grumpycat , we recently started having wine on tap from our kegerator in the house and it is... dangerous. How much have I had? Who knows? Who cares? Wait, that's a thing?! We need this for our kegerator! Yes! It was a whole process. We have a dual tap kegerator, so it can hold one full keg or two mini kegs. We made wine (sauv blanc) from a kit from morewinemaking.com, it was a 4 week process for that type of wine. We also had to buy all the initial tubing and supplies. But, we finally finished it right before thanksgiving. We bottled some and then H put the rest into the mini keg! The wine turned out great, I was shocked. 🤣 I will take a pic of our setup tonight! We are going to start a new batch soon, hoping to do a Riesling.

Last week of pumping! ETA: after catching up cakewench this post is really timely! I’ve been down to two pumps a work day for awhile, and this week I’m just going to do once. I just got only 2.5 oz, so really I’m sure I could just stop and be fine. It’s more of a goal to get to his first bday on Thursday for me. I really wanted to make it to his bday on the 19th, but I was overruled by the girls. Oh well. 11.5 months is still pretty good.

Here's the more important question - how do I stop eating like I'm still breastfeeding??? (Obviously will be dieting, just can't decide if it's worth starting now just to derail for N's bday/Christmas, or wait until after.) Note to self....finish my bag of chocolate covered pb pretzels this week! 😂

Right after I responded to your post here I went to lunch and got Chick Fil A and was thinking the same thing. I lost the weight so much easier this time with twins and also eat like a horse because of twins. I don't know how I'm going to stop!

You guys... There is a mouse in my H's car. I saw it when I was about to put DS2 in it, it ran. We can't find it. I was freaked out the whole time I was in his car today. There are currently several traps in his car and I bought a peppermint repellant for mine. I am not okay.

jules1614 AHHHHHH. This would be the cause of a car accident for me. Even if the mouse was gone, any random noise while driving I would probably freak. One time there was a huge moth that flew out of the AC/Heater vent and I'm surprised I didn't flip my car.

UGH jules1614 I would be not ok too! We had some get in our house two or three years ago (I think neighborhood fireworks on the 4th drove them inside) and now any time there are fireworks near by I freak out. Hope it’s gone soon!!!

Also to reference an earlier reply, I would kill for some Chik-fil-a right now. It’s peppermint chocolate milkshake time, isn’t it?!

One time there was a huge moth that flew out of the AC/Heater vent and I'm surprised I didn't flip my car. I warned my H that I would throw myself from the moving vehicle if it came out. He thought I was joking, I was not. And if one ever comes out while I'm driving, there will be an accident. Also, DS1 likes to play a game where he pretends there is a mouse or squirrel in the car, I told him he can't play that game anymore lol

And DS2 & DS3 were in lockdown, but should have been lockout (?) today.
To recap, 1 came home with pink eye and the other 2 came home telling me about bad guys being by their school and they had to lock the doors and keep quiet.
The street in front of our house is an ice rink. I would be having some wine if A would sleep in his crib.

CFA sucks me in regularly with free treats. I have a lot of points and I've only gone "solo" since they changed the app.

So I changed offices today and I'm now stuck training my replacement. This is going to be the slowest two weeks of my life.
Speaking of pumping, I was going to drop down from 2x to 1x this week, but then I didn't get a key to the pump room until 2pm...and then I couldn't get in there to check the schedule....
So I went all day without pumping and holy cow. I signed up for one spot at noon in the room this week, but I'll have to change it to go around conference calls tomorrow.
B turned 1 today (yay!) but he's in the infant room until January so they are ok sending BM until he moves up. He wants nothing to do with whole milk....

grumpycat, we recently started having wine on tap from our kegerator in the house and it is... dangerous. How much have I had? Who knows? Who cares? This is by far the most dangerous part of boxed wine.

(Obviously will be dieting, just can't decide if it's worth starting now just to derail for N's bday/Christmas, or wait until after.) I gained so much weight after I weaned last time since I didn’t adjust my diet. Really trying to be better this time around.
