tgrimes what fan are you looking at? Well, I was looking at fans but decided on a regular light fixture instead. THis is the one that's $290. This is the first one I was considering:

This morning at the OT, therapist said, "you're a compassionate, very experienced parent and you're doing everything right so far." LOL. Compassionate, sure, but I don't know about the rest of that stuff, dude. I have no idea what I'm doing. Fake it 'til you make it, I guess. I agree with him/her. You're a Supermom.

My parents arrived early and I broke a glass a few minutes after they arrived. Apparently I'm too pregnant to clean the mess up.

Those are nice tgrimes, of course I'll use this opportunity to plug Home Depot. They usually have a great selection.

Just got back from my son's 504 meeting at the high school. PDQ: My XH made a big stink about being involved, but we have to do separate meetings, so they scheduled him before me via phone. It's such a formality bc he is not involved with my son's mental health care and cannot make any decisions. After all that, when they called him, he told them he was getting on a plane and to just send him the report 🙄 I told them I was sorry about all the hoops, but it's probably a good thing he cancelled because we knew we were going to let him have his meeting, and then have the real meeting afterward. Luckily, this team gets it (and I just click with them)...it's such a relief after the cluster that was middle school. Whew!

Have a fun night trtlcrzy!!! Omgggg tgrimes she looks adorable in her flower girl dress! 😍 And I love her faces lol lfig is she a picky eater?? I’m unfamiliar with that diet. But if she’s picky maybe you could make homemade shakes that hide the stuff she doesn’t like? My kids are so freaking picky so that’s what I try to do sometimes. Letty won’t eat any fruit. NONE. So frustrating. GL with potty training yummeecookee! I hope he catches on quickly! I’m not looking forward to doing that again. I think the 3 day thing (or two) works great! That’s pretty much what we did and they caught on super quick. I will continue to take my lazy route and wait until she is about to turn three though. Lol 🤷🏼♀️ Has your mom had a heart attack before @peachesmama? She’s a nurse right? Love your pics nam2013! Hope you guys are having so much fun! No. She's had "heart attack like events " yes she is a nurse. And the worst patient ever.

I agree with him/her. You're a Supermom. Well I can die happy now because you're my mom idol. **blushes** After that compliment now I can die happy! I honestly think most of us have no idea what we are doing, but we show up anyway. Even when things are really tough, and we are worried or depressed or exhausted or just overwhelmed with life/husbands/work/relationships, etc. You have been through the wringer lately and you are still showing up in big ways. Good for that therapist for calling it like it is ❤️

So, here was my color question. H sprayed the wood paneling in the basement (it was real wood but an ugly orangey, grainy wood). I went with BM Palace White to give it some warmth, but it ended up really presenting as more an off white, creamy color. We are doing dark brown vinyl plank floors. My question is that I went with white to brighten it up, but also so I would not have to paint baseboards and trim. I thought it would be a nice "textured" look and it is, but now that it's cream more than white I don't know what to do about the doors. We are replacing them, but what color should they be? If we made them true white, does that mean I need to paint all the trim and baseboards to match? Should they be a color? Would painting them the same color as the walls would look weird. #WWN13D? There are 3 doors.

I had a horrible morning, a rough day and then I get home and A tells me his grandpa won't be breaking ground for TWO MORE FUCKING WEEKS! I am in a miserable mood and just unpleasant. I feel sorry for my family tonight.

We are at the wedding reception and they didn’t invite any of our mutual friends so that kinda sucks. DH just got me 10 drink tickets though so 🤷🏻♀️. We’re telling our other friends to come crash after dinner.

White Dove. Which would be lighter than what we have on the walls in the basement. I'd have to test it to see how much whiter.
