Wednesday WTFs

[NamasteBirches]

My crazy kid got up at 3am this morning & flat out refused to go back to bed. 
Not only that, he was being a loud ass mofo in the living room while DH & I were trying to sleep more.



I am planning to go back to bed once his butt gets on the bus. We'll see if I can actually fall asleep. I hope so.

Passes NamasteBirches all the coffee!!! This was DD on Sunday, it was a long day.

We are going to see a mortgage broker this afternoon, getting serious about house shopping.

Yikes NamasteBirches! That is worse that what I dealt with this morning. DD woke up at 5:00 saying she had a bad dream. She crawled into bed with me but did not go back to sleep. Hopefully it doesn't cause her to be miserable at school.

Last night while ToTing, I got a notification that DS' teacher was going to be out. I thought about taking the job for a sec but thank jebus I didn't. DH was all "take it, take it" but I'm pretty sure I'd be voiding it this morning after the morning we had.
&+ also, I'm sure they would have screwed me anyways & tell me I couldn't take it anyway since my kid is in the class or some other bs reason. They already screwed me out of two jobs I booked the week of thanksgiving right before the break at the middle school. I got an email from the tech guy saying the administration gave it to someone else. I said "why? they were my jobs. I rightfully claimed them." The speculation is that they hired a building sub & I'm guessing the guy whined about the fact that he didn't get to it in time so they gave it to him. It should be you snooze you lose but I guess they can just do whatever they want so I wouldn't be surprised if they prevented me from subbing DS' class & wait to tell me when I would have gotten there this morning anyways or something rude like that.
I'm just done.
Like DS is being a mess, these people are being the worst. I need to crawl underneath my bed & go back into hiding again.

Oof, sorry for the rough morning, NamasteBirches. Hope you get a nap later!

I'm at work, it's just a pretty normal Wednesday here, except my house is a mess because I didn't feel like cleaning much after the TOT fun last night. The first thing DS told me this morning when I went to get him up was he had a bad dream about a lion chasing him. I feel bad, I think he's inherited my vivid imagination/vivid dreams. But once he finally fell asleep last night, he slept like a rock, so obviously it didn't bother him that much I guess.

jillywilly, glad the bad dream didn't bother him to much. DD struggles with bad dreams and I too feel bad she inherited that from me. It takes a lot to get her back to sleep when she has one. It's rough. I hope your DS continues down the dreams don't bother him path!

Ridley's still sick and we've mostly just been fussing and cuddled up on the couch watching Puffin Rock. She slept like shit last, so I'm happy for the relatively easy morning.

I'm at a training.

My sister is supposed to bring over Jackson's birthday cake at some point today. His birthday is tomorrow. I still feel a little guilty for not making it myself, but she seemed pretty happy to help at least. I told her to just have fun with it, so I have no idea what to expect.

What a day! The day after Halloween in preschool is something!

I'm so exhausted! We're going to have a lazy evening after DSs ceramics class this afternoon. Early to bed for us!

That is the worst NamasteBirches. Hope you got a nap in.

DD had fun ToTing with her friends last night. She got scared from the decorations at the last house, but overall she did great.
I've been putting Halloween Gushers in DD's lunchbox for a week, and today I put a Tootsie Roll in there. We have candy pouring from the kitchen cabinets so that might be a way to get it out without me needing to buy new pants.

Thanks! We've had a few nights here or there where he's woken up crying where I've wondered if it was a bad dream or not, but he's just now closing in on 2 1/2, so I think he's just really starting to be able to understand the concept and verbalize to us if they scare him. I've had super vivid dreams ever since I can remember, especially nightmares, so I'm hoping they're not something he has to deal with too much!

who knows an easy way to make a video of pictures? kind of like an automatic slideshow? I used to know how but I'm drawing a blank of what I used in the past (especially since we did this to announce our pregnancy to family.) everything I'm trying requires subscriptions & is not free. I'm feeling dumb right now.

Maybe Google Photos. I've never tried, but it auto creates slide shows using my pictures all the time.
