I can't sleep with ear plugs because MH won't wake up if one of the kids is crying. Which is great....for him.

Ok you guys have me so curious about this blackish ep. I’ve seen the show a few times and I’m wondering how a comedy hit so many nerves.

Happy anniversary yummeecookee! I hope your niece is okay tallb. joelies I think the universe is trying to tell you that baseball sucks. J/k. Sort of. Sometimes prominent hearing loss has its perks. MH is one of the loudest snorers in the northern hemisphere but I rarely hear him. Although he still thrashes around like a fool and pulls the covers away from me.

I had to get a new ID card yesterday and of course it's not working. I can't read any of my private e-mails which is how I get all of my work assignments. I need to go to another building a couple miles away and wait for probably an hour and I'm putting it off. I'm so annoyed. But not surprised.

I have the day off because it’s B’s dental part 2 appointment later on, but I’m spending the morning running errands and am now at Home Depot. I really, really love this place, feels like home; kinda like flamingo and Dillards.

I just talked to the tile install company about the toilet situation...she said to only take up 2 toilets, leave the 3rd in place, until they get one of the bathrooms complete enough to put a toilet back. So there won't be a toilet-less situation now.
I feel so much better about this.

Did anybody watch last night's (two night ago) blackish? It was so sad to me. Yes, it was a hard one to watch. Some of their fights maybe hit a little too close to home too, so probably good MH was watching too😬. It was interesting how they did the lighting so differently to show the mood. I loved that part. Did anybody used to watch this show Awake? They would use a red or green filter to depict different parts of the pprotagonist'a life. So interesting.

I really, really love this place, feels like home; kinda like flamingo and Dillards. We spend a lot of time at Home Depot as well...at least one trip a weekend. It's our 2nd home at this point. But I don't love it...it's kind of boring to me! Especially since H can wander forever in there, and I just want to get my stuff and go!

guster , it was so sad. And I feel so real about how relationships fall apart. It's all the little things over time and not connecting. I find it's rarely one event, but a build up over the years. I missed the first 2 minutes so if there was 1 big incident that set them spiraling, ignore everything I just typed. ETA and I don't watch weekly so I haven't seen the past few episodes either so... I might be talking out of my ass. IIRC, Last weeks was pretty much what you mentioned -- these little every day annoyances that lead to lots of miscommunication and frustration. This slow roll into a pretty dark place. I felt like they were both trying to do something small but meaningful for the other toward the end with the Ramen and the sink, and i was really rooting for them to just see what the other person tried to do. It was so realistic to me Agreed. The ramen was such a small thing but I felt it was very powerful. I hope they get back together, I like the show and I think it generally has good messages.

Morning, I'm home with N who doesn't ha s a fever yet, so hoping she stay fever free so I can go to work tomorrow. My sister just texted that my 3 yo neice fell off the bed and hit her head and puked a few times and is now at the ER. Of course she flew out for work this am and is now flying home. She seems to be acting more normal, but so scary. What is it with my family and brain injuries 😰. Also if anyone needs a fantastic but depressing book, the Bright hour is fantastic, I read it in 3 days. I also would randomly start sobbing while reading it since it's about having cancer and 2 kids. Lol I'm such a Debbie downer right now, sorry. I hope she's ok!!

I really, really love this place, feels like home; kinda like flamingo and Dillards. That's me and Target. Now that I only work 3 days per week, I go to Target a minimum of 2 X per week, often more. Both my kids are right at home there. And now that the Babies R Us stores are all closing, I anticipate even more stops at Target!

Did anybody watch last night's (two night ago) blackish? It was so sad to me. I started it, but didn't finish. M wanted to watch TV in bed with me before falling asleep and I put it on. After about 5 minutes, I didn't think it was appropriate for him to be watching that particular episode. Just from the beginning scenes, sadly, that is MH and I right now.

mwhip, yey for the toilet situation! I was genuinely concerned for you! Also, Same for Home Depot. MH could spend hours in there. We did 2 major renovations (1 when I was pregnant with S and 1 when I was pregnant with B... it sucked!) but anyway, we would go there all the time and he could just go up all the aisles looking for stuff. Now he'll tell me "I'm just running to Home Depot, I'll be back in a few minutes", I know not to expect him for at least an hour. Oh, and the store is less than 10 minutes away (in the same complex as my Target coincidentally)

I feel like everyone can relate to a lot of it. And it made me realize how important it is to keep trying. I, too, liked the lighting to express the mood.

Morning.
Slow day at work. I forgot to defrost the meat for dinner tonight, so I have to figure that out. I may just throw it in the IP and hope it comes out right. Yep, that's what I'm doing because I don't want to have to stop at the grocery store. If I do, I won't make spin class.

I love Home Depot and all of those construction types stores. They remind me of my Dad and all the trips we used to make there when we were little. I love the smell of wood. I'm probably allergic though. LOL

I just got a text that my grandmother is in the hospital. She's not a delightful woman, but I do have sympathy for the amount of loss she's had in her life. I'm sure losing my aunt this last month is contributing to her worsening condition. Aww, very sorry to hear. It just goes against the natural order of things for a parent to lose a child. To lose 2 would be incredibly difficult. Hugs to your family.
