My check was smaller than I was expecting (the joys of getting paid semimonthly) and I lost the race against two different overdraft fees this morning. All in all, I'm about $200 short of being able to pay all the bills. Any help would be much appreciated.

We have $30 out of $200 💜

My lower legs have been freezing at night lately, and I wake up really sore bc of it. So apparently I have decided wearing socks* to bed is less evil than wearing pants to bed. I hate wearing pants to bed, they always feel tangled in the blankets.

*Fuzzy thigh highs. That counts for something.

A million people died

me needing romantacy audiobooks to survive the horrors puts my grandma's soap operas in a whole new light lol

I'm so tired of spending every weekend sick and exhausted and miserable and in pain because "if you don't choose a time to rest, your body will choose for you." I'd be happy to choose a time to if that was a fucking option.

Yet another item on my list of reasons I should probably homeschool.

My favorite reply I've seen today:

"I'm impressed by your commitment to your current level of understanding."

Every time I think I miss snow, I see a post like this and I am cured of that.

Single vaccine could protect against all coughs, colds and flus, researchers say A Stanford University team have tested their nasal spray vaccine in animals but still need to do human clinical trials.

Why isn’t the right excited about technology?

In the end, don’t we all want the same thing?

Today's exciting new level of sleep deprivation: I apparently can't regulate my own body temperature, plus muscle cramps and random hives

He sleeps on the couch (his choice) because his snoring keeps me awake and I have enough problems sleeping as it is. But until B has a place to sleep out there, that means overnights are automatically my problem. We take the playpen out there on the weekends, but I need it in the office on weekdays.

There were parts missing from the giant playpen we got for my office. The replacement parts should get here Wednesday. I need them to hurry up so the normal size playpen can go to the living room. Once that happens, M can take B every other night so I can occasionally get more than 2hrs of sleep.

It doesn't always work, so here I am staring at the clock, doing the "I could get 4hrs if I fell asleep right now" but knowing that that won't happen.

B has been waking up for an extra bottle at 5am, so now when my body is finally willing to let me sleep around 4am, I'm just awake again and cranky an hour later. So I started just staying up until he's done eating, but then I have to start the whole "convincing myself to sleep" process over again.

I miss sleep.

She emails them every 2-3mos. Due for updated ones next month.

Yup. And especially right now. Who knows when the state just runs out of money and their office is just gone?

He's still seeing his DS about every 6wks, so she is keeping track, but I try to also as much as possible

Definitely looking at Maze for the "caaaaa," and then crawled to go pet her. The "mamamamama" is usually when we're making silly faces at each other

Do we think it counts as B's first word that he's said "caaaaa" more than once when he saw Maze? Felt intentional to me, which is more than I can say for the "mamamamama" babbles 🤣

He also really enjoyed Friend Like Me, Kidnap the Sandy Claws, and Bare Necessities. We had a little dance party. You can tell he really feels the music and I love that so much.

B is dancing to Hakuna Matata 🤣 by which I mean he's jumping up and down to the beat while M keeps him from falling down.

I figured it out. It's the shape of the frames. My usual ones are very short, wide rectangles, and these are more square. So I can look further down through them and my eyes are having trouble focusing through the lenses at that angle because they're not used to doing that.

It happens every time I switch from one pair to another. It usually clears up on its own in a few minutes but it didn't this time. Then again I do have a pressure headache from the rain. I'll try them again later.

Why does a different pair of glasses make me feel all wonky and just off? They have the same anti glare coating, they're the same high index rx that means they have to be ridiculously thick, the only difference is the frames. But I cannot currently function with the new ones.

All those years saying "Tom would never" and it was a lie????

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
