bluedot maybe some tea or hot water and honey? For some reason that helps me when I can't get to sleep. Or I pray. And I always seem to fall asleep as soon as I start praying LOL. #churchfail
squirm I wish! He's in his crib CIO. And of course now I'm wide awake.
And yes! I had anxiety about starting randoms lol. It's such an important task what if I would've messed it up some how?
bluedot I'm sure you'll feel ready to sleep as soon as T wants to play. Always seems to work that way for me.
I bought a black dress with a little shimmery stuff for this wedding im going to. But black dress, black tights, black shoes....too funeral-ish?? Winter is hard.
squirm Could you either change up the shoes to something with some color or add some jewelry that's got some sparkle? If it's an evening wedding in winter, I don't think there's any problem with black!
Since PB are blocked at my school, randoms are a total wash for me by the end of the day. But I wanted to pop in and say "hi" before the day gets going!
Also, total AW, but I'm SO excited about a package I'm mailing today! My cousin (who's too far away for me to visit) had her first baby in mid-December. She was incredibly helpful to me when L was born, as she's a pediatric ICU nurse who talked me down off a lot of ledges, so DH and I wanted to do something really special for her and her DH. So I put together a "date night in" care package! It has 7 numbered packages and "instructions":
- a dropper stopper so LO has his favorite toy/paci for the night - mini bottles of liquor for cocktails - a gift card for takeout from a really good local restaurant 4 miles from them - a redbox gift card for movies - 2 mini box wines - microwave popcorn - assorted movie candy
I hope she loves it! (And I know I'm not supposed to send liquids... don't report me, k? ;-)
squirm you could always add color with some jewelry or shoes.
I'm annoyed this morning. I got a promotion at my job not long after starting. I was promised a raise that I is not reflected on my paycheck this week. I'm definitely talking to my boss today. It's a lot of extra responsibility that I refuse to take on without the compensation I was promised. Wish me luck..
katm84 Do you have anything in writing (even an email) that would help back you up? That really sucks--I hope the conversation goes well!
Unfortunately I don't. It was a verbal agreement, but I went from office personnel to a management position. I'm the only one in management there, so I'm responsible for running the entire center. When she first offered it to me, she told me what my wage would be, I agreed and it should have been effective this pay period. I'm hoping it's an oversight so we'll see.
squirm nude tights and a colorful necklace or clutch is my vote.
I am painting a white toybox/bench for my landing. These paint samples were on sale so I bought a bunch. I'm not sure if I love the raspberry color though. Thoughts?
I am going to put it under that picture. one of my projects is to take that picture down and paint the frame black/brown.

Already this many posts at 6am! No wonder I struggle to keep up!
AW Warning: she slept in her bed til 5 am! She had a few wake ups but she went back to sleep without me getting her out of the crib. She hasn't done that since she started teething! I'm way too excited!
I hope this is a sign..but it's probably too good to be true.
squirm, I have a winter wedding to attend too, you're right, they are hard! I'm wearing black but adding color w/ jewelry and my clutch. Maybe something like that would work for you?
Ahhhh X woke up at 5:30, I was hoping I could feed him and put him back down so I could sleep another half hour and then get ready for work in peace but no go, he was wide wake and ready to go. He's playing now as though it's not 6am and he should be sleeping. WFT X?
I have to leave soon to drive to NJ for work. I hate longish drives and especially because we got a little snow and ice last night. For someone that's a life long New Englander, I get abnormally anxious driving in any type of bad weather. I also can't find my EZ Pass so I'm going to have to wait in line to pay cash for tolls.
squirm - I like the idea of nude tights and some pops of color. Jewelry and a colorful clutch?
Just caught up with randoms from yesterday. @elf828 - how is your LO doing? That picture broke my heart. I hope you guys have a better day today. MissDemeanor- I think it's completely understandable that you want to give your SO another chance. I hope he has truly changed and treats you the way you deserve.
Argh this board keeps blocking me! Thanks for all the help! I usually avoid nude tights bc I have such ugly legs (always always covered in bruises) but I will try it out. What about sheer black? Too Robert palmer addicted to love? Yes to the colorful clutch! And I will try with the fanceh jewelry but I am so impaired at the bedazzling.

My alarm just went off and for a good three minutes I was confused as to why I'd set an alarm for so early on a Saturday.... Then I remembered it's Thursday.... :-( *boo back to work
Good morning! I don't participate in randoms because I can't keep up, but I'm DYING over here because Octonauts just had an episode about blob fish and you ladies are all can think of!!
laur - that print is awesome. I'm not sure about the paint colour, but I find it tough to judge without seeing in person. What kind of light do you normally get in the room?
caer - I have some cookie butter that I got at my grocery store. Maybe it's not as good as TJ's, but I wasn't blown away by it. Grab some Nutella and call it a win.
LO got up at 6:30. I let him fuss in his crib while I showered. Now he's fussing in baby jail while I pump. I'm unsure what my h does in the mornings or why he needs to leave for work before 745, but I've accomplished more in 45 minutes than he has, and that's annoying me.
