I worked 6-2 today then I ran to FedEx to pick up my wine and Walgreens to basically buy stock in cold meds.
Currently sitting in silence drinking tea before my mom comes home with the kids in 10 mins.
Peapod between 4 and 6.
I wish I could get a sick day or 2 to sweat this shit out.

Anyone use a netipot? H has one. Can I sanitize it and use his? Is that gross?
I never used one before but I feel like it might help with all this sinus pressure and stuffiness.

jedi I'm answering over here. It does seem like M wakes up somewhat in a tantrum. I don't have a video monitor, so I don't usually know he is awake until he is crying (and I would say 90% of the time he wakes up he starts crying to let us know he is awake...like very rarely will he wake up and just call for us). I hadn't considered that the transition from being asleep to being awake could be what is causing it. I don't think it is something like night terrors, as he sleeps solid....knocks on wood...Was there anything that you did with your son that seemed to help once you figured that out? Also sorry your speaker did not work out.

I don't have issues with germs but I straight up used my MIL's after just rinsing haha. So I think it's fine. The one she has is a squirt bottle and it barely touches anyway.

Betweenthelines, I use a netipot. I think if you sanitize your H’s, it’s not gross at all. It should definitely give you some sinus relief.

I've been slammed with work, and trying to be more present at home in the evenings, so I'm dirty lurking more lately. I'm about to head to pick M up from daycare, and then stop at the post office. My online shopping has been a bit out of control lately, and I keep getting random packages, that I sometimes remember ordering, sometimes not. lol. I think my two package slips are from Just Fab (damn you just fab for having boots 2 for $50....and I also ordered a pant suit and a jacket....hopefully I like them). I also ordered new bras from a random facebook ad...knixwear....that was totally random. I hope they are okay. Ha! Tonight we are going to look for appliances for the new house and then just chill

Ok, germs don't really bother me either lol. I just didn't know if that was super gross. I'm going to try it tonight.

Still having nanny issues and we transitioned back in august for goodness sakes. It's just Abigail, the big kids are fine with her so I don't worry that something terrible is happening when I'm gone but Abigail is really struggling with the transition. Daily. It's so stressful. She's been asking for our old nanny every day over and over when it gets to be time for new nanny to arrive. Lately it's crying and saying she misses old nanny. This is breaking my heart and I also know it's not fun for new nanny to hear all this. We still see old nanny because she babysits and fills in when new nanny can't be there. This just sucks and I don't know what to do. Old nanny coming back isn't an option because she's in a full time school program now which is the reason for the transition.

Betweenthelines, I'm curled up over here with my netipot and a cup of hot honey lemon water.... Definitely try the netipot. My favorite combo used to be: Aleve-D, netipot, short run, hot steamy shower. Pretty much in that order. Then I was feeling like a million bucks. Now I'm a little more limited b/c I'm not running anymore with the pregnancy and all and clearly I can't take the Aleve-D. But that stuff is the bomb. There was a wicked cold being passed around at E's day care this week, so he and I have been sick. But he is a lot less snotty today so I am hopeful I will be better soon too. A couple of the kids went to the doc though and no strep or anything, just seems like some kind of virus or something. In good news, he slept in his bed all night last night! First time in a few weeks, I'd say. I cranked the heat up in there last night so I don't know if that was coincidence or cause and effect but I will certainly try again tonight. He has always liked warmth for sleeping but won't tolerate any blankets... I might not participate much but I lurk. Hard. 28 weeks now. Still feeling pukey on the daily but that seems to be due to reflux so meds and Tums it is. Also starting to feel bigger and bigger by the day, somehow.

Also kiddo is getting more into coloring and drawing.
I have a lovey piece of artwork on my bedroom wall done in eyebrow pencil, courtesy of kiddo.

Hi everyone! I’m in a plane en route to Austin right now. MH and P are with me. I have a work event tomorrow, and then we are going to drive to San Antonio, where SIL and BIL live, and stay through Thanksgiving. This is my first time going to Texas— it should be fun! Well when are you coming to my house (or at least out to something)?

redandblue because it was happening at naps and he was 4 we just stopped naps. It never happened in the morning. We also don’t have a video monitor so we didn’t know if he was awake prior. I did record it once and they said it looked like a night terror but it was weird because it was at nap when generally those are overnight. We really just had to wait it out when it happened

Give ‘em hell @gironabike! Seriously, they should be embarrassed that they are too lazy to walk and so their very pregnant supervisor then has to.

My toddler is being extra toddler-ish today. ‘That’s mine, not yours’. ‘No no no,’. Whining. We’re going to get out of the house for a local pre-holiday prominade event. I’m so irritable so I hope it helps.
