dreemkin how is your ear today? I can't imagine the pain and having it rupture omg.
My brain still hurts I am guessing it's around for a while. Such is life.
A friend was supposed to come over this morning for a "play date" as much as two one year olds play together, but she cancelled due to a fever. A part of me is relieved. I am just dragging this morning with the headache I am looking forward to a nap when DD naps.
DD had diarrhea on Sunday so she stayed home with DH yesterday. I got home from work at 6 and they were napping on the couch! At 8:30 I finally decided she had to go to bed even though she was ball of energy cruising around and playing. She really didn't end up going to sleep until almost 9:30. Hopefully she naps ok at daycare today.
cloe111479 happy birthday to Q! aggiebug serial migraines are horrific. Hope yours fades soon. dmorgendorffer hope LO is back to her normal routine today badw0lf sorry your BF is oblivious. Hope F's appointment goes well & your cat recovers quickly.
aggiebug I'm still in a lot of pain. The Dr wanted me to go back yesterday to check my eardrum after the fluid started leaking out and he said there was a tiny tear/hole near the bottom. I got prescribed drops to put in once a day. Actual thick pus was draining throughout the night and it still hurts a lot. I am also dizzy. I'm just waiting for the antibiotic to take hold and hopefully it'll feel better. Ibuprofen helps a little but I can't wait for it to begin clearing up. I'm sorry you still have your migraine.
It's Fat Tuesday, somebody bring me a pazcki! I'm Polish so that's the go-to pre-fasting indulgence.
Snow day here. At first it was a delay and then they flat out cancelled. There is no snow on the ground at my house currently. What sucks is we have to make up the day, so they're taking away an in service day we had on the 29th. I reeeeeeallllly wanted to work in my room that day. Oh well. At least I get to hang out with my little dude today!
DS's new favorite exploration method is squeezing things as hard as he can to see if they squish. I did not think this through when we had watermelon for breakfast.
badw0lf, I am so glad he is not blocked but gah its still not fun. dreemkin, I hope it starts feeling better quickly I am sorry you are still in so much pain that is awful. dmorgendorffer, I am sure she will be fine! And heck you don't have to deal with a crabby baby that's a benefit of daycare right? @holachica oh fun! I briefly pondered making Valentines for family, but is it really worth the mess? and the precedence??? ahh that right there is terrifying
lilyelayne and dreemkin I am always sad to miss out on kings cake this time of year. You would be utterly horrified at what I saw being sold as kings cake in the store. IT WAS A COFFEE CAKE WITH SPRINKLES! nooooooooooooooooooooooo
I've actually never had a king cake. It's all pazcki in my neck of the woods but I know what you mean. Some people say donuts with sugar on top are pazckis...aw hell no.
Happy Shrove Tuesday! Or Pancake Day! Or Fat Tuesday! My family is Irish, so we've never called it Fat Tuesday. It's weird how different cultures have different names for it. I'm making a big meal tonight (not pancakes, but burrito bowls since that's what my DH insisted on). I'm excited for DS to get ashes for the first time, though I'm worried he'll try to wiggle away from the person administering them. When our church did the blessings of the throats for the Feast Day of St. Blaise, he tried to take the candles out of the nun's hands. Whoops!
I've never had packzi or King's Cake. No area I've ever lived in has had authentic packzi or King's Cake, and I feel like a knock off would be disappointing.
DS's new favorite exploration method is squeezing things as hard as he can to see if they squish. I did not think this through when we had watermelon for breakfast.
My DS is currently doing this as well, though his favorite thing to squish is my nipple while nursing. I hope this phase ends soon.
For anyone who observes this, what are you giving up/doing for lent? I need some ideas. I was thinking of trying to go to church more (we've been having a hard time getting there this winter). But I was also thinking of giving up peanut butter bc I heart it so much lately. How about you?
Did not eat pancakes for Pancake Tuesday. The only time I've had King's cake it was a knock-off and I was not a fan. Ash Wednesday services are at bedtime downtown so won't be making it.
I try to give up something that makes me a better person. One year it was cursing and it cut down considerably on my cursing (my current work environment has had the opposite effect). I don't know about this year.
DS gave me his conjunctivitis despite excellent hygiene practices on my part. He likes to steal my glasses at night and then stick his drool covered hands on my eyes. This is how you got it in the first place, kid.
The cold he gave me turned into a sinus infection for both of us. When I went to the doctor for my gooey eyes and stabbing pain in my cheekbone, I asked about the fact that DS's eyes were still a bit gunk after 6 days and his congestion, even though the fever broke two days after DS's trip to the doctor (day 7 of fever). Dr said the gunk was now his sinuses draining out his eyes so oral antibiotics for both of us. He's doing much better. I'm still a congested, coughing, sore throat mess, but the sinus pain is starting to subside.
So far H has escaped, although he was complaining that his ear was bothering him so all three of us may be on meds soon.
dreemkin, I'm giving up having my cell phone out while with other people. I've also contemplated giving up sugar, but my birthday falls in the middle of Lent and I want to be able to enjoy cake
And for me to improve on, I want to read a bit of Psalms every night and get better about praying with DS at bedtime. Sometimes we forget to do bedtime prayers with him, but now that he's old enough to somewhat understand the bedtime routine, we need to be better about incorporating prayer.
lilyelayne B loves doing that too. She turned her raspberries into jam at breakfast this morning.
A/S this morning went ok. I won't know for sure until my mw appointment in two weeks but I'm sure if there's an issue they will call me in sooner. The tech *thinks* it's a girl but since LO was sitting upright in my ute with legs closed for the entire thing she couldn't be sure. I did some interesting yoga poses to get all the shots needed with that positioning. Thanks LO!
aggiebug that hurts my heart. kaydee0402 hopefully they'll be quick about administering ashes on C. I'm excited for G to get his first ashes too. dreemkin giving up cursing. Still looking for a good bible study or daily devotional to do. So last minute I know. seamonster sending healthy vibes to you & your family. maryxc1 hope LO feels better by her birthday!
Going to my ILs tonight to celebrate my birthday. DH picked up a king cake for my birthday cake, yay! My actual birthday is tomorrow, but we're eating at my grandma's, and I didn't feel like combining both family celebrations like I typically do.

I don't give up anything any more but I am focusing on more active disciplines. Like a Lenten devotional and/or prayer.
I never knew what king cake was until you ladies talked about it. I was in the grocery store yesterday and I spotted one in the bakery. I almost bought one but, I am trying to stay awake from sweets.
I demanded a doctor's appointment for DS today since he still has his rash. Kinda hard for nurses on the phone to figure out what it is. Doctor said no allergic reaction to vaccine and that he has hand foot mouth. Ugh. Not too happy about that answer. He's not in daycare and really hasn't been exposed to too many kids lately besides one 10 year old.
Has any LO's gone through hand foot mouth? He has no rashes or blisters on his feet, mouth or hands. He just has little red bumps scattered all over his body and high concentrations of red bumps on the front of both thighs and back of his arms. I'm considering going in for another opinion.

I had to google this because I was thinking you meant the foot and mouth/ hoof and mouth disease that they have on plum island -- my sister used to work there.
