Fuck this week already.
Dad is out of surgery, heading back to the hospital to see him in recovery. Then he'll be moved to a room for an overnight stay. Hoping this is all good and fine and well. After this month, I don't really feel like losing any more family members to Death.

could be a growth spurt? there's a big one right around 2 years (give or take a few months) and my kids would always sleep like shit during those times.
my wife discovered some random doc's theory on "wonder weeks", which are like mental growth spurts that usually come shortly after physical ones. It's certainly possible that he's in one of those. Our daughter did something similar but she never woke up screaming.
There is plenty of info on the intertubes about two year sleep regression associated with separation anxiety. The challenge is 1) how do we survive it until it passes, and B) How do we make it pass sooner? He's always been a great sleeper and our routines have not changed recently. We traveled recently but this kicked off a week after we got home...

yea the neurological development can trigger it as well. ya just gotta wait it out really.
Also relevant to this is that first class tickets garner a 70 lb bag allowance instead of 50 lbs. Makes sense to at least check prices for the different fare classes given this and the overweight bag fee that might otherwise be incurred.
WTF? 70lb bag??
I pack lightly. Somehow the wife manages to pack suitcases for her and the girls that routinely end up at 50 if not 55 or 60 lbs.WTF? 70lb bag??
I told her that next time we travel (Seattle, December) I will be packing for all of us, and not carting around all the shit she thinks is necessary for the kids (e.g. taking an old iPhone with a white noise app on it instead of a physical white noise box).
I don’t have one, but was interested to read that one must disconnect the battery from said “smart luggage” before stowing it as a carry-on. The whole “standalone lithium-ion batteries must be carried on” rule seems super arbitrary—if it’s going to catch on fire, it’s going to catch on fire.
it's more of a risk if it's connected and can draw current. i've spent a lot of time reading IATA regulations, specifically in regards to lithium batteries.
when the wife and i went to hawaii we were over the limit b/c we had our snorkeling gear.WTF? 70lb bag??
mouth has been hurting, as has neck and back on the same side. suspect it's an infection in the tooth where they told me i needed a root canal a year ago and i never did anything about it. hrmf.
21st anniversary today; going to dinner tonight.
hot as balls here. haven't ridden since sunday. hoping to get out locally tomorrow afternoon or maybe somewhere in the hills this weekend.
been trying to plan trip to maine. wife wants to go up to moosehead lake to take a canoe trip to see moose, which is fine other than that it's 4 hours from my parent's place. we also haven't secured pet/housesitters for the trip yet. fuck.
we are acquiring neither a new tv nor a new car . . . on those fronts i've got nothin'. about to pull the trigger on a new-ish fork, as i discovered that my 36 is cracked at the pinch bolt clamp on the lowers. found a decent deal on a takeoff 36 that's probably not much more than getting a replacement lower from fox (my current fork's stanchions are also all buggered anyway), although i'll have to boostinate-adapt my front hub.
carry on, good sirs!
where are your parents located? also, been going to Maine since i was a kid. have yet to see a moose in the wild.
Just come out and drive around Colorado. We're pretty lousy with swamp donkeys right now...
Also - confirmed(ish) sightings of *real* wolves in Colorado. Grizzly bears can't be too terribly far behind.
I'll never win a parenting award but my advice is ignore them.
The only cure for separation anxiety is forcing them to accept being alone.
You can't soothe that into them, they need to figure that out for themselves.
I saw a moose standing on shoulder of 1-95 outside york a month ago.
Pretty sure his parents live in Damariscotta (mid coast)
Flies haven't been bad where I've been. Mosquito population is very healthy but with enough Repel they just bounce off you.
our place is farther up north than yours i think, we're about 45 mins west of bangor.
Get it pulled, nao.
... only to discover that boss not only knew about those meetings, but was actually sitting in them. The urge to FTS is strong today.Boss just tried to make me feel guilty for not having invited myself to meetings I didn't know existed. That's how we roll here.
Yeah we're outside Bath on coast.
We used to hit Allagash late july every year and flies typically 'ok' by then.
yea, we usually don't go up until august, and typically the flies have subsided by then. Bath is nice. I have a cousin farther up the coast near Blue Hill.
Yep - @dan-o's right. Parents are on the peninsula Damariscotta's on - town is a tiny little place called Round Pond. We've been going up to that area since I was born; rented a cabin in New Harbor when I was a baby; bought a cabin in Damariscotta when I was little kid; and then they bought the current place, with plans to retire to it, when I was 9. It's fun to take my kids up there. I know the spot @dan-o's place is - I think I got my first little dinghy from some guy that lived there. I lived in West Bath for a year when I was in college. It was a pretty sweet A-frame on the tidal river. Great party house for senior year.
Apparently this place on Moosehead lake does sunrise and sunset canoe trips to spots they know the moose go. Wife has been wanting to do it for years. *le sigh*
you complain about the drive now, but when you start getting that far north its absolutely gorgeous. (asides from the crippling poverty)
That's fair, but when the kid is on the verge of hyperventilating or throwing up because of the anxiety, then you really need to intervene. You aren't doing the kid any favors by leaving them to their fears until they barf and pass out.
I do agree that teaching them to deal with their anxiety or manage their fears is the best resolution, but we're talking about a two year old....he doesn't know and he doesn't understand- he senses fear and the only resolution is to go to mom and dad. The new aspect is the fear and where it's coming from, which is probably just the mental growth...
strange things are afoot at the sandwich household
Where does the ///deck go?
Directly to Gehenna.
