Except they do not nap!

Ack!!!

merigayle · November 12, 2012, 02:16:00 PM

I know, but DD is on the verge of no more naps anyways. So i guess it will be fine once we get thru the transition.

debbatx · November 12, 2012, 02:27:51 PM

Oh, if she's on the verge, then I wouldn't worry too much. Every time I think Reid's on the verge of dropping his nap (*sob*) he turns around and sleeps for 2 hours for me, so....

merigayle · November 12, 2012, 02:39:12 PM

today she would not nap and after 1 hour, i just made her lay on the couch and watch tv (right now).

debbatx · November 12, 2012, 02:52:47 PM

I wish. The few times Reid hasn't napped, our attempts at "quiet time" have been miserable failures.

merigayle · November 12, 2012, 02:57:25 PM

she just was not evn winding down at nap time and after an hour i was just fed up with laying in there with her. It was too frustrating! I have my sewing class tonight, so DH gets to deal with her

debbatx · November 12, 2012, 03:38:38 PM

LOL - good luck to your DH.

merigayle · November 13, 2012, 06:22:04 PM

OMG! DH emailed me that DD told the bat shit crazy school director that she was going to a new school. No more details than that. I was hoping to just avoid talking to her about it and talk to the teacher taht handles all the financials

merigayle · November 13, 2012, 06:44:17 PM

OMG OMG OMG! Talked to DH and the director approached him and asked him straight out. My super shy husband

he told her we just started talking about it and have not made a decision yet. She told him they need 1 month notice and i have no issue with that, but is it notice if she is still going to be going there?

I dunno. I am like, let's send her tomorrow to the new place! LOL. We go tomorrow night with DH to look at it.

I am going to drop DD off in 20 minutes, hopefully my interactions with her director will be brief and i can talk to the other woman who handles the financials when i pick her up. AND i have a dentist appt this morning.

debbatx · November 14, 2012, 10:12:27 AM

Eeeek! Good luck!

merigayle · November 14, 2012, 12:22:44 PM

well i was the better person and instead of avoiding her this morning, i approached her and told her we were looking at it for the fall and did not expect them to have an immediate opening and that we are returning tonight with DH and then will make a decision and can i talk to her assistant (who does the financials and schedule) at 3pm when i pick Zoe up.

DH is part convinced they are going to tell me to hit the road instead of taking her for 6 hours a week + when the new place is closed, but i do not think so, there is one boy who comes just a couple days a month.

I have been a bottomless pit the past few days. I need to just toss the leftovers from the dinner party I had this weekend. Too tempting! I need to get back onm track!

The guy in my department just brought in Wendy's for his lunch. I'm about to beat him up for his food. It's the salt thing again. Normally I'm not a big fan of Wendy's.

cgraz · November 14, 2012, 12:41:57 PM

Oh, I have been craving fast food something fierce this week. (Sure enough, checked the calendar...yup, period is due on Sunday...) We were parked near a Wendy's to get gas the other day and when the smell wafted in the window, I just about lost my mind. Wendy's is my favorite of the fast food chains, but I am even drooling over the idea of a McD's cheeseburger and fries.

Glad to be resisting but it is hard! Salt is always a big weakness for me.

debbatx · November 14, 2012, 01:05:55 PM

I have a 3-hour seminar this afternoon. I may have to run out in a bit and get a bag of Fritos and a coke to get me through. I'm about to fall asleep.

merigayle · November 14, 2012, 01:45:57 PM

being vegetarian helps in this department

debbatx · November 14, 2012, 01:57:34 PM

I did it. I went out and got Fritos and a Coke. Apologies to Newbie, because that's not a very healthy lunch for an 11-week old fetus, but OMG SO GOOD.
