My fucking computer won't charge. It's literally like 3-4 weeks out of warranty. I will be raising hell at the damn Genius Bar if they don't fix it for free. Stupid thing is only a year old!
Ugh, got an email from DH last night that the at-sea testing he's doing isn't going well, and he probably won't be home Saturday. To be fair, it looks like we're getting a big snowstorm and he likely wouldn't have been able to fly in Saturday anyway, but I was hoping that he'd maybe be able to get home early instead. Three weeks of him gone was manageable, the idea that it's going to be more than that is stressing me out.
I am NOT looking forward to dealing with the snow and entertaining bored kids by myself.
My fucking kid charged $234 on itunes unlocking shit on some stupid game. I'm not even sure how he was able to do it - it was 4 separate charges. I can't believe they didn't ask for the password once (and he doesn't know the password).
I was LIVID!
Luckily Apple took mercy on me and refunded the money. But I had to dispute the charges on my bank account too, so that means I had to cancel my debit card and will be without one all week which is a super pain in the ass.
My anxiety has been pretty high for the past few days. I think it's all this relocation planning and really thinking about my life that has me crying at the drop of a hat. PDQ Then yesterday in the grocery store I ran into my ex best friend. She and I know each other sincer kindergarten (30 years), but drifted and stopped talking about 10 years ago. Our lives became quite different and I tried, but she hurt me and I think there was a weird underlying jealousy. She started her family at a young age (18) so while I was in school and working on my career and partying, of course, she had a husband and a new baby. We remained pretty close anyway.
Until she became pregnant with her second child (5 years later). She asked me to be godmother and I accepted. Then she became distant. I had talked to her older brother and HE informed me (not realizing the situation until I told him) that she'd chosen so and so as godmother. I was hurt, mostly because she wasn't honest with me. I would have understood if she told me. I called her a million times when I found out her baby was born because I had a gift for her. She told me she was too overwhelmed. I finally saw her a month or two later and that was it for our friendship. Our families were like family and all of that just vanished.
It's like running into an ex boyfriend. I still feel a connection of some sort, but it's just weird. We asked about each other's families etc. We didn't even exchange numbers...I told her I was moving in the spring and she wished me luck and that was all. It hurts. But the past is the past.
And Lucy cried for an hour last night about never seeing H. We have to fix this.
 This is really sad
Are you guys still pretty much at a stalemate?Â
We spent a nice day together as a family yesterday, which is the reason Lucy brought it up, I think. She does the same with me- spend a girls day with her, and at the end she cries because she misses it just being me and her.
I had already asked him if he could ask his mom to come over in the afternoon at least once or twice a week so he could go to bed and get up around 7 to hang with Lucy. We will see.
What do you do when your s/o's snoring has gotten out of hand? He wakes me up all the time. I feel bad because he can't help it but I want to sleep past 4:45, damn it.

That happened to us too. We had to change to in-app purchases setting saying it needs to ask for a password everytime. My sons don't know my password either so it was a shock to see $400.00 worth of charges on my credit card too. Apple refunded mine too.
I'm sorry ProfessorArtNerd. I hope things turn around for you guys soon.
I don't know if you guys remember me bitching about my dad's rehab a while back when he had hip replacement. He had a fall when the handicapped bar gave out in the shower on him. He also had a nurse assistant grab his leg and try to move it when there were big signs all around his bed saying not to. Well, there's a big article in the newspaper today about how many people have been hurt there. One woman died on Christmas after an aid dropper her. So much of the story sounds like what happened to my dad. The took mobile x-rays and told the family she was fine. She ended up having two broken legs. I feel sick over it.

Another really cold day here. We were the only district to not do a 2 hour delay. The cleaning lady is coming today so me and the boys are going to run errands. Hopefully a relaxing day since everyone seems to have colds.

This happened to us before, too. if you go in to settings > restrictions, you can turn off in app purchases. I made sure to set this on all of our devices after we got those crazy charges and I check them every few months to make sure it's not turned back on. Apple refunded ours, too, thank goodness.

I put headphones in and turn on the White Noise app on my iPhone. It usually drowns his ass out so I can get another couple of hours. But I feel you so hard on this.
ProfessorArtNerd, I am so sorry you guys are going through this. I'm thinking about you from across town. (heart)
I have so much weight to lose and feeling overwhelmed about it. I know I have to take it one day at a time but I so want to feel a change in how my clothes fit. This is only my second week. I am back on WW. I know it will happen. Just wanted to whine.
I am suppose to have a WI tomorrow but it looks like we are getting some bad weather so that will be delayed.

I am on 2 different wait lists to Jimmy Jallon when the tonight show comes to LA next month. I will die if we get tickets. I did find it funny that I had apply for them. You have to fill out a profile and send them a pic. I had to give a reason why I should get tickets too.
Hugs to you and your babies, ProfessorArtNerd! I hope your day at work goes quickly.
My Timehop pictures from 3 years ago make me happy and mad and sad. Happy b/c I know and I can SEE that I can get into the shape I want to be in, mad and sad that I backtracked so far.
I stayed up WAY too late watching Making A Murderer. I'm not even that into it!
My mom gave us a frozen turkey pie yesterday that she had made (h loves it). I picked it up on my way to the grocery store. Well, I had forgotten about it until we got back to the van and dd pointed out that the dog ate the pie. Yup, he sure did. Nothing was left accept the pie plate. He was in the back of the van but somehow managed to get over the seats and into the passenger seat to grab the pie.
Needless to say,his stomach has been quite unsettled. I had to take him out three times in the middle of the night. At least he seems to be feeling better now.

For the past year (maybe 18 months) he has slept in the guest room. He has - finally - scheduled a sleep study. I miss sleeping by him, but I am so much happier getting a full nights rest. This is the best option to save our marriage.
I'm meeting the guy I've been seeing for lunch today (we work just down the road from each other) and I haven't gotten ANY work done this morning. Whoops.
(((ProfessorArtNerd))) i'm so sorry your sweet girl is having a tough time. i loved your shark picture from the aquarium!!
i left school to go to a training thing 20 minutes away. i got there and discovered that the training is next week. i suck. i walked back into my first block and the teacher used me as an example of someone who needs to read carefully.

this is why we sleep in separate rooms most nights.
H fell asleep on the couch the other night and stayed there all night instead of coming to bed, and I slept SO well. Separate sleepers are definitely on to something.

I left Myles playing in his room and ran to pee. I was gone two mins tops. I hear a thud and a cry. I find him in Allie's room under her Barbie accessory container. He's never left his room without one of us. I guess it's time to use the gates and shut her room off. Thankfully it just scratched him.
