I'm annoyed. I thought I had my day all planned out, and now I probably can't do any of it. I asked DH to sand the bottom half of the closet last night so today I could spackle the top half and paint the bottom half. Instead, he decided he would spackle the rest of the closet. He promised he would sand it all this morning so I could paint because he had some extra time before he had to go in to work. Except he didn't. So not only am I at a standstill with the closet because I think sanding will be too much for me, but he did a shitty job with the rest of the spackle and I'm probably still going to have to fix it after he sands. Again, I literally made a list. It said "I would like your help with these three things... So I can do these three things tomorrow..." but for some reason he thought he had a better plan
And then this morning he was downstairs with Bub and tried to bribe him to come upstairs by saying he'd buy him a toy. He apparently hasn't figured out yet that this DOESN'T FUCKING WORK. Not only am I not cool with bribing him with new toys for doing normal things like getting clothes on, but the mere mention of a new toy that he wants but can't have until tomorrow is enough to throw the kid into a hysterical tantrum. Which is what happened, and H came upstairs and got in the shower. I went downstairs to calm him down and he disappeared. He apparently decided to take his tantrum to the driveway for all the neighbors to hear. I had to run out on the driveway with no fucking pants on to grab him and bring him back inside. Now I'm having the worst SPD pain. I can barely walk. So going to the grocery store (the only other thing I needed to accomplish today) is also out. FML.

JoBub WTF that's a scary way to start your day. You deserve to relax and bitch at your H all day. Can you do curb side pick up for groceries to get one thing off the list.

I never thought about A opening the outside door.
Yeah we need to do something about the garage door. I put an alarm on it when we moved in but it kept falling off. The front and back doors are too heavy for him, but he can open the door to the garage and stand on the step and push the button to open the big garage door.
I think I can do same day Kroger Clicklist at one of the stores up here. It's a pain to do it from my phone though and my computer is being reimaged this week. I'll probably give it a shot.
Hs be Hing all day and all night. My H thought it would be a good idea after the 3rd crying wakeup of the toddler last night to scream at him to stop crying and go back to sleep and he woke the infant up and yeah. RIP H.

My niece did it motn and they have an alarm and heard the beeps of a door opening. Never trust a 2 yo. Never.
Z can't open the door knobs in our house yet, but he has a baby gate outside his door anyway. May put baby locks on the door too JIC because that's terrifying.
Get it together Mr becole and Mr JoBub! What are you two thinking?
::yawn:: C decided to wake up like every 30 mins starting at 4 am. And I'm taking N to her first dentist appt and I've got the worst cramps. This day is shaping up really nicely!
Sorry@jobub for the rough morning. But I'm lol'ing a little at your running outside with no pants eleventy weeks pregnant.
Oh I'm sure it was quite a sight if anyone happened to be looking out the window. I was wearing one of H's t-shirts. Bright orange of course. It barely covers my belly. Luckily my underwear is black and full-coverage so I keep telling myself it's not any different from being out in a bathing suit.... except I don't normally go on the driveway in my bathing suit either.
Been there JoBub, I'm sorry! We ended up putting these on our doors. Wanted something that the big could not reach/operate, but something that if for any reason was on and we absolutely needed to get through the door could be popped from the outside. I.e. Not burglar proof but toddler proof
My H is Hing too, but mild compared to you guys. He's a pushover and gives in to the boys at the smallest whimper. The big had chocolate milk for breakfast, asked for it and H caved. When he asked me for more, I said "no, we don't have chocolate milk for breakfast" and looked at H. H actually responded somewhat snappy, "you need to tell me all these rules." Excuse me? What planet am I on that it needs to be spoken a 3yr old shouldn't have chocolate milk for breakfast? WTF dude.
Hs be Hing all day and all night. My H thought it would be a good idea after the 3rd crying wakeup of the toddler last night to scream at him to stop crying and go back to sleep and he woke the infant up and yeah. RIP H.
I literally would have flipped my shit. That man would have been kicked to the basement or something. I don't know. That's just, no. Hope the day goes up from here. All the coffee.
bazingaa I think I actually have some of those somewhere that aren't being used. That's a good idea.
And my H does the same stuff. On Sunday as we were leaving the park at like noon, he said something like "you're so spoiled you got to have ice cream twice today!" And I was like "WTF?" I kept my mouth shut bc he let's me sleep in, but apparently it's a free for all before I get up on the weekends.
My inlaws arrive tonight. My BIL is coming too. He's beyond weird. Never come out here before. Didn't even come to our wedding. He's met the boys like twice, the last time we'll over a year ago. This is going to be interesting. Thankfully I'm leaving tomorrow with my mom to go to a wedding out of town. First weekend I've ever been away from my kids. My mom might see me really druuuunk. 😜

I did flip my shit and it was intense. Any time I try to say something about his parenting then it becomes an attack on me and that he was the one getting up and I shouldn't tell him how to parent or insinuate that he's a bad dad. He had a bad dad so it's like a mine field trying to navigate how to address parenting fails with him plus he is a very calm person with a short temper. I'm sure I was pretty harsh at 1Am. He usually takes time to process and apologizes but he cannot discuss parenting things rationally while it's happening. We probably should figure this out but I'm tired. I was very upset that c was provably afraid of the dark and he deserved love and understanding and not impatience. He wanted h to sleep with him and h can't because of his apnea. C did go to sleep after the yelling though surprisingly.
I get the "so you think I'm a bad dad" all the time. It's like, no, I'm trying to give pointers on what I've found works in the situation. Fascinating how men's brains all work the same. MOTN is prime time for harsh words and tempers though. Hopefully he can think during the day today and you guys can talk later.
Just got to my OB appt.... I tried to do a little routine maintenance yesterday after a looooong hiatus. And the battery died on my electric shaver. So the current state of my nether regions is awkward and embarrassing. And I just remembered they're doing the GBS swab today. Awesome.
ETA praise the Lord they didn't do it today! My appointments got all messed up because of the beetus. So 35w isn't a normal appt. And now my 36w appointment is only 4 days from now which seems silly. Anyway, I have 4 days to get this shit under control.

Hope your H's get their ish together. Sounds like they all drank from the same contaminated lake yesterday becole, JoBub, bazingaa.
JoBub - I made H do my ladyscaping over the wknd. It was was past due. The only reason I even wanted it was because I know I have the GBS at my next appt. and wanted to look decent.

So I'm not sure wtf is wrong with me, but it has not been a good past 15 hours. I started throwing up last night around 7PM. I do not feel like I'm coming down with something, so I initially thought just morning sickness, since I haven't fully shaken it this pregnancy. But then it happened again, and again. And I couldn't get comfortable in any position, and didn't want any food. And now this morning my stomach is not happy and I woke up on the toilet... I don't even know how it's possible with all the throwing up I've done at this point.
I'm having some cereal with milk because I was so nauseous with hunger, but now I'm nauseous with this is gross and I don't want it.
And I'm sleepy, so dang sleepy. It's H's birthday and I feel bad we have no plans, but I just want to lay here.
I just remembered I have to go get a new background check as my reward for surviving 5 years at my job. Might as well go do that today so I won't have to leave the house tomorrow. At least I'll feel like I got something productive done. I hope my fingerprints aren't jacked up from being poked 4 times a day.
