Just a lazy day for me. I was super productive at work yesterday, so it's nice to be able to be 100% with DS rather than worrying about what needs to get done. Lame news of the day: I'm reading an e-book version for book club that I got from the library. I had one week, which evidently expired at exactly 8:45 this morning. Book club is tonight and I was half-way through the book.
My kid fought sleep last night until 1:30am. Then she was up again about two hours later...for another two hours. At one point she literally just sat on the floor in the dark with no toys babbling at nothing and sucking on the boppy tags for half an hour. She's also perfected a new level of inconsolable crying. What the what baby.
Yesterday our air conditioner broke. Remember I live in Texas so I would rather chop off my legs than go without AC.
Last night was a total cluster. I paid $150 to get an emergency AC repair man to come and tell me that the fix will cost 'several thousand.' Since we have a home warranty I was going to try that route first but was just told their next appointment is next Tuesday!!!!
We ended up spending the night with our neighbor and DS woke up fucking 8 times in the MOTN.
DH's tells me he has a great idea. He watched a YouTube video on how to make an AC unit. Wtf. This is coming from a guy who couldn't figure out how to put together the exersaucer together by himself.
Then! Dumb H loses our neighbor's key. After all their hospitality. I spent 2 hours searching and finally found it.
I am beyond exhausted and frustrated. I'm considering forking out the 'several thousand' at this point.
No amount of creepy Nicolas Cage pics can help this notch.
Boo to all of this!
Our air went out when we were living in Florida in July. We lived in an apartment so we didn't have to pay for the fix but we did have to wait of our painfully slow maintenance crew to do finally take care of it. We were relying on fans for a week. It was pretty awful.

I'm desperate to be out of my parents' house even though I can't afford it with the hours I work now. I keep looking at apartments and fantasizing about having my own kitchen again.

I get that. just having your OWN SPACE again
Right? Like it's annoying that as a 30 year old I still have to say things like, "mom, why are you in my room?"

I had a bad night because I don't get to see D as much as I'd like to since our schedules don't really ever match up and he's in his busy season at work and we live like 35 minutes apart. I cried a bit and then felt silly. The anniversary of DH's death is coming up, so I'm sure that played a part. Roller coaster emotions!
Then I couldn't sleep so I watched face massage videos on youtube for an hour and it put me to sleep. Take note, insomniacs!

I cannot do no A/C...i'm too much of a princess. I will melt. Losing the key? That totally sounds like something my H would do too. Punt his ass!

hahaha we lived with the IL's for 6 months and they're pretty good about personal space but STILL! Just want to be ALONE. DD was conceived in their basement. Is that awkward?

I'm sorry you had a rough night.
And now I'm going to google face massages. I didn't know they were a thing. Do you think they work on babies?
I looked at my lady bits the other day and I have a second hole. I'm pretty sure that is not normal. Like I don't think she stitched it all the way or something. So it goes normal vagina, second hole, butt.

Funny you should say that. A certain person who shall not be named mentioned baby facial massages on instagram. Her LO was not down.
kellrr Yes, it is! Right now we are just trying to get her back into the 1st percentile, so the more (good) fats the better. The pedi even suggested butter if we felt comfortable with that.
Also, T&Ps for your friend, her grandma, and family!

We were basement dwellers too. MIL took it very personally when we didn't come upstairs enough. She has zero boundaries so personal space was a huge problem for us.
After we moved out I was pregnant within two months!

I keep reading this as facial messages, for some reason.
Our weight check was this morning. 13 ounces in 3 weeks. He wants us to up her solids to 3-4 times a day, focus on high fat content, and continue the 1.5ml Zantac twice a day. FX she is back on the growth curve soon.
KayVeeKay, did the pediatrician want LO to gain more than 13 ounces? Hugs! I think I mentioned this before - DS1 dropped from 25% to 1% from 6 months to 9 months and he is still low on the weight charts almost 2 years later. Getting him to eat is a constant source of stress and arguments for DH and I. We used to put butter in his baby food to give him more calories (the fat isn't bad for them at that age) - maybe consider that?

DS has been doing this shit, too. Last night, he woke up at 3. He was fine in his crib as long as he could see me. But if I walked out he started screaming like I was pulling off his toenails. So I made a pallet on his floor and he played in his crib until he fell asleep.
