I need athletic shoe help. I’m totally good on the fashion sneaker— I’ve got plenty of those, but I need a Nike or Adidas workout shoe that I would wear for things like going to soccer with Josie or walking the track with Charlie. Essentially, I need a work out looking sneaker that I will not be using to work out. flamingo, didn’t you buy very popular pair of Nikes? Can you share which one? In my experience, all Nike's are pretty comfortable so I'd go based on what look you like most! Especially if you aren't going to be running/working out in them. |

That’s what I have for working out, but I don’t wear them out of the house. I have an old pair of new balance I wear for yard work, but I was hoping for a more fashionable pair of running shoes. |

chrisy01 This is really upsetting about your job. I feel like your department is holding you hostage because you hold shit down. You are kinda like their Cinderella. Something has to change though.

That’s sucks chrisy01. I’m sorry. We are at ninja and there’s only one teacher vs the usual two and he sucks at keeping the kids organized so it’s a shit show. |

chrisy01 Oh hell no. I’d be having some choice words with said boss, not in writing obvi. Let me think of the perfect response while I vacuum. Trust, it’ll be good. A lot of my deep thoughts come while I clean this place while focusing on getting the lines in perfect unison.

Ha ha. Im picturing vino vacuuming like a mad woman, looking like shes having an argument with herself. Sorry things aren't working like you planned chrisy01. I have another chiro appt at noon. Whatever he did yesterday, really helped, I don't notice any pain anymore. He told me to come back today and tomorrow, but at $43 for just the adjustment, I don't think I'll go again tomorrow. I need to do laundry and some cleaning today. And if it dries out enough, mow our yard and the neighbors. |

I got the Nike Run Swift and have liked it. It is comfortable and lightweight, and fairly streamlined, which is important to me since I wear a larger size. I don't like to spend a ton on athletic shoes--since let's face it, I don't wear them all that much, lol--so I liked the price-point, too. |

It’s fine guys. Sort of. It’s forcing me to make a decision I should have done years ago. I love the fact you all have my back. Once I know what I’m going to do I’ll let you all know. There are a few options but I have to discuss with C to really make the best decision.

I don’t have anything in the cart but 6 flannels, a pair of Mocs, and a pair of corduroy mustard colored sneakers (debating on the hunter green ones, also) I have one flannel and I look terrible in it. So boxy and unflattering. Now that the tie up shirt thing is back in, do you think I could wear it like that? Mine is red and blue so I'm thinking i'll pair with some navy moto leggings, a white tank, and grey ankle booties. |

I think that sounds cute, cagoldi. I have to be careful about the fit of some of their button ups because my boobs are so big I usually size up and then it just tents on me. |

Legoland was great. X had a blast and Dude cooperated really well. No fits when we told him we were done buying treats, souvenirs, and it was time to go.

That's why I hardly own any button downs, but I'm hoping if I leave it open and tie the bottom I can breathe new life into it. Even though I'm still a little overweight, I look better in more form fitting clothes because at least you can tell I have a waste. Flowy shirts make me look like a giant sea creature. |

Good morning! We just have plans to meet a friend at the park. And my friend who is in town is coming back over today. Gotta get out of the house! MH wants me to put up the security camera in the garage today 😏 He was like, I want you to figure it out on your own because I know you can - I’m not going to tell you how to do it! ......and then he preceded to tell me exactly how to do it 🤷🏼♀️😂 He also painted our whole bedroom ASIDE from around any of the trim. Please tell me if you have any tips on painting that besides just tape.... which is what I’m gonna do.  I have a brush I'm obsessed with for trim, www.homedepot.com/p/Wooster-2-in-Polyester-Angle-Sash-Brush-0Q32110020/100357411. So comfortable to hold and it gives a very clean edge. I like these a lot, too: www.homedepot.com/p/HANDy-Paint-Pail-HANDy-16-oz-Red-Plastic-Paint-Cup-with-Magnet-1500-CT/202245288Let the paint dry a bit, but not too long, before taking the tape off. Have learned this the hard way. |

Morning!
Well, the chalk paint project is complete. The chest looks great, hardware is much improved in gold, and I love the color...just not with the stuff in the adjoining room. :Sad trombone: So I'm probably going to end up repainting it, but it was good practice and I loved the product itself--pretty idiot-proof. Also, the wax was a lot easier than I thought.
DH is about to take B to the grocery store and I am going to put C down. She woke up at 5:15 with a leaky diaper and never went back to sleep, so she's been super delightful this morning.

I have $30 in Old Navy cash if anyone wants... although the coupon code HURRY is a better deal than the ON cash 🤷🏼♀️ You can’t combine them I guess.

Still so cold. I making a big pot of veggie chili and hoping the kids will sit down soon to watch Jumanji.
We watched Wreck it Ralph yesterday (so cute), but Josie is still so weird about the idea of a movie that she screamed, yelled, cried and hid through at least half of it.

Any one else itching to put out their fall decorations? I might start with non-pumpkin, non-Halloween stuff. I usually do it all October 1st but I’m ready already!!! Sept 1 I started. I am all in on fall this year. |

Kolaches, oil change, and quick grocery run done. It's basically raining non stop, but I needed to get Cadence out of the house, if only for an hour or two, so we don't go stir crazy.

guster I dragged DH to see Wreck It Ralph in theaters (pre-kid IIRC), I thought it was cute, too. LMK if yours enjoy Jumanji, I’ve been thinking of showing that one to B.

My back is curved, so my booty stick out (my mom calls me Daisy duck/Betty boop...) anything wide makes me look pregnant... |

Hey! We had a lot of fun at germanfest yesterday. The girls had a blast dancing to the polka music. Today so far I’ve slept in and hung out on the couch, so not productive at all. In a few minutes I’m going to go out and divide my daylilies so I can bring some to my friend’s new house this afternoon. I ordered some things from ON last Monday and they are supposed to be here tomorrow so I’m hoping everything fits/looks good. guster I bought these in July and I like them. Very comfy. www.amazon.com/dp/B01HNIQ3J8?ref=yo_pop_ma_swfchrisy01 that’s bs. I’m sorry you’re dealing with that crap. |

Finished meal planning and grocery shopping. Waiting in the drive thru for our lunch. I should do a target run but LO is not really listening so I don’t think I can do another shopping trip alone with both kids.
