Morning. It’s a wet and rainy weekend here, so I’ll putz around the house and maybe have a movie afternoon with the kids. My arm is hurting a little but I slept good, even though I was up going to the washroom a lot since jewels screamed HYDRATE!, I drank so much water all day/evening, so thanks for the tip 👍🏻

Morning.
I worked this morning and counting down the minutes until I can leave. More purging and packing today. My dad popped up on us yesterday afternoon, but he’s leaving this afternoon. We have a couple people coming by to hopefully buy some furniture we are not taking with us and M has a game at noon. Busy day, but the weather is good so bring it on.
Hope your weekend is off to a great start and enjoy!

Glad the hydration helped vino!! I’m sitting waiting for a rapid covid test. I am 99.999 % sure I am fine but I have the tiniest cold and I’m supposed to take S to baseball later and the see my parents and nephew for a BBQ this evening so I just want to be sure. So now I’m just in the chair waiting for the brain tickle.

Yay for the weekend! How is Cass inthekitty? Hopefully you are continuing to see improvement! Its beautiful here today. I just got back from a 3.4 mile walk. I paid all our bills this morning and so far, no need to get into savings. Im hoping to celebrate that by doing some day drinking later since its so nice. We will celebrate with MIL tomorrow, shes ordering yummy BBQ for lunch. My mom and I will get lunch one day next week. Pretty low key weekend here. Oh, and no tears for the shot last night!

Cass is doing pretty good. She's able to move slowly and the pain hasn't been bad at all. I might take her to Farmer's market and the bakery later but I'll bring the stroller because I don't think she could handle that much walking. I'm so grateful she's doing better. This week has been hell.

Hello, so glad to see lots of good news here today. I had a fun night out last night. DH took T to soccer this morning, just in time because now it’s pouring. I ran a few miles, gave the dog a bath, cleaned the bathroom, cleaned the kitchen, and now I’m going to wash sheets forever since I didn’t do that the whole time I had no dryer. DS has 2 games tonight so I will take him to 1 and DH will go to the later one. Have to get a gift for my mom at some point.

I just had drinks with my aunt & uncle, indoors. They are vaccinated (have been for some time), and we kept our distance, but it still feels so weird. Like I’m doing something illegal. It was nice, we used to go there for drinks every six weeks or so, this was the first time we were there for almost a year!
The kids are in bed now, baby girl had a weird sleep pattern today (Aka non existent) and just feel asleep after nursing. Looking forward to a night of vegging on the couch.

I just spent an insane amount of time cleaning up dog poop in the car because people don’t pick up after there pets after they let them go to the bathroom near the baseball field. We also lost the game so rough start. Cs new dresser is being delivered later though so that’s exciting. We will probably do movie night tonight and tomorrow we have football. My brother and I are going to visit my mom tomorrow and pick up lunch. She ate some chicken last night so that’s good. C made me a couple of cute planting pots for Mother’s Day and wrote a really cute card. I took a play from tgrimes book and bought myself an Apple Watch. It’s going to be warm and sunny tomorrow so I’m looking forward to it. Today and cold and cloudy. If I don’t check in, Happy Mother’s Day!

Why drink from the other water bottle when you can all share one and shove the other's face out of the way? ![](https://i.ibb.co/Qd22PQ8/20210506-091220.jpg)

Hi everyone! We had tball earlier which was fun because two of my sisters came so L was so excited.
I'm PISSED because A has the sweetest spiral curls that I trim. Well yesterday MIL decided to brush his dry hair down and cut straight across his forehead (she did not have permission to cut his hair) and I'm not sure those spiral curls will come back.

I'm about to get her to fall asleep and cut her hair off. I approve. Hoping it comes back, maybe try using a lot of conditioner and squeezing hair out of the tub and see if it will form again, and then trim at a proper curl spot. (Pretty sure that doesn't make sense to anyone but in my head.. I use curly girl method to wash my hair, so kind of referencing that).

That’s exactly what I have been wanting, but I didn’t want to tell mh about it yet because we have been spending a lot lately. I’ll probably wait until my birthday in the fall because the next couple of months will be quite expensive with moving, vacation, etc. Which series did you get? When I looked at them I wasn’t sure if I had to pick.

What a long day. We spent so much time outside in the garage purging and we are still not completely done. 😩 Send help please...
I had to stop because I need a break mentally and physically. The sun was brutal at the game earlier and we’ve been nonstop.
My dining table and the crib is sold. The crib makes me so sad even though I am done with babies. 😔 My babies are big kids.

lahdeedah I still have a hard time being done with babies. In an ideal world we would have had one more. Ugh, garage stuff is the worst. Heavy, bulky, and so many things you only need a few times a year, but you do need them so you can't chuck them. Godspeed.

Good morning and happy Mother’s Day friends! I’m working this weekend so nothing very exciting to report here. I’m hoping for a nap when I get home this afternoon and then the ILs are coming over for supper.

Happy Mother’s Day friends! I hope you all have an amazing day doing exactly what you want.
It’s been a trying 14 months and just when we couldn’t think we could take anymore Mom’s stepped up; keeping our families safe, became teachers for our kids, forced to balance the instant switch of WFH and home life and so much more.
There were times where I thought it would sink me and all I had to do was come here for support and commiseration. Love you all ❤️
