Jun. 16th, 2025 09:02 amM wanted to watch Big Trouble in Little China on Friday night, which we had to do after the baby was in bed, so we stayed up far too late and I fell asleep on the couch about 20 minutes from the end.
I stumbled into bed afterward, and miraculously, was allowed to sleep in by the baby, who slept herself until 10AM! M and I were both up at that point, and we didn't want her to sleep too long, so we got her up and M got ready to head out and do tax stuff for his small business ID. He was gone most of the day, and the baby and I had a pretty quiet day at home not doing much of anything. M came home in a sour mood, foiled in his attempts to do anything productive by various forms of bank nonsense.
We had another long talk on Saturday night about his mental state, that did turn out to be productive. He feels a lot of pressure (mostly self-induced) and feels like he's failing, and I assured him that he's not and that everything he does is appreciated.
Sunday I was up before everyone, so I cleaned the dishes in the sink and made us all breakfast sandwiches. The baby was up super late again, so I had the morning to myself, which was lovely. She was up before M, and M woke just as I was finishing all the breakfast things, so we had a nice relaxed morning at the house.
Unfortunately, my dad decided to send M a "happy father's day" text and mention reconciling, which was very unwanted. It pissed off both of us, but thankfully it didn't ruin the rest of the day. I have him blocked on all my socials and my phone, so that's probably why he's now attempting to get to us through M. Just stop, man.
M went out that evening to treat Chance to dinner since it was his birthday. Baby and I ate noodles for dinner. Since she'd gotten up so late, she didn't nap all day, and after a bath at 7, she was ready for bed, which meant I had the evening to myself, too! Quite a luxury these days! I laid in bed and ate chocolates while watching TV, and was nearly asleep when M came home. We chatted for a bit, then both retired for the night.
In all, not a bad weekend. The only thing that threw it off was the baby getting a hold of the kitchen shear somehow (how?!) and cutting up the onesie she was wearing. She managed not to nick herself at all, just destroy her clothes, but it freaked M out, so we're going to do a deep clean of the house this evening and wrangle any potential baby hazards.
Short work day today. M has a job interview this afternoon, which I have to be home to watch the baby for, and I have a doctor's appointment directly afterward. The captain gave me the go-ahead to just leave work and not use benefit time for doctor's appointments from now on, which I was hoping for, so now I can accrue as much PTO as possible to cover my "maternity leave", which is really only FML.
Short week, as well, and I am so ready for the long weekend.
