Weekend Not So Good

The weekend was definately not relaxing. We went to a baseball game in Reading, PA and my wallet was either lost or stolen from my purse. Considering I was carrying my "Mommy purse" which is one big pit with lots of papers, straws, napkins, etc. I have no idea how it happened. I've never had anything like that happen to me before. We canceled everything immediately while we were at the game, frantically (but carefully) looked through all the places we had been during the one hour I can pinpoint when it went missing and talked to the baseball stadium staff. I know exactly when it went missing because I gave DH some of the MAC money during the fourth inning and then an hour later when I went to get some money out to buy glow sticks for the kids it was gone!

And of course the rest of the weekend was a mess. DH and I have been disagreeing a lot lately. I know we love each other and it will totally blow over, but until then, he gets on my nerves. I'm sure a lot of this has to do with end of the summer stress. I can't wait for DD to start school next Tuesday and for life to get back to normal.

Today, I'm working from home and I'm trying to be upbeat. I have a lot of things to do today, including going to the DMV to get a new license. I'm going to call the Reading police today to see what I need to do, if I should file a police report and such.

So you need to get to the bottom in order to climb back to the top, right? I so hope things go better for me soon. I seem to be having a lot of bad luck lately.

Ugh, that sucks! Atleast you realized quickly and were able to do damage control.

I've been to the Reading Phillies and we had the best time! I thought the pool for the kids was pretty cool (hey that rhymes).

Sweetness was a bit distressed about the fertility stuff too. Oh, BTW, I would love to meet for coffee or whatever (maybe a trip to a local winery? Unless alcohol is somehow not on either of our potential baby regiments).

I know that was a horrible feeling to discover your wallet was gone, but like pp said, it's good you noticed quickly. I am so scatter-brained lately, I probably wouldn't know it for a week!!
Sorry there is some tension; hopefully things will be better once you guys get back into your school-year routine. I've heard from so many parents how crazy the summers can get with the kids having so much free time. Five more years and I'll see for myself!

That really is a lot to take in all at once. Hope things start looking up very soon.

Replacing everything in your wallet must be a pain. Can you at least go great a great new wallet? An excuse to shop?

OMG, that stinks! I'm so sorry, it sounds very suspicious that the wallet was in your bag an hour before it went missing.

I hope your week turns around. I'm sure it will. Hang in there.

I'm thinking of you, thank you for your continued support. I really apprecaite it.

I had my purse stolen once. Not only is it scary, it's a PITA to have to cancel everything and replace everything else. I hope you're doing okay.

That sucks! Make sure you put a fraud alert on your credit report at the different agencies.

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head.  I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true.  This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either.  Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure.  I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week.  This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...
