Trying to knock out a few random "personal business" things that I have been procrastinating this morning...
So far I have ordered checks for my check book and registered with Gazelle to sell my old cell phone (they are sending me a box to send the phone in). What else can I knock of the list?!?!
Also... A coworker who had a baby 8 weeks ago came back from maternity leave this morning. She looks AMAZING. Like, smaller than her pre-pregnancy self. She was talking about how she managed to lose all her weight by 4 weeks post partum. WHAT?!?! That is just not my life.
KH, get your image issues in check pronto! Everyone is different, and you will get yourself to a weight you feel comfy with when the time comes. Right now you are growing a human.

I'm doing bloodwork today and then testifying in court for a car accident that I witnessed a few months ago. I won't be able to watch the Jay's game either bexincanada.
Also, the person next to me has both strong body odour and gas and it's making me feel gross.
Randoms! I can do randoms. (Can't do much of anything else these days)
I keep trying to read and research parenting and discipline techniques in order to NOT lose my mind with our 2 year old. It's depressing, because I feel like we are already actively doing just about everything I find. With very little success. My big thought on the topic today? Perhaps I should make MYSELF a sticker chart to track keeping calm, and avoiding yelling? Who knows. Can't hurt, right?

DW has started tracking her BBT this cycle, and it's just one more thing for me to obsess over and fool myself into thinking she's pregnant, when she probably isn't. It sucks. I know I am setting myself up for a big let down.
I have been waking up with a headache, but once I'm up and moving around its gone.
Took Ellis to campus with me today to the university where I was doing my PhD and will again some day. It's about 45 min from our apartment (much farther in traffic) and I was worried about it being a nightmare because she has had a rough couple of days but she just slept in the ring sling except for when I woke her to feed her. Currently feeding her before our trip home. Am not looking forward to the traffic.
****loss and living child discussed***** We're queer. I'm 34, have severe stage 4 endo, and both fallopian tubes are gone. My love ("Manada" 33) was diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve. We did Partner IVF (my eggs, her uterus). We lost our twins Tav.in and Ca.sey at 21 weeks gestation.
My day has been amazingly exciting so far. I had to go to a house to check on finished repairs for a buyer, got there and realized I needed a drill to check one of them and the sellers are out already so there wasn't one to borrow. Thank goodness we only live 5 minutes away so I ran back home and got mine. I guess I need to ask for a little portable drill for Christmas to keep in my car.
Then I went to my first WW meeting, I'm down 1lb from last week. I'll take it.
Got my flu shot. My arm hurts bc I'm a baby.
Finally, I went to HomeGoods and found this simple human trash can I've been wanting for literally years. It's was only $129!!!!! Totally worth it.

I got C to pee on the potty once. It was a very small trickle. Then she got up and peed on the floor and the couch, and it wasn't a trickle. I picked her up mid pee and tried putting her on the potty and she wouldn't let me do it. So, I'm thinking she may not be ready yet. That, or I need to just let her pee and not try to put her on the potty. She will sit on it sometimes when we talk about it. I think we are going to wait at least another month or two and try again.
It's Friday and my yoga class is starting back up again today! I have the entire afternoon (well 2-4) planned for just ME to workout. Run on the canal after work and then head to yoga, just like the old days!
(I'm sure this sounds ridiculously selfish but I am feeling very much in need of ME time right now).

I miss my wife. I mailed 3 letters today, I have 3 more to go and 1 of those is from the dogs. I started writing another one today. Good thing I bought 2 books of stamps. I'm going to end up using all of them before the end of next week!
I have nothing to do at work. I keep trying to look busy and trying to be busy. If I work on the next project bidding then I'll have nothing to do at all for the following week. I need a hobby I can do at work.
Randoms! I can do randoms. (Can't do much of anything else these days)

jgy, I literally laughed out loud. I want one too (sticker chart that is).
My wife just landed at SFO and I am sooooooo glad to have her home. Not sure I'd survive another bedtime routine solo. If someone fed me, bathed me, rubbed lotion on my tummy, got me dressed in PJ's then topped it off with a book (and for the 1 year old a bottle of milk) you better believe I would be asleep before my head hit the pillow. Le sigh!!!
