We are cutting short our trip and heading home tomorrow because my one kid has allergy induced asthma and my sister’s house just completely sets it off. I am at max dose of every single medication and we are barely holding steady. Poor kid.

Yes my third. I’m like 2.5 days out now and still feeling really sore and terrible. I stayed at the hospital alone after my second and sent MH home to keep DD’s routine somewhat the same and figured I’d do the same this time. But I’m having a really hard time being here alone now. Getting out of bed to change the baby is a feat of strength. Of course we didn’t arrange anyone to watch my other kids overnight so 🤷🏻♀️ I hope the night goes well. Can you send the baby to the nursery? I’m going to try tonight for sure. She’s cluster feeding and my milk is already in so it’ll just be for brief intervals but I think anything will help. The nurses here tonight are wonderful so they’re helping so so much.

Is my H the only one who asks me questions to shit that he knows I don't have an answer to? Tonight it is about parts for the new pool pump. My dad does this to me, so I gave him an echo.

For future reference, an air purifier in the room where she sleeps for several days beforehand, spraying allergy spray into carpet and soft surfaces, and a bath right before bed are all things that help me. Is she allergic to pets? This stuff: www.amazon.com/dp/B000RWFFHY/ref=asc_df_B000RWFFHY5429106/?

When C was born I was lucky that they weren’t too busy. If H was home with R or just not there (I made him go home and nap a couple of times) I was able to page the nurse to come help me. They also, surprisingly, didn’t say anything about me dozing off while he nursed 24/7 and I tried to keep a couple of diapers and the wipes on the table next to my bed.

Yes. Anything that isn't a plant that comes out of the sea is seafood. I’ve always thought of shellfish as seafood. Like I know people who can’t eat shrimp but eat fish just fine. Never thought it stretched to sharks and dolphin and the like. Shellfish and fish are separate allergies. I have both.

I'm so annoyed. I had a paper due Saturday and I busted my ass to finish it and submit it last week. Three days after it was due, the professor announced an extension until next week. This is all after explicitly stating at the beginning of the course that no late work would be accepted (duh) and this is the second time he's extended a due date after the fact. So I guess everyone who didn't turn it in gets more time? He better be taking points off.

Poor baby girl spiked a 102F fever right before bed. She’s been a drooly, grumpy mess all day. She’s been dosed up w/Motrin, but I anticipate that tonight is going to be rough for everyone in the Seadragon house.
On the plus side, my garlic parm breadsticks were fucking amazing and actually WW friendly.

Omg I may need a drink after all. I thought DDs games were 60 minutes. Turns out it’s 90 minutes/till the end of that inning. It’s cold. The rain started before the game. And they still played the whole thing. It started at 5:45. She’s usually asleep by 7:30. We haven’t even had dinner yet. Insanity

They all run right after school and don't require you transport your kid and they have you home by dinner up until high school. It does not favor the working parents who want to see games but in all other ways it is great.

Ok the funniest thing happened today. Like, 10/10 hilarious.
We were at the beach bar at our resort. It is not all inclusive, so you pay for your meal. This is important to the story.
There are like 6 of us sitting at the bar drinking. The tables behind us have plenty of people. I guess some lady at a table ordered mozzarella sticks among other things. (Sidebar: wtf eats fried cheese in a bathing suit? But ok). All of a sudden, she approaches the bar with the mozzarella basket in hand. She goes, to the cook, HEY. HOW MANY MOZZARELLA STICKS COME IN AN ORDER? Very aggressive. The guy goes, 10. She starts losing her gd mind. Thickest Boston accent ever, which adds to the funny I guess.
“What the fuck. There are only 9 sticks! You are ripping me off! I knew I got more of these last time I ordered”. The guy and the rest of us are just like what is happening.
Before anyone can respond she throws the basket at the bar sending the sticks flying, and then in the loudest booming voice imaginable, “I AM A LAWYER! I WILL SUE YOU!!!!” And stomps away.
I’m not lying. This fucking happened! The entire place was crying and hyperventilating with laughter. She was so fucking serious about it She did not pay her bill, but no one cared. She also isn’t a guest at this resort so I gave no idea who she is or what her story is.
The funniest part is that about 5 years ago, at this same bar, I witnessed a man throw a basket of chicken wings at the bartender because he thought the wings were too small. He was also from Boston. What is up with this bar and the Bostonians???

I just think going till 7:30ish on a school night is insane for 7/8.

I would 100% eat mozzarella sticks in a bathing suit at a resort. I'm not throwing food at anyone though.

DS, who is just starting to be verbal, learned “lava you” after the Pixar short and says it to me at bedtime now.

ripper - I waited/bartender for almost 20 years. Nothing shocks me anymore. I would have laughed along at the absurdity. I also have never in my life ordered mozzarella sticks. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

People ate all kinds of fried food sitting in the blazing sun on the cruise I was on, like on sun loungers next to the pool. Greasy fried food in the heat makes my stomach turn

Mozzarella sticks are one of my favorite foods. Top 5.
