sjep922 I'm not feeling either of those tops with the legging, but like the left over the right. The right seems too close but not quite a match and that is just odd to me. The rose at least contrasts enough.
rvamama ok seeing all of those colors contrasting with them I love them! Maybe I'll go with the navy for now and can add a brighter color if I see them!

I agree! The two tops you posted would not stand out against them and would kind of mute the pretty print of the leggings! I love that print and think it will be a fun winter print too!

graciest719, malvo, sjep922 I hope your kiddos are on the mend for good. Baby barfing is the worst. And ajacot924, I hope your H feels better soon.
LesleyEO how are you possibly going back to school? Do you guys have year round or do you just get out in the beginning of May. I can definitely relate to the stress dreams.
bnizzlebizzle- We have a short summer, just 6 weeks. I was off the 1st week of June. We do have 2 weeks off in October and March which I really love. Doesn't really take the sting out of the early start though!

We got back from our Maine vacation last night. It was so nice to take a vacation to a place we wanted to go as opposed to schlepping around visiting people we like but places we don't necessarily want to visit (family visits out of state). I definitely feel re-energized.
Today we're cleaning and organizing. Nothing too exciting. I have two fillings (one new, one repair) tomorrow which I'm dreading. My dentist is great but I hate Novocain. And being trapped on my back looking at the ceiling with my mouth open. As you can probably guess, I'm not super kinky.
M has slept all. damn. day. There were moments that she was awake, and I got her to drink water and eat Cheerios. She had 4oz. of milk that has, so far, stayed down.
She's just a zombie. She doesn't want to do anything but lay down and snuggle and sleep. I've gotten more baby snuggles in the last 24 hours than I have the last 15 months!
My plans for tomorrow don't look good, but my friend offered to take her in the morning so I can still get my massage. She has a nice in-ground pool, so she's like, "M can sleep in the PNP and we'll hang by the pool and grill!" So I'm hopeful that my birthday isn't a total bust. But I may have cried when I saw the day slip away from me. I'm such a baby! But I was so excited for what we had planned, so it's a tough pill to swallow.
malvo I'm so sorry. I think it's totally fair to be disappointed and I don't blame you for crying. I hope she feels better soon and you can salvage your day.
I was playing cake swap and e liked watching it. At 1 point she sat on my face while I was trying to play. But I have gotten tons of kisses from her since.
malvo sometimes being a mom sucks. Times like ruined plans that we get hopeful for because we haven't done anything for ourselves in ages. I get it. Glad you got all the snuggles and if M is doing alright, take your friend up on her offer!!
Friends came over this evening for an impromptu cook out. It was so hot but the kids enjoyed the kiddie pool and I enjoyed the beer! We've all taken baths now and are winding down, but I need to go finish my application before bed. Oh, and laundry. And packing the kids for the new week at school....yeesh.
Thanks for the support, everyone! She has perked up quite a bit and is currently climbing all over SO. He goes, "I'm not seeing any evidence of a sick baby." He was gone all day and I had to show him picture proof that she was a sick baby lump. I'm cautiously optimistic about tomorrow. We'll see if she keeps down the toast and milk that she just had! FX SO HARD.
GL on the application and promotion, rvamama! You got this

rvamama - GL with your application and promotion. I'd update your objective and make sure all of the duties and above and beyonds are listed for your current position. I don't think it's necessary to completely reformat, but if you want to and it's not horribly time consuming, sometimes it's fun to do. Maybe your tastes have changed since your original? And I LOVE all of your stylings for sjep922.
sjep922 - I love the navy and you could really play those leggings for fall with some burnt orange or darker greens/Browns with some chunky jewelry accents and dark boots. Love them!
malvo - Everything is crossed for you!! Come on M!!
portuguesemama thanks for the resume insights! Thankfully, I don't think the rule of keeping a resume limited to 1 page is still a rule. I have added some job specific skills to that section and changed the "additional" information section as well as objective (straight to he point of the job I want!) and am trying to be very detailed in my current role description.
So this is kind of heavy for a Sunday night but I'm having some issues with H that I don't know how to resolve.
You may remember that I mentioned I've struggle with anxiety and depression. My meds really help but every day is a battle to keep my head right.
My H has been so negative and grumpy these past few months. I know it's the stress of his job but it wears down on me. He said to me today that I don't talk to him anymore which made me realize I do avoid him a lot so he won't bring me down.
I don't know how to explain my feelings to him without sounding selfish. Of course he's allowed to have bad days or weeks and complain or be negative sometimes. I'm not saying he has to be happy all the time but it's a constant misery from him. I want him to be happy but I don't know how to help him and I want to be happy too.
malvo FX M feels better tomorrow!! I understand the disappointment and tears you had, its not always manageable to get time away to treat yourself. I hope it still works out for you tomorrow!

ajacot924 Don't do what I did! My H has become very negative, he's always looking for trouble with the kids or his job or his family. He's become very glass half full and he brings me down sometimes. So one day he was anticipating some Kind of horrors and I just blurted out "Why are you such a fucking bummer all the damn time?!" Oops. He got really mad and it led to a giant fight. We eventually talked it out, but I could have engineered a more graceful lead in.
I honestly don't think he realized how negative he was being. So it was good we talked. And I think you need to. His behavior has caused a change in your behavior and he has noticed, so you need to say something even if it is uncomfortable.
Guys. My application and resume for the promotion I want are submitted. I spent entirely way too much time answering the question about salary. I never know how to answer that one and hope I didn't undervalue myself or over estimate what the job offers. Gahhhh!
