Re: WTF, open letter, Rants, Aw, random thoughts, etc Wednesday

  • WTF is up with the cost of diapers these days? Holy crap! I just priced out diapers for a baby shower and realized for newborns they are .40 a peice. With 10-12 changes a day thats $5 a day. Thats $150 a month! Thats like a bill all by itself!

    I believe I will be more than willing to put out the extra work to cloth diaper when the time comes. Holy Canoli.

  • Wtf self - I dreamed spiders were falling on me and I yelled for Jeff to help me. Only I yelled in real life, Jeff freaked out and turned the lights on. He asked where the spiders were... I woke up and was like um... In my dream I guess. Needless to say, he didn't go back to sleep and just got up for work (he had to get up at 10 anyway). I kinda feel bad.

    Wtf work - they are trying to do this 45 days of no heat and no ac. They will only turn the ac on if it's 81 or hotter outside for 3 consecutive days. WE HAVE NO WORKING WINDOWS! It's been 82-84 degrees at my cube. I ended up getting sick yesterday blowing my 4 weeks without throwing up record. I had to go take a cold bath to get my body temperature down when I got home... And yet our COL went on last week about how our morale needs to be internal and not based on your environment - f you! (that ended up as a rant sorry)

    Wtf doctors - I make my appts on my off Friday for a reason - I'm off! Don't call to see if I'll come in Thursday or Monday! But now I have to use leave to go...

    Dear sister,
    You are 39 years old, grow up! Go to work! Stop relying on everyone else to bail you out. Or boo hoo life sucks and it's other people's fault. No, your life suck because of the years of bad decisions...

    Dear mom,
    Cut the umbilical cord to my sister. She needs to be self reliant! What happens if something happens to you guys? She'll come to us, that's what!

    Dear cw - work is not the place to cut your fingernails! Just stop!!!!

    That is some bullshit! That is so unhealthy for you to deal with heat like that. I mean come one! You are 18 weeks pregnant. Heat causes blood pressure to rise, they put people with high blood pressure on bed rest regularly that arent even in enviroments like yours. WTF are they thinking?

    This is why we renewed our BJ's membership. I think the swaddlers size 1 (that's newborn right?) is $40 for 186, so .22 each and they usually have $5 off coupons monthly. With coupon it's .19

    I'm calling the nurse today to see what temp for extended time is unhealthy. I'm here 9.5 hours a day. I almost cried yesterday because I thought being sick was over with.

    I dont blame you one bit. They always tell pregnant women to stay out of the heat, hot tubs, saunas because of blood pressure issues. Thats takes "baking your baby" to a whole new level.

    You can always get it down to under .20 a diaper if you try. Target diapers are pretty good, and they're fairly cheap.

    WTF AF- I haven't seen you in 18 months......and I was hoping for a few more. I was not thrilled to see you this morning. But thanks for coming back while I am home rather than in the middle of a school day.

    In case anyone is curious - nurse said I'll be fine at 85 degrees. Just stay hydrated. And she wouldn't give me a temp that's too hot. Said she's only worry if I was outside in the sun and could get heat stroke.

  • AW...DH fixed my tablet so I can post on the nest from it. Before I could only use my phone.

    Rant...I had a couple parents that didn't send in an hat for their child to wear in our parade today. It didn't even have to be decorated, just send something!! What bugs me is that hey do everything for the older siblings sports.and activities. Its like the younger ones get forgotten.

     

  • Wtf...surgicenter!! I received a bill yesterday from my eye surgery that was in September!! Over $1100. I'm freaking out until woman from insurance company tells me that they paid most of it through our HSA last year. Their billing sucks!! They had previously charged my insurance company for my left AND right eye. I don't think I'll end up being very nice to them on the phone today.

    no that was just 1 eye. And that was just what surgicenter charged. Actually they charged 3x that, but 1100 is contracted rate. Its freaking crazy!!!

    This is crazy that you even have to worry about this. I'm sorry. :(

     

  • I'm just going to whine for a second...

    I went out to dinner with a friend last night and I got to pick the place. I decided I wanted to go to Logan House because I was craving their pork tacos (weird, right?).  Anyway, we get there and find out that they had a grilled cheese special going on and there were all of these amazing sounding grilled cheese sandwich options.  I was seriously considering getting one, but thought to myself, 'No, you wanted to come here for the tacos, get the tacos.'  So I did.  Well, I realized the only reason I really love the pork tacos is because they come with this awesome rice and beans side dish...or should I say, used to come with.  They completely changed it up and I was less than impressed.  And I spent the whole meal wishing I had a grilled cheese instead.  Sigh.
  • @janma529 that's the worst! We went to Bahamas Breeze two weeks ago because I wanted this goat cheese stuffed peppers appetizer. I couldn't eat it while pregnant since you are supposed to avoid soft cheeses (ya I know it's cooked, but I still avoided them)and I was so excited to finally get it....except oh ya they don't carry it anymore. So upsetting! And there is nothing worse than wishing you ordered something else!
