No snow, but sick kids. DS2 was up multiple times last night puking. Noah seems to mostly be feeling better and praying DS1 doesn't come down with anything. Sigh. We are supposed to have a rare date night tomorrow since our day care hosts a Parents Night Out a couple times a year. I really hope all 3 kids are well so we can have a couple hours kid free.
DX: Unexplained, possible Endo. October 2014: Letrozole + Trigger + IUI = BFP!!! Beta #1: 32 Beta #2: 77. Little Miss E born July 9th, 2015 Previously DarcyHermione
Today is my Friday. E slept straight until 6:15 and is in a really good mood right now. She keeps feeding the dog Cheerios, which I don't really want to allow, but I also don't want to ruin the happy mood right now.
Dylan woke up screaming at 2 and we brought her in bed with us. She obviously thought it was time to get up because she was up for two hours. She didn't want her pjs on so I took them off then she started messing with her diaper and I had to keep refastening it. I must have fallen asleep around 4 because when my alarm went off she was diaperless but hadn't peed in the bed which is good. I found the old soggy diaper on the floor next to my side of the bed.
I wish DH would do some of these middle of the night wake ups. He is a really sound sleeper and I can't wake him up. Kicking and punching do not work.

It hasn't snowed much since Tuesday, but the wind is so bad that there is no school for our district today. It's blowing everywhere.
I really need to do laundry today, and switch out F's toys. And give the baby a sponge bath. And cuddle the baby. and drink caffeine. I feel like everyday I'm just holding my breath and hoping we can make it to the end with everyone still relatively in one piece!
DD woke at about 3am and would not go back to sleep. She finally feel back asleep about 5:30am. Of course she has school this morning. I'm praying she behaves. Then I had a nightmare that people broke into my house and then I kept making lists for my go bag for when people break in and strategies of how to get out of the house. So I will be drinking all the coffee. Nothing exciting for the day unless you count grocery shopping.
It's overcast and drizzly/rainy. I miss the sun. At least it's not cold or snow covered. Hope all of you stir crazy girls can get out soon!
I was supposed to eat decently this week....ha! That has not worked out at all. I do much better when I'm in my routine and at work. I don't want the week to end though, I am not ready for the last 10 weeks of school.
360blessings, hope your boys are feeling better soon so you can go on your date night
So just read the budget proposal released and our department has a proposed 18% cut. Our Institute has a projected 19% cut. In the past we've had such bipartisan support that this is a shock to me (and I'm sure many others). Also, it's been shown that for every $1 spent on our institute there is a $6 return. When there are no longer major advancements in health research maybe this country will wake the f up.
I have a friend who is also a researcher and she is super upset. These budget cuts proposals are so crazy.
I really do not think you'll see a lot of GOP support for some of these cuts. They may bitch about spending but I can't see them actually axing meals on wheels, PBS, or NIH stuff. Sending good thoughts your way because I cannot imagine how stressful it is to have this hanging over you.
So are the blinds true? I don't care much about celebrities but parenting brought a blind into the teen Mom thread so now I want to know if it's true.
I would assume that one is true. I would not be surprised in the least about basically anything in there being true. Drugs: check Domestic violence: check Being absolutely BSC: check

@traceyos that sucks! I put L's diaper on insides out the other night and we had a big leak, but nothing compared to a toddler leak! I'm baffled because I must have had to twist the tabs around to get it to close, so how did I not notice?
I'm so mad at my H right now. How can someone be so responsible in some areas of life and so irresponsible in others?! I don't want to get into all the details, but he didn't get home from his event until 2 am and his car got towed somehow. He knows he f-d up, but I'm just so pissed I can't even look at him. He's downstairs meeting with a client and I just want to throw him out of the house. He has another work event tonight and I just asked my mom to come up and stay with me. I need some company so I don't just spiral on how mad I am at him.

I am on bereavement time for today and tomorrow. Tomorrow is my uncle's funeral. I need to get stockings at some point today. I ended up going out in the morning to bring BS his extra car key, because he lost his. I also got my eyebrows threaded, since the place was right across the street.

Can some one give me words for asking people not to use a certain nickname for HH? I mean her name is short enough FFS and it's not hard to say. Plus the NN is the name of a native nation and it would be weird for a lot of my friends/old coworkers for hear her called that.
Ohhh noooo. People need to not do that. I don't have any advice, but I have your back on this one.
Apparently R's daycare lets you take the summer off if you want. You can potentially lose your spot, but we were able to get him right in when we enrolled him with no waiting list, so I'm not sure how much of an issue that is.
I was SO looking forward to having him there 2x/week over the summer when I'm off work so I can write and get stuff done and have a damn moment to myself. Now that MH knows this is an option, he wants to pull R for the summer to save $1400.
a) We have separate finances, and I pay for daycare. b) He promises my mom and his mom will still come 3x/week, but I was promised that last summer and it didn't work out that way. c) In fact, every time I am promised free time to write or whatever it always gets compromised.
Am I crazy for paying $1400 I don't need to spend to have this free time over the summer? I just feel like no one respects my free time (or even my need for it), so despite all promises, I won't actually get any unless I pay for it.

@wafflesfriendswork depending on who it is I might let it go and continue to just say her name, tell them, "we don't call her that, " or actually go into the "that's a name for a group of people and I'm deeply uncomfortable calling my child that, please stop."
Mostly I'd keep calling her by her name and ignoring the cutesy nickname, probably. I hate cutesy nicknames.

A lot of NIH research is getting axed, or at least significantly postponed until thong either settle down or someone knows what's going on. We have several grants that we were told were awarded prior to administration change but the money still has not been released.
I am in a crappy mood and today is a day I wish I could walk in to my boss and quit on the spot. :/
