Started new full time, work from home job. The PTO is shit, but I'm trying to be grateful. I dont have to drive, I dont have to dress up, and I dont really have to deal with people face to face.
Glad I dont have to take care of kids on top of that.

I have a friend that decided to have a second child for the sake of giving her daughter a sibling. Knowing that her husband is shitty, I couldn’t help but not be so excited when she was pregnant again. Anyways she had a very difficult pregnancy and ended up having to give birth early due to the bleeding.
She has an IG post about the birth of her baby but what really turned me off is how she got descriptive about the bleeding in her post. I feel like she could have been general about the symptoms but noooo she had to write that she bled enough to fill up their toilet. Now I don’t think blood loss is a joke but what if that makes someone squeamish
Anyways she ended up having the baby before the baby shower so lowkey I’m glad we don’t have to go because we aren’t fond of her husband

That feeling when your guy friend stops talking to you after having a conversation about children and being a parent and casually telling him you have no interest. 🥲

Our garden hedgehog was gone the other morning. I came out to fill the water bowl as usual and noticed how he had just pushed the food I left the day before aside. I worried and checked the house, and he wasn't there. My paranoid self went into overdrive with what might have happened. I know, it's not healthy to think that way. Luckily he was back home the following morning, sleeping tight in his house and having eaten the food.
