Y’all are chatty today and I’m struggling to keep up! Work is bananas today. I’m almost at the end of the line though and I’ll be out of here soon-ish.
So when my realtor came by the other day, she wanted my permission to send an email to the realtors at her company about my house to see if they had some buyers interested. With the crazy market she wants to do that first and see if we can avoid 20+ showings a day in the first 48hrs after it hits the market and then having to weed through 15-20 offers. If we don’t get any bites through the people in her company, then we’ll list it next week. I was expecting to hear from her yesterday and never got an email or call, so today I didn’t worry about putting everything away while Intried to get all 3 of us out the door like I did yesterday’s of course she texted me that someone wanted to see the house today. So now I have to run home to put away some stuff we left out in the bathroom and kitchen and get M off the bus so they can come see it. I have 2 showings today. FX we get an offer this weekend. 🤞🏽🤞🏽

vino sorry your H is being selfish, but oh your soon to be freedom! I'm jealous, I really miss my H traveling. tgrimes I'd be pissed too. I hope you hear back from the ENT before the end of the day. I'm so glad it's Friday! There have been a few weird things happen at the new job in the last couple days that make me wonder if it's a good long term fit. I'm not sending my resume out anywhere else, but its definitely got me taking notice of things. I hate this shit.

Oh my goodness, tgrimes . I’m glad someone has an idea but how come no one else mentioned this?!? I have no idea. Especially since we started him in speech with ECI when he was 2, and all of the damn doctor's appointments and different specialists. Augh.

Dammit. tgrimes Also IIRC, didn’t at one point you see some huge hole in his mouth? I may be thinking of something else? Hope the ENT gets back soon? How can they verify that? With a CT it X-ray?

Dammit. tgrimes Also IIRC, didn’t at one point you see some huge hole in his mouth? I may be thinking of something else? Hope the ENT gets back soon? How can they verify that? With a CT it X-ray? sort of. When he was 9 months old, i noticed a big black circle on the roof of his mouth. The pedi was freaked out thinking they missed it all that time and sent me to an ENT. (not the one I currently see) She put a light down up his nose to the back of his throat and mentioned something about being able to see light where you aren't supposed to, but she wasn't a palate specialist. She made me return a few weeks later to meet with the other ENT in that practice who specializes in palates. Of course the black mark was gone then and he stuck his finger on the roof of his mouth and said he was fine. That's not how you would check for this type of cleft though. The hard palate was fine. What concerns me is that I should have pushed them about her seeing light where she didn't think she should. Maybe that was it, you know? Being able to see the light through the soft palate? I don't know. Augh.

tgrimes not in a million years can you ever ‘blame’ yourself for missing something. You have been through so much with him and been an amazing advocate for h’s health. I’m sorry you’re having to deal with this possible curve ball.

I’m sorry you’re having to deal with this possible curve ball. exactly this tgrimes. That's why you take him to specialists. B/c you are not one. You have done everything and more for him than could be expected. I feel so sad for him that he might have to go through yet another surgery. But hopefully, if that is the case, he stops getting sick all the time!

Definitely don't blame yourself tgrimes. You've been advocating for your sweet boy since he was an infant. It would solely be a failure on the medical professionals behalf. I hope you get to the bottom of this soon and H gets a helpful treatment plan.

Good luck lahdeedah! Oh no mwhip! Hopefully any red flags arent anything major. Is there anything specific or just a couple things off? Dont beat yourself up about it tgrimes, you've done everything possible for him, time and time again, its their job to put the puzzle pieces together. I hope you get some answers quickly.

Please don’t blame yourself if this ends up being the case. ETA: lucky to have a mom like you.

I joined Instagram. I know, I know. I blame SweetPotato for sending me a link to someone who does filler. I think I really need it for these ginormous bags under my eyes. Now someone explain to me how to use it like I’m 80. It’s about time!

I have always wanted to be in a flash mob. As a dancer of course. Ok, but if it were you it'd be amazing and not cringy. Let’s not forget what a great singing dancing pair we are!

Hey. Lazy day here. I have to work this weekend so early to bed for me tonight. I’ve been taking the Zoloft for a week now and strangely I haven’t had any side effects. The first time I started it, I had a lot. I wonder if that means the dose is too small, idk I guess I’ll keep taking it and see what happens. tgrimes I’m glad the speech therapist brought it up and I hope that if that’s the cause they can fix it. I don’t blame you for being mad that he may have to have another surgery. You have been an amazing advocate for him. vino sorry for the moody husband.

tgrimes try to breathe. It may not be the palate thing or they already could have checked for that. I’m assuming they haven’t called back? I hope you do hear back soon. If this is the cause than they suck ass, not you!

jewels I would be comfortable with the visitors. CDC has released guidance that vaccinated people can be together indoors without a problem. Maybe that would make your H feel better about it?

I did show MH that. He’s stuck on their age and the fact that they’ll be flying in. I figure we’ll pause on this till we return from vacation and then if he’s still uncomfortable, I’ll tell my nephew no

tgrimes so frustrating but you have gone above and beyond doing what you could to find out what was going on with H. I hope you get answers soon. Today was busy, at work I had 3 classes that were mixed online/remote and it sucks. Then I was rushing to drop off supplies at my student’s houses because their parents are busy but obviously I have plenty of free time and then I had to take DD for a covid test so she can go back to soccer tomorrow (we still never got an answer about whether or not she was a contact) but her test was negative so I’m moving on. We also had our old fence replaced today and it’s so windy, I’m afraid the new one will blow right over. Now it’s spring break so I’m super happy about that.

If this is the cause than they suck ass, not you! They have not called back. Of course this happens on a Friday. It kinda makes me want to TLO my ent and knock on his door tomorrow. But I won’t. (I really want to though.)

So the biggest thing I found out about today, is that no one has received raises in a few years. 1 of the people I was talking to had been there 3 years and hasn't received a raise. Shes in a similar position to mine.
The other thing, our operations manager, who is not my boss, keeps coming by my desk regularly, asking if I have questions, which I keep saying I'm just trying to figure things out. I've told him I don't have questions, but he called me into his office this morning and told me to close the door. He told me some things about the lady training me (she was fired then rehired a few years ago, won't give me all the information I need, etc). Then later, 2 of the other buyers told me information about him.
So basically I'm never going to get a raise and I can't trust anyone. My boss has actually been out since the first day I was there for a family emergency, which kind of makes things worse because I can't really get a good feel for things.

Showings are done. I’m kind of anxiously awaiting feedback. Should my realtor Try to get the feedback and report back to us, or should I ask her? First time selling, so I don’t know how this works.
I’m ready to put my feet up and chill. M has a small outdoor nerf party in the AM, so I can’t even be lazy in the AM. Boo.
