Monday randoms

[wineandcheese]

Afternoon!

I love my mom but she is killing me. I spent 3 hours, 4 garbage bags full, 2 broken bottles of wine and 4 broken wine glasses to reorganize our kitchen and dining room area this morning. She stops over to bring over random items and a pretty shirts lol. Plus she tattled on me at her doctor's appointment this morning, we have the same doctor, and the doctor call me and yelled at me for having a rough time and not seeing her. She's happy I'm going off the meds but she would rather talk to me first.

wineandcheese - I feel like that was an incredibly inappropriate thing for your doctor to do. Your mom should not be able to talk to your doctor about you. That's a huge breach of trust. Your health is your business, and I would be reporting that to someone.

[grover]

wineandcheese, That is the reason why I made H switch doctors when we finally got married. He was going to the same one as his parents, and I couldn't believe that the doctor and his mom would just sit there and chat about his ADULT medical records and such. It pissed her off, but really, too bad so sad.


I am about to eat a lunch of champions, pizza rolls, a small cup of mtn dew, and a handful of mnms. Then I have to take H's car (which really, is the only car I drive now, since he takes my beater with manual locks and windows to the bus lot every day), for an emissions test.

Urg wineandcheese. I wouldn't tell your mom stuff like that anymore.

It feels weird to be in the ILs basement with DH at work. He hasn't worked since we moved in here.

DD is sleeping so I am cleaning, before I head down to our house and finish the back splash.

**baby talk** Then I'm going to walk down to a local baby talk group. It's a free group through our health system here. The topic is communication in the first year of a child.

I'm just now fixing lunch. I probably could have gotten something fixed before I put DS down for a nap, but then I would have had to share, lol.

[luv2rn4fun]

wineandcheese- that is not cool at all. Sorry friend. I would report and switch doctors.

tacocat- I wait for C to take a nap or go to bed when I want to eat something I don't want him to have, mainly desserts.

awick14- sounds like a great meeting topic! Have fun!

DH is working from home today and C is always "extra special toddler" when he is home but actually working. I hope he seals the deal today so his WFH days are very few. He loves that he could actually come home for lunch if he got this job...um, no way dude...that's nap time and my only down time.

[awick14]

luv2rn4fun- I only wish DH couldn't start work tomorrow so that he could come with me. It would be a great topic for us to go to together

Hello ladies! Work has been crazy and spoiled Baby L had 2 first birthday parties so life is starting to settle down this week.

I am on my second extra large cup of coffee today since I got to work at 7am and have to stay until at least 630 or 7 tonight. Gotta love the state board of health and late interviews.

[wineandcheese]

Thanks ladies. I'm not going to go too crazy on my mom right now. I know her heart was in the right place, poor execution. I've had a really rough few weeks so she was concerned for my health and safety. My doctor didn't share any info with my mom but called me because she was concerned about my mental health and was thinking of me. It wasn't on my doctor's side, more on my mom's side lol. I got my doctor's cell # so if I have any issues I can call or text her direct. I don't really want to switch doctor's because she talks to me like an equal, she loves talking "medical" stuff with me. I love that I can call her or go see her, explain my signs and symptoms, what my vitals are and have been, then pretty much try to attempt to diagnose myself, we make a plan of action together. I've been right about 90% of the time lol. I feel more in control of my health that way.

It's a good topic for all parents. Hopefully he will be open to discussing things with you and you guys can communicate better when issues come up. I wish we had something like that, especially after C was born...it was such a brutally hard time in our marriage.

All morning I looked forward to a Starbucks coffee and then I ran out of time between appointments. Can barely keep my eyes open now. Zzzzzz.... no idea how I'll get through the rest of the day.

wineandcheese I mean, it's nice that your doctor called to check in, but shame on your mom for having a conversation like that with your doc. Private info should stay private.

grover my husband had to do the same thing. We refuse to use any service my in-laws use or recommend. Lawyers, doctors, dentists, nothing. Too messy.

I am having a down day. I apparently forgot to click submit on my water bill payment and then ignored when the second bill came. Luckily H opened the mail today and found the final notice. I feel so dumb.

I also still feel guilty about not working on Friday. It was a bad day because I wasnt there and that makes me feel bad and like everyone is mad at me. Ugh.

[luv2rn4fun]

((Hugs)) melsamoony. I forgot to click through a transaction once and it really annoyed me. But, I never made that mistake again...we have all done things like that before, part of being human. Sorry it was a rough day but I still think you did what was best for your health and also what will help you recover faster so you aren't out even more days. It's frustrating when work is so lean that it crumbles when one person cannot come in. Totally not your fault. How is your tooth healing? Hope tomorrow is a much better day!

amaranth- sorry you didn't have time for Starbucks today. Hope you can go to bed early and get some decent sleep tonight.

[melsamoony]

luv2rn4fun doing better today with a few bad moments where I went too long without ibuprofen. DS has been so sweet he told me he would snuggle me til I feel better!

Looking forward to tomorrow and hopefully continuing to feel better. May milk more snuggles out of DS though.

That is so sweet of your DS!! I would totally milk it for as many snuggles as possible! Hope you feel better soon!!

melsamoony- I've done that with our water bill before.

**baby talk**

I loved the communication talk at baby talk today. I think everyone, with or without kids, should hear a talk like that. I even brought pamphlets home for DH. 😊 lol

I was feeling a little stir crazy before I went so I decided to walk to baby talk. (Only a 15 min walk each way.) I enjoyed the walk, afterwards I went to the library and grabbed some books for me to read. It's been a long time since I've been there. I also looked into times for story time for DD.

Now that DH is back to work I need to find some things to make me feel less alone.

You should definitely get involved in storytime! I started when G was 6 months old because I needed a social outlet of some sort. SAH can be really lonely.

awick14, the best part of taking this time off of work before hand (other than NOT having to be at work LOL) is that I've read six books over the past 2 weeks. For FUN. It's been great!
