Morning. C’s temp is normal but she’s just out-of-sorts this morning. I’m putting her down for a nap now. We have an appointment with the orthopedist first thing Wednesday morning so just have to make it til then. No big plans today; weather is nice so maybe we’ll get out for a walk or something. Don't hesitate to take her in before if you think something is off

I use the google "Keep" app on my phone. It allows for checklists that are great for groceries or bulleted notes. You can also share with someone a particular note. You can pin them and share them At work I do use Microsoft Note thought. THere is also this "boogie board notepad" that I wondered if I should get myboogieboard.com/

chrisy01 MH and i got in a fight last night because i signed us up for life insurance and he wants to wait three months to lose weight before the medical exam but i want to do it this week and not wait. We went back and forth and he told me i was being morbid and i yelled, “this is real, your dad died at age 38. How do i know it’s not hereditary?! Think how different your life might have been if your parents had life insurance.” He got mad and this morning didn’t even wish me a happy birthday.

Don't hesitate to take her in before if you think something is off Oh I wouldn’t. The pedi said I could bring her in anytime, no appt needed (have I mentioned how much I love our Dr here?) I just meant that we just need to make it with the splint til Wed...I think that is what’s annoying her at this point because it limits her mobility.

snoopmommymom happy birthday!! Hopefully you have a good day and your h gets his head out of his ass by tonight. And life insurance will ask if someone has lost a significant amount of weight recently during the physical, so not sure that he has a good argument..

Happy birthday snoopmommymom! Sorry about the fight—not delightful. Unless he has massive quantities of weight to lose I can’t imagine a few lbs up or down would make much difference.

Happy birthday, Snoop! I'm sorry it started out shitty. I keep telling MH that we need to up life insurance. We rely primarily on his salary and if something were to happy to him, the kids and I would really struggle. He always says, "Well you'd get basically the equivalent to 1 year of my salary". That's not even slightly close to what I'd need. He doesn't see the rush though.

He’s gained like 70lbs since we’ve been married but i highly doubt he will lose that much in 3 months. He’ll just keep pushing it back.

Made cinnamon salt dough ornaments with the kids. I didn't have enough salt, so hopefully they turn out. L screamed and threw the dough the whole time and is back to fighting the nap now. I feel bad since MH looks like shit so I'm trying to keep it nice and peaceful for him. I'm clearly failing miserably.

If something happened I’d have to sell the house because i wouldn’t be able to afford the mortgage payments.

I’d keep pushing forward, esp with his dad’s history. Part of it is the nature of my husband’s job, but excellent life insurance is not something I would want to be without.

As much as this ordeal with my H's knee has completely sucked, he hasn't had a cigarette since the morning of surgery, October 3rd. We had my company Christmas party Friday and drank, and still no cigarette.
I'm worried with him being back at work now, the habit that smoking was for him prior to his leave.
Which also means I quit smoking when I drink since I don't want to do it in front of him, or have them around. This has done amazing things for our bank account!

Obviously, I'll have to run that by my gift wrapper. They're supposed to smell really good. www.aboutamom.com/cinnamon-salt-dough-hearts/

I've never used Shutterfly, but I had a gift card for it, so I thought what the heck? Prints, a magnet, and two canvas prints and I am so frustrated I want to tear my eyeballs out. Is it usually this annoying? Yes

That's great, mwhip! I hope you guys can keep it up, I imagine it's an easy habit to slip back into. You guys should put aside the money you would've spent on cigarettes and do something fun with it after it builds up a bit!

I feel bad since MH looks like shit so I'm trying to keep it nice and peaceful for him. I'm clearly failing miserably. I made a “salt” dough thing with S one time....I accidentally used sugar instead of salt. Lol. I’m not exactly what you would call a wiz in the kitchen. Although I do know the difference between salt and sugar...I just had my head up my ass for some reason. Took me forever to figure out why it wasn’t quite right.
