Ponder’s work broke something and he had to work all day. It threw off all my plans so we ended up watching TV all day.
I want to be clean. I miss being clean
Crap naps today. Eta for the baby. No naps for me
I had plans to get a couple things done before noon today. A cat appeared, and things did not get done.
ETA: Clearly the cat was plotting.
Cat is always plotting.
Kimya Dawson made me cry.
Having a really hard time getting motivated and feeling bad about myself for my laziness. I also slept until nearly 10, which never happens, and skipped my workout class for no good reason other than I was tired.
I’ve been in a bad mood all day.

I have friends in AZ and TX where it is apparently 100 and yes I KNOW it should not be 100 yet in April. But here it’s 40s and raining and absolutely miserable and I’m feeling morose about how all my plans to move someplace warm have gone down the shitter for the foreseeable future.
two ex-people have reached out in the past 7 days. Go away! I didn’t invite you to send me messages!
Damn quarantine!
I looked at my taking care of baby book, since I can’t check milestones with a doctor. pages and pages of what to expect at the doctor’s office and vaccines and to discuss anything minor with the doctor.
Fuck you too pediatricians who forgot to write a pandemic version . Also fuck you pediatricians in the news talking about the danger of skipping or delaying vaccines in the pandemic.
I’m sorry, newborn days are stressful enough without “helpful” books being unhelpful. Did your pediatrician give you directives about how to check in with them these days? I just heard that our pediatrician is doing some curbside stuff for sick visits (and that’s after a nurse phone call and after telehealth when possible), no idea if they’re doing well visits at all but they say they haven’t had a single covid case in their office so far.
Edit, I don’t mean this to come across as any stance on vaccine timing, I just have no idea how pediatricians are functioning these days.
I’m not really understanding the issue with delaying vaccines - when we aren’t supposed to be randomly gathering with random people or carting new fresh babies into shopping malls - putting that on parents right now is not cool
FWIW based on my lifestyle at the time our pediatrician in WA state US recommended spreading vaccines out and doing one at a time.
He made recommendations based on individual circumstances and science instead of trying to scare parents that are already feeling a little helpless so…
I didn’t have access to medical care when my dudes were tiny. They ended up on a delayed vaccine schedule, but in the end they caught up. These aren’t normal times. Doing your best is more than good enough.
I’m seeing my family doc, and his clinic is closed for anything but telehealth. And as of my last check, only urgent or emergency care. Which is Ontario law right now. But some "leading pediatricians " made a statement to the media that we shouldn’t delay vaccines and parents should ask their doctor to vaccinate in drive through clinics
She’s so good at that.
She and her kiddo used to come into the pet supply shop I worked at a few years back. Lovely folks, CUTEST DOG.
I was really excited that restrictions have been lifted enough that I can see my sister and her kids again (they’re all isolating and so are we, so pretty safe)… Then I realised that the kids are going back to school in a few days and I won’t be able to risk it
Nooooo. What a bummer.
We can visit, though!
