Morning ladies. I had a date with a friend but cancelled for my own sanity, they had Covid cases at their her kids school, she got the kids tested they were negative, but it didn’t feel right, next week it is. I also needed a moment for me, since dd was up most of the night. I wanted to get some water balloons for the kids (I looked chrisy01, no luck…) and will you believe they had the whole Christmas display already up?!? What in the world.

Morning.
I ended up taking both boys to school this AM. We got a message that the bus was going to be delayed due to bus driver shortage and when it wasn’t here 30 minutes after it was supposed to be, I went to drop off. I rather him be to school on time than miss the first part of his day.
Also M2 was ready to go to school. He walked right in class and sat with the kids. Early this summer he would hang on to my leg for the first two weeks at the other place. He likes it. 😅
I have to be productive around the house today. Going to the gym later, but that’s about it.

Hi ladies. I'm in the office today. Nothing exciting. Last night we met the girls' teachers and I have a really good feeling about them both. C made a horse connection with her teacher. M has a long-term sub because her teacher is on mat leave and I think she will do a good job challenging her (she's normally too bored in school).
Last night at riding lessons the girls got to ride bareback and they were thrilled.
M got invited to be on the high speed TKD team. We've talked about it a lot and she really wants to do it. I don't know if the enthusiasm will last, but we figured we'll give it a try. We're committed for a year and it starts Saturday. It's a huge time and $$ commitment. I was fine with TKD 5 nights a week, but adding Saturday mornings plus tournaments is a lot. We'll give it a go for this year.

I have covid. My knee and back hurt the way they hurt when I got vaccinated. Took a rapid this morning, going for a pcr in a few. I hope someday we look back on this week and find it very funny.

tgrimes How did it all go yesterday? When are you traveling back? The movers had to postpone till today because one of the crew members was having flu like symptoms so they are all quarantined. A new group & truck will be here today in an hour or so. The maids are here now. I'll just clean up whatever they couldn't get to because of the boxes, etc. My parents and sister are on the plane. My dad fell in the middle of the night at the hotel trying to go to the bathroom. This time it wasn't really his fault because the door frame is not very wide and he couldn't get his walker through it. thank god we had adjoining rooms. It's still no delightful to have to have to pick him up, put inserts in his depends because it keeps leaking and pull up his pants for him though. I wasn't really ready for all of this. My poor sister.

I'm taking Friday afternoon off. I have an in person interview at 1 (had a call at lunch) and a teams call at 4, both with presidents of the companies. Sounds like they both want to make a decision pretty quickly. The one I spoke to today sounds closer to match my qualifications, but we didn't discuss money.

DD is fine but bored and sad because all her friends started school. DS1 is not happy to be babysitting the little boys downstairs.

I just need to drop off the cable box at Cox and then go to ups and give them the modem, once the movers leave. The old people next door offered for me to spend the night at their house and have dinner with them. I politely declined. lol

kim22, dammit. I'm sorry. I guess lots of board games and tv is in your guys' future. I hope it stays mild and you recover soon. tgrimes, your poor dad. I'm sorry you're dealing with this. I'm glad he'll be in a safer environment soon. You're a rockstar for managing the move. That's a lot of work.

I'm working from home today. I've had 1 email and it was asking me to buy stamps. We have a mail machine, but apparently we need stamps too...
So then I went and bought some jeans and got lunch. Came home and finished Clickbait. I was NOT expecting that ending and I'm not sure how I feel about it. Seemed.....random.
I'll leave in a few to pick up Cadence. Aftercare is closed for quarantine this week.

Just talked to our health department nurse. She’s emailing me everyone’s various quarantine dates and what not. We may get more flash floods tonight so at least I won’t be getting stuck in those.

klong11, I just finished Clickbait. Super weird and random. I really enjoyed the first couple of episodes but it started to get weirder and drag on as it went. The ending was truly bizarre. Also, the whole thing with Nick just escaping death and captivity to travel on foot to the crazy's house was very unrealistic. Who even knows where most of their coworkers live? Overall the journey was mostly good, but the ending was ridiculous.
