Morning! I had a great 3 day weekend and it ended on a productive note. So today is going ok. Esp since my boss is still out on vacation.
I also love that the weather is back in the 70's. Yesterday got up to 92*! Perfect time to get the water table out for L.

We usually eat Bush's baked beans in original, maple cured, or onion but haven't eaten them lately due to now knowing for sure if they have tomato products in them. Since we were avoiding tomatoes while we waited for FD to get allergy tested. Well since it is confirmed she can't have them I contacted the company (I didn't see anything on the label but wanted to confirm) and those 3 are safe for her! The homestyle is not but when I looked at a label I can clearly see in the ingredient list-tomato paste so at least they seem to be pretty transparent and quick to get back to me with my questions!

Good morning! Today is V's birthday, so this Monday is more positive than most.
We celebrated with balloons and Mickey waffles this morning before work/daycare. Tonight we'll go to Chipotle for dinner (because his favorite meal is black beans, rice, corn and "gackamoyee") and probably eat ice cream or a cupcake after.
Hope everyone has a great day!

butlerfanI'm bummed for you. BH has a tomato allergy, but only raw. I have a hard enough time keeping him away from those, and you've got to worry about all incarnations!

butlerfan I'm bummed for you. BH has a tomato allergy, but only raw. I have a hard enough time keeping him away from those, and you've got to worry about all incarnations! yes! and we usually have a garden and do a ton of canning. I think we are skipping it this year since with all the extra meetings and visitations we have with foster care I don't feel we can devote the time needed to the garden.
So we have all this canned spaghetti sauce that we can't eat currently-well unless I do two meals.
And it is hidden in so many things.

billyhorrible I mean pizza and spaghetti and sloppy joes/bar-b-que's!!!!!! We are good about figuring out allergies due to super close friends having celiac and no dairy but so much good food has a tomato product in it.

This morning has flown by. I have a million things to do and am trying not to feel overwhelmed. They sacked someone for poor performance on Friday and he regularly came in on weekends, stayed late etc. I... Don't, so I'm trying to make an extra effort.
This weekend we went up to MA to visit with family. Technically it is my mom's best friend's family, but I have known them all my life and are closer than my real family. I call then aunt, grandma, etc. My "grandfather", who is 94, got diagnosed with a brain tumor a couple weeks ago. Everything is up in the air as to prognosis, but treatment is not feasible given his age. It was bittersweet to watch him with K. I wish I could have gotten her to sit still so I could get a good picture. 😒

We had a busy weekend. We are re-doing our patio in the backyard and we tore up the existing old concrete. Well, MH and parents tore up the old patio, I was too busy getting a foot scrub, full body massage and facial to help at all. We have people coming out on Thursday to pour the new concrete. I'm so excited to finally have a nice place to sit out there!

I didn't get nearly everything I wanted to do done this past weekend. I feel like I'm still swimming in a mess. I did get rid of lots of old baby things and 3-4 bags worth of junk we don't use. I still can't convince H to go through his crap.

Thanks everyone for the hair pats. It sucks but at 94, you're counting days.
In good news, I just got the closing documents for our heat loan. We are getting a ductless air system installed so we don't fry this summer. They are financing almost the entire thing. Although I hate to take on more debt, the payments are very manageable and will increase the value of our home.

I have a monthly massage package....and I haven't had a chance to go since January and it is sorely needed. But they roll over so I don't lose them but I finally have one scheduled for Thursday. I'm hoping to try to do one every 2-3 weeks to get them used and get my back especially back in shape.

There is an amazing spa around here that does a 1.5hour facial that includes a 1/2hour foot treatment. It is afuckingmazing but $$$$$ so I've only be a couple of times. In my fantasy world when I retire I want to go spa hoping. Basically live in a bathrobe while people cater to me.
