I have total RBF and I keep pretty quiet until I get to know someone, so most people think I'm a bitch, until they get to know me.

I'm currently making a fruit salad for the Father's Day cookout at my brothers today. Yes, it's 6:45 and I'm making fruit salad. I stayed up wayyyy too late last night so naturally J was up at 5:30 ready to party. After trying for an hour to get him back down, I waved the white flag.
DH is going to his dads an hour away today and the boys and I are going to my brothers to see my dad an hour in the opposite direction. It's going to be a long day. I have so much to bring. The weather is going to be shitty--thunderstorms all afternoon. I'm hoping they hold off. My brother has a pool, swing set, water slide/bounce house thing, and a trampoline. B is going to be in heaven.

H is home and I am so thankful. DD was a monster while he was gone but daddy is back and she is sweet and silly again. What gives child? I am the one that provides structure and most discipline so it's not like she knows she can walk all over me when he is away, and daddy gets home and she still tells him he can't change her diapers etc. Whatever I will take my happy child back. Also she and daddy are playing Mario right now so they are both happy and I don't have to deal with 2 kids. Happy Father's day win for me. We are headed for church pretty soon and will have all group at our house tonight. We know how to celebrate here

Morning! We're up and just relaxing. H has already opened his presents from the kids and he seemed to like the Darth Vader books we got him. I told him we can do anything he wants today, so of course we have no plans and he can't think of anything he wants to do. I guess we will just figure it out as we go.

Yawnnn pass the coffee, please
We started having rolling blackouts yesterday afternoon. After so many in a short period of time the power company will shut the grid down for an hour. So we've been without power off and on this whole weekend. It's been weird and slightly annoying because the house is SO quiet with the power off and then scares the crap out of all of us when everything starts back up.
Company all left this morning. It was actually really great having them here. My introverted self would like to go hide in dark quiet closet to recuperate, though.

Took M to The dentist this morning. Our appointment was at 9 AM. I received three text messages this week confirming our appointment, including one this morning at 8 AM. No one was there and the door was locked. Fuckers. This exact thing happened to me about a year and a half ago. I had a Saturday morning appointment, and when I got there, the place was locked down, and no one answered the phone. I put off calling to reschedule for about a week, and then got a BFP, so I just didn't bother since I was supposed to get xrays. After baby boy was born, I finally went back and they asked me where I'd been since I'd gone so long between appointments, but I just blamed it on the pregnancy instead of telling them about their scheduling mix-up.

I hate confrontation but they'll be getting an earful from me tomorrow. You know, on the phone...where they can't see my face.

So this morning, I took my three oldest kids to swim class (kids 1 and 2 are in the same class and kid 3 has a class that starts at the same time), and I took baby boy so my husband could take kid 4 out somewhere. Some woman asked me how old the baby is and then she asked if I have four kids. I told her that I have five and the fifth was with my husband, and she said, "And you're pregnant?" Um, no, just wearing a flowy dress and still have a bit of a paunch, but thanks for that confidence booster lady.

kleigh, I just watched a house hunters episode in your town and now I want to move there! Oooh now I'm curious if it's the one I saw one time. Can you tell if it was older?! I thought they only did one here and TBH it didn't make our town look as appealing (IMO) as I believe it is, so if it is add a few charm points please, I swear it's cute and quaint.

I think it's from a couple years ago, but the wife was a real estate agent and they had a $1M budget. They saw a really cute Victorian, an old historic house that was a total rehab job and then a cute cape cod style. They picked the historic one. They showed the beach a few times and then it must have been shot during the fall because the trees looked gorgeous!

And in searching I found they did a few episodes here. Actually the trees are one of my favorite things about where we live!! We have these beautiful trees that bloom in the spring

But I also have Realtor and Zillow apps on my phone, so I'm all over it!

sweetmelissa Rude. So rude. BUT you should be damn proud of that bod , got you those sweet littles!!! Cheshie6 Yes please share with the class! sophiegrace I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your company! Hopefully you still had all the wine anyway! danib Do you guys face these threatened weather issues all year round? It must break at some point where you can count on him getting in as planned? Re the intro/extrovert, like you danib I have become pretty good at faking it. Painfully shy for years and years but eventually had to bite the bullet and pretend to be outgoing when I moved to another state and didn't know anyone, I faked it long enough that I think I actually got over being shy? Still don't like to be called out or center of attention there. At least not in person!! Edit tag

kleigh because they are out in the middle of the ocean and depend on helicopters, weather is an issue for a big part of the year. It's either potential snowstorms, fog, or high winds. It's just really down to luck. And this year the weather is just not cooperating with his specific schedule. We also had a huge tragedy a few years ago. One of the helicopters went down and 11 people were lost. Since then they have significantly upped their safety standards and basically take zero chances (which I am obviously grateful for). Sending good thoughts for your friend!

Obviously safety first, I was just hopeful there'd be a break in weather but it makes perfect sense that being in the middle of the ocean really makes things unpredictable.
