I’m totally exhausted but happy after my first week back in my K classroom. I’ve been asleep every night this week by 8:30 😂 So, tonight I’m celebrating making it 5 minutes past my new bedtime by having a beer. Then probably falling asleep by 9 instead, haha.

@darlene You just can't catch a break. Is your skin around the surgical sites any better today? Lol. I was back at the doctor's today because I developed an allergy to the antibiotics I was taking. So while the skin around my incisions is better, I have an itchy rash on my legs, torso, groin, and armpits. Because of course. I hope they straighten you out soon.

Jet’s pizza and beer over here, yum. Not sure if I’m moving to wine or vodka next. The wine expert at Costco (apparently that’s a thing) talked me into a bottle of $7.99 moscato. I’m skeptical. I've gotten some great wine for cheap at Costco!

Well I wasn’t going to drink tonight, but the kids have driven me to it. They were a complete shitshow playing with the neighbor kids. Meltdowns galore. The neighbors were cool about it, but ugh.

My seven year old just loudly announced his distaste for DT. In our front yard of our military community. Cool. Then he said "oh yeah, you told me not to tell people who you voted for!" When I voted, my middle kid yelled “DT is a stinky poop!” I definitely heard a laugh from one of the voting areas, though.

MIL is en route to pick up the girls for ballet and I am going to take a bath with some of the luxurious Lush stuff emma gave me recently! I need to be ready for all our adventuring tomorrow with jabbers! will also be sure to carb load spaghetti tonight for endurance. I’m all set- passport is packed, gas tank is full, Saltine Toffee is made, and I even went to the currency exchange today to get me some Canadian dollars. Can’t wait! Damn. I'm so jealous. I hope you guys have an amazing time and I'll try to make the next one!

Today has been shitty. The baby has been awake since 6am with maybe 3 hours of being asleep total. In 30ish minute increments. What's wrong with these babies today?? DD has been the same way today Yup. Mine sleeps at night but is almost harder than the preschooler to get to nap during the day. Today I am thankful for baby swings and vodka

filingjointly parenting other children when you’re sleep deprived has so far been the worst part this go around, especially since toddler does not understand or care at all because toddler. I’m glad your H can help out in the AM. Yep. I mostly just let my older two eat all the snacks they want to distract them on rough days. And I play a lot of board games while nursing. And then if the baby naps, I put a movie on so I can lie on the couch. 🤷🏻♀️ Solidarity 👊🏻. We’ll get through this. Probably.

Are you feeling better Pistol? Nope. I thought I was so I tried mowing yesterday. I got 2 yards done and had to come home. C woke me up at 3 because he peed his pants and I have been up ever since. Thought I was doing better and was 24 hours fever free so I mowed another yard today and that really kicked my ass. I came home and took a bath because I couldn’t get warmed up. This afternoon I had a low grade fever (only 100°) again despite taking DayQuil that had tylenol in it 2 hours prior. The cough has set in now and I’m pretty much miserable. H is too. I feel bad but we’ve basically plopped the kids in front of the tv all week (when not at school) and they’ve been surviving on cereal, oatmeal, and pb&j because it’s all stuff they can make themselves. Oh and we ordered pizza one night.

So while the skin around my incisions is better, I have an itchy rash on my legs, torso, groin, and armpits. I was wondering if it was an allergy to the antibiotic when you were talking about the rash last night. Ugh. I’m so sorry. I hope they can get everything figured out soon!

filingjointly Weight concerns are the worst. I totally get why pediatricians keep a close eye on it, but I feel like they also create a lot of needless pressure and worry. You’re doing a great job! That squishy, sleep-hating baby is lucky to have you. I’m just happy it’s my third that’s throwing all this nonsense at me. I was a very stereotypical first time Mom with my DD1 and this would have made me spiral. And she knows she’s lucky. She shouts all about the glory of MaMaMaMa when ever anyone else tries to hold her. 🙄

A local by Montauk brewing Co. It's amazing I feel like I need to come see you and we can drink your local craft beers and then you come to Ohio and drink our local craft beers. And then y'all can both come see me and thatgolfb and drink our local craft beers.

We’re at the rehearsal dinner for my cousins wedding and A has spiked a fever. Luckily I had thrown some Motrin in the diaper bag before we left, so I got her dosed up and now we’re sitting in my aunts car watching Tangled. I’m hoping someone looks at their phone soon and sees my request for a margarita.

H and I are in a gambling mood. We both took NyQuil tonight. Fingers crossed the kids sleep all night because I’m probably going to be worthless for a bit. I’m hoping it knocks me out soon. My 3 am awakening was rather rude and I barely got a 20 minute nap with both kids on top of me this afternoon.
