So looks like Mr. Flamingo is our neighborhood's newest Little League t-ball assistant coach. We got a text from the coordinator that after the rosters were finalized last night, our team's coach backed out, and was there any way we could help (I'm sure everyone got the same msg). I replied that I would check with my H tonight and let her know. I guess in the meantime another parent stepped up to the plate (ha!) so while I was at my friend's birthday dinner, a mom called and introduced herself as the new coach and said she understood one of us was going to be her assistant. LOL, guess that is what's known as the "assumptive close"! This is how MH ended up as a baseball, basketball, and soccer coach. He's also been back up on the bench at hockey but he can't skate so he doesn't have to worry about heading that up. I think he's safe with gymnastics but I may not be. I inquired to the gym owner that if I don't return to teaching, I would be interested in some daytime hours for the pre-k classes and he asked if I wanted to run that program.

Good help is apparently hard to find!

I feel very chatty right now. I uber'ed tonight so I could have one of those fishbowl margaritas; my friend's husband was nice enough to treat us all to our meals/drinks, so I'm glad I took a gift (nice bottle of prosecco, per y'alls advice--it was well-received!) Did I tell y'all this morning that I have somehow sprained my ankle? Only problem is, I have no idea how. I woke up this morning and it was sore and swollen quite a bit. I don't remember tripping/stumbling/twisting it, or hitting it against anything, or anything else that could cause it. So weird. Of course I was on my feet all day, b/n errands and taking the kids to the park, etc. Hoping it will improve a bit overnight. tgrimes did y'all make it to the beach today?

Paging tech support trtlcrzy - how do I change my view so my N13 favorite shows up? I finally got tapatalk working again. But I deleted and downloaded again so all my settings have to be redone.

Glad to hear the good news, wedding!! So flipping cute, kim22!! I will be sending positive thoughts for your get together, peachsmama. I hope they are being reasonable and realize their childish behavior could have long term effects.

I went home for a bit today and it was much better than the other day! C was a cranky tired mess, but L was so sweet and happy, she even wanted me to put her to bed. I got to spend a little time with MH too once he got home. I had a delicious glass of wine and now am back at the hospital.

On the screen with the board name listed click the thing in the upper right corner and switch to list view (this is from memory so I might have directions switched)

We made it, but the water was cold. The kids didn’t mind but my sister & I only made it ankle deep. *poof Also take my advice and stick your foot calf deep into a bucket of ice filled with water for 10 min. Then take it out for 10. Repeat twice.

I just read this to my H and he literally laughed aloud and was like, "Do that when I'm at work." My feet are basically blocks of ice on a good day. (Also, M is too cute--love her in that bright blue!)

5 minutes after I posted, my brother called. He wants the 4 of us to meet and talk on Wednesday. I'm assuming my dad called him and told him I wasn't sure we would go. So I guess that's happening. Idk how it will go honestly. I'm glad he reached out, at least it shows they are willing to talk. I think you can go into it knowing you may never see eye to eye on the whole dog/insurance debacle, but maybe you can find a way to come to some agreements about how to move forward. You've got this!

H does this thing sometimes that really pisses me off. She will cry in her room for us and if no one comes in the time she wants she will stand on the floor and pee. Her bathroom is literally next door to her room, probably 20 steps from her bed to the toilet. Makes me so mad.

trtlcrzy, that sucks. C went through a stage about 1.5-2 years ago that if he was pissed about being in his room for bedtime he'd pee or poop on the floor. It was fun..
