Not delightful. Hope tonight will be better. I'm trying to find a weighted blanket that I can pick up today to see if that will help. I'm really tired of these nightly wakeups. That’s a good idea. FX it’ll help. ETA: is he a snorer? |

nam2013 I had a dream that you had quadruplets. Sage, Iris, Tate and Nell. Oh my 😱😱😱. Just the one, although according to my mom I’m huge and she’s not sure if it’s just one in there 🙄. Every pregnant woman's favorite thing to hear.. |

Boy mom help needed — how do I get the urine smell out of the bathroom?? I have bleached the floors, scrubbed the grout w a toothbrush (!!), wiped the toilet w bleach cleaner and had the cleaners here. I still smell it. C has been waking up MOTN and using the bathroom, but apparently just shooting it all over the place.
I have ideas on how to help prevent this from continuing (nightlights etc), but I need to know how to get the current smell out now.

Hi!
I couldn’t fall asleep last night and I was so tired this morning. I worked temp screenings half the day and ready for a nap. Not sure if I will be able to take one.
The girl we are wanting to help with M’s school if necessary is coming over to meet the neighbors and I told her I would cook. MH mentioned her to them because they have been looking for someone to watch their kids while they work. I was a little annoyed with Mh because while I told him that I thought about seeing if she was interested in helping them, I wasn’t going to do so until I figured out what is happening school wise for us and M. I need to secure my own childcare before I offer up the one person I know that can help me to other people. He always jumps the gun on things we talk about, but I don’t necessarily put a time to. Like dude, CHILL.

I know I’ve seen stuff at Lowe’s, Home Depot specifically for “urine” stains/smells/etc. I think by Clorox?? Have you washed the shower curtain or bath rug to see if that helps? Baking soda box to trap the smell? Burn it down? Lol just kidding. |

Once I washed that, I was good. |

Have you taken the toilet seat off completely? I find the pee gets trapped under the plastic pieces that you snap the seat on and off with |

yummeecookee I had that a while back, I did everything you have been doing but ended up actually having to unscrew the toilet seat and found the smell, it was nasty. After a while I even changed out the whole seat since it seemed it was in the plastic screw. Good luck, I hope you find the source. Eta: i see Kim covered it

Morning lovely ladies. Early start today for me today. I had to get a vaccine, before babies would get a whooping cough vaccine at 8 week at the earliest. Since last year pregnant women get it around 22 weeks and then baby is protected for the first 10 weeks. Hopefully I won’t run run a temperature 🤒 due to it. I’m meeting a friend for pizza at her parents allotment tonight, looking forward to it  . That’s interesting. I have gotten the whooping cough shot with every pregnancy. Yes! I’ve read that the uk/usa have been doing it for years now. Not sure why they just added it to the nation wide vaccine programme, but I’ll happily oblige and get the shot . |

I spent 3 hours mowing today. Then hung out with SIL and my nephews for a few hours. Now we're getting dinner.
A neighborhood near us has arranged food truck nights every week. So we're waiting on tacos and street corn now. I'm in the car with a snoozing MJ and J. A and M are getting food. A kills me. I told him to get tortilla chips on the side since the boys get guac and won't eat it, I'll eat it. And he's like well they're not on the menu. Well no, but they sell nachos, so they have tortilla chips. I can't be the first to want tortilla chips with my Mexican food. Just ask! He never wants to ask for anything that's not already specified and it drives me nuts.
All the kids need baths when we get home and I need a shower. I'm gross from mowing.

tallb You haven't been around for a few days. Y'all okay? 👋 Hi hi - thanks for checking in. I'm around, my head/eyes have been bothering me and I suspect from increased screentime and phone usage, so trying to stay off my phone a bit. Not much new here, j is driving me nuts, final two weeks of my class so a final paper/presentation due soon. We did have a landscaper come out for an estimate and he seems great, so I'm going to pretend we can do everything he suggested, when I bet we only have the budget to do the grading fix needed out front and none of the pretty stuff. |

I think it worked everyone! I took off the entire seat ring and I’ll spare you the description of the funk that was caked in the screw areas.... I pretty much poured straight bleach and scrubbed w a toothbrush. Either I’ve gone noseblind or its all gone.

The food was amazing. All 3 kids are clean and settled watching a movie.

It was a Thursday miracle. The kids didn't bug me once during my appointment. They watched Clue twice today and wrote punishment sentences from being turds last night.
