds like she needs a good therapist!
We have a for sale sign in front of our house and go live within minutes! I'm stoked and hoping this goes super fast!
Tired today...apparently I have a pinched nerve from carrying C. Twice this week I have woken to throbbing pain from my shoulder blade to my fingers in my right arm. I guess I need to wear him more (instead of carry).

My trip home sucked, it took 5.5 hours thanks to an accident on 95 in Delaware (normally it takes ~4 hours, less when I don't hit traffic) and I seriously almost peed my pants twice. What am I, 80? At least I'm home and got my stuff unloaded and in the apt without anyone stealing it (I took each load right up to the apt instead of putting it all in the lobby first)

ewall Sorry your H is having a tough time at work, it's so hard to watch your spouse deal with that. LOL at the masturbation like from your friend.
travelbug Yeah they seriously better give you a discount!
luv2rn4fun Yay for officially being on the market! FX!
MrsMB You know I didn't send that to you, lol! I hope you figure it out. I hate when Amazon drops the ball on putting a slip inside, we get some Comfort Kit items sometimes that have no info at all and then I don't know who to thank and that bothers me.
HoneySpider You mean it's not YOU?! HA! Kidding! I figure out that it was my other SIL....who hasn't sent me anything from there in the past. Mystery solved!
