Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))

Confession: my major goal today is do not die of boredom at work. I have a project, but it's boring project and I will be done by 11am anyway. After that, everyone who gives me projects are in merger meetings and everyone whose work I need to be done before I start is on Christmas vacation.0

Me, too, but I don't even have a project...2

in the meantime I have shamelessly given up fighting my disgusting goblin tendencies and the evidence of bulimia is accumulating faster than I can throw it away again...
I thought you were going to talk to your host mother about needing some help with this?
The drag show or the eating disorder? Lolol.
In either case, she cannot know.
Cannot.can.not.
The ED, but not specifically....just help with your feeling of being out of control.0 -
It's 3am and of course I'm awake. I've fed the sproglet on both sides, fresh nappy, cuddled and burped, and she's looking up at me all wide eyed, as if to say, 'why sure you can try putting me in my bed, but I'll probably go ballistic. We're fine right here, why change the status quo?' maybe so Ellie, but mummy needs to sleep.
One month old today!
Also, just eaten a curly wurly in bed for about the tenth night in a row. Stops me from falling asleep while holding her. It's fine, breastfeeding cancels it out. I'm winning at life!
Thank you for this post and lots of nostalgia.
What is curly wurly?
A long thin chocolate coated toffee thing by cadburys. Only 115 cal and my go to emergency treat as it takes some chewing. I want one now!
I havent had these in a long time, I must get some!0 -

Confession: Me, either.
In my defense, I have absolutely NOTHING to do. Waiting on other people to do their thing first.
I was pretty productive this morning, but then I got to a problem that took an hour to research and that was that...
Good thing I have that $10 million win from last week to last me the rest of the year....
Sarcasm?
If not, I'll need a handout for the wedding.
Not sarcasm, but not my personal money either. The 11th of December, the big bosses set four of us looking for 8.8 million dollars that they couldn't account for. We found 10 million. The CEO was impressed. I think I can skate by on that for the rest of year, even if I am not very productive some days. I'm getting the really important stuff done.
ETA:if I will the lottery any time soon, I will give you a handout in exchange for an invitation.
Ha ha deal!
I don't know if I mentioned it before, but we decided on a 20's/prohibition themed wedding. This has proven a cheaper but limited choice of dress. But the silver lining is the less choice, the easier the decision.

I’m back in the US! I even got away with a knife in my carry-on. Back on track with eating less, starting today!2

Good luck @SoulOfRusalka , I hope the ed is easier to manage on home soil.
Sleep is still terrible here. I can cope with feeding every two hours if she'd settle down in between, but several times a night it's just a screaming match. We went to bed at 10 and I don't think I slept until 2ish and then she needed feeding again at 4 and 6. The only sleep I got the night before was the two hours husband held her. Won't be swaddled, won't take a dummy (pacifier) or anything that's commonly suggested. Looking forward to Christmas but less so if my brain is fuzz.0 -

Are the parents coming over? Maybe they could take over for a couple of hours so you can nap?1 -

Merry Christmas everyone! I know I am a few days early but I most likely won't have time to be back here for over a week after today. I hope everyone has a safe, fun holiday full of love.
Let me leave you with my favourite Christmas song:

Aww I am sorry you are having such a rough time. Hopefully she will settle down soon.0 -

Original Oreo vote here. I'm so hungry for rubbish now! Emergency night curly wurly isn't going to last much longer.
Buckeye Balls:
Blend peanut butter and butter together. Blend in vanilla.
Add powdered sugar. Blend on low til completely mixed/smooth. (I found this to be too sweet. My Grandma Max used to have graham crackers in hers. I'm going to make another batch and do half pulverized grahams and half powdered sugar.)
Form into balls. Freeze at least one hour.
Dip in chocolate!
Done.
Oh, I used to make these, but we called them peanut butter balls. Not buckeye balls. But then we don't live or didn't live in Idaho!
Oh, and I totally dipped them in chocolate.0 -

Currently my not quite two year old will very enthusiastically help take laundry off drying racks and put folded stuff away. Trouble is he's not very particular. stuff on the rack doesn't have to be dry and stuff going in the drawers doesn't have to be clean. I caught him trying to put away his sister's dirty (poopy!) vests in my T-shirt drawer. Eek. His heart is in the right place!
He also gets very excited about closing curtains. It's a thrill a minute over here.
I totally laughed at this!0 -
2525 pages! I love numbers like this....2

In for the 2525!! Getting ready to head out for my holiday time off. My confession, I now weigh more than I ever have. Bring on the new year so I can start kicking my self in to gear.2

Well I haven't been very successful with weightless this year either,
I think quite a few of us have struggled. Hopefully 2018 will be better! 2
