I think we might barely get a touch of this snow storm. I’m a little disappointed because I’d love a snow day to play out in the snow with O and put his new boots and snowsuit to use.

If it makes you feel any better, I've heard that temps are supposed to stay dangerously low. My boys will sit by the slider and stare longingly into the snowy backyard, but hell no.

Strep test came back positive. 5 days of antibiotics and I should be good as new. I'm sorry. Did you ask about S?

FFWC I have never seen the Chip & Joanna Gaines show. I didn't even know who they were until about 2 weeks ago.

She didn’t listen to her or anything but said to give her another week and if she’s not improving to bring her in. Speaking of S. She takes after me apparently in the klutzy dept. she was walking over to the counter where the computer is and walked right into it. It’s right at her mouth height so of course her lip started bleeding after she hit it. She was fine after a little bit though.

You all are chatty today! trtlcrzy Glad you got meds and hope you feel better soon. I don't have much input when it comes to houses. I've never owned because of MH's job situation. I do like that I have lived in several different rentals so I know what I like and what works and what I don't like. The home we are in now has a pocket door between the laundry room and foyer and I love it. The last house we were in didn't and I hated having two doors that opened into a very tight space. I dream of building, but that wont happen for a long time, so I don't spend much time thinking about it.

I need to move to another area. You can get a 1bdrm condo for 300k around here. SFH in the school districts we prefer are minimum 500k, but that's for a 1000 rambler that would be gutted. Most in immediate area that are under a million are in need of updates 😣. We are considering me changing jobs and moving to another city where MH works, quality of life and shorter commutes is weighing on us. If we move where we can afford, we both will have long commutes and never be home. But I love our Pre-K and cannot imagine leaving there voluntarily. What are your and yh’s commute times right now? Without kids for me is like 20 min...with 2 dropoffs it's about an hour to go 5 miles. Once kids are at the same spot next year (for only a year) that will help me a lot. MH commutes 45 miles and takes about an hour in the am and 1.5 typically at night. He has a reverse commute, so if we move further out just a little bit, my commute will add at least 15 min and his may drop a few minutes.

I took the kids out in the snow on Monday because C was begging. I didn't check the weather first and the feels like -8degrees felt like -80 and we stayed out for like 10 minutes, if that.

I've gotten it a lot as a kid and adult and it gets worse and worse the older I get. Plus, I feel like the meds don't kick in as quickly as they used to! I hope you feel better, trtl!

I forgot to tell y'all that M was super upset this morning. Why, you ask? Because she lost a doll when we walked the dogs and wanted to go look for it.
Problem is it happened like 2 years ago. HOW DOES SHE STILL REMEMBER THIS?

I have an ugly old Ikea dresser in our guest room closet right now. I found a blog post where someone made the same dresser pretty. People are so creative. I'm hoping I can make it look good for Lue's new room so we don't have to buy something new.

HOW DOES SHE STILL REMEMBER THIS? Lol, kids man. When Landon was like two he threw an EPIC tantrum when we were leaving a restaurants. It was really really bad. Anyway, he’s gotten a balloon at the restaurant and dh told him if he didn’t calm down he would pop the ballon and throw it away. Landon didn’t so dh did. To this day Landon will randomly bring up the day that daddy popped his balloon.

He's a nice guy, he was always very popular. Used to be terrified of spiders. Pete knows him through me and finds it hilarious when their drama is on the cover of US Weekly or something. He's always like, "hey, your friend made the news again."

Yes, there are so. many. shows. of this ilk now. I have seen a couple I liked...the ones in Mississippi that do historical preservation/restoration, the couple in Atlanta...but i have no idea of their names, etc. I like Chip and Joanna and most of the work they do, although typically my favorite part is the exterior transformation. I've also enjoyed seeing them branch out from the "farmhouse/modern farmhouse" look that made them famous...she has been flexing her design muscles with some cool mid-century modern stuff, I saw them do a Mediterranean-inspired home recently that was gorgeous. Not necessarily what I would want in my own home but beautiful work and a nice change of pace.

trtlcrzy Glad you were able to get antibiotics quickly! I have watched plenty of Fixer Upper on HGTV. Nothing they do is my style, it looks good, but just not my thing. I don't really 'decorate' though. H stayed home sick again today. He said he's felling a little better this afternoon. I have a sore throat and decided I will kill him if I get sick and miss work. I've never had strep that I remember, I wouldn't even know if I had it. I've heard it's like swallowing knives? No?

snoopmommymom, yeah I don't we will be out in the snow tomorrow. It's going to be frigid cold with high winds. My boss gave me an art set leftover from our kids civics program and I am hoping that entertains C a chunk of the day.

You should see it now!

My 10 year old still calls my friend Jaimee who came to watch him motn when I went into labor with DD "Jaimee who cut my Cinnabon." I left a Cinnabon for his breakfast. My friend cut it when I let him have it whole. That was 2010.
