MH couldn’t get SS yesterday so he’s doing that long drive now. The kids are watching TV. I’m sharing a bottle of wine with tonight’s pot roast.

I had my physical today. I need to lose weight (duh).
Naturally I ordered a pizza on the way home, bc of who I am as a person.*
*the kids were promised pizza, it’s a joke.

piratecat,I didn't see the picture but I find it odd that the mailbox mutilator made the effort to fess up, after sometime passed right? And then do a half ass job? Unless I guess they didn't have money to afford a post? but then why come clean?

the kids started school today and it was a shit show. we couldn’t finish the day with my youngest. 5 hours on an ipad is too much. luckily the teachers here are AMAZING and accommodating.

Hello! I had some sort of stomach bug earlier this week where I felt okayish during the day and then awful all night long. Today is the first day I’ve felt really good all day. Im celebrating by eating salad.

Habit burger has fried green beans that are so good. I don't it doesn't sound that great, but they are delicious. So that's what I am thinking about now. Only about 3 hours till dinner time. I am going to need a snack. I think I have some pita chips in my lunch bag for my drive home.

What did you end up doing for school, are they doing local school or their old school? the local schools have a 100% virtual option until the end of the school year so that’s what we opted for. they expect a lot more out of the kids but they’ll learn so much here.

They were so so good. I would order lunch just for the green beans.

Glad you’re feeling better hawkward! It sounds similar to a bug I had in college that was a total PITA

Beer & Food truck burger & tots have been consumed. The last child is out of quarantine and is happily reunited with his bestie. Brownies with andes candies mixed in are in the oven. H just got home and I will drink more beer & steal some of his tots while he eats his dinner. It’s a good night. Tomorrow I rejoin the world, ie, make a huge amazon return to kohls. 😂 This all sounds amazing

i’m so glad to be home. in a house. with a kitchen. today i made waffles, sausage, and scrambled eggs for breakfast, cookies for a snack, southwest chicken salads for lunch, baked a cake for after dinner, then made spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread. now we are eating the cake with a scoop of ice cream and watching netflix. This also all sounds amazing

Does anyone have a recommendation for a journal with prompts for a teen? A lot of them look too juvenile or cheesy.

I’m very impressed with it but I am not a teen parent yet so I don’t know that I have a good gauge of teen stuff.

Two of my photos were chosen to be auctioned for a fundraiser at so excited/proud! Makes the money I spent on my camera feel worth it.

DS1 is much younger than babybean’s SS but he really likes his.
