My husband is selling one of his motorcycles today. The guy has been here for hours. They got back from the test ride more than an hour ago. They're just now headed off to the bank to notarize the title, because apparently you have to do that in this state (previous state, you could just sign it over). My husband hasn't had a good play date in ages, so I suppose it's okay.

We are actually in our likely/probably/hopefully new town of residence this week. It's supposed to storm most of our time here but we got a couple solid hours of beach time this afternoon and it was glorious. J is such a fish and M adores the sand. I love it all and so does MH. We are in a rental to test out one of the builders in the area and we all love the house. It just feels so right!

It'll be back to 80 by the weekend. You should visit sometime Yeah she has been out there for about 5 years now and loves it! She works for an outdoor sporting goods company that's based in the B town so she hooks us up with great discounts on outdoor gear. She will never move back East, she is a crazy hiker and biker. I admire her activity levels! ETA I do need to visit her when Covid calms down and we should meet up!

You guyzzzzz, I got a bug bite ON MY FACE. In addition to like 8 other bites from sitting outside last night for like 10 minutes before I remembered and grabbed a bug stick. The stupid mosquito was still there even in the smoke from the stick. I finally squished it, but man. I need to get a handle on this bug situation or we're moving west again.
I also got a text from my brother with a picture of the snow after a 90 degree day. CO at least seems to be less on fire than where we came from.

I’m just so angry. About everything. All the time.
Anxiety? Or just a permanent bad attitude?

My big girl is off to Kindergarten today! She walked right in and didn’t even turn back. Her sisters already asked when she comes home. Lol

MH hand delivered his signed contract this afternoon. We are officially moving, and feeling great about the decision. He starts March 1 so we have a lot to do when we get back. And, the owner of our Airbnb offered to let us stay an extra night for free because we had some AC issues our first night here and he was appreciative of us being so chill about it. So we are staying an extra night! Despite the near constant rain it has been a fun and productive trip so far. It's fun to hear the kids opinions on houses and neighborhoods.

At 5:30 I forced myself out of bed, got some clothes on and fed the cat.
Last night I set up an a meeting at 6am to go over forecast stuff. My meeting is now rescheduled to Monday at 6:30am.
I'm not even mad. It's kind of peaceful sitting with my coffee and working with no one up.

Welp. We're taking Nugget to get her ears pierced this evening. She's been asking and I've been putting her off, but J really wants to let her do it and promised he'll deal with all the ear cleaning (he's got lots of tattoos and had piercings when I met him), so we're doing it. We had a long talk with her last night about how it will hurt, and she'll have to let us clean them, and she can't take them out for a long time. We have an appointment at 6 with a piercer at a tattoo shop who was recommended to us.

That's what we plan to do when R is ready (she wants them pierced but hadn't gotten over the fear of it hurting)

I'm so tired this morning. I called yesterday to make an appointment to get Ws jaundice levels checked again and they gave us the first appointment in the morning (8 am). Normally I'd be taking a nap, but MIL came to visit so no napping for now. On the plus side, W is gaining appropriately and her jaundice levels are down.

I was trying to get E to take a nap today but instead, she tucked me in to her bed, turned off the light and said “see you in mornin’!”
So I’m having some quiet time and I can hear her and B reading in the next room.

I’m so flabbergasted right now. And I don’t even know where this post goes. But it’s random. So. We went out to dinner tonight. When we got home, H and I went to the chick barn and kids went to the house. On our way back in, we (H and I) stopped in the garage to look for a specific moving box we haven’t unpacked yet. And guys. Somehow. Someway. I stepped in fresh poop. In our closed garage. That neither dogs nor chickens had been in. I was shocked and appalled and confused. But I left my dirty shoe and the mess for mh to deal with, and I went inside to check on kids. I get inside, and wouldn’t you know. P drank too much water at the restaurant and peed on the floor. Remember how I took off my shoe bc I stepped in poop? Well now I also stepped in pee. Barefoot. Think that’s bad? Think that’s weird? Then we’re sitting on the couch. And mh says someone smells like booty. Did someone poop them self? And E gets this face. And I’m like oh. Hell. No. Y’all. She pooped in the garage. She was wearing JEANS. God bless America someone make this make sense.

tj I'm giggling but trying to do so very quietly because mh is on the other end of the couch and trying to explain this seems difficult so instead there are little tears coming out and any minute now he is going to look over and think I'm crying over Schitts Creek. Poop. In. Jeans.
