So needless to say I'm odds and ends I'll be stumbling away Slowly learning that life is OK Say after me It's no better to be safe than sorry
Take on me, (take on me) Take me on, (take on me) I'll be gone In a day or two
We're almost there. We can do this.

A and I slept til 9:45 (what!?). He would have been happy still sleeping/laying in his crib but I got him up. We are at a farm and playground now. I'm wondering if I may get lucky with a nap from him too.

I’m just not okay today. Stupid Corona stuff is making me beyond anxious, it caused a spat between me and h that is not resolved because he had to leave and baby girls is refusing to sleep again. I’m just so tired.

Woke up with a very red eye and a kid in my bed. I put drops in my eye and the redness went away, but it's still irritated. My kid joined me at 5 and slept until right before I went out the door to get my allergy shots. Shes wearing me out.

Both the kids I baby sit are terrified of wind, rain, thunder and storms....... found out the hard way at the park. Storm was supposed to come at 4. It came at 2. The wind started blowing and the girl, L, started SCREAMIMG. And the boy, N, was super helpful by yelling "I bet it's a tornado! Its going to flood!!" And then she lost it, tried running to the car screaming and crying. We were all buckled before the rain hit. But then it poured and the boy yelled at me "go go! You have to go!"
They have been so sheltered that they are terrified of so.many.things.

Hi.
I would just like the days to just not go by so fast. I’ve been needing to sort through the last boxes and get a few areas organized, but the hours past by so quick. And if I have to leave the house for any reason, forget it. I should probably try to get up earlier, but I’m usually not falling asleep until 12 or after😬, so I need all the sleep I can get.
M and I went to the gym earlier and he did kid zone while I worked out. I managed to come home and clean out his desk area and get the coat closet organized. I have to leave in 30 minutes to bring the boys to get haircuts.

Hey! It rained all morning so we just hung at home. After lunch I got V down for nap and went out to do some gardening while listening to the 2 new episodes of “your own backyard” podcast. When V wakes we are going to a friend’s house for a play date. nam2013 I’m sorry you’re struggling. Reach out to your midwife, maybe she has some suggestions for your mental health. Happy birthday to M peachsmama!

trtlcrzy it’s a combination of anxiety over my sister coming (or not) total lack of a minute for myself because dd2 is refusing to sleep in the evenings and night (and won’t take a bottle) and soaring numbers again (went up tenfold in a week!). I know I’ll feel a lot better is dd starts sleeping in the evening again (I can deal with the nights) and if my sister gets here.

Seriously just went to give ds a goodnight kiss and he felt warm and has a fever. Since summer holiday starts tomorrow All morning test appointment are booked solid because people need negative tests to travel abroad. Meaning that even if ds turns out negative, which I assume, he won’t be able to say goodbye to his teacher and his classmates.
I’m not even going to start thinking about the chance he’s positive with my sister coming. Tomorrow.

I’m sorry you are struggling nam2013. Deep breaths. Remember that you are awesome and it’s ok to feel bad sometimes. Allow yourself that and see what your H could do to help.

I now have 4 people at work that are expecting babies. That’s a lot for a staff of 25. Sounds like they had more fun in quarantine than I did! We are expecting a ton of rain tonight and tomorrow from Elsa. I’m crossing my fingers that neither us or Cs camp lose power. I was supposed to go jewelry shopping with my neighbor tomorrow but her kids camp already closed for tomorrow. I’m finally going to buy a sapphire ring for my right hand. I found this beautiful one at a local jeweler but I want the sapphire to be bigger. Its estate jewelry so they don’t have that but the owner is reaching out to see if he can find similar with a bigger stone but holding it for me in the meantime. It’s the setting that I love about it. I found a similar one in NYC and we will be there in a few weeks so I may check that too.

@lahdeehdah maybe you already told us, but how was your fun date with M?! It was good! We had fun. He asked to go back today. Ha. We went to Target first for something and ended up getting his school supplies. I think that was my favorite part. Lol. I forgot how fun it is to shop for school supplies since I got the kit sent to school the past 2 years. And now he wants to pick out his backpack, so I have to find some options for him soon.
