Confessions?

[twoslicehilly]

A nap sounds better and better. It's 1:30, my dishes need to be done and so does my laundry. I spent all day and night working on pictures yesterday, so that I could clean up today before I had another shoot tomorrow.. now, I don't even want to put dinner in the crock pot. I want to nap.

[twoslicehilly]

I'm also pretty sure I'm going to watch true blood with out H, then pretend that it's all new when we watch it together.

[Dumbledork]

My kid sister had her baby yesterday morning. She named him Nikko. I'm still in the middle of side-eyeing it.

K was planning to take Bean camping this weekend for Father's Day, but if it keeps storming like it's supposed to, he's going to cancel the trip. I was really hoping for a weekend alone in the house.

[basilosaurus]

Nikko was one of my favorite towns in Japan. Is that where the kid was conceived?

[Dumbledork]

See, I was thinking it was Greek-ish. Still, neither have any connections to my sister or BIL.

[twoslicehilly]

Awful name.

Nikko reminds me of work. We use a nico to monitor patients with head injuries. I could probably never get used to it.

MH and I got in to a fight yesterday because he said he would rather lay on the side of the highway and die than come to the hospital where I work because it sucks. We have to compete with UPMC in Pittsburgh and we're still one of the top ranked hospitals in the country. We're alright but thanks for making a super douchetastic comment, H. I'm sorry we can't all be in the Navy and work at your super awesome hospital where everyone is apparently perfect. I'm still mad he said that. I love my job however temporary it may be and I also like the people I work with. Ugh.

Nikko seems like a nickname for me, it would be like naming your kid just Mike instead of Michael. My confession is that I parked in a maternity parking spot the other day when I had to run to the store. I have mastitis, I feel like I'm dying, and my kid has been clingy as hell. I swear there were like 6 maternity spots and none of them were used. I felt like a jerk.

[twoplustwo]

C and I have been problems since he went away to school. It seems like we always have issues when he is away, and do so much better when he is actually home. He comes home Friday night and I am a ball of nerves because I am not sure how things are going to play out.

Andplusalso, I am super nervous about moving to Fort Jackson, I don't have many friends here, but this is where I grew up, so I am not only leaving my friends by my family too. I am just scared I will become a hermit with the babies. Fucking anxiety sucks.

Jakjak- do you mind if I ask what mastitis is?

Oh yikes!! Hope you feel better really soon. Mastitis is my worst fear; dealing with thrush twice over has been bad enough. If it makes you feel any better; I'm giving you a free pass for parking in the maternity spot just for having mastitis.

Thanks! I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy

It's a boob infection that gives you flu-like symptoms accompanied by a hot, painful boob. It's the pits even if it doesn't sound like it.

[softspot]

This is more of a random, but I think it's weird that lurkers made the switch here & are still just lurking.

[Dory1988]

And now I'm kind of worried about having my second job. They only scheduled me one day at my new hospital so far but I'm 8a-4p there then I go to my other hospital for 7p-7a that night. That will be over 24 hours awake by the time I get home. I'm nervous.

Yes, it's misery. I thought people exaggerated the pain until I got it.

I barely have time to eat because of my kid so I'm not here very often, but we are stationed an hour away from Ft. Jackson!! Feel free to pm me anytime, add me on fb, whatever. We go to Columbia all the time!

I did not accomplish anything on my maternity leave to do list. Not finding a new job, house, cleaning out K toys, organizing the pantry. Nada. And I go back to work Monday.

Oh, I feel your pain. I was going to learn java script and begin the process of web design. Didn't happen.

People really have "maternity leave to do" lists? You are far more ambitious than I. My list?

1. Have baby.
2. Keep baby alive.
3. Keep self alive.

The end.

I second that list.
I stay at home, but C took off like 43 days when B was born. There was nothing on our minds but surviving and figuring it out.

Wow. My ML is the only time I have to do anything. I don't have nights. I don't have weekends. I don't even have time to go to the fucking grocery store and have to peapod my groceries because I work so much. It has nothing to do with ambition. I couldn't figure out a way to be product with my first LO. Now I know how and am torn between wanting to do it and not wanting to do anything but hold S (and sleep).
