Good morning

mrsconn23 · January 2014

Seperation anxiety can DIAF. DefConn was practically sprinting toward the door, crying for me, as I left the sitter's house this morning. This has been going on for at least a month. I'm over it.

We were supposed to go visit friends this weekend, but they had to cancel. I'm bummed that we're not going to be able to see them, but I'm kind of glad we're not going OOT this weekend. We have stuff to do around the house and I'm just ready for a weekend off. We're going to reschedule with them soon.

My mom posted something on FB about how things are rough right now (dad was laid off on Friday), but they'll make it through. My aunt, ever theball of sunshine, posted on her status about how life is basically a giant circle of suck.

I was at work until almost 7p last night (I get here at 6:30a and am supposed to leave at 4:30p), so my only goal in life today is to leave on time so I can go home to eat dinner, play The Sims and watch Archer on Netflix with husband. Hell, if I get off early enough, I might even take a nap because husband doesn't get out of work until 6p and therefore won't be home until 6:30p. We've both been working so much overtime that we're stressed beyond belief and the only thing keeping us going is the knowledge that we're 19 days out from a two-week-long vacation. Come on, honeymoon.

Yesterday I had a playdate and admitted how I've been making a million excuses for not working out. Yesterday afternoon I decided to stop and get on the treadclimber. I managed 30 mins without a kid meltdown so I think I can get back into this.

I woke up at 530 trying to remember if Max had woken up. Then felt the puddle of milk and realized he FINALLY slept through the night. Please Lord don't let this be a fluke. I am TIRED. Of course I now I need to wash the sheets I just put on yesterday.

Good Morning to you! I'm home from work, yet again, today. Oh well. Work will move on with out me, plus I don't want to get anyone sick. I go see the doctor today at 11:15. Joy. I'm starting to wonder what is going on with the post office. 3 family members have sent me messages on FB stating that their invites came but were damaged during transport. I saw a picture of one and it looks like it was opened, crumpled up and then put back into the envelope. Part of me is contemplating emailing those family members who live outside of the NJ/PA/CT/MD area to see if they received their invites in one piece.

Other than that...things are great here. :oP

I see you're going to NYC, Norway, Sweden and Iceland. You'll have fun in NYC. I know nothing about Norway and Sweden. A few of my friends have gone to Iceland (one of which is currently there) and have heard stories about how much fun the country is. Have a great time!

I finally got delivery confirmation on the kiddo's headphones (he bought some expensive ones with his Christmas/bday money and allowance). They should be delivered today. It's been 10 days since I placed the order. He's been up my ass about them for the last week.

@soontobemrsbuccheri, I've been to NYC a lot because I used to live in Vermont. We're actually stopping there because my husband's only been once and wants to go again AND because some of my closest friends live there and I want to visit them. It's also nice to be able to go to all of my favorite restaurants, museums, parks and stores (Kinokuniya and the Strand, to be specific). I'm mostly looking forward to getting some gluten free crepes in Chelsea Market -- we're staying near Union Square, so not crazy far from Chelsea Market. I wanted to stay at my regular hostel in Chelsea, but it was all booked up .

I may murder the Mr.
My eyeballs say I'm itching to bring back the migraine I've had since Thursday--it's not gone, it's just in remission for the moment.
I'm grumpy (like that wasn't obvious).

Man.

Last night I helped my mom buy a new sink and faucet. I feel slightly bad because as usual you put her + I and we buy $600 worth of items...in two things. We don't have cheap taste, but I didn't even try to steer her toward a cheaper item. Oops?

Also, I have a meeting that will probably be everloving long, this morning and then my filling fell out yesterday (okay, MORE of it) and I need to get that repaired this afternoon as well as my yearly cleaning.

Couple that with tomorrows dilation appointment and I am missing probably 5 hours of work this week. I feel horrible about it, but what else can I do?

*sigh* I need to just get over it.

Parent/Teacher conference tonight. Nuff said.

I'm six days into my healthy eating lifestyle, and so far so good.

Online dating is the devil. For reals.

I really need to work on my facial expressions when I talk to some people. writtenallovermyface.com

Chelsea. I'm so jealous!!!! Have fun!

I've been at this mothering business for a year now and haven't screwed it up yet.

I still have time.

And I wish someone had slept through last night @6sfn. She basically wanted to be draped across me all.night.long. So tired. And so much to do today to get ready for her party on Saturday.

Happy birthday to the Bean!!

Time is flying. All these WW kids are growing up too fast.

dharmabunny · January 2014

Aww, poor DefConn

. DD will have little fits and spells of this, sometimes I just chalk up to some sort of developmental lightbulb or emotional territory she's exploring. And say, "this too shall pass"

Other than that, I got a bit of personal tasks done last night that I was foot dragging for months. I'm having to stop the multitasking and schedule the crap out of my evenings. Like iCal scheduling. It seems to be working thus far

A massive PITA work document just got approved today, I can move forward. Yay!!! And DD has her little recital tonight where everyone in her school does a little age-suitable song and dance. It's cute, low production and gets done quickly

VarunaTT · January 2014

I need to scream at someone. I am dealing with someone is a passive aggressive person and is doing everything she can to stab me in the back. My anger is making me sick to my stomach right now. I need to focus in and figure out a way to let it go and ignore her.

Other than that, I stayed up too late reading a good book and can't shake the sleep out.

PMeg819 · January 2014

I'm tired. DD wanted 100% of my attention yesterday after coming home. Was not content to be in the carrier at all. Of course, Monday nights DH works late so I had to take care of DS and get him dinner, bathed, ready for bed, with an infant screaming her head off because I haven't learned how to cook Mac and cheese on the stove with a boob in her mouth.

My mind is totally not on work today. It's on the little details and whatnot for my wedding in March. Doesn't matter- there are still a bajillion documents to review, until they are done or I bleed from the eyes and go blind, whichever comes first.

I've planned carefully, saved money where I can for this shindig. But I'm the frugal type who hates to write a check and watch the money flow out of my account. Final payments will be due over the next few weeks. I'm feeling panicky, as in "what if I don't have enough money!?!" which is totally ridiculous- I should come in under budget. Even if I go a little over the original budget, the original budget had fewer people (my folks added some, and since they gave me the original amount, I'm pretty sure they'll offer the extra coverage for their extra guests). FI and I have to decide on apps and if there will be booze (wine and beer only). He wants pricey apps, chocolate fondue with the cake, and booze. Finally told him we can choose 2, not all three. Minor pouting session ensues.

One of the kitties has to go in for a dental tomorrow. That means she doesn't get much for dinner tonight. I have visions of her bugging the hell out of us because she's hungry in the middle of the night (she also has seperation anxiety issues, and has been known to throw herself at the bedroom door meowing to be let in when we want some private time to ourselves).

Good morning
