How was your weekend? What's on your agenda for this week? Has summer weather arrived in your area yet? Are you drinking or eating anything delicious this morning?

Two training meetings today 4 hours of talking...
One of our system guys is on leave due to a death in the family. And I’m having problems with getting the forms guy to answer my questions.
Apple pie for breakfast.
I need to get through training slides for updates, do laundry, and clean my room.

We are dealing with a lot of rain and storms. I have my fingers crossed that we will get to have our family photos done next weekend, but we have already had to reschedule twice due to weather.
My mom’s in town this week... I’m also working on potty training with DS2. He seems to have the motivation but we haven’t given the issue enough attention or practice. So we’ll see how it goes.

charlotte we also have rain and storms for the actual whole entire foreseeable future. Ugh! I’m trying to give P a pool party for her bday but the weather will mot cooperate! Had another huge blowout with the spouse last night. I’m so tired of this. Why can’t we get along these days? Drinking coffee at my desk. My huge audit this week got canceled so hell to the yes. PTL.

It's the last week of lacrosse and last week of swimming lessons next week. This is E and A's last week of preschool. Graduation is on Monday. Can't believe they'll be in Kindergarten next year and R in 1st grade. It's hard thinking back to all the times I didn't think we'd even make it through the day and now, I'll have so M-F 9am-3pm to myself come September. I guess I should get a little more serious about job hunting, but I just don't even know what I want to do. But for now, I guess we'll enjoy a long summer vacation of no obligations.
The weather here is gorgeous this week. Might hit 80 a few days, so I think I'll bust out the blow up pool. Other than that, just normal.

I drank a lot of coffee this morning. My older dog keeps waking me up in the middle of the night and it's becoming A Thing that I'm not sure how to handle. She is noisy AF.
I had a lot of outdoor projects I wanted to get done over the weekend but only got some stuff planted in the garden. And to be honest I just supervised MH, never touched any dirt myself. I need to power wash tomorrow.

Our weekend was packed with soccer. And we FINALLY booked plane tickets to visit family in June.
Coffee and avocado toast this morning.
I have a few things to get done and need to look into what type of professional (career coach?) to talk to so I can figure out what type of analyst role my past experience can translate to.

My husband made a last minute decision that we should go to the beach this morning and I agreed but man I hate getting stuff organized on the fly like that. We're in the car, I'm drinking a Starbucks mocha, and C is asleep in her car seat.
We're going to get lots of rain this week, too, so I guess it's a good idea to take advantage of the nice weather today.

Our weekend was good, both MH and I are officially vaccinated! Neither of us had side effects, but my husband had a pretty sore arm last night. Feels good to have gotten it done.
ETA: vaccinated with the first dose, I should say. But it looks like our province is going to open up booking for second doses by the end of this month 🎉

Even though I had nothing scheduled today until swimming lessons at 5, I managed to pull out of the garage before remembering to grab dry clothes & a towel for J, then pulled out of the neighborhood before remembering I had put my wallet on my front windshield so I wouldn't forget it, and then realized when I pulled into the parking lot that the large water cup I had brought for all 3 of us to share if needed, had literally one sip of water and a bunch of ice in it.
Then during the 40 minute swim lesson, M had to pee 3 (!) times and J had to pee once, despite both of them having gone right before we left the house. So chaotic.

Weekend was great, the weather was beautiful. Friday night we went camping with our friends. Saturday I got a lot of imperfect strawberries at the farmers market, and Sunday I made and canned 12 jars of jam. I took Friday off this week and we’ll be camping (just the three of us) Friday and Saturday night at a site right on the lake. I love the weather this time of year.

We had a nice time at the beach but C managed to find and chew up a piece of goose poop while I was getting the big kids dressed. I feel terrible about it and I'm paranoid she's going to get sick. Everyone is in bed a little bit early, which is nice. milano that sounds stressful! I hate days like that where it's just one thing after another.

My puppy ate some goose poop a few weeks ago and after a strict diet of boiled chicken, rice and banana for about 4 days, he was good as new. So maybe try that? Lol. Kids (and puppies) do the grossest things. I'm sure she will be ok!

It was so nice this weekend and I was stuck at work the whole time. Today was my single day off before I work 3 twelves. I cleaned a ton and sat outside waiting for my patio furniture that didn’t show up until 7PM.
While I was sitting outside and chatting with six feet apart neighbours, I watched visitors lining up at the nursing home across the street for the first time in months. I surprised everyone (myself included) for bursting into tears.
