My productivity has been pretty low this week and it's supposed to be rainy and gross here today, so I doubt that's going to help me much. I just don't ever feel like working when it's gross out. I also don't feel like working when it's nice out though either. Hmmmm... Maybe it's not the weather... Anyway, hope you all have a good day!
It is not a good day around here. My hedgehog's health has been deterorating this past week and my H had to take her to the vet ER this morning. I feel very lost right now and keep thinking if there was something different we could have done to not reach this point.
Meanwhile DS is really beginning to test boundaries and is getting frustrated when we tell him no or redirect him. I know that he needs boundaries to be set but it's so frustrating on my end too constantly having to redirect him.

Leo has an ugly diaper rash. I keep googling yeast infection and so far it doesn't look like that's it.
My CW is making my work day that much harder. She's semi my Mgr and keeps giving me side projects and saying things like "oh but you just have to do this & that and it'll be done". Yes, sounds so simple. I hate to push back but she's making it sound like it's easy when everything takes time. And I got other crap going on. She literally told me since I was using excel then it'd be fine to run a query in the background. Ummm, thanks for telling me how to multi task. \end rant

I don't know what you've tried for the rash yet but one of my doctors swears by Calmoseptine and since we've switched to that DS has been having fewer issues with diaper rash.

Day 2 of home alone with DS. We met a friend at the indoor playplace and now we are home and DS is napping. I am enjoying a cup of herbal tea. Being sick sucks. My throat hurts so bad and I keep getting coughing fits. I made very strong coffee this morning. We are supposed to get severe storms this afternoon so I hope it's not too bad.
Soooooo. Much. School work. LO took a shit nap and is SO CRANKY. My youngest son has his bone marrow biopsy tomorrow and I start work Monday. Too much shit and too little me!!! I need to also clean the house and go to the store, but motivation is lacking.

Hope you feel better soon! No fun to be home alone with baby but on top of it to be sick, no bueno. FX the storms aren't too scary!

kcrus, thanks for the chuckle today, I needed it. Sorry you're still facing such challenging days. And GL tomorrow with your sons' testing! Hope it isn't too painful for him.
laceysbryan I don't ever feel like working either! Once I'm there it's fine, but every morning I wish I could stay home. @alexipodes Sorry about your hedgehog, hopefully she recovers quickly! littlelion Sorry you have to work with someone like that! I hope Leo's rash clears up soon. ourcrazynavylife I totally feel like I'm living in ground hog day during the week. BabyStandish Hope you're feeling better soon! We've all been sick for a while and it sucks. kcrus That is way too much to handle! I hope the biopsy goes well and LO decided to cooperate with you.
Just dropped $525 on our brakes Important, but not what I wanted to do after work or with my money. At least DH and I got to have a drink and hang out at a nearby restaurant while we waited and MIL picked F up from daycare. Being lazy tonight and dreading parent-teacher night tomorrow. We also noticed a weird bump on F's finger yesterday so I'm taking her to the doctor tomorrow to check it out.
kcrus thinking of you and your son! BabyStandish feel better! littlelion sorry about Leo's rash. My Leo still has a yeast infection from almost a month ago! @alexipodes I'm sorry about your hedgehog pets are family members! ourcrazynavylife grocery shopping is the worst. Those bras are adorable! I love the white one, it looks comfy! Where are they from? megpie5 ugh that stinks about having to spend that! I just had day one of parent teacher conferences. The worst.
I had parent teacher conferences today. One mom opens with "have you ever had mastitis?" Which is better than the time a mom spent her conference time telling me about her vaginal reconstruction. Um, TMI. ?
Leo is still off. He had a good day eating yesterday and no more vomit or diarrhea, but drank no milk at all. I figured his belly was still hurting and he knew the milk wouldn't make him feel good. Today, he literally ate close to nothing. I couldn't even get him to eat a munchkin donut! He just drank 6 ounces of WCM so I feel a teeny bit better and he's had water/wet diapers. He's just not himself since his puke/poopapalooza. I think he's getting more molars too?

My FIL in Mexico is not doing well. This past week his appetite and health has deteriorated so much that his wife has to bathe him and he is sleeping most of the day. I cry seeing how much this hurts my husband. He is so close to being able to return to mexico and now he's afraid his dad will die before he gets to see him. His appt is April 20th and his dads next drs visit is on the 15th. I am so mad that my FIL hasn't received proper medical help. I really pray he can still get help in time.
littlelion I will keep him and your family in my thoughts. People are amazing- I can't tell you the number times I've seen VERY sick people hold on until they can see their loved ones. I hope that is the case for your FIL.

laceysbryan I feel the same way, but the weather definitely doesn't help! (No matter what actually, if it's crappy weather I want to lay around under covers; nice weather I want to get outside!!) @alexipodes hope your hedgehog recovers-try not to blame yourself. Sounds like you've done all you can! Also I'm right there with you in this testing phase. Our current test is can I get what I want with incredibly high pitched, ear piercing, incessant screaming?? Ugh littlelion hope Leo's diaper rash gets better quick. We have good luck with aquaphor on a regular (I guess preventative) basis and then triple paste usually clears up anything he gets pretty quickly. Although, we did need a prescription from the pedi for yeast once. Sorry about your cw, I have a few who are driving me crazy! ourcrazynavylife cute bras, I'm going to try out that calculator. I'm sure I'm in the wrong size! BabyStandish that really sucks you're sick while YH is gone. Hope your feeling much better by tomorrow and the storms aren't too bad. kcrus thoughts and prayers going to you and your ds for tomorrow. GL getting everything done! @megpie ugh I hate cars, I always have the worst luck with them! GL with your conferences! sgio7485 sorry you had a bad conference, and the Leo is still sick. Poor little guy.

reginaphalange3 I was super nervous about it (but aerie had a good return policy & highly recommended by the cd board). I'm blown away by how different they feel and they fit so well compared to what I've been wearing.

littlelion so sorry to hear about your FIL. That is so hard, my BIL had a similar situation. I can't imagine living so far from family. Hope YH gets to see him!
