Someone please yell at remind me to clean my goddamn humidifier today. I haven't used it in a week because I haven't wanted to deal with it but it's pretty necessary right now. Lame. 

I need to do Midget Mayhem's this weekend too. NGL I'm tempted to just throw it away and buy a new one. . .

ps @Countess D'If it happened. My father was unpacking the ingredients I ordered for his desserts and he was like "oh we already have baking soda over there." It wasn't the cat litter one, but it was still an older box and it's been sitting next to the moldy sink for god knows how long with a rusty, disintegrating SOS pad leaning on it. And then he was also mad I ordered butter when there was some in the fridge... that expired in April. I was like "absolutely not. If it had been in the freezer the whole time then maybe-" and he goes to put it in the freezer then.

Doesn't matter in this case but the annual Thanksgiving baking clusterfuck is coming up and I can't say for sure he wouldn't use the same box for that.

ABSOLUTELY THE FUCK NOT. No. NO NOOOO. No. Of all the dumb, disgusting shit your dad had pulled, this is it. This broke me. I'm done.

Please write back immediately and tell me that you've done something to prevent/stop this. I need to know you're safe. Mark yourself safe on FB RIGHT FUCKING NOW or I am calling the cops.

Probably better to almost cry during a personal conversation than during arguments.

Fair.  Fair. I was saying goodbye to her. I hate goodbyes, and I’m a crier on top of all of that, so yeah

anyway. As if there isn't enough going on, my uterus has decided to ramp up the bullshit and increase its output despite the fact that I'm still taking the pill as directed. There has not been a single fucking day in the entire month of October that I have not been bleeding. Not one. What the fuck. I have an appointment with a gynecologist next week but I'm just so over this as well. Blarrrrrrrgh so unpleasant. 

Have you tried an IUD, I can’t remember?

"oh god am I also experiencing caregiver burnout over this?”

Lolz, absolutely you are 

Happy Monday! So far I have 

• Gotten up on time
• Gotten midget mayhem up on time
• Showered and did my hairs (this new hair cut is KILLING it, BTW)
• Brushed my tooths
• Got Midget Mayhem to school on time 
• Got me to work on time
• Did my make up
• Almost cried in front of a federal judge during a personal conversation

Yay!

Midget mayhem got sick this afternoon, so I took her to the doctors office. No strep no flu, thank goodness. So when we got home and we did her wig for Halloween tomorrow. That was fun. Actually that was a lie, It was not fun, I hate doing wigs. So, after I cried to the judge I

• went to a potluck (it was delicious)
• got midget mayhem from school, took midget mayhem to her pediatrician
• got midget mayhem some McDonald’s
• Came home
• brushed a wig
• screamed at a wig
• Put a wig in curlers
• Watched goosebumps on Disney+. We are really enjoying this series I have to say
• Brush my teeth
• Took off my make up
• took my vitamins
• Gave midget mayhem some cold meds
• did my hair
• and now I’m in bed

Did your doctor prescribe Benzonatate? That sheet is the best. Also, OTCwise, Delsym is amazing for both hacking body wracking coughs and annoying tickly coughs

Ok, back from Nebraska. Had a great time, but also slept like absolute shit. Time to buckle down on this challenge. Midget Mayhem asked is she could quit volleyball and while I'm sad she's giving up, I also don't want to force her to do something she isn't enjoying. So I'm going grocery shopping tonight for the week. I will get my gym printout printed out. And yeah, let's do this

Went for a gorgeous walkies last night. This town is cute as hell!

Hair cute is CUTE AS FUCK

Omaha is a pretty nifty place, I have to say

I have a headache. Not a migraine, a headache. Annoying. 

I need to pack for my FIRST EVER WORK TRIP!!! I need to take my laptop/dock, air pods, sweater, charging cords, and my blazers from my office.

Then I need to pack clothes, shoes, and my not-work water bottle when I get home

THEN, we are going to the https://www.hendersonsilverknights.com/ game tonight. YAY!

TOMORROW  I am chopping my hair off

so great minds think alike. we just need a better idea.

You'd think between the two of us we could come up with something. But for reals, boo on your therapist. No fun

Me and my bad attitude : not my fucking problem. But I get it. Your no fun brain can go pound sand with your no fun therapist for being the WORST

Anyway. Have done none of the things I said I would do so far. Plenty of day left, I'm just in a mood and don't wanna. 

Remember, it's your no fun brain and your no fun therapist's fault. 

I had my penultimate hearing on litigation stuff this morning. I may have yelled at the judge a little bit. . .😬

But also I got to watch this nonsense:

Hee hee. That headline is a little misleading, Goodman didn't say he wouldn't represent him, he said he could not confirm, which is slightly different.  But those are hella quality photos

OMG I'm so sorry! Glad you're getting her the help she needs to deal with this...

I hate the people in this world sometimes...

Thanks guys! I hate that she's having to deal with this. I applied for spots at the two other schools for her. We'll see how it goes. 

Last night was volleyball and she did a great job, even though I skipped her Adderall yesterday (she was still shakey and I didn't want to re-trigger an anxiety attack with stimulants). I think she likes her coach for this cycle. Coach is a girl and she's super supportive/not a task master like last cycle. Don't get me wrong, the last coast was also awesome and funny, but he was not fucking around. 

Ok, so the reason Midget Mayhem is having anxiety attacks is because https://www.8newsnow.com/news/local-news/man-faces-dui-charges-in-north-las-vegas-crash-that-killed-5-year-old-boy/

She is not doing well at all. That happened where I drop her off for school at the exact time I drop her off. She was sick that morning, or she would have seen it happen. She is a mess. I talked to admin about a transfer and they told me what I need to do. She's a mess rn. So I'm a mess. I couldn't get her out of the car yesterday morning, so I let her stay home and she and her bonus mom went for a retail therapy dollar tree make up shopping spree. The Marine is going to get her an appointment with her therapist ASAP. 

Being a 12 year old girl is hard enough without having to come home and tell people there's blood all over the ground at school
