Trying to keep my eyes open. I already gave DH strict instructions that when the kids wake up this weekend he is to load them up and go to his parents. I need to sleep in for a few hours. I'm wiped out. I need a reset.

FWP: My coworker always stops and gets our coffee from Dunkin in the morning since she lives 2 minutes from the bank. Well they've messed hers up like 5 times in a row and a few times the last couple weeks. And she's tired of paying for bad coffee so she's not going anymore. I'm going to have to get my own coffee.
Not like they forgot sugar or something easy to fix. Like they put chai tea in her vanilla iced coffee. It was so gross.

Morning. Dd was up most of the night, lord knows what her deal was. We're slowly lowering the dose of her medication to see if she still needs it, I hope it's not due to that. I just decorated my coworker's desk, she's getting married next week, with some 'bride to be stuff'. Tonight I'm going to wrap a whole bunch of presents for one of my best friend, who's due in 4 weeks, a present for each of the first 10 days after the baby's is born. I've got the cutest wrapping paper and stamps to decorate everything! I love doing stuff like this 😊. Hope the kids and our building neighbours comply with my plans.

Morning. I go back to work today. Boo. It was such a nice break. Today is MH's birthday. The girls can finally give him the Minion underwear they picked out for him. They've only let it slip a half dozen times.

She has and they always replace it but she's just frustrated with it at this point. Hopefully she gets over it because I don't want to have to get up 5 minutes earlier lol.

Just woke up! My MIL texted at 6 that all is well and bedtime went smoothly and kids were still asleep. They are taking them all to the beach today. Meanwhile Dh and I are chilling this morning and then headed to Foxwoods (a casino in CT) for the night. I'm excited to have a mini get away.

I do this sometimes if she forgets or doesn't stop and my boss isn't here. But I don't like doing it when he's here.

I should try their iced coffee and see if I like it.

I tried to buy the stuff to make it myself and it was gag worthy. I'll just have to get up 5 minutes earlier. Or wait for coworker to change her mind lol. Fingers crossed for the latter.

This is where my head is at right now I'm shocked I'm so emotional about this. I've been craving this, bragging about it to everyone for months. And now I'm sad! Wtf!

Morning! I prefer Starbucks iced coffee to Dunkin' Donuts. DD feels a little watered down to me, but I wouldn't say no to it. We have dance this morning. They added tap to Josie's class this year, and all of the girls are so adorably excited about their shoes. It's a nice group of moms, too. Otherwise it's gray and dreary here, so we'll probably hang around the house and continue the cleaning frenzy. Thinking of you this morning, Cher. I hope you were able to rest last night.

Morning! It's my Friday at work! Everyone is suppose to be here today. J'e first day back from vacation, S called out yesterday but said she would be here today.
Boss B gave me the talk about taking lunch and accurate time recording. I think she's trying to ding S for taking long lunches but can't if I'm not actually taking a lunch (apparently it's a bigger deal to HR then taking a long lunch)

wedding I soooo get this! I always feel weird and guilty about being in our house if the kids aren't there. Any chance you can book a hotel room, even if just for one night? Or just take a fun day trip. Btw I looooovethe look of his room and the sheets, where are they from?

Morning gals. We had a busy/great weekend and 4th. Had some friends and their sweet sons over for a BBQ, the kids had a blast, and I got the chat with my friend for a while and snuggle her 2 month old. Best. Back at it at work today, and then we have a wedding tomorrow afternoon so my parents are taking the kids overnight. Cher, contractions? Hope everything is ok, love. peachsmama DD and sbx iced coffee are very different -- I do like sbx cold brew, though. It's strong but smooth.

Morning! Cher I hope you're feeling good and the ob appointment goes well! We are leaving for Amarillo tomorrow. I have so much work/laundry to do but I'm drinking coffee in bed instead. Last night A and I got in an epic fight that started at 9 and lasted until 2 with him on the couch. This happens to us before big things (like a funeral). This one felt different.

wedding, I felt that way too when V used to stay overnight with my parents! And for the record, sbux iced coffee is fantastic and best when you sub a flavored syrup for classic. Substitutions don't cost extra! I like cinnamon dolce and a splash of half and half. Always light ice.

If you are going to get iced coffee at Stbx, order a grande hot version of your drink and a venti cup of ice. Then pour your drink into the ice. If you order a venti iced coffee, they are basically going to do the exact same, but charge you for a venti, when really you're getting a grande in a venti cup of ice. KWIM?
