I'm determined that today will be a good day. The cleaning ladies come, DH works a half day, I had leftover dumplings for breakfast, leftover fried rice for lunch and I'm going to go shopping at Target & HomeGoods.
Our beagle mix will not stop farting and it smells especially bad today.
This coffee is so good! It only has as much caffeine as 1/2 a cup of coffee so I've been using a few splashes as creamer. Yummy!
I just popped out of a huge period of nastiness/depression/hormonal craziness. I am on Day 3 of feeling fabulous. Its amazing that now looking back I was doing so bad and just didnt realize. I went on the boat yesterday and say the most beautiful sunset and then awoke to the amazing bright sunrise. Sounds weird but I feel like a new person and am so excited about it.

I had a very intense sex dream last night involving an ex I haven't seen in 8 years. I woke up feeling so weird about it, and I can't shake it. Then my DH came to kiss me goodbye and it felt like I was missing my ex! Ugh. Hopefully a crappy day at work will make me forget it.

Heavy conversations should never happen after 10PM. I brought up the CEP thread to my H as we went to bed at 10:30 (which is late for us anyway), expecting him to make an offhand comment about it and we would then head to bed.
We debated the question of whether or not homeschooling should have oversight for over an HOUR! The end result was that he feels that while oversight is a good idea, he doesn't know how it would be implemented, but there should also be federal educational standards for homeschoolers.
It was the most frustrating conversation I've had with him in a long time.
I got distracted with the other thread and now I just found my child eating play doh her mouth is all green.
Eta: After finding this, I moved them all into a giant box with the container of "crayons." I then went back to work. 10 mins later I check on them and all 3 are covered in various shades of marker. Apparently, there were some markers mixed in the pencil case of crayons.
I don't see how people can WFH and watch their kids. I only had to manage for an hour while my mom ran to the Dr. Epic fail.
Daycare is closed Friday and Monday I'm taking today. So I'm doing two hours at the gym in the morning, and in the afternoon we have a coffee shop/train table play date with one of his classmates.
Today is a half day for me, yippee! AJ's sitter is out of town so J was able to switch from going in at 10a to going in at 2p and I'm taking the afternoon off. I may weed the front flowerbeds while AJ naps...or I may nap myself. Decisions, decisions.
On a more serious note, my BFF's dad had emergency surgery early this morning for a perforated colon-he ended up losing 2 feet of it and has a temporary colostomy bag The poor guy was in the hospital for diverticulitis Saturday through yesterday, and then his wife/BFF's mom had to take him back in overnight. I'm really hoping everything ends up okay-her family has always been like a second family to me and her dad is amazing. So if you have any TP&J to spare, please send them his way.

I had CRAZY dreams last night. One was a sex dream about a coworker. Fucking WEIRD. The others were super stress dreams where my daycare lady stole my baby and another where I was stranded in a bad neighborhood with C and we were walking aimlessly trying not to get mugged.

I think my sad mom chip is broken. All of these people are posting about their kids going back to school ( and starting school for the first time) and how sad they are. I'm HAPPY! Schedules back on track, a bit of time to myself to be a productive human again... Them getting their energy out with someone other than me! YES!
I'm spending way too much time trying to decide on a gift for my BFF's new baby. I want something I can get personalized that will have some longevity.
Siri almost always gets my requests wrong. Then I get mad and yell at her like she's a real person. Case in point, yesterday I asked for directions to Old Navy and Siri came back with "I don't have an address for (random person I work with)'s testicles".

We are going for our last water park/splash pad day of the summer. Last time L was miserable for me- he is napping now and we are going with friends this time, so hopefully it goes better.. It's chilly now though! I hope it warms up by three time we get in the water! I have been craving potato chips (like salty ruffles) for a couple of days now. I could go for some helluva good with them too. How is my first craving this pregnancy at 34.5 weeks!?

I decided at midnight last night DD must be switched to the Woombie because she spends the whole night fighting the swaddle. Cue the most epic baby meltdown because she was unswaddled for 3.5 seconds. Our baby is not a chill baby.
Tonight we have a work dinner for DW's work. I kind of dread her work events because it's all engineers and physicists and many of them just want to talk about science. But tonight's event promises 5 species of smoked meat, so it at least has that going for it.
