I was super productive this morning but now I want a nap. C was supposed to have his first Tball practice tonight but it got rained out. Not much else going on. Trying to keep my head above water at work and not get too down about C being a problem at school. He hit the same kid yesterday and he almost got into a fight with another but used his words and the teacher gave him a lot of praise for that- so some improvement. When we talked about it later though he said "You don't want me anymore do you?". I don't want to make him feel unloved but I'm not sure how to get this all to stop. Parenting sucks sometimes.

Ugh, lfig, sorry for the stress. I hope the director is able to figure something out or y'all can come up with a good plan B. Is transitioning to the 3's class not an option, so there wouldn't be so much of a jump and maybe ratios would be less than 1:12? No unfortunately, the state said she had to be in the room with the kids her own age.

Also there's some fancy luncheon going on right now and I'm not so patiently waiting for it to wrap up so I can grab some leftovers.

Glad they have a plan, tgrimes . Are you feeling a bit better about it? Yes, I am. I was fully prepared to appear on the evening news if he told me lets just wait it out again...

If we drink that much it might turn into a sleepover! I had been thinking like half a dozen, lol. wineallthetime not everyone drinks like you, me and tgrimes . :-) Although I agree with the 1-1.5 bottles per person. Some will drink none or maybe 1 glass, others, like me, could drink the entire bottle to themselves, given the opportunity. I am going to be the biggest disappointment at our gtg! Well, me and flamingo apparently.

Morning all.
I've had back to back meetings this morning and now I have exactly 459456194 tasks and projects from those meetings.
So, that's where I'll be; work, work, working.

I got the job! It was less of an interview and more of a “this is what the job entails, do you want it?” Either way it’s super flexible and extra money is great. tgrimes I’m glad you have a plan. lfig sorry about the daycare situation. I hope you can get it worked out so everyone is happy.

Poor little dude. Parenting can be one heck of a mind game.

Conversation with the ENT.
Me: I really appreciate you fitting us in today. ENT: No problem. You're like family. Me: You probably see us more than your own family...

Conversation with the receptionist.
Receptionist: We don't have any openings today. Me: Please, i'm begging you. He was up screaming several times last night & he's got fluid coming out of his other ear now. Receptionist: I can see he's sick ma'am, but the doctor's schedule is really full today. H: (removes paci and sticks out his bottom lip) Me: I swear I didn't teach him to do that on the way over here.

I just walked down 32 flights of stairs and there are 4 fire trucks outside. Not sure what the problem is but my floor was starting to smell like burned plastic. Uh oh. Maybe it's just a fried plug or something. We had that happen in our office before and it melted the plastic of the printer plug.

Also hi, I don't think I've actually posted yet this morning.
Chase woke up looking fine and there was no blood on his sheets. The kid HATES ice packs but thankfully loves the icy teethers, which really saved us last night. His upper lip was super swollen on the inside but the hanging flap was gone (I should probably wash his sheets when I get home...) and there's no new bruising. He needs to stop trying to destroy his face though.
Colin has been pretty whiny and quick to cry lately. It's driving me a bit nutty but DH cannot handle it. He keeps making (empty) threats about no books before bed, taking away his toys, not moving him into kinder, etc. Very often they are really outsized threats for the transgression, first off, but he NEVER follows through so I don't know why he bothers. Colin certainly tunes him right out. DH has been super moody in general since I got back from Calgary so I need to address that first, but it's making me crazy. Far more than Colin's crying does.
11 days to race day. I feel sick every time I think about it.

Re: Handmaid's Tale. It took me an embarrassing amount of time to realize that "Offred" and "Offglen" referred to them belonging to the commanders. I thought it was a biblical thing and I don't bible well.

tgrimes I'm glad they fit you in and have a plan. Also I know it's a receptionists job to limit access, but I feel like some doctors get frustrated by it. My ob gave me her cell last year bc she said it's so hard to get through the front office..you'd think they could fix that🤷.

I got the pot pie and the muffins made but screwed up my cookie dough and they didn't come out right. I didn't tell them what I was bringing so no big deal. I also burned a batch and my house smells lovely.. Running to drop them off and go to the BMV for a new trailer title. We hired another driver and bought another trailer.

Hi hi. I feel and look like I've been run over by a truck. I got fb friended by a mom of a classmate and she promptly added me to a secret fb group that is mom's from J's school that go out monthly! I am probably the baby of the group at 35, but I'm excited to be included!
I also need to finish a personal statement for this program I'm applying for..not sure they will admit me if I wait until the very last week to apply😬. Also not sure I want to do it, but probably needed before full brain atrophy sets in..

I envision most of these ladies being similar; if nothing else, everyone is driving so that kind of limits you right there.
