I know the weather is still crazy for some of you. It was 80 one day this week and will be cold enough to snow overnight, although they moved the accumulation to central Missouri.

How is everyone today?
I'm up early. But I was in bed at 8:30 last night because I felt like crap. I can hear H and E softly snoring from opposite ends of the house while drinking a hot cup of coffee in a dark living room.
We finally get our new sofas tomorrow. Other than that, nothing exciting.

Morning! Chilly and rainy over here but I’m so happy it’s the weekend! We got caught up watching The Act last night and didn’t realize what time it was. Dragging a little today, but we don’t have any big plans.

Morning! New sofas are pretty exciting in my book mwhip! Thunderstorms here today, I guess four days in a row of good weather was just too much to ask 🙄 At least it’s not snowing, though! Just prepping for our trip today (we leave in the morning), and hopefully sneaking in some Masters-watching. tgrimes Adam Scott is tied for the lead Obligatory AS photo for your viewing pleasure  |

We're going to see SD in her high school production of Shrek the musical. Lord help us it will, it will not be great but E will love it. Not sure what we'll do for the rest of the day but I need coffee right now

Morning! I'm at work. I'm hoping all the white crap melts by the end of the weekend, which it should because it's supposed to be in the 40s-50s. Today is going to be a long boring day at work. IT is upgrading the workqueues that are 80% of what I do at work, and we can't work them. So youtube and web searching it is. I don't think we have anything planned for the afternoon.

Dragging a little today, but we don’t have any big plans. What is The Act? It’s a Hulu series (still going —5/8 have been released) It was an HBO documentary last summer or spring. It’s the story of Gypsy Rose and her mom. It’s done in flashbacks —starting with a murder back to a really sad story of abuse— Munchhausen by proxy. |

Morning all.
I had amazing dreams that I was sexing Chuck Bass from Gossip Girl, yet I woke up to my snoring husband and B tapping repeatedly on my shoulder. So, needless to say i want to be back asleep.
It’s gorgeous here and we’ve got a busy day ahead of errands and getting the yard ready for the guys to come in and do spring clean up next week, hopefully they do it in time so we can have the Easter egg hunt outside next Sunday. I’ve got to get the kids Easter baskets figured out also this weekend.

Good morning. I have a cold. T has his t-ball opening day parade this morning. DS1 has hockey practice for a new tournament team he is playing on and DD has soccer.
Tomorrow is a hockey game and then DD has an off season gymnastics competition that is a fundraiser for an anti bullying organization created after the suicide of a 12 year old gymnast. I have not discussed suicide with her yet. She knows the meet is for a gymnast who died who happens to share her name but I’m not sure what is going to be said at the meet so I should probably talk to her later. She will be competing then she and I are working at the next session so we can watch the older girls and then her coach is doing an adult competition so she wants to see that.
When we are done, we will head to the beach for a few days because it’s spring break week.

I heard the HBO movie wasn’t great, but I had read about the story on BuzzFeed and stayed with me I haven't seen the movie either. I actually heard a My Favorite Murder episode where they talked about it a few months ago (I'm listening from the beginning so it's on an early episode) and have been interested since. That poor girl and what she had to go through, breaks your heart. |

No, I haven't. I'm currently working through MFM and then when I'm caught up I have a few podcasts on my list, including the Murderville series you told me about a while back. |

Currently at gymnastics, then headed to Pinballz for a birthday party. We're also supposed to go to a birthday at a park this afternoon but it's raining pretty steadily, so it may get moved to tomorrow. If it gets postponed to tomorrow, then we'll miss the Easter egg hunt at a different park. We'll see what happens.

kim22 if I am correct in remembering your daughter’s name, I know the family (the mom). She is lovely and when this all happened it really shook me up. Such an awful story. I’ve read all the details and the lawsuits etc and it just is so terrible to even think about. I’m sure talking to your daughter will be terrible too. How old is she now?

Also. Hi!
I’ve been fighting a tummy bug all week, not full blown, just at the nuisance level. Haven’t eaten yet today but I’m feeling better this morning so far
Had karate and just found out our first T ball game is cancelled from last bight’s rain. S is pretty bummed about it so I’ll have to find something fun this afternoon

Morning! My BIL arrived yesterday for 2 weeks. But MH is gone till tomorrow night, so I’m stuck entertaining him and feeding him. Wonder if he likes cereal 😂.
This is the first weekend I’ve been home in a month so I’m trying to catch up on housework. But tomorrow stars my “summer schedule” where I work weekends and my days off will be in the middle of the week.

Morning, just got back from Barre and mh promptly left to go to some brunch with a retired baseball player he won. Tball game was just cancelled due to mud even though it'll be sunny and 80 later today, but the coach emailed and we may have a practice or scrimmage.
Or we may go to the car show in the city to check our car options, otherwise we will do that tomorrow.

We went to a dog adoption event this morning. No one we bonded with but there was a big black lab getting a bath in the self bathe area that we all loved so I think I’ve convinced them to look at black labs when we are ready which maybe years out but it’s fun to look. Now we are at the arcade. Tonight Dh and I are going out for his birthday so that will be nice.
