junkytrunk, 3 days is my limit too. If he's still running a fever this morning I'd be bringing him in, especially if he isn't acting normal or complaining about his tummy.
My mom and sister come next week and I'm super excited. They get to see the new place and help make some design decisions with me!! Plus they can help with some little projects and help get things on the walls. I'm so thrilled. Man I miss having my family closer to me. I've seen them 4 times this year and we have this coming up and I think we are planning no them coming up here in Oct too for Mom's 75th. I'm spoiled this year. This never happens.

Ok i got an appt for this afternoon. He came home on Saturday night throwing up and then wasn't feeling good Sunday. He seemed fine Monday and then when I picked him up on Tuesday he was complaining about not feeling well, and here we are now. He's barely eating, and it's so not like him.
Holy cow guys. Henry has been doing speech since last fall so about a year and his speech pathologist tokd us today he only needs one or two more sessions then he's done and she's going to have a party for him!!!!! This is so bittersweet. Hes obviously made HUGE improvement this last year. I just cant inagine where we would be with out her! I'm going to miss her so much!
It's William's birthday! I can't believe it has already been a year and only been a year if that makes sense. Feel like I've had him forever. We went to a place called Jumpin'. It's a place with a bunch of bounce houses set up. They both loved it! Macaroni and cheese and cookie cake to celebrate.
A couple of baby questions for you because I forget everything.
When did you let your kids start sleeping with little pillows, stuffed animals, etc? Do you switch them to whole milk or skim at 1? Thanks!
I think I let aubrey have more stuff in her crib after she turned one. She might have had a pillow before then. But she rarely slept on a pillow until she was older, maybe 2.
We kept Shane on whole milk for a while after he turned one because I wanted him to have the extra fat and protein because he didn't eat meat and had a limited diet. With Aubrey we were already switched to 2% so she just got that.

I took care of a bunch of things I was putting off this afternoon. I feel so much better. Why do I always put things off then worry myself for no reason? It's like I like to be anxious, I'm a little mad with myself now!

Well the dr said it was most likely just a virus and to wait it out. He said if he's the same by Monday, then we can look into other possibilities. I hate that!

somethingcleverer I do the same thing! And then I kick myself for being so stressed about it in the first place.
Probably a TMI vent ahead...My H is really starting to irritate me. It's been no secret that the past years I've expressed how our sex drives haven't really jived. And for about 2 or so years, it was me initiating or nothing would happen. all.the.time. And then to top it off 75% of the time I'd get turned down which is a huge self esteem killer. Well, between the hustle of 3 kids and all the stuff going medically with me, I've really dropped in that department. Not just stopping on my part but just saying no or not being interested. The last week or so my H has seriously been the biggest baby about it. WTF dude! I went through this for years and didn't put up the stink you are about it. He claims he's trying on his end, but his trying is waiting until I'm asleep (because he's on his phone in bed) and then trying to push for it which then I say no to. And he's claiming that he's trying all.the.time and me turning him down is making him question things and stuff. It's actually kind of funny but not because I've been there. He literally just sent me a message saying that 3-4x a week would be ideal. A big LOL to that!!
bliz1712, men are such assholes when it comes to sex. My H was a real douche when I was pregnant the first time and having some issues that were causing sex not to happen. He was kind of ugly about it until one day I exploded. Be serious, dude! Medical and life issues are involved It's not like they're just being told no for sport.
That's frustrating bliz1712. It's funny when the scenario flips and they can't handle it. It makes me wish that I had recorded all of the conversations we had had and play them so he would hear that it used to be the other way. And I like that they think by being pouty they will get more. Yeah you acting like a baby is the way to turn me on.

Exactly!! I hate when my h gets super moody and pouty when he hasn't gotten any for a while. It's a total turn off!!
Seriously you guys, I don't know how much more I can take of this hypocrisy. Yesterday he mentioned throwing away the toy. Because apparently he stays awake all night long thinking I'm going to use one to get things started, because that's logical. Mind you I've done this like 5x in our 12 year relationship. I told him not to and that's a stupid reason. The fucktard threw away my expensive one!!! I'm not even kidding! WTAF dude!
I'm sure this is trivial compared to some relationship fights, but seriously this has always been the one area that we disagree or argue about the most. I think I'd rather argue about money over this.
somethingcleverer exactly. And I guess what's irritating me the most is I went through this for a long time and it wasn't a concern of his. Now he's on the flip side and I'm supposed to bend over immediately. Makes me feel like my feelings don't matter.

Oh my goodness I'm starting radiation tomorrow 😳. I'm going today for some "films" and tomorrow is my first official day. I'm so nervous but excited to get this over with and be done!

bliz1712, that's so shitty of him to a) not have patience and understanding with you and b) to throw away something that is yours and you told him you wanted to keep. To me that's so disrespectful. Once he apologizes for being an ass, maybe the two of you can sit down and put together a schedule or something? Say you make time to DTD once a week? I know it's not fun to schedule it, but maybe it would help with both the expectations and the frustration. Just a thought.

somethingcleverer, how long do you have to do radiation? And if you don't mind me asking, what's the reasoning behind radiation after chemo and surgery? Apologies for my lack of knowledge on the subject. Regardless, good luck and I hope it goes well for you!

I need to do 25 treatments and I go every weekday off sat/sun. The reason they want me to do it is so the cancer doesn't come back on my chest wall. They determine it by the size of the tumor and since mine was larger I need to do radiation to make sure all the cancer cells are gone. I also had a lymph node that was questionable if it had cancer in it (it looks like there could have been cancer that was gone from treatment) so they are radiating the lymph nodes too. Hopefully it won't be too bad. The side effects are usually burning and itching of the treated skin and drowsiness towards the end of treatment.

How long do you have to have it? My coworker had to have it for two weeks after her breast cancer surgery. You got this!

bliz1712,I'm sorry. He isn't being reasonable at all about this stuff. It's not anything that you can control at all and you have been on the flipside of it so you'd think he'd be more understanding. Ugh! somethingcleverer, 5 weeks to go. You got this. Almost done!
somethingcleverer, you got this girl! I'm bummed you have to do the radiation after the chemo seemed to help time, but I understand the reasoning. 5 more weeks. Only 5 more weeks.
@bliz172, not cool. I would tell him if he's really that interested in ST, then he needs to initiate and play attention to you before your already asleep.
I don't entertain anything after I'm already sleeping, fuck that shit. You wait, you miss our. And the pouting, annoying.... The last thing I want to do is get intimate with someone who whines about not getting what the want.

Yes! Whining and pouting is the biggest turn off of all time. I deal with that shit from my kids. Seriously.
