I didn’t like the ones with the body suit attached because Z would outgrow it quicker. @lastunicorn I used bloomers under all her dresses.

guster You are momming like a champ today. Here you are getting your nails done, then deciding what to make for dessert tonight. Meanwhile my kids will be lucky to get a hot meal for dinner, let alone a homemade dessert.

I'm meeting my coworkers for lunch. Tonight I have a Tricky tray for the big kid's school. DD told me last night she's having trouble seeing the board at school so I made her an eye doctor appointment for Monday. My vision sucks so I figured this was coming with at least one kid. My contact prescription actually improved when I was pregnant but now I feel like one eye doesn't see well enough so I asked if he can recheck mine when I bring DD. They told me that is an actual thing, eyes changing during pregnancy. I had no clue what Tricky Tray was until i moved up here.

I don't think vino has been here for a few days? I checked to make sure she was still alive yesterday. And she is!

Meanwhile my kids will be lucky to get a hot meal for dinner, let alone a homemade dessert. The other day I saw one of these tasty videos that uses potatoes and parchment paper and you fill it and then roll it up like a burrito. I totally tried to make one this afternoon and it is Pinterest fail worthy. Really not any A+ day all the way around

I had to attend a luncheon for the chamber today because one of my superintendents was speaking. At least i got a baked potato out of it. The food was so much better than any other luncheon.

Wait a minute, I kinda live by you both, and I have no idea what a tricky tray is.

Whew, snowy and rough drive home. I'm in the CVS parking lot now eating reese eggs and jolly rancher jelly beans before heading home. The jelly beans are good, but don't compare to my latest addiction, skittles. So I'm kinda pissed I made the wrong candy choice.

What is this Tricky Tray?? It must be this area because i had never heard about it before either. It’s a fundraising raffle where there are gifts, oftentimes donated from different businesses. Ex: a 1 hour massage, kid karate lessons, wine basket, etc. People come to the event, buy raffle tickets then go around and put tickets in the bins of the prizes they want to win. Later the event hosts pull a ticket from each bin and call out the winner’s name for each prize. Apparently there is a lot of strategy to this, i have a friend who was really into it and won a lot of prizes.

My WFH day has been super unproductive. I honestly have been sucked into a black hole of basement planning all day. I've googled everything possible. Barstools, fireplaces, stone, carpet, TVs, sinks and pretty much everything in between. I also made a rough list of cost... which I'm wishing I wouldn't have done!
N requested BWW for dinner tonight so we'll going there. We usually do pizza and a movie, but she said she wants BWW instead. I can't complain!

Great news cheeksmum! Tricky Tray sounds like something where it could get ugly with the school mom crowd. The other night we went to Bingo at Cass' school and some of those moms were ready to get cut throat. I love Bingo. I could see myself being a crazy old lady with pink hair, my own dabbers, and lucky troll dolls down at the Bingo hall.

I’m pretty sure we talked about tricky tray a year ago or so. It’s the same as a silent auction or raffle.

I would never help that co-worker again tgrimes. No way. Great news on your scan, cheeksmum! Sorry about the server, flamingo. That's so frustrating. I love the kitchen, sands42, it looks amazing!

Another day working from home with Chase home, too. I think I'm overcompensating because I haven't been this productive - home or at the office - in ages. Haha. It helps that I actually slept decently last night.
Anyhow DH was bedridden and couldn't stomach anything yesterday, but he's made a pretty good turnaround today. Chase's nose has been running non-stop and he spiked a low grade fever this afternoon, but he's in great spirits. He was a bit bored with us today so I took him to the store just to change things up a bit, then DH signed off work early to spend some time with him. Now that Colin is home, he's on cloud nine.
DH made pizza so I may even have some wine. I think we may actually make it out for his birthday tomorrow night!!

I'm making BBQ pulled pork for dinner with tater tots. I've only gotten a couple of loads of laundry done and have pulled mostly 3 month clothes out to wash and out away for E.

Having the afternoon to myself was nice. As much as I like Aldi, it drives me crazy that I have to go to 2 stores because they don't have everything. Then to get it all unloaded...it was 3 before I finally got to sit down and relax.
Picked Evie up from my MILs, she hadn't napped which isn't anything new. Evie fell asleep on the drive home and is still asleep. It's 6pm. If I wake her, she will be angry. Not sure what to do.

The jelly beans are good, but don't compare to my latest addiction, skittles. So I'm kinda pissed I made the wrong candy choice. Out of curiosity, what is the appeal of skittles, the sour-sweet? I craved stuff like that during both my pregnancies. Airheads are another good one. I don't know what it is about a cherry Airhead but that is one of my favorite junky candies.

I hope you get your night out joelies--you have earned it after all the illness and playing nurse this week (while being sick yourself, to boot!)
