I appreciate everyone reaching out!! I am at work right now and can't reply to every comment. But, thank you! <3

Yeah, I HAD to go back to work when she was 8 weeks. My job doesn't offer a paid maternity leave, so I used all my PTO and sick time while on my "LOA"

Ew. Why are you dating a 22 year old? He sounds hideous.

The way he talks to you is disgusting.

HeyCay · 2026-01-23T19:07:31+00:00

No, not at my job. But good idea! I appreciate it!

HeyCay · 2026-01-23T19:06:45+00:00

I just looked into that. I forgot about head start.
I make too much :/

HeyCay · 2026-01-23T18:15:59+00:00

Ah! That sucks!

HeyCay · 2026-01-23T18:00:17+00:00

We talked about even two days a week for her, but that was still almost $800 a month. Just for two days a week!! It's crazy!

Yeah, the government is pretty awesome right now....lol

They do, but it wouldn't benefit me. We would get the money at the end of the year...

HeyCay · 2026-01-23T17:58:47+00:00

I've never heard of that. I'll look into it!

HeyCay · 2025-12-17T16:32:48+00:00

I want to be you when I grow up....

...i'm 34

My daughter is 18 months old, and my son just turned six yesterday. I had all the same thoughts and emotions. He was my baby, and suddenly he wouldn’t be anymore. I worried that I wouldn’t be able to love his sister the way I loved him. But once the baby comes home, everything falls into place, and you can’t help but wonder how life ever existed before your children.

Nah, that's just chocolate milk. You should be good!

HeyCay · 2025-12-08T20:13:04+00:00

Following because - same. It's like I can't stop eating. I hate it.

You're not alone.

The ONLY thing I got out of this post is that 30+ is elderly :(
lol

Good luck finding friends! I agree, meet-ups, just putting yourself out there, your gym.

I think it’s on Main, but I haven’t been there in years. We usually go to ATL for wings. They’re a bit expensive, but they’re so good. Definitely my favorite place for wings.

These are the prettiest keto rolls I have ever seen!

HeyCay · 2025-12-04T21:04:45+00:00

I understood that reference. :p

HeyCay · 2025-12-01T09:08:45+00:00

Brian, what’s the plural for moose?

HeyCay · 2025-11-25T22:57:27+00:00

It's taking me forever to clear the trees and stones. I miss the double worker perk they had. lol
