Tonight I should be getting the kitchen spotless but a thorough dishes doing will have to suffice. At least we're caught up there now.

The living room can wait for tomorrow...

Swept
Vacuumed
Collected all the toys
Wiped down tv console table & wall & coffee table
Got dinner for small one
Cleared, scrubbed and wiped down part of the counter (1/5 zones)
Scrubbed the sink

I'm tired now.

Amazing. I can just feel the soft fuzz in the palm of my hand as they snuffle up a snack... Ugh, I wish I could give real pats to such a perfect 'paca!

Well, with such a perfect velvety nose like that, what else can we expect?!

They are! We lucked out with this place and with such a kind landlord. She's been so great so far and I hope continues to be great.

I checked the four pharmacies I can easily get to that are open after 4/5pm. Wednesday is the earliest availability. Feel like it's worse than a walk in.

So I guess my weekend is trying not to cry over how much pain I'm in every swallow.

😭😭😭 praying for you!

Same, though a better insult would have been to leave him blank. Oh well, hoping my choice gets elected.

And like... The US is right fucked. This administration is causing untold horrors that will be far reaching and unceasing. The collapse of that country is underway, and I am terrified of the ramifications it will have here.

So I don't need to read about miscarriages, still births, SIDS, etc. I have BEEN THROUGH IT enough already.

Even when they went to remove it, the Dr said I was likely to go into labour (this was at 36weeks) and he would have underdeveloped lungs = lifelong problems.

Lucky for us, he came basically on time. Even though birth was a whole other trauma, he was perfect and remains so.

We're very lucky.

So this started bi-weekly invasive ultrasounds to check it.
And an emergency surgery at 24 weeks in an attempt to keep him on the inside. And Dr's telling us the likelihood of survival was low. And then he stayed in, cozy and growing.
But every two weeks we were warned he could come out half baked

I had a pregnancy that felt easy, until they thought he had a cleft lip.
And then he didn't, just a pronounced cupids bow casting a shadow. But in that scan, they found my cervix was already like 4cm long instead of 10.
