Thank you everyone. I am grateful for all of you every day. I called my nicer boss even though she's off this week. She said I could head home at 10 as opposed to 1. It's $100 off my check but I guess it's worth it to not risk being stuck here overnight.
amberlie I'm glad you're leaving early, please please be careful on the way. And yes, $100 is worth not sleeping in your car overnight or being stranded or drowning. I wish I could give you a real hug. By the way, your smile is beautiful in every pic I've seen of you.
amberlie hugs to you. You carry yourself with such grace and composure. I was no where as together as you are at your age. Get home safe to your little one and vent here as much as you need. Did you ever see about setting up a therapy appointment?
amberlie, so glad you're going home early. Losing the money sucks, but your safety and your lo are so much more important. And I think you're beautiful. Huge hugs!

I'm watching season 9 of The Voice on demand. Every time I watch this show it makes me want to audition. But I'm terrified. But I want to. But I'm scared. Just my random late night thoughts.
If some of you got a twitter follower request from @schmittsgiggles that is me. Well my brand new, sad, little blog. Also just to confuse people I use a pen name for the blog so it won't match my real name.
Trying to catch up on all I missed today. Hope all the sick babies feel better ASAP.
amberlie teeth issues suck. My wife has bad teeth due to bad genetics and all of her molars had to why pulled w in the last year. She has top partials but we can't afford to get the bottoms until next year when I get money back in our flex spending card. Thankful we have that option. I get it. You look beautiful in your pics, I don't think any of us would have ever guessed!
amberlie I'm so sorry you're having a tough time tonight. I just want to say that from every photo I've seen you look beautiful. You have a fiancé that clearly loves you, and you're out there working to support your baby girl which makes you an amazing mama.
ampaints I am making my appt Tuesday when I get my schedule for the following week. I've had no time since I started back to work, especially with only one car.
You are all so sweet! It may sound ridiculous but you guys are like 90% of my support system. I wish I could invite you all to my wedding. Everyone would probably think I'm psycho having lots of Internet friends there but I'd totally do it anyway.
I just made it home. It took over an hour to get here. So many accidents and I could barely see. But I'm here!

Glad you are home!!!
If we lived close I'd totally come. Mn to tx is far.
hiimjamie I'm sorry. That really does suck. I'm going to lose all of mine probably in the next 5-10 years but I'm hoping I can get a job with enough money for implants in the next few years after I graduate. Teeth issues are the worst. I get sad all the time when I look at pictures of myself when I was younger and I could really smile! People always comment on how I don't give "real smiles" and it hurts bc I so wish I could.
Re: the teeth thing, I feel the same way. My teeth have always been crooked (my parents couldn't afford braces for me) and when I was in college my wisdom teeth starting coming in and I couldn't afford to have them removed. So the force of them coming in actually shattered a bunch of my teeth over time. It's no longer a shocking thing to me to have a piece of a tooth randomly break off. I haven't been to a dentist in almost 20 years because I'm so ashamed of the state of them. I hate smiling. I know that if I were to get them fixed, it would probably have to be dentures, and that scares me. When I was visiting my parents after Liam was born, my entire right side of my face blew up in pain & swelling. I still refused to see a dentist. It was excruciating, and I couldn't eat. I ended up sobbing the entire way home. I'm surprised my jaw hasn't been infected yet. Anyway, I know how you feel.

amberlie in all the photos you posted I never even noticed your teeth weren't showing. I just saw a beautiful girl with a beautiful daughter. You are still smiling in a lot of your photos and I never even noticed there were no teeth
girlonabike I am so sorry. I definitely understand that. I've considered having many of mine pulled but I can't bear the thought of dentures since I don't know how anyone can afford a full set of implants. Tooth pain is seriously the worst pain I've ever felt in my life. My molars got the worst when my wisdom teeth came in. They all came in sideways (I had 5 for some reason) and broke my back molars since they were already so weak. That's why I lost the 2 on my left side. One had to be pulled and the other basically fell out in December of last year. I dread the dentist. I have to take anxiety medication and nitrous just to sit there. Mostly bc of anxiety more so than pain. People comment on my teeth while I work sometimes which makes me dread it even more. They tell me I have something on them or ask if I have braces bc there are marks where the front ones were broken. Every time I want to go cry in my car. The cost of dental work in this country is absolutely ridiculous. And I also know the feeling of random teeth breaking off a bit. I freak out when I think it's happened. And I have nightmares regularly about all of my teeth falling out. I'm sorry you're dealing with the same thing
amberlie you are absolutely gorgeous! The picture of you and LO laying together is one of the most perfect picture I've ever seen. Hang in there. Glad you made it home safe!
Aw amberlie I'm sorry your night was so rough!! I'm really glad you made it home safe though. It can be really hard when there's a part of yourself you're so self conscious about. For me it's my tummy and always has been. Ever time I look in a mirror it's all I can see. I've learned that no one else really sees it like i do. And as an outsider, I can say I've always thought you are beautiful! Keep your chin up, we are definitely here for you.
For me it's my right side eyelid. Most Koreans only have one eyelid fold and have surgery to get a double fold, like most caucasians have. I naturally have a double, but several years back, my right side became a triple. It makes my eye look a lot smaller and my lid looks swollen all the time. I'd have to have surgery to fix it but it's no guarantee it'll stay that way. I've learned no one else notices it but it bugs me to no end. I wear special eyelid tape to fix it most of the time. Being self conscious about your appearance is the worst.

Mine is my teeth. I have the biggest gaps, even after braces. I really want to get veneers put on. It's way expensive though.
Re: costco ...they're building one 5 miles from me! No more 20 mile drive!
We're getting an Ikea soon. Lord, have mercy.
A Sam's Club is being built 10 minutes away from us (the cheapest of the big warehouse stores). We got the free membership they offered for new mom's. Very excited.
