Re: Whine Wednesday
I hate hate hate my one coworker. I wish he would quit or get fired. He is SUCH a douchebag.. I am not nice to him.. I have in fact told him that he should quit because EVERYONE hates him. I thought that made it clear how i felt about him, but then yesterday he asked another coworker why "I always seem so mad at him".. My coworker told him.. "Its because any interaction with you makes Melissa mad." hehe.. that made my day.
I hate this weather. I am itching to get out of the house, but DH made me kind of promise to stay home..since the weather is so crappy out.. It looks sunny out now, but its time for Eve's nap.
m/c 1/2/08 and 3/12/08
Eve Amelia- Born 2/24/09. 6lb 9.9oz

The carpal tunnel is killing me....my fingers are burning so bad...and I rest them and as soon as I move them it fires up...I can't get my hands comfortable..
and ugh my dog...on sunday night he threw up a rubber tube type thing- it was like a foot long and then he wouldnt eat or drink sunday night or monday. he's at the vet now on iv's for dehydration and they are watching him to make sure there isnt any blockage or any piece that may have lodged themselves in his intestine....poor puppy but jesus, this is like the 3rd or 4th time he ate something he shouldnt and its never been this bad in terms of how it afects him but you think he would learn- just eat your food not the toys or socks or rubber hoses... (ugh and its going to be so fricken expensive...I would rather spend this $ on the baby...)
Bwahahahaaaaaa!!!!! I vote Spaten if you are considering beer names!
No real whine for today.
Oh don't even worry, she has Spaten on her list too! :-p
I am filling out my self-assessment for the annual review process here at work. What a bunch of b.s.
How can you put into words that yes, while I "met" expectations- there is no possible way one can exceed expectations in this place because of all the one-off crap and fire drills that come up on a daily basis.
In my mind, surviving without anyone ending up in jail (I'm in accounting) IS exceeding expectations, lol.
Ugh- I hate these things, and then going over them with the powers that be is even worse.
You may not want to hear this, but they are real. Really, I'm not nuts. Our home has several of them, we've had an expert come several times and such. My husband is very sensitive to them and sees them often. Young children are more likely to be sensitive to them then adults are. He may actually be seeing something. Like I said - you probably didn't want to hear this.
No snow here.
But I just went grocery shopping because we're supposed to get hit later and we were totally out of food. But now I'm too tired to carry it all in by myself. DH worked until 8:30 last night so we didn't go together like we usually do.
All I want to do is lay on my couch or in my bed for a few days. I'm exhausted!!!
I have a coworker who is nice to everyone's face and then will turn around and talk about you. She asked why I wasn't going to a meeting scheduled for this afternoon- Um...because you left me off the emails informing about this meeting!!! I scheduled patients and she is mad that I'm not going. I'm sure everyone will hear about it! Bugs me!
I'm hoping for tons of snow but I'm annoyed that we've already been told that we are NOT closing tomorrow and that we're all expected to be here at work, on time. UGH!
Ryan is regressing in his sleep patterns rather than getting better. For a while he was giving me at least one 3-4 hour stretch at night before getting up every hour or so until we woke up. The last 3 nights, no such luck. He is awake again within 30 minutes of me putting him back to bed. Which means I haven't gotten more than 1.5 hours total of sleep each night. That and he is super cranky at night/evening.
Plus he won't fall asleep for naps on his own so i I basically have to make him fall asleep. And when he is napping, if it is anywhere off of me/a human, it's no more than 20-30 mins max. I have worn him to at least free up my hands while getting him to sleep longer, but I won't lie - I'm ready for the sleep thing to get better and stay that way for a while. I would guess growth spurt or somrthing but he already had that back closer to 6 weeks.
OK - vent over. On a positive note, he is so much better at being in the bouncer, swing, w/e by humself for a while now and off of me!;-) That and he smiles/coos a lot now!
My first haircut!
