So we are at the end of our first week of extended days and I swear to god guys, I don't know if I'm going to make it another 4 weeks. My 8-year-olds have no breaks for 3 hours in the afternoon and by 2:00 they are so done. Behaviors are beyond terrible. I have three notes going home today that parents need to sign because of behavior. This is so rare. Even with moving them around the room and giving them brain breaks in the classroom isn't helping. If I was a drinking girl, I would be having a tall one tonight. that sounds like a nightmare. I’m sorry

Hi, all! I am so so glad it is Friday. I need a weekend. I actually even have a long weekend, because I work the following Saturday. I am so bummed though. The little league that DD1 is in for T ball cancelled opening day ceremonies tomorrow because it is supposed to rain all day. Which, I understand, but now the opening day will be the following Saturday- when I work. I purposely made sure that I wasn't working that day so I could be there. Oh well. The babysitter is going to go and hang out with DD2, so I will have her take videos (H will be coaching). My coworker’s son was starting t ball today as well with ceremonies and he was bummed it would be rained out too. (Same-ish area as you). We were planning our a local parade with the kids but it’s canceled too. Now for rainy day pls with the kids....

Last night a friend called me crying asking about my experiences because she had a MMC and had just left the dr. I’m so heartbroken for her. I’m planning on making a casserole and care package and taking it up to her during nap time. 😢

Our Saturday started with taking a puke-covered toddler out of her crib. I woke up to her coughing around midnight, but then she rolled over and went back to sleep, so she seemed fine. Apparently, she had actually thrown up and then she slept in it until almost 7. So gross. Pray for me that it was a one time thing and not this awful stomach bug! Poor E. I hope it's just a fluke. Thanks! So far, so good. After her bath, she had a bottle of milk and ate a scrambled egg for breakfast. She’s been acting totally normal. . Now it’s 9:30 and she’s down for a nap, so I hope we’re in the clear.

Nothing more disappointing than ordering chick fil a and having them forget your sauce 😣
Willing the baby to go down for a nap now. The big kid is all ready to go down too but I like to plan it out to maximize my own nap time hahaha!

I have started hoarding CFa sauce and have a special place in my cabinet for it. 🤣 We are actually headed there for lunch per DD1’s request.

We basically just went to Costco and said “we will take one of everything!” Lol. So now I get to play Tetris in the fridge and freezer...
The cupboards were pretty bare but we got a lot of stuff.

Ha I hate when we load up at Costco, spend like $200 and then come home and wonder what we should make for lunch! 🤣

Dh took ds with him on a long drive to buy some tools. I kept dd and we went to the store to get things for 2 lasagnas (might as well make us one too). I had the foresight to try to meal plan, so I think I actually have dinners through the week! It’s rainy a lot, so easy soup for vegetarian Monday, and then making Pho slow cooker again Thursday so we can feed ILs with it too. Now I’m scarfing down some bbq pizza from sprouts and will try to get dd down for a nap. She wouldn’t take one yesterday and was a mess by bedtime. 🤦♀️

Thanks everyone. As I expected, he was negative for the flu and seems fine today. Like I said, he’s a hypochondriac.
I picked up a new swimsuit and a new work dress today so I think I am basically ready for my trip next week. I’m currently getting a pedicure and drinking wine. No one is hanging on me or whining at me. I even splurged on the deuxe so it would last 10 extra minutes. I may never leave.
Maybe a flameful confession: Target is clearancing a bunch of bras. A lot of nursing bras. The one I have been wearing for three years was on clearance for $6 so I bought 2. But, we only nurse before bed and I don’t plan on ever having another nursling. I just really like the way they fit. 🤷🏼♀️

Their pizza is so good!

Their pizza is so good! H and I always go to sams at lunch when B is at daycare so it’s easier and we can get lunch there. I realize Costco has better food. My town is suppose to get one by the end of this year.
