House selling commiseration thread
runmiarun replied to kokotg's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Our house is FINALLY listed. Anybody want to buy an almost-beach-house that you can work on and live in? http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/3005-Sherwood-Dr_Brunswick_GA_31520_M52350-97446 -
It could be PUPPPS. Mention it to your doctor. I had it with all my pregnancies but with the last one (#4) it was the worst. I had to go on steroids because I would scratch until I bled. I couldn't wear anything except mu-mu's because anything that touched my skin made me itch and bleed. It finally went away about 2 weeks after delivery. I tried tea tree oil, Sarna, everything I could but nothing really helped until the steroids. That lessened the itch considerably but it came back right at the end of the pregnancy.

If you paid for hot tea at Starbucks, you NEEDED it. BTDT. I hope you are feeling better today. I'm sure the buyers will understand. You can always have your realtor give the other realtor a "heads up" email so they know in advance the lay of the land. You only have a few more days. You can do it! I know you can. If nothing else, let your blood boil and give you energy to pack.

WWYD? Nighttime potty training for 5 year old
runmiarun replied to joannqn's topic in General Education Discussion Board
I have to tell you that we have the same problem with both our boys. And have done the same "holding them over the toilet at night" scenario. As I read your post, I giggle because we do that same dance almost every night. Including the boy falling asleep bit. We've stopped using the overnight diapers. They were just getting way too expensive with having to have the different sizes for the 2 boys and still having the 2 girls in diapers. We bought the plastic mattress covers from Bed, Bath and Beyond for 5.99 each. I change the sheets just about every other day. Some days the boys will wake up dry. MIL reminds me that hubby didn't stop nighttime wetting until he was 9. -

Children of narcissists I need you :(

Very wise advice if the option of estrangement is off the table. Thanks! -
Children of narcissists I need you :(
runmiarun replied to Alicia64's topic in General Education Discussion Board
:iagree: All of the above. My mother was a narcissist. Life with her was miserable. Divide and conquer was one of her games, as well. My brother is one and following in her footsteps. Many, many hugs and prayers for you today. -

To coffee or not to coffee
runmiarun replied to bethben's topic in General Education Discussion Board
Cannot live without my coffee. My husband appreciates my coffee drinking, even though he doesn't drink it nearly as strong as I do. I drink 2 cups of very strong in the morning, cut with a little half and half, and 1 regular strength in the afternoons, cut with half and half. I keeps me awake enough to do school, take care of life, and still sleep at night. I'm very picky about my roasts but since we're strapped for cash until our house sells, I'm using store-bought coffee from Starbucks. I hope to get back to fresh beans and even roasting my own when we have some spare change (and time). -

If the gloves are off, show off that manicure! But don't mess up the polish. :lol:

I think I'm going to need many friends to help me recover. I can't fend off all those kilted cabana boys by myself. Let's see. I've had the tooth about 39 years. Divide by 2 gives me 19 1/2 days. Since we can't do half days, let's call it 20 days plus 7 in Aruba. Since it's soooo close to a full 4 weeks, let's just say I need a month to recover.

I'm getting an infected baby tooth (I've had it 40 years now) and one of my 3 wisdom teeth out on Friday. Y'all are making nervous thinking about the recovery. But at the same time, I'm ready to be out of pain. I only have 3 (mutants unite!) so the other 2, one of which is impacted, will come out in a few of weeks.

Need help getting my 1yo to sleep..
runmiarun replied to Stayseeliz's topic in General Education Discussion Board
:bigear: My 15 month old sleeps for about 3-4 hours then is up for a couple of hours then sleeps again. Some nights she'll go back to sleep if I put her in the bed with DH and I. But I then I get kicked all night. She's a very restless sleeper. I don't know if it's teeth or something else. I've had to give her allergy meds a couple of times lately since our pollen counts have been in the 5 digit range. Even on those nights, she woke up. I really just want to get some sleep. Even a 4 or 5 hour stretch would be nice. Anything more than this current 2-3 hours of broken sleep. -
Look who decided to come out and play!!!

A question about those popular cross-body bags.
runmiarun replied to a topic in General Education Discussion Board
Cute bag you purchased! I use a Kavu bag that goes across my body. I need my arms and shoulders free and the Kavu works for me. It's small enough to carry all I need and big enough for me to stuff a little extra in if needed for the day. I've had mine 3 1/2 years and it's finally worn out. I'm getting a new one for Mother's Day.
