My contractor had to add more to our contract to satisfy the bank. He replied with "See the attached document. I have never had this many issues with any other bank" Yes I know, my bank is a fucking unicorn that makes everything 10 times harder than it needs to be. And he warned me about using them. I should of listened.

First day of training. Since the girl who is leaving starts at 6 I have to start at 6 so I've been up since 415 because I had to go get gas. I'm so tired.

chrisy01 I'm tired JUST thinking about getting up at 4:15! I was filling out a job application for the company I have the phone interview with tomorrow and one of our engineers stopped and talked to me. Fortunately he didn't come to my desk, so I doubt he could really tell what it was. I should be more careful I guess. Even though my IDGAF factor is sky high today.

Morning! I️ meant to check back in yesterday but I️ pretty much collapsed when I️ got home home from the field trip. It was fun but EXHAUSTING! kim22 I️ don’t know how do it, I️ felt like I️ spent most of the day guarding my belly from little heads running straight into it! Nothing much today. Hitting the gym and then I️ have to get my house clean because fil is coming into town tomorrow so we can go to or friends funeral. I️ also have my three hour glucose test tomorrow so I’m eating super healthy today, and of course all I️ want is a big Starbucks and a donut!! |

I fell asleep at 8 last night. I meant to just lay down for a minute and the next thing I know it was 3am. DH took care of all wake ups last night and at some point he brought S into my bed because I was awoken by her head butting me in the forehead. S has developed a cough too. H has school this afternoon, otherwise not much planned.

Morning! Sorry for the lack of sleep snoopmommymom! How’s things going at the new job? Has the girl that was all up in your business backed off? ?? For you all....our babysitter/nanny who has been with us since S was about 8 months old is graduating from nursing school with her LPN next month. She will be continuing on to get her RN. Do I get her a gift? She’s not having a graduation party or anything. And if yes, thoughts/ideas? For reference: she’s like family. S is going to be a flower girl in her wedding next May. She started out working just occasionally for us, then went away to college for a year. During that time she babysat occasionally when she was home on weekends. She transferred to a local school and moved back home and worked full time for us for a while. Then got into nursing program and had to leave us for a while. At that time we bought her a congratulations on nursing school/thanks for being a great babysitter gift of a Littmann Stethoscope, which is a high end stethoscope that was like $100. Then she started working weekends for us again. Right now we are only using her “as needed” because I am not working weekends till next summer again. Sooooo, all that in mind WWYD? Gift or no? If gift, any ideas? Or just the college student favorite...cash. |

lfig definitely would buy a present. Maybe a small personalised necklace with her initials and/graduation date? Etsy has very cute ones.

yummeecookee, That's a tough one, but I don't think I'd say anything. I think pointing it out to her would make it more obvious and kids just don't tend to notice those things like adults do.

Maybe with a card that S "signs" for her since they are close. |

I think my IDGAF scale is even lower than yesterday. Especially after getting here this morning and finding all the front row parking spots empty, which is weird. Our production crew starts at 5:30, and they were all parked in the back of the parking lot, which was weird. I found out that some of the office staff complained about a loud car and the product crews radios when they go on brake, so the production manager told them not to park in the front spots. How are we more important than them? They arrive when it's dark, I come and go when it's light out, so I'm not worried about my safety.
But of course I parked in one of the front spots, but I'm seriously about to get up an move to the back of the lot as well.

I have a question too- PDQ snip WWN13D? I think I wouldn't point it out, with S, if I point it out, then it's something he'd look for, and more likely comment. If she says something, I would just respond quickly by saying how beautiful the little girl is or something. There is a little girl in the class below S (who often joins his class). For some reason she just never really grew hair, and is pretty bald (at 2.5 y/o). S plays with her often, and as far as I can tell has never noticed, or said anything about it. It's just his friend A. |

Is C doing Tower of Terror? If not, look if they do single rider. It's an easy way to bypass the line. |

He is planning to do ToT. So brave! Does he meet the height requirements? Check all that before you go. C1 was not happy to get to the front of the line and be turned away. I wish I would have measured him before. |

yummeecookee, that's so hard! I'd probably talk to her before about how everyone looks different (and mention different ways) and that's what makes everyone unique and special. I don't think I'd mention the little girl specifically.

Cher one more question. When it's ok to book fast passes I can do it through the app? Do I just click Fast Pass+? Or will a new icon show?

Morning!
DH started his 4-day wknd today so he took B out to the trampoline park while C naps. The house is quiet and I’m getting some stuff done.
I came down with a stomach bug really suddenly yesterday afternoon; so weird. I think I’m over the worst but am now in that afraid-to-eat-anything stage.
