I think it was me. And they're all the way in the back of the drawer and I never tried them. Probably a waste of $30. Can you please try? I want to order some for DD and I need more reviews. I volunteer to try flex disc. Has anyone tried that? I will next month! What's flex disc? I did try a cup (is that what it's called?) and hated it!

I talked to C about the biting. The other kid threw his crayons and that’s why he bit. After my talk, I asked what he can do next time and he replied “no bite, just fight” 😂😂😂

Hi from home again. We flew back up early this morning and I was sad to go but so happy to be home. I was bunking with my Mom, who basically has PTSD from spending the last month or so trying to keep my Dad (who could no longer walk) from wandering out of bed at night. Everytime I would roll over or make a peep, she'd bolt up asking if I was okay. I don't think she was actually waking up because she'd be back to sleep immediately, but I was surely awake. She also talked in her sleep a ton. I didn't say anything because she would feel horrible, but I am so tired after 6 nights of that!
We got a lot done. His borrowed medical equipment was returned to various places, a few items were listed for sale, clothes were packed away, random donations delivered, obit written, calls made, and lots of discussions were had about her finances. We also ate and drank a ton, so I feel pretty gross on top of exhausted. I'm glad we went. Now she has about a week to settle in being solo (aside from a parade of friends checking in on her) before heading up for Thanksgiving, which seems reasonable.

I'm glad you were able to be with her and help her joelies. That sounds exhausting for sleep. Hopefully she can sleep peacefully alone after getting used to it.

I did try a cup (is that what it's called?) and hated it! Something that comes up on my Facebook ads. I guess it’s the same idea as a cup but it’s flat and it’s disposable. I have zero chance to go to the bathroom at my new job and have bleed threw an ultra tampon every single month so I need a new plan. I’m thinking I’ll try it overnight first and remove in the shower in the morning.

And I had my first biting incident in my class this week and spent 30 minutes calming down the mother of the biter and now I have to calm down myself. I was not prepared in my new job for the amount of parenting advice the parents ask for. I’m a pretty experienced parent but I still feel like I’m mostly winging it and barely surviving.

I forgot to mention that my in-laws are so worried about my Mom. DH told them she's coming for Thanksgiving so they have been here every day this week FINISHING the Murphy bed and patching up the hole in the wall!

C didn’t put dexter in his room properly and he escaped. He got into C’s dark chocolate covered oranges. Unsure when this happened so I don’t know if dexter is going to be okay. Based on what I read there is not much the vet can do unless we take him in within an hour of ingesting. I don’t want to take him now because I would have to bring the kids with. It honestly could have happened 10 hours ago and I wouldn’t have know because C wouldn’t let me put a monitor in his room.

Besides this it’s been a really crappy day. I was hoping to come home do homework and get to bed but instead I’ve been cleaning up chocolate dog vomit. And the kids still aren’t in bed and homework hasn’t been touched. I needed to step away for a few minutes so I didn’t have a mental breakdown.

chrisy01, I hope he's okay! River got into a huge block of chocolate years ago. We got home at like 2am from the bar and walked into tons of dog puke and diarrhea. We took him to an emergency vet and they gave him a water shot (???) Basically fluids that formed a big lump and slowly hydrated him I think? Like I said, years ago and just home from the bar. Anyway, we probably didn't need to take him in and obviously he was fine. He's a big dog and has gotten into basically everything though and is always fine.

C got home and took over dexter watch. He called his sister who is a vet tech who told him to give dexter activated charcoal pills and unflavored Pedialyte. A few hours later he seemed to be normal but we have to get him bland chicken and rice for a few days.
We are both so tired and L just woke me up. I sent him back to his room for 30 more minutes since E is still sleeping.

I thought it was already done. I’m so sorry you’re dealing with all this.
