I feel like complete and utter shit. My whole head is stuffed up yet my nose is still somehow running. It is raw from blowing it so much. Bfing people, is there anything I can take? Saline is not cutting it.
I need to go into work for a little bit. I don't even know if I should attempt makeup with my melting face. Between this, having my period (sort of), and having to take S to the surgeon, it's shaping up to be a banner day already.
You can put pressure with your thumbs above your eyebrows and/ or below you eyes on your cheek bone while pushing up on the roof of your mouth with your tongue. I saw that on FB or Pinterest and it actually kind of works for clearing sinuses. The other thing I've heard but haven't tried is peppermint oil. You are supposed to be able to put some in your hands and inhale deeply and it clears your sinuses.

I have the same cold as you and I use Afrin nasal spray. But you can only use it for 2-3 days max.

If you find yourself owing a lot, a good thing to do to lower that is increasing your retirement investment. If your 401k or equivalent is taken pretax, you will decrease your taxable income. Increasing our retirement contributions lowered our tax bracket, so we basically paid ourself instead of the government.
Well I think if you want to you can put in to take no taxes or at all. Like you set your number of exemptions and based on that they take taxes. So you could pay none and then pay it all at tax time?
I:D
I guess I don't even understand why someone would do that. Yea, your paychecks are bigger thoroughout the year but you have to save all that money anyway to pay that shit back. It makes no sense to me.
I think the theory is that you would invest that excess money so you are earning interest on it before you have to pay the taxes, versus the government holding on to it for a year, not investing it, and then giving it back to you.
I've had a headache since last night. This whole preschool thing is going to be the thing that finally makes me crack. I'm so glad I have a professional development day today. Besides a safety presentation in the morning and having to finish my supply order I don't have much I have to do today.
My period officially started this morning and I feel like crap. I want to eat everything, but the cramps make me nauseous so I'm just having Greek yogurt for breakfast. My mood has also been insane since yesterday. In the last hour last night, I got irritated, mad, super mad, cried, then was being sweet and loved with J, then irritated again lol. I hate being a girl sometimes.
We always always owe. My husband is a Damm cpa and we still always owe. I'm hoping now that we bought a house we will start to get some refunds. Pre-marriage I'd get around 2know back but that hasn't happened since 2009.
Dhs Bubbie's funeral is today. A funeral at 34 weeks sounds like a terrible idea. I'm going to be such an emotional mess.
He starts 2 weeks of call this afternoon which means I won't see him for two weeks. I'm already in a bad mood about doing everything solo for 14 days and I'm not even out of bed yet.
Henry is awake in his crib yelling that he is "all done sleeping mama!" and I keep yelling back that "it's still dark out so lay down!"
Thank the universe that preschool isn't canceled today.
I hate call days. He does 2 full weeks in a row?? That SUCKS. H just got off a rotation that was every other day and I wanted to cry. Now he's in the CCU and only has call once a week, but he could still be there late depending on how busy they are. But at least I can hope he'll be home early!
I know utterly nothing about taxes and how it all works but for the life of me cannot understand how people end up owing money.
One year we had to pay in over $1000. We were not prepared for that! DH was working 2 jobs, 1 FT and 1 PT. The PT job bumped us into a higher tax bracket (we had no clue) but each paycheck took out money like that was his only job (at the lower tax bracket). So we didn't get enough taken out of either paycheck and ended up owing.
I made this last night at moms night out, it's glass that I soldered. I'm pretty proud of myself and it was so much fun!! Ps: I had no Idea that solder was spelled that way.

I'm so sorry. Hugs to you today. Is your family cool with you going to the funeral? My grandma tried to give me a hard time about going to a cemetery when I was pregnant with Tyler. I went anyway.

The rabbi said something but my MI just pretended she didn't hear anything, lol. Ari will be at dc until shiva starts and I bring him to the house.
rjamz He doesn't have to stay at the hospital but is gone by 5:30am and not back until late almost every night. So basically its like he isn't even home. At least on the weekends he only rounds in the mornings and is home by 5ish if service is slow.
He did text me at 7am to ask what would make the next 2 weeks easier for me. Um, maybe asking before this morning?
imimahoney I'm sorry. I hope today is easier than you think it will be and your H is okay.

H doesn't stay at the hospital either, but is also gone before I wake up and gets home at least after J's bedtime if not later. It sucks. Part of the reason I'm going to NYC next week is that he's moving straight from rotation in the CCU to rotating in the MICU, which will possibly be worse? Ugh.
Tell him that big diamonds would make the next 2 weeks easier
