Stay Inside Friday

[chrisy01]

What’s going on ladies?

[chrisy01]

Morning! Since California is on orders to stay inside (also known as a lockdown) I’m heading to work in awhile. I have to return some equipment and drop off some paperwork and pickup more paperwork.

C’s work is officially closed. They are paying him until April 2nd. Then we have to decide if we use his PTO or go to temp unemployment.

I think I will find out today what’s happening with my job. Based on my Director changing the weekly team checkin to just this week, I think we will be going out as well.

Morning! I'm home today, thank goodness.

I'm trying to WFH, but my laptop won't connect. And I have work I need to get done. Hoping after the interview, everything is back how it should be.

[chrisy01]

Welp I was just told not to go in...this sucks.

I’m sorry.

I don’t think I posted yesterday. H has had a temp of 101-102 the last couple days. He doesn’t want to eat much or sleep.

In other news, I think I need to buy a car ASAP, since production has been shut down. We had planned on going this weekend but I don’t want my in laws around H if he still has a fever, so I may have to go by myself.

At the urologist. A just went back for his vasectomy. The boys stayed at my moms last night.

tgrimes, go in knowing exactly how much you're willing to pay each month. Look online at the specific dealer so you know what they have in stock ahead of time. I hope H is ok.

[chrisy01]

tgrimes poor H. I just want to give him a whole new immune system

[klong11]

mwhip, is your work computer on? Ours have to be on in order for our laptops to connect at home.

[klong11]

I guess the attorneys realized today was my last in office day. I've got a stack of opinions to read.

[chrisy01]

mwhip for my work computer to work I had to download a program for it to connect to work files

I know how much I can put down and how much I can afford monthly. Luckily, my sister’s H has worked in finance at car dealerships for the last 20 years. He actually told me I’d get a better deal in OK but I don’t think it’s a good idea for me to drive up there during all of this.

It really just comes down to who can give me a better deal. My down payment won’t be available until next week though. So it’s not like I can actually buy anything this weekend. I can just figure it out and then I’ll have to go back next week.

Poor H, tgrimes! I hop the car buying goes well. What are you looking at?
chrisy01, I’m sorry!

Either a Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander.

We did some school work, Charlie’s playing with mh and Josie wanted to learn to roller skate. She’s falling a lot and it’s making me laugh. Luckily, she has no fear and gets right back up.

I looked at pilot and loved it, but the mini van life beckoned me.

Ooh, exciting! I like both of those.

Morning. It’s like 15 degrees outside and I’m not impressed. The girls and I need to drive to target at some point for the pick up order I placed. Probably not till this afternoon when it warms up some. At least it’s sunny. Other than that it’s the same as every other day.

tgrimes poor H, I hope he is feeling better quickly and you’re able to find a great deal on a car.

[flamingo]

Morning!

guster roller skating sounds fun! Our school has done a couple events at a local rink but we weren’t able to go. My friend described her 6 y.o. as looking like a baby deer on ice, lol.

We’re working on school stuff. Glad to see the week coming to an end so we can have a couple days to just relax. The pool is still way too cold but since we’ve had a couple warm days/nights DH turned on the hot tub for the kids, so we’ll let them swim in that today. Cold is coming back tmrw tho :/

[chrisy01]

My husband and I might be divorcing after this is all done. He hasn’t even been off work 24 hours and he’s already angering me.

Some of these are pretty funny.

Morning ladies.

tgrimes, ugh, your poor boy. Good luck with car shopping. I second what klong11 said about researching inventory and knowing what you might want before you even get there.

chrisy01 sorry things are frustrating with work and trying to manage cooped up at home. I have to say I'm impressed with how Disney has set an example thus far though--shutting down before other companies did, at least through the end of the month paying employees, rolling out Frozen 2 early and now doing the same with Onward. It's nice that they are doing things for the morale of the public at large despite the temporary losses they'll face.

[inthekitty]

Just work today, nothing too exciting. Maybe do popcorn and a movie tonight. Something to make things exciting. I'm a bit annoyed my kids watch Secret Life of Pets 2 without me though. It'll probably either be that or Wonder Park which is on Prime.

I know what they are doing is for the best. But I think I won’t get the same 2 weeks paid without working like those who got it now.

Morning. It's Friday and had bagels at home and will maintain pizza/movie night for the kids. J made a list for a scavenger hunt, so will go out and do that later. We had a conference call and k was sooo angry, mh finally came and took her for a bit, but then retreated back to his desk🙄.

If you know any younger people not taking this seriously, make sure they stay home. My friend's sister is treating a healthy 30 year old in the ICU with it.

Oh and I saw that hospitals are requesting people sew masks 🤯. I do know how to sew.. but really, I am appalled we are in this situation.

Does anyone know if they make pajamas for Barbie dolls? Cadence has been insisting she needs pajamas for them and I can't find any. Barbie apparently doesn't sleep, she's too busy going to the moon, taking care of triplets, and keeping her animal boarding business above water.

I’m sorry about H. tgrimes Hope is feels better soon. Also, good luck on the car shopping!

chrisy01 I’m sorry. Hope everything falls in your favor there.

tallb Earlier this week I wondered how this could affect all those teens and young 20s that have been vaping the last few years.
