Sippin’ on gin ‘n juice

I’m watching the Veep episode where they keep arguing over how to say Nevada. Seems relevant.

Lice. We just spent the evening dealing with lice on our older two. Shoot me now. Luckily me, H, and the baby didn't have any active lice but we still did the treatement. And then, the baby decided to roll off the bed when we were examining their heads. She hit her head and got a nice bruise/bump. So we have to wake her up every two hours tonight. Today sucksssss

My gosh. I’m sorry.

It’s pretty spot on. It picked up my Northern California early years, and my Southern California rest of the years.

I remember that drive thru liquor store question. Like what?!

We just call it a drive-thru and that wasn't a choice. But it's more than liquor. Pop & other drinks, milk, chips, chip dip, lottery, cigs, candy etc.

Yes, I will pay an extra dollar for milk if I don't have to put pants on.

icedcoffee, oh that's awful. I have no idea about lice treatment & how long it takes, but I hope it goes away soon.

It pinned me 22 miles from where I lived from 2-23. So it works. 😂

It's 1am. H came out for a drink & scolded me for not being in bed. I started looking at ideas for a fortnite birthday party and am probably going to be up all night filling my notebook. I can't help it when I spiral on party planning & I'm not 2 years old. Back off, buddy!

I’m sorry, goldenbird , that’s a pain in the butt. My BMB had a few people with GD. aprilz81 had a lot of resources and info if I remember correctly.

GD is a pain, but fairly easily managed.  The key is to do the best that you can and not feel like a failure if you need medication or constant changes in dosage or type.  You didn't do anything to cause this, it is caused by the placenta producing hormones that affects how your body processes the glucose and it will almost always go away as soon as the baby is born.

I've had it twice and if you need to work with a nutritionist there is no shame in that.  My dad is a diabetic and my mom is a nurse (and his caregiver) so I didn't go that route.  It will take you a little bit to figure out what you can safely eat and keep your numbers in check but you will learn.  I couldn't have bread, pasta or cereal, but an occasional cookie was okay.  Some people are the opposite.

Right now they have 2 if the kids ones for $200 and when I calculated 2 regular kindles plus cases and 2 years of freetime, it was cheaper to do the kids ones. I think. I need to recheck that.

Are you a prime member? It’s $83 for a year of freetime unlimited for up to four kids. So we don’t pay extra per kindle. Unless I’m reading that wrong? It’s just an app that you can download onto any kindle. So if you bought one kids kindle with the included free time, you could just add in a regular kindle for less I would think?

Oh! I didn’t realize that! Yeah I’m a prime member. I’m gonna wait to see what prime day brings before making the final decision. lol
