Morning! H woke up with an attitude so I think we are going to have a great day 🙄Nothing really planned for the day except a trip to Aldi for some milk. I also have a strong feeling we will be hearing fireworks every night starting tonight. I guess I'm grumpy, ugh. ::Runs and hides:: Love you 😘

Patio set update:
I bought the one from Home Depot last night online. Now I have 7 days to pick it up at my local store. But I have a Jetta...so, this will be interesting.

Morning! MH got some good news this morning. He was selected to be the acting Chief of Law Enforcement and Emergency Services for a 4 month detail in our park. Our current Chief is retiring next week. He will apply for the permanent job too but there will likely be a lot more competition for that. But this will give him a chance to show the Superintendent what a great job he will do 😉. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk That's huge lfig!! Congratulations!

Congrats to YH lfig! Safe travels today to all! Yay for a good interview snoopmommymom! cheeksmum I was hesitant to send M 7 hours away with my ILs this past week, but he went and did really well. Never asked for us and was very well behaved according to them. Give it a shot if there aren't any other factors that you are worried about. Happy anniversary kim22! I hope you feel better today to enjoy date night. Thanks suza! He still won't touch the baby but he comes close and is very interested. I hope one day they are inseparable. That would make my heart content. 😊

Update: All of the blueberries sank to the bottom of my cake, Marry Berry would not be pleased. This always happens to me with chocolate chips in banana bread. Drive me bananas. See what I did there...

Especially because there are trucks all over the parking lot and I'll pop the trunk of the car.

Morning.
So the baby had his first decent night and I had a crappy one. Universe...I am not laughing. The entire side of my boob was hard and had knots, so I figured I had possibly several plugged ducts. I spent 3.5 hours trying to get it to drain. Nothing worked. Hot rice sock, massage, hot shower, pump. At the third hour I was in tears because I really just wanted it to soften and I don't want to get mastitis. Baby nursed that side around 530 am and it's softened quoted a bit, but still tender and only a little hard in one small area. Crisis maybe averted.

A vibrator works. So I've heard...

See what ai did there... I think there's a trick about coating whatever you're putting in, in flour before folding into the batter. So they cling to the batter.

yum yum yum - enjoy cagoldi and let us know what you think! I always liked the veg dog w medium hot sauce and lilikoi. Looks like I can't do any of their secret sauces because they all have milk, but I think I'm going to try the lilikoi mustard and star fruit relish. This all sounds a little too exotic for Dude. I hope they have ketchup. We're going to be those people. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yea, you will be fine w the fruit sauces! I know it sounds weird as hell. It is really delicious though. Haha, they do have ketchup. He will totally be THAT person.

I was going to suggest nursing, but then didnt know if you BF or not. Anyways, I am glad it worked itself out!

"Poor distribution."
MH and I critique our pastries and bread now like Paul and Mary. "It hasn't proved long enough."

I am just catching up from a busy morning, so this is where I turn into a PW. I found out my sorority does a program where they send a yearly birthday card to your legacy until they turn 16. So obviously I signed B up for that. What a cute idea!
Then I just have to complain about an executive here who thinks he has all these brilliant ideas for me on how to recruit (he is not in HR at all). "I see people walking up and down the streets all day, pushing strollers, walking dogs, there are people here who want jobs. Why arent you going after them!" What?? Just because you saw someone outside your window, doesn't mean they are available for employment or want to be employed. He is also suggesting I tap into a group of recently laid off employees from an organization that is similar to ours. OK, and just how do I find said employees. I'm sure XYZ organization doesn't just turn over contact info for employees they have laid off. I hate when Execs become so out of touch w reality. They have no idea how the world works while they sit away in their ivory towers.
