You can't really see my gloss and I had to lose the headband - too painful, lol.
I don't think I've mentioned this before, but you look exactly like our pediatrician. I have to remind myself that you are not the same person when I see her so I don't start talking about gbcn.
There are about 5 old ladies talking about walking their dogs outside my office. Theyre discussing when they walk their dogs, you have to look to make sure the dog pooped, and that the dog isnt just sitting. WTF?

I feel terrible. I have a fever and have made a zillion bathroom trips this morning. I'm pretty sure my intestines are completely empty. I've also had a fever that was 103.1 at its highest, but it's now more like 101.6. I called my doctor at 5 am and left a message asking if there was anything I could take, since I'm nursing. It's 10:45 and she still hasn't called me back.

Guys, I'm in pure hell right now. Two sick kids and a sick dog.
I luckily thought to put DD1 in a pull up (she's been PT for over a year) because she is sick (hadn't had diarea though). I just had this feeling I should. The baby has a fever too and slept for 15 hours. She woke up freaking out. Drenched in sweat. I put DD1 in the playroom and ran up and was dealing with the baby and trying to get her in the tula (and realized she has 3 teeth about to cut through on top of all of this). DD1 starts screaming that she pooped her pull up. At that exact moment, the dog threw up yellow bile all over the bathroom (thank god it was the bathroom).
DD1 was a mess when I was trying to rip the pull up off (she hopped up on to the toilet) I almost got sick. The light in the bathroom doesn't work because the fuse blew and DH is having issues fixing it. So we have a freaking flashlight in there and that's the only bathroom downstairs and I needed to get her to the closest one.
I had to clean her up and get her in the tub upstairs while DD2 was in the Tula attached to me. Then I finally had to take her off because she was trying to jump into the tub and I had to put her in her crib and she was screaming. And DD1 was screaming.
waterchurch I'm very sorry about your brother. *hugs*
I've had signatures turned off for months and just turned them back on. It's like a whole different message board. also, I forgot that I have a Santa pic in my sig. lol. Off to change that.

Also, here's a real random: I was googling "How to avoid touching your face" because my acne is out of control,and one of the first google suggestions is "How to avoid touching your girlfriend" lol
I've had a lot of things I've been wanting to buy just hanging out in online carts and today I'm pulling all the triggers.
I didn't sleep more than an hour uninterrupted and maybe three total last night and now that we're home, the adrenaline is wearing off. DH is picking DD up from preschool right now and then going back to work. I'm allowing my three year old DS1 play outside with a large container of bubbles. He's going to spill them, probably all over himself, but oh well. Bubbles are a dollar and I'll give him a bath later.

I looked like a drug addict the day after my hospital night with DS2. DH relieved me at about 10:45a and I went straight to preschool to pick up DD- in the jeans I had slept in, the PONYTAIL I had slept in, mascara running down my face, etc.
I want to make "It Ain't Easy Bein' Wheezy" onesies.

Yeah the thought of possibly being admitted didn't even cross my mind so I had nothing with me. Thankfully (?) the baby threw up (from retracting, poor buddy) so I changed my shirt right before we left for the hospital. That I then slept in. I washed my face with baby shampoo last night and luckily the hospital provided a toothbrush.
The little guy is exhausted too. I gave him another bath to get the hospital germs off and he's been sleeping since we got home. I'm just so glad our family room opens up directly into our backyard. I'm just laying here and the older two can run around the fenced in yard till their hearts are content.

I just received an email from the tutoring site manager. She talked to the principal about the opening they have, and informed her that I am interested. The principal wants her to bring me by tomorrow to set up an interview. Hooray!
I'm wearing the shirt AND AE jeggings right now. And just left express, where I bought another color of the shirt. I am a walking, talking GBCN cliche...but I can't help it. I really like the shirt, it looks decent on me, and looks far better with jeggings than it would with the sorry excuses for jeans that I currently own. So yay new clothes!
The toothpaste thread just reminded me of this and it made me laugh. At his dentist appointment last month, they gave DS1 like a million toothpaste options - strawberry, melon, vanilla, birthday cake, chocolate, bubble gum, raspberry - seriously it went on and on.
What did he choose? Mint.
I used to choose "no flavour" fluoride treatments when I was a kid because all of the flavours were so fakey fake and gross.
This would be DS's preference, too. I also only like white paste toothpaste (no mint gel or cinnamon stripe). And we finally found a medicine flavor he can tolerate - watermelon at Target.
@mrswindycity, 10 lbs is a lot of pasta! I had multiple pots of water boiling, and it still took forever. Here's me (wearing The Shirt, lol) with a bowl of about a third. Attachment Deleted

I ended up not pumping at all yesterday and haven't today. It's kind of freeing to not be "tied" to that thing. It's making me feel a lot better about the whole thing. I wish things would have worked out but I'm trying to see the positive side.
I'm really nervous to leave E at the ILs overnight next weekend. I'm excited to go out and I know he will be in good hands but it's his first time away from us so I'm going to have a hard time!
The didn't get invited to a birthday party thread on ml starts off boring and then wham, psycho. FYI if you need something to get through the afternoon.

She's always been odd. Anytime someone asks for help about their kid's behavior, she rolls in with "blah, blah, blah... your kid is probably on the spectrum."
As predicted I regret not doing more work this weekend. Today is going to be ROUGH.
I am there with you. I will be here late into the night.
I didn't work this weekend, because we were hosting the in-laws for my husband's birthday. I kept trying to figure out a way to get into work for a few hours, but it wasn't really possible. After they left we had to hurry to finish laundry and grocery shop.
I'm glad my husband is back to work, but it was really nice to have a house husband who could handle chores and grocery shopping during the week. Too bad we couldn't afford it long term. I guess there is the other issue that he wasn't really interested in that role.
Gah ilikedonuts, I was wondering how your day was going. Hugs, hope everyone is feeling better soon.
@peggyolson that discussion with your boss sounds like when I left my last job. The woman was an old biddy and she basically said "all you young people are what's wrong with this organization." Uh, did she not know the demographic we catered to? We were the perfect age for those jobs. I figured it was a sign I was leaving at the right time.
OMG yall, I feel like I am drunk. This afternoon has been awful. I keep trying to read a document and failing miserably. How did I get through sleep deprivation when E was a baby?
I didn't. I think I'll email tomorrow morning, that way he is not put on the spot like he would be if I called. Keep your fingers crossed. I feel less and less sure
