I've been avoiding having housekeeping come after my high risk lady quit in March. I cannot do this a moment longer with 4 people always at home. I got someone to come in today and give me an estimate and my life will be poorer but better. I'm drinking to being able to enjoy my house again after living through the you can't open boxes for days and having amazon boxes stacked up for weeks. I really hope this is the thing that turns my mood about distance learning around. I already poured a drink for it.

I ruined Ds1’s life because I wouldn’t let him bring the Switch to school for some kind of reward thing. I sent him with a cheap video game tablet thing instead.
Pulled a tick off of Ds2 who had a hiking trip today
Ds3 has been three inches from me all day,
These kids need to go to bed.

I hope your luck turns around piratecat, you’ve had some hard hits. At the very least may your upcoming newborn be a unicorn sleeper. I can only hope.

I’m sorry piratecat that really really sucks. Thanks everyone. This dog is my first baby and having all this happen to her lately is forcing me to confront her mortality and I hate it. I’m sorry, that’s so hard. ❤️

I’m sorry, that’s so hard. ❤️ The fact that pets don't live nearly as long as they should (except birds) is something I continually and conveniently "forget" as I surround myself with them. They’re a gift. Who give us love and teach us lessons. The fact that we will mourn them is part of that gift. We don’t deserve them.

I've long told H that when DD is older/out of the house I want to adopt elderly dogs from the shelters and give them the most amazing last years. I don't think he realizes I'm serious. I have the same plan ❤️

piratecat No, not yet. They know she’s having trouble peeing, but between this and the election, and work, I just didn’t have the bandwidth to effectively handle the dog is dying conversation. H tried to comfort me when I got home from the vet and I basically put him on pause also—I just lack the fortitude to deal with this. Like at all.

Trigger warning loss
Hs cousin had a molar pregnancy 2 years ago which led her to have uterine cancer needing chemotherapy. This woman is a NICU nurse and the most amazing person I know. She is DSs godmom. She desperately wants to be a mother.
I video called her tonight and she answered the phone with a picture of her sonogram from her last appt. She is 14 weeks and HE is healthy based on chromosomal testing.
My black heart allowed me to cry my eyes out with joy.

Oh, PinkFreud! That is the best news! I’m going to keep her in my prayers. Being pregnant with DS2 after a PMP was terrifying waiting for the other shoe to drop the whole time. I hope she has a peaceful and boring pregnancy.

Well, it would appear that I saved this guy. He will probably go back into foster care tomorrow until he’s old enough to get adopted!

One of our neighbors just got home from deployment! Because of covid, he was gone for over a year, two months longer than expected (after already having a covid extension.

DS just told me he hopes he has big boobs one day and asked me if he could try wearing a bra just because he's curious.

To clarify I'm not opposed or anything he he just caught me off guard. He is also currently wearing my three inch thigh high boots and rocking them. He also almost tipped over and said thank goodness I wasn't wearing my regular shoes or I would have fallen.

My giant mess of a sister told me last night that her husband left her. She moved in with him after like a month of dating and then married him a couple months later. I deserve a medal for not telling her I TOLD YOU SO. Although I did have to explain TO A 43 YEAR OLD WOMAN that you can’t possibly fully know a person that quickly. Because she kept on about, this just isn’t the man I knew. Bitch you never knew him! I love her but good goddamn she is dumb. My point of this post is that I need prayers to keep me from letting it slip to my parents who are visiting tomorrow. I am good at keeping secrets but I might dip into the wine and there are no rules with the wine. I blame the pandemic for it all. "cause of the pandemic I can't be expected to carry another's burden" So if it comes out let it roll 🤣

I just sat here and took all my extensions out on my own. Ive had wine and have a lot of nervous energy so I channeled it into that.
I have an appt already tomorrow morning for dye/moving them up so I just saved some time and money but nope. Do not recommend 😬
