I would be so happy to go anywhere for two weeks without my kids and MH. I don’t see that situation ever arising though.

readyornot aren't you HR? Sorry but it's kind of your job to tell her to go take a shower.

Guys, my assistant just told me they (her & her family) haven't bathed since before NYE because their hot water has been frozen & so they...just haven't bathed in a minimum of 4 days now. IDK exactly how long because she just said "since before NYE" I am like over here like 😨😨😨 Do you know where you are at? I am sure there are some here that haven't bathed/showered here for about that long - based on previous posts.
Ok but I'm not sitting in an office with those people smelling their days old BO. I can only worry about myself in this situation, McB!

This has been me for the last 4.5 months. The BFing hunger is even worse for me than pregnant hunger. I didn't think I could possibly eat more in a day, and here I am. For sure. While pregnant I am either nauseated or crammed full of baby squashing my stomach but when BFing I just want to eat all the things!

I love my friends so much but damn 2 weeks is a long trip. I guess if I had my own room it would be ok. But still maybe too long. I could do a 1 week trip with friends and then a 1 week trip for me alone afterwards to decompress.

My friend 40th bday trip which started out as a 2 weeker in either Iceland and somewhere else (b/c you can't do 2 weeks in Iceland) OR a trip to hike manchu piccu has now devolved into some lame 3 day bahamas trip b/c some of my friends are stupid cheap and terribly unadventurous. I tried to get the adventurous people to split off and do the big trip we talked about but there seems to be more appetite for going as a group of 8, even if it's lame-o. Wow, 3 days in the Bahamas sounds super lame...

I could definitely take a 2 week trip all by myself. That sounds like heaven.

I was ravenous the first few months. I was seriously eating peanut butter, full fat dairy, and carbs all the time. Plus I drank (water) like a fish.

Do we have to meet up for every meal? Are we doing drinks and happy hour every night? Are we doing an outing every day? A week seems too much now.

I'll sit on your bench, ripper. I would definitely do a two week trip with friends and would way rather it be an adventurous place like Iceland than somewhere like the Bahamas. My friends and I do small trips every year and I strongly prefer the adventure ones to the hang out and lounge ones. I like lounging, but mostly just with MH.

No thanks to 2 weeks without sex.
Only kind of kidding.

I swear I should just have my own fridge at work for all of the food I bring with me every day.

I love lounging vacations. I could sit on the beach and lounge all day, every day, for a week. Alone. It’s only pleasant if I don’t have to chase after small children and lather them with sunscreen every 30 minutes.

The weather people are predicting the possibility of up to 4” of snow here tonight, and I want it desperately. Either way, I will be making a huge pot of split pea soup tonight, but I would so love for everything to be shut down tomorrow.

Lol at being to "super cheap" to take a 2 week trip to Iceland. That seems like it would be quite pricey, even for the non super cheapos. I will gladly take your place on the 3 day Bahama trip if you want. Except I am probably to super cheap (or broke) to afford even that ATM...

Yea, she said oh yea they were going to do that with their DD tonight since school starts back tomorrow. No comment on doing it for herself, tho. They aren't super clean people anyways. She has terrible BO thats an issue I am trying to figure out how to address as nicely as possible. She just threw it out there so casually, like it was NBD She has bad BO BEFORE this? Yes, its awful. Its been a thing for weeks now. I have to say something to her

This is awesome! I figured out how to get generic epipens for daycare for $65, but I’ll contact our doc and ask for an auviq prescription for the other ones. Thank you!!

Ugh. Now I’m in epipen refill hell. No I am not paying $735 for a 2pac. That is criminal that the prices are still so jacked up on epipens. Seriously.

readyornot aren't you HR? Sorry but it's kind of your job to tell her to go take a shower. Yes this is pretty much what my boss said too, when he handed me a can of Fabreez & told me my office stinks & to handle it. This is not the part of my job I'm good at, or have a lot of experience with.

rvasc you're welcome! Our allergist is actually pushing the auvi-q prescriptions right now because of the coupon, but they also are more user friendly. It literally talks you through each step and counts down how long you need to hold the injection in. My son's school was relieved to have the verbal step by step instructions.
