I hired a new employee and they are annoying. They tell me all the microdetails of what they are doing. Just do it and move on. It takes them 3 times as long to do anything and then add it the discussion of the details on top of it. UGH!!!! It took them 15 minutes to send out a meeting notice the other day that was a copy of someone elses meeting notice.
The kids and I are off today. My husband has to work. A birthday party, REI and trader joes are all on my list since we have to venture to the burbs anyway.
I'm trying to decide if I want to take the little monsters somewhere fun today or just let them veg and watch a movie like they really want to - the only problem is that 2 hrs later they'll start fighting again. Ugh.

We are heading out soon to meet my sister and nephew at the bounce place. I hope dd doesn't want company because my shoulder still hurts.
At 7:10, dd disappeared from the monitor. I called out to her and she said "mommy I peepee and poopoo!" She had taken herself to the bathroom and gone all by herself! My big girl :,(
I did go in to supervise the wiping and hand washing because of the related incidents lately, but she did very well!
I have a chest cold and am trying to just power through it, but am not feeling great. As a result, the kids are enjoying more iPad time this morning than they usually get over a couple of days. They don't seem to mind, but I feel bad. Normally I limit use at home quite a bit.
Well, I had finally resolved to take her to daycare at least for the morning, but then she was so adamant about "no school," and "stay home?" I just can't. So I guess I'll have a 2-year-old's help today. I think H is judging me a bit.
I am so mean. I would have taken her anyway and told her I had to be at work. Lol
Woke up to an angry H because apparently the dog got into something and vomited on the downstairs carpet SIX TIMES overnight. Which means he's disgusting and kept re-eating whatever the hell it was. Fucking animals.
H works a late shift today so I'm on my own (with the baby) until 6:30pm. It's really cold outside, so although I technically could probably drive now, we'll be homebound all day.
I'm home with a sick Oliver. While I was at the GTG on Saturday, DH had taken him to the ski hill to pick up his lesson pass, and O delightfully puked all over the floor there. He hasn't puked since but he hasn't eaten much either and is just not himself. I should be getting work done but I think I'm going to go snuggle him instead.
I am off today and DD doesn't have daycare, which is good because she has her first little cold. We used the nosefrida for the first time and she was NOT a fan. She's been drinking a lot and just fell asleep on me after sleeping in till 7:30. I'm enjoying the snuggles. Once she's up later we are going to go get a humidifier, hoping it helps with congestion.
Not only am I home alone today, but DH took N to preschool for me, AND offered to pick up coffee and drop it back off for me.
I can't decide if it's because I ended up cleaning up sand thanks to his idea (large sand sensory box) several times last night or he's about to do something wrong LOL.
I want to be productive today, but I also want to sit on the couch and watch TV all day.
My "daycare is open and I'm off work, hooray!!" Monday has turned in to waking up to our furnace not working (it's 3 here, 61 in the house and thermostat is set at 71), my twisted knee being swollen and the head cold I had last week having moved in to my chest. FML.
Our fish died. I'm thinking we should just get rid of it and not mention it to DD. She only really noticed him every few days. Is that horrible? I'm not ready for the death talk.
Meeting with the diabetes dr in a couple hours. I'm nervous. I've hada few bad numbers but I'm hoping they will cut me some slack since it's only been 5 days.
Anatomy scan tomorrow! Praying for good news for once.

I think I might do laundry today, but I'm pretty low on detergent so I'm not sure how much I'll be able to do. It's really cold so I am planning to stay home for the third day in a row. Fortunately my kids don't get too restless even after being home a long time.
Nadia is having issues with her clothes lately she feels like everything is too tight and is uncomfortable. I might break down and buy her some more long sleeve t-shirts with nothing on them. I do kind of think it's unfair most girl clothes has to have a flower or bow sewn onto it somewhere.

I was going to pick up coffee and lunch today but packed a hodge podge of stuff and then forgot my purse anyways so I feel like I just saved $15 today that I should probably put into savings, ha.
Drop off was a shit show. We told her it would be a short day, but she was so upset when we left. I would have kept her home, but we just can't do these house meetings with her. I promised we would pick up right after nap.
Both kids have their check up today and they both will get shots. I'm dreading it. I plan on stuffing both of them into our double stroller and let DS watch videos on my iPhone.
We are meeting a new ped too. We all have the same family doctor, but I'm not sure if I want her for the kids, so I'm checking out other doctors to see what I think.
I'm super excited for my pilates reformer class. It's weird how I'm enjoying that more than yoga right now. There are only 5 people in a class so it's like a semi private lesson every time I go
I was an asshole to my husband motn. I seriously feel possessed motn sometimes. Like I can see myself acting irrationally but can't stop it. Luckily it no longer seems to phase him.
Do you guys have the "don't take things said MOTN personally" rule? Someone here mentioned that to me and it's been very helpful a.

Get some eucalyptus oil (or those vicks shower pod things) and put it in the shower while run it as hot as possible. Put some saline spray in her nose and Sit in the bathroom with her for 10-20 minutes. If she will take a bottle that will help move the saline through the nasal passages and then the nose Frieda should be more effective. HTH!
