Something's Wrong with This Picture

Today was picture day at school.

I saw one student wearing the same shirt as I wore to work yesterday.

And I saw another student wearing the same skirt I recently got at Old Navy.

Something is very, very wrong with this...

As a side note, they showed me my picture after they took it so I could approve it. That's good, right?

Tips for Breastfeeding Success (from a mom who learned the hard way)

Image
*I have had a couple of friends say they've sent my post to several women, and saying I should get paid for this post 😆 Honestly, I just want other moms to have a better experience than I had. Sifting through all the info in the newborn fog was SO hard. So I'm genuinely happy to compile all this and update it periodically if it will help anyone have a better experience than I had. BUT if you found this helpful at all and would like to buy me a coffee, my Venmo is @janaeandmatthew  (thank you!). Don't feel obligated. This post exists for free on my personal page for a reason. Thanks for reading and thanks for sharing!* So, you're either here because you know my breastfeeding struggle the last 15 weeks, because you're expecting and I want you to be more prepared than I was, or because you are trying to see if you've missed anything worth trying in your own struggle.  Let me just say right off the bat that we all have different capacities. We all have different le...

November GBOMB

Good The rallying. After losing my job, the number of coworkers who reached out to me via text or Instagram just to express their dismay was really kind. I felt the love and support so strongly. So many people came out of the woodwork to offer me connections and ideas. I love the way sharing hard and vulnerable moments allows others to support us; it really is an opportunity to connect.  Haircut. She went two inches shorter than I asked her to, and repeatedly emphasized the importance of the length. I am still not really used to it but feel like I am getting the hang of it, and at least it doesn't take as long to wash or brush, even if I do have to style it more often than I want to.  Severance. I did get one month of severance plus payout on my scheduled PTO, which my company doesn't normally do. While I wish I hadn't lost my job at all, I'm grateful I don't have to panic financially for a little bit.  Christmas decorations. We decorated on November 24. As I sit he...

Facts

Fact: As difficult as I know it will be, I'm yearning for a family and for motherhood right now. Fact: I miss all of my friends I used to celebrate Christmas with. We used to have a really fun time, and we were all really good at giving good gifts to each other. Fact: I love giving gifts. I consider it a talent of mine. But I only really enjoy it when I know people well and have put a lot of thought into something they'd enjoy. I have almost no one left outside of my family who I feel I can do that for. Fact: Someone stole my 3-hole puncher. Honestly? Why would you want to steal that? Fact: I was very mad at and mean to my students today. I feel bad. Fact: Almost no one came to Enrichment tonight. Fact: Elf is a funny movie, no matter how few people are there (and no matter how many times you see it). Fact: I'm finding joy in that it's December and there is no snow! Fact: My heart is still broken. I don't know what it will take to unbreak it. Fact: I want something...
