Thursday Thoughts

It's Thursday, and hopefully as you read this I either have a snow day or delay (update: I don't), which would be super weird considering the last three days the temps have been in the upper 60s and lower 70s, but this tired and sick teacher will take a snow day please and thank you!

I figured I'd share some random thoughts floating around in my head lately:

~I wish parents were more understanding about scheduling meetings. We had parents at my school who are requesting a meeting with 8+ staff members (half of which are not based at my school) for two days later. And they did it at 10pm, and then told us that if we couldn't meet, the next time they could meet was in 2 weeks and that's "unacceptable." I know some doctor's offices you can't get in with 2 days notice and that's only coordinating ONE doctor. #giveusabreak

~I wish I could somehow block out all politics-related stuff from every aspect of my life when I want/ need to. I feel like I can't escape it: it's on the news in the morning and evening, it's on social media, it's on the internet, and then it ends up in my dreams at night. I need a bliss bubble that I can escape to from time to time. #ineedtoescape #happyplace

(Case and point: over the weekend I had a dream that KellyAnne Conway was trying to debunk all of the items on my baby registry....can you tell the two things that are at the forefront of my subconscious? lol)

~Baby girl has been super active lately. On Monday night, I was laying on my side trying to fall asleep (made more difficult with a stuffy nose), and baby girl was practicing for the olympic gymnastics team I think! I put MG's hand on my stomach and he was like "whoa! What is she doing in there?" I will admit, feeling those kicks and movements is a bright spot to my day. Sometimes I'm sitting at my desk and I just stop what I'm doing and feel her moving. It's the best.

~I got a massage yesterday after work and it was much needed. Especially after they cancelled my appointment two weeks ago and then made me wait 2 weeks to get in. I'll be excited to get a regular deep tissue massage (laying on my stomach) after baby is born.

~I half-ass watch the Bachelor now. I feel like I know almost nothing about the girls because the only thing they show are Nick and the girls making out and snippets of superficial convos. I know a LOT about Corinne who I still think is atrocious. I'm pretty over this season already. #Bachelorfail

~MG and I signed up for a childbirth class with a friend of mine from work (the one who is a week head of me) and her husband in about a month. #shitjustgotreal
