Playdoh and the like often gives me close to two hours of happy children. I sweep and dust-bust probably every 15 minutes, but it’s worth it.

Cadence got a lot of Play-Doh at her 3rd birthday. My niece then proceeded to mix it into one giant ball. I was def. twitching. Then I threw it all out and bought all new.

Dinner is cooking, laundry is going, lo’s homework done. I have a thanksgiving art project I’ve started but I don’t have the patience with LO to keep working on it. Just found out my bil is having surgery tomorrow for kidney stones.

Just checking in, work was insane today. On a positive note, I finally found my groove with this role at some point and my manager's manager called me today to give me kudos and to say keep up the good work. I do not think this matches his feelings about my work just a couple months ago, so I am really feeling relieved. Also he's well respected in the company so it feels extra good.
Anyhow we also had our Thanksgiving lunch at work today, which I organized, so that's kept me busy as well. It went really well and when I got stuck on a late call and had to ask DH to get the boys, I was able to offer up leftovers for dinner. Of course then it took a good hour to drive home, people were driving like they've never seen snow before. But it all worked out.
Not working out is our mouse trap setup - I saw a mouse scamper across my KITCHEN floor before my run this morning. It may be time to call in a professional.
Now we'll see what happens tomorrow. Schools dismissed 2 hours early today and I assume they'll start late tomorrow. I'm only working half a day, so I may or may not drive to the office.
Also add me to team do NOT mix play doh.

Everyone is feeling sorry for him. I’m like “he’s got a hotel room all to himself and I get up a mission times a night with the baby, feel sorry for me!” |

Now I’m hearing of friends who are sleeping in their cars so I’m feeling less sorry for me. Average commute times home today seem to be about 4 hours to go 10 miles. DH left San Francisco at 6:50 and made it to Chicago so that seems pretty impressive now. I’m so glad this isn’t last November when he went there while I was 100 months pregnant.

I’m nuts about play doh and only let C play with it outside. Those little pieces go everywhere and my ocd can’t handle it. Same. When we get it I tend to hide it away and only let them play with it if they ask... and then only outside! Identical same. |

We had a storm like that a few years ago with ice and people crawled home because you couldn't walk. Unfortunately it happens with the slightest shift in temp. we get at least one of these a year and last Friday was this year's. |

Same! Keep the colors separate! I get so angry when I open those stupid containers and they're all the same ugly mix of colors They end up mixed here within minutes of opening new stuff. It drives me insane. And now I have to worry about the playdoh plus being mixed with the regular playdoh. I don’t even know wjst the difference is, but I KNOW they shouldn’t be mixed. Play doh plus is softer and goes through extruders more easily. I used to be ocd about play doh mixing but now I just shrug and walk away. |

Like gone from your favorites or gone from the top of the n13 page? Maybe try completely closing out of tapa and restarting your phone. |

My last day of training the new girl was tonight, hallelujah I can have my quiet time back. Work went fine except I’m pretty sure I had a fever the whole time I was there. I took my temp a little bit ago and it was 101.1. I don’t have time to be sick right now. I have a party to throw on Saturday.
A little sappy walk down memory lane: 5 years ago today (11/15) was my due date. In a few hours, at approx 2am is when my water broke. The following 25 hours was some of the longest in my life. Crazy to think that at this time 5 years ago I was bouncing on my ball singing “come baby come, baby, baby come come”. Ha.

kim22 thank you for thinking of me. Luckily, I had taken the day off to get the kids their flu shots and go car shopping, so I was home. Which worked out b/c S BFF's parents were stuck so we wound up taking their kids home too so they didn't have to sit at DC waiting. What a crazy storm. It took my friend 7 hours to get home. She works 20 miles from her house, a usual 40 minute commute. She left at 2:30 and got home after 9:30. Has your husband secured a flight yet?
