At first, I was like "oh nextdoor people overreacting..." and then I watched multiple ring videos from multiple backyards. Fully nude, no shoes, sometimes draped in a bath towel...just strolling through yards and staring in fences. Over reacting? To what part lmao “Oh I’m sure he has pants on while he prowls around peoples property and jerks it... omg, naked with a towel?!” Bruce, has true crime taught you nothing about how these people escalate?

Good morning! I didn't sleep particularly well last night, I just kept waking up because I wasn't comfortable. So I guess that's the stage I am at now. But, I got so much done in the house yesterday, that I felt really good going into the week. I think it helps that DD1 is starting in person school today and won't be home to make a big mess, lol. I am excited for her! Poor H has to do drop off and pickup most days, so he had to block off his work calendar at odd times. But he is making it work.
Also, H took my car yesterday to get detailed, including a wax, AND he filled it up with gas. So, I'm very heart eyes for him today. That's my love language. Doing shit for me that I don't want to do.

Oh, it was just my assumption that the people were calling him a creeper and demanding police intervention before I read the nature of their complaints. Once I read the posts and replies, I'm very much "find this guy and keep him somewhere far away from others."

I stopped at Starbucks on my way home from drop-off and ordered/paid, then their cold brew thingamajig stopped working. This was after I found a bottle of soured milk in the bag B takes to school, and it had leaked all over his things. His room smells awful right now and this morning sucks. nothing is worse than spoiled dairy. my sympathies.

My 3yo is going to be the death of me. She makes every situation difficult. It’s like anytime something is going moderately well, she thinks, “What ridiculous demand can I come up with to make this worse?”
Just venting. The last week has been a nightmare.

I was cleaning the kitchen and DD2 came to me asking me to snuggle her on the couch and tickle her back. Twist my arm why don’t you. 🤣🤣🤣

Add me in to the bad sleep group. My wrist brace for carpal tunnel has velcro closures and my hair got caught in one of them. I was pretty confused when it woke me up at 2am. And my cat wouldn't leave me alone. I think I will drink two cups of coffee today.

DS very sweetly asked for donuts this morning, so we got ready early and ate Krispy Kreme in the car before school. I'm such a sucker.
Now I need real food, though, before my blood sugar laughs in my face and drops off.

The twins found a sock puppet pattern in the back of one of their books, and they’ve been begging to make them. Big kids went back to school today, so I’m going to be buried in socks, googly eyes, and hot glue. The girls are so excited!

3rd out of 4 days of campground openings this morning. Campsites have never been so hard to get ever, but since covid has us locked in our province, campsites have become so cutthroat.
I have been so lucky honestly. DH and I have been getting up and trying to login at 7am every opening. The last one I got ticket 2200 adn DH was in the 35,000s in line.
I'm just waiting on the site to allow me to book the last spot and then we have a solid summer booked! very excited.

Nextdoor posts alerted me to the fact that a naked man had been prowling yards and jerking himself off during many nights over the last few weeks so that's lovely. Oh Jesus! I hope they catch him soon. That’s unsettling.

I did throw that bag away, just in case anyone was curious. I really need to find a clear backpack since that's the only kind his school is allowing at the moment. He took his stuff in a plastic grocery bag today 🤦♀️

I'm super cranky and just feeling sad in general today, so I have a Bob Ross video playing in the background on my laptop. I think it's helping me be calm.

The one I am trying to get right now is a provincial back up plan site lol1 so it won't be terrible if it doesn't go through. Thursday we will be trying for a national park here and then we'll be done! I haven't been to Yoho but everything in that area is beautiful, I hope you get in!

I wanted to throw my laptop out the window by the end, it took 1.5 hours to get a site. Now I’m waiting for the 3 month window to open for August bookings.

Like they said opening day last year for 1 park has 2000 bookings and this year it had 12000. I got the sites in my cart but it took 3 and a half hours to get it to accept payment so it was nervewracking!

We need to buy a second car. We had gone down to one last summer since we weren't driving anywhere, but now it's time to get a car for H.
I love a research project, but car choosing and buying is some next level overwhelm for me.

I don't know much about cars outside of the ones we have researched, but I would participate in a thread if you started one!

DS2 is at physical therapy and he’s doing some free weight work. Few things are funnier than watching a 6 yo pump some iron.

We went up to Maine for the day on Sunday. It felt so good to just get in the car and go somewhere a couple hours away. We were up in Portland and spent time outside since the afternoon turned out so nice.
Today I'm going shopping for a new washer because now mine just won't do anything. I've picked out what I want after looking online for a couple hours last night.

I told myself I would start work as soon as I finish my coffee. Naturally I am still nursing the same cup two hours later. 😂 all three kids are at school and the silence is nice.

We hired our contractor neighbor to remodel the kids bathroom. He was supposed to start today but we haven't heard from him. I can see his house from my office and I just keep glaring at his truck in his driveway and his open garage door.
