Hi all! I dropped S off for his first day of virtual school. It's a weird feeling. But I'm hoping he does well and likes it. He was really nervous.

Morning.
The weekends go by to fast. We putzed around the house organizing random things and went to a few stores to browse, nothing exciting at all.
We did have the kitchen company come out and got the quote for the kitchen/main bath reface and it was lower than what we had expected so we added in the downstairs bathroom vanity. With this decision the early 2000's oak cabinets will be GONE from this house, woo hoo!

Morning!
Both kids are off to school, I stopped for groceries on my way back from preschool drop-off, and now I’m having some cereal before heading out for a couple errands. All these places opening at 11 is really cramping my style 😝

Morning. I had three whole kid free hours 🥳. I sat on the couch and watched Netflix 😂😂😂. Three loads of laundry, dishes and cleaning were actually in the agenda, but I figured I could do that with kids around, watching Netflix with kids around? No so much . Dh is baking pancakes/crepes for dinner .

Just school for the girls. Maybe we'll do some baking. The air quality is worse today and potentially won't be safe to go outside all week.

I'm at the office getting stuff ready for court tomorrow while my MIL is home with M for virtual learning. Hopefully they don't have any problems.

My mom and I went up north to my grandparents cottage for the weekend. It was cold, rainy and perfect. Lots of games, naps, wine. Back to the reality of virtual school while dealing with a 2 and 4 year old in the mix.

Morning. After I dropped S at school I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled. My gum next to my tongue on the bottom right are very inflamed and sore so he also did an antibacterial mouthwash on that. Now I’m having with V at home until we have to pick S up. Woohoo for cheaper quotes than you were expecting vino!

Guess whose wife doesn't actually want to volunteer to answer phones here, so I'm having to cover those shifts anyway. So dumb. They should have just let me cover in the first place.

Just work for me today. A safe rating is below 50. We're at 220 and my mom is at 440. 😯😯 I can't imagine it being so much worse. Just a few minutes outside to walk into a building and my throat is burning. I can taste smoke. My mom has a household of daycare kids she can't let outdoors.

Yesterday I was in a funk and just wanted some time alone to myself. This would have been wonderful.

With all these changes with MH going back to work, B in school and we continuing to work from home I think that J has struggled the most. It wont be full time since I'll still be at home so it'd be about 9-2.30/3 a few times a week, but I have the info I need to send her back to daycare and have a draft email ready but WHYYYYYYYY cant I press send.
I hate this so much. Damn COVID.

vino Yay for the lower quotes! I’m sorry about J. Is she struggling with not being in school or just everyone else being occupied now? I know it’s hard on us as parents, too. Sending a little will power your way.

Sending a little will power your way. She is just struggling with being 'bored' then this morning she told me she was sad and wanted to go play with her friends. So obvi this is breaking my heart. I think that we were in a good routine, then MH came home and spent 5 full weeks with them doing everything fun. Now that its changed again with everyone being busy but her she is noticing. I do know that at some point I am sure that I will be forced back to work in the office and it will be a massive change to have her back full time, so if she goes back now it will be a nice easy transition. She can still sleep in, have breakfast at home and then go play for a bit then i can get her earlier than pre-covid life. The daycare hasnt had any issues and I know they are doing a good job, but the health part of it scares me when we've all been home and healthy for 6 months. ...sorry for the brain dump :/

vino I really get the feeling. I had the ‘at home I can keep them safe’ feeling when sending the kids back to school. And with every other decision for that matter... it sucks big time.

Update on pantygate: it doesn't seem to matter which panties she wears. She prefers the seamless though. Now that school has started her grabbing has declined tremendously. Idk know why, but it has, so I'm happy. She's still toe-walking though and that has gone up quite a bit. I rarely see her on her flat feet. 🤯

I do think you’re right on the transition now thinking. Brain dump away... that’s what we are here for.
