If you are going in for a flu test, don't use a neti pot right before you leave the house. They swab your nose to test for the virus. I think that's why DS got diagnosed with the flu and I didn't.
How many colds give coughing, sore throat, fever over 102, extreme aches, tiredness and headache?
I can't stop coughing. I pee when I cough. Pregnancy is so glamorous.
I woke up at 3:30 this morning to use the restroom and realized that I ripped out my infusion set. I spent about 10 minutes in the restroom trying to figure out how to get it back on because I was so damn tired. Apparently I was too tired to think straight because I never pulled the sticker backing off which meant I had to get back up and do it all over again.
Happy Friday the 13th. Hopefully this is bad as the day gets.
It was a real struggle at 1:30 in the morning, after my 3rd bathroom break, trying to decide whether or not to gulp down the rest of my water for my parched mouth or to deny myself of it because I didn't want to have to get up an hour later just to pee it all out. I ended up gulping it down and thankfully didn't get up for anymore pee breaks!!
All I do lately is bitch about how I can't sleep, but whatevs. Last night I got all settled in with my bazillion pillows and thought I was good to go, but apparently I picked the wrong one to go between my knees (eye roll at my own knees/hips) because I had to wake up a zillion times to try to get comfortable.-

it is ski weekend with my family! Drove up here last night and while every one else is sking today I get to sit in the ski lodge and veg out and people watch. My uncle is here with his twins and they are learning to ski today!
She decided a few weeks ago that she wanted to throw her own shower for me, and my family throw their own separate one for me. Which is totally fine. But because she's so excited about this baby, she decided to have an early shower which is scheduled for this Sunday. Well, since it was all so last minute, the invites went out so late and she sent them out in the middle of w blizzard which delayed them even longer. By the time it got to the guests, it only gave them a couple days to RSVP by. Some didn't get them till well after the RSVP date. Needless to say, not a lot of people are able to make it since she gave no one any notice.
Now fast forward to now... Weather for this weekend is saying we're getting a nor'easter, 8-12 inches of snow, and could see blizzard conditions at some points. My SIL and I are trying to talk her into finding a "rain date" in case we need to post pone. Well, my MIL won't even discuss that. Her rationale is: "everyone who's coming lives close anyway". Um NO. If it's blizzard conditions and all, I don't want people risking their lives to come to my shower. Not to mention that most people will probably not come anyway!!! I get that she's very excited about this and is just in denial that she has to cancel it, but come on. Let's be smart about this. She's a very stubborn woman.
Happy Friday the 13th. Today is my last day of work (fly home next week) Last fucking day, and I have no idea when I'll be back working again. It's slightly scary, but also slightly "omg omg omg sleep in's" Also last day of training the new girl, I might get her doing some finances so I can probe for an hour hehe.
One other thing, my friend bought me a Prenatal massage for 1hr which I've booked in after work. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh shiiiiiiiiiiiiit I'm going to get my relaxation on

Strongly considering getting out of bed to get a shamrock shake from McDonald's...do you think they will add the chocolate chips from the chocolate chip frappé for me? Hahha! I'm fat.
It's been a crazy work week (15 hour days) for me so I've missed so much of what's going on here. I hope all the mamas and babies are doing well! I'm waiting to start my GTT and am super excited to have a full hour of free time to catch up with everyone and everything!

DS is 3 years old today.
Oh no! Feel better soon! And happy birthday to your little guy. Hopefully since he's only three his flu won't turn into a full blown "man flu". We all know how that goes.

DH and I order it that way all the time or with Oreos.
Now I want one even more. This will happen at some point today!
The house I grew up in is for sale, and my mom found its virtual tour online and emailed it to me. I went through it and cried like a baby. I miss my house!
Starbuck128, hope you and DS start feeling better soon! And amylee545, hopefully your MIL will come to her senses. I definitely agree with you! If you already think not many people are coming, maybe it's best to have a backup plan if the weather isn't planning on cooperating either.
Randoms I didn't wake up last night to pee. It was wonderful. (Sorry all you guys that did. I just had to rub that in for a second) I had an amazing avocado and egg breakfast. ANDDDDDD we are having our Valentine's Day party today with my kiddos. Yes I HATE the day but I get to vegggg out on all of this chocolate. Life is wonderful today. Besides it being Friday the 13th. I'm trying to ignore that fact.
And speaking of weather. It's hard to pack for a potentially cold beach vacation normally, but it's REALLY hard to pack for a potentially cold beach vacation with a limited maternity wardrobe. This weekend is going to be interesting weather wise. But being at the beach when it's a little chilly is better than being at home for Mardi Gras this year!
adetheridge I am so jealous. I have my glucose test right after school today so I probably shouldnt stuff my face with ALL THE CANDY AND TREATS that will be at our preschool Valentines Party. GRRRRR. OB said eat however I want up until an hour before the test...and now that I think about it, I have been shoving my face with candy all week so maybe I SHOULD eat all the candy and treats...
sunshyneshay I was going to get a latte this morning but now I want a shamrock shake!
***the fact that I have my glucose test today has me nervous about both of these decisions...
My colleague (who I was hoping would take over from me as team leader of our first and second grade team ) left today we tried to hire an experienced teacher to replace her, since the other teachers either haven't taught juniors before or are fresh out of uni and don't have the experience yet to run things. But nope, only graduates applied so now I have another graduate that needs my help. I don't mind mentoring, but I'm going on leave in a term. Worried about what will happen when I go.
Eta: sense cos I seem to struggle with that on Fridays
I totally sympathize with you… We have a brand-new teacher on our team this year and me and my other colleague are both pregnant. Thankfully the other girl will be ending her maternity leave as I start mine, but that also means I am spending the last part of my pregnancy helping a long-term sub and a new teacher AND planning for my sub...
I hope the next few months go smooth for you and me!

I was supposed to have mine today. Then the stupid place called and was like "your person is going to be out of the office that day" after I have been frantically trying to find someone to cover my class so I could leave at 2:00 and we dismiss at 2:30 so I wasn't trying to take a half a day. I was so mad. Then I was like NOPE...that just gives me a day to stuff my face lol So I go next Wednesday. FX everything goes fine!

Wow- best of luck to both of you!!! I taught high school last year and when I took the job the teacher who I replaced had left me absolutely NOTHING. So when DH and I moved this past fall I made sure to be as thorough as possible for the new teacher/temporary sub coming in (although as a first time teacher I had to google search "what to put in a long-term sub plan" haha). I hope both of your terms go smoothly and transitions are easy!!!
