Oh. And I got my credit report last week as we were trying to apply for apartments. Someone opened a credit card in my name when I was 15 somehow. There's a $12k balance. So I filed a dispute. Also, an old apt claims I owe them $700. They're owned by new people now and have no record as to why I owe them. My ex-boyfriend has proof that we paid but won't send it to me bc he's pissed that I'm engaged and have a baby. I hope he enjoys his bitterness.

I just trapped a wasp under a bowl. It was in the middle of my living room. Wtf. I don't know how our when it got in because the house had been closed up for days.
Oh also I'm in camp hate the dentist. The last time I went I was in college. I really should go, I just hate being lectured every time I go. It makes me feel like a little kid and why should I pay to feel like shit?
If your dentist makes you feel like shit, definitely find a new dentist! I've dropped 2 dentists after one visit in the past.
It's been every dentist that I've ever been to. Admittedly I haven't even looked for a dentist in years. I need to find one who does the sedation because MH is terrified of the dentist.

Aw amberlie. Deep breath. You will get through all of this. Creepy hugs. It totally sucks to feel like the world is raining on your parade. Just take it one task at a time.

Man it sucks trying to get out of the house on time. I wanted to drop Emma off at daycare by 9-- got there at 915. So not terrible. I thought she would have a melt down about me leaving. She wasn't thrilled when we got there. But as soon as she was in her class, she wanted me to stay for all of two seconds, then was like bye mama. Now Alexis and I are out running errands. I went to the Chiro and then to the mall to return stuff. I have an appointment at 1230 with a personal shopper at Nordstroms. I'm excited. I need an outfit for Alexis' baby naming in a couple weeks. I also asked if she would help with an outfit for tonight. I've never done this before. It's a free service and I figured at the very least it would give me some ideas for outfits. I feel like I have nice clothes in my closet but have no idea how to piece together outfits. I end up in jeans and a tshirt. I need some direction.
Does anyone know if you can take a baby on a plane without a birth certificate? We might need to fly to California in the near future and we don't have our LOs birth certificate yet.
It was J's first day at daycare today. He was happy as a clam as we left. And was the most adorable one there (obviously). So, how many times is too many to call and check on him? 4, 5, 10?
I've never called day care to check on my baby. FFTC?
I am a ball of anxiety. School + work + baby is impossible. I think I might be failing history... must not do that. I had my midterm written in my planner for next Monday. But surprise, it was yesterday!
My job makes me dread my life daily. My anxiety is awful when I know I'll have to talk to strangers all night. Days off are really not off when I'm so behind on homework/studying/cleaning. Plus we're trying to move.
I need to win the lottery (even though I've never played) or have one of you SAHMs come and watch E for me since I would trust you guys far more than daycare options in our area.
My anxiety and depression get worse daily. I know it's because of stress. I felt relatively good throughout pregnancy but it's not that way now.
Must survive until 12/18... somehow.
Hang in there! I'm always impressed with everything you balance. Is there anybody you trust who can help you out on the days you aren't working at your job? Hugs to you!
My childhood dentist wouldn't use anesthetic for cavities sometimes. It was horrible. That, coupled with a frenectomy, two sets of braces, 8 baby teeth pulled, 4 impacted wisdom teeth and headgear has made me hate all things related to teeth and the dentist. I went last year and had a few cavities fixed that my old dentist screwed up. Yay. I really should go.
amberlie thinking of you! Can you take next semester off to give yourself a break or do you have to continue? Sounds like you are super burnt out (understandably so!). I'm so impressed you can work, go to school and have a newborn. I consider my daily shower an achievement...
Also, I've flown a bunch with DS1 and the only time we have ever had to show ID was for international flights where we needed a passport. Domestic flights have never asked us. Bring something to be safe but don't sweat it since you likely won't be asked.

This. I believe southwest is the only airline that requires id. I finally got dds birth certificate(she is 4. fffc?) anyway she has flown at least 6-7 times round trip and we never had issues and we brought nothing

I actually just had a dentist appointment this morning. 3 cavities. I actually skipped my past appt. I had a cavity fixed a little over a year ago and had pain after it was fixed(didn't even know I had a cavity) I went back and they said it was fine, but I couldn't even eat on that side. Took 8-9 months before it stopped hurting. I actually like the dentist.
I do however hate the eye doctor. Had an appt yesterday after years of not going. I was the 9 year old who had to wear a patch and had bifocals. And no not the hidden ones, the big old obvious bifocals....fortunately I haven't had to wear glasses or contacts since I was a teen. He did recommend prism glasses(I have some double vision with my lazy eye and this is supposed to help with strain). He said I wouldn't need to get it but will help with eye strain
I downloaded an app called Migraine Buddy to try and figure out what's causing my migraines and it's kind of funny, I have had a migraine every Tuesday for the past month. LOL I guess Mondays really are that crappy.
Downloading now...my good migraine pills have aspirin and caffeine in them, so no go while pumping.

Had a ridiculous proud mommy moment today in the car. If you've seen the video on FB, O loves his musical tiger on his toy bar for the carseat. Today he was batting around the zebra rattle more than usual and managed to hit the nose of the tiger to start the music all by himself. I whipped my head around with the biggest grin and H started laughing. He said it looked like I won the lottery.

Also downloading. 3 in 3 weeks. Nope. Not with 3 kids. Also, jealous any medication works. I usually get them so infrequently I'm not prescribed anything, but I think it may be time, because OTC crap sucks.

Well the personal shopper was a bust and I ended up with the dress I found online. Oh well. She did find me a nice pair of black pants but not that I could wear for either event. Half the stuff wasn't in the budget or even close too-- please don't bring me a $400 dress when I said I wanted to stay under $200 for everything. On a side note my brother had their baby today. Sofia Elyse 6lb 2oz 19.5 inches. Scheduled csection at 38 and change. No one listens to me about keeping the baby baking as long as possible (no complications with the mom-- just done being pregnant-- not really a reason in my book)

All this dentist talk suddenly made me really anxious. I was suppose to have an appointment the week before Ethan was born but my blood pressure was up and his movements were down and I went in for a baby check up instead. He was born a week later. My OB had told me that my recognizing the lack of movement probably contributed to Ethan's survival.
Ok, that's probably a bit extreme. But only a little.
No offense to you cupcakecutiern, but these fucking people being "done" just piss me off. It's not like your lungs (the last major part to really mature) might benefit from being able to keep growing.

End rant. Sorry not sorry lol.
I feel the same way. This is the sil who wanted the csection on Halloween so she could have an October birthday bc they have too many birthdays in November. Rant away. I totally agree with you.
