I'm so happy and relieved to know that you'll be safe, but my heart sank thinking about how much longer you'll be away from the littles. I know you're there for your family right now, but is there any chance you can do something for yourself while you have the ability to? I haven't had my phone much this week so I was shocked to turn it on this morning and see how bad things look like they could get. I hope your and classymrsa 's family are safe and sound throughout the whole thing.

My H went to school in Miami. I should video tape his hurricane anxiety next time an east coast storm hits.
We have five battery packs to charge electronics, dozens of candles, 10+ battery operated lanterns, at least 50 gallons of gas for the generator, and a good six month supply of disgusting freeze dried space food. Homeboy does not play with Mother Nature.

I'm not sure if I ever really mentioned it, but after a strong start with eating at around 4 months M kind of starting hating all solids a few months ago. Her 'loving' something meant maybe 1/3 of a puree pouch or a tbs of solids cut up. She was always a fan of puffs and cheerios but even those would get snubbed after about a dozen or so. Some weeks she'd go days without anything but breastmilk. It didn't bother me too much. I'd just chant "food before one is just for fun," and KOKO even though it was annoying AF to waste so much food and I didn't really know what I was doing wrong.
Well. She started eating this past weekend. Every meal and snacks in between. And I'm a dumbass. Did I think going 0-60 wouldn't hurt her already super sensitive belly? Nope. She got so constipated that she ended up getting an impaction yesterday into today. It's been a day. Poor thing is on nap number three currently which tells you all how much sleep we all got last night.
Coffee, please.

His therapy went really well today but he's still a bit disoriented and they think he'll need another transfusion. He'll be moving to acute rehab probably tomorrow so his therapy will be more intense. Thanks for asking.

@soohiegrace I'm sorry about M's impaction. Poor girl. IIRC H's constipation got this bad too, right? I hope it's still not this bad of an issue. Because, shittttt....literally.

Hi. PW here.
DH informed me tonight he has off until September 5th! I cannot contain my excitement. We have so much fun stuff planned. I'm totally psyched. Oh and an extra set of hands for the next 10 days doesn't hurt either. It's almost September and the guy has taken 4 days off all year.

I won't go into the details of what I had to go through with my dad's insurance today, but he has been approved for acute rehab for 7-10 days. He will either be discharged today or in the morning. It's just across the hall so it's not like we'll be going far.

sophiegrace I'm sorry about M's tummy troubles. But I am happy to hear someone else's baby doesn't/ wasn't eating! Like 3 meals to not even finish one pouch. She ate half one at dinner tonight and I was so excited!! Glad to hear acute rehab is starting tomorrow tgrimes! Hope you all in the hurricanes path stay safe and dry!

Poor M! sophiegrace Sorry you've been dealing with that. Hopefully this weekend her little system can reset. Enjoy the extra time with your H waitwhat! Sounds like a much-deserved break.

I got a nap in this afternoon and it was so nice. It's been awhile.
My parents shipped us a Belgian waffle maker as a 'housewarming gift' (my parents got one for the vacation house and Dad made waffles several times while we were there, so B is now hooked) and it arrived today. I think we're going to break it in tomorrow morning and then do yard work.
Is it sad that we finished dinner an hour ago and I'm already looking forward to breakfast? LMK.

Had an office team building get together tonight. I had two orange crushes and my face is numb. I was talking and knew I was drunk but couldn't stop the words from coming out. I think H thinks he getting lucky. I think I'm going to bed early.

The Firefly distillery is in Charleston. That + lemonade was the signature cocktail at our wedding

I'm annoyed. It's been so long since I've had more than just wine that I can't even tell the difference between being buzzed and drunk. Seriously. By the time I got home I was sober as could be. I wonder what will come first: H and I hiring a babysitter so that we can go out on a solo date or M reaching the age where we trust her home alone.
