Counting down until M goes to bed. Then I'm dyeing my hair, taking a super long shower, and then painting my nails while watching Christmas movies. Can't wait.

So I’ve been going to the chiropractor for 2 weeks, 3times a week and I’m amazed at how the range of motion has improved on my neck. I didn’t realize how bad it had gotten until that pain disappeared.
Unfortunately, the last 3 days I’ve woken up with a headache. Today while driving (and this might be unrelated to the visits) I suddenly felt extremely dizzy and my vision became fuzzy. I could see ok if I shut one eye and pulled over as soon as I could (I was on a state highway). I honestly thought I was going to pass out. I was fine after a few minutes. I’m hoping it’s just a combo of my migraine prevention because it’s also used to lower BP (although this has never happened before) or the fact it had been a few hours since I ate (but that’s never happened either)

That's scary fierymama! I'm so glad that the car and the car seats are the worst of the damage. So sorry about the hassle of it all.

Thanks ladies! The party ended up going great and we really surprised C. The last of our guests left at 830 though so I was exhausted. I hate kicking people out, but may have to start going places that we can't just hang out forever. We also had his BFF sleep over which went well too. Low key day today - I hope.

Ugh, RunsforWineandCarbs, sorry for the pink eye. Everyone or just you or the kids? Somehow last year when E got it, DH got it but I didn't. I was very surprised, usually E and I share germs more quickly than DH does. Just me. Doc thinks it's part of my sinus infection.

Good lord. I just filled out all the paperwork for s1 appointment. It took over 2 hours. In case you are wondering you’ll get the same questions asked about 600 times

Things that are annoying.
1. I don’t know if and when my bil is coming. Or if he’ll need to stay here if he does come. I asked H to find this out weeks ago.
2. I have no idea if and when we are going to Celebrate Christmas with my inlaws. I asked H to find out what worked for them. He took this to mean to tell them we’ll come sometime after Christmas but no idea when.
This is annoying right? I mean sure I can figure all this out. I just need to ask. But why must it ALWAYS be me? It’s the same with getting the presents for his family.

jedi, I used to get crashing BP all the time with my first pregnancy with very similar symptoms. Dizzy, blurry vision, pounding, tight chest and feeling like I would pass out. Think I actually fainted once? I've been getting again with this one. It sucks. Hopefully it doesn't happen again while you're driving! I took myself on a solo date to see Star Wars today. PORG. I NEED A PORG. STAT. That is all.

Hi. Not a lot going on here. We finished most of our Christmas shopping yesterday. We’re still waiting to get some of our money back from the bank after the fraud issue.
Today, the girls went to my ILs. They took them to a Christmas tree farm and then brought them home. When they got here, they had E FF in her car seat. My MIL has asked 5+ times in the past year when she’ll “finally” get to face forward. I’ve told her when she reaches the limits for RF in her seat (40in/40lbs). I’ve explained why I want to keep her RF until then. And still, she took it upon herself to flip the seat in her car to FF. I am seriously annoyed.

Hey ladies! We had a pretty calm day here. We went to Target and K had fallen asleep and C didn't want to go because "shopping is boring" so H went in to get a gift for the neighbors. Then we went to Red Robin (C's choice) for lunch, came home and vegged out. I kept thinking I could go grocery shopping on my lunch tomorrow and then remembered that my vehicle is at the dealership for inspection. Oops. Anyways, now I officially have a 6 year old!

The holiday gathering for H's grad students went fairly well today. I feel like I need a break to recover from my weekend though. I really wish tomorrow wasn't Monday!

jedi, either call yourself (yea I know that bites) or say something snarky to your h along the lines - i'm making plans for the week of christmas, let me knwo when we are seeing your family or we might not have time in the schedule to do so. And I'd whatever with BIL - if he shows up and the house is a mess, well that's what he gets for not letting you know ahead of time. Isn't this the same BIL who comes over then leaves for HOURS and doesn't tell you when he's returning?

amberlie, that's a hard no to me. And a simple, I guess you won't be driving with my kids in your car anymore to MIL. I don't get how people don't follow the parents wishes. My parents know that if they did anything like that, we'd not let them be with the kids. Ugh, I'm annoyed for you.

I did ask H last night and he said he sent his brother a text last and his brother didn’t respond. And he also ask his parents if they knew if he was coming (this was the day he talked to them and says we’d come after Christmas but didn’t get specific dates) and they said he was coming but they didn’t know when.

And when he was here in July (bil) his parents couldn’t make it up (1 hr 45 min drive) to see him. I can’t remember why but i do remember it wasn’t a good reason. Especially since he lives in Seattle.

And you'd think, living in Seattle, he'd have a ticket to visit by now - and share the details! jedi,
