So many people on my Facebook raging over Colin not standing for the national anthem. Not a single person has anything to say about Brock Turner only serving 3 months of his already disgustingly short 6-month sentence after being caught red-handed sexually assaulting an unconscious woman.

You guise - I finally lost some weight. For four months the scale hadn't budged at all. I had twenty pounds to get to PP weight, 25 to my ideal weight. Finally, this week I stepped on a scale and had lost four pounds. Stepped on again yesterday and had lost another two. Six down and 19 to go. I was starting to worry that it would never come off without drastic measures because I'm old and my body is tired from doing this so often.
It's raining like crazy here (tropical storm) and DS1 is sick. We're being ultimate bums. It's kind of lovely...but hard not to feel quilty about doing absolutely nothing.
My parents are a little worried about their flight tomorrow morning... FX everything moves out quickly.
We have our friends' empleada coming over tonight to babysit and kind of just talk to DD1 in Spanish.
I wake up every morning saying I am going to join weight watchers, but then the baby doesn't sleep and there is pizza and chocolate and I am like... fuck it.
But really though, does anyone want to do WW? Or any other weight loss program? I always do better when someone does it with me. I am just feeling so down about my body lately and my clothes keep getting tighter. It's a horrible feeling.

Is your LO getting close to 6 months already?! L just turned 4 months... Time needs to slow the f down.
Mine will be 5 months next week and I know we have a few that are farther along.
But time is going so fast it will be here soon for all of us. I saw a week old baby yesterday and I couldn't believe how tiny she was. Babies grow so much that first year- it's crazy!
My 1-month-old niece feels like a feather when I pick her up, compared to DS! And weighing 8lb13oz at birth, it's not like she is little. But she still seems like it after holding DS who is almost 5 months!
This actually working thing really cuts into my TCF time... Also, I'm exhausted again
I really wanted to participate in the NHIE thread yesterday, but by the time I got settled at work and checked it out 45 minutes after it had started, it was already 35 pages long. Nope.
I stole 2000 pesos (66 cents) from DD1's piggie bank this morning to fund my coffee addiction.
My Spanish tutor is coming in a few minutes. Hoping to get LO down for a nap first. I have been too busy with LO's PT that I cancelled twice already and haven't studied at all in like 2 weeks. It is going to be a disaster.
Pdq counseling won't make a differnece at this time. I am open to it one day. This is more we have to just get to the other side. He had change meds recently leading to mood swings and other nasty side effects. We had a heart to heart about how much it is impacting me. And also how stressed I feel about tubs. I am exhausted. I think I need to give myself more rest time right now.
** Trigger Warning ** A friend was walking her 5 month old in a stroller yesterday when they were hit by a car. The baby did not survive. The little guy looked like my little guy, and was only a month older. I can not get out of my head how deviating it would be to lose my lo. No one should ever lose a child. That poor family.
Can't believe I'm about to say this, but I was thoroughly disappointed in Target's baby boys clothing section tonight. Mostly I just needed pants for DS, but decided to peruse if there was anything else. Not much of a selection. Girls clothes on the other hand...tons of cute stuff.
Omg Courtniko how terrible. Lots of prayers for your friend and her family. Is your friend hurt (physically)?
She will be in the hospital for a little while. Head injury, concussion, 4-5 fractured ribs, and they were going to check out her knee and ankle. She should fully recover from her physical injuries.
DH is at his Fantasy Football draft tonight. He won it all last year and I spent all his winnings on baby stuff FX for a good draft!
But I am really hoping that he can catch a ride home from someone so I don't have to go pick him up when it is over. It's only 5 minutes away but it will still suck having to wake up LO MOTN to get him.
Hell to the no to waking up a baby to pick a DH up who's capable of flagging a lift! Or walking! Great that's he's out having fun but there's no way I'd be uplifting a sleeping baby unless he was stranded in the woods and badly injured ; )
I had a Little Sumpin' Sumpin' with our pizza tonight. SO had a hard cider.
Also I would be shocked if someone couldn't drive your H home if you live so close. That would suck to wake LO!
Yeah I have a feeling the single/no kids guys will probably be spending the night at the guys house who is hosting. The host is a single/no kids guy so also part of the reason he is hosting. I think some of the other guys who may be getting rides from their wives or something might be staying later than my H was planning on staying.
So FX someone who can give him a ride and has room in their car will want to leave right when the draft is done.
Fingers crossed! Do you guys have Uber in your area?
I had a "win" tonight! Put DS down at 7:00. I went to sleep at 8:45. DS woke at 9:30, and he let me just give him a paci to go back to sleep, so I didn't have to nurse him to sleep! He then slept til 2:30! Of course I nursed him then. But now I'm wide awake.

My family are trying to break me.
Between DD coughing or screaming out in her sleep (we have her monitor upstairs with us), LO snorting and coughing and waking every few hours and DHs snoring I am lucky to get a few minutes here and there of sleep. All I want is some sleep!! They're all happily zzzzz-ing away despite the interruptions they're providing me and right now I can't like any of them.
