I live on a pretty quiet street and wouldn't let Evie play out front by herself. Our privacy fenced, locked back yard, yes, but not out front.

I still haven't made it to buy my H's Valentine's cards from me and Evie. Guess I'll be one of 'those' people at the grocery store after that gym tonight!

One of my coworkers came to work today with the goddamn flu. He left at noon and I kept my distance but god damn! Also two others with chest colds. I need a cough like I need a tear in the asshole! Oh wait...

As you can gather, things are going great in that department. TMI:
It looked like a crime scene in my bathroom last night. Recheck tomorrow and it can't come soon enough. I've already blocked my schedule for surgery since it is inevitable at this point I think.

No judgement dapostrophe. Last year, I had to buy another box of Valentine’s because I had no self control, but I was aware a week before. The Valentine’s candy I bought had 28 pieces and I only needed 15, so I opened it and maybe ate like 6 pieces in the last three weeks. MH saw the open box and just took it upon himself to eat the candy without even asking me about it. 🤦🏽♀️

That why the red light district has red lights 😉. And I love a firman red front door, ours is navy, with brick and white trimmings. Apparently this is scandalous, because dark green is the traditional colour... I like a navy door, too, esp. with brick. The color I'm really liking right now is Benjamin Moore Gentleman's Grey. It's the perfect dark blue-gray (with the tiniest hint of green). Gorgeous. I love it here

Oh hell no, nam2013. My mouth literally opened up while reading that. I get nervous about running into the house to pee with Colin out on the deck in the backyard, and we live on a quiet, secluded road with a very private backyard. So maybe I'm a bit over the top, but still... No. I'm so sorry tgrimes, I hope you avoid the whole influenza family affair. Sorry things haven't improved, wedding. That sounds so incredibly painful.

nam2013 No, not over-reacting. I would not be happy. How did it come to light/will your H say something to his parents? Re: Valentine's day, we exchange cards and I get little treats for the kids. We made the infamous cookies last week and I might do heart-shaped pancakes tomorrow morning for breakfast. DH sent tulips that came today and we'll make a nice dinner tomorrow night once the kids are in bed. I do love Valentine's Day, nice to have a 'happy' day randomly in the dead of winter. I had asked B's teacher if they were doing a party or anything besides the card-exchange, and she didn't have anything planned, so I offered to bring in those big frosted cookies. I appreciate that she doesn't want to burden parents but I wanted them to do *something*!

I'm sorry you're having such a hard time and I hope you get some relief/answers soon! I have a tear in my butt. For real. Not due to kinky stuff either. Just due to some GI issues in Disney. I've tried medicine to no avail and the Dr thinks surgery is needed. I have a recheck tomorrow and surgery tentatively scheduled 3/16. It's a huge pain in the ass😂 I've got butt jokes for life.

I picked up the crabbiest kid in the world from preschool today. I finally got her calmed down enough to take a nap. I will pay for this at bedtime but there is no way I could survive until bedtime with that attitude. nam2013 big nope to playing solo on a busy street.

Okay WWN13 do? My in-laws live on the corner of a busy street. Shop/front door, pavement, bike lane (on which motor scooters can also drive), parking lane, big two way road with heavy traffic, buses, trucks, cars etc. Today I found out that they let ds play outside without supervision, I am really not okay with this. He a very sensible boy, but he’s also a 4yo who would run after a balloon. Am I overreacting here? Big hell no to that!!!!

C made MH a card. It says, "You are one of the bestest dads. I was very good today so I can have a Valentine's day. Please".

We live on a quiet street and I don't let C play unsupervised. I may run in to grab something, but that's it. He's mischievous and would find it funny to hide from me or would go off on some adventure. I also don't know how he'd react if a stranger came and talked to him. Like would he immediately yell for me that a stranger was approaching or would he jump in their car with the promise of candy?

My kid is trolling me. Dc sent a picture of her inside a bucket with the little girl who's mom had the face mask on. I asked Cadence at pickup if E's mom was sick. "Oh, yes, she has to wear a mask to work and school and can't take it off." "Is E sick too?" "No, I touched all over her face. She's not sick." I guess she was doing a fever check on her. Wonderful.
...it is a cute picture though.

It's cleaning lady day and she's also our handyman. She was going to put together our new tv stand so I was super excited to come home. She couldn't do it by herself. Bummer. Looks like Dh and I need to man up and tackle it this weekend.
Dh is currently bathing C while I rest waiting for meds to kick in. Another exciting night.

I got myself some new lingerie for mh's valentine's gift. I asked for chocolate covered espresso beans from a local shop. I didn't get E anything. I kind of hate the wastefulness of what I would have gotten and he won't notice he didn't get anything. I would be tempted to get a heart shaped pizza but I'm cutting out cheese.

wedding I'm sorry things aren't getting better. tgrimes is this where you just let the kids cough in your mouth so you can get the flu and get over with the waiting? But seriously, I hope the fevers are manageable, the kids sleep, and the wine stays stocked.
