We have no plans. I need to get groceries and we are going to my moms for dinner tonight, but otherwise, it should be a quiet one.

Morning.
I fell asleep early but had a weird night. I had a dream that we were moving out our old house but I still had so much in the house and the new owners were moving in any minute. I woke up MOTN feeling stressed and full of anxiety with an accompanying headache. So weird. I never fell back into a good sleep and I couldn’t tell if the dream came back or if I was just subconsciously thinking about all that I had to do before the new owners came.
Nothing planned today. It’s wet and rainy and the boys have haircuts later. I’ll just be doing some chores around the house. I have coffee in hand and took something for the headache.
Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Good morning. We have a puppy social at noon and then we are going to Home Depot to find something to block off under our deck temporarily until the dog is more trained or we decide how to permanently block. We put up some plastic chicken netting but Lola ran into it and it came right down. I need to look at it and see if it tore because all the staples are in place.
After that we need to get C soccer cleats, stop by the grocery store, and pull out flashlights and candles for tomorrow. I would love to get a pedicure today but I don’t think there will be time.

I need to finish my final case study at some point today. I was an idiot and let my batter die on my laptop last night so I took it as a sign to stop. I’m taking L to get his haircut and to pick up something at Carter’s. I promised L we would watch a movie together. Not sure of plans tomorrow. I guess it depends on if I get my case study done today.

Morning. We were supposed to do the heart walk this morning but didn’t end up going. I woke up too tired. DH is at a charity golf tournament for Huntington’s for most of the day. It’s supposed to be cooler today, mid 70s so I’ll get the kids outside at some point.
stay safe east coasters!

I'm going to work out, visit with my mom, grocery shop, then have the hip-happiest camping trip since Bing Crosby danced with Danny fucking Kaye.

Hello! H picked up the kids and took them to a fun family outdoor work party. He's near my parents so I'll meet him there to get the kids back and we will stay for a bbq.

I am back at my regular house now. I packed up all the outside stuff and headed home this morning. It won’t be too bad I don’t think but the road floods in a drizzle by me so there was no point in sticking around. C’s belly is still bad so I called the doctor and they are changing his meds now.

inthekitty He likes it so far. Says he doesn’t want to go back to the college life. He still has a lot to learn since he doesn’t have a milit background, but it’s all going well.

I just got home from a hair appointment. My mil is on a golfcart ride with the kids. A is at an all day tractor pull. I want to go to jcpenny and see if I can find a new bed spread. But would rather not take all my kids. We'll see. May just chill at home all day.

My mil took them by my moms and my mom told the boys she'd take them to a pool party without bothering to ask me first. So now both boys and my mom are mad at me... my moms mad because I told her I don't trust her to actually stay by the pool and watch them. So she's like "fine, tell them I'll be down later to swim with them" I told her fine but I'm not telling them since she likes to make promises to them and not follow through. And I get stuck with screaming and crying kids when it's not my fault.

My niece that is the same age as M in Houston area has covid. Her first day of school was Wednesday and woke up with a sore throat Friday. She wears her in a mask when out and at school, but not sure how diligent she is at keeping it on since she is in the minority of mask vs. maskless. It’s possible she picked it up at a gym camp she was at Mon/Tues. She was exposed at camp and at school.
She seems ok and just praying she stays that way. My sister and older niece tested negative, but they are going to go test again in a few days. My older niece is staying at her dad’s for now while my sister is quarantining with the 7 year old.

My sister spontaneously asked DH and I to go out to dinner so her teenagers watched my kids and we went out to eat. They were having a hard time putting V to bed so we stopped home so I could get her to sleep and then we are going to a place like top golf. It’s been so long since I had a night out with adults and no kids. lahdeedah I hope it stays mild and no one else gets it.

Hi! I read late last night. Hope you're niece is okay, lahdeedah! I hurricane prepped by Instacart-ing from two separate grocery stores while shopping at another. We have enough snacks to last us until 2024. The lines were insane. The kids swam and played outside yesterday while my and I cleared off the deck of furniture and plants. The predictions for ct weather don't seem awful but the predictions for losing power and the restoration times are terrrfying (50% of the state for 8-10 days and that was a conservative estimation). Fingers crossed for the rest of you east coasters!

The sickness is still ravaging our household. Dd fell victim last night and dh a couple of hours ago… to give dd and dh some peace I took ds and baby girl to the shop to get some gym shoes and some groceries. I got a coffee to go and a croissant for ds, is was nice to take a stroll together. Ds thought his plain with gym shoes were boring, so with the help of some textile markers I turned them in to okapi shoes. The things you never ever thought you would do in a lifetime 😂.

Right now we have no wind but lots of rain and the power has flickered twice in the last 10 minutes. Fingers crossed it stays on.
