We had terrible storms in our area last night. I took the kids to my parents' to sleep just in case there was a tornado. The thought of spending hours with five kids in our old 1920's wet cellar sounded awful. My parents have a finished basement. Luckily the sirens never went off, but the kids were all up til 10:30 because grandma insisted on watching a movie with them and feeding them sugary snacks. The baby and I slept like crap because we were out of our normal sleep routine and the thunder kept waking us. We just got home and my day feels wasted because we slept in late and stayed at my parents' too long. I think I'm phoning it in and letting the kids just play video games and watch movies all day. I need a nap.
The storm also knocked over all of my sweet corn, two pepper plants and some potatoes. Luckily all 31 tomato plants survived.
My mom was just talking to my aunt on the phone about a "salad" she's going to make for my cousin's pre-wedding BBQ in August. She listed the ingredients and said mayonnaise no less than 3 times. At this point, I'm imagining a jar of mayo with a few peas and some grated cheese stirred in.

Thank you ladies. Yesterday was a rough day. Amazing how even with DD having colic, doing this part again with this little guy feels just as hideous!! Even when I know logically it's not.
Feeling more ready to face another day of it today with a slightly better sleep.

Every day that passes is one day closer to him getting through it. You're almost there! Wishing you lots of coffee now and wine for later.

So my bil's niece lives in a bad part of Cleveland with her 3 kids. Well today she was attacked by the people that live beneath her and was beaten! She is 7 months pregnant! she's been at the hospital all day and she and the baby are fine, but what kind of monsters do that! I am so freaking shocked and angry!

OMG that is horrifying! I'm so glad they are ok. I don't understand some people.

What the fuck? That is absolutely sickening. She knew these people, too? I'm glad she's ok. I would assume these assholes are sitting in jail, correct?
I am in a really bad mood tonight. I hate maternity leave (or really the complete lack of it) in this country.
Do you go back to work soon?
I go back in a week, after 9 weeks home, but none of it was actual maternity leave, just my vacation and sick leave. I am going 2 weeks negative sick leave, and I just found out tonight that I was supposed to have a doctor's note, with a rediculous amount of information in it, for the 2 weeks negative sick leave. So tomorrow I have to deal with all that, but my time card is due before it will all get figured out. I don't want to deal with it, and I am mad that I only get to spend 9 weeks with my little guy. I love my job, but I am not ready to go back. Just a lot of emotions right now
Omg. I just read in the news about a 19 yr old guy beating up a 47 day old baby in my county. The baby had a skull fracture and bleeding on the brain, and bruises all over his body. What a sick fucking asshole.
Things like this make me so sick. We have quite a high occurrence of this kind of abuse with a certain nationality of people who immigrate to our country in large numbers and every time I read a new story I want to cry for the poor wee soul that endured this kind of torture. I just don't understand how anyone can let themselves go this far. It also makes me mad that our country is being tarred with a brush it wouldn't otherwise.

I don't know too many of the details right now. I know that mom and her kids aren't staying at their apartment tonight, so those awful people might still be lurking around? Whatever the case, I hope she presses charges. They deserve to rot in jail!

Holy cow, y'all. I had the brilliant idea to rearrange my girls' room today. It's a disaster. Apparently they've just been shoving things under their bed. And in their toy box and closet and drawers. I'm two hours in and have barely made a dent in the mess. I sort of went crazy and have already filled two bags of trash and two of junk for Goodwill. They have at least two loads of laundry I collected from around the room that I don't know if it's clean or dirty so now I'm going to purge half their clothes. If they won't take care of it, we'll donate it to someone that will. This is ridiculous.
I LOVE loft. I just got box from them today. So excited.
I bought a skirt in two sizes since the reviews said it ran small. Really small. I still need to lose weigh, but it was tiny. But everything else looked nice!
Thats a little annoying I bought skirts. I need to try them on. I rarely have sizing issues. I shop our outlet sometimes in addition to online.
I asked my mom not to visit with her current boyfriend. The idea of someone I don't know hanging in my house for a week was way to stressful. She gets new man often. They are always "the one" Dh is already worried about her try to introduce a new grandpa every couple months
DD did okay at her shots today. It was one of the worst cries I've ever heard though so it broke my heart. How did it go for you renbee and @birkmm
DS also did the loudest, saddest, most red faced cry ever! Then he took a trip hour nap when we got home. But after he woke up he was so fussy and nothing could console him, not even my boob! So out of character for my happy easy baby. I hope he relaxes soon
