I'm just up an hour and a half before I need to. I'm catching up on news hoping to fall back to sleep

I love baby day! I'm up with C. I think we have grocery store, play place and boot camp on our agenda for the day.

Morning! Charlie slept till 645, so I was able to wrap another handful of presents while watching gossip girl on Netflix. It felt so civilized.

Morning from snow covered Holland! There is snow everywhere, which in Holland means, offices close early, trains are on snow schedule, schools close early or haven’t even opened. Ds’ school was open, so we walked/cycled to school. I played in the snow with dd afterwards, she loved the snow! I forgot her mittens (wasn’t planning on playing in the snow) but she wasn’t deterred by it one bit. Dh got home early since his school is closed too, so we might set up the tree this afternoon.

What do you think so far? I'm very early into it -- maybe five episodes -- but I want there to be more action and less drama around nothing. Im offer drama, but I need some kind of event to hook it onto. I am enjoying the mid to thousands fashion choices. It was a special time in life. |

GM! B officially starts in the 4s class at school today. I had a brief nanosecond of mini feels thinking about how my baby is growing so much. Other than that, just a regular day.

I haven't watched in a few weeks though, need to pick it back up. So much drama! I do feel like it gets better as you go on. |

Glad to see it gets a little better. I wasn't really planning on stopping it. It's perfect background show for me. ETA: to tag @wine and melaniesue |

Morning!
Both kids were up obnoxiously early so I’m hoping naps will be in my future.
Just caught B trying to open the new ‘Firefly’ (light-up) toothbrushes DH bought him last night (since he has to start using a new one thanks to strep). I heard him open and close the barn door to the laundry room and called out to him, but he was just standing there innocently when I opened the door (giveaway, right?) I reminded him about Elfie and he fessed up and opened the cabinet to reveal the toothbrush package and his scissors, which were stuck on the packaging. Stinker.

Morning! Getting up early was a struggle this morning. I decided that today I’m going to start bbm because #fat. Other than that we will probably just hang around the house.

Morning! I’m so excited for baby day, but it also is reminding me I need to actually do something (anything?) to get ready for this baby. Target has $20 off every hundred that you spend today online so I may try to stock up on some things.
I’m also feeling slightly overwhelmed. I have to wrap everyone’s presents that need to be shipped, start wrapping some of ours, send out our Christmas cards, and start doing my holiday baking because I need to start handing stuff out by Wednesday this week. For holiday baking in doing six different cookies, toffee, and cinnamon sugar almonds, so it’s going to be a big job.
Also, if anyone wants a Christmas card pm me!!!

I started BBM 7 day surge. I have to drink my coffee black. I don't know why this is so hard. I usually drink it black when I am out, maybe it is just the keurig flavor. I also have to drink 1/2 my weight in water oz. So 100oz of water for me today. oh my!

RMD time of year. Everyone panicking because they haven't done it yet and want me to make it happen yesterday. Your lack of planning is not an emergency on my side.

I did not know you're supposed to change out your tooth brush when you have strep... that makes sense though. I've never done it! |

Or you can let it sit in Listerine for a ‘clean’ overnight, that works in a pinch. |

Gossip Girl is amazing. I may have to rewatch it. Speaking of shows, I’m hooked on Jane the Virgin, so hilarious.

Rant ahead. Proceed at your own risk.
My mother is pissing me off. My dad started radiation 2 weeks ago. When I was talking to her about it before he started, I told her how my boss's wife was tired all the time after her treatments and she'd fall asleep on the way home. She said she'd be going with my dad to the appointments and would keep an eye on him on the way home. That way she could make him pull over if he began to fall asleep. Ummm, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE HIM DRIVE TO AND FROM RADIATION?!?!
Then, his doctors decided he needed to add in some chemotherapy treatments in addition to the radiation. They said the first chemo appt would be about 3 hours and then the rest should only be 2. They gave him benadryl before starting and about 45 min in, he started coughing. The nurse checked his vitals and he said he just had a tickle in his throat. When the dr came in a bit later, she didn't feel comfortable continuing. So they stopped the chemo, gave him steroids and switched him to saline for about an hour. She didn't want to risk his throat closing up.
So my mother is telling me this story and is bitching because of "your father's constant cough" we had to drive home in the dark and were there for 5.5 hours. Sure mom. It's his fault. Just let his throat close up so he can stop breathing just so you don't have to drive home in the dark and mess up your routine.
I feel terrible for my dad that he has to put up with her.
TL;DR My mom is a bitch.
