I got a lot of research done today. Thanks everyone for your tips in my other thread.
We decided to get DVR service (finally!) and H is out picking up the DVR right now and I'm more excited about this than I probably should be.
Apparently my mom never received that check I sent a week and a half ago for the things she bought me (that I thought were gifts). So she accused me today of never sending it. I love being accused of being a liar. Yay.
*I swear my mom is usually more normal than this. She's been weird lately.
I'm watching It on tv. It's taking me back to when I was 10-11 reading the book for the first time and how the sex scene blew my mind. I must have reread it dozens of times.
I'm bummed because I can't go to the Sounders vs Rapids playoff game on Wednesday. I have to work and there was no one to switch with. May the best team win amberlyrose.
DH's work informed us we need to attend a coat and tie dinner tomorrow. THANK GOD I have a dress I can wear that still fits in my closet. Otherwise, I'd have to be "sick" tomorrow and take off work to go shopping. Because there's not a single decent place in this town to find acceptable clothes.
My 16yr old niece's first ultrasound appointment was today - and MY MOM was the one that had to take her. (Her mom, my half-sister, had to work). Mom called after dropping my niece back off at home, and told me to not make dinner plans. She picked up take-out pizza, "kicked" my dad out to his workshop, and we pigged out on pizza and wine while bitching at the unfairness of life. Fertility issues AND I get to be a great-aunt, all before 30. Wheeee!!! Also? At 61, my mom can drink me under the table. Hands down.
I've been having terrible cramps. My Gyn can't see me until Thursday but that's okay. He told me to submerge myself into a hot bath. That helped so much. I could only go up to my waist but my god so much better.

I am SO. TIRED. today.
I think partly because we haven't been sleeping well. I know it's been taking me a long time to fall asleep between all the armed home invasions and the creepy car we had the other night. I hate to keep bringing all this up, but it's really freaking me out and I NEVER have trouble sleeping, have always felt safe. Now I'm listening for every little creak or noise and I hate it. Hopefully it gets better.
I feel guilty because I brought home some papers to grade and can barely keep my eyes open. Probably won't be getting done tonight. I'm about to go lay back down for awhile.
DH and I just got notice that our financial planner passed away at the end of September. He learned he had cancer this summer and emailed to let all his clients know who he was appointing to take over our files while he was doing chemo. I am so, so sad. I didn't realize how upset I would be about this. He used to be a family counselor, so he really had a unique approach to financial planning and I felt like he really "got" us and our goals. It's going to be hard to find someone to take his place.
I'm in a bit of a bad mood. I think one of the docs I work with hates me. I keep getting questioned regarding what I'm doing. I don't just sit on my ass staring into a computer screen like she seems to think I do. I hope she chills out soon and stops with the rude bitchy comments. Since she's kind of my boss, I feel like I can't even say anything about it. Fuck. I love my job, but hate feeling like I can never do anything right.
1. FIRST thing as soon as I woke up and my eyes cleared otherwise I would dread it all day 2. no practice swings. pinch my stomach and go. 3. try to obtain a great deal of sympathy

I got my paragard put in today. It hurt a lot more than my mirena did. The doc had to open my cervix and that brought back all the memories of how much child birth hurts. I don't think I want any more kids.

This sucks:( Nursing is like 50% patient care and 50% charting. I know our nurses have to spend a lot of time on the computer.
It's so frustrating dealing with this crap! I'm not an ass kisser and often hang out in an office doing calls and going over physician reports, blood work and X-ray results. I hate how to be respected by her, you have to kiss her ass! It's getting to be so rediculous.
I don't normally like scary movies but decided to try and psych myself out with Paranormal Activity and the sequel and could only stand bits and pieces of each because they were so boring.
We went to the pumpkin patch today, and I put on the warmest thing I could find as we were leaving the house: a fleece pajama top. I figured I wasn't taking my coat off there, so who cares.
Then we came home, got the girls in their costumes, and headed right out for the Halloween event at the Children's Museum. I forgot about the pajama top until I took my coat off at the museum. Lol.
So I guess what I'm saying is: my costume this year was The Mom Who Has Officially Stopped Giving A Fuck.
Funny. That's what I have been going as for years now.
