Spouse has had a cold all weekend.

I had a dream that was full of stress and I was woken up mid-dream so I felt like I didn’t actually sleep. I don’t know what in my life my subconscious was trying to process with that dream. The event the dream was sort of about doesn’t even happen till January and is just going to be an outing with friends kind of thing, not a Big Event With Fancy Dress (in the British sense) that was in my dream.

I would like a crystal ball or some other kind of message from the future to tell me if I will actually use a bike and trailer to do things with kiddo and thus it’s good to spend more money now on good products or if it’ll be a nice idea for a few months and then it will fizzle out so the cheap stuff I’m looking at will be just fine. Or it will happen twice in which case I might as well not spend the money. OR or if buying cheap stuff now will make problems happen later that will make this a not good experience so we give up.
Oh well sh!t this one hit home for me.
> 50% of the time probably for me.
I spent the day doing a charitable thing that made a big difference for someone, and I’m really proud that I was able to contribute. (but I won’t tell you what it was because I’m not here for praise)
But doing the thing utterly wrecked me, physically. I feel like I was wrestling a grizzly bear.
I wish I could have been a positive force in the world without breaking myself.
I did not stink up the room and I am relieved. This is not a complaint.
Sounds like a win-win
I never thought about how much effort was used to open my dishwasher when buying it. It requires quite a decent tug. I would not recommend to someone for whom that was an issue.
My brain woke me up at 4AM (WHY BRAIN WHY) and then I couldn’t fall back asleep so I decided to lay in the dark and catch up on my podcasts. One I listened to was “How To: Be Less Anxious” and the guy who wrote in to ask about being less anxious was going into what was making him so anxious and there was stuff about a child with a neurological disability who spent a considerable amount of time in the hospital. Considering I had a child with a neurological disability (though much, much less impactful than what his family was dealing with) who was in the PICU as a baby and that started a lot of anxiety issues for me, this was not the way to start my day. Then they got to the point in the podcast where he said his daughter passed away. None of that was hinted at in the episode description or else I would have had my guard up/not listened to that episode at all.
Wtf. No.
OMG second complaint…I’m sitting here waiting for a rider and just realized my blouse is on inside out!
Today is the day I am decluttering a lot of stuff from my childhood bedroom (trash day) and it’s also the only hot day we’ve had all week.
Poop water soaked my shoes.
My podcast app declared bankrupcy and deleted all my saved and subscribed podcasts.
Partially annoyed, but partially not that upset to start from scratch. There were a LOT of podcasts in my queue I was only partially interested in.
THIS IS A BIG COMPLAINT THIS IS HORRIBLE.
If I have backup shoes it will be ok, but if I don’t this will be a tragedy. Tbd.
Went to ikea, and they didn’t have what we needed in stock right now. So we both can’t do our cupboard swap/desk move/crib set up yet, AND we need to go back later. Also messed up my using a $25 off coupon plan.
(Benefit though, got a chair for $9. Little plastic guy in the as is bin, but it’ll be perfect for putting in the bathroom. I currently can’t put on pants without sitting down, and I struggle to get off the floor now. Pregnancy is glamorous).
I am bloody exhausted after filling in for my vacationing boss AND my vacationing co-worker since middle of last week. Somehow I decided a good way to stay awake at my desk was to snarf down as much junk food as possible. Poptarts, popcorn, a little bag of peanuts I found in my purse, cookies, some “cheese crisp” things I got at World Market the other day that aren’t even that good. Now I have a tummyache - and as a bonus, am STILL nodding off at my desk. Can’t nod off, I have a deadline today and there’s no one to help. Can’t have caffeine now, won’t sleep tonight. Could try chugging some more water, but, tummyache.
The bigger complaint is WHY IN F does this keep happening, where Boss and some other co-worker are out at the same time and I’m left holding the bag? We have a vacation calendar. Why don’t the powers that be set some sort of limit as to how many people per project can be out for days at a time, at the same time?
I’m struggling to wake up from my nap… But someone is coming to do me a favour so I have to
I had a very anxiety-ridden day and then came home and listened to the Terrible Thanks For Asking podcast about the lady whose husband died on 9/11. A few minutes in I realized how sad it was going to be and then still listened to it. Why. Also why do I still listen to that Podcast in general?
