11 weeks today- baby is the size of a lime! I want to add an EFF YEAH to continue Lt. Dad's trend:

EFF YEAH to my fur babies for always being sweet angels and making me happy every second of every day

EFF YEAH to my mom being supportive and helpful during this time

And a big EFF YEAH to transitioning into "week off" with SD!

Even though I do the Eff Off, I'm still very aware of the things for which I'm thankful. I just decided to do a Throwback Thursday instead of Thankful! Biggrin

Fur babies are the best. I miss my darling boy. Glad you're getting your week off!

Eff off to cramps. Because being a lady sucks sometimes.

Eff off to allergies. Because breathing is a useful skill.

Eff off to school starting in less than 3 weeks, meaning we're about to put out a small fortune in clothes and supplies and fees.

A few EFF YEAHS:

EFF YEAH to taking PTO this week. My house might actually get clean.

EFF YEAH to massages.

EFF YEAH to cooler temps.

Eff off to:

  • Heat, humidity, too much sunshine... I miss the snow too... Living in the South is so rude Sad
  • I'm with both you and theoldredhen on Mosquito bites... I haven't landed int he hospital, but I do swell up SUPER bad at the bite location.... Also ticks, I've had one tick bite, it's been hard and itchy for two months now...
  • Court
  • BM
  • GBM still being in town
  • DH having 32 hours of clinicals this weekend, which means no time with him... Dang I need a date night.

PA, go to Walmart and get some Benadryl CAPSULES. Empty out the powder, mix in a couple drops of water - enough to make a paste. Put that on the bites. It's MUCH more effective than any Benadryl cream and you won't get sleepy because you apply it topically.

I'll give it a try!!! Because if I take regular benedryl I'm literally passed out in 15 minutes flat... Thanks Aniki!

  Be careful. Topically applied Benadryl  can make you sleepy if you put on enough of it. My sister found that out the hard way.

I can use one 25mg capsule to cover 5-6 bites. But I also have a high tolerance to Benadryl.

ProbablyAlreadyInsane's picture

I have ZERO tolerance to virutally anything... I got a pain killer after foot surgery... They said "may make you slightly drowsy." I was out for 24 hours straight... I immeadiately threw them in the trash and didn't take another one... Benedryl is normally a solid 8-10 hours. LMAO

I shall! Thanks Aniki! I just got another new one on my leg too... I swear I can't walk even 10 feet outside without something eating me...

Eff off to Summer rotation-I hate it, everytime SS comes back from BM's he has a new terrible habit we have to deal with. I am over it. The over-exposure to her Disney Parenting is destroying the well-rounded kid we work hard to cultivate and he comes back an entitled brat everytime

And an Extra EFF Off to weight loss. I have been trying to lose weight for months now and the scale isn't budging. I am the same weight I was a year ago even with better eating, being more active and taking supplements. And it's even worse when I look online for motivation, all the females my height are 115lbs. I can't imagine being that little; that double my desired weightloss goal now that I can't seem to even get to so there's no hope.

Maxwell, I hear you on that weight loss caca. I've been eating MUCH healthier, but am staying within a certain weight range. Frustrating.

i feel your pain!  I am vertically challenged and what is worse I took a genetic test which shows that I am predisposed to gaining and holding onto weight!  

So far the only thing that has helped is drinking half my weight in water (ounces to lbs) everyday, eating zero sugar or carbs.  No rice, flour, bread, pasta, cornmeal or any vegetables that have large amounts of starch or sugar in them such as corn, carrots, beets.   Not even gluten-free type products pretty much straight keto / paleo.  I'm not going to lie to you it's been rough, however I am introducing more foods now.   I lost a total of a little over 30 lb since end of January.  And with no exercise.
