We are going to my dads to swim today and plan on doing nothing tomorrow.
Evie convinced us to hold her shot until tonight so she wouldn't feel yucky today. So I guess I'll have to not drink very much.

I'm getting coffee and my nails done. They could go one more week but I chipped my thumb and it keeps scratching the kids and I snag it on everything. We are having my nephews birthday party at my house today so I need to get back quickly. Hoping everyone clears out by 5 and I can revamp one of my flower beds. I bought everything for it. Just need the time.

We were invited to a first birthday party today. It's both in and outside but the family hosting -- 6 adults and the baby (obviously) haven't been vaccinated so we're passing. It makes me irrationally annoyed that they're not vaxxed. Instead we're gong to the beach and getting sushi for lunch. It's a fair trade off. I ordered Josie a bunch of stuff from old navy, justice and Carter's and it all got here this last night. I ordered mostly 7s and some 8slims things and she tried them on this morning, and some are too small and some too big. It's crazy!

Well they were to busy and told me to come back in 3 hours.... I made an appointment at another salon for tomorrow at 1 since my place is closed on Sundays and I can't wait until Friday when A is off. Ugh.

Morning.
I have nothing planned, but I need to do some cleaning. I’m also going to Walmart to grab a cheap 20 buck coffee maker because I’m not paying for a pull price keurig. We have one at work so that will do during the week.
I think mh will be getting the water slide out later, so I’ll probably be chatting with a couple neighbors when the kids come over.

Peeking in to say hi!
Vax question/frustration….I have an employee who is anti vax. Last night she texted me that she didn’t want the girl who was supposed to ride with her today to be in the vehicle with her all day because she was concerned about the confined space. I feel like she just didn’t want a “tag a long” because she likes her independence and to work by herself more. But because of that request I gave up my vehicle to the ride a long and am driving a POS with no AC.
I am treading lightly because I want to be supportive of my staffs concerns, but at the same time, if your that concerned, go get the damn shot! It wasn’t until after the fact that I realized I should have just told them to wear a mask if they were concerned. I’m not really sure what to do.
The petty part of me wants to make her ride with someone every day and mask up because I’m 95% sure her real reason is that she just wants to do her own thing and not be accountable for anything. I guess I’m just annoyed.

Also, hi! Life’s been crazy this summer. Last week S went to stay with my parents for the week. It was a nice break but MH and I fought for half of it so hard to truly enjoy. Now my parents are at our house for the next 2 weeks to babysit while our sitter takes a break before her H goes back to school. He’s a teacher and coach so they wanted a break for a few weeks of family fun before school starts back up.

Since the weather is going to suck tomorrow, we took the kids on a long walk, played mini golf and had lots of outdoor time. Tomorrow is our last day on vacation and although I’m loving the fact my kids have so much outside space to play (and the proximity to the woods) I’m ready to go home. Dd2 has been a handful (to say the leAst), hopefully being home will help her calm down a little. After no3 I think it’s fair to say, we make cute kids, bur they’re incredibly high maintenance as babies…

Hi! MH stayed with H last night so I could hang with M. He just got home a bit ago! He’s a bit whiny and I suspect he’s milking this for all he can. I don’t blame him at all. Lol.
I just need to make sure he’s drinking enough to stay hydrated. I don’t want to end up back at the hospital because he’s dehydrated.

Well. We had a terrifying incident. We were at a restaurant and tornado warnings went off. Everyone is kind of trying to figure out what to do...small indoor space, lots of windows, no basement. Clark's looking outside and says he sees smoke. We look out .... it's a giant tornado forming headed right at us! We all gathered in the middle of the room around a brick fireplace. Thankfully it changed direction and headed away. Whew. First time I've ever seen a tornado! Hopefully last lol. I think I would have shit my pants if I wasn't so focused on keeping the kids calm.

I feel like super woman today. I got 99% of the kids school supply shopping done. I’ve cleaned two toilets. Done a load of dishes and got half my laundry done. I also finished all my homework and tests for this week.
I also just ordered a new swimsuit. E wants to go swimming and my old swimsuits don’t fit any more.

lfig I would definitely tell her Monday that if she is uncomfortable she can wear a mask. You don’t get special privileges because you choose not to vaccinated. Be uncomfortable MFer.

As soon as the kids leave, MH is asking about dinner and what we are doing. I take the at as he is hungry and we’ll be ready to go soon. Then he takes his sweet time- over and hour at this point- doing God know’s what outside because all he had to do was get the chairs back on the patio. We’re all ready to go and he’s just putzing around. 🙄
Lord help me.

Kayaking was awesome. The water is so clean and nice. Even with all the boats it's not oily.
We're relaxing now, but later we'll head to the pool. I promised them they could close it out again tonight and stay until 10 (that way they won't get too much sun).

Not irrational at all guster. I’m pretty upset that people who aren’t vaccinated are having people over for a party. Me too! And the other half of my family that is vaccinated doesnt think it's a big deal to socialize with the unvaccinated, so now I pretty much see no one on that side.
