Just checking in.

Re: Just checking in.

It’s ok @CheerBear . I was in a problem solving headspace but then chickened out that that question was to personal and I didn’t want you to feel like you had to answer it. I ended up seeking some helpline help that helped lots and i worked out what was happening. My volcano erupted in a good way during the call and I feel so much better now I get what was underneath it. 

 

When you have time (and maybe the desire to without feeling compelled) I’d still like to have that discussion but it can wait until next week too. 

 

 I just managed to get into my garden and fertilise everything. It was way overdue. 

 

Enjoy your afternoon with littles and bigs. 💜🤗

just checking in.

my weekend was topsy-turvy but ok. Yesterday I had the most productive day for a while and was exhausted but couldn’t sleep so took some sleeping meds and am now on go slow but it’s a peaceful go slow. I’m psyching myself up for drinking a lot of water for an ultrasound in a couple of hours. Sooooooo scared I won’t be able to hold it......and yes after 4 kids my pelvic floor is a little weak......giving way to my fear that I’ll pee my pants in the waiting room 😳😬😯. I think this ultrasound is overkill and I’m not worried about it but am having it to keep my psych and GP happy.......there isn’t anything wrong with me, the glitch I had has corrected itself. 

 

Hope to catch up with everyone through the week 💜🤗

Re: Just checking in.

After a fairly non-stop time since Friday morning, I was also calling by to check in. Nice to see yours just as I logged on @Teej 🙂

Ugh for the u/s. I empathise thanks to misbehaving insides and a pelvic floor that didn't enjoy growing or birthing chunky babies. Good side of it is hetting to stand crossed legged at the desk as soon as the appointment runs overtime, saying it needs to be done asap or there'll be a puddle - it tends to get them moving 😉😆 Nice to hear you're having a peaceful go slow day ❤

I've had a mashed up few days with lots of busy and lots of needing some time out now to settle. There has been some great (family heart to heart chats) and some not-so-great (kids trashing a good section of the house during an enormous brain fart involving glue, baby oil, paint, glitter and instant snow while I had a quick nap - my face was 😮🤪😡😳 when I woke up). I have a quiet afternoon and quiet-ish day tomorrow and am looking forward to that.

Off for a wander and catch up around the forum. 👋 and ❤ to all 🌈

Re: Just checking in.

Sorry @CheerBear , couldn’t help but giggle about your kids brain fart 😜. It’s much more entertaining when it’s not your kids 😘. Glad for all the heart conversations. 

 

Your turn to giggle at my expense. Just turned up to the appointment to find out it’s tomorrow 🤦‍♀️.  I will go through all this tomorrow 😳

Re: Just checking in.

Oh no @Teej! That sucks! It's the day for it maybe - I rocked up to an 8:30 meeting stressing I was going to be a few minutes late to find out I was a month early 🤦‍♀ 

 

Little wrote the loveliest apology note that I found on their bed last night. It made up for the hours of cleaning I had to do (almost). Giggling a little about it today 🙂

 

 

Re: Just checking in.

@Teej @CheerBear You both gave me a giggle during the day reading your posts. I think the other people in my office space wondered what I was laughing at but they didn't ask - which was good because I would have had to explain that it was non-work related Smiley Tongue

 

CB your house seemed like it was very simialr to what my classroom always looked like - the first thing I always taught my kids was how to clean up - they could make as much mess as they liked as long as they cleaned it all up afterwards ...and the cleaners used to know that it would be done and they wouldn't have anything left to clean - suffice to say we were a very popular class with the cleaners Smiley Surprised

Re: Just checking in.

Haha @Zoe7 😁 We have a similar rule but we've never encountered a mess quite like this one before! Instant snow (it's like mini versions of the crystals inside disposable nappies) multiplies and grows with water but the glue needed water to wash it off! The baby oil made it all like I was on ice skates walking around the dining room (floorboards) trying to clean it up. I had no idea where or how to start. Bonkers 😳

Hope you've had a good day today. Missed you the last couple ❤
