SO and I got into an argument last night and he made me cry. He's been a gigantic Grinch about money and Christmas and life in general. I totally get it. I'm stressed, too. But, damn... Pity Party, Table of One!
I'm doing a tree and I'm getting M presents and you're getting something, too, damnit. Stop your whining and pretend to be happy for what we have.
We may not have savings, but we have a roof over our head, two cars that are paid off, a brand new wood stove, food in the fridge, lights are on, well hasn't run dry... BE GRATEFUL, FFS.
graciest719 I was this close >< to trading SO's with you last night.
ANYWHO. M had a decent night and was a goofball this morning. I can't wait for some time off next week.
Irritated by the amount of selfies and Facebook activity that occurs from the girls at DC. You are supposed to be watching children right now. I'm like 2 seconds from e-mailing the owner, but she is just as immature and also an absolutely terrible business owner.
Did I tell you guys about how they used to have snack time on the floor? Like, poured my kid's raisins ON TO THE FLOOR?
I watched Olaf smack another boy across the face/head today. I'm really close to asking M's teachers to keep M separated from him, when possible (like snack and lunch time). I don't want to be that mom. But this kid is on my last nerve.
malvo sorry about your argument. I get it, my H is being a downer too. Things have been tight with me starting real estate and llr. But I'm busting my ass and we are still paying our bills. We need to enjoy the holidays! And everyone gets presents, even if they aren't as big as last year.
ladymike no. Just no. They poured snacks ON THE FLOOR for your kid to eat? Not ok. Also, watch the kids instead of taking selfies. Those can wait until after work...
Hb and i talked about Christmas for his family and my family. My mom already said not to get them anything and we are doing the same for his family. I am going to attempt to make some ornaments with e and let her paint them so everyone will get an ornament or more depending on how easy and good they turn out.

jnow, MH flipped about the food on the floor and she said she doesn't do that anymore. A few of the girls recently friended me on Facebook, which is how I'm seeing it, but I don't know if it really is happening this frequently always or just coincidence this past week? Either way, YES, it will get addressed!
I really wish we had other childcare options :-(. We just don't. This is it. Unless I find someone to hire privately. Sigh.

Dirty lurker who has 5 minutes to catch up with you awesome ladies. *nervously waves hi - please don't hate me*
TheTuna15 - That was me at my last job. Every.single.day.
malvo - Sorry about the argument. The lovetit was for your vent about everything going right for you right now. Hold strong mama! And I deal with tons of the 70+ crowd - they can't hear me pronounce my name, let alone pronounce it correctly, so I get ALL of the pet names. I'd definitely be asking if they're discussed these issues with Olaf's parents.
ladymike - I'm glad I'm not the only one counting down. And hard no to food on the floor. I'm sorry that you're stuck in that position
Oh, ladymike , so sorry. That sounds pretty awful and I would likely have complained by now. There really are no other options for daycare near you? Our daycare now has a no cellphone rule for teachers. I used to love being able to text the teachers throughout the day. I'm sure at one point someone was doing something dumb like posting on FB when they were supposed to be working and they ruined it for everyone. But maybe that needs to be suggested at that facility!

We live literally in the middle of nowhere rural country PA. Haha. I could take her to the city I work in everyday, but it's 45 minutes from home.. and I'd rather not subject her to getting up earlier and all of that travelling. I don't know. It sucks!
M is on a food strike. No dinner the last two nights. We tried new stuff and the usual stuff. Her throat is a little red from being sick, but nothing super crazy.
I ask her if she wants to eat and she flips out. Put her in the high chair and she flips out. Try to hand her food as she's running around and she yells at me.
I feel guilty putting her to bed with only milk in her stomach.

malvo Jo has been the same way about food this week. She's not sick or anything, just plays with her food or throws it on the floor. WHATEVER. Thank God we have a dog lol

So we went to "joint class" today to prepare ourselves for next week. DH was the youngest patient there by a good 30 years. It was boring. Please don't read a PowerPoint to me. And all the oldies wanted to share their horror stories, either from their own surgeries or one of their friends. We peaced out early to hit up happy hour lol
AND we got pedicures before class! DH can't reach his feet and I'll be damned if I cut his nasty toenails. He enjoyed it-a massage chair and a busty young lady in a v-neck rubbing his feet!
