Hi! I am in the car waiting for my boss to get here. I am helping her out in another store to get a few extra hours. Today will be boring. I am just going to unpack and organize stuff.
I've been at work for 40 minutes so I can leave a bit early to pick up J from my parents tonight. It's been nice to have a bit of a break but I miss my bubs.
My mom is hilarious. She texts me last night and goes "If you want grandpa and grandma to come see the kids this weekend we are available." I tell her that sounds great and she goes "Let me know when you'll be over with them."
Ummm. You live 50 minutes away and said you were coming to us, and dragging three kids out in the cold so you can only hang with two of them will only upset Eli and be a waste of gas. (She only wants the older ones around)
Good morning. A and I are with my H today. We have to take A for a follow-up with the GI. I'm not looking forward to it. I know she's going to want to schedule an endoscopy to find out why he's eliminating protein in his stool. Would be nice to know why he's not growing that much, but DNW my baby going through any testing. 😔 Also DNW to be in the car with my H for 2 hours each way.
laur1020, I'm sorry A might have to go through that. Having medical stuff going on with your child is the worst. Good luck on the ride there and back. Maybe sit in the back with A to keep him company?

Hi. I've done all the things today. Exercised by jogging to park with E & back. Bottled a batch of kombucha and started a new batch. Cleaned my whole house.
E is now napping and I am enjoying a leftover broccoli & cheese calzone. So fucking good. Debating whether I should meal plan or nap.

Nap. You are too damn productive.
Also, jealous you can run outside. It's like -10 or something today.
Our paper published an opinion piece DH wrote. It's online now and will be in Sunday's paper. They gave him a column instead of publishing it as a letter to the editor. It's an argument for our city to build a new HS instead of renovating the old one. I'm proud of him because he's really put himself out there advocating for this. Hopefully he doesn't get a lot of nasty comments or email.
My friend is due in just a few weeks with her first. We had the funniest conversation last night about what she's worried about. It brought me back to getting ready for W.
"If I get an Epi, I can't walk so what if I need to pee? Will I just pee and not know it?"
"Where do you find nursing pads in Target?"
"Why do I need maxi pads?"
Her mind was blown when I explained the peri bottle, haha
Hi. We are home and tired. M and I slept until 10 but considering she went to bed at 1am that's not great. She's just now having lunch and I'll do nap after that. I'll work on a normal schedule tomorrow. But on the plus side all of the toys M hasn't seen in a while are keeping her busy enough that I've gotten some unpacking and cleaning done.
Hi, guys. I've been dealing with some health stuff and haven't had much energy beyond lurking and the occasional lovetit. Sending you all high fives for sweet things (moving in finally! no limping!) and hugs for all the bullshit and rough stuff (far too many of us).
Looks like I'm getting a cervical biopsy and D&C to check whether I've got cervical adenocarcinoma and/or endometrial cancer. I had a less intense version of the cervical biopsy four years ago that left some question as to whether they removed all the lesions in the glandular cells of the cervical canal, so this has been a bit of a gut punch after a stretch of good results. Either it's coming back or has been growing this whole time, and neither one is great news.
Each test has pointed to further issues, so I'm trying to stay positive and accept whatever comes. I'm working on staying grateful for A even if a possible hysterectomy is rearing its head again before we can try again. I am very lucky already, for having her and good care nearby. And the possibility of an exceptionally beefy bit of endometrial atypia and endocervical AIS (precancerous tissue in both places) remains, even if it's become less likely with each result.
Thanks for being my safe place to be negative for a minute, even when I've been MIA. (Not that I'm giving y'all much of a choice, hmm?).
I'm trying to be upbeat for everyone in my family and myself, but the latest not-great indicators are making it tough for me and my partner to stay cheery. We've been like, "Whatever, we did this shit before with some gallows humor," but now we are heading toward new territory we dodged last time. We are going to go see Hidden Figures tomorrow to blow off some steam and escape reality for a couple hours. Maybe we'll hit Moana for an irresponsible double feature.
I am so sorry theroar, keeping you in my thoughts and hoping for the best ❤
I vote for the double feature, because Moana is an awesome movie .
We both want to see it really badly, so hopefully D can slip away for that long. I have the day off. Life can't be all bad when you have a three-day workweek, right?

theroar - I'm so sorry you are going through that. Years ago I had cervical cancer that they caught early and cut out a chunk of my cervix and I was fine. They weren't sure if I'd be able to carry a baby to full term, but here I am...three kids later. Thinking of you
