We got next to no sleep past night. I don't know why this kid keeps waking up all night long. So he was cranky this morning which made my workout super difficult. But its done. He's finally asleep and I'm afraid to put him down but I know I need to. I could really use a bottle, I mean glass, of wine right about now.

I'm back in the office today. My whole week is thrown off after personal time, working from home and volunteering. I don't even remember what I'm doing.
I'm hungry...

Also my boss contacted me yesterday. She is doing up the fall schedule and wanted to know if I needed my days split again (our schedule goes: work 7, off 2, work 3, off 2, repeat. But you can request to split your 7, you just lose your consecutive days off: work 3, off 1, work 4, off 2, work 3, off 1, repeat), and wanted to confirm my back to work date. I haven't told them yet that I plan to resign my full time status and go part time, or that I plan to take an additional few months off.

I have zero motivation to do anything today. I just put J down and I really want to sit on the couch and watch trashy reality tv but I can't because toddler. And he wants to play legos, then playdoh, then cars, then blocks.
I don't want to adult today.

I know but I'm nervous about saying anything too soon incase they manage to mess up my benefits or incase DH stops gettin called and I have to change my plan. I did tell her my tentative return date (end of mat leave) and that I'm trying to figure out all my options and will give her notice of any change in plans. So kind of a heads up without showing all my cards.

Did I miss this? I may not have talked about it on here. Saturday we're going to Destin for a week. My in laws rented a beach house and part of our Christmas present was airline tickets so i didn't have to drive with 2 kids over there. The week after that I fly to California, by myself, for my dad's surgery.

Morning. It's raining so our plans to go to the fair aren't going to happen. I'm disappointed. Since I didn't really have a backup plan, H is all, let's just have a relaxing day. Says the guy currently snoring on the couch while the kids crawl on me. Sure...relaxing...fucker just doesn't get it.

Lillian was being suspiciously quiet while I was nursing Lilah. She said she was going potty. Instead, she comes out saying she put on "cream." Walk into her room and there's literally piles of Vaseline covering about 2 square feet of her room. Um....ok.

Hope you enjoy your trip tgrimes! We're planning to take a vacation in September but we have zero plans right now. Probably should figure that out soon.

She's taking a few things for us, like the car seats, M's puddle jumper, etc. She said, what I'm mainly concerned about is having enough room for all the wine. Have I mentioned how much I love my in laws?

Gahhh spiders jubilantsquirrel. Burn the place down and send them back to hell where they came from. You need the whole bottle danib. Some days it's just really really hard waitwhat. I wish I would have sat in silence doing absolutely nothing more before M got here. Hate packing tgrimes. I think I'd almost prefer a Pedi appt over that. Almost. Your in laws are THE BEST. Christmas presents to make your life easier? They sound like magical fairies. tjanca22 H is really good at the relaxing days too. I can't imagine just being able to turn it off in the middle of the day anymore. OMG classymrsa. O.M.G.

Seriously classymrsa, if your mom is anything like mine, give her that Vaseline project and she will knock it out! Or, is it easier to clean that while she manages the 2 kids? Either way, glad you're getting help today! tgrimes as per, your vaca with the ILs sounds delightful! danib anything new with YH's job? Has he been called regularly? waitwhat you were me yesterday. So I just left the tv on for my own piece of mind yesterday. A bit of a compromise while still playing with the kid. jubilantsquirrel is there anything good for lunch today to salvage this day???

hangry he went out on one rig for a week, came home for a week, and is doing 3 weeks on another rig right now. He doesn't have anything lined up yet for after that (gets home on the 21st) but hopefully he'll get another call. He said it's unlikely he'll get offered anything fulltime within the next few months, but as long as the calls keep coming we can wait it out.
