I don't even know where to start. As usual.
So apparently Leo dislikes his job so much that he had to take Thursday and Friday off last week to get his head together. Oh, and apply for jobs outside of south Florida. I guess he's really kind of had it with BSO, and wants to leave the area if possible. He applied for, like, half a dozen jobs in Charleston. Y'all, I have my fingers crossed so hard I can't even tell you. I was pretty indifferent to staying here or moving elsewhere until Leo started seriously talking about going back to Charleston, and now I just want it to happen SO MUCH. I'm trying to be supportive and positive while not getting my hopes up in case it doesn't happen.
Took some Mama Time over the weekend. I went to Barnes & Noble and bought this book, and it's hilarious. I also got my monthly pedicure and ventured outside my comfort zone and had them do a pink nail polish. It's so not me, but I'm actually really enjoying OPI's Pink Flamenco.
My child continues to teethe, and it continues to be shit. Olivia's constantly cranky, sleeping terribly, and now not eating much. Poor thing. I feel awful, but there's not much I can do. I think all of her molars have more or less finished coming in, but she still doesn't have her canines on the top or the bottom, so they must be giving her trouble. I can't wait until this shit is over. In happier Olivia news, I found a four-piece toddler bedding set on clearance at Target for $15, yay! She seems excited at the idea, but I'm not sure if I should make up her crib with the new things now or wait until we remove the front of the crib and make it a toddler bed. She's 20 months today, but I don't think we're ready for the toddler bed yet. Also, Leo has been teaching her how to say her name (way to give her a difficult name, Daddy!) and mostly it comes out "Abeeya," which is pretty cute.
In other news, we watched Horrible Bosses, which they really should have been called Horrible Movie instead. Ugh. I've made it through the first four seasons of my Sex and the City re-watch, and now I'm finally getting to some of my favorite bits. Apart from the Berger storyline, which I like to pretend didn't happen because I dislike Ron Livingston kind of a lot.
And since it's on my mind... Those of you with kids, how do you feel about Mother's Day? Last year was my first one, and my sometimes-clueless husband made the entire day about seeing his mother (which didn't even happen!) and kind of didn't realize he should have maybe acknowledged that it was a special day for me. Understandably, I think, I'm not optimistic about this year. So, what about it, moms? Anyone love it? Hate it? Indifferent to it? Is it important to you at all? Is it more important for you to do something for your own mother? Are your kids old enough to do something for you for Mother's Day or are they too little?
