Friday Feels & Weekend Update!

[RM80]

How's everyone doing? Anything you want to get out there? feel good about? etc.  Also- tell us what's up on the weekend agenda!

I tried to gif- but I'm having all kinds of issues! Ugh!

[RM80]

I have way too many feels to put down- my hormones are always a mess when I'm on progesterone!

Tonight we have a 'fancy' dinner with some friends at a restaurant we normally wouldn't go to, but we have a groupon so I'm excited to try it! Tomorrow I need to do house stuff, clean, wash dogs, etc. but tomorrow night we're going to our first roller derby match! Should be fun!! And Sunday- no plans yet, but I'm guessing standard Sunday shopping and meal prep.

We're both on maternity leave through August. So everyday feels like a Saturday to us. We've been at each other's throats this morning because she feels she needs to sleep whenever the baby is asleep (she's 17 days old). I'm of the opinion of sleeping a little during the day, just not every time the baby goes down. Ahhhhh parenthood. This weekend we will try and pick up the house and get some tomato cages for our monstrous maters that are taking over our garden!

Work is slowing down a bit to a manageable pace so I've decided to fill all my extra time working on the house. I spent 4 hours in the garden yesterday and today I'm hoping this:



Turns into this:

I'm having all the feels. Whenever M wakes up at night (or I wake up cuz she usually wakes up) I can't go back to sleep. I end up lying there worrying for hours. Last night around 5 am I woke up my wife and had a full meltdown at that hour. Most of this was precipitated by my brother calling in the middle of the workday yesterday to tell me they are expecting #2. Their DD is like 14 months old. They are coming to visit this week and now I'm dreading it. They know we've been trying too so it's almost worse.

Work is busy. I need to work more. M is very aware of us coming and going and gets upset when one of us isn't around in the regular routine so I also want to be home more.

And some days I just feel like giving up.

We are doing lots of family things this weekend.

Feeling ready for the wife to get back - it's been a week and some moments it feels like longer. I'm exhausted!

I had a pretty good tour of a potential in-home daycare. It's hard to be discerning but open minded at the same time.

This weekend we have no set plans. I'd like to go to a local lake to swim and build sand castles. Maybe also the discovery museum. That said laying around and relaxing sounds pretty good too.

[RM80]

Stringy- I hope this weekend goes ok with the brother, I'm sorry!

[wittyandwaiting]

This is me waiting for beta results.


I don't know why I am feeling so anxious but I am.

Stringy, that all sucks; I hope the weekend goes better than expected.
RM80, also sorry about all the feels and how did you get that headline!?!?!

[RM80]

I'm sending you all the good juju I can this morning wittyandwaiting!!

[wittyandwaiting]

Thanks RM80! Keeping it all crossed for you too!

I had Friday off since the kids' last day of school was Thursday and camp doesn't start until Monday. DW worked at home in the AM while I did stuff around the house and the kids played in the playroom. We finally loaded everyone up and took them to see Inside Out (so cute!) After their friend went home, we took the kids for much needed haircuts, had an early dinner, and got the kids to bed early since they were up late the night before with their BFF and are going to be up late night at a birthday party. DW and I finished the last episode of OITNB.

No big feels. It was nice to be off of work, but the kids were grouchy from going to bed late (even though I had them all in bed at a decent hour) and being up early. I was happy when they got into bed.

Phase 1 of side yard clean up is done. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Dear god yes! Everything can be a symptom. Was that implantation or digestion? Why am I tired? I just want this to happen for all of us. Holy moly, I'm on mobile so this might be ginormous. Sorry!
