Everything is closed here but MH has to go to work. 🙄
M just wants to see snow again. I’m thinking we’ll just get ice at my house though. She wants to build a snowman.
Some of Houston might get some though.

Morning, all! I went to bed at 9:45 last night. It was glorious! I have my first OB appointment today, and I'm wondering what we're going to cover. She started doing these early appointments since my last pregnancy, and it's not nurse intake or a physical which used to be the first two appointments.

Some of Houston might get some though. M is dying to build a snowman too and all we get is ice and powdery snow that won't hold. Of course he doesn't understand why the 6 inches in our yard can't be a snowman.. |

The 2-18 inches perdicted last week was like 1. Maybe 2. The "light flurries" Sunday and Monday dropped 6 inches on us. I think our weather people need to pursue other careers.

Morning!
We have the furniture repair people coming this morning to pick up our China cabinet and chair that were damaged in the move. (Yes, the move that was in July. The wheels of moving claims turn slowly 🙄)
After that we just have a couple errands to run, and I’m making lasagna for dinner. Exciting day around here!

I'm super annoyed with our branch staff. The sidewalk is a solid sheet of ice. They threw down salt and it's melting it so they need to get a shovel and scrap it up and salt again before it refreezes (it's 6 degrees!) and they all just stare blankly at me and repeat "we put salt down" Okay when the old lady falls and breaks her hip, be sure to tell her that. I'm not branch staff but I'm about to run over to the grocery and get a damn shovel.

Morning. I was up throughout the night because mosquitoes have been feasting on my ankles and i can’t. Stop. Itching. Or maybe it’s not mosquitos because i haven’t seen a single one, but regardless, it’s brutal.
We’ll head to the beach this morning to collect shells, then probably swim this afternoon. Today is going to be he warmest day of the week and then it goes downhill. Not sure what we’ll do the next couple days when it’s cooler. I did not pack appropriately.

trtlcrzy How is H today? snoopmommymom I wouldn't know how a psychic works? Like, do you go in with questions or just let her do the talking? It would be fun, but I'd also be worried she'd tell me something that would cause me anxiety! Can't wait to hear how it goes! Stay safe today everyone in the crap weather! It was -6 on my drive in. The windchills this morning make it feel like -15 to -25. H was no excited to work outside in this shit today.

So far she’s bouncing around the living room and tormenting her sister so I’m guessing she’s fine. I haven’t taken her temp or anything. We have a high today of 8, which is better than yesterday’s -1. After today we are on a warm up trend for a few days 🙌🏻 |

Morning. I couldn’t shut my brain off last night. I finally fell asleep a little after 2, so I was not ready to get up at 7 when my children were. I’m definitely napping when S does while H is at school this afternoon. I’m also back on the wagon today with my healthy eating and exercise. I pretty much just let it all go during this weekend and now I’m ready to start fresh. So far I’ve lost 4lbs so I’m motivated to keep it up.

We're having spotty snow this morning with a much more significant storm coming in tonight. I'm still hoping that everybody will have an early dismissal today.
In-house news, the real estate agent is coming at five and pictures are scheduled for tomorrow at noon. I am an anxious mess about all of this.

L is easy, but C has always been the kid that needs to run/jump/climb/SOMETHING. He's got so much pent up energy and if he doesn't get it out he is wild and really aggressive. |

Morning. I made it to work.. it's 9:40😖. J woke up at 11:30 and would NOT stay in his bed. I ended up sleeping on the floor next to him and then he decided to sleep with me on the floor. I don't know what's going on, he often comes in and we take him back to bed without issue. He did end up in our bed around 5 after N woke up and he then refused to get out of bed until 8:25! I'm dreading his teenage years of sleeping in. So I feel like a zombie right now.

Last night when I was watching tv I saw an ad where someone asked Alexa to start their Jeep. So I just checked and I can do that with my Hyundai! So cool!
