YAAAAAAAY!

[conuly]

I've got pads coming in the mail! I've got pads, coming in the may-ul, I've got paaaaaads, coming in the maaaaaaaaail, and nobody is getting a present this year!




Well. I am! From me! I guess there's always Little Christmas, right?

I also know I'm getting a bra from Angelique. It was apparently her idea, either because I'm only ever able to find one at a time (that's an ongoing issue) or because she thinks it's fun to stick it in the freezer.

(Yes, I also realize I have a problem. I'm not buying any more pads anymore. For a while. I'll just practice making them out of old pajamas which I've bled on anyway, so I don't care about them.)

Edit: Actually, I have *fortunately* bought most of these presents already. So most people will get something, and I really did already intend to push Little Christmas more, because some years the niecelings go up to their father's family for Christmas (which is just as it should be, of course), and our family has always (eh... that's how my mother spins it, I don't remember it being *that* important) done Little Christmas, so my mom can be happy every year too. (Not that she *will* be, but we can only hope.)

I was gonna say -- you couldn't bleed enough to use all those, at the rate you are going!

[conuly]

I actually don't have that many!

I've got three pantiliners, one regular length/padding pad, one extra (but not overnight) pad (without PUL), and three overnights. I have another (regular) pad and liner set on the way, and two more pads from another seller, and these two. I have two sea pearls, and two on the way so I can use them more while out and about. (People might object if they see me rinsing them in a public sink, and really, I get why.)

I really want to not have to wash laundry midweek, ever. That is my goal.

I've gotta ask, doesn't it make you a little sad to use these pads for the first time? Like that brand new box of 64 crayons, all perfectly sharpened and wrapped, that you don't want to start using because they'll no longer be perfect?

[conuly]

No, strangely. But I do get that feeling when putting a clean diaper on the kiddos. And they're disposable ones, too.

[tsukikage85.livejournal.com]

That's pretty funny. :) Maybe you're just anticipating the "fun" of having to change them again?

[conuly]

Perhaps :)

Actually, with Evangeline, if I'm on the ball, she hardly ever to never dirties a diaper while she's awake. She goes on the toilet pretty consistently. She can even sometimes *tell me* when she needs to, which is nice.

[tsukikage85.livejournal.com]

So I've read. :) That must be nice.

[conuly]

Yes and no. It's a bit harder, it'd be easier to let her pee herself and change it on my time. But it's better.
