pixiepink24 if I try again today I'll take a pic. It could be he just seems so little to me because Elena was not little. The k'tan I have isn't snug enough for him. He's such a peanut!
I cant stop eating Trader Joes olive oil popcorn!! It's making my life right now and helping me feel less nauseated. I guess I should just make lunch, right?
That's horrible @officedronette. Both times issues have occurred at my older girls' schools were at the end of the day so they were headed home anyway. If it will make you feel better at all, go get her.
@officedronette, Ugh I'm so sorry!! If you can, go get her and snug her all day. If not, she will still be totally fine. She is in a great daycare, that is sadly prepared to deal with all types of situations like this

@officedronette I would be so shaken by a conversation like that. I am so sorry that you had to hear such a terrible conversation. I also hope they get everything under control quickly at your daughters school. That is extremely stressful.
@officedronette , your posts have made me want to vomit twice today. Fuck the nazis on the train and fuck whoever called a bomb threat into a daycare. WTAF. Go get her and snuggle her so tight. I'm glad our kids are two young to really understand something like that. I don't want to think about how to manage something like that with a 4 or 5 year old.
Agree 100%. It's such a shame and a tragedy that this is happening all over the country and our president has yet to address it in a way that communicates he has a handle on the situation and a plan of action. I'm so sorry you have to deal with this!
Thanks all. I'm home waiting for my husband to get home with L. He should be allowed to get her soon. I'm so unbelievably angry. I think the fact that I was sitting behind the random skinhead on the train this morning makes this so much worse because I saw the type of monster doing this and he was behaving perfectly politely aside from his content. I'm so sick.
Also, so underenthused by my congressperson's offices response, which was yes the congressperson supports an investigation into these threats but I can't tell you if the FBI is actually investigating. One of our friends is an investigator in our county and the news from him is similarly depressing/lackluster.
Can someone please find the people responsible for these threats and discipline them accordingly? We can find the resources to detain undocumented immigrants seeking medical treatment for brain tumors and shrug at concerted threats of violence against thousands of American citizens? What the fuck people.
Also guys if you have any Jewish friends IRL give them a call or text and let them know you love them. It's been a shitty few weeks as evidenced most personally to us by @officedronette's experience.

@officedronette, what a day! I hope your husband gets home soon with L and you can get all the snuggles.
So many hugs to all those dealing with/experiencing hate and discrimination. I hope we can shine a light on it and banish it for good. @officedronette's experiences today remind me that we have a long way to go.

My k'tan was way too big on us too. I wish I knew then what I know now. This was when W was two months old so obviously much larger than max. *Poof!*
Can someone explain to me why people are racist against Jewish people? I just don't get it. I can see how uninformed people could associated Muslims with terrorism but Jewish people have never been anything but great neighbors. Does this date back to WWII? I know they were targeted as scapegoats for a number of reasons after WWI, but is that why people are toppling headstones in Philly in 2017?
Anti-semitism goes way, way back. Thousands of years. The Jewish people have been blamed for all kinds of crazy things, including I think it was the Black Plague? Because Jewish people practiced cleaning in a way that was unusual for the time, they weren't hit as hard. Superstitious population concludes that they're causing it.
In modernity, there's the vast Jewish power controlling the world economy or some such damn conspiracy theory.
But really, you're looking for logic and reason where there is none. It's easy to pick on and hate Jews because it's ingrained racism and taught broadly in white supremacist circles. Hating black people is very American racist (not exclusively, of course), but hating Jews is more universal.
I feel vaguely yucky typing this out. I have feels here.

H didn't get the job I'm so upset but have to be the supportive wife. I can tell he's upset and won't want to talk, but we need to make a plan for what's next. I'm so unhappy and I know it's because of where we are, we need out of here. I made an appointment to start back on zoloft next week, hopefully that helps for now.
forevermorgan, good grief, T! Yikes. That reminds me, I think our security system can be rigged to beep anytime someone opens a door, and L is getting familiar enough with how doors work that I think it's in our best interest to do it before we have a similar morning.

Have you guys seen these pictures? They are amazing. They make me think of how I used to be so excited every week to find out what fruit my fetus was the size of.
