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! I bought a lightweight poncho with fringe today. It’s fabulous.

They don't deliver or I would 100% do that because I also have a bit of a sore throat. I live in a weird hole that has very little delivery. Tom Yum soup? ETA sorry about your sore throat. I have one too. We should probably just find some dicks to suck. I'm currently staring down tom yum on ubereats (I know, I know, they're terrible. Also the only delivery service in my area) My dick to suck is at home tonight (as in, not my home) and I still don't think it would help my throat, sorreh to whatever weird poster advice that was.

I'm watching Property Brothers and they're doing extra clothes storage for the girl's room and a built in desk for the boy's 🤨.

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. Target makes it easy. 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. When Kmart said they were closing thousands of stores, I was kind of hopeful ours would be on the chopping block and a Target would move in, but nope. We are supposed to be getting the lower end Whole Foods 365 next year. I probably won’t shop there regularly, but it will be nice to have a place to get bougie things when necessary that’s not an hour and a mountain range away. Amazon is great, but not as immediate as a 20 pull up need, today. If I do get this job, I will be doing something very visual for him. He has no idea what it takes to run a household and would just pay top dollar for whatever, even though we really do have a general (not line item) budget.

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 hardcore love macs. MH just replaced his laptop and I convinced him to go Mac and now he loves it too

MH just replaced his laptop and I convinced him to go Mac and now he loves it too I think I would find more to love about it if I wasn't so paranoid about it not being ours. I don't know what security protocol they have on it or anything and I don't want to ruin anything, so I spent 30 mins or so using it as a glorified HIH browser. DH was firmly anti-apple until he got one from a client a few years ago. When he rolled off that one, he convinced his company to replace is windows based laptop. He now has 3 MacBooks for work (one from his company, 2 from clients he's working for). It's ridiculous.

loony I also like that H can search the google album by keyword so he doesn't have to waste time scrolling through pics.

I can’t afford an air right now, so I’m looking into something ultralight under $500 so I can do meeting notes and google docs at work. We have chrome books I can use, but I want something that’s mine. I’ve even been looking into refurbished iPads with a keyboard, but that’s still $350 for a tablet.

DD just spent the last half hour sobbing that she misses my mom (died when she was 6mo old) and that she doesn’t want to die. Like, hysterically sobbing. So. That was fun. I have no idea where it came from.

I have two bachelorette parties two weekends in a row in August. I suggested DH invite his mom out to help out for one of them (he works weekends so it would be tough for him to get them both off). Win-win. Break from the babies AND a MIL visit that I don’t have to organize or entertain her for.

🚨 we have a fly situation in DS’s playroom, which is a finished attic room 🚨
We cannot figure out where they are coming from and just did some deep attic exploration. We now have apple cider vinegar traps set and I lost one hour of my night to this horrible situation.

Today is one of those days I needed my own wing of the house to retire to. With the dog of course. I’ve got a book to read and quiet to enjoy.

So we checked the attic spaces that have doors into the playroom and the only other option is coming in through the windows, but that’s weird, right? Like why would they come in?

@juliagulia Might be attic flies, also called cluster flies. They live outside & come in when it gets cold. They can make their home in walls, drop ceilings, window casings, electric outlets etc. I think it's treated with a dust & spray, but idk how that's work in a playroom. Look for dead flies to determine where they are hiding. Try a fly light to kill them or one of those ultrasonic devices. If that's what it is, you can google methods.
FYI I have all the useless pest knowledge since we invest in property. A lot of the commercial buildings we've bought in town also had apartments above so that adds to pest issues. We've had to learn a lot.

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. 🤢 post it's work for MH and phone notes. Truth be told MH doesn't even go to the store but maybe twice a year.
