Morning!
I am standing in line for camp registration. I feel like I’m camping out for tickets lol. It opens at 8 and I’ve been here since 6:40 and I am not at the front of the line. It’s starting to rain now so hopefully they open the line early.
What’s everyone else up to today?

I should be getting ready for work but I’m not. It’s C’s day off today so he’s cleaning the fish tank and hopefully the house. He’ll pick up the kids from school and meet me at Disneyland. We are hoping to see Santa and take photos. I’m also hoping to find out what E wants from Santa. She’s been very weird about it. Then dinner a couple of rides then home. I was hoping to take them on small world holiday but it won’t be open now.

Wow, jewels!! That reminds me of a preschool by me. People get there at like 4am! G did it to get L in and then of course COVID hit and we didn't even send her. |

Not much going on today. I have a massage. I think I'll go to TKD beforehand for some extra stretching.
These past few weeks have been so insane I'm looking forward to a quiet day.

So hard to get out of bed today. Only thing that made me get up was knowing next week is a short week. And bills. I have to pay bills.

I called the mammogram place again this morning and still got no where. My coworker told me to just go to the location and tell them I'm not leaving till I receive it. Lol. I called my OBGYN (they're in the same building) and talked to the nurse about it. She was so sweet and told me she'd take care of it. Three minutes later she calls me back and says I can pick it up anytime after 12 today. After I professed my love for her, I got a call from the nurse at the breast surgeon's office. She even gave me her direct line and said to contact her if i had any issues getting my images/reports from the mammogram place.  |

Glad they're getting their shit together tgrimes . It's just ridiculous how hard this was. It literally takes 3 min to put images on a cd, not 3-7 days. The first person at the mammography place I spoke to on Friday said I'd probably need to reschedule my appt with the surgeon. WTF. |

They should be able to send PDF files in a few seconds. They know what's at stake and how it will put everything off for you. Stress has real negative impacts on a person's health and no reason to make a difficult issue even more challenging. |

Morning. The girls were fighting the entire time before they left for school. S walked to the bus crying. I was so glad to get them out of my house. I’m hoping to be able to just chill today. I do need to run to Costco after V wakes up from her nap. H has asked for American girl doll stuff for her birthday and they have a set I think she’d like.

I was ecstatic to send the boys to school today. J's behavior has been absolutely insane lately. I told Alex, I'm about to pay for all day kinder to give us more time apart...
Then I loaded zorro up for his grooming appointment. But that jackass dog rolled in something AWFUL 2 minutes before we had to leave so now my car reeks. Mal and I went to target and spent a fortune. Then to ups to drop off Amazon returns. Now waiting on J. Gotta feed lunch quick and go get the dog. Busy day.
I need to meal plan and make a grocery order.
Tomorrow is my science event at school that I chair. So I'm hoping it goes well. I'll be relieved when it is over.

At my job in AL, it was on us(the techs) to fill the request for CDs and sometimes we couldn’t get to it at the moment it was handed to us, but most of the time it would be done in a couple hours. |

It’s starting to rain now so hopefully they open the line early. What’s everyone else up to today? Like camp for summer 2022?? My word. Hope you got the boys signed up. So I normally do camp through the program that B is in for DC and S is in for aftercare, but it's kinda just like day care but as a camp. No real structure. Sign up for that was online at 9 AM this morning. I was signing B up for the whole summer and S up for a few weeks. However, I wanted to try a better camp for S for a few weeks and that was in person about 15 minutes away at 8 AM. However, that is only for new slots - everyone who went last summer had the opportunity to sign up at the end of camp. I was #14 so hopefully we got in. But they won't tell us for a month. If not I signed up for the other camp as a backup and for the other weeks. Camps in Jersey are serious business. I am not looking at the pricey camps but some were upwards of 7-8K for the summer. For Day camp. Insane. |

Morning.
Such a busy morning. I had a few stops to make after dropping off M2 and still have more errands to run later. I am enjoying the day to myself after having my mom here all last week and spending 4 days all together this weekend. It was fun, but now I need a day alone.
I’m getting frustrated with work. Or lack thereof. I wasn’t scheduled at all the last two weeks and was supposed to work tomorrow, but she texted me at like 730 this morning to say not to come in. She was apologetic and I get it because the department is slow, but damn. She told me last week they have been really slow because the hospital is full with little turnover. Even the FT people are having to flex out a lot. It sucks because when I’m not working I get anxious about not having spending money. That’s very much a first world problem because we are fine financially and it’s just a me thing about having to really watch what I’m spending. I feel silly complaining about it, but I’m seriously about to look for a side hustle.
I’m supposed to be FT for 4 months in the spring, but now I’m second guessing that and wondering if I should be paying attention to job postings.

I'd be stressed too if I were you lahdeedah. It's nice that you have the flexibility, but I would want something to consistently plan on. Especially with the holidays coming up. |

I'm at work. My kid ran and jumped into my bed at 2am and wanted to sleep clinging to me the rest of the night....damn bad dreams again.
Got an appt with my gp, but not until the first week of Dec. I joined the waitlist and messaged her asking if there were any tests or blood work I could do in the meantime to speed up the whole process.
Tried emailing Cadence's teacher and it bounced back twice, had mh try and same thing. Her classmate's mom texted me her cell number so I could get the info to her. I mean, she kind of needs to know I'm picking Cadence up early today and that Tuesdays she now has an art class after school and doesn't go to aftercare until afterwards. I haven't heard back.
Tonight we have Book Fair, so I'll take Cadence to that. Today was pajama day and tonight's book fair event is a "pajama party", but Cadence refused. She didn't want to be the only one to show up in pajamas since most of the kids don't participate in the theme days.

Good news! The guy came and got the garage door, and he was very quick. I’m waiting on V to wake up so I can run my errands before I need to be back home for the big girls. H has a haircut after school that I just remembered was scheduled so I really can’t be late getting back.

After dropping everyone off I went to Home Depot for a couple bags of dirt to fill the holes Lola has dug. Then I saw the holiday decorations and walked it with a whole new look for this years lights. I might try to string them up later since others have theirs out and I like to have them as long as possible. It’s weird to do so though because usually the trees are bare but this year the leaves really just started falling a couple of weeks ago so my stuff will get covered in leaves.
After that my friend called me and she decided not to go to work today after sitting in an hour of traffic and moving three miles so we met for breakfast instead. Then I napped. Tomorrow is my last day of this glorious staycation. 😩

So Friday school drop off was horrible. L didn't want to go. Couldn't get her to the bus stop so drove them. She cried and begged not to go the whole time and it took me and 3 teachers to get her out of the car and into school. This morning was similar. A teacher had to pry her off of me and carry her in while she just sobbed. I felt awful. Once she gets there she has a great day though. Praying tomorrow is better.
