C is napping and DH took B up to the grocery and hardware stores; the house is so nice and quiet I should probably do some tidying up but I mostly just want to sit and luxuriate in the silence.

Went to the grocery store. MH's list: oj, chocolate milk, cookies, easy mac, spaghetti, frozen curly fries, wine. He's clearly on a health kick.

TTMA waterproof mascara. I have a tube from clinique, but it still comes off under my eyes by the end of the day. Not cool. slenle, oh no! I hope it's nothing serious. I have 100 different brands – some from places like Sephora, and some from CVS, so I can't tell you which brands, but look for tube mascara. I never have mascara running down my face. It's incredible.

Way to go sands42 ! That's awesome You should be proud...I can only imagine how tough it is balancing school and kids, esp. when your H is gone for big blocks of time. cagoldi I'm still WTF'ing the lady who ran into you. Glad there wasn't too much damage. Also, didn't your cat have a bunch of teeth pulled already? (maybe I'm thinking of somebody else.) If yes, how many are left?? That is one thing I can say about the lab...she drives us nuts but thankfully she has typically been healthy as a horse and doesn't need much beyond routine vet visits and preventative stuff (excuse me while I go knock on wood). We have friends whose labs have been $$$$$...knee replacements, ACL surgeries, GI stuff, cancer, you name it. Yep, he had a bunch of teeth pulled a few years ago. Poor guy is going to be the toothless wonder. I don't think he'll have many left once these two are gone. We only give him wet food, so he should still be able to eat just fine.

I’m watching Harry Potter. Anybody who can’t wait to read (than watch) this with their kids? S loves Harry Potter. He’s only seen the 1st 2 but he’s obsessed

When I go upstairs, I'll link some brands.

C has show and tell on Monday and the theme is kindness so he had to do a kind act and write/draw about it on a heart for the kindness tree. It says "I hug Max" I had to tell him what letters to write but he did so good. His picture of Max is odd. He also cut it out all on his own. Kids growing up!

We had our open house today. Apparently we had a lot of traffic and some very positive feedback. Charlie is miserable – like shrieking miserable. He threw up his second dose of the z-pack, but took a replacement this afternoon with a popsicle. I really need the sickness and the stage to be over because it is difficult. We previewed Josie's art show today, and then had halal tonight (Is that the right way to say it?). Either way, it was delicious. The kids are asleep, I just put a honey mask on and it's tingling like crazy. I'm gonna go grab a snack and settle in to watch Grey's.

@flamingos and anyone else, do you know of a great soft tan paint? L's new bedroom doesn't get much natural light, so we'd like to keep it soft in hopes of brightening it up. Planning on really soft tan walls and white trim. Bedding is blush. Will add some really soft gold and possibly a little raspberry accents throughout. Sorry, just seeing this! I will look in my fan-deck tomorrow when I have some good daylight and let you know.
