I think I need to find a way to do some advocacy with animals. There have been some signs in the universe over the past month calling to me and then yesterday a man here in RI who let animals live in squalor and starve to death was sentenced to pay a $300 fine and that’s it. I just can’t even believe it and I’ve sat back too long. Here is the original story with some not too graphic pics rispca.com/services/animal-cruelty-investigations/rispca-statement-on-exeter-animal-cruelty-case/Any thoughts on what I can do cagoldi? Obviously I have time and financial constraints but there’s got to be more than just talking about it. |

Ok, after that ramble. C got up at 5:45. I’m waiting for grocery delivery now and then we will go to Cs school carnival then head to the Cape for the rest of the weekend. I’m apprehensive about it because C can be a handful there with his cousins and I’m tired. Dh is sleeping in so hopefully he wakes rested and ready to parent.

Morning! My weekend is going to consist of cleaning house. My BIL is still here for another week and we have 2 more (a couple ) people coming on Monday. So they will be in S’s room, and S will be sleeping in our room on a cot (can’t bedshare with her, no one will sleep!). And they will be here for 5 days so I need to try and get everything I need for S out of the room.

Morning! I bailed on my long run because after a few miles, I was clearly not up to it. If I don't feel better by tomorrow, I'll have to take a couple hours either Monday or Tuesday morning to get it done. I think any later than that will screw up my taper.
Ahh, I remember before kids when I had more flexibility and a functioning immune system... LOL.
Today we have a party at the park for Col's tee ball league and that may be it. We're going out for dinner with DH's parents at some point this weekend, but it's pretty up in the air.

Morning! I'm sitting downstairs with my knitted blanket and hot coffee listening to Theo sing "Let it Go" through the monitor. It's the cutest.
I couldn't decide on sweet or savory for breakfast so I made a tomato, basil and goat cheese quiche and cinnamon rolls. Problem solved!

@ifig That is alot of people! I push myself to have somewhat of an "open home" policy, but at the same time I am naturally introverted in many ways, so too many people at a time stresses me out. Do you and your H enjoy hosting?

Do you and your H enjoy hosting? MH enjoys it more than I do I think. I like visiting with people. But I don’t like the rest that goes into hosting. Lol. Like cooking and cleaning and tending to everyone. But the couple that is coming Monday I really enjoy and am looking forward to seeing them. They live in GA. Did I also mention that we are having a crawfish boil on Wednesday? So we have about 30 people coming over. 🤪. Luckily MH does all the work for that, except the cleaning. We do this every year around this time. So of course cleaning lady came last week. I told him next time we need to schedule it the day after cleaning lady comes so the house is still clean. Lol. |

Gymnastics and swim class today. I told Cadence I would take her to toysrus after swim to see if they had any good dollhouses left.
Then mh and I are going to the movies tonight while C goes to FIL's house.
Still can't move my arm without insane pain. My body hates me.

I'm a little sad we're missing a birthday party today. It is a nacho bar party with a bounce house. I think that I'd a great idea and I totally want to steal it!

GM. I’m at ballet..... only 3 more practices til the season is over. I can’t believe it. (Good thing I have B signed up for some summer sessions!).
After that we have a “touch a truck” event which is for C to enjoy. Then a bday party for our friends’ 1yo.

Guys...my brain isn’t functioning on all cylinders today. This morning when I went to brush my teeth, I picked up my can of deodorant (which was sitting next to the tube of toothpaste) and sprayed it on my toothbrush. Don’t worry, I realized my error before I put it in my mouth. Threw away the toothbrush and got a new one out and brushed with the proper items. THEN, I made S some toast and put the butter in the pantry instead of the fridge. I think I’m loosing it.

Had tons of plans to do fun stuff with the kids, but am currently sitting in my poor excuse for a garden while the kids are playing. I really can’t be motivated to go and do something. Dinner last night was so fun, we talked kids four hours straight (professional and private) and had a glass of chilled red wine. Which I know sounds like a cardinal sin, but it was amazing!

Morning.
M2 was up earlier than expected. I’m still in bed and he’s been roaming my room playing. I’ll get up to get breakfast going in a bit.
We have tee ball later and then going to what I think is a play date. A mom of a boy in M’s after school class has been saying she wants to get the boys together. She has invited us along with a few other families to her house. I really didn’t want to go, but this is the second time she is inviting us, and I kind of feel like I need to suck it up and go. I think I’m nervous because I don’t know anyone of these people and honestly don’t know if I’ll mesh well with anyone. I won’t know if I don’t go, so I told her we could stop by for an hour or so. I just hope it goes well.
Hope you all have a good weekend!

Morning all, happy Saturday!
Full day ahead of us; last gymnastics class for B, grocery shopping, Costco run, then play outside with the neighbours. TRU is also having a ‘party’ in their parking lot to showcase all of the summer toys so I’d like to take the kids and release them to see what they gravitate to, I’m thinking of getting a play house of some sort.
I shoveled the last bit of snow off the deck onto the grass last night and it’s supposed to rain so it should be gone this weekend. One week to let the grass dry then I’ll have the spring clean up company come in.
