easternshoregirl- everything RunsforWineandCarbs said. Also, put any soft toys and stuffed animals in a trash bag and seal it. Leave for a couple weeks. DD1 and DS1 got lice once, I just shave DS1’s head. It was the easiest thing for us. He was 1 1/2 and it grew back quick enough.

easternshoregirl I think oil or mayo is supposed to be good with helping to get the eggs out of the hair. They wrap around the strand of hair so you have to slide each one to the end of the strand of hair. If you have it yourself, I would suggest having someone else do your hair. It’s not something you can do yourself. There are even people you can hire or some salons that will help you out.

Dd did awesome at K screening and then we went out for breakfast after. I planned on hanging with her for the day but she begged me to go to DC. 🤷
So I got all caught up with laundry and am now eating a poke bowl before I get the kids from DC.

Thanks guys. I spent all day doing laundry. As much as I didn't feel like it, I took the advice to wash it all again and did at least all our bedding and towels again today after we had done it last night. I think I got the last nit off of E this morning and neither DH or I found any on us tonight. Thank goodness. I'm hoping they are just all gone.

One of my mom friends had a baby today, she has 3 boys already. She was team green. She just posted “baby’s here. Details soon” with a picture of a baby in the basinet. There is no way to tell the sex of the baby and I keep refreshing her fb page because I wanna know if it’s a 4th boy like I think! Lol everyone is freaking out. Haha

One of the A15 ladies on FB- I don’t remember who, posted in the group about Mystery Shopping. I signed up for it and have been doing it for a couple months. It’s pretty neat. I’m getting anywhere between $20 and $100 a week, but I also get reimbursed for some stuff. sizzleb and I even had a play date during one. 😂 DD1 and I are going to a restaurant in Santa Monica for lunch today. I won’t be paid for it, but I’ll be reimbursed up to $60. On the way home I’m also picking up $50 worth take out from an “upscale Italian place”. Today should be a yummy day!

TW- suicide talk
H has been having a hard few days. Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain both had a young daughter. Kate Spade told her daughter it wasn’t her fault. His mom committed suicide when he was 17. She left him a letter saying she’d always love him and dedicated a song to him. He played it for me once, I don’t remember the name, but it was something to do with a mother son relationship and how special that is. He kind of feels like it’s a big “f*ck you”. So hearing that these girls are now without a parent due to suicide, he hurts for them because he knows how bad it feels, but it also being it back for him even though it’s been 20 years.

TW will Also mention suicide. I couldn’t imagine. That must be so hard. A father of one of Isaacs BMB friends lost his battle to mental health when his daughter was 2 months old. It must be so hard to lose a parent that way.

My heart exploded earlier. S1 has a birthday party for one of the kids from school he talks about a lot. I’m pretty sure he has a crush on her. He sat next to her and I asked them to smile for the photo. She looked at me and smiled. Isaac looked at her and made this face. I cut her out did privacy reasons Poof

I'm sorry for your H mrspiatt. That's such a tough thing to deal with, there's no time limit on how long to feel the effects of that. Is he still in therapy? Could he call and see about getting an extra session?

Could he call and see about getting an extra session? He is, but unfortunately he won’t be able to. He only has a week left of work before he take his paternity leave. He has a lot to do to prepare his team and the manager that will be helping out in his absence. Then Saturday DSS comes for 2 weeks and there’s not a chance he’s missing time with him. Then we start out 5 week trip when we drop him off at his grandparents. He’s talking about it though. Not necessarily how it making him feel, but how those kids are going to feel and how they’ll feel as adults (how he feels). So at least there’s that.

It’s Pirate Day at the Ventura Harbor and the Piatt family will be there in costume. DD1 and her bf will be going as the Dread Pirate Roberts and Princess Buttercup, Jack will be Smee, Wormy is going to be a little punk pirate. I’ll likely end up being a wench and wearing some of my Ren Faire stuff. We’re still trying to figure out H- he doesn’t want to wear his Ren Faire stuff, but he has a shirt from Honduras that could pass. He wants to wear my pirate hat, but I’m not sure I’m letting him. It’ll make my freaking outfit. It’s a bitching pirate hat. We had a little too much to drink at the Ren Faire one year and spent way too much money, I don’t regret the hat.

I'm so sorry armpants. Mastitis is awful in so many ways. I hope it clears quickly once the antibiotics kick in.
