Hope everything goes smoothly today wedding!!! I’m sorry peachsmama that sounds like a hard, frustrating situation. wineallthetime Did they give you any sort of time frame of when A will be discharged? Or is it too early to even predict that? Indiana did not do daylight saving time until a few years ago and I hate it! Everything was fine without it. 🙄 I remember always saying "wait, Ohio time or Indiana time?'' When making plans with my cousins from Indiana lol.

FFMC - I had no issues with DST and neither did the kids. This bitch... I feel like shit and I think it's because of the change of time. It's not like I stayed up later than usual, but I feel like I was up all night drinking. And Evie did not want to get up this morning either. Tonight will be early bed times all around!

peachsmama Maybe write them some letters. Write one to your SIL and one to your BIL. Just let it all out. Everything you are feeling and thinking about the whole situation. After you get it all out, then either give them the letters, or rip them up and throw them away. The point is to just get it out of your head and heart. It's important to do individual letters though, because I think you should view them as 2 separate situations. That's a good idea. Thank you all for your support.

So I scheduled a facial at my dermatologist for today and called to confirm and it wasn't on their schedule at all, super annoying, but just glad I didn't get there.
They are fixing our bathroom wall bc there was a leak last week, so I had to clear out everything before we left this am. I'm not holding my breath that it will be useable tonight 😬.

Ugh sands42, I can’t believe IN opted-in to DST if they weren’t doing it previously. I saw that FL wants out. I’m hoping more states follow suit, like MD.

Same yummeecookee I think DST is ridiculous. I think the whole country should do away with it and split the difference!! FYI, I decided on a book / craft. Harold and the Purple Crayon, and I found a bunch of stuff on line that I can print out!

I guess I don't understand what is so bad about it being light out in the evening? What a pain if some states are on different time outside of time zones. I know it's for farmers, but I love being able to be outside after 6pm with the kids, since that's basically the only option during the week for me.

I'm cool with extra light to play in, but it's terrible trying to convince my kid that it is indeed bedtime even though it is still light outside. She told everyone we encountered this morning that she had to get up with the moon and the sun was still sleeping. She said she thinks it is some sort of trick they are playing on us. (they being the sun and moon)

I just don’t want to fall back and vice versa. Can’t we just stay the same all year long. Plus the farmer thing is a myth!

Add me to the hating DST club. Chase was not ready for bed last night and neither of the boys were happy campers when it was time to get them up this morning. I slept in an extra 20 minutes too, using sore legs as my excuse. I mean they ARE still sore because Saturday was brutal, but really I just didn't want to get out of bed. Anyhow everyone is freaking out about this storm coming in tonight. Tomorrow's the 25th anniversary of the Blizzard of '93, i.e., the worst 14th birthday EVER, and after all the downed trees and power outages last week, we're just so over the winter. My old manager and I are trying to convince everyone that we need to reschedule tomorrow's meeting in NJ for another day. We have people flying in tonight and early tomorrow morning, plus it's a 2-3 hour drive for us in good weather, depending on traffic. DNW to spend hours of my birthday driving through the tri-state area in a blizzard. DH is going to try to convince his Mom to come stay with us or his sister. She lives a lot further south from where FIL is right now and she's not going to want to NOT visit for a couple of days while we dig out. I remember that crazy blizzard. I think I've mentioned before that you share a birthday with my BFF. I remember we were home from college for Spring Break and insisted on going out (she drove a jeep) and made it like 2 blocks from my house when we turned around and spent her birthday in my parents basement. However, I don't think this storm is going to be so bad. I might be wrong, but I don't think so. I think it depends where you live. This storm will mostly miss us because it’s offshore. But by the time it gets to where wedding is at it could bring them lots of snow.

Hi friends! wedding thinking about you and hoping everything goes smoothly! AZ doesn’t do DST, thank goodness. The big boys are in spring break this week, but Rylands isn’t until next week. Such a pain that they don’t fall at the same time. But we walked to get ry from school and are now having a picnic at the park.

I'm eating cold chipotle since I got ambushed with work as soon as I walked in the door from my dermatologist appointment. She froze a mole on my arm/underarm area and it hurts. Waiting on my vet to get here to look at Misty's belly. Her wound is still not healed. My mom thinks its a tumor that busted to the surface. I'm hoping/praying that isn't it. I don't want to lose my baby but I can not afford cancer treatment for a pony..

Oh peach I hope it’s not that! How’s your foot btw? A little sore. But not bad. I had to put her back in again this morning and wore A's steel toe boots lol. She bumped the lid off the chicken feed and was going to town. She's such a fat pony lol.

OMG.
FIL left his wallet in our car yesterday. I found it and tried to call him but this was after he freaked out, lost his voice?, and cancelled all his cards. BEFORE checking to see if we had it. He does this several times a year.
He also told me he is going to change his cable provider. Why, you ask? Because he got a quote for FOUR dollars less/month.
I told him not to sign/do anything until he talks to Pete but you know how that goes.
He's probably going to enter into another contract he doesn't understand and then Pete will have to clean up the mess. Which also happens several times a year...

My pony will be fine! She has a "fresh wound" which I guess is where the cut just couldn't heal so it bulged out. I have to spray it with this medicine twice a day until it heals and closes. He said it'll take months, especially since I can't bathe her and keep it super clean in this weather. And she keeps aggravating it by escaping! I went to her pen when he got here and she was gone again! You can't keep her in. I swear she should have been born on a prairie somewhere as a wild pony..

DH just texted and we owe a lot less in taxes than we were expecting (he's self employed and paid in more throughout the year). So now he's going to contact the electrician to get things moving on the basement. Yay!
Remember how I was so excited that the drywall and cabinets came in way under budget? Well that lasted until the electrician came in at double what we thought. Haha. Win some, you lose some I guess! I think we're still under... a little.

FWP - I washed my car yesterday and now there's a lovely layer of yellow all over it.
It hadn't been done in awhile and was pretty gross. It took double the work because M was "helping." Basically I had to wash it twice because she decided to use the sponge to clean the tires and then wipe it all over the side I had just washed.
Twice.

I’m out of surgery. Luckily it was just the tear so they said I should feel 80% better in a few days. Thanks for all the good thoughts.

My sister just called me in a panic. First she got a call from her FIL (who has cancer and is going through treatments and not doing well). He was very confused during the conversation. She was just about to call her H to tell him about it when her H called her to tell her he was driving himself to the ER because his BP was through the roof. So she called her SIL instead to go deal with confused FIL and now she’s on her way to meet her H at the hospital. I told her to take a Xanax and calm down because she was no good to anyone if she was a ball of stress too.
