Thanks! How's childcare going? Anything new? So he's been consistently going on the potty and his primary daycare. He's had some good days and bad. We haven't gone to the backup care lady just because we haven't needed to. I have noticed his bad days seem to happen when she has both the babies are there.

cagoldi today someone at work had these delicious smelling/looking microwavable vegan pepperoni pizza dumplings. I need more information about buying such a thing and of course today was her last full day at work. Have you ever come across this product?

Yup. It's a robot crib. The idea is it goes through all the needs that don't require you: swaddling, shushing, rocking, etc. If the baby is still crying after that, you get up and feed or change the diaper.
I will pay a lot of money to avoid getting up if I have don't have to.

xolastunicornxo - no you don't need to wear mascara at all when you have them. tgrimes - my place charges 175 for the full set and 50-75 for a fill, depending on how many lashes you need, ie. how long its been since your last fill/set. That's really good for a fill! My place is really pricey but I can't quit her. She does such a good job.

chrisy01 I hope his fever breaks soon. Interesting/probably not coincidental that the rough days are when she has the two babies in her care--I can imagine she is stretched thin at those times and probably has less patience. lfig enjoy your 'day of beauty' tomorrow lahdeedah that's awesome that M1 is doing so well with swim lessons, and hilarious that he is quick to notice the other kids messing around. nam2013 I haven't been around much either but I'm sorry things have been so rough for miss J. I hope she has turned a corner for good and isn't in pain at night any more. Poor girl.

To add to our list of July house woes, the shut off valve on our basement toilet won't stop leaking even after we tightened all of the nuts. The plumber is coming out tomorrow morning.

Cadence ran out of the dc at pickup today. She normally runs ahead of me, but stops and waits at the water fountain in the lobby. Well, a Dad came in and let her out. Wtf, dude? Why would you hold the door for a kid that is by themselves? She can't open the door on her own. I did reprimand her, because she knows she isn't supposed to go out without me, but I'm pissed at the dude too.

I can't tell you how many times adults have let C out or left the gate open seeing he is ten feet behind. Then I'm sprinting and yelling like crazy. C can open the gate and doors but it buys me time people! As the mother of a runner this along with the people who don't shut the gates at playgrounds are huge pet peeves.

C is in bed. He had a rough afternoon. I'm working tomorrow and Dh is staying home. I'm going to bed by 9 though because I'm exhausted.

Wtf at letting unaccompanied kids out! C's class all meets in the room across the hall until enough kids show up to split rooms. Once C and I were putting stuff away in his room (dark room and we were the only ones in there) and a dad came in, left his kid in there and left the building! It was pretty clear I was a parent and not teacher. The poor kid didn't want to walk with me and just stood there crying until I got help.

I have to bitch. I've been lazy about leaving my room in the evening. It gets dark early here and is kind of chilly in the evening. Plus all the buildings look alike so I can see myself getting lost on a walk. So I've been a slug in my room doing homework and exercise videos.
Tonight I went outside just to talk to my husband because there's no cell reception in the building. Some guy watched me when I came out and motioned me over to visit on my way back in. I'm trying to not be such an introvert and get to know other people in the course. It became apparent he was seeing if I would be a willing participant in screwing around with him after I told him I was married. Then he went on to joke about transgender people being kicked out of the military and how he hates always having briefs about sexual harassment/assault. Fucking douche. It's always a real turn on when a bigot hits on a married woman. *Eye roll* This just confirms my desire to hole up in my room when class is over.

Hey guys...so I suck. Work has been kicking my ass. Life has been kicking my ass. I just couldn't keep up and feel like an asshole just jumping in. I need to go back and read what you ladies have been up to the last month. I miss everyone of you. I'll try to be better! But we leave for vacation to the lake Friday in northern Arkansas where coverage is sketchy anyway. I promise...I'll be back. Like I told tgrimes I can not quit you guys!

csho Tofurkey has some hot pockets that fit that description so so my guess is that's what she had. I didn't care for them. They weren't inedible, just something I probably wouldn't buy again. I was just looking at a recipe to make a homemade knockoff version last night, I'll let you know how they turn out if I try it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So two things:
Daycare wants to move Atticus to Pre-K in a couple weeks. I'm not ready for that but he said he is.
Also, the biopsy did indicate I have hidradenitis suppurativa. So no lupus, but an entirely different autoimmune issue. One that is intractable and has crappy treatment options. My dermatologist doesn't know what to do yet anyway since we can't rule out lupus until my Immunologist is done with all his tests.
It's a start. At least I know what's going on but it's kind of shitty knowing they might not be able to do much for me.

Charlie just spent the last 45 minutes screaming. Josie slept through it all. Mh and I tried everything, but he just wanted to sit in bed with us. He's finally back in his crib. I'm guessing teeth, but I don't understand why he'd be so calm with us and so apocalyptic otherwise.

Gross inthekitty, what an ass cagoldi I'm glad you're getting some answers back from the tests, hopefully by the end of Aug they'll have some sort of plan. I'm sorry you have to go through all of this, I'm sure it's frustrating.

Those sound delicious. I think I need the recipe. So we use vegan honey, of course, but other than that nothing changed. I do have to caution against using butter on the griddle because it changes the taste completely. She says to use cooking spray which did work out much better (I tried both ways). minimalistbaker.com/mini-sopapilla-pancakes/Yum. The only thing I don't have is the vegan butter. I hope regular butter does well. I do have ghee, but not sure if that would be a good substitute. Will be trying these this weekend.

The woman who does this site is plant-based, not vegan (which explains the honey), so she just avoids dairy for health reasons. I'm sure if she were eating dairy that regular butter would have been in the recipe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
