I'm going to loose my goddamned mind right now with DD. Not even 9am and melt down after melt down. And the constant whining. I may be drinking after I drop her off at DC.

It feels like Friday and I am very upset that it is not. It's messing me all up. I am only working a partial day tomorrow, but I wish I took the whole day off.

R is talking in her sleep again and it's cracking me up. Also, since I've not really been around lately, she's started saying water bottle and it's seriously the cutest thing ever.
H's parents and my mother get into town tomorrow for R's birthday party Saturday. I'm nervous and excited. It's supposed to be like 85° Saturday, which I'm not thrilled about since the party is outside and there's not really any shade, but whatever.

Today's our Friday. Both DH & DS have 4 day weekends but it's been rainy. This weather has been a bust lately. What happened to May flowers?! Poor dh is bummed the weekend looks like sporadic rain so he's unsure if he wants to proceed with the deck project.

We're supposed to have a birthday pool party to go to tomorrow too. Not sure now with the weather and now that DD puked this morning. Hope the weather improves where you are and the deck can get started. I'm jealous as DH has been saying he's going to build a deck for the past few years... lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hopefully she'll just rest and relax for you the rest of the day.

& of course tonight is soccer. It has been such a freaking bust! Spring soccer is THE worst, it's like someone has a voodoo doll on Thursdays. It's going to be a mess if they still have it. Ugh not really my idea of fun

So I am kind of ticked off at the IL's. DH and I decided to go on our little trip Saturday since the IL's said they would watch DD. I proposed the ideas given here yesterday about giving them some money to take her out (ice cream and the zoo). When DH called them last night to see if they wanted to take her to the zoo, they told him they are having the family picnic Saturday. They said they would still watch DD if we still wanted to go away but would be having everyone over.
The reason I am mad about this is twofold. One because they told me earlier in the week they were doing the family picnic Sunday or Monday and when I told them we had another picnic Sunday they said they would do it Monday. The second reason is that they are the type of people to hold this over our heads. So it's going to become a thing now that we did something else instead of going to their party...even though our plans were already made. I gave DH the chance to bail on our trip so that he could make his parents party, but he is also super pissed at them for doing this. So, we are going anyway. I guess at least DD will have her cousins to play with and she'll have more fun than just being there with them all day again.

Last day of school for DS today. He loves his new school- I'm so thankful he enjoys school again. I can't believe he will be in 4th grade this fall!
He leaves with my mom on their trip after school today. He's so excited! SO and I are going to dinner tonight and may catch a drink while out.

The UO thread got me thinking that DS' school doesn't have a kindergarten graduation & I'm kind of glad they don't. The last day of school is "field day" & a family picnic. Not exactly sure what that all entails. The preschool doesn't partake so we've never been.

what was their reason for changing the date of the party misspeansmama ? They claim it's weather related. But since it's supposed to be rainy all weekend, I am not sure if I buy it. I honestly think they are doing it so they don't have to keep DD occupied themselves all day.

At least she'll have company like you said.

gangy aw that's a bummer your DD is sick. Hopefully you guys can have a relaxing day. LED I hope R's party goes well! I am not looking forward to the heat either. Today is my Friday! I also have Monday off so I'm ready to enjoy a 4 day weekend. I think MH and I might take DD to the zoo tomorrow just to get out of the house but, haven't full decided. I also need to study a bunch.

Not exactly sure what that all entails. The preschool doesn't partake so we've never been. So I just checked our district calendar and we do have a kindergarten graduation. I think this is insanely stupid given the weird set up of our schools. It's K-1 in one building, 2-3 in another, then 4-6 in another building that is attached to the jr/sr high which is 7-12. It's so strange to me to have that many schools. They should have a 1st grade graduation instead b/c at that point they are actually leaving the school.

At least she'll have company like you said. We definitely are keeping our plans. And the more I think about it, it's really for the better and I can feel less guilty. I think DD gets board at the IL's sometimes. She's there pretty much all day every day and they don't have a ton of energy to play with her. So this way she'll have her cousins to play with.

I can only understand a graduation or any type of ceremony type thing if you are leaving the building. DS' school is K-2. I've only heard of some kind of step-up thing for the 2nd graders when they transition to the next elementary school but not exactly sure what they do. In preschool (which was in the same school/building) they had a very small "bridging" ceremony. It was super casual. No gowns & they made their own caps out of construction paper. That was sweet/momentous in my eyes because they are GOING to kindergarten..officially starting grade school, your K-12 years. Going into 1st grade is normal, it's the next grade up. lol weird

Have a fun weekend misspeansmama! I'm sure your DD will have a blast with her cousins and if your ILs are mad you're not there, well that's their problem. Also, hi. I'm just going to hang out here and on MW today. I can't take any more board drama.

I'm getting nervous about this birthday party. It's going to be a disaster. I was only anticipating like ten ish people showing up and now there will be like 20-25! Plus it's going to be so hot and sunny and my mother is going to be there making the whole thing awkward. Ugh. This is the point at which I would normally just bow out and save myself the anxiety, but I can't really do that this time since I'm the one throwing the party! WHAT HAVE I GOTTEN MYSELF INTO?!?!?

Hang in there! Do you have any of those pop-up tents or ones you could borrow? Throw one or two up and everyone can get some shade. It'll all work out.

gangy sorry your DD got sick! Maybe that's why she was so fussy this morning! LED As a severe introvert, birthday parties have been one of the most difficult parts of parenting for me. I feel you sister. Speaking of birthday parties...DD's turning 9 on Memorial Day (so, Monday), and I FINALLY got her birthday party booked yesterday. With no help from her dad. He had no ideas, didn't pitch in to help or anything. I did all the planning and DH and I are paying for it. When her dad dropped her off yesterday, I told him when/where it would be and pretty much just got a shrug and an okay. I'm mildly annoyed. I'm fine that he didn't want to help pitch in and pay for it, he does pay child support and he also got her a really nice gift for her birthday (a video game system), but c'mon dude, you just acted like you DNGAF about your daughter's birthday party RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER. DH & I are also giving her tickets to see DanTDM live for her birthday (those of you with younger kids won't get why that's a big deal, but those of you with older, Minecraft/Youtube loving kids will), which she has no clue is coming. She wants to go SO BAD and I've been playing it off like we couldn't get tickets. Cannot WAIT to see her face when she gets the tickets.

radiantfate I'm so sorry about DD's father being so shitty! I just don't get it. Hopefully she didn't realize how he acted in front of her. I hope she has a great party! How old is she turning? Hope she enjoys the tickets/show I have no idea who that is lol! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

She totally realizes how he acts and how it's different from how me and my DH act. She tells me all the time she doesn't think daddy understands/cares about her, but she's also seemed to reach a point of acceptance with it. Maybe I should take a cue from her and do the same. DanTDM is probably the most famous Minecraft YouTuber. DD aspires to be him one day. Also she wants to be a programmer. The girl's got aspirations!
