lfig glad you have a solution on the calendar now. How quick is the recovery for that? I won’t be able to lift more than 20 lbs for 2 weeks, and liquid diet for a week, then soft foods for a week. But he said I could go back to work the next Monday if I felt up to it since I will be mostly sitting at a desk.

lfig I'm glad you have a light at the end of the tunnel, but agree the surgery does not sound "fun". All the Starbucks milkshakes for you!

Yes, they say the success rate at 10 years out is 80%. Sounds pretty decent! Looking forward to this being over for you. This! Hope everything goes smoothly lfig!

I am waiting for Mongolian chicken in the instant pot. I'm still skeptical of this thing.

FWP. I think we are doing a Frizen themed birthday party for L cause she's really into it. I want to get her a dress to wear. I like Elsa's dress better, but I want L to like Anna better since she's so strong and spunky.

That he didn't want to go or hated the house or something? He was saying it was a bad week for him. Then mh’s mom suggested other weeks and he said those weren’t good either. She thinks he just doesn’t want to all stay in one house together. It’s not my cup of tea either but sheesh, I was going to suck it up for old Nonna and make the best of it.

Funny you were mentioning the different cultural styles of confrontation yesterday. Mh’s mom’s side is Italian immigrants (he is first generation) and they live up to that stereotype of very emotional, passionate outbursts. They fight hard but also forget about it and are full of love again.

So I was a little annoyed that C went to work today because I thought he was still sick. Turns out he is and they sent him home. He's angry because he can't do his guys night now. He only went to work so he could have guys night. Not cool.

Love my instant pot! Made meatloaf and mashed potatoes in mine tonight! I don't know how I lived without it!
I'm heartbroken. The girl is used to work with, that left right before Christmas, I talked to her on the way home tonight, bitched for 20 minutes about work, she said she wanted to get together and I said yes, get our husbands together too...she quietly told me they had separated. I almost cried for her. I wish we lived closer so I could go see her.

And why does dinner have to be like a hostage situation? We are constantly in negotiations to get E to eat one more bite of something. She's currently in bed since she wouldn't eat dinner, I can hear her talking. Tomorrow is going to be a long damn day.

Omg, a house full of rowdy Italians. Maybe you dodged a bullet!

We were letting Colin watch a few of the men's slalom skiers right before bed and one of his favorites missed a gate. The guy never makes mistakes and is already taking 2 gold medals home, but no matter. Colin burst into tears and it took a few minutes for him to calm down.
The Olympics can't end soon enough, apparently.

Then every night before bed he's starving and I have to bring him a banana or something. It's exhausting. I only hope X is better but it's not looking good. Poppy is going to be different, right?!

We literally sent Evie straight to bed if she wasn't going to eat. She probably laid in bed for 30 minutes before falling asleep, but she did not get out of bed. I'm sure she will wake up starving.

I made Apple 🍎 cinnamon infused water for everyone at work today and then I told two co-workers (nicely) that their idea was stupid and my idea was better. They both went with my idea which worked out perfectly as I expected.
More Apple cinnamon infused water for everyone!

He has decided he wants to try snowboarding next year though, so that's exciting...guess he's getting lessons since we have no idea how to do it!

Kid has me figured out. He always asks me, not dad, because he knows the answer will be "well, you should have eaten more dinner. Good night!"
