My cat fell off the couch and latched on to my leg when he tried to catch himself. He left three deep scratches down my leg and its slightly swollen and it hurts so bad. Ugh. Dumb cat.
Without fail, I start dinner, hands covered in raw chicken, some little girl selling candy bars rings the door bell... And the baby starts screaming. Usually he waits until I'm getting ready to eat.
Just woke up in a panic from my nap as I put DD down at 2:30 and haven't heard from her. I ran upstairs and she moved when I opened the door and kind of groaned but stayed asleep. I'm going to wake her up in a little bit or else she will be up all night! And I want to carve pumpkins!
So, my inlaws are finally gone and I have caught up on the random threads from Tuesday through today. Now to catch up on all of the other threads.
A is also dealing with her first cold, though she only had a mild fever one day and we didn't have to give her any medicine. Sorry there are so many sick babies.
motownthrowdown - You really are awesome. I am pretty much constantly in awe of you. I still need to catch up on your separate thread, but I saw the updates in the random threads.
Healthy thoughts to all of the little ones who are under the weather.
I survived kindergarten today. Exhausted. I left school having already met my step goal. Usually I have to workout and march around my house at 9 at night to do that.
I joined the FB group and I am up for new FB friends!
I am staying hunkered down in my house this weekend. Our town has a huge. Halloween block party and it's pure madness. It's mostly the college students who participate but many of them have friends from out of town come in too.

Guys! CVS will flavor medicines for $3!! Our day care provider told us so I called and said I could bring it back to have it flavored. DS1 took it without issue once he realized it didn't taste like shit anymore.

Great. Wind advisory. Figured I better go collect the toys and stuff and put them under the soccer goal....the pool is gone. That's the 2nd pool that's blown away this year.
So I have bruises on my boobs from having to basically milk myself while pumping. It's a struggle to get 4oz total at each pump.. And my boobs never feel empty when I'm done. Before pumping so often, I'd get 4ozeasily and usually more. Ugh
Thinking about going to see my LC this week for a weighed feed.
My boss got me the Lansinoh pump. I'll boil the parts tomorrow and give it a try. Have any of you ladies used that one?
This is going to be long and I apologize in advance. I'm not in a good place mentally or emotionally tonight. I'm not looking for sympathy or even advice necessarily, I just need to write it all out and hope it helps in some way.
I don't know why I'm at work tonight. It's pouring and flooding. Every sign on the side of the highway says "turn around don't drown" or "caution high water on road." But I hate disappointing people so I didn't call out. I'm also exhausted on 3 hours of sleep. There's a possibility that I'll end up stranded 50 miles from home tonight if it floods too badly. I don't even get off until 1am. If I get stuck here, it will be in my car overnight.
I hate my teeth. I broke them in an accident when I was 16, shattering the front 6 & knocking one out completely. I got that one fixed but can't afford the others bc it's "cosmetic" and not covered by insurance. I haven't been able to smile with my mouth open for nearly 7 years. I cried on the way to work thinking about how I won't be able to smile in my wedding pictures. I also have a genetic degenerative issue in my jaw. My dad has lost all but 1 molar at 43 years old. I've already lost 2 of mine and can only chew with the right side of my mouth.
I'm sitting outside the gas station where I'm supposed to be working wishing I could disappear instead. I'd like a gallon of vodka or a cigarette but can't have either. All I want to do is go home and be with my baby. I wish I could tell my boss I need to go home but he wouldn't likely understand and I'd be written up.
I'm impressed. I never get out for less than $200.
I was with my mom and I said "we better get out of here before I spend more money" and some stranger laughed. Lol
I think it's a universal phenomenon that, in Costco , normally sane and frugal people get caught up in the adrenaline rush of bulk purchasing. There's something about it. + another to never spending less than $200 there.
But, I keep going back because I do get some really good deals...
amberlie, I just want to hug you right now. FWIW, your smile is beautiful and genuine in every single picture you post. Please, please stay safe tonight.
amberlie, hugs. And tell your boss due to the impending storm and road conditions you need to go home early. He should get it if the weather is that bad and dangerous. I say work a few hours then cut out of there.
Hugs amberlie. Hope it felt better to write that all down. I agree on leaving work early if you can, it's flooding and you're exhausted and have a tiny baby to get home to so you can't risk being stuck. You made the effort to be there even in the storm, will your boss really not understand if you ask to leave early?
