Disney on Ice *was* fun, but yes, all the add-on fees are a bit ridiculous. If you go, prepare to spend a small mortgage payment on snacks, etc  (Not really, but I think popcorn, a couple 'souvenir' cup drinks, cotton candy and a bottled coke was around $50.) When I took Cadence to Trolls Live, the only popcorn option was a $22 souvenir bucket, which of course Cadence wanted. 🙄 😳😳 woah. Note to self.... stop at target for popcorn and carry a big purse. |

wedding did you get a lesson for C or did YH just teach him? We’ve been wanting to take the kids forever. I taught my cousins when they were like 10 and 12 so I could probably teach the older kids but not sure about T. We did a private lesson for his first hour which I think was a good move. He gets frustrated when he makes mistakes when we are showing him something and blames us. But when he learns from someone else he takes it all in. After the lesson my H took over and he did really well. I would love to go all the time but it’s just so expensive. |

Hi! It’s my mom’s last day before going home. L and I will miss her. E not so much.
E and I went grocery shopping and they gave her two balloons. She was the happiest little girl.
L and my mom went to a park with a pirate ship playground.
I finished this weeks homework.
I also just placed a big Gymboree order. Easter clothes are done.
I’m also done with overnights for awhile. I really enjoyed working with M. We have a lot in common.

I spent thr day at my mils helping her purge and organize her office. We took out 15 garbage bags between trash and goodwill. Insanity. But it looks amazing and now she can actually use it.

I told a friend of mine about the loss a few weeks ago. Yesterday she stopped by with a huge lush ‘self care’ package (including a rainbow bubble bar, which I thought was extra thoughtful) and a really sweet card. I think I’m getting my period today, so this came at the right time. Dh’s uncle and dad are putting the floors in the kids room, so I’m on kid duty. This is not my best parenting day. There’s another storm coming over, but I think we’ll take a walk to the market just to get some air.

Morning. I’m at work, training again for the last time with this person! I was woken up at 2:30 with both girls in my bed and H trying to push me off. Super annoying. I don’t want them in my bed period but having them in there when I have to wake up at 4:30 is the worst. It’s supposed to be 35 again today so I’m hoping more snow melts, I’m ready to see grass and my tulips coming up (which probably won’t happen till April anyway.

An indoor ski place just opened by us, maybe I will start there. |

Charlie’s a little too short for some of the rides at the theme park so hopefully by summer. |

Morning!
I slept til 9...lovely. Had my coffee and now I’m up and purging...I’m stressing about finding a house and when I stress, I clean. We just did the hall closet where we keep all the luggage and DH’s overflow of uniforms (and the huge box with my preserved wedding dress...I probably should’ve sold that thing lol).
Spies in Disguise is playing at the theater on base today so we’re taking the kids to see that after lunch.

kim22 you amaze me every day with your schedule, you must truly be supermom! Thanks, I always have preferred being busy. Before kids, I taught all day, then coached my high school gymnastics team from 3-5:30, then coached a private club team from 6-9 (except for one night a week where I went to grad school). I’m not good at relaxing. |

guster and jewels instead of exchanging gifts among the 10 nieces and nephews on my side, we said we will take them to Nickelodeon World. We haven’t gone yet because my nephew can’t do rides because of his hernia that he had removed last week. Once he is cleared, we will pick a day. guster the Waterpark was supposed to open in November but keeps getting pushed back. Nickelodeon sells tickets online but they are limited to 500 tickets per time slot so you have to make sure they have tickets before you book a trip. MH’s boss has done the skiing and said it was excellent.

MH and DS got season passes for Great Adventure for less than what 1 day there will cost us but I figure we will do it once. |

Want to piss your cats off? Buy slow feeders. My adult cats are pissed, but the vet thinks it will help my cat that is a binger/purger. If not then we'll do blood tests to see if something else is going on with her. But, since they all share bowls that means they all have to use them.

Morning, I went to a pilates reformer class and the instructor was "off". I'm not sure what was going on but either high or drunk. There were 4 people and afterwards we all basically ran out and were like wtf was that. She was cussing a lot and kind of yelling at people to do it the right way without giving any modifications. A regular said it's been a week and getting worse and unfortunately she's the owner 😳.
Now about to take j to bball. Mh is perpetually in a mood, so kind of dicey around here. I'm ready to say go to a hotel for a night to stop being such a grouch.

Yikes tallb that’s so weird about the instructor. Is it a new studio or was the woman saying the instructor/owner has been behaving like this for a week (but was previously ‘normal’) ? |

It's been there for years and I have really liked the classes in the past. I think I've had her before but it's been a while.. the regular said she's going through a divorce and it's clearly spilling into work. I hope it gets better, since someone could get hurt if they don't actually know what they are doing. |
