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! Pics! Didn’t you paint the front door a few years back? I could be thinking of someone else.

I need to take a better pic tomorrow when it’s in the shade. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210516/f77f91319045533b0c11193057488313.jpg) This is stage 2 of my porch makeover. You can see the blue ceiling in this pic too.

@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! I'm the same. We just started following CDC guidelines here but I'm just not there. Clark wasn't bothered wearing a mask, luckily. At tball L's whole team was masked and the other was 50/50. I also keep thinking about low numbers last year and people relaxed and the numbers skyrocketed again. Obviously COVID will be around forever but can we just take baby steps!? No masks in grocery stores!? Ok, I'll stop. I know this was a topic a couple days ago too.

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! This was us last weekend, but we weren’t trying to organize we were trying to let all the toys go. The kids kept pulling stuff out of the give away boxes and playing with them. 🤦🏽♀️

Either they get a dime for each toy they put in or they get the money if their toy sells or something. I hate to pay them for toys they should be happy to donate, but also...I'm having a garage sale to make money, so?

wineallthetime I’ve been selling stuff on my local Facebook pages and I’ve told S if he helps me clean it and take pics and stuff that I’ll split the money with him. He’s made about $15 so far. And I don’t mind cuz at least the stuff is about of my house.

Sounds like everyone is having a good weekend! We had a nice day, I mailed some baby clothes out this morning and then my dad/sm met us at J's baseball game. First time we have seen them since xmas I think and first hugs in 15 months! Our little league is all masked and kids were today..thank goodness.
My final paper was graded and I got the highest score in the class, so I'm relieved and shocked, since I do not view myself as a great writer. Waiting for my presentation grade, but def a relief.
J wants to go downtown tomorrow, so we may go out for pancakes and eat outside tomorrow and go to the farmers market, which would be a big outing for us.

+1 to giving the kids money for their stuff I sell. Generally it isnt a lot $10-$40 and I just split it between them. They’re both savers and dont ask to be taken to TRU or the bookstore the MINUTE the get money, if they did it’d be a different story.

Right now he asked to get back his old chore chart he hasn’t used in years so he could earn some Pokémon expansion pack for his switch. So I added some new things for him and he’s happily working towards the price of the pack. I look at it as math and behavior rolled up on one

I feel like every time I watch it there is something I missed that’s hilarious. I never not laugh out loud watching it.

Today is state finals for DD. She’s super excited—for the car ride with her friend. Her friend’s dad decided not to come but I’m going to pick up her coach since he doesn’t drive. The host gym is offering professional photos of the girls during floor. That used to make DD nervous so I didn’t sign her up. 9:30 last night she asked if I signed her up because she wanted them. I went looking for the email from her gym but it said to see the attachment and there was no attachment but there was a phone number so I was the jerk texting some poor booster club mom at 9:30 last night but she is signed up and I’m happy to get the photos since I can’t go in. It’s $30 to watch a livestream.... tgrimes hope you are having a great trip!

vino it is the best movie. My best guy friend in high school introduced it to me, which in hindsight is a bit awkward, since it maybe wasn't platonic for both of us😂. Such a great movie though, I need to rewatch soon.

I will have to try this next time.

Congrats tallb! Have fun tgrimes! Can't wait to see the pics! We went to the lake yesterday afternoon and hung out for a few hours. It was nice. The neighbor H said wanted to have beers, wasn't going to be home until 10, so that didn't happen. Today is a rainy day so I'll get the house cleaned up and crap like that.

Morning. I’m bored but also not motivated to clean the mess that is my house. We put the hammock out in the garden and the kids are delirious with happiness. I hung it quite low, so if they tumble out it won’t matter.
Cooking a Thai curry (with a paste, I’m not that good) that I have been postponing for three days now. Dd loves it, and I normally do too, but I’m just not feeling it 😂.
I got my new solly wrap in, it was a big splurge for me, but I love it so much, the fabric is so delicate and pretty. Now I just need to wait to use it until my birthday in two weeks.

Cadence keeps telling me what time it is. I want to be impressed, but it's a digital clock. So she's literally just reading numbers. I need to hang a regular clock so she can try that way.

Hey! I came home from work this morning early because I’m not feeling well. Walked in the door to a huge mess. The washer got off balance and the giant bottle of color safe bleach fell off the top and busted. It was everywhere! And that shit was thick and kinda hard to clean up. Yesterday I got to meet up with Sunny41 and her lovely family. They came to the area for a weekend getaway and we met up at the Park I work at for a bit. Unfortunately we didn’t get to visit long because I had to leave early to go to a wedding.
