Morning!
B is off for day 2. I got a really sweet email from one of his teachers this morning of how his day went yesterday, including a ‘first day’ photo with his teachers in the classroom (socially distanced, of course!) Nice to get that little peek.
C has ballet this morning and is super excited.
I have the urge to shop...Sept 1 rolls around and I want alllll the fall things. I really need my mom to get back, she is my shopping partner-in-crime 😂

flamingo out school uses the SeeSaw app, through the day, the teacher will post pictures or some of the work they're doing on it, so it's like constant contact. It's pretty cool! Morning ladies! SSDD here. Just working.

Morning. I just had the most boring social media training. Seriously mid way I had to interrupt and ask if they knew what my non-profit company does... They were acting like we’re some hip big bugs company with loads of budget for pr. And they wanted me to coordinate it, which is technically the right call since that is my job, but I’m swamped already and my leave starts in 5.5 weeks 🤷🏼♀️.
They kids and Dh will be home in 20 minutes or something, so I’m going to put my feet up for a bit.

Hi everyone. Well we are on day 2 and B already threw a massive shit fit about her uniform. This is going to be a loooong year. Drop off line was OK but I was super early. I don’t know if I’m going to have this same stamina come December when its dark in the AM and 40* out! I then went for a jog and now am working.
C has soccer tmrw so I need to go tonight and get him his cleats and shin guards. Nothing like waiting til the last minute!

A is laying deck boards. They'll be done today. Then just railing, steps and gate!! But we'll be able to use it later today. He'll close in the bottom of it next spring after we attach the house deck.

So when their days over lap I watch them. But he works 10a-10p so he doesn't drop off until 8:30 so thats nice. Yes, it comes and goes. She's a super sweet girl and tells her she loves her and gives hugs. But them doesn't want her near her 2 minutes later. I think she's the youngest and only girl in their family, based off Facebook pictures I've seen. So it's just jealousy. But *whispering* everyone is playing quietly right now so I'm being very quiet as to not disturb this moment 😂

Someone in our neighborhood already decorated for Halloween. I'm ok with PSL coming out early, but not your Halloween decor. Please keep that in until at least mid-late Sept.

Morning! Sitting at the tire shop waiting for tires and alignment with a cranky S. Then on to STL for dermatology appt and kidney ultrasound. I *think* this is our last appt till December! Unless something pops up. I’m tired of these trips!
Work is shaping up to be a record breaking weekend for camping for us. Labor Day is always busy...but based on our reservations....it’s going to be worse than usual. Which also mean MH will probably be busy. Because where there are lots of people there are usually drunks doing stupid stuff. Last weekend we had a fight between brothers (one was extremely drunk), the one brother that was sober decided he wasn’t dealing with it and left the drunk brother at camp and drove 5 hours home. So the drunk left behind slept on a picnic table with no tent or sleeping bag or anything. Then the next day had to call a different brother to drive 5 hours to get him.

We are pretty crazy for Halloween here, but I won't decorate until the beginning of October. Even I don't want to stare at Halloween shit that long!

All the kids are home today while I am trying to work.
I am trying not to be a whimp but this is unbearable. Our governor revised our milestones, so we were on track to get to do hybrid or on campus instruction as early as next week, but now it’s two, at least. I feel so trapped.
WAH, whiny Tuesday.

Morning. Big girls are at school and I’m home with V. I had a little incident this morning at preschool drop off. I misjudged the parking spot and scraped another car. The other mom was very understanding, we dropped the kids at their classes and then met back at the cars to swap info. When I got home I got out a rag and was able to wash most of the marks off, there are only a couple spots where it’s still visible (my vehicle is white, hers is black) so I don’t think I actually need to get it fixed. Maybe a little touch up paint, the bumper is plastic so no worries about rusting. Since I already got all of the car washing supplies out I decided to just do a quick once over on the whole van. Now we just hang out until pick up time. nam2013 I’m ready/happy to go back. I am not looking forward to the 10,000 emails I’m going to have to go through/delete. Also, that’s exciting to make it to 3rd tri, I wanna see a bump pic! You’re all welcome re: password change. I promise I didn’t do much.

Hi ladies. Work, work, work. My alarm didn't go off this morning, but luckily it doesn't take me long to get ready.
I'm still living off my high of completely revamping the girls' rooms. A clean house makes me so happy. I feel like Tangina in Poltergeist when she announces "This house is clean." I'm almost done with knitting M's blanket and next I'm going to attempt a poncho for Cass. I found one I love but it was a dead link to the pattern. Grr.
I'm watching Dating Around on Netflix and one of the guys was so nervous and awkward it made me physically uncomfortable watching him. In general watching people on a first blind date is super cringy. But he wasn't nearly as bad as this super creeper who "only dates bisexual women" and identifies as "poly" but basically only wants him to be the one with a bunch of other women and of course the women can't date anyone else. Someone really missed the mark in screening out creepers with that dude.

I am BACK at the tire shop. I left and got on the highway. As I was grumbling to myself that something didn’t feel right...it felt “loose” on the front end, I get a phone call from the shop saying I needed to come back because they think they forgot to tighten down some things on the front end.
