guster oh This is Us was so good, hard to watch but so good. I was able to watch it last night and I was a mess. I feel the show is so relatable with a parent death and the wave of emotions, that never end.

guster Hit us with all the house and moving thoughts, such an exciting time. Having lots of time to pack would be good because you can really go through your stuff and purge as you go.

I fee the show is so relatable with a parent death and the wave of emotions, that never end. That's pretty much it. It's all of that time before Jack's death -- the memories and how brief the time is -- and the realization that he isn't coming back that hits me so hard

Good morning. Feeding the baby then going to my grandma's. She keeps calling my sister's and I crying that she doesn't like the live in lady. I haven't met her but everyone who had likes her. Grandma first insisted the lady was stealing things (but can't name any specific things) and bow says she's "trying to get me to tell her all the family secrets." Not sure what the family secrets are. Hopefully, the baby will cheer her up.

Morning. M ran into my room at 11:30 last night. Missed the toilet & threw up all over the floor and my Kate spade purse. Got that cleaned up and slept in her room. She got sick only 1 more time but I didn’t sleep at all. When I did drift off I’d be woken up by a punch to the face or a kick to the back. Super awesome. When MH got up I asked him to take H to daycare on his way to work. I went to get him ready and he had thrown up all over his crib. Not sure when that happened. It was a lovely shade of purple. Don’t think I’ll be getting those stains out... So the 3 of us are home.

That's also what I was thinking. He did enjoy a two week long. To the summer, so we're down significantly, but I know that there are always more things that can go. Our real estate agent got us a closing date of April 30 which legally means that we can postpone for up to 30 days and we can essentially stay here until late May. I know that the market will begin to have more inventory in the next couple of weeks, so I won't feel as limited as I do right now.

Sunny41 it can work, so long as you're cleaning it multiple times a day. We have 2 for our 2 cats but they're weird. They both use the same one at different times of the year. So during the good weather months they use the one closest to the food and it's also closest to the doggie door. Because they come in, eat, poop and go back out. During the winter they use the one in my parents bathroom at the opposite end of the house. Because they sleep on their bed during the day since it's the warmest room in the house lol.

Morning! I'm working from my couch because my cough is still terrible and I don't want to annoy and/or infect my coworkers. I watched This is Us and the ending - the little boy piece - made me sob. I did NOT see that coming. Sigh... What a way to start the day.
Anyhow Colin is doing great. Honestly he's been pretty much back to normal since he woke up on Saturday morning. No fevers and his cough is less frequent and sounds less painful. He'd definitely been sick for days before his diagnosis, I just feel awful for not realizing how sick he was. But on the brightside, Chase and DH both seem fine.
I need to duck out at some point for more cough drops. My throat is so sore from this cough but at least it's nowhere near my chest. Looking on the brightside here, as much as possible!!

Good morning First, sorry tgrimes. That sounds terrible. This whole week with my sick baby I kept thinking about you and others whose kids have been sick a lot and thinking about how difficult and stressful that must be. I hope the rest of your day is vomit free. Second, PLEASE spoiler anything for This is Us! I fell asleep before I could watch it, and I won't get to watch it till after the kids go to sleep tonight!!

Thanks - as soon as I saw y'all talking about it, I tried to avert my eyes... so hopefully, nothing seeped in I tried so hard to stay awake, but I had almost no sleep this weekend (See earlier sick kid comment) , and I just couldn't do it!. I am trying to avoid all media today, and told everyone in my office to stay away!

Morning. I’m sitting at the doctors. Just finished my mammo and soon I will be doing the breast US. It snowed last night and then started again right before I had to leave the house with massive fluffy snowflakes. So pretty and the drive wasn’t too bad. I’d guess we had an inch or so before it started up again and I’m not sure how much more we are supposed to get. tgrimes I hope the kiddos stay vomit free the rest of the day yummeecookee report back on the shape tape. Did you get the hydrating or matte?

Cleaned up both kids rooms and closets drawers. The kids weren’t cooperating so I put them on ds’s bed with a portable DVD player 🤷🏼♀️. I got a lot done. Wednesday I’m going to do the pantry, kitchen & wardrobe this weekend. #donewiththemess

Morning! We watched the game at my sisters last night so the kids were up until almost 10. I knew they would sleep in so I packed breakfast for them to take to daycare and was completely ready before I had to wake H up a little after 8. Kid was tired. N slept in until about 7:45 too. Surprisingly, I made it to work on time. I was going to let them sleep as long as possible and come in late, but a couple people are off today and I knew our part time consultant would be waiting without keys to get in, so I made myself get here. I feel like i could fall asleep in a minute, and I think our whole house is coming down with something.

Well that stinks tgrimes. Although I was somewhat happy to hear H got sick too so it isn't just M's GI stuff. Silver lining...

I have a black heart because I didn’t cry or even get choked up by TIU last night. It was sad, yes, but I feel like the build up dulled it for me. The end was definitely a plot twist.

There was no traffic this morning because its a teacher in service day and so many people took the day after the game off. I got in an hour early. Trying to decide if I leave an hour early or let the time build up to take later. It's only 10:30 and I am super bored because no one is in to give me work so it may be a good day to cut early. guster I love packing. Mostly because I love purging and it forces you to go through every little thing. We moved every 2-3 years as a kid and although the military would pay for packing and unpacking, my mom only did it once. Things got broken and the process took forever. You have a lot of time so I would just concentrate on doing a room every two weeks or something.

Morning all.
At work today and dragging ass for some reason. I feel tired, physically and emotionally. Blerg.
Also, mid morning yesterday it dawned on us that it was our anniversary, lol, clearly we're both into being sentimental.

tgrimes I cannot like that post. Poor kiddos. I hope there is no more puke today and they feel better. I have not watched one single episode of This Is Us. I wanted to start it after everyone around me talks about how good it is, but never did because of all the crying everyone does. If I know something will make me cry, I avoid it until I'm in the right head space. I probably won't start it until our next move when I have a lot of alone time at home.

Hi everyone. Sitting here and surprisingly not feeling super tired out. We were at my dads last night for the SB and got home pretty late. I mostly feel bad for the kiddos. They were bright eyed and bushy tailed this AM but I feel like it will catch up w them as the day goes on. I’m also doing a test drive of shape tape foundation today. Yes! I've been waiting for this! Are you trying matte, moisturizing, or both? I got lots of compliments on my complexion last night so my Born This Way and highlighter combination must be working or the other moms at the party were way too eager to tell me I look great so I don't feel like a hideous pregnant wildebeest.
