Hi friends! coworker has moved out of my building because she told the administration my boss was bullying her (spoiler: she wasn't) and now I am the only person in this big building.. aside from the ghost. I feel like this is a good thing....ghosts aside. |

C was cooperative and cute this morning so it started the day well. Second day in a row with no poop diaper, although there has been pee. Progress, right? I'm trying to get caught up at work because I am off next week. I can't wait.
However it is supposed to be some quality alone time with DH and I kind of want to punch him in the nuts right now. I should probably address this soon vs spoiling our C free time next week. Long story short, I'm sick of doing everything around the house myself. I do hire out the cleaning and the lawn but just the regular maintenance adult shit is frustrating. The day to day of me always being the organizer is exhausting. And I'm sick of his job being so stressful and him doing nothing about it. He told me he thought he was dying last week because he was so run down. A bit OTT but if you feel that way, take a god damn day off! He runs the place so it's not like he can't delegate. He just doesn't. On top of that, and this is what makes me want to punch him in the nuts, he has not said ONE word about my weight loss. If I say I hit a goal he says "good for you" but not once has he complimented me or said something without me leading him into it. Like "does this look good?" I get "yep". It's like he doesn't even notice me. I've lost 54 fucking pounds dude!

wedding Those are all valid complaints and if I lost that kind of weight and H said nothing, I'd be more than ticked off. And if work is that bad he needs to take active steps to fix the issues. Especially since he runs the place. I'm a control freak, it's hard to delegate and let things go but if it's affecting his home life, he needs to prioritize that.

I'm sorry wedding. I think the alone time together next week will do you both some good. You can air your grievances and hopefully by the end of the week you can figure out a way to become more connected. |

Like you said, it will only get worse if you don't. Thirdly, sometimes men need to be trained. Their minds don't work like ours do. Tell him what's bothering you and come up with a plan to remedy it. |

Morning! A local shoe store is having a big sale today so we are going to check that out. They sell stride rite and other expensive brands, so hoping to find something for both girls for the fall. Then maybe pool this afternoon.

I like the dark cyan. Sorry you're having a tough time with yh. Hopefully the time off will help him recharge and get him in a better mindset. I think it's worth mentioning some of the things that have been bothering you. I find w mh that sometimes I have to spell things out for him. He doesn't mean to be an ass, he just doesn't always pick up on my emotional cues. |

wedding Men are dumb. Completely serious. They just are. You have to lay it all out on the table because otherwise they won't see it. Just let him know, "hey, I get that your job is stressful, delegate some shit out and take a day off once in awhile so that you don't get overworked and frazzled. It would also be nice if you could give me a little help in the maintenance of our lives." Then give him one of the tasks you have on your plate, say the gutters. Then say, "I also feel like you haven't noticed, but I'm becoming quite the bombshell and you haven't said a word unless I ask you specifically. So start noticing your hot wife once in awhile!"

wedding like others said, vent away! I'd be more than ticked at my h, talk to him, he might no even realise he's hurting you... men are made differently! Plus I love the darkcyan, I think it would look lovely on you! Watch this, I will make you smile (at least it always makes me smile).

Went to the dentist this morning. I managed to not cough the entire time I was getting my teeth clean, but then had a major coughing fit when I got out to my car. I slept with a cough drop in my mouth last night. Safe? No, but it allowed me to get a little bit of sitting up sleep.

I put a pair of overall shorts on H this morning and she told me she needed to get her paintbrush. Apparently she thinks overalls are for painting, lol

Hi! Just another day at the office... I am leaving at 2 to get my hair done tho. We finished grouting the tile last night and it looks good. Hopefully the ceiling gets sprayed today and the walls get sanded so we can paint tomorrow.
We are hosting the ILs saturday and a bunch of friends Sunday so I'm starting to panic about getting my house somewhat back in order by then. And I need to make a grocery list which is going to cost a fortune. I really should check out the new Aldi to see if it makes a big difference. But after yesterday's fiasco at the store with both kids, I need to find a time to go alone.

Morning! N just woke up, now we're just cuddling and watching magic school bus. Pretty low key day here, I'm hoping to get a walk in but I'll have to see how N is feeling. Do they still make The Magic School Bus episodes or are they classic episodes from the 90s? I have only seen the old ones but Dude loves these. Especially the episode/book about the solar system.

So Cadence has been throwing around some attitude quite a bit lately, bossing us around, and just sassing off. I try to put a stop to it immediately when she does it to me, cause I'm not taking that crap. Apparently, at school yesterday she took it a bit farther and started spitting at the teachers. They made her sit by herself and she wasn't allowed to play during ball crawl time.
I'm over this phase. It is a phase, right?

wedding, darkcyan! Also, I'm sorry. I hope you're able to have a chat with YH and enjoy the quality time together. It's good you are recognizing it. I'd probably just not say anything and sit and stew, ruining all our time together.

wedding, also those types of bathing suits crack me up whenever I see them now because my sister has one (I love it, it looks great on her) and when she moved to Miami she was like, "All these super tan moms are at the beach with the kids in their thong bikinis while I'm over here all pale and stuff in my dresskini!"
