westiemom , moving? Good luck with the search and also this weekend!!

Yep! DH bought a practice so we are moving out of the big city to a small 14,000 person town! We plan to move around Christmas!

That's not small.

There are 4,700 people in my small town. We had 2,400 in the high school I graduated from so this town is just like 2 of my high schools. 

[gahorseygal]

I've never googled how many people are in our little town. Haha its so small!!

[gahorseygal]

I am so stressed about this job offer. But I think I'm realizing I don't really want the job because I'm stressing about it. I'm worried about turning it down, I've never done that, so it's a bit scary. But it doesn't feel right and I need to trust my gut. I think if I didn't have a job I would take it (after some negotiating) but because I am working and I am making money I don't feel as pressured.

birkmmm poor guy! I hope he feels better soon!

snoris I hope you get some rest! Don't feel bad asking for help. Parenting when sick is awful.

o2girl you are a hot mama! It's hard to remember that sometimes though I know. I have no doubt your hubby knows how lucky he is to have such a good looking wife!

kateisoptimistic how's the bottle going? Sorry about your DH flight.

No word from daycare yet so hopefully all is going ok, I told them to call me if any issues

[kateisoptimistic]

Also, since I'm working from home and sent baby to DC, this is the first time I've been home alone since he was born. I forgot what this was like

[k3am]

So, our COO just called.. SOMEONE wired in $18,000,000 from the Cayman Islands. Without letting anyone know who or why and nothing included in the wire for us to figure out where it should go.

I let him know that he's welcome to wire it over to my personal account if he needs a place to park it..

OH, to be rich enough to just wire out $18 MILLION dollars all willy nilly.

There are so many zeros in that number I had to think hard about what number that was..... 😂

[k3am]

I deal with a lot of zeros. But usually not that many being deposited!

I usually work from home 1-2 days a week. The first time it was just me at home felt so wrong.

[fishbulb]

Sorry for everyone who is having crappy days. I hope they improve!

Neither of the kiddos are seriously ill, but MH is home with some sort of stomach bug. I really hope it's food poisoning and not a virus. DNW puking little ones on a three day weekend.

[fishbulb]

I don't feel like working so I'll PW.

Today we got an invitation to MH's cousin's wedding. It's in three weeks and an eight hour drive away. I'm going to assume they don't really want us there but would still like for us to send them a present.

similar story here... Just got a save the date for a wedding in the Dominican Republic... 😂 Welp. I wish. But no.

[snoris]

FFC I have decided I have a man cold. My fever is getting worse not better and I am convinced I'm going to die.

[k3am]

snoris, have you at least taken drugs for the fever???

[snoris]

you know I'm phobic of medicine right? 😔 Plus Dr. Google says it's better left untreated so it can fight my cold? It's 101.75 😷🤒🤕😴😲😥

[k3am]

Give me all the drugs. Especially dealing with an infant. I'd rather limp along at 4 days at 80% than spend 3 days at 50%.

[snoris]

I called the Dr and they said I should take medicine. I'm going to have a panic attack! I realize this is ridiculous but the fear is real. Thank God for the weekend and MH being able to help me.

[birkmmm]

I'm so pissed the ear drops Ryker needed were $60 and there was a coupon but the fine print doesn't allow you to use it if the patient isn't above 6mo ... Wtf

I don't even know how to respond to that. That's ridiculous.

[ellesea]

Take all the drugs snoris.

birkmmm I must have missed a post I didn't know he was sick. Poor guy must not be very happy. Also that coupon is ridiculous.

We spent 4 happy hours at the dino park today. It's huge, there were so many play structures and it even had work out equipment for adults.

[babycaps]

Hmm...my bank account and I volunteer as tribute to store 18Million bucks!!!
And not being able to use the coupon sounds ridiculous!!
And 4700 or 14,000 is so small in my mind but I DO see the appeal. I am a city girl, but if someone told me I have to move to the country.....nope. Nope...I would NOT be ok with it. But I do see the appeal for many people!

snoris, girlfriend...take some ibuprofen!

birkmmm, i'm so sorry about the ears. that sounds miserable.


Lastly, how is this for random....I for some reason thought of Mr. Shicksal....remember? The guy who WAS on our board early early on?

Got DS2's brazilian passport done (well, applied for it) today. That was a big important part of my "maternity leave" list of things-to-do.

I GO BACK TO WORK TUESDAY. Someone HOLD ME :/

[teraiin]

So we splurged to have Amazon overnight something since their two day shipping has not been two days.

Surprise surprise overnight shipping is apparently two day shipping. They will be getting a call since I didn't pay for overnight shipping to not get the item the next day 😡

[snoris]

I took Tylenol and it went from 101.85-101.08 in 1.5 hours. Right direction! AND the medicine didn't kill me. Yet.

[snoris]

And my dad called to tell me he's starting a goat farm to raise enough money to buy harvesting tools to start a bamboo farm.... (He's not a farmer) his game plan is to send a message to Mexico and find a person who was just laid off from working a goat farm in Mexico then give them free room and board to run the farm while he figures out how to make money from the goats. He also informed me that my college age sister's life plan is to find a pastor to marry and live like the Duggars. 😒🤔🤗👍🏿

[wanderlust]

snoris- LT for support, hope you feel better!

o2girl- Ouch, sorry for the pilates reformer injury! And you do NOT look shitty, stop it!

kateisoptimistic- Hope your stash is OK!

birkmmm- So sorry for the rupture/ear infection!

teraiin- That's BS! Get it together Amazon.

[wanderlust]

I was supposed to have a house cleaner come today at noon. She kept pushing the time back and finally at 4 I texted her and she said she had car troubles and couldn't make it. Ugh pissed! My floors really needed a good cleaning too. On a positive note, my in-laws came over and I handed L off so I could take a shower. Crazy how much I appreciate a shower now haha!

That thermometer is remarkable precise.
