I put mulch in the front flower bed and I think I made a mistake choosing black. I'm annoyed but I don't want to take it out and start over. I know I'll hate it if I keep it though.
I like black mulch, makes the flower and foliage really pop! I bet it looks great, but I'm sorry you hate it!

I called in sick to work because both girls slept at my parent's house last night and I have been so freaking tired this week. It's rare that this happens so I decided to take advantage of not having to get any kids ready on the morning.
I slept until noon. Omg.
Eta a flameful part. My mom has no idea I called in sick.
Students who show up in my office need to tell me their NAME. I have 5 students stopping by between 1:00-3:00. I have no idea which one you are because we have never MET.
Is there such a thing as pre-partum depression? If so, I think I have it.
Yes. It's very real. Talk to your OBGYN. They can help. I didn't have it, but I have friends who did. It's not as common or discussed as PPD, but it's totally not your fault and fixable with meds and therapy.
I'm meeting up with ElizabethBennet and everyjuan in San Francisco tonight! So excite. I usually hate driving in SF because my car is a manual, but I'm stoked for tonight.
Also, the timing couldn't be better. I asked EMT to be my BF last week and he asked for a few days to think about it. It's been a week and he hasn't said anything and it's breaking my heart. We've seen each other every night this week, but he remains silent on the subject. I was actually going to tell him I needed space last night if he asked to hang out, but he was on call so I didn't see him anyway. I'm going out tonight. He's working all day tomorrow. We needed this break. I hope he misses the shit out of me. And I REALLY hope I see come cute boys tonight.

Hah, you know what? I did a quick run to the garden centre and bought some lavender. The purple looks GREAT against the black!

I don't want to poop on your parade but my mom did this. Started out ugly, still is ugly...
Yesterday's shoe trip was a success! I picked up 1 pair of tall leather riding boots, 2 pairs of booties, 4 pairs of ballet flats, and 1 pair of leather sandals for $170. The riding boots alone normally retail for $250.

I am beyond livid at H right now and trying to decide when to talk to him about it. I caught him in a lie and he doesn't know yet. I am still on maternity leave but agreed to go into the office for a few hours today to help out so I don't want to have a big fight before, but I don't know if stewing on it is worse. When I get home DS1 will be home from daycare so I won't be able to bring it up until after he goes to bed.

I have been looking forward to this so much! I seriously can NOT wait to meet you guys. I'm sorry about the emu, but given everything that's going on I'm really glad you'll be able to get out and have a good time. AND we will definitely see some cute boys.
I missed my period 3 days and decided to test last night. It came up positive, but faint, retook this morning and it's clear as day. I am shocked because we just started last month, I expected it would take a lot longer. Now time to make a doctors appointment. Eeeck!
@rumpshaker I was diagnosed with antenatal depression in my second trimester. It is absolutely a thing, and it is even less talked about than post partum depression. I went to a psychologist who specializes in reproductive health and it made a world of difference for me. Huge hugs. Its such a lonely place to be--don't be afraid to get help.

Systems are down at work so there isn't much for me to do but hang out all day. I'm an hour in and so far have finished the vogue issue with kimye on the cover and planned where I'll go for lunch.
I'm so excited to just get to chill out and read all day!
We are finally having a fun weekend after weekends of...not fun stuff. Tonight we're having dinner at an outside park/cafe that plays live music and jillianashley6 will be meeting us there. Tomorrow we're having a picnic at the Dallas Arboretum then heading to the kids museum. Sunday is David's socccer party and they're handing out trophies. Yay for a fun weekend!

I'm working from home. My cat, who is 98% of the time unconscious, has a severe case of the zoomies. Also it sounds like he is wearing little shoes - how can a 6 lb cat stomp like that?
I just applied for my (internal) dream job. I then saw the people who would hire for this role walk out of an interview room with a candidate that has far more experience than me.

This week: -3 finals for college -A giant order of Spirit Wear that needed handled, and now we're missing an entire box of shit. -The giant, 300-person fundraiser that I used two companies for because I'm stupid. All the team moms decided to just throw hundreds of dollars randomly into each envelope so I could try to figure out who paid for what, for 21 teams. -League Opening Day tomorrow (I am handling pictures, and the Little League mascot who is coming). Update: SUDDENLY NO ONE HAS PICTURE FORMS. -An elementary client who has learned the words CUNT and PUSSY and USES THEM. He's shaking it up from simply screaming YOU SEXY MOTHERFUCKERS all the time. -A uterus which has decided to die, which is just NOT FAIR since it's also been bleeding since February (IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T HEARD). -K's softball game tonight, and moms who suddenly can't work in the concession stand.

Last night my work competed in a event which you build giant structures out of canned food items. All the food is then donated to a local food pantry. Anyway, our structure won a trophy! #winning rocks!
I did this one year! They haven't done it in a few years in Chattanooga though. We won too! Congrats! What was your structure? Ours was a Hershey Kiss, "Kissing Hunger Goodbye". Oh wait. Pm me your structure if you're comfortable. Forgot about the crazies.

Work is hosting a HH tonight and I'm excited about going but my ute is attacking me from the inside. Plus I feel so bloated and meh. But I'm going because free booze and dinner.
I get to see DH in 1.5 weeks and I'm SO HAPPY. I miss him so much.

We have a family photo shoot booked for tomorrow. The outfit I order for myself over two weeks ago, isn't being delivered till Monday! It was supposed to be delivered yesterday at the very latest. I am super annoyed. FedEx can suck it. :mad:
everyjuan - The Academy of Sciences is fantastic! I went all the time in school, but haven't been back since they huge remodel. Everyone has said it's even more awesome now. I hope you get a chance to go.
I didn't feel DS1 until like 22 weeks (thanks anterior placenta!). Not only have I felt DS2 much sooner, I'm only 20w and can already feel him from the outside. It's my favorite part of pregnancy, so this is particularly exciting to me.
