NEEDING to vent.

It’s Gone! I’ve looked everywhere for the past three weeks. Church, cars, my entire house got turned upside down. Everywhere in between…. So I’m calling it. It’s lost for good and never coming back. I am so beyond bummed. My sling was literally my life saver. It was the best second set of hands ever. Kaylee has lived in this thing for over a year, and I was so looking forward to using it with Regan. Kaylee loved the sling and would often get it out of the diaper bag and bring it to me so I could wear her. Yes I still carried her in it baby belly and all. It holds up to 35 lbs. and she’s not even 19 lbs. I loved the color, the fabric, having a variety of carrying positions, everything about it. It was so nice being able to clean, cook, do laundry, use the bathroom, or hold her for long stretches of time without killing my arms or back. Everything takes at least twice as long when you only have one hand. And even if we had the $40 to spend, I’d be mad at having to spend it for something I should not have lost. Let’s face it $40 goes a long way when you are poor. And I’m one of those people who hates having to spend money over and over on the same thing (except food and diapers of course). I like getting the most bang for my hubbies hard earned money. It’s part of the getting to be a stay at home Mommy. OK there, I’m done! I’ll get over losing my spare hands eventually…. maybe.
