cagoldi I had monthly scans as well, due to my age. It was reassuring and nice to see how she was progressing regularly! I talked to my boss and HR. They are offering me a title change (manager), more money and more PTO to match the other company. Our CEO is supposed to let me know tomorrow morning what is going to happen. If the deal happens that everyone is hopeful for, I will stay here. If it falls through, I'll go to the other company. I hate being so wishy washy and leaving people hanging, but I have to make sure I'm making the best choice. If I go ahead and leave, I'd then be leaving a great opportunity here.

This morning Dude was reenacting a scene from Daniel Tiger and he cried real tears pretending that he wanted a toy and I said he couldn't have it.
Then he told me he wants to be on TV. He really made his case.

Cadence apparently can't be bothered to pay attention in swim class tonight. There is a new young blonde lifeguard she's trying to entertain. This girl. Geez.

Thanks for all the hannukah wishes! MH is working tonight so we really didn't even acknowledge it. We'll do family dinner and presents with my family on Sunday
I love that Adam Sandler song too. I used to love when he put out new versions with new names

Guys.....something happened tonight....it might be a miracle or it might be a fluke....but.....
Remember how a few days ago the discussion revolved around bedtime/sleep shenanigans? And I linked an article about weighted blankets?
Well after reading the article I decided that I wanted to try one out for S. Because in addition to her bedtime shenanigans, she has A LOT of sensory issues. So I thought it was worth it to see if it might help any. So I ordered a small ālapā weighted blanket to try it out because it was cheaper than the full size. It was *only* $50ish.
It came today, I put S to bed with it tonight. She was OUT within about 7 minutes. In the SAME position she laid down in! I did not have to go back in there 1 single time to put her back in bed (usually I have to many many many times). If this really helps, I will totally spend the $100 on a bigger one!
Of course this could just be a fluke, and she was just super exhausted from a busy few days....but Iām hoping for the first scenario being the winner! I will report back tomorrow night!

Just catching up with CNN, congrats for your state lahdeedah ! I'm surprised that pedophilia was a bridge too far for members of the death cult. Relieved, but still, it should have never been that close.
