Morning! B had a very restless night and his fever seemed to break last night, only to have returned this morning. So needless to say, he’s home from school. Other than some congestion he seems to be OK and is playing with C and ate a good breakfast, so IDK 🤷🏻♀️
Guess I will use today to catch up on housework.

That looks great mamabear! It's a reminder that we need to pressure wash and restain our deck this summer. Not looking forward to that... I talked to my boss about working from home next Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. She was okay with it, so I'm going to have IT setup remote access from my laptop. I hate to use PTO to sit at my house watching contractors, so hopefully this works out! H can only stay home Friday (of course) and he's going to be out of town the night of no toilets. He told me I should get a hotel room Monday night...I told him the idea of 2 dogs, a 4yr old and myself, in a hotel, sounds like fresh hell. I'd rather be in a toilet less house. |

mwhip agreed! Maybe a quick evening outing before bed so a public restroom can be used? My mom lives 4 minutes away from me, as long as I don't have to wait for a train. So we will likely go to her house right before bed, then again as soon as we wake up. Fortunately, we do not have neighbors behind us, so there are spots in the backyard that I could hide out, if necessary, to use the bathroom. This is absolute worst case scenario. I'm not above using Evie's potty chair if necessary. I'm going to call the install company today and see what the plan is. I'm hoping I have been planning for worst case and they might be able to get one bathroom finished Monday, so I can have my step dad put the toilet back that night. Fingers crossed. |

I just tried a Lilly dress that I bought for C on her, and she is refusing to take it off.
This should not be surprising to me, on many levels. Sorry, DH.

Looks good mamabear! Hopefully B has a good day flamingo, and the fever doesn’t come back. I’d be surprised if they expected you to vacate the house and have 3 non working bathrooms, I’d imagine they’d stagger them. Hopefully the backyard isn’t needed mwhip |

Hiii everyone. I’ve been love titting when I can but my work days have been slammed, so much to do; meetings, projects, a co worker out on short term leave, it’s a lot.
I talked to my SIL last night and she’s really missing the kids, so I think she’s planning to come a few times a year now. I’m still trying to get her to move here and live with us, so I make sure to send videos and pics of the kids on the regular 😉

mwhip during camping trips we often just used a bucket during nighttime when we where kids! I just looked on Amazon, they have fancy ones for camping trips that could also be very useful now 😉.

Morning. I’m in a mood today. Dh and I got into a spat this morning that was just a continuation of one last night. I could easily just let it go but Instead I’m making it worse. Maybe I’ll feel better after a cup of coffee.

GM everyone. Today is picture day at school for C so of course he spilled his full glass of milk on himself at breakfast. (That is very unusual for him, B is usually my spiller).
Other than that I’m at work pulling data for our 401k audit, fun stuff.

We’re at the allergist. It was soooooo nice being able to take our time getting ready this morning. No fighting or yelling. I wish it was like this every day.

Morning! Just visited my friend with the sick baby and she’s doing a lot better. When ds heard the little girl was ill, he wanted to go to a very nice toy store and pick something out for her. He choose the smallest little pink stuffed animal rabbit, so cute. Food in the hospital is on the low side for a nursing mom, so I brought her a while bunch of snacks, magazines and some other goodies. I’m attempting to make my own chicken nuggets tonight, in an attempt to widen ds’s food horizon.

Evie got herself dressed (she actually matched!), brushed her teeth, went potty and attempted to brush her hair all by herself. It was amazing and such a time saver. Cheers to multiple days of easy mornings! |

GUISE! MY HOUSE IS DONE! Of course we have no basement to put it on yet but it's ready! As soon as the basement is done it can be delivered! Then I can start painting and moving stuff in while they finish it out and build our garage!

We once had one bathroom and had it gutted but I told the contractor he must reinstall the old toilet every night if he wanted the job. We had a toilet and a camping lantern in a gutted room each night but it worked. |

Does it have kitchen cabinets and stuff or does that come later? That is very exciting! |

It's beautiful today. T stays home on Wednesday. He wants to take the puppy to a dog park. She's definitely not ready for that since I have to carry her past all neighbors who have dogs. We are going to attempt a walk in the park then maybe visit other grandma at rehab.

mwhip, I really can't imagine they are going to leave you in a toilet-less house. I'm sure they plan to put one back in at night. Or since your mom lives 4 minutes away, can you guys stay there? Would you need to bring the dogs or could you leave them if you take them out right before you leave and right when you get back in the AM? I pee a lot, so sleeping in a house without a toilet is not an option. Just the thought of not being able to go, makes me have to go. In fact, since I've been typing this, I think I have to pee now.
