Still playing around w drop off and trying to figure out what’s going to work best so I dropped off both kids this AM. Wow, C’s drop off was a breeze- Park, walk right up, confirm he’s had no symptoms or temperature and BOOM, all done in under 3min.
I also stopped at sbux for my first SCM of the season. Ahhhh, heaven 🧡 - so I may be a little more chipper than usual this morning.

MH is back to work today. I really liked having him home. Otherwise it’s the same old, except it’s pouring here so no outside time. I may bring the scooters down to the basement and give the kids time to scoot. There are two boxes of my mom’s wedding china and crystal that I’d like to go through.

Morning! I'm off work. MH's aunt passed away so we have the viewing today. Tomorrow I'm off to watch the kids while he goes to the funeral. Curious how the whole thing will be with COVID.

Morning.
I’m at work and today is busy. After not being to my second job in a month, I got a text asking me to work today. They have two people out with COVID. 😬 I offered to help them out tomorrow morning. Waiting on them to answer.
MH is taking MIL back today. They are meeting his dad halfway this afternoon. I’m kind of glad to have my house back. She wasn’t a bad houseguest, just nice to have my space back.

So they gave the receptionist her notice yesterday, but no word yet on if they want me to switch to the afternoon shift. I would be fine with the afternoon shift, since most of Cadence's school is in the morning, but who knows what they will decide or when. They have found a new location to move to, but haven't signed the lease yet and they think the move would be Oct. 1st at the earliest.

Morning!
Both kids are at school, I got a paint sample to try in the kids’ bath, ordered the new light fixtures for in there, and got cleaned up. Now I’m sneaking in a pedicure before preschool pick-up.
The schools in our county have early release on Wednesdays (an hour early) to give the teachers planning time (this is normal, not covid-related). It had completely slipped my mind and thankfully the principal sent out a reminder this morning 😅
We’re going to my sister’s for dinner tonight, looking forward to not cooking!

Morning. Dd had her first ballet class this morning and she was on cloud nine, it was beyond adorable. Since it was her first time I was allowed to watch for 5 minutes from behind the glass, amazing.
I had a meeting with dd’s teacher today with the two other class moms, she is beyond sweet. We sat outside, the kids played their hearts out in the playground and it was lovely to talk to a teacher again.
Dh has to work tonight (zoom pt-conference). I’m having braxton hicks and I’m feeling a little light headed, so I really need to calm down a bit after the kids go to bed.

nam2013 glad she enjoyed her class and that you got a peek! All of the studios here (that I know of, anyway) have closed off waiting/viewing areas. I’m dying of curiosity!

Thanks, everyone. I feel awful for MH's cousin. She's so sweet and is pregnant with her first baby. She was so close to her mom so my heart breaks for her.

H woke me up at 2 and then 5:30. The second time he said he needed to pee, which he did, and then wouldn't go back to sleep. Both kids had dentist appts this morning. M did great but H was a handful. I ended up having to lay on top of him and hold down his arms so the dentist could look in his mouth. He wouldn't even let them clean his teeth. Super fun.
Now I'm at work...placing my total wine order so I can pick it up on my way home.

Hi ladies. I'm trying to look up AirBnB type places to stay in my home town so I can go to my brother's wedding later this month. I have a work obligation I can't get out of, but it's virtual so I think I can still make it happen. I'm having serious first world problems though because my computer is currently doing this thing in which IE is the only browser that works but it barely functions and it's hard to search these places. I'll probably have to wait until I get home to book. A couple places would also make nice venues so I'll let my brother know about that possibility.

tgrimes sorry about the dentist! If it makes you feel better our dentist said he thinks 3 is the worst in terms of kids freaking out —2’s are more submissive and by 4 you can reason with them a bit. Hopefully next time H will be more comfortable.

Last night the girls chose Descendants 3 for a movie. I was rocked by a bomb drop in the plot and thought "this is my life--watching villains have dance-offs and then being riveted by the drama and intrigue of a Disney melodrama."

Hi hi. I’m just sitting here with ice on my back. I did something to it, and my low back and legs have been tingling since yesterday.
My sister and i went on a walk this morning and let the kids play at the park for a while. Now L is napping and then it will be time to pick N up. They’ve been asking to go to the farmers market, so we’ll stop there on the way home.

Hey. I feel like I have no time in the mornings to get on my phone. I got H off to school, then I nurse the baby, get S and myself ready for preschool drop off, do preschool drop off, run errands or whatever and then back for pick up. Today V and I went for a long walk around our neighborhood between drop off/pick up. I bet my pelvis is going to be sore tonight. After I picked S up we met friends at a park to eat lunch and play. Now it’s just hanging out till the end of the day. I’m making enchiladas for supper tonight, I was going to do it last night but ran out of time. So I am going to prep now while V is napping. wineallthetime I’m sorry for your family’s loss.

slenle oh no! Sounds a little like pinched nerve, I have those sometimes. For me when it’s my back, heat/painkiller combo work better than cold. And walking it out... sounds counterintuitive, but it does work most times. Hope it feels better soon.

I was just there on Friday and it didn’t help too much. I think it’s from carrying this chubby baby around all day.

We had so many patients, we didn’t take a full lunch. I ate a banana at breakfast and half a box of chick fil a fries. They were mostly soggy so eww. I’ll probably pick up takeout. I’m not in the mindset to cook.

One of H’s upper front teeth fell out finally. It’s been loose and super wiggly for a few weeks. It left behind a red bump that she says hurts to touch. I texted my friend, who’s dad is our dentist, and the response is that we need to see how it is in the morning and if it’s still bothering her after school I can bring her in for them to look at it.

That's weird trtlcrzy, I hope it's better in the morning. Nice having a close connection to the dentist, though!
