i feel like i have turned into "that" girl. the one that is always in crisis mode. i can't seem to break the bad luck streak... its not all huge things, but geeeezzzzz i feel like i am a mess.
let me summarize:
i mentioned the kidney infection/antibiotics not compatible with nursing/pumping formula thing. well now i can nurse, and surprise, my supply is low. and while i build it up i have a normally very content baby that has become accustomed to free flowing food. she was taking 8 oz a feed. i am determined to resume to full capacity. meanwhile, savannah is showing me what angry looks like.
i think that i also touched on the whole oil leak in the car thing last week... well, presto! the check engine light is on again. great.
i thought that i had savannah's 6 month appointment this week. no, it was last week. i missed it. mom of the year, thanks. de-lightful.
the day that i was supposed to be taking savannah for her well baby appointment, i was busy having a MASSIVE allergy attack. as in, i had already taken astelin, zyrtec and then while i was at target {buying allergy medicine} i began to spiral into such a swollen eyes, wheezing, sneezing mess that i indeed needed to take a bynadryl on the way home, and then an hour later i had to take another. that's bad folks. like, i honestly don't know how i made it to pick up from preschool. or what i said. or how i looked up there.
then, there are other random things.... ethan cried for 45 minutes straight because he was sad i took a friend food. he thought we were giving away our food. granted, he didn't even want to eat our food at dinner...
while cooking dinner i think i over crowded the oven and EVERYTHING took forever to cook. {dear god, one day i would really really like a double oven. thanks.}
and then one of the disposable pans sprung a leak. nice.
and the two outside cats that have adopted us {another post for another day} have been on my inside cat's nerves... and the inside cat {hobbes} managed to get the front door open while i was loading the car. and he pounced.
and then our cat --- ran away. nice, huh? i am a mess over it... say a little prayer that he comes back safely. really soon.
and i am about to be the midnight food preserver. i have some late night home canning of a tasty seasonal condiment i hope to post for you soon. while that sounds cheesy and domestic, i assure you i am really just a mess.
the bright side? the heat isn't working, but when i am cooking and canning the kitchen gets the front of the house really hot -- so things have been balanced out. perhaps that is my silver lining...
xoxo, steph
