Hidey ho friends. Today I hope to prep the dough for 11 dozen cookies. I need 10 dozen for this weekend and 1 for tonight.
Last night I started my packing list for our trip to Texas. That was a dumb idea because I went to bed thinking about it all night. Note to self starts big lists in the morning.

Well DD is home sick with DH today. I came into work because I only have 5 days left here and a bunch of stuff to transition but I have no clue what we will end up doing if DD is still not good to go back to daycare tomorrow. Seems to be some kind of stomach bug. Yesterday DH got a call from daycare that she had such a big poopsplosion they had to give her a bath in the sink and the teacher had to change her clothes after she was done cleaning DD up. Then she threw up her dinner last night so clearly something is off, although she seems completely happy and fine otherwise.
DS has another cough. He was really fussy last night, but he also only had 1 nap at daycare. His temp was 100.3 too. This morning he was still coughing, but not too bad yet. It's hard to know when to leave him home.
Good morning! aggiebug what kind of cookies are you making? A variety or all one kind? My SIL and I are doing our annual cookie baking Sunday, and I need to make a plan.
DH has been gone to NYC for the last 2 nights, and he gets home tonight. I love having him home, but man has it been nice to sleep alone and not get woken up at 4 or 5 am (he wakes up early for work). Sometimes I miss having alone time. Between DH, DD, and our au pair, it is a true rarity.
dmorgendorffer hopefully LO's stomach bug passes quickly cougarette hope LO feels better soon agm04 totally know what you mean by alone time being a rarity. Sometimes I find myself daydreaming about the last apartment I had before DH & I got married. pitdigger glad the decision is made! Yay!
I'm tweaking my lactation cookie recipe so I can send the dry ingredients to my friend in pre-mixed batches. I think her mom is headed up to visit her next week so I can pass along some glass jars of cookie mix to her. I need to do a test batch to make sure they come out correctly. Oh darn
It's Wednesday, and... there's not a lot happening here.
Ordered a spin bike for myself as a quasi-Christmas present. It came in Monday and I used it for the first time last night after putting the baby to bed. Only lasted 20 minutes; I am so out of shape. I'm going to try to increase my time gradually. It made me sad, but I also felt pretty good after because at least it was something!
Hey guys! My week is all thrown off because DH took yesterday and Monday off to insulate the attic so I keep thinking it's Monday. Everything from our attic is piled into our spare room right now so I figured I should use that as an opportunity to purge and organize. So far so good! Other than that, nothing exciting going on today besides laundry. Yippee lol.

Woke up with a raging sinus headache this morning. Luckily today is one of H's days off so he decided to take S Christmas shopping for my present and let me go back to bed. Once they got home S still hadn't napped and only wanted his momma. Needless to say I took that opportunity to get in some nap snuggles and lay back down on the couch. We're going on 1.5hrs of nap snuggles, with no end in sight. It's 2:00 and I've been vertical a total of maybe 2 hrs all day. I consider this day a huge win! (Except for the headache part)
Migraines. So many migraines. I've been having them since the 28th. I just want a day at home where I can sleep, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. And my doctor doesn't have any availability until January 18. I took yet another nap in my car during lunch because that's the only way I can deal right now.

Any tips or suggestions to help me end this?
Caffeine. Sleep. Chiropractic. Less stress (ha..ha..) Pregnancy test?
So I got one of those calls from a weird, random number. Today I answered it, mostly because I want it to stop. It was an automated message about lowering my credit card interest. It said to push "1" to speak to a live operator, so I did. This guy answers, so I ask him to remove my number from whatever list it's on (it's been on the do not call list since 2007, I just checked). He said "Sure, but can you do one thing for me first?" I said "what?" and he said "will you kiss me? will you give me a kiss through the phone?" WTF?!? So I hung up without saying anything because he probably would have enjoyed the "f*ck you" I wanted to give him. Apparently, the FTC doesn't want people to talk to these numbers because it can lead to more robocalling, but I did file a complaint for all the good it will do. Anyway, weird happening for the day.

Well daycare called because DS got a fever of 102.3. Poor thing. And he felt so hot when I got him, and his cheeks were all flushed. He was also coughing a lot. They said he wasn't acting like himself, but he did smile at me and was happy when we got home.
He didn't want to eat much there, but he did nurse when we got home. I stripped him down and gave him some Tylenol. After a little while his temp was down to 100.7, still a fever, but coming down.
We have to keep him home tomorrow, so I brought my laptop home. It's my company's Christmas party, so it'll be a casual day so it'll be okay of I'm off and on a bit. I hate to miss the party, but duty calls.
Anyway, he's napping now so I hope he starts feeling better this evening.
kaydee0402 ugh, I am so sorry! Do you have a history of migraines? I ask because maybe your dr can call in a prescription for now before seeing you in a freaking month!
Other than that, I'll alternate between Tylenol and 3 advil (nothing worse than a rebound headache), caffeine, ice pack on my forehead and neck

I can't drink caffeine (I react weirdly, so everything is decaf for me). I probably do need more sleep. I should try the chiropractor. Less stress, good one! Lol. Took a pregnancy test Saturday and got a BFN and then AF showed up today.
I'm going to urgent care tonight to see what they say. Since I had a lovely brain tumor related to my prolactin imbalance that cause my infertility, it could be linked to that, but FX it isn't.

I do have a history of them. They went away when we got my prolactin imbalance under control, but who knows. I THINK this might be sinus related. And this is a new doctor (I ditched the one I had because he was awful), so no prescriptions on file. I'm just going to try Urgent Care and see how that goes.

Thanks!
The last time my sinuses were acting up I thought I had a migraine too. Flonase really helped and doesn't affect your milk supply.
Santa experience wasn't too bad. DD1 actually conversed with him this time. DD2 wasn't having it. She started crying everything she got within a foot of him and look at him. My mom held her and stood next to the big guy and my dad and DD1 stood on the other side. Poor Santa; no one ever wants to sit on his lap. That's a tough job to have!
