Boss is back in a good/sappy mood. He's mumbled "I don't know what I'll do when you leave" about 8 times in the last hour. I feel bad but at the same time I'm internally screaming "77 days left!!!!!!!"

I’m pretty sure I had the worst night of sleep in a long, long time. S woke up at 12:30 so I laid on the floor next to her crib and fell asleep until 4 something. I went back to my bed because I decided I’d let her CIO. She screamed and cried for a long time so I finally went back in there. This time I laid in H’s bed (because at some point she crawled into my bed). I spent the next half hour telling S to be quiet and go to sleep off and on. I finally got so exhausted I think I passed out, because the next thing I remember was her waking me up crying some more. I can’t wait for whatever this issues is to be over. I’m pretty sore from sleeping on the floor for half the night. In other news, MIL will be coming to pick H up in an hour to play at her house. S and I will be running out for the last of the Christmas presents.

Tonight is our client Christmas party. It's a huge event at the stadium and I'm not looking forward to it. Mainly because of what I'll be wearing. Every year I've worn a suit with a fancy top but last year my 2 coworkers in the office said they were the only women in suits and everyone was super fancy, so they were under-dressed. I'm going to freeze my ass off and I'm going to be so uncomfortable in the 2 pairs of spanks I'll be wearing underneath this dress.
There's a 2 drink limit for employees. LOfuckinL. I will not be abiding by that...

One employee got so drunk he walked out the front door and peed on the grass right in front of the building and half the party.. They had to call a Uber duo (one drives you home, the other drives your car home) to get him home. At 4 pm on a Monday..... There were others but that was the worst.

I accidentally turned my alarm off yesterday when I was turning off my snooze so it didn't go off this morning. Mh came in to my room at 7 asking if I was going to work today. shitshitshit. Fastest shower and getting ready ever and I made it to work by 8. I'm pretty impressed with myself. I have the day off tomorrow for Cadence's doctor appointment. It isn't until the afternoon, so she'll go to school and I'll stay home to try and get some things done before picking her up. She has her holiday party Friday, so I need to get the teacher's their presents. I think I'll just do movie buckets. Popcorn, snacks, candy, in a bucket with 1 or 2 dvds. I was hoping our Frankenstein shirts would have arrived by now so we could do a family picture for the Christmas card, but they haven't so I'll just have to make do with other pictures and get the cards made. :/ I also need to figure out what dessert I'm bringing to the office potluck next Tuesday. Something easy. Maybe I'll just make brownies.

Morning! Just trying to settle my stomach so I can start getting ready for work. How's the MS this week? ETA: I see this was covered. Glad it's gotten a little better.

I can control my alcohol intake. I DNW to be wasted in front of mayors, city councils, senators, superintendents, etc. I'd end up on the news for sure.

I read "Christmas crackers" and thought they were a Christmas version of animal crackers. Same.

We usually do bring S into our bed, but after the 5 am wake up yesterday I said no more. I’m sure I’ll give in again, but I’m trying my hardest not to.

X is home sick.
Dude has this nervous habit of twirling/pulling his hair on his left (dominant) side and I noticed his hair is starting to thin there. I've got to call the pedi, it's stressing me out.

Thanks for the reminder for the crackers/poppers guster. Every single year I say I'm going to get crackers or kinder eggs for everyone because it's a fun opener for visiting and every single year I forget. I have time so I'm for sure going to get them this year.

wineallthetime and cagoldi yay for good ASs! trtlcrzy, sorry for the crap night of sleep. lfig, yay for S sleeping! peachsmama, sorry your boss is suffering from PMS (pissed-off male syndrome). mwhip, good luck today with making your decision. vino, you can have him! chrisy01 glad you get a little reprieve the middle of the day but I hope things continue to improve. Christmas crackers sound fun. I saw overpriced ones at a fancy store downtown but couldn't justify the price for the trinkets inside. I didn't know Marshall's-type stores have them.

cagoldi, Maddie has gone through numerous idle habits and it drives me crazy. She passes them onto Cass. She's finally outgrown most of them though. She used to twirl her hair so tight it would be like a knotted dreadlock on one side, then she started sucking on her hair (ew!), then it was biting her nails (all of them--including toenails--ew!). She still bites her nails. Cass has copied a few of her habits and has taken to biting her fingers. Her poor fingers look awful. We try to catch them in the act and bring attention to it and keep them busy with other things (fidget spinners and putty aren't all bad) but it's not 100%. My mom had a kid in her daycare who would pull all of her hair out. She didn't stop until she was 5.
