We found an old spiral notebook after my grandfathers death that said “advice for my kids” on the front. His hand writing was so bad that we can’t read most of it.
ETA, the “advice to my kids” part was made from word art and taped on the front.

My almost 3 year old has been giving me such a hard time. Only me. I’m so frustrated and feeling like, what am I doing wrong? I think I’m pretty strict so I don’t know what else to do. Waves violently. Me too me too

rubysue I got a kimono in my Stitch fix box that I’m wearing in Palm Springs. I thought of you and our future kimono/caftan commune. Yassss. I’m on the hunt for some new ones. I’m jealous of your trip! Target had a bunch when I went the other day, but I didn’t want to hear MH “why do you need 750 kimonos?!?!”

My 97yo grandparents send me a daily email detailing the weather, how many of their neighbors went to the hospital/died the day before (assisted living), and the special in the cafeteria that day. If it’s the day after BINGO, I get a rundown of my grandma’s cards. My grandmother used to send me weekly letters in the mail when I was in college detailing her days. My favorite one is where she tells me about freezing peaches. Patsie interrupted her, so it took longer than she expected. I will save that forever. Aw, I love that.

I hope snail mail is still a thing when I have grandkids because I really loved getting those letters.

The worst. Why are you dumping it? H said he would take care of making bottles so I believed him. He forgot and can’t remember when the milk was from but most was over a week old. Omg I would be so fucking pissed.

MH left 6oz out overnight the other day and I was pissed enough not to speak to him for an hour or two. I... would not have kind words for him if he wasted 40oz. I'm so sorry.

I have been complaining about my old laptop forever and DH keeps wanting to get me a MacBook... and yesterday his client gave him a really nice one to use while he's working there, but... he doesn't need it. So I've been playing around on it and trying to see what all the fuss is about.
I don't know what to do with myself on it.

I'm getting my new minivan this weekend! I'm really sad that scoutboo isn't here to celebrate my conversion to that minivan life.

Ugh. I asked SO to pick up a pack of pull ups today, because our subscribe and save order isn’t coming until May 2.
This is evidence of my increasing mental load. He bought a huge ducking box of Pampers, because I didn’t tell him that one 20 pack of the Kmart brand would get us through. (He only wears one to sleep and I have about 10 left).
They smell like baby powder and I can’t handle it. (Such a weird hang up, but o cannot stand the smell) I’m probably going to have to donate them to daycare and buy something else. Goodbye way too much money for a piece of plastic to piss in.

loony, you can probably sell them on a mom swap for $5 less than he paid.

loony, you can probably sell them on a mom swap for $5 less than he paid. I’m sure I could. I’ll probably just give them to our DCP though. The money sucks, but she does so much extra for us that it would be a good “paying it forward” for all the moms that use her, since we all provide our own diapers. It’s more the fact that he has no clue what I buy or how I make those decisions. It’s part my fault and part his for not communicating, but he works 6 days a week and I just handle everything else. I’m just feeling the push to start a spreadsheet with all the brands/things before I potentially start a full time position. I also really hate the smell of baby powder. 🤢

I put full sized teens in mine so I'm sure my mom self would fit back there. Did you get a DVD or do I need to pack a kindle for my trip?

loony, I HATE the smell of Pampers, so I get you on that for sure. I've taken to sending MH a picture of the package when asking him to pick up something specific.

This is my FIL/SMIL on vacation too. And daily gas prices. Oh my gosh, this is my parents. I call them every morning, and we always discuss the weather. And gas prices. They are also big fans of telling me the current best grocery deals. We might be sisters. 😬

loony , I HATE the smell of Pampers, so I get you on that for sure. I've taken to sending MH a picture of the package when asking him to pick up something specific. I have a shared google photo album with pictures of all kinds of household items. H & my shopper helper use it so I don't need to write long details. light bulbs, specific cleaning items, tampons etc

I look it up in their app, and take a screen shot. He knows exactly what I want and what aisle it will be in. Sorry you live in an beautiful location and can't Target often loony.
