Good morning. Snow started a little while ago. Today is the first Wednesday T is not going to school but we are stuck home with this weather. I have my kidney follow up appointment at noon so my dad is watching the boys. Gymnastics, hockey, and PTO meeting later but we will see what happens with the weather.

Morning Ladies! Sorry to hear about all the sick moms and kiddos. It's snowy here too, but it takes a lot for us to cancel in Chicago. Snow is our lyfe.
I'm keeping Theo home though, and I'm hoping to work on some valentine's for the kiddos. At first I thought I would just design something, but I am going to try ink and watercolor. I'm rusty, but it's one of my favorite mediums, so I thought this would be a good excuse to practice.
Other than that it's laundry, cleaning, meal prep...you know the exciting stuff.

Shit. I sent her to daycare. Now I feel really guilty. chrisy01 , I think it was a bug just because I got sick. She often does get diarrhea and such when teething and she's been working on some teeth. I would have sent her. +1

wineallthetime, I probably would have sent her too. Esp if she was feeling fine. They'll call if there's an issue. sands42, joelies, and anyone else who's sick, I hope you are better quickly!! I read yesterday but never was able to post... I feel like I had 9000 things to comment on, and now, of course, I remember none of them.

I'm meeting with a vendor today that might be replacing my crappy vendor. This is really happening I'm so excited. Hope it works out, that's been a really long time coming.

wineallthetime We wait 24 hours unless I think it was something they ate. I don't think you're a jerk though, it's always a tough call. Hope you get some good rest today. sands42 glad your bug was short-lived! Fingers crossed tonight is much better, nam2013. joelies has your H been to the doctor yet?

Hi. Chained to my desk, as usual.
Nothing exciting here today and that's how I like it.
I have a chiro appointment this afternoon so Pete will be in charge of dinner. I can only assume that means pancakes and tater tots are on the menu.

Sunny41 I would look for products with caffeine and biotin. Can't hurt to have a blood panel if one hasn't been done recently. ETA: I have a bad spot of alopecia (possibly related to lupus, they haven't decided yet), and caffeine products helped a bit with that. It's been years since I used anything but I'm pretty sure the stuff I had was Nioxin.

Hey. There has to be a legit blizzard for them to cancel school here. I think the school district I live in has maybe had 1 snow day this year. H keeps coming out of her room dressed in different outfits. She’s currently in her swimming suit. Whatever kid.

There was snow on the neighbors pool lol.

Hi all. I hope the sickies feel better soon.
It's hard for me to imagine snow right now. After just getting back from Southern Cal where it was like our summer, and mostly having mild temps now in the 50s it's weird to think of. My photos from a year ago were from our "big snow" last year (all 3 inches). I'd love a snow day but I don't think that's in the cards this winter.
If you haven't seen Allied yet on Amazon Prime it's really good. (Spy WWII movie with Brad Pitt and Marian French last name.) I still need to watch the alien bean pod movie (can't remember the name, I think it has the lady from Enchanted), but I've heard it's boring.

Well, I just called the guy and told him he can have the house. Closing date will be effective June 1st. I don't know if I'm happy or want to cry, yet.

I think we might start the new season of Man in the High Castle tonight.

What are five year-old girls into right now?
Dude has a birthday party to attend and it looks like it's unicorn themed.
What about a mermaid tail blanket thing and something My Little Pony as a gift?

Evie would like both of those suggestions! I feel like LOL Surprise dolls are probably still popular in the 5 year old scene.

LOLs, and both things you mentioned. Cadence is dying for a mermaid tail right now. She even taught the other girls to drag their legs on the ground while they crawl around to pretend they are mermaids. Sorry dc moms.

I should find it because she'd probably like it more now. My niece had one made for her birthday last year. It looks so real.

FFC: I watched youtube videos yesterday on how to find the LOL hamsters. Some of the chicks in these videos are cray cray. One of them was talking about bringing a scale to the store and weighing each of the damn balls. Uh....no thanks.

Dude is crazy about the Shark Tail my dad got him so I assumed the "girlie" equivalent should be a hit.
