I just submitted the last of my finals for my class. The next one starts Tuesday. Now I’m celebrating with cake. I’m working on laundry and cleaning the living room.

Where they invite you via Facebook and say bring cash instead of gifts to pay for the wedding and honeymoon. The rehearsal dinner was at a restaurant with no reservation and the couple wanted to limit the orders to $9. Groom hadn't tried on shirt before ceremony and couldn't button the top because it was too small I would also use the descriptors: trashy, redneck, cheap Just so that you know, using the word ghetto to describe something like this is considered racist. Since ghettos were/are traditionally areas that have a high number of minorities describing something as such with a negative connotation infers a negativity to the minority’s population. Does that make sense? It’s hard to put into words. And I say this as kindly as possible since I don’t believe that was your intention. Just as something to think/learn about. |

mamabear I’d do one of the soft blue/gray colors I agree. I like navy in theory but I think with the dark floors it might go *too* dark. |

Cs bday party was great! I did nothing except bring a cake. The kids had a blast and C was thrilled. He had a karate/patriots theme. My photos won’t upload but trust there was no where near the thought or creativity cagoldi’s party had! My mom also got released. She’s doing well on solid food and her ct scan looked good. Yay! |

Just got home from the doctor. She thinks it’s some form of skin infection so she prescribed keflex 3x a day for a week, and daily showers with a new towel each time.

@ladeedah trtlcrzy, flamingo. Thanks! That was what I was thinking so confirmation is good. Leaning towards the top left (light gray/blue) over the top right (light aqua-ish) in that pic of the 3. I like that one |

Birthday party was great! I give the host mom major props, there were probably 35 kids running around? Nerves of steel, lol. They had a big backyard and set up a haunted house for the kids, which was a hit. All the kids wore their costumes and looked so cute. I knew several of the moms there, a couple that I’m getting to be friends with, and we now have a wine-date planned.

My mom turns 50 this year (on 11/20) my dad decided to throw her a surprise party early to throw her off. So we started planning for that for the 8th. Not a huge thing, but about 30 people. She told me months ago that if we did anything, make sure her friend Angela was invited. She has 8 Angela's in her friends list 🤦♀️ I have no idea which one it is.

And shes an old work friend so I've never actually met her. |

I can’t wait to go to bed but I’m waiting for my 9 year old to get home and she’s bringing a friend to sleepover. I will never survive the teenage years.

I should go to bed but it’s my only alone time all week and I need it.
Sadly we aren’t doing our annual road race this year. We planned on it but I did t sign up due to arthritis in my left knee and dh faield to train. We were still going to go so C could do the kids run but it’s going to be heavy rain and would be a mess. I’m sad we won’t get our annual pics since we line up all the years C runs but I am thrilled to have no plans tomorrow.

Morning. I’m at work and having a hard time staying awake. I slept fine last night so I’m blaming this on pregnancy. S came into my bed MOTN and she felt very warm. DH checked her temp this morning and it’s 103. I’m guessing she has whatever H had on Thursday. Hopefully it’ll go away as quickly.

Morning, I'm nursing k mid-mom pre-picture freak out. It's pouring so I'm trying to move all the excessive toys downstairs since we are doing them inside. I'm pissed bc the rain stops at 12:30 and our pix are 11:30-12. Please pray for my sanity.
But after a very fussy night evening, K gave me a 6 hour stretch🙌.

The weather sucks. I need to do a Costco run, return a bunch of clothes to the mall, and buy DS1 some pants that aren’t too short. We also need to pick our healthcare coverage for next year and I need to write a letter to get approval for my post-graduate courses. It’s not a good time for them but I checked my calendar and there is no better time for at least 20 years so I’m going to start. DD has also decided she wants to run a marathon. She is 9 years too young according to a google search so now she would like a fake ID for the purpose of marathon running.

Morning! tallb High five for a good night's sleep (relatively speaking  I hope the pictures turn out well, maybe the rain will hold off. Hope she feels better soon trtlcrzy! Bad weather moving in here today, too. It's also warm...like, 80. Bleh. Fall is my favorite season here so I'm feeling cheated. DH ran to the store, he is making us veal chops and risotto tonight. I should probably clean up or something but after all the go-go-go yesterday it's nice to be lazy. |

You would have to go with her (not the actual run but be there to drop her off and meet her at the finish line. |
