I've got like 15 carts going because I need to order baby shower invitations, bday decorations for L's party, party favors, L's birthday gift, Easter stuff and a big brother/big sister gift for both kids. Whew. This is me, too. I did just order DH's birthday gift from Southern Tide...only 14 to go! Goodbye, money.

I'm curious what others think of this situation:
On Monday at reading I took on another kid because his reader was out. I've read with him many times before and he is a fun, outgoing 9yo. He has braces and I noticed that half of the braces on his top teeth were gone. Like the brackets were off his teeth on the left side and the wire was totally gone. I asked him what happened and he said "the wire broke so my mom removed them". Then he completely shut down and muttered "it didn't hurt". After a few minutes of reading he started coming out of his shell again. Do you guys think it's weird? The brackets were gone and I didn't see any glue. I can't imagine that his mom took those off too. His reaction was just odd, so much so that my boss asked me later what was going on. She wants to tell the program advisor but I don't want to be OTT.

Yes. They said it will just be "unpaid time off" I have no idea why they changed the date. They don't seem to know much. I asked when I will know my severance amount and when it will be deposited. HR said they weren't sure but they would look into in. I'm one of 500 some odd people that lost jobs, I can't be the only one asking, why do they not know?! Apparently I will get a letter with it about 2 weeks after my last day and then I need to sign and return it. Then they will process it and deposit. So they have no idea basically. Thats what I said. I guess old bank is handling my last pay check but new bank is paying the severance. But since we haven't had our financial close yet (it got pushed) it's more difficult. I think they are just ass holes and have handled this whole thing so bad.

Thanks for the suggestion, we got a toy like that for her and she really liked it, so does E. He broke it within 3days She was sleeping with MH in his room until he left so this is kind of new with her in my room. And my room has the litterbox in it so I hate to cutoff access. But I have been closing the door when this starts to happen and separating them. I will have to get her a good harness too so she can go outside with us on the leash. Shadow's XL one will be too big for her. I weighed them last night and SHadow is 17# and Olive is 9.5#. She seems so tiny.

Hiii. I'm at the gym doing homework because free childcare with the membership. I had my doctor appt this morning. All went well. He gave me what I wanted (Wellbutrin) and a script for something if I have a panic attack. Man, I never had any of these issues when I was younger! Getting older sucks! Enjoy your last day peachsmama! @trgimes klong11 I wanna see pics of both your little cowgirls!!

peachsmama , will you have to pay for March health insurance and other benefits? I don't use their health care. We use A's. His health insurance is 1/3 the cost of my banks.

It's weird. +1! I feel like that would have really hurt. why not visit the ortho if the wire broke?

wedding I think if your gut and obviously your boss' gut both told you something was off, I would say something about it.

I would talk with the program director. Maybe his normal reader told the director about what happened and they have more info. Edit: add tag wedding

sands42 Glad you had a good appointment! Watch the side effects of the Wellbutrin. Or have you taken it before? I remember when I was pregnant, H's doctor prescribed Wellbutrin to help him stop smoking. We read the side effects and decided not to fill the script. I know easily angered and vivid dreams were two of the effects that really made us decide against.

@weddimg I would say something. It's not like other people wouldn't be able to see it. Maybe someone at the school could ask the kid about it as if they just noticed it.

DD and T built a leprechaun trap and DH put a leprechaun in it last night. They found it this morning and were so excited. Of course DH left for a trip this morning and thanks to our Google Home telling the kids the thing eats wild mushrooms, they now want me to go out searching for wild mushrooms. The leprechaun is also suppose to lead them to treasure so I guess I get to hide treasure too. I also am not allowed to leave him unattended so he can't escape Another time DH gave T a drum set before leaving on a trip. I thought my husband loved me but I may be wrong.

I woke up with a headache so I’m hoping coffee will help. I had a good breakfast but I’m still hungry. Must be wine and peach talking about food. Luckily, My boss just came in with scones and muffins... it’s just meant to be!

I did a lot of research on what medicine has the least side effects and this is the conclusion I came to. I hate any side effects but they all have them unfortunately.

Tales from the shuttle: some lady just sprayed hairspray on her hair. The shuttle is half full and poorly circulated.

This seems very odd to me. Like his mom was very angry with him and ripped the brackets off. My niece has braces and has had the wire break: getting it fixed was NBD. Seems like something fishy might be going on.

Happy last day peachsmama! sands42 glad your appt went well and you got what you needed! wedding fx yh takes C this weekend! Also, I would mention the braces thing to the director. I’m headed for my first laser hair removal session this morning (2 hours away). Bye bye chin hair and lady stache! Lol. While I’m in the big city I will be grocery shopping so my H doesn’t starve to death while I’m gone next week. Also going to look for a pair of dress pants. All mine are sooo tight right now. I don’t hardly wear them since I wear a uniform for work and live in jeans the rest of the time. But the training next week is business casual. Tonight I’m having dinner and drinks with friends. Looking forward to that!

My anxiety/panic attacks started like 6 years ago and got really bad like 3 years ago. Weird how it just hits you all of a sudden!
