tinydancer I am so sorry. I had a feeling with my 2 losses that something wasn't right with them too. Take care of yourself. I'm sorry you are going through this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the support. It really helps. I hate that others have had losses, but it's helpful to know that others have gone through it before and have moved forward.

I still have hives. I'm going into the clinic again today. I don't expect them to do anything, but I need to know what to expect and how long I might expect this to last. The pred and antihistamine seem to be keeping it at bay. It's still rather unsightly, but I think I've found a way to manage it. It's another hot day here so I expect we will be outside a lot. Dd3 has gone on the potty at least once a day for a week now?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Http://notjustnovels.wordpress.com

tinydancer - I'm so sorry about your loss. The timing of breaking the news has to make it even harder. Huge hugs to you, lady. dizzycooks - ugh! What an ordeal! I'm glad you have found a way to manage it somewhat, though. Fx for a speedy recovery from here on out so you are ready for your much deserved vacation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last week we thought my H was working this week, then the job he had booked went away, so we thought we had an unexpected vacation week. We got a few things done around the house, went to the coast yesterday - and then last night he booked a new job that starts today, so vacation is over! The dds had a great time playing on the beach, although all that sun and sand made dd2 one pooped baby. She fell asleep on my H's shoulders as we were leaving. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My hip was feeling slightly better this morning when I got up, so I decided to do some much needed laundry. Big mistake. Now I'm in more pain than I was yesterday. And I at the very least have to haul my butt back down to switch it to the dryer, and I really should do a load of M's clothes. She's out of jammies and has like 1 dress left to wear.

Well the puppy now named Cash has parvo. He was hospitalized all day yesterday and last night. Today is the short office day so they discharged him for tonight and I have to take him back tomorrow. What a 180 he has done. He's actually yelping walking around and just wanting to be loved. Poor guy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My hip still hurts. H is going to call and deal with his benefits tomorrow so hopefully I can go to physio soon. And our air quality is for shit right now. So S isn't allowed outside until it clears. And it's possibly what caused me to have pain breathing earlier. I really hope it improves by next week, since we want to go to the fair.

dizzycooks, any updates? How are you doing? This afternoon the DDs are having a friend over who I don't like. Her mom seems really nice, but the girl talks back to adults and encourages my DDs to do dangerous stuff like jumping off playground equipment that that girl may be ready for (she's the same age but about a foot taller than DD1), but my DDs are definitely not. DD1 turns really sassy when she's around, too. And last week she and DD2 apparently said something so mean to DD1 that it made DD1 cry (she was crying when I picked her up from preschool) - DDs 1+2 regularly insult each other and it just makes DD1 mad, so it must have been bad to make her cry. Anyway, I'm glad that we're delaying DD1's start into 1st grade because it means she won't start school with this girl. So really this is their last hurrah playdate, and I suggested it be at our house where I can have my eye on the situation a bit more. Otherwise I'm running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get everything done that needs to be done.

I hope things settle down for you. nellieoleson, that beach picture is priceless. Sorry your vacation got cut short! lollipop, I hope you get some relief for your hip. tinydancer, hugs again. Thinking about you.

I'm thinking I need to get DD1 (6.5) in to see a psychologist. She seems to need help with managing anger and frustration. She is like Jekyl and Hyde. On minute fine, then something tiny pisses her off. Lately, she's gone back to hitting and kicking me, which I thought we were done with. I'm at a loss and sad and scared for her.

crimsonandclover that sounds like a horrible play date. I hope it works out ok today. @skames2015 cash seems like an appropriate name... I am glad he's perking up! copperboom I am sorry you're having a hard time with dd1 lately. My dd1 has been much improved this week. Oh wait, she's been at camp all week...jk, the structure seems to be helping her and her behavior at home has been far better. Any chance school will help in the fall? Hives are here. I was told I could play with the pred dosage to try to prevent morning break outs. I think it just restarted my withdrawal symptoms bc I had so much less than "usual" this morning. I'm waiting for my car to be serviced and then I am going home. I feel like I'm losing my damn mind. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Http://notjustnovels.wordpress.com

copperboom that's hard. My nephew just started counseling and occupational therapy to help him deal with anger. He does fine at school but not at home. I think it's worth looking into. Hugs. I know it can stressful on the family.

Nope. It still hurts, but only when I move the wrong way. I'm going to make him call tomorrow, even if it means I dial for him lol

copperboom I've been considering the same thing for S (almost 6). I don't know if he's angry but he has a hair trigger for tantrums and throws a fit at the drop of a hat.

lollipop I'd dial for him. I'd talk to them until they insist on speaking him. I've found dh basically needs to say into the phone that be gives me permission to answer all questions and then I can resume the conversation. sjames2015 posted this on fb and I had to bring it here. More later baby crying as per usually 😂 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Http://notjustnovels.wordpress.com

That meme is basically my life for the last 5 1/2 years. If it doesn't get done between 7 and 9 it doesn't get done until tomorrow. Last night I spent an hour on the phone with delta trying to update my sky miles account for the third time. I changed my name almost 10 years ago! So much for collecting sky miles.... Anyway, today is dd1s last day of camp. I've missed her, but it's so much simpler going out with just two! I'm buying a bunch of toys from a garage sale this morning (snow shovels, snow ball makers, jump ropes, skip its, new bike helmets) I feel like I really scored since my kids need nothing and these are things we don't have and they will love. I'm saving it all for Christmas. I also need to finish my instructions and get a letter notarized. And has anyone been to old navy recently?? There are some super cute items and I may have been suckered in. We will see if I can get back to buy them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Http://notjustnovels.wordpress.com

dizzycooks, I hope the hives are getting better! And yes, that meme is my life as well. People don't understand why I can't have conversations on the phone until after they are asleep. I just got a huge order from Old Navy delivered. Mostly clothes for DD and some shirts for DS. I agree that they have some cute stuff. The shorts for DD were adorable!! I do most of my clothes shopping online. I do not have the patience to go with children to the stores.

I developed a huge cold sore on my face on Tuesday. That entire side of my face is swollen and sore. And I'm supposed to have oral surgery on Monday. Fabulous timing. The surgeon called in a rx for me and is fine to move forward thank goodness. I did not want to have to reschedule because H starts school in a few weeks and then it would be basically impossible to find the time.

You guys should all make this ASAP. Ridiculously good. I feel like I never need to go out for ice cream again. smittenkitchen.com/2017/06/best-hot-fudge-sauce/But don't be like me and eat a hot fudge sundae every afternoon for a week until it's gone.

lollipop - your insurance situation stresses me out. Like it gives me anxiety every time I read about it. Hasn't he needed to call them for 2 months now? Or more? I couldn't deal. Next time he has a day off can you just hand him the phone and say DO IT NOW? I hope your hip is feeling better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
