So on Friday H had a phone interview. On that phone interview his would-be boss said that he would contact him on Monday to set up a second interview. But he didn't. Logically I know that there a million reasons why this might happen but my anxiety brain keeps saying well I guess that means he isn't getting the job and I'm depressed about being stuck here so far from my mom and working for my horrible boss forever. I know none of this is logical.
On the bright side, E only had ONE wakeup last night!!! And not until 4am!!! That has NEVER happened!
I'm off today. I need to catch up on some laundry and have my anatomy scan/fetal echocardiogram this afternoon. I'm glad I'm team green because I feel like this is super late (I'm 21 weeks).
One of H's cousins was supposed to get brain surgery today and they postponed it right as they were about to put her under. I am a wreck over all this as we are close and I've seen too much and I can't help her at all (they are in England). She has a three year old and a ten year old at home and she is her family's rock. She has a 5cm tumor, so I don't even know if it's malignant or not.
I just made the mistake of watching the video of the 10 year old asking his step dad to adopt him. Why do I torture myself with stuff like this? I know I'm going to cry.
BFP #1 December 2012 - MMC January 2013, D&C February 2013 BFP #2 October 2014 - DD arrived July 16, 2015 BFP #3 July 2016 - MC @ 9 weeks August 2016 BFP #4 Due January 2, 2018 - Please stick baby!
Sorry to hear about your relative wells2010. Hoping of course that it's benign, but also that the surgery doesn't impact her too much in other ways (memory, personality). My mom's friend had a benign brain tumor and thank God she's the same crazy Auntie Theo!
I think I'll be at square one with mid-day weaning after today. Reagie and I are home today. I can't tell if she has a cold or allergies. Congestion, sneezes, SNOT! Clinginess, sad looking eyes, SNOT! Snuggles, boobin and SNOT!
So much rain here today too. I feel like we will never have sunshine. It's really starting to wear me down.
On the plus side at preschool DS made an "all about mom" and said I'm 25 and love Rice Krispies and my favorite tv show is baseball. Some of the other kids said their moms were like 59. Ouch!
You know those days where you aren't even out of bed yet but already know you need a do over? It's one of those days. Hunter screamed so much this morning he made himself throw up a couple times, it even got in my hair. It was awful. I had candy for breakfast because that's what all healthy adults do. I just want a nap and to leave work, no sleep because of whiney baby for the third night in a row. I'll be walking over to the clinic at lunch to take all the baby Tylenol samples I can find to get through this.
Good news is once I survive today only 3 days left at the hospital and 1 at the clinic!
We have our AS today too, though we'll just be confirming he's a boy. We get sent to MFM for a Level 2 U/S; I'm feeling anxious and just want to know all his organs and such are developing properly.
sharebear05, I stopped for second breakfast on my way to work this morning, before 8 am.
Did everyone see the kid on twitter who asked Wendy's how many retweets for free chicken nuggets for a year and they said 18 million? Well he broke the record for the most retweets ever and they're giving him the nuggets. So hilarious.
I just scheduled W's hearing test that speech wants him to get. They are booked til October. I realized after I hung up that I'll have a 6 week old at that point too. What?!
Just realized we're going to be in DC for JR's birthday this year. Paging rachydc and @wafflesfriendswork - what are the best things to do with a toddler in DC/NoVA?
My head is still hurting but Advil is finally starting to take the edge off. I am so tired but thankfully the nausea and dizziness are gone for now. Thanks for all the well wishes ladies. I'm in a dark room taking it easy over here. I hope this doesn't last too long.

Hang out with HH and A. Duh.
... but seriously it depends on if you have a car and how far you want to travel/what you'd like to see. The zoo is GREAT for toddlers and metro accessible. Same with the botanic gardens. The museums are insanely crowded so I'd bypass them all together TBH. If you're set on going, let me know your preferences and I'll give you and I depth rundown. If you have a car, there's lots of fun splash pads and parks in NoVa. I'd also check out what's going on at National Harbor. Udvar-Hazy and Mount Vernon are both super fun/kid friendly with lots of activities.
We're going to have a car and Mount Vernon is a must!

Step aside, Hillary Clinton. This is my new personal hero.
I went in to enter final grades this morning and a student had submitted her missing assignments, due April 30. Problem being....the term ended May 5th and she submitted these 10:15 pm on May 7th. She's already a retake so I'll have to have her for the 3rd time as it is a required class for the major. I gave her the F because I am thinking, consequences... too harsh?

If it wouldn't fly in the real world it shouldn't fly in college. Sorry not sorry.
ALSO, a number of times in college I could tell by the first week of classes, by reading my various syllabi, that I was going to be super overloaded on certain weeks. I would chat with my professors and, always, someone would agree to give me an extra week to work on a paper or something. Like, it's just not that hard if you keep tabs on your shit and an open line of communication.
OMG I just witnessed the most ridiculous toddler-style meltdown from one of my 16-year old students when my co-teacher took away her phone. The girl was playing pool on her phone while we were reading, my co-teacher warned her, and then the girl yelled "YESSS!" when she won in the middle of us reading as a class, so the phone was taken.
This girl SCREAMED and CRIED. My co-teacher called her mom, and while they were talking the girl was yelling "MOM JUST HANG UP MOM NO JUST HANG UP!" Then she gets on the phone with her mom "MOM TELL HER TO GIVE IT BACK TO ME NO NO NO I NEED IT I ONLY HAVE 10%", she starts literally crying "IT'S NOT MY FAULT SHE'S EXAGGERATING THAT'S NOT EVEN WHAT HAPPENED MOM!" Then she cried more and actually started stomping her feet "PICK ME UP I DON'T WANT TO BE HERE ANYMORE I'M NOT GOING TO STAY HERE ANYMORE" Finally my co-teacher and the mom agreed she could have the phone back at lunch and she ran off sobbing.
I have never witnessed anything like this in my entire teaching career.

Woooo congrats Mr catladymeow! That's so exciting. If it weren't for wanting to be near family I would love to head out east, it's so nice out there. I'm jealous!
It's nurses week and my work has a grand total of one nurse week poster up. It's standard paper size and in French, there's only a few of us here who speak French. The families have all been pretty amazing though and the break room is filled with treats. It would be really nice if management even acknowledged us this week but I don't have high hopes of that happening.
