Morning all. The kids had palm easter at school today and were so giddy and happy this morning, so cute 🥰. I’m watching Nashville and I’m secretly so jealous of that scarlet girl, I want go look like her, floaty dresses, gorgeous hair... and also I miss music.
Dh has been my rock these lasts months, and I want to do something sweet for him, but I’m at a loss. I’m getting him a new leather wallet for our anniversary since 9 years is leather and I’m contemplating getting a chef who’s from Boston originally to make us dinner. Thoughts?
Eta I want something besides those two things.

Last night the pretty teen at the drive thru exclaimed that she loved my hair and asked what I use. Uhh, Herbal Essence. But girlfriend you forever have a place in my heart. 💖

Both kids were up at 5:30. That’s what time I usually get up for work but today I was supposed to be able to sleep till 6:30. They’re lucky they’re cute.

I joined Instagram. I know, I know. I blame SweetPotato for sending me a link to someone who does filler. I think I really need it for these ginormous bags under my eyes. Now someone explain to me how to use it like I’m 80.

But girlfriend you forever have a place in my heart. 💖 My dentist did that once. I must say at the time my hair WAS amazing, jet black, super long. She asked and I was all Suave baby, suave. LOL She didn't believe me.

tgrimes - I follow all celebrities and funny accounts (well not really celebrities, but like real housewives, snooki, etc). I rarely post but when I do, it's just pics. I find the more you use it the more ads come up that are very targeted so I buy a lot of stuff I find on there. Connect with some friends who have similar interests and then peruse their "follow" list to see what's interesting. Also, connect with all of us

Random question for those of you that have been super locked down this year. We have been as well, only seeing 2 families who we know their exposure.
My nephew and his fiance want to fly in to visit us. They are both fully vaccinated (he's in his hospital rotation at medical school so he got it early), and by the time they got here, we would be too. But they are 24, living in a party city, probably going out with their friends a ton. They are also flying in, so airport/airplane, etc.
They want to stay with us for the weekend. So all 4 adults would be vaccinated but obviously not the kids. MH and I have different opinions about if we are comfortable with it and I am interested in your opinions.

jewels If they are vaccinated, I would be fine with it. My sister and her family just came down. I was only okay with it because they all had covid in December.

Now someone explain to me how to use it like I’m 80. You follow me. That's all you need to know. Done. A few people have popped up for me to follow, so as I see it, I'm requesting to follow. But I don't know how to search for people. I think my username on there is my firstnamelastname.

I would worry about them carrying it and giving it to my kids that could either get sick or pass it around. Also, selfishly, I don’t want to have to quarantine C if he got it. It would be horrible.

jewels, I think I would be ok with it as long as my kids didn't have high risk factors since most don't have a lot of complications even if they get it. I go back and forth on what I'm comfortable with. But all adults being vaccinated would make me feel mostly safe.

Morning.
Happy Friday everyone! B has a half day today then he's off until after Easter Monday for spring break and Easter. MH is off as well, so we'll see how that goes.
Warning, vent ahead. MH is being a lot lately, he gets like this before any exercise and it slowly kills my soul; the pacing, the grumpiness, the narrow mindedness with home shit, ugh it's a lot to handle. This is his 'normal' and I know that it happens, but this part of the cycle is hard and it happens every.single.time. /vent over.

That's frustrating vino. I think a lot of men have shitty coping mechanisms and get go in self-centered mode and are sometimes oblivious to how their behavior impacts others. I hope he gets through this phase quickly.

I hope he gets through this phase quickly. 100% this. I feel like whenever MH has a ton on his mind with work, it's like he retreats into himself and ignores everyone/everything around him. It's super annoying.

So, I have been a mix about the situation.
First reaction: hmmm. We haven't seen anyone really... don't break my happy bubble! Second reaction: It's fine! That's why we got the vaccine, right?? so we can go back to seeing people? Talk to MH: His reaction: Absolutely not! They are young and who knows what they're doing!! Why risk it!! Numbers rising!! Big city!! Airplane!! AHHHH!! My new reaction: I think it's fine? But I get where he's coming from? But how is this different than the other risks we are comfortable taking (ie vacation w/ 2 other families tomorrow, possibly visiting his dad who we haven't seen since December '19. Him: But they are young!!!

Watching more Ginny and Georgia. I think that just like how shows have warnings about sex, violence, nudity, and language, they should have warnings about uncomfortable secondhand embarrassment from weird public performance displays. Watching people sing or perform to others is so cringy. Her nerdy boyfriend makes me uncomfortable.

jewels, I totally get it because I see both sides of it. It's hard to find that balance and what you're comfortable with.
