vent inside...

I guess this can be my "tuesday tantrum" or whatever the gay shit they say over on the old ML is.

I am just in a HORRIBLE mood. For basically no reason other than I had to come to work today, and I didn't want to.
It is pouring down rain, and the dogs woke me up at around 3:15 because the thunder was so loud that it was shaking the house and they were freaking out. I didn't get much sleep after that, and what sleep I did get was kind of intermittent between the lightning, thunder, and the fact that our bedroom is about 1000 degrees, and it's impossible to sleep in there without sweating your ass off. We need to get a window air conditioner for our room, but we're trying to save money now for the baby, and so we just don't have the funds to get one.

Anyway, people at work are annoying me, we have 2 weeks left of school, when every other school in our city got out last week, or is getting out before the end of this week. I have no patience left, and the students are tired of being here too, so they're being crazy....

I just want it to be summer break already....

I'm sorry you are having a rough day. Seriously, buy the a/c unit. As summer and your pregnancy progresses you will really need it. See if you can get a good deal on CL or something.

that's a good idea. i will check out craigslist. i have found some good deals on there before. Thanks

Sure! Trying to stay comfortable is the name of the game in pregnancy.

A box fan can definitely help as long as it still gets cool at night. I think I would die if I was pregnant over the summer here. I would have to spend all day every day in the library or something. Even with our (not as powerful as it need to be) window unit, my thermostat reads 80+ all summer long. I'm not even going to admit what it says right now.

So, yeah. I agree that a window unit is probably a good use of funds.

Welcome to 1st Tri! lol. I remember hating everything.

Get the a/c, you'll be so much happier.

Definitely get a window A/C. We have one because our bedroom gets hotter than hell in the summer, even with central A/C.

I feel like I just saw one at Wal-Mart for under $200. It may not be the best quality, but it would at least cool things down!

have you tried a huge box fan? that has saved me when our bedroom is hotter than hell.

we currently have a big box fan, the ceiling fan, and a smaller desk fan all going at once... it sounds like we are inside an airplane engine. lol

How was the ultrasound?!?!?!

It was good! We saw the heartbeat, and it was at 130bpm.
The baby was .83 cm long... SOOOO tiny! They said my due date is January 12th!

OHHHH... ALSO, we have no AC at school. SO, It is hotter than hell all day then hotter than hell at night while I'm trying to sleep. Thankfully our downstairs is still cool, so at least when we're awake at home we are nice and cool.
