Maybe it’s because Im a dirty bird @MissKittyDanger, but I could NOT keep that house that white and clean!

thanks everyone! Yeah, she’s in person school right now and it’s a small “countryside” school. I told her next year she’ll meet new people and have a new class! Nope. Same people. So they really got to get it under control now, and I agree why wait?

Thanks for asking @MNNEBride, we text a bit but he’s still not very open or talkative like before. We didnt talk last night either so I’m going to call him tonight and flat out ask if its something I did or said. I think he may have taken something wrong, and looking back in it - I may have said something that came out wrong. We had an expensive night out on Friday and I was talking about my job and he said “what does that have to do with anything”. I meant to say because of the place we went to (customer of ours) im able to get a paycheck and pay for nice dinners out like that. I have a job!”. Now M is kinda underemployed. As soon as it came out I said to myself “man, I didnt mean for it to sound like that!” i didn’t mean for it to sound so snotty. I never will and never have rubbed my nose in the fact that I make more than him. I’m not sure if I should bring that up though, if that’s not really the case and I am thinking to much into it.

And yeah co-leader mentioned something about a gf in his text so I think he’s dating someone too. He’s like this with EVERYONE. Just a really good dude.

@CharmedPam You'd bet your bottom dollar that I am vying for buying a roomba or something similar. ONLY WAY I AM KEEPING IT CLEAN

Have I mentioned who I live with?
Let's break it down sitcom style lol

M - adhd & gamer. Also male, so falls in the stereotype of he really doesn't pay attention to his messes {will clean when reminded - could this be part of adhd or just him? Stay tuned folks! Character development!}

BK - 2. Very much 2 Perchant to dripping liquids that should not be dripped on to things. Plot twist - it's to lick it up! {why ..}

Angel - blind tuxy cat. Perchant to ripping his fur out and vomitting. {not always connected}

Penny - Ginger. Not to be trusted.

Me - Show runner. Figuratively and if this were a sitcom, I would be main character.

I'm really slow this week at work, which is great. Give H more time to work and I can squeeze in occasional naps with the babe is napping. I had been starting to feel a little better re: nausea and headaches, but it's back bigtime today. And I'm freezing. I keep taking my temp and monitoring for any symptoms that I could be mistakenly attributing to pregnancy but, so far, nothing. Hoping it's just the newest babe getting settled and i'll feel back to normal in couple weeks (that's what happened with #1 so i'm hopeful!)

@ei34 Hope you get results soon!!
@short+sassy enjoy your new cube!
@banana468 this is one of my biggest fears with my my gas range!!!!! Glad it was just your pride that was ruined.

I hope you feel better soon!

I had the worst sinus infection the first few weeks when I was pregnant and it’s sucks because there’s not much you can take. This year that’s got to be a whole new level of fear there. Hoping everything is just fine!

Thanks!! It's definitely a new level of anxiety every time I don't feel totally norma!

Wait what is this?!? You have a good job! You can pay for a nice dinner! You should be proud of that, you weren’t bragging, and if he is upset by you being an awesome person you shouldn’t apologize you should assess why you would dim your light to make him feel shiny!

CharmedPam - How are things with the man? Is the co-leader of your infidelity group still single? He sounds like a good guy.

@MyNameIsNot - what about puzzles or games (board or cards)? Sounds like grandma needs to get more creative.

banana468 - glad nothing was damaged in the fire but your pride.

All I can say is that this has given me a lot of insight into why H was the type of kid who could come up with creative ways to entertain himself. The reality is that the kid would be a perfect angel if she could just play outside for an hour or so. But she's too young to be outside by herself, and Grandma refuses to go out because it's too cold. It's 47.

I'm trying to work late and take a two hour lunch tomorrow so that I can take her to the park. I did run to cvs today and got a gingerbread kit and some activity things, so grandma is going to have to put down her phone an do the gingerbread house tomorrow. Thanks for all the suggestions!

@CharmedPam, I don't have a lot, but I was that kid. Just having someone on my side would have helped a lot. She needs to know that it's not her fault, it's not ok, and there's nothing wrong or bad with her to make her to target of bullies. I hope you or her parents can advocate to get her some help sooner. "Just deal with it" is miserable, and a month is an eternity for an 8 year old.

Thank you @STARMOON44! It was supposed to come out that way. It’s the only thing I could think of him taking wrong. I mean he could be sick, and I really hope that’s it (not covid sick, he said his asthma was acting up).

short+sassy · December 2020

@CharmedPam, I hope the talk with M goes well. I know you had mentioned things seemed off. It's always hard to tell in the early days of a relationship. But people have "mis-steps" in their language all the time. I'm wouldn't even call it that. If that's the issue, it wouldn't be fair to have his nose out of joint like this. You were just be thankful about having a good job. I don't see where that is anything like an automatic assumption that you were disparaging the money he makes, unless it is something he is already sensitive about purely in his own mind.

I dated a guy who told me about a women he dated for a couple months that was a stripper (though he didn't meet her at a club). He said he finally had to break up with her because it bothered him too much and he couldn't get over it. I assumed he meant "morally" or whatever, because he seemed to come from a really conservative background. But that wasn't what he meant at all. It bothered him that she made a lot more money than him, smh. That should have been a dealbreaker, but I was young and stupid.

A little bit of similarity. That guy and I went out 2-4x/week for about a month. We were really hitting it off. I thought things were heading to a long-term relationship. We'd already had those discussions. And then he just totally ghosted me one day. He was acting a little weird on the last date we went on. That was my only "sign". We didn't have a fight or anything like that. I was completely baffled as to what the heck happened. And absolutely livid that he had the gall to not even return my calls. Yes, it was a new relationship. But after a month and about a dozen dates, I deserved some kind of answer/closure.

He randomly contacted me two years later, via e-mail. Talk about a shock! At least I finally got some kind of answer. He apologized for what a dick he had been to do that. Supposedly it had nothing to do with me. He was going through "a lot". Was at a crossroads in his life. Trying to decide between his current career, a new career, or going back to school. And starting a new relationship on top of that felt like "too much" and "too overwhelming". But he knew he should have just told me that and always felt guilty he'd been too much of a coward to do it. I was already living with my now-H, but this guy and I stayed online friends for about 6 months or so (my H knew and was fine with it) until our friendship just naturally petered off.

Wow @short+sassy, a month is a long time to date

MKD - DD has seasonal allergies and they have been a little worse lately, so Dr wanted to add in a nasal spray to help. She already takes generic zyrtec each night, so this would help boost its effectiveness.
