Today I am on the interview team for a new specialist in our office. The schedule is back to back but we have one hour off at the front so I am going to go for a walk. It’s going to be 73 degrees today!
We got the Little League team roster last night and C has 3 friends on his team. It’s definitely made him more excited about it! We should get the football roster tonight although it looks like the scrimmage Sunday may be rained out.

MJ is cutting teeth and had us up all night long. She is the grouchiest person ever today and I am exhausted.

My mom got me a robot vacuum for mothers day but gave it to me now because it has a 30 day return window and she wasn't sure if I'd like it. I'm not completely convinced yet but MJ hates it. She grabs the remote and turns him off lol.

peachsmama, Cadence hates ours, so much so that it hasn't been on for awhile. I end up using the "real" vac instead. Not that she likes that one, either. She runs and hides. Its weird.

Ours can't handle all the hair (cats, mine, Cadence's), so I'm kind of glad he is off duty for now. Plus, it kept eating LOL shoes.

Glad C has friends on his team wedding. DH is coaching again this year so he pulls strings to get Colin's best friend on the team, plus at this point we know a lot of the families. I am almost embarrassed to admit how much I am looking forward to the season starting!

And with my stick vacuum daily so there's not a ton of hair accumulated. But it gets under places and brushes from the trim and I don't. So that's nice.

Morning.
My friends apparently realized they missed my birthday last night so the texts started rolling in and honestly, it really rubbed me the wrong way. Apparently my best friend had told them to just drop it and they didn't listen, so she had to play interference for me. But then she and I had a nice catch-up, so despite the day starting off badly, I am actually feeling a bit better.
Then I had my weekly call with my new manager and he suggested that we all really need to take some time off and take care of ourselves. It was so out of character, I didn't know how to respond. So yeah, my day has taken an unexpected turn for sure.

NGL, I'd choose the robo vac over any of my family members. One happily helps out around the house, the others make messes. 🤖

M has been reading Judy Moody books to me at night before bed. Last night she was reading and it was talking about a doctor doll.
M: The doctor doll can operate....and listen. Ice is back with my brand new invention. Something, grabs a hold of me tightly. Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly.
I busted out laughing. I explained that the word was operate, not collaborate. Apparently, she heard me & my sister singing Ice Ice Baby in the car while she was in town and now it is her mission to learn all the lyrics by the summer.

MH burned his wrist over a week ago. He wouldn't stop fiddling with the grate on the fire pit and got a big burn on his wrist. It's been healing well and the size of the injury has clearly decreased. There are no signs of infection. Of course the wrist is a horrible location because every time he moves his hand a little he feels it. He wants to go to urgent care. Men are such frigging babies. I had surgery a week ago but you don't hear me pissing and moaning every day. I don't have a clue what he thinks they would do...especially over a week later. Like, this is clearly not URGENT as indicated by the title of urgent care. Burns hurt. Duh. Don't fuck with hot metal grates repeatedly. I was talking about it to a mom at TKD last night and she was saying how these poor men haven't had colds this season (due to social distancing) to whine about so they have to have something. It's so true.

Lol tgrimes. I was confused for a minute.. wondering why that was in a Judy moody book. I love our Robo vac. Except L is obsessed and follows it around everywhere and turns it off and on all the time. We’re our second, and this one isn’t as great about not getting stuck. It always gets stuck at the edge of the couch since I put bumpers on it that don’t allow it to go under, but better than getting stuck under the couch where i can’t reach it. #fwp

I took the boys to open gym this morning. We had the place to ourselves with my girl friend and her 2 boys so they burned off a lot of energy riding bikes and running around.
Now I’m trying to convince H to nap and then I’ll go work out if I can talk myself into it. I’m laying on my bed and we got the new mattress topper and it’s so comfy, I just want to lay here all day.

Hi.
I’m at work today. I forgot breakfast and we ordered lunch to celebrate the birthdays of the month and the food still isn’t here even though we placed it at 10am. I’m starving and need energy😩. Probably leaving in an hour anyway so it better be here by then.

Thats amazing tgrimes! Evie loves all music we like...which isn't necessarily good. H is a big Five Finger Death Punch fan, so she is too. She knows most of the words to Wash it all Away. I had shared a video on FB of a teacher using Korn's Coming Undone chorus to teach the ABC's, so of course Evie wanted to hear the real song, which she was singing along to after hearing it a few times. One night we were driving home from somewhere and Gangstas Paradise from Coolio was on, H and I were rapping it, so of course, she now knows all the words. I'm not sure how we are doing at this parenting thing. I do balance it out with a healthy dose of Kidz Bop.

I love it when the girls sing pop songs or 90s songs from my youth. The love some of the worst like Stacey's Mom. I was jamming to Wasn't Me by Shaggy and had to turn it down, realizing it wasn't exactly appropriate. Whoops. When I was ~7 I was belting out Clapton's Cocaine and I still became a semi-functional member of society.
Coolio would be dismayed to learn that I don't know every word to Gangsta's Paradise but I do know every word to Amish Paradise.
I also get a kick out of them playing Dance Dance 2020 or whatever it's called on the Switch and seeing them shake it.

@whipbout kids listen to a lot of our music too, mostly singer singer writer/country stuff, I really can’t stand most kids music 🙈. It often leads to hilarious situations because the kids don’t speak English and sing everything phonetically 😂.

I remember DD used to sing “got a long list of ex lovers, they’ll tell you I’m insane.” I don’t think they pay much attention to what the words mean. I did have to explain to her that All About That Base wasn’t a good song for her gymnastics floor routine in 3rd grade because as a 45 pound 8 year old, she wasn’t bringing booty back.
I’m feeling 100% better today. T came out of school and told me the principal gave them an important letter they had to give their parents right away and my heart sunk, 4 classes are already quarantined at his school. Luckily, the letter was just about a referendum that is going to be voted on next month.

lfig Any news about the scan yet? I haven’t heard from the dr yet. But the results just posted on the portal. Signs of mild cirrhosis of the liver, colitis and/or diverticulitis, and a 1.5 cm mass that is not a cyst. They recommended further imaging of it.

I did that when I was pregnant and we got Sierra’s diagnosis of hydrocephalus. I’ve learned over the years that, although I like to google and arm myself with all the knowledge I can, it’s best to wait to hear what’s really happening from the dr.
