My in laws are coming to pick us up at 10, then we’ll drop the kids off at their house and head to the airport. M has already been telling me how much she’s going to miss me, while H keeps asking of grandma is here yet. Lol

Have a great trip tgrimes! We are going to the tile and stone place for the new house, later today. Our permit was finally done through the city this week (2momths later) and they are supposed to start digging the hole next week! My dad and step mom are camping 10 minutes from us, so we will go see them later today. One of our neighbors told H we needed to get together for beers so I guess we are having drinks later as well.

There is an art walk in the neighborhood this morning, so we may stroll around to take a look. Then Cadence and I are going to start an organization project in her play room. Fun stuff. 😬

Morning all!
It’s a beautiful day here and I woke up at 7.30am and was the first one up 😱, I can count on 1 finger how many times this has happened.
After breakfast we’re heading to get some flower pots and some plant stands, I’m working on getting some houseplants around the house. IDK who I am anymore but I can only blame turning 40.
So it’ll be a day putzing around the house and yard, maybe pull out the sprinkler for the kids.

He starts Monday, supposedly. He received all the paperwork to fill out, but not the laptop they said would be sent, so he can start training. Not sure what the status is, but he will find out Monday. He clearly doesn't worry about things like a normal person!

Taking the kids to the farmers market to pick up dinner and then to a farm to see a giant ceramic cow they brought in. They have really good soft serve so I think we’ll pick that up, too. Otherwise just hanging here his weekend. I ordered new rugs and they’re just sitting in the entry way just waiting for a home.

Sounds like some fun plans. Enjoy yourselves ladies!
Nothing on the agenda here. Our friends will probably leave in the afternoon. We'll roast marshmallows tonight at the fire pit. I'm guessing the girls will play on the splash pad again with the neighbor kids.

After picking out stone, we did the most irresponsible thing 2 adults could do in our situation...went to the casino. It was a different Saturday, had a beer, now we are grabbing lunch.

Morning. I visited my sister this morning and then doen the first kid free afternoon in half a year. It was nice to have lunch with my friend and not have to tend to somebody else’s needs. H and the kids met me a forest after and we took a nice walk. We ordered a charcuterie board for dinner, so all in all good day at the nam house.

Hello! Beautiful weekend here. We had tball and soccer this morning. Kids are no longer required to wear masks so C was the only kid on the field with a mask on 😬. The other parents must think we are nuts.
Now big kids and H are doing yard work while I catch up on laundry and cleaning. We are going to grill chicken and caprese stuffed portobello mushrooms later.

Everyone in my house appears immune to my voice today. Aside from having to say everyone’s name multiple times to get their attention, i have been asking what everyone wants to do for dinner since noon. Charlie came the closest to a real answer by telling me “something fancy with things we like AND things we’ve never tried.” I just ordered pizzas and pasta and it will have to suffice. I’m squirreling myself away with a cold drink and the tv after dinner.

C had baseball this morning. We won despite their bad sportsmanship and attempts at cheating, like telling C he was out and when he steps off base stepping on to call him out. Same kid got in the running path and blocked our runner. He’s the coach’s son on that team and the Apple doesn’t fall far at all!
After we went to Target and got a Lego set. He and DH are doing it now while I get a pedicure.

@winelthetime the other team, coaches, and spectators had maybe three masks between them all at little league. Our team was masked the whole time. Our league said last week batters could be mask free but everyone else needed to wear a mask so I don’t know what was going on.
It sounds like RI is following the new cdc guidelines as of Tuesday but then the towns could be different. Either way, I think kids should be masked unless they can be a safe distance away from each other which is impossible in most sports.
I can’t wait until they can get vaccinated and I can breathe again!

Kids had fun. We ate at Earl of Sandwich, the kids got cake pops, with their own money bought a toy each and got to test a new attraction 🕷. They loved it. In the way home they got a Wendy’s frosty. I’m still sore so I’m now resting while E watch’s MMCH and L does his reading homework.

I've determined that any real organization will have to wait until Cadence isn't here. She just wants to play the whole time. I hand her things to put away and she sets up some play scene with them and gets totally absorbed. Focus!

Hey. H had her last soccer game this morning and since then I’ve been painting the front door. I put 4 coats on so it should last. I love it. Dh took the kids to our friends house, because I had to shower and I’m going to meet them there in a bit. I am enjoying the quiet for a minute before I go. flamingo I see that your H made it home safe and sound. Thank you for your service. tgrimes have the best time!
