I always felt like I had Ferber in my back pocket. It isn't working. Now what?!
mamosey - I am sorry. Nothing, and I mean nothing worked with DD1 either and I remember feeling just like this. For us it just took time. Keep doing the things that are working a little, and just make it through. It will work eventually, it can just be painfully slow at the time.
DD1 sleeps in her own bed, but she still has bad dreams and wakes up, and needs to potty get drinks of water in the night more than some other three year olds. I probably get up with her once a week. So it gets better, some kids are just tought. I like to think it is because she is so smart she just can't turn off the thinking! Times when they are learning new skills, walking, talking, etc. are sometimes particularly hard.
With LO, it isn't much better, but my attitude is better because I know we are at that really tough place and it will get better.
Hang in there! If nothing else know I am right there with you!
I got Joshua Jackson on last night's quiz, and Leonardo DiCaprio for the Valentine one. I would have preferred Zach Morris.... I need to take the kids to school soon, and I want to stay in my sweats to do so, but I also need to go to Kinkos, and this outfit isn't actually okay for the public to see. Does anyone have any good remedies for razor burn? I used my crappy razor yesterday and it was not kind to my legs. I finally threw it out and bought the razors I like yesterday.
Last night I was trying to think of who should be my 90's crush and said to DH "I can't decide, I had so many" and he called me a Ho.
Hahhaaha! That's hilarious. I didn't really crush too hard when I was a teenager. I'm making up for it now, though. I have so many crushes I can't keep up.
laur - hugs. That stinks, all of it. Poor DD too!!
I have seen the pics from my ILs in Chicago, I hope all you cold weather folk stay warm and dry today! Fsnow!
Also - I'm getting friend requests on FB from F14ers that I don't know who you are, I thought we've gone over this, send a pm with a heads up with who you are. It's courtesy, yo!
Thanks @disneypeanut carseatbunny! I think it went well and it was moved up because of a scheduling issue, which may be a good thing because my boss was in the process of putting in for promotions. FX I get selected from the list!
iwubrory. Pretty much. The only room for improvement is how long we (read karlamo) soothes him. We've been at it for 9 days and he was up 6 times last night. Each time doing the progressive crying. At 4:45 mama needed sleep and we brought him to bed.
Ratting me out I see??? To defend myself, I think he needs to catch his breath before the next round of screaming happens. And the longest I ever stay in there is like 5 min.
There must be something wrong with me. I can't think of a single celebrity crush that I had as a teen. Did I find certain celebrities attractive? Sure. But I never did the posters on the wall thing and I never read Tiger Beat or any of those other magazines. Teenage Jammers was apparently as boring as grown-up Jammers. Whomp whomp.
laur I'm sorry you had a shitty morning but I'm glad Luke Perry ala 90's GAP ad could help you!! Also, I'm so glad you dropped the second and third Laurs... I always felt like I was starting a lecture, "Laur Laur Laur.. when will you remember to wash your hands before dinner"
bookshelves I was with you until Glitter Mike Vitar. That was just too much.

Random FB friending annoys me too. I'm not interested in being FB friends with all of f14 (sorry not sorry). The friends you may know is my least favorite thing about FB.

Question for the technologically savvy ... how do I get the tapatalk app to stop notifying me every time someone likes my posts? I changed that setting on the web version and no longer get like notifications on my laptop, but I still get them on tapatalk. Help!
I just lovingly picked some black beans out of my chili because LO likes them. He smashed them and then wiped his hand on the wall. Feeling the love, LO, thanks.

So the BF and I got into it before work over our daycare situation and it's really getting to me. We pay a lot for our day care but that's the going rate around here. It's hard to find something cheaper and I don't want something cheaper bc I don't trust the quality of care LO will be getting. Out here we only have in home day care and it's hard for me to trust someone with him and I've finally found someone I trust and adore. But today LO is sick and can't go so he's stuck with my mom who I really would prefer didn't watch him but I have no other choice. The BF doesn't understand why I can't just find a baby sitter who is a. Cheaper, and b. Will take a sick kid. I really don't understand why we're on opposite sides of this thing

Stuck in the box.
Go to Settings on your phone, then click the Tapatalk app in the list of apps toward the bottom. Then click Notifications, then on Allow Notifications, turn it off there. I have the Iphone, so if you have a different phone it may be different.
Does it make me antisocial that I still haven't blended my Facebook world with my F14 world? As much as I love you guys, I'm still not sure I'm ready for ya'll to know my real name.
(I still love you though ... please don't kick me out)
Can I be an AW? My morning went something like this: My house filled up with smoke because the door for the pellet stove was not closed properly (thanks DH for rushing this morning). I had to turn it off, open the doors and windows (yes, during the snow) and then clean it all out. I got it to light all by myself and the house is getting toasty again.
I shoveled the whole damn driveway because numb nuts buried the snow thrower (which is still intimidating) when he was trying to find his suitcase (which was NOT in the garage). Its a slushy/wet/heavy snow and I killed it.
I feel like I should run outside and remind everyone in the cul de sac how awesome I am.
TL;DR I made fire all and shoveled snow all by myself.

But won't that turn off all notifications? I still want notifications if someone tags me or sends me a PM. I just don't need to know every time someone "likes" something I've said.
