The weekend was pretty good! Back to the grind today. It's the last full week of school and the last couple of days that actually count towards the students grades, so the end is near! Nine days until summer break! I'm just trying to get those tests I gave last Friday graded.

Today is 8th grade promotion. I am hanging out in my car in a high school parking lot like a giant sketch ball. I've never been to this building before and am waiting for my administrator to show up. I could really use a nap.
Today I have lunch with my teacher friends. I'm a little stressed about how I'm going to feel as I already lost my breakfast this morning. One person is retired but the other two still work for my school and I don't want to say anything yet and have it get back to my principal since I'm 99.9% sure I'm not going back now. Even the thought of pickles being on my plate makes me queasy. On the flip side I really want to tell my retired friend because she was my "work mom" and I love her to pieces. Her daughter is my age and had twins two months before I had DS. She legit made sure I was eating and not dying in my classroom and would come watch my class so I could have all the bathroom breaks I wanted. I know she will be over the moon.
We've already been out for our walk, the weather is perfect! Sunny but cool.
heybulldog56 what is 8th grade promotion ? Also I read your check in and that's awesome that YH took care of DS pretty much all day Saturday for you. Days like that rock.
lakegirl I can see why you would be torn! I would be in the same boat. Can you trust your other teacher friends to keep your secret? Or could you tell retired friend privately?
I woke up feeling so nauseated today, I'm barely choking down my coffee. Ds1 has a Counselor apt this morning so a friend is coming to watch baby so j can take him, but I feel so gross I just want to have her come watch baby and I'll go back to sleep. Lol. Not an option, but a girl can dream right
ashtog I do trust one of them but not the other. I'll just wait and schedule another lunch date only with my retired friend. Maybe I will have even have had my ultrasound by then so I'll have something to show her! I hope you feel better and have a relaxing day even if you can't go back to sleep!

Gonna post and run. First OB appointment is today, they'll do an U/S to confirm pregnancy. Good wishes appreciated!
I had an awful night and morning. Pounding headache all night even though I took Tylenol before bed. Woke up an hour before my alarm covered in sweat, with terrible MS plus the headache. Finally feeling better now after drinking lots of water, more Tylenol and a shower.
Best guess is either caffeine withdrawal since i had to skip coffee yesterday, or dehydration.

ashtog, promotion is basically a ceremony to celebrate their being "promoted" to high school. It's just for fun and doesn't mean anything. We don't like to call it graduation since technically they aren't graduating, just moving from one grade to another. It's all symbolic.
over the weekend a stranger overheard me showing a tutu to DH and saying it's perfect for Pangaea (our nickname for baby) and FLIPPED OUT. "Who names their kid that?! Is that a real name?!" blah blah blah, i told her it was a joke just to calm her down so we could leave, but DH is mortified. Crazy people man, they're everywhere.
What's going on with everyone? I tried to go into work today but got stuck on the highway in bumper to bumper traffic due to some insane car explosion. I took the first exit I could and went back home to work remotely. Oye.
LovesMeSomeCake, it baffles me that some people feel comfortable intruding on a personal conversation like that to give their opinion to a complete stranger. I mean, so what if you named your kid Pangaea - it's certainly none of their business. Sheesh.
I've definitely got the Monday blues today. I wish I could take a nap. My coworker came back from mat leave today and there are lots of goodies, so that's a bonus. I even worked up enough enthusiasm to make macarons for her, and they turned out perfectly.

rinny awww, I'm so sorry. Not the pregnancy achievement you want to unlock
I'm sitting in the waiting room. Waiting. Apparently my appointment got scheduled as a general exam, not a prenatal, so I hope that doesn't screw things up. Grrr. I even emailed the office to double check weeks ago and was reassured it was fine.
ashtog, I'm currently on pelvic rest and instructed not to exercise due to my SCH. When I'm cleared I'm going to try to start talking walks an maybe some prenatal yoga if I can find some free videos online.
My weekend was pretty good, our cookout was a smashing success and everyone had a great time. I napped for two hours after church and then didn't really want to go to bed last night.
Work this morning was busy but not insane and since I had Friday off that makes me really happy.

lakegirl I'm with you and would schedule another lunch with your retired friend to share the news
silvermelody good luck at he appt - so frustrating when they schedule your appt as something other than what you tell them when you call to schedule!!! I checked online and my appt tomorrow is listed as "problem." I kinda side eyed that, but am hoping it will be okay.
rinny the cookies look amazing!! Sorry you checked that milestone off your list today
Another night from hell with DD last night coughing, gagging, then puking. Made her an appt for this afternoon just to get her checked out and make sure she doesn't need an antibiotic and to see if there's anything they can give her for her cough at night.
As for me I'm nauseated as all get out. Had the heaves last night which was fun lol. Also had to call in to work today and my boss told me that I would have to work Saturday if I did that, so I somehow managed to go in for a few hours and treat my patients this morning. I REALLY can not stand my boss.

Hi ladies! I just dropping in to say hi and leaving again. Work is insane and I don't have time to check in today but hopefully will tomorrow. Heading to the doctor today for my Harmony prenatal screen so I'm curious how long until we have the results! Sending everyone happy Monday vibes and sending hugs to everyone struggling today.

It's the first day of summer vacation here! Took both kids out to run errands this morning... now DD is napping and DS and I just put banana bread in the oven. I'm ready for a nap too. Having one of DS's friends come over to swim in like 30 minutes, so that should keep him occupied for a bit Have a good day all!
