Hugs portuguesemama. It's hard cause you feel like there is always something to do. And you work EVERY SINGLE NIGHT! I think you have earned a night on the couch ASAP. LLR will always be there tomorrow!

graciest719 and malvo - Thanks ladies! This week is just busy because I'm stupid and planned live sales every night and albums on Saturday. I had a sucky end to last week and now my hostess for an in home on Monday is in the hospital so I need to get some sales. Fingers crossed! Saturday night is when I'll hopefully get to sit and watch DVD and sleep even more! But graciest you are so right that there's always something to do! I feel so behind all the time!!
portuguesemama, you'll eventually learn how much you can handle and how much you WANT to handle. I do 5 sales a week and I only ship 2 or 3 days a week, and those days just depend on my schedule. BUT, GIRL, you cannot die while selling LLR. Please, don't. Have you ever thought about just doing ONE weekly sale in your group? I mean, I get what you're doing with the live sales and I think it's GREAT because I'm a scaredy cat and won't do them, LOL.. but, at some point, I think it's going to wear you out. Like, I'd rather do ONE sale and sell a bunch in ONE night vs. a few every day and having to invoice/pull/ship a few things every day. Does that make sense? Or maybe ONE album and ONE live? I dunno! I'm almost 6 months in and just now getting into a comfort zone.

Yes yes and yes. Haha. This week was not a smart decision. Typically I do one or two live sales a week. That's it. Idk what I was thinking this week. Haha.
I definitely don't feel like I'm in a groove yet. Just trying to get the product in front of my group so they can buy. Definitely need to figure out how many nights I want to sell and all that, but I'm just not there yet.
portuguesemama, Can I somehow order you to a timeout on the couch all weekend? No cooking, cleaning, or LLR until sunday! Get someeee rest
If only! DH is working a 24 from Saturday at 3pm to Sunday at the same time. Which means he'll go to work tomorrow night at 11p, come home to sleep Saturday morning until like 1p and then go back.
But I'm hoping for at least a couple hours of chill time.
DC called and said M is not herself and is running a slight temp of 101.4. She's eating fine, though. I'm guessing it's from the vaccines? Director said if I'm confident she's not sick and it's delayed reaction to the vaccines, then she'll keep her. Obviously, if something changes and she's outright miserable and her temp goes higher, they will call. But hopefully she can make it to 5!
Anyone else's kiddo have delayed reaction to vaccines? She just had flu and Hep B.

We did! I think it was at D's 1 year vaccinations. He was exactly like you described just not himself but otherwise okay. I wanna say it took him a good two days to get over the delayed reaction
maddisonrose Oh, good! M usually has a rough night immediately following vaccines, but is then fine. This would be the first time that it took a bit for her to react. Girlfriend just got over a sinus infection and then a cold. She can't possibly be sick again. Like, that would just be ridiculous!
@megaugust10 How are you feeling after everything that happened yesterday?
I am doing ok. I applied for unemployment yesterday and chip today to get e insurance since I was the one who had it for everyone. I saw something I could apply for and 1 that either my hb or I since he is looking for something better as well.
So, DC does an assessment at certain ages to let parents know what their kid is up to at school.
M doesn't talk at school, apparently. WUT. She has 20+ words! I have video proof of some of them! One teacher for the afternoon said, "Yeah, she really doesn't talk when she's here." Huh. Weird. It's like she's an observer at school and puts all that she learns to use at home.
They also said she won't get an object when you ask her to. At home, she'll get her ball, kitty, sippy cup, she'll throw garbage away when asked, etc.
Why is my kid pretending to not understand direction / to not be able to speak when at school?!

malvo O is the same. She started taking and participating a bit this week. She's just shy and it's such a clusterf**k there that I think she is just overwhelmed by the crazy. I wouldn't stress about it. You know her best
malvo both my kiddos have fevers following vaccines. Typically delayed. Also, M's personality strikes me as an introvert or shy. By what you say she likes to sit back and observe her surroundings, take it all in. Not bad traits at all!
Thanks, ajacot924. M is definitely on the shy side, too. We have the option to meet with the teacher about the evaluation. I may do that and share what she's doing at home, so DC knows that she's definitely learning and flourishing.
rvamama You're right. She's definitely introverted! My nephews were up from Maryland (6 and 3), and she just wanted to sit on my lap with a toy and play and observe. She wouldn't play on the floor until her Pappy got down and coaxed her over. She doesn't wander far from her comfort zone. But she's clearly soaking it all in and learning! I just want to make sure DC knows what she's up to at home so they know what she's taking away from being there.
This evening is going so well! F didn't eat much. Again. But we've cleaned up, which was SO needed; kids are hitting the sack then I'm logging back into work. Being last day of the month tomorrow I feel I have a ton to do!
Cannot wait until this weekend! After being gone last weekend I am looking forward to time spent at home.
The dog puked bile because she still refuses to eat and her stomach is pissed. I put beef broth on her food to see if she'd eat it. NEWP. Stupid dog. A cat also puked. Double whammy.
My pets are assholes.
M is definitely not feeling 100%. We did a bath and I put Serenity essential oil on her feet. I hope she has a good, peaceful sleep.
I didn't eat dinner but I'm not super hungry. I really just want to crawl into my bed and pass out. Can SO come home now? Day 8.

P was in such a weird mood this evening. Just super moody and unlike himself. I hope he is just having an off day and not getting sick. One of the kids in his class went home sick today :/
