Poppy don't be embarassed. Cards get stripped and don't work. So I doubt they thought you were po.
Also this happens to me, but it draws from savings. SO I only have to deal with my internal shame of knowing I had to pull from savings AND pay a $10 fee.
I woke up with a terrible sore throat. I had strep so badly last year for almost 3 weeks that I'm terrified of getting it again. No white spots yet though!
I am so bored our of my skull lately at work. I have things that I could be doing but I just can't get to them. I'd rather stay here and waste my time.
My MIL is an ignorant witch and I can't stand her. omg.
I ignored DS's crying last night for the first time. He's usually a really good sleeper, but I do go in if he wakes up at night. Usually, it takes 10 or 15 minutes and he goes back to sleep. If he's not feeling well, it can take 30.
Last night he woke up at midnight and I was up with him till 3.
He woke up again an hour and a half later. I just laid there, not wanting to get up at all. He whined and fussed, but did not really cry much. 15 minutes later it was quiet. And then he slept until 7.
I'm kind of relieved, but feel terrible at the same time.

My H is fantastic and finished our Christmas shopping last night! Now we just have to wrap...
Also, ILs are spending the night w/us Christmas Eve and I need to clean my house so badly that I'm starting to freak the eff out. They're supposed to sleep in our bed, which is a whole other post in itself, but that means I have to REALLY clean our bedroom, which I haven't done in like, a year?
And ALSO, my daycare, which was previously going to be closed Christmas Eve, causing a heated exchange between the director & I and all sorts of scrambling to get an (unpaid) personal day, is now open that day, IF Nicholas will be attending (4 kids = enough to be open). So now I feel guilty and will be sending him AND have canceled my unpaid personal day so that I will get paid for Christmas Eve & Christmas Day. However, I was kind of looking forward to having that day to do stuff.
My boys are at home enjoying a snow day and I am at work. Booooo
I think Leo may be starting to teeth? Do they feel pain before you see any action on the gums? He was up from 3-4:30 am and would cry if we put him back in the crib. That is so not like him. He didn't have a fever. I finally dosed him up again with motrin and he passed out. He was cheery this morning. I can't feel swollen gums though. Or maybe he is sick without a fever? I hate the guessing game. I also hate not sleeping. :-0
Mine started pulling her ears and getting fussy before we saw anything.
My front door area smells weird. Just in one spot, but I can't figure out what it is. I smelled the shoes, but it wasn't that. Maybe it's the floor mat. It's so weird.
I had a dream that my mom starting talking to me about her sex life. Like she hadn't gotten laid in 6 years or something. (She and my dad have been married since 1980). Then I woke up and thought it was real. Shudder.
My boss won't be in for another 1.5 hours and it makes me want to shout with glee and run around and buy people cookies and shit. It's like a weight is lifted when she's not peering over my shoulder all day.
