peachsmama we had a front come thru overnight, too. Almost April and it’s 50 degrees out. Grrr. Flamingos are not meant for this!

Morning!
Another exciting day here...so many possibilities...do I polish silver? Vacuum blinds? Clean the ceiling fans?
Today is our 8th anniversary. TBH I think we both kinda forgot about it til one day late last week 😂 So I think we’ll just get take-out and call the new house our present, ha.

Morning. We are expecting another beautiful day here. H got the call last night to not come back to work until April 9th. So it's now the 3 of us, home, all day, every day. I already had to kick him off the internet because we have such shitty service in this town, that with both him and E online, I kept getting kicked off my work connection. Dude is going to have to find something to do besides sit on the sofa and check facebook all god damn day. I told him I was going to make him a honey-do list and he laughed and told me to make it...which means he wouldn't do it. But he does have a few projects he has been talking about for a few years, that he could easily do during this time. Like stain the fence and deck.
The nice thing about him being here...I can easily go for a run daily since he will be here to watch Evie.

Morning! Infusion day here today! At least I didn't have to take off work for it since I am working from home! I think tomorrow I am going to go to the office and grab some things to make working from home more comfortable since it looks like we will have at least another month of this. Did anyone bring home their monitors/keyboard/ect? I hate working from my laptop and am considering bringing my 2 monitors home. Lol. But I don't want to be too...extra. And if it was just going to be a week or two I would probably stick it out. But I feel like I will be more productive if I have the comforts of my dual monitors and a better...spread. Especially since it looks like this is going to be life for at least another month. I don't know. I am probably overthinking this too much.

lfig, not extra, get the monitor. We weren't allowed to bring ours home. I was just going to bring one. I can do a lot of little admin tasks for my job, but not write reports without a second monitor. Our boss wouldn't let us bring them home and they're on back order everywhere.

I've got my plan for work today and hoping I can get it all done with the kids because tomorrow I have to physically go into work and do other stuff.
The sun is out for now. I appreciate that. Focusing on little things.

Morning!
Finished up some assignments with Josie and Charlie this morning, and now I’m on to muffins and laundry.
It looks like the sun is trying to peak out here so I hope we can get a bit in the yard.
Otherwise, same old.

Morning. It’s supposed to get to 60 degrees here today which is great. I had a terrible night of sleep last night because S ended up in my bed and continually tried to push me off the edge. It’s not happening again. I will make DH carry her to her room. My dentist appt got pushed out again because the office has to close. It’s just an extra pregnancy cleaning so I’m not super worried about it at this point. I need to run out to one store to get a couple things so we will probably get lunch at a drive thru. I have to work tonight, but I’m cool with it because it gets me out of the house for a few hours.

I’m obsessed with those videos of whipped coffee everywhere so I had time to add the ingredients to my Instacart order. It really is the little things!

Morning.
I’m at work doing the screenings. I’m in a not so busy area today and the time is dragging.
We did the dole whip cupcakes yesterday and they are good.

I'm wearing makeup and jewelry daily, but I'm also on video calls for hours every day. I am, however, taking this time to wash my hair less. Because of running, I normally wash it everyday, but it gets so dry and I assume I won't be able to get a cut for awhile. So loads of dry shampoo it is!

I put on make up almost every day, but it’s just concealer, blush & mascara, I’m skipping the lipstick.

I run the blowdryer brush through my hair every day and I dry it nicely after I wash it, but it’s usually back up on a pony tail by 930.
No make up, but I am still putting on moisturizer morning and night.

I put make up on every other day or so. Just to feel human. I'm struggling today. I dont feel good. Just drained and tired and weak. And I cant get warm. I had the electric fireplace on all morning and I guess I've never had it on long enough that it go hot to the touch.. mallory pulled herself up to it and burned 2 fingers 😔 blisters formed almost immediately. And girl is grumpy today.

Happy anniversary jewels! I’m averaging make up about one day a week (if I go out for groceries...don’t want to scare people!) I told DH first things I’m doing when we can go out again normally are a mani/pedi and Botox 😂 |

Also hi! I’m so freaking tired. I went the office for a little bit today, we had a job that was just to difficult to do on a tiny screen and alone. My coworker and I sat on the other side of the office and another on conference call. Schools are staying closed untill April 28, after that school would be closed for two weeks anyway due to spring vacation. Maybe they’ll stay closed for longer, but I’m sort of relieved that they’re doing small increments in stead of just closing the schools for the rest of the year, which might happen, but it’s good to have a little hope  . |

Now that we have to wear masks at work, I only put on concealer, mascara, and a little bronzer on my forehead.

Our governor just closed until May 1st. |

I was mostly kidding about the obscure/old-ladyish household chores but guess who is currently ironing a bed skirt.
