“I will not be capable of 100% Mom Mode that I've been in. And I can't even say 100% because I'll tell you, Adenomyosis, my period, PMS, they knock me out. So there are days where I am parenting from a couch or parenting from bed, and it sucks. And I don't even feel like 100% a parent. I feel like I'm doing the 100% I can do for that day.” — Emily, 13 Days Until Uterus Eviction Day

In This Episode:
We’re starting off the episode with descriptions of the last days of period pains and what it’s like suffering from Adenomyosis/Endometriosis pain month after month

The lack of babysitting I’ve had lately is also getting to me in this episode. It’s been non-stop Mom Mode for weeks, on top of surgery prep and work, work, work mode!
Sorry for the bitter episode. I wanted a raw podcast and here it is, I guess!
Note from Future-Emily:
So far, the lack of pain has led to less stress overall! That said, when I recorded this episode was a particularly stressful period of time, period or not!

“It's not like I wasn't expecting the bill. … We were expecting some extra debt. The number didn't throw us off completely, but it is quite a big number.” — Emily, 4 Days Until Uterus Eviction Day

“Having my 6-year-old bouncing off the walls on a day I need to do a lot more work might not be the best idea. But you know what? It just adds to ‘Finals Week.’ Like your friend in college who says, ‘Hey, I know you're studying for finals, but also it's $2 drink night down at Senior Ponchos....
