Kids all have fevers, coughs, snotty, whiny... my head hurts, I have a sinus headache. I'm tired. I want coffee, but I don't want to make it. I want a nap already.
When we went on the health insurance marketplace I thought we picked a plan that my PCP took... apparently we didn't. I don't want to doctor shop again, ffs. I'm not sure what happened there, but it sucks.

My depression has been in high gear all weekend. Now today I can add anxiety. All I want to do is sleep but kids don't allow for that. I'm an emotional eater and have eaten all the food today.

DS has a small rash on his belly since Saturday. No fever, no out of the ordinary fussiness. I have been giving him meds for reflux (that he may or may not need) for the past 5 days. Other then that nothing is out of the ordinary. I was planning on calling this morning but instead I'm just going to stop giving the meds and see if it clears up. It's really only on his belly, chest, neck and it so faint if I look fast I can't even see anything. He's been eating great and sleeping as usual. I know I should prob just call the ped and take him in but instead I decided to play wait and see and left him and DD with my mom so I can get a pedicure. Mom of the year. I should prob just call. I just don't feel like driving all the way there for them to tell me to stop the meds which I already plan on doing. Ugh maybe I'll just call and they can tell me that over the phone.
Both kids are sick and getting nebs. DH worked all night. No sleep for me.
I want to buy a tula but I really shouldnt spend the $.
I am selling stuff at a consignment sale this week. I have yet to tag all the clothes and I need to drop them off tomorrow. Gonna be up late doing that.

I have to write an akward email to my boss and her boss today. I don't want to but I also need to stand up for myself. This is just the tiny tip of an iceberg of bullshit.
I wish I was more like DH who didn't can about making someone mad. I just need to grow a pair and press send.
Sorry for all the sick kiddos. I'm so ready for warmer weather and hopefully less sickness. Took DS to his gym class this am which went well but now I'm stuck on the couch nursing DD and he is tired and whining. My coffee spilled this am and I am really craving a sugary caramel latte instead. Also my MIL is coming to visit next Monday and staying with us and hasn't told DH for how long. I'm dreading it.

I just put in my first pampered chef order so I should be happy. More money is awesome but all I want to do is buy all the fun things and not pay bills waaa
Also for some reason my anxiety is in full swing today. It was hard to have my parents leave yesterday. I hate being so far away. I know I am a broken record

I hate being do far away from home too. I miss my friends, parents, mom's group, everything. I feel really isolated here and don't make friends easily. That combined with my job and I feel like a slave to our house and never leave. I'm lucky if I get a shower during nap time.
@iheartmyshiba BIL's house still isn't done! Thank goodness he's staying somewhere else because that would not fly. But bummer because MIL has to stay with us (because of course she won't get a hotel room). She'll be sleeping in the basement. I'm just annoyed I can't live in soft pants and whip my boobs out to nurse in my living room.

Have you looked for mom's groups where you are now? I know we get new people added to ours regularly that are new to town, or missed the boat when they were all tiny.
Either way, will you have a chance to make new friends with #2?
I'm in the anxiety-ridden boat today, too. Seriously questioning my job and if it's the right fit anymore. walterjenne, I did the stand up for myself thing last week, and was basically told I need to apologize. By my husband, who at first said the CEO (reference TTC Thread for update) talked to him about me. Not. Fucking. Cool.
I was all set to go into this week with a fresh outlook, and DH requested I join him in his office to discuss it again. The more I think about it, the more I am not cool with having my HUSBAND being told he needs to have a chat with his little wifey. Reeks of sexism. Not to mention I had talked to my Operations Manager about the situation, and talked to the CEO at the end of the day Friday, so I thought we were all good. DH has a tendency to stick his nose where he shouldn't - oh, and straight up lie to me because it WASN'T the CEO who talked to him, it was someone else. Even better. I told him if someone approaches him about discussing me, he needs to tell them to extend professional courtesy and take it to me directly.
This morning I decided I am going to pay someone to do the flooring in dd's new room (its currently carpet and we want to install laminate/fakewood. Dh could do it, but since he still hasn't finished his office that he has been working on since January, 2015 I'm throwing in the towel.
Dh is going to be annoyed, but I really don't care. I want to get her room finished this century!
Oh, and Friday at the end of the day I saw the Operations Manager interviewing my cousin's ex-girlfriend, who happened to be the person who was with my Dad when my cousin had to leave to get service to call 9-1-1 when he died. That will be a nice daily dig, seeing her. Very sweet lady, harsh situation.

I'm in a mops group, but it hasn't been as welcoming as I had hoped. I also don't make freinds easily and feel akward putting myself out there. I'm not sure if I will stick with this group next year, or keep looking.
Also doesn't help that we are renting right now and looking for a house in a few months in a different town. This isn't a community I want to get involved in too much since we will be moving about 30 minutes north of here probably soon.

rlb I'm sorry your husband is talking to you when it has nothing to do with him. I would tell him not so nicely to butt out. But I don't think I could work with my DH. I would also request he has people direct their concerns directly to you. And not passive aggressively through him.

Maybe we should plan a GTG with isolemnlyswear this summer? You're on the SE side of the state, right?

1. I just finished weekend #3 in a row of solo parenting as DH has been facing major deadlines at work. That's right, basically 21 days without much help since he works until 7ish each night during "normal" periods.
I literally sent him a text yesterday saying "I'm waving a white flag over here!!!" I knew there wasn't anything we could do about it, but man. I'm wiped.
On top of that, this week is the end of the term at work so I have to create, copy, and administer exams on top of proctoring the ACT tomorrow and I'm also up to my eyeballs in essays to grade by next Tuesday. I could/should/would have been working on those over the weekends, but see above. I've been falling into bed as soon as the kids are down.
Silver lining: one of the things he's been working on is finally settling a case that's been open for almost ten years. Thank God.
2. I'm really starting to resent my commute. Backstory: before I was pregnant with DD, we moved and I'm much farther from work than I used to be (10 miles each way then vs 32 now). I've done it two school years now and it's wearing on me. Sigh. Maybe I'm just eager for summer break.

Girl...yes you can!! That will help aide to get her ass out of your house!

Do you sell it?
Yes! I just started. I needed something to do aside from talk about my kid all the time. I really like their stuff just am a horrible salesman lol. We will see how it goes.
I got an update from my lawyer and I should have a new court date scheduled tomorrow. He also recalculated all my back CS and expenses and Finkle is going to shit bricks. Hopefully his lawyer tells him to fucking STFU and do his part, especially since he hasn't paid anything after the court order in September.

He's the biggest asshole I've ever met (virtually met??). I can't believe he hasn't paid you anything. When can they start garnishing wages?
