I'm waiting for MH to get home from the gym so I can leave for work, hoping he gets here soon cause I have an early patient I need to see.

Morning girls!
Nothing going on today so I'm hoping to get to the grocery store and to marshals to buy some wrapping paper. I need to lay out all of the kids' gifts this weekend and see if I have any holes anywhere. I figured if they're stretched out and out of bags, I might as well start to wrap.

I'm a troubled sleeper and have been taking Benadryl for years to help. I worry about becoming resistant to it so I bought some melatonin to try last night. I was up all night. It didn't help that Max cried on and off all night. I'm so tired. C got up at 5:30. Hopefully work is busy enough that i don't Fall asleep at my desk.

Morning ladies, crappy start of the day. Dd was up at five, my mom made a comment that hit a nerve (I don’t think she noticed) so I cried on my way to work. It was raining and snowing, so I arrived looking like a icicle. Silver lining? Because of the rain and snow it wasn’t visible that I cried. Currently at work procrastinating, I need to make tons of calls, but my voice is still rough. Can’t wait for tonight, we ordering dinner and watching a movie, classic parent date night 😉.

Sorry for the tough day nam2013. wedding ugh. I’ve had that happen with melatonin before. Usually it works but when I was in Dallas I took a time released tablet. For whatever reason it didn’t work and I was a zombie the next day. I hope tons of coffee helps! Sucks that C is home today but at least Millie has school! I’m holding onto these last days when I’m home alone so tight! I have next week then the first week of January left.

FFFC: Whenever I hear someone from another country talking about some modern day things I always think to myself, "but they're from (blank) country, they don't have that". Like in my head all other countries live in the 1800's or something. Like when vino mentioned using a crockpot or nam2013 mentioned ordering things online, that's my first thought. I realize how incredibly ridiculous this is and obviously quickly correct myself but it's ALWAYS my first thought.

Morning. I hope today is a good day because this was not a good week starting with my dmv debacle on Monday morning through O being sick and Z getting lice. Hopefully i can finish this week on a good note. I still need to go back to the dmv in the next week to get my license though. Ugh.

Morning!
B’s Christmas program at preschool is this morning, then they’re officially dismissed for winter break. Noooooooooooooo. Not that I don’t love the little tyke but it is really early to get out for the holidays, IMO.
This afternoon I need to hit (where else) Dillard’s and try on some riding boots. My old ones have had it so I’m putting some on my Christmas list. Are riding boots still ‘in’? Things to ponder...

It’s my last day of work for a few months!! Right now I’m excited!! But in about 3 weeks when the paycheck doesn’t get deposited I will be depressed. Lol. wedding how many mg did you take? My H takes 5 and is great for him. My dad tried it and it didn’t work. So the next night he took 10 and it was perfect for him.

When I was heavy I had sleep apnea, which I don't have anymore, but I've had trouble my whole life. I've tried ZQuil and other sleep aids to no avail. I'll give the melatonin one more shot but then I'm back to the Benadryl.

What happens if you move somewhere there isn't a Dillards? We don't have those here. And I hope riding boots are still in because I just got some.

Hi everyone. I got into the office a bit early today so I’m happy to leave a bit early this afternoon. Someone also brought in donuts so that was a nice treat.

Morning! I’ll join the rough morning club. I’m taking dh into work tonight since I have to drive back out later for his work Christmas party and we don’t want to have two cars. (Aka, he gets to drink and I get to drive him home!). He’s been super good lately about helping get the kids ready in the morning and last night he made the comment that I should sleep in a little longer because he’d be there even longer to get them all ready to go. So I did and off course when I went down no one was doing anything they were suppose to, kids hadn’t started eating. It’s like he thinks because he’s still physically here he can take his sweet, but no they still need to eat and be ready to leave. So then I got stressed out and started yelling at everyone which I hate, and then dh started yelling which made me mad at him because he doesn’t get to yell when it’s kind of his fault. And then two kids started crying. Grrrr. Anyway, I think we’re ok now. I I made everyone count backwards from 10 and we “started our day over.”

wedding, I hope you are able to get some sleep this wknd. flamingo, I guess you are pretty lucky that you still have a physical Dillard’s where you live. Just being one state north of you, I can tell you there aren’t any (at least not that I’ve seen). nam2013, sorry you had a rough morning. I hope your work day goes by quickly.

So it’s come full-circle. B was invited to a bday party next weekend, and due to other circumstances, I really need to bring C. I am going to email the parents today and ask as well as offer to pay for him. Funnily enough, it’s at the exact same place we had my kids’ party!

weddingWould you consider taking a prescription sleep aid? I’ve always had trouble sleeping and my dr prescribed my something called zapalon and I love it. I sleep like a rock when I take it, but it doesn’t make me drowsy or have any weird side effects. Like I could still wake up in the middle of the night of a kid needed me no problem.

I don't think I've ever been to a Dillard's, maybe once when I was visiting Arizona?
