Any annoyances? Here are mine (all first world problems, I realize)
1. DH grilled brats last night and took the rest of them to work. There were 4 left! I only had one!!
2. The neighbor kids dumped their breakfast trash on my front lawn while waiting for the bus
3. The mail is taking awhile to come today and I'm waiting on packages

I asked DH what he wanted from TJ, he asked for unsulfered figs. I told him they didn't have them, would he take the ones they have. He then gave me lecture on how to know if they're sulfured or unsulfered. I just wanted a yes or no answer.

Everything?
1.) I have to go grocery shopping (least favorite thing ever) even though DH swore all weekend he'd be able to go this week and then changed his mind.
2.) I was supposed to hear back about a job interview today, it's now after 5 and I haven't heard.
3.) I am going to pick up my dog's ashes and it's making me sad all over again.

M has been nursing ALL day. He hit 6 weeks today so I think it's a growth spurt.
Also, my belly is purple from all the bruising around my incisions. It looks gruesome, even though they don't really hurt that much anymore. It's ugly.

Dead & bloated squirrel in our pool, DH's work issues and parents at daycare who ask about LO 2's milestones.

@HLK208: taking the leftovers to work would bother me too...pregnant ladies get dibs on leftovers!
I have a tension headache that won't go away
Our tenant gave notice that she's moving out so now I have to list our condo and it's just not something I want to deal with right now
I just got a notice for jury duty - now I have to find a sitter and figure out what to do if it's more than a day or two

I think I have thrush, luckily L isn't showing signs so I'm hoping to fix it without a rx but man is it painful!
I'm also waiting for packages - I don't think they're coming today

@sandy: DH got out of jury duty by stating he didn't have a sitter! Jury duty is cruel when you have pregnancy exhaustion!

My ILs. My BIL is extremely rude, I'd post a screenshot of his texts to mr. Bird, but they're rather offensive. Yesterday he went ballistic because he came home from work and saw mr. Bird was there wishing his mom a happy Mother's Day (he lives in their parents' basement). He's an ass.

i'm sick of being a grownup. it's a never ending slog through health insurance BS, home repairs, financial stress, etc. and i have to handle it all. hubs is useless. plus i feel like a shitty mom because lately every trip out of the house with my two boys turns into a big fight. at target today by the time we got to the checkout both boys were crying, i was sweating buckets from stress and other women were giving me knowing looks of understanding and pity.

@HLK208: I was able to defer jury duty for a year by saying I was the primary caretaker of a baby with no other childcare. But they said I could only use that reason once. All I know is I'm packing a ton of snacks bc I get so sick if I get hungry

1) My work is giving me a difficult time about maternity leave
2) We (my husband and I) owe the rest of our lives to the government (thank-you medical school loans) and I wish I could drop out of residency and do something I actually enjoy. Live life for once!
3) It is my last day of vacation
4) Routine dental cleaning turned into getting 3 cavities filled. Thank-you pregnancy for making my gums bleed as well!
I hope everyone on here has a better day tomorrow!

@autumnlove: eww- I have a snake outside if that makes you feel better. That made me laugh! Dead and bloated squirrel. Hahaha.
I am sure your LO is doing amazing, milestone wise and other! You sound like a wonderfully concerned mom.

@Mrsjets: I had thrush last year and treated it worth acidophilus and lacto bacillus. I was so happy I didn't have to take Diflucan or Nystatin!

I woke up at 2 am this morning and could fall back asleep until 6. Then woke up at 730 for the day.
My stomach is acting up and no one has answers on what's wrong. All the tests I've done said everything was normal.

Right now, my toddler that won't go to sleep. I am so ready for bed, but I can't go to sleep until he does! Go to sleep!
Illness in general. I feel like we've all been sick since he started daycare. He had a cold that has lasted like a month and now HFM. I got his cold, plus horribly bad allergies, and I'm petrified I got HFM from him...but when your sick and miserable toddler wants to cuddle and get close to your face you don't deny him that comfort....
D? We're having trouble finding a household balance now that I've gone back to work. I think he thinks...she's home in the evenings, but it's still since I've been up at 6 am, after I've worked all day, and done all evening/bedtime with E. I don't think it's fair that it still be expected that I be the sole one to take care of the house, as well. He's not doing it intentionally, it's just taking some readjusting for all of us still.
However, non bother on that, he has started doing night wakings, when they occur, since he goes in later than I do!

@lovehoneybee: cleaning lady saved us from fighting over cleaning.
A friend is just rubbing me the wrong way today
Work
There isn't enough time in the day. Eating dinner at 830 after working out and hour before bed isn't good.

Our house......it's a mess.
Myself.....I was kind of bratty during my sister's graduation and we ended up leaving early with my parents and I got them out before parents were recognized and I feel bad. I was hot, ready to go, and they had said we were leaving early but then we had to stay for pics. I'm also hormonal because we are in the process of weaning and I felt awful that morning.
End of the year work stuff......it's just chaotic and I am having trouble dealing with the transitions.
Just that feeling that I'm treading water. However, I do realize that treading water means my head is above the water and not under it, so I'll take that.

@Claire.Peonies: I feel you on the med school loans. Suffocating!
I'm feeling really sad that my maternity leave ends around the corner. So hard to go back to leaving my babies every day and go back to cramming all the housework, laundry, etc. back into weekends. Dreading the transition back

A bunch of ridiculous work stuff. But I'm surprisingly not too annoyed by it...

My apartment. Every time I put something away my toddler throws it on the floor so it's just a total mess. Her current "must do 5,000 times a day" activity is climbing onto the dinner table. So we've had to hide all our chairs so she can't get onto it as easily. We will NEVER be done baby proofing!

@Claire.Peonies: Real life is better and far more fulfilling than residency. I promise. Just choose your job carefully and with eyes wide open!
I had a mini-meltdown today with our Dragon dictation system. It gets all my cuss words correct, but it cannot figure out "due to". (To to, do 2, 2 2....AUGGHHH!) Such a first world problem, but the program sucks.

@oscarthegoon: aww I hate that, I break into a cold sweat when LO is freaking out in public too.
I am freaking out about some big changes that aren't public yet, but they entail a ton of work being done in a short amount of time. I half want to pause TTC but we're going on 6 months and it seems silly to stop now. But if I'm KU with all this going on, it's going to be awful. NO right answers!

@HLK208: thank you!
@Mrs.Panda: oh that's good to know! How long did it take? L has been on probiotics (for gas/colic) for about a month so I have just been taking some of hers the last couple days. Hoping that, as well as vigilant cleaning, gets rid of it. If I'm still in pain by Friday I will probably go to the dr and use the rx.

@IRunForFun: I'm so sorry to hear about your dog *hugs*
Yesterday I was annoyed by work stuff. Today so far *knock on wood* all I'm annoyed about is trying to make appointments that are proving to be difficult

An important work decision I need to make. It's weighing really heavily on me.

Finances. DH and I met with our financial adviser on starting to save for LO's education. We agreed to go over our budget last night together to come up with something. DH fell asleep right after he put LO down instead and I had to figure it out myself (again). It's my biggest pet peeve about DH...he leaves all of the finances to me...but I sometimes need a little support. I'm just annoyed that we've been trying to do this for the last week and he falls asleep when we agreed to talk. It makes it seem like this isn't priority to him.

I'm exhausted from a whirlwind trip for a funeral this weekend. We just put our house on the market on Friday and the response hasn't been what we were led to expect, and I'm stressing we're going to be sitting on it for awhile.

My dramatic SIL. She texted me at 6am to tell me she has "cervical cancer" AKA an abnormal pap. She is freaking out and made my MIL take the day off work. Crazy.

1. We just heard from our realtor that our house isn't getting a lot of interest on the coming soon website. We want this thing SOLD once we list this weekend.
2. The physician advisor I work with is a huge asshat. He is so arrogant and interrupts the residents and nurses and speaks for others. I can't f*cking stand him.
3. Now that I've given notice at my job, I just want to be done.
4. But I need to find a new job where we're moving.

1. I can't find cheap decent furniture for LOs room.
2. DH just sent me a picture of LO with my mascara all over her face...where was he to stop her before doing it?? (he's home with her today.)
3. Work is slow...the day is slow...I hate days like this.

1) I made an idiot mistake on my financials and now have a lot less money in the bank than I'm accustomed to. It's no big deal, the bills will get paid, but I feel stupid and I can't buy myself anything for awhile (I'm in the process of rebuilding my wardrobe).
2) People at work are aggravating me because they can't get along with a contracted company. Somehow I am now the point person between the two parties, which sucks because I wasn't originally supposed to have anything to do with this whole project and now things are being thrust at me. I want to tell them all to put on their big kid underwear and start acting like adults.
3) We really need to get our subfloor in the bathroom looked at (it's creaking a lot more than usual and there is a hole behind our toilet), but I really don't want to deal with tearing up our only full bathroom.
