I didn't see one started so I'm making one! One of the doctors I work with is retiring and it was his last day in office. It made me all teary! I can't imagine how it must feel to be done that after 38 years. We all had a nice time at the end of the day. Ate cake, snacks and a few beers. I can't believe I'm done working with him!! It makes me sad!
My cousin humiliated me today. I've gained a decent amount of weight over the years. I'm just lost the motivation to do anything about it. Anyway, we're at my niece's graduation lunch and he comes up to my end of the table to say bye. He says "Idoinjuly, what happened, why did you get so big?" I just looked at him in disbelief. I was sitting across from dh and next to my sister. He looked at DH and says "Why did your wife gain so much weight?" He speaks with a heavy accent, so I'm not sure if my h understood him, I haven't brought it up again. Seriously, I thought I looked half decent and he crushes me. Unfortunately, this type of "helpful criticism" is not at all unusual in our culture. FML, seriously. The only good thing is that it's kind of jump started my motivation, so I'm getting closer to wanting to do something about this weight.

idoinjuly I could kick your family in the fucking face. I'm so sorry he hurt your feelings. You are seriously gorgeous and the fact that someone could make you feel anything but makes my blood boil.

H had to go to the store just now to pick up salt for our ice storm tomorrow, among other things, and I asked him to pick up tampons. I texted him the kind I need.
He texted me a picture of the box to make sure it was the right one lol. I kind of really hope someone was walking by just then, wondering why some guy was taking a close-up shot of some tampons.
Thank you so, so much speckledfrog. I know I've gained a bunch. I mean, my clothes, mirror, and pictures tell me so every day. I just can't wrap my head around saying something so devastating to someone. I mean, I know that sounds dramatic, but holy shit, it was awful.
My h is home! I wasn't expecting him until about10:00 but he got here at 7:30!!!!! I'm so happy! He's keeping me up with his snoring, but I don't care!
My dog has the most god awful farts tonight. She stinks so fucking bad. If anything forces me to the couch, it will be the stinky dog, not my snoring husband!
I was supposed to go back to work tonight to make sure my staff reset the rooms correctly, but I forgot because I was having awesome sex with H. Oh well. I'm sure it's fine.

I'm still up waiting on H to come home. He worked for 12 days straight and then they called him in tonight because someone got sick. He was supposed to be home by midnight but I haven't heard from him. I'm not worried about his safety, I'm sure he's still at work but I miss him and wish he could come home and not be so stressed. Poor H.

I'm having trouble sleeping tonight. H is on call, so his phone has been ringing all night. I also got sucked into The First 48 and now I want to see how it ends.
I slept like crap last night, so I gave up and got out of bed at 5:30. DH wasn't far behind me either. The good thing is we have nothing going on today, so I think we'll be lazy.
I slept like crap last night as well. When my alarm went off at 3:15 I did not want to get out of bed. I cut my leg and split my finger wrapping packages last night and both sting like crazy. It's going to be a long day.
I have been awake with Leo since 3:30. :-( Teeth I think and once he woke up he had slept long enough that he couldn't put himself back to sleep. At least he is in a good mood.
We are traveling today so there is no point going back to sleep. So I am rushing around packing the car and praying he will nap in the car. H has to usher at graduation for an hour and then we are hitting the road before the storm hits. OMG this is why we don't go anywhere. It is so much fucking work to get out the door. I am picking up H so that means I have to get two kids, a dog and all of our crap in the car by 8:45.
We are bringing the dog and she is an anxiety mess. In 30 seconds I turned my head and she pissed all over our carpet. Just unloaded. She had been out 30 minutes before that. I could fucking kill her. She makes everything a million times harder then it needs to be. She is on our front porch until we leave because she can not handle the hustle and bustle of getting ready.
I am so so so excited to spend time with my family thought.

It's raining cats and dogs here. My neighbor is really sick so I'm headed to the mall to pick up a few small items to finish her Christmas shopping. Blah.

I don't care if you've gained 500lbs, no one should ask you this. I am so sorry

I am so. hung. over. Yesterday was my last day at my old job, and few near and dear friends/coworkers took me out for drinks. These guys can DRINK, and they're all bigger than me, and I tried to keep up, and it was...not good. lol
I didn't even make it to the second leg of last night's festivities, and I am barely functioning today. OLD.
Today was supposed to bee my sleep in day, but h didn't go to bed until 6 am. So, when L woke up at 7, he couldn't wake up. He woke up as I was already in changing her. Then he's irritated that I won't go back to bed! Dude, I can't fucking go back to sleep now. Plus,I know he would fall asleep watching her.
Between h's snoring and the dog needing to go out a million times last night, I'm beat. I got up because ds was awake and had been for 30 minutes but I think he went back to sleep. So I think I'm going to try to take a nap on the couch. Or maybe I'll go back to bed...except I already have my coffee.
I'm waiting to pick up my mom at the airport, and I am scarfing down the egg mcmuffin I picked up on the way so I won't have to hear any lectures on nutrition if she sees me. It's like being a kid again! Lol.
MH makes sure he finishes all the pop tarts before his mom comes for the same reason.
