That sucks. Do they have actual reasons for not liking you? or just petty shit? Not that either make gossiping okay, just curious. My mom has the same situation at work. She's actually transferring because of it. It's so bad that patients have submitted complaints about how my mom is treated by a certain tech but nothing changes even after multiple meetings with upper management. The woman's whole reason for not liking my mom, she actually said this in a meeting with their boss and the boss' boss "she sees her grand kids a lot and I never get to see mine. It's not fair" We had a temp that was working here and she was basically promised my job and I got it. She is gone now. Although unfair, I think they seemed to think I took the job from her. I have since acknowledged to them that I agree that was an effed up situation and they were warming up to me. The shit talking was saying they are sick of my complaining. Which I never complain. I have commiserated with the one I thought was nice but never added my own complaints. So she is likely the root of this poisoning the others. But honestly, they've been looking for reasons to dislike me. I'm sorry. Thats obnoxious and petty on their part. I second tgrimes idea, dick glitter for all.

I don't like the medals either but I only saw them briefly this morning- I usually am mobile. We also have officially switched to almond milk this week. I was holding my breath w B this morning as I was sure she was going to turn her nose up and refuse it. But she drank every drop! She's rarely did that w cow milk. C is my super star eater, so no issues, of course. Why did you decide to switch? I can't get Atticus to accept almond. He loves soy, cashew, and pea milk though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I've always been a little grossed out by milk. This is a safe space, right? . . . I've never drank it and I really didn't want my kids drinking it either. I finally convinced mh that there are better things he could put in his body. He said he was pleasantly surprised at how nice it tasted. Victory!

They want to be mean girls then let them do it without acting two-faced. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That is really shitty wedding! As if it was your fault that management did not recruit the way they all wanted. F those petty bias.

Ugh, I just got a FB ad for "carcass art". WTF? Apparently it was pictures of animal carcasses that were "beautiful". I didn't click it, and flagged it for being offensive. WTF FB?

wedding hugs. That sucks. We're all too old for the high school bullshit. Cher exciting! I want to see before pics too! I'm laying in bed and have t decided what to do yet today. I should go the gym, but I'm tired. I also need to go get something for dh for his bday tomorrow and I told the boys we'd make him cupcakes. And I could go work on the house. I feel like I really only have the energy to do one of these, so I need to choose. So far shopping and cupcake making seem like more fun than the gym and painting! Also, I'm officially on the second trimester and I *think* the ms is letting up. I don't want to jinx myself, but I've felt human the last two nights and didn't puke at all yesterday. Please keep everything crossed for me!! I'm also starting to get a little bump, although right now it looks like a beer belly and not a baby!

We were looking at a Sesame Street farm book the other day and there is a picture of a girl milking a cow. Cadence yelled, "OMG, that's disgusting! What is she doing??!!?"

The whole house needs to be reno'd, sooooo 2-3 years? Lol. So you won't move until everything is completed? Good call. We'd still like to see pics though. It would definitely be an ongoing project, while we lived there. But picture-wise, there's not much to see right now.

Haha, I figured you would be happy to hear that cagoldi! 😘 And good to know. I didn't realize dairy topped the list. Well, at least 65% (up to 90% in some regions) of the global population is lactose-intolerant so that's a fairly good indication it's not something we're designed to drink past infancy. If it was a requirement that we drink it then clearly so many people wouldn't have a problem digesting it. I doubt anyone wants to go much further with this discussion so I'll just leave it at that. You made me happy on behalf of the mama and baby cows. ❤️ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@melaniesue05 good luck with the house hunt! I must've missed that y'all are moving.
We are renting in VA since we know we'll be leaving in just over 2 years, and have no interest in owning property there long-term. We rented a house sight-unseen (other than the online listing). It looks good and is in a terrific location, but I'm still nervous. Guess we will find out this week whether this was a good decision or not 😬

Just finished with the gym this morning. I officially signed up for my first 5k since high school. It's in November. I was able to complete one at the gym today so hopefully I can continue the progress. Dh is taking LO to daycare and I have to go bra shopping. One of my favorite bras broke last week and I realized it was the only one I had on that color and I wear that color tank/blouse frequently.

Oh and I'll know in 40 minutes if coworker S shows up to work. She told boss b yesterday that it's official she will be missing 1 day of work a week for treatment at least. I wish she could change her days off instead of taking an additional day. But coworker S says she won't do that.

Morning ladies. I'm not all caught up yet but wanted to say hi. I haven't been around much this week because I've been working on an online training that screws up if you try to do anything else on the computer. It's painstakingly slow because it requires a million clicks but there is at least a 30-second (and sometimes several minute) lag between each click. So annoying. Cass' big girl bed arrived yesterday and we were up late setting it up. It looks good but her room looks so grown up now. She started to lose it when I was taking apart the crib (converted to a toddler bed). Maddie was really sweet and comforted her. We said goodbye to her old bed. Letting her ride down the stairs on the crib mattress really did the trick to make her feel better.

Let's just say I have a common post partum issue involving the derriere and am hating life right now.
Also mh went in early and didn't pack js lunch (or tell me) and I almost put his empty bento box in his backpack. I would have died if I had actually sent in a dirty/empty lunchbox to school. Thanks for looking out dude.

My BFF is visiting from FL so we're going out to dinner tonight. I'm more excited than I should be.
We have no plans this weekend so maybe I'll try to do some batch cooking and take the kids to the museum. Not sure yet.

Morning.
MH is off today and I will be taking full advantage. He brought M to school and took my car in for service. When he gets back, I will be heading out for a much needed pedicure. I'll probably go have lunch by myself, too. Much excite.

wedding that sounds like the place I worked before I had H. It was awful working with 3 people who are hostile to you all the time. One of the girls I worked with would complain to my supervisor about me, I think she was trying to get me fired. That's why I got a different job after mat leave. tgrimes what time is H's appt? Can you stop home and grab your phone before going back to work?

tallb call your Dr and get some hydrocortisone suppositories. Gross to put something up there but highly/quickly effective. Godspeed.
