Morning.
I’m at work. Hoping to be out in an hour or so. The only other thing I have planned today is to wash/straighten my hair. I’m overdue on that one. 😬

Should be a relaxing girls day. I need it after yesterday. So much damn work came in. About 6-8 extra assignments is normal--we had 30+. 😤
MH is having a guy's day in OR. His friends were all being drama queens leading up to this so who knows how it will go.
Not sure what the girls and I will do but we'll have some fun. They've had a tent set up in the family room for several days and are practically living in it.

Morning! It's pretty cold today so we'll be stuck inside for the most part. We may go for a hike after lunch if the sun is out but we'll see. I was actually hoping to get a couple more miles this morning but even with my toasty mittens, my fingers were starting to hurt. I'm okay at 25 or higher but much below that, and I need to keep it brief.
Chase had the sniffles for a few days but is sounding better, so now it's Colin's turn. Hopefully he's done with it as quickly.

My sister and her fam are coming over today which will be fun!
Also, Chick Fil A by us opens Thurs! I've never had it. BIL got a job as a manager there (they get great benefits and his salary is higher than mine and my sister's, she's a social worker, I'm in the wrong field), so we get to go Monday for free food while they work out the kinks before fully opening. I'm coming for you, waffle fries!

Peach, how are you feeling??? I feel great. My current complaint is my neck from wearing a sports bra 24/7. But without it, they hurt. But I'm counting down until 12:30. Then I'm allowed to shower 😊 |

Morning all.
We’re in a deep freeze here, lame, so it’ll be a day of indoor activities. I sense MH is in a mood, there’s a lot of truck talk around here and I just want to get it over with cause I’m pretty sure he’s reached the end of the internet with research 🥴
Other than that I’ve got to run to Carters to get mitts for next year since there’s a sale right now.
Boring. Life is so boring.

I talked to my mom yesterday and she told me my grandparents got the vaccine yesterday. That was music to my ears. When I was there for New Years, my grandma’s attitude towards covid in general wasn’t great and she was saying she wasn’t going to get it. My aunt made them an appointment to get it and my mom and grandpa told her she doesn’t have a choice. So relieved.
She basically is an anti masker, but just chooses not to go anywhere if she has to wear one. Which, cool. She says she can’t breathe with it on. I didn’t hound her about it as long as she chose to stay home or in the car when they had to go to the store. But I was worried about her because she was kind of getting into a depression before Covid. Now that she stays home all the time and not socializing has us a little worried about her health physically and mentally.
That’s was word vomit. Sorry, I guess I needed to get that out.

I feel worse today then yesterday. The crapy thing about C and I have different days off is I can’t not parent when I’m sick. He is closing tonight so he can’t really take the night off. L is doing his tablet homework and E is watching the Toy Stories. Lunch today will be chicken taquitos with guacamole and cherry tomatoes for the kids. I’m not sure what I will eat.

My coworker just texted me that she will be out all week....again.
She says her daughter came home from xh's with a high fever. Took her to the Dr. and she has strep, but they also tested her for covid as well.
I get that this shit happens, but it's literally every other week for her and I'm the one having to cover her ass at work. It's just frustrating.

[mention]klongoria11 [/mention] is there any limit on how much time you can miss. My job they have restrictions. Yes and no. We did when we were salary, but they switched us to hourly when we went down to half time. And now, since it's covid related and she's supposedly working from home, it doesn't count the same as her just not coming in. I shouldn't complain, at least I'm getting 40 hours this week. |

I finally got a shower after MJ's nap and lunch. I feel so much better! I got all the marks off of me that you can see in regular clothes and all the stuff they sterilize you with. But pretty sure I'll have purple lines on my boobs for months.. stuff won't budge.

Chase and I went for a n hour-long hike in well below freezing temps and somehow DH is the grumpy one! I want to go right to bed after the boys, in part because I am exhausted and in part because I don't want to deal with him if he doesn't relax, but we've been doing little date nights on Saturdays. Things have been good so I don't want to rock the boat but I'm not in the mood!!

Slow sunday over here. Lots of clearing and cleaning. I started to sort out some of the baby boy/boy gear we no longer need. I started with shoes, because I’m an emotional mess and this is the stuff I’m least attached to.
Look at these.... (we’re saving these, they’re good for boys and girls).

Oh and I think baby girl has thrush. I can feel it in one boob and she has a few little white spots in her mouth. She’s nursing fine, so I’m hoping it’ll go away on its own.

Glad your grandparents got the vax lahdeedah. I hope being able to get out a bit more with less worry will help your grandmother. My great-aunt (80s) has had some health issues and has been very careful, is very pro-mask, etc., but seems to be less than convinced on the vaccine. Her daughter has been working on her. Meanwhile my other great aunt and uncle drove from their home on the coast to Orlando to get it b/c they could get an appointment sooner. They are big travelers and 'cruisers' and are ready to get back to it, ha. |

Morning/happy weekend! The weather has been grey and dreary here all week and I'm over it, I swear it is bringing down my mood. B had a basketball game yesterday--I was under the impression there was some parity b/n teams but this team was so good and we got our butts kicked. B had a great in-bound/fast break and dribbled it really nicely...right down the court the wrong way, lol. We went to my parents' last night for brisket; this morning my sister is bringing her kiddos over since BIL is on call. Hopefully the kids will all entertain each other and I can snuggle my niece. She gave me the biggest smile on Friday |

I’ve worn chucks my whole life (even on my wedding day during the reception). We got the first red pair from my sister when we didn’t know if ds was a boy or a girl. Afterwards ds just wanted red ones, the boy just loves red and I must admit I love how they give a pop of colour  . |

Our county announced yesterday that they were opening up new slots for vaccine appointments today at 11 AM on the county website for 2 locations. Guess what website is down? Apparently it went down around 10:30 and hasn't been back up. So much for that idea!
