I am not looking forward to court this morning. Opposing counsel refuses to make any sort of eye contact with me. Ever. Not even for a moment. The magistrate yells so loud that it hurts my ears and then I have to ask him to repeat himself. He often isn't even yelling for a purpose. Do.not.want.
We are supposed to get a few inches of snow later today. The woman sitting next to me on the train is wearing snow pants. Lol. That's a bit much, lady.
Of course I on the other hand forgot gloves and it was zero degrees this morning. So maybe never listen to me!
H told me the other night that he was unhappy we never have sex. Sigggghhhh
DS woke up three times last night. After the second time I set my alarm back so I could get extra sleep. Nope, dog had to poop at 5:55. After I got DS ready I snuck my finger in his mouth and that evil molar is finally popping through.
I have the stomach bug that daycare emailed about so I have the bubbleguts for the third day in a row. DS CANNOT get it though. I can't take off work this week and DH is OOT. Solid poops so far. I cheer every time I change a poopy diaper this week, I am officially crazy.
I'm running out of wrapping paper and I can't find any that I like. Lot of gifts this year since there wasn't one big gift and clothes are suuuuper on sale right now so I got q lot for my budget.
DS woke us up at 5am. I think he's constipated. I'm hoping the applesauce we gave him this morning will help.
I wish I liked coffee.
A little prune juice always worked for us, even when he was a baby. Apples can be binding unless it's apple juice, and even that never worked for us. I hope he is feeling better soon. Poop issues are the worst!
I was up literally all night with M. She has a persistent cough and every time she would start to doze off, she'd have a coughing fit. I brought her in bed with me twice and she coughed all in my face. Ugh. I'm so tired. The pedi opens in 5 minutes; I hope there's something they can do for her.
I love 1D's "Story Of My Life" so much. Sooo much.
I'm a little jealous of all the snow. Getting 2" - 3" here is a big deal.
I'm taking off tomorrow - AND I'm proud of myself. I walked into my boss's office, told her I was taking off, put in on the schedule, and walked off before she could try to give me crap about using one of my vacation days. Bam!
I can't eat anything until sometime tomorrow. So now I'm obsessed with food and drink. I want a smoothie. Or tea. Or an apple. Or a clementine. Or oatmeal. Or salad. Or breakfast. Or lunch.
Jack will not take off his snow pants and boots at school. So he just looks like a dirtbag wearing them all day. And then he comes how with the world's most rank feet from sweating.
We shall see if he listens to our threats today. He says he wants to be first in line so if he doesn't have to get dressed for recess he can achieve this. Sadly I remember having a similar mindframe back in the day. Why is first in line so exciting?
I'm trying to sell tickets I have for a bball game online. Someone emailed me offering more than I'm asking. I should be super sketched out and not reply right?
I'm sitting in the dermatologist waiting room. I thought my appointment was at 8:30, nope! 9:30. I thought my referral was expired, nope! Still good. I thought my copay was $40. Nope! I apparently overpaid last time, so I have a credit on my account. I'm all over the place today.
I plan on sending out all my Christmas cards later while watching When Harry Met Sally and drinking hot chocolate.
H told me the other night that he was unhappy we never have sex.
We're in the same boat. And I know H isn't happy about it, and I sort of have been in the mood of just not caring...
But we did have sex last night, partially b/c I felt bad that it had been almost a month without it, and partially b/c he did the bedtime routine AND laundry while I was out running an errand, and I would like for that to happen more often, so i thought that sex might reinforce that concept. haha.
I'm back at work today. My fever broke yesterday and I've been on antibiotics for 36 hours so I'm not going to infect anyone. But I still feel awful. Horrible.
I want to go Hoooooome! There is just way too much left to do before Christmas. Finally got my Christmas Cards all signed, addressed, now I needs stamps so I can mail them. once I get stocking stuffers for DH & the kids I am DONE SHOPPING! then I have to warp everything, bake about 50 thousand different baked goods for the various events this coming weekend. DD has not been letting DH or I sleep at all. Why, at 5 years old does she feels the need to wake us up more in the night than she did as a baby? We're dragging ass.
At least today is a short day. I have one meeting and then a team luncheon and I can go home after that!
Damn. Well, at least he just had a few bites of the applesauce. We didn't have any of the normal poop-inducing stuff. Ihate to hope this on my mom, but I hope he poops today.
STBX raged at me over the bank account and some other stuff this morning at 4:15. Then I couldn't go back to sleep. He's projecting a lot right now.
I have to attend part one of a four part training class that really isn't appropriate for my position. I don't know anyone else who is going, so there will be no one there to poke me if I fall asleep.
I made truffles last night and I don't get to keep them
I have another random. I bought sephora stuff and got a sample for primer with blemish control. I have dry skin and rarely get pimples. SD is 12 and is getting them. Is it awkward/rude if I give it to her? I tried talking to her about her skin and provided face wash etc and she said she doesn't like washing her face that much because the hair around her face gets wet so I left her alone BUT she complains about her skin. I don't want to offend her or overstep but I want to help. Ugh this is awkward. So do I offer her the primer sample?
I'd offer it to her by saying "Hey SD, I got some extra samples from my sephora order--would you like them?". If you make it more like sharing the wealth rather than "hey, this might help your skin issues" she may be more inclined to take them.

I would buy her some proactive alone with other age appropriate beauty gifts for Christmas. A primer sample isn't going to help much.
Well yeah she needs an overall skin care routine but I tried going there over the summer and it didn't go very far so I'm hesitant to keep pushing the issue. I'm not sure where the line is if that makes sense. I have no idea what goes on at her moms so I'm not sure if its being addressed there and I should back off or if I should try to help.
I'm house sitting for my bff all next week. I'm going to beg her to take my kids one day (or hopefully two days) the following week so I can work and not have to use vacation time (which I have very little of). I figure it's a fair trade.
I told dh no sex until we make sure I don't have cancer. I figured no real bc + possible chemo = dumb move.
He can't argue with me but you would think he's dying. Grow up, H!
I remember seeing a couple of your posts on this, but I had no idea it was this serious. When will you know? I'm sorry you are having to wait I know it must be stressful.

Aw thanks!
I'm supposed to get the results of the needle biopsy this week. If those are inconclusive doc wants a real biopsy. He said I could have cancer, or cat scratch fever, or a benign thymus or thyroid tumour, or tuburculosis, the fun list of possibilities goes on and on! Lol.
I'm feeling more zen about it now. Whatever it is we'll deal with it,
