It finally happened. This morning, Maggie's teacher pulled me aside at drop off to tell me that Maggie said fuck twice yesterday. I was mortified, because she of course learned it from me. But what can you do? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Work work work. We have one of our yearly audits on Thursday so I've got to do actual work today to prepare for that. I'm so tired. I started my period this week and it's just wiped me of energy. And I was up for 45 minutes at 3 am with Jackson. Every time I tried to leave the living room he woke back up. We went to kellykinns F's birthday party this weekend and now Matthew is asking for a birthday cake. And it has to be a circle one. Not square! I was told 3 times.. I think we'll bake a cake tonight for his 1/2 birthday lol.

I guess I'm here now? Is this the decided on final post-TCF home or just a temporary landing ground? I need to get on a desktop so I can get an avatar.

I'm tired. I got low blood sugar at midnight and had a hard time getting back to sleep. Then I had s sex dream about my boss so I will be blushing all day. He looks like this so I knew it was bound to happen eventually

Morning! I'm home sick today, pretty sure it's just side effects from one of my medications but I'm really dizzy.

Also, one of you friended me on FB and I cannot for the life of me figure out who it is. Anyone? She has an N13 boy and a younger girl and I feel terrible that I can't put a screen name to those details.

I was wondering the same. I don't think it's Chrisy. She has the same sn in at least one of these other places.

Morning! Oh no, @sing! Preschool today. That is all. Did anybody read the comic over on the politics board about the mental load? It really resonated with me and I can't get it out of my head.

I'm so tired of hearing about my grandparents house and the money for it. No one can make a decision and now my brother is threatening not to take the house because he has to pay a little for it. He's only doing that to scare my dad into giving him his way since dad doesn't want strangers living in it and I refuse to take it. Now dad is saying maybe him and mom will take it. But mom hates the house and doesn't want to live there so she said no. Mom keeps dragging me into it no matter how much I tell her to stop. I need to talk to my dad. This is tearing him apart and no one will compromise. I've told him to drop it but he says it's not fair to me. I'm just over it all. It hasn't been fair since I was born. I was always dead last in importance in this family and this is just normal. But not that it's monetary, he actually sees it.

I read it, and I get it, to an extent. But honestly, my first thought was, "why didn't *you* offer to help?" If I went to a friend's house for dinner and she was trying to feed the kids and cook and was in the weeds, I would offer to help (and even if she wasn't in the weeds; that's just the way my mama raised me). The point, I may have missed it.

wedding My boss is attractive as well, it was kind of awkward when I first started, but now that I know him past just his looks, it is easier. Plus he grew a beard, which I'm not a fan of, so that helps! I'm still trying to recover from day drinking Sunday at a graduation party. So tired.

@sing-I think I was thinking less about the friend who came over, because, of course you offer to help when you go to someone's house. I saw it in terms of how we handle tasks in this house. I always do at least four things at once -- they build on each other, naturally, but mh doesn't have that instinct. He does the one thing he's doing (and usually it's the thing he's been asked to do). I don't necessarily mind it because I'm a bit type a (no surprise). He's always super grateful and thankful for the things I do around here for all of us, but I shared the comic with him anyway so we could at least create an awareness together.

sing2phins, i am laughing with you. we have had our moments with bad words. always such a humbling experience. peachsmama, i'm sorry youre still having to deal with all this. It sounds like a lot to handle with everything else you have going on. I hope a resolution comes about soon. I am not in the attractive boss camp, and I never have been. Coworkers/employees.. whole 'nother thang.

And he's the same height as me. But surprisingly doesn't have the typical "little mans syndrome" ETA I'm 5'1" so. short.

sing2phins Millie says it too but we totally ignore it. What's really funny/sad is she always uses it in the correct context. So far I haven't heard of her saying it at school (runs to knock on aaaaalllll the wood). Also, she hears it from me. I try not to but when I get frustrated and can't find my words the f word usually flies right out. Lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I get it. Like I said, I was distracted by that the whole time, though. I am definitely the one who tries to clean off our island where all the crap gets dumped and gets sidetracked by something I see on the way to the living room to put the toy away that wasn't supposed to be in the kitchen in the first place. And H is definitely the one-track type - he finds a task and does it to completion without getting distracted.

I asked her teacher for advice, and she agreed that we shouldn't make a big deal of it, but suggested saying, "what's another word we could use instead?"
