Wahoo! I have a busy day at work because of course they overbooked me. But it's almost the weekend so whatever. The girls got haircuts yesterday.

I'm here. I have my extras and I was only partially successful in dropping them for the school year.. They finally agreed that I can't help with the boy and they are working that out. But want me to still keep their girl 1 day a week. I'm just going to deal. The extra cash and socialization for MJ is worth it.
A is fixing a wheel baring on the golf cart today so hopefully it doesn't take long so we can go on rides. It helps break up the day with this many. And he's going to mow. I hate when he mows but I have no time so he has to. He just does it wrong and gets offended when I try to say anything. Whatever. I'll fix it next week.

Cute inthekitty! peachsmama if someone else is willing to mow, I do not give a shit what it looks like. I used to do it all the time, but H has been doing it more recently. There are certain things you have to learn to let go.

Happy Freaking Friday.
I'm at work half day today. We are meeting with the paint and flooring people at 1, this is the last house related meeting required. They poured the garage floor yesterday and are doing the basement floor Tuesday. Hopefully framing by the end of next week.

Ooooh, I forgot our new washing machine will be delivered this morning. The transmission went out on our washer last weekend I think...I'm not sure, we've still been using it, but it started making a new noise last week, so that's when I think it completely went. It was going to cost a minimum of $500 to repair, so we just bought a new one. Should deliver between 9:30 and 1:30 today. H said if we are at the place for the house stuff, he will just run home and take care of it. Hopefully there are no issues with the delivery.
I'm over excited about a new washer...being an adult sucks.

There are certain things you have to learn to let go. Mowing grass is my me time though. I put in headphones and noise cancelling ear muffs to drown out the mower and I get 3 glorious hours to myself.

Morning. We went to see my grandma this morning, it has been over a year and a half since we where inside, but since the kids are three weeks out of school and all the adult are vaxxed, we figured it was safe enough. It was nice and my grandma loved it. We’re putting together a gift box for my bil, we put in a nice sketch book & arts supplies, new pj’s, socks, soap from lush, chocolate, a comic book & drawings from the kids, not sure there’s more we can do. Not sure who asked, but this is the nursery (don’t look at the photobomber;)). Pdq

Same old over here. We're going to check out a little farm in the area that has a kangaroo, and I'm sure we'll stop for ice cream. Josie was in a mood this morning and MH seems to have caught it so that's fun! Otherwise, it's pizza night over here and I might start Mare of Easton tonight. I bought some cbd seltzers snd I'm hoping they're tasty!

He doesn't do the lines right. Blows it wrong so it lays to heavy in places. Doesn't get close enough to things and leaves grass standing. He claims so he can weed eat it, but doesn't actually go back and weed eat. Our yard is huge, we mow close to 5 acres.

Hi. So glad it’s Friday. nam2013 I love it! inthekitty Those are some edgy girls you have there and I love it! guster I want to watch Mare, too, but I don’t have HBO max right now. I may upgrade my cable streaming which would be cheaper than just getting the app. mwhip woohoo on a new washer!

I’m still trying to figure out what to do about next week for M2. He can’t go back to school until Friday and my neighbor that I thought was going to watch him sent me a text about babysitters she found so now I’m like- guess that means she won’t be watching him. It dawned on me that her daughter has camp next week, so she’s probably looking forward to her time alone, so I can’t blame her. MH goes to Virginia for a conference Tuesday, so I may end up taking off because my options are slim.

My stepdad could write a dissertation about this. I, on the other hand, view it as if it's mowed, it's good.

That sucks lahdeedah . I hope something comes through. It's really frustrating to be at the same place a year later because of some yahoos. klong11 wahoo! peachsmama was it Wild Hearts Can't be Broken that you suggested? It's on Disney+! Cass watched it while we were on vacation. I need to watch it with her now. I saw it when I was a kid...but that was a long time ago nam2013 it looks great! I know this might sound odd, but if I were in your BiL's place I'd probably want some sort of fidget, like a stress ball or Silly Putty. I'm tactile and need to move so it would probably help with being bed-bound. If he's not that type though he may not want something like that.

inthekitty Love the haircuts! Is that a braid in the back? C (my N13) got the side shave like M but it doesn't go back as far. It stops right about at her ear and M's goes past that about an inch. The rest is in a French braid to the side. She wanted to keep the rest long. The hair stylist was afraid to cut it and asked her if she was sure about a dozen times. Cass was certain about it and loves it. I think it looks cute. M still wanted me to let her shave it basically bald (into a crewcut the length of her side shave). I told her I'm not ready to let her do that yet (mostly because I think she just wants to do it out of laziness to not have to comb her hair). I thought this was a good middle ground and if she's still serious about shaving it in a year I'll probably let her. Her hair is shaved up the back about 2 inches and the rest is styled poofily-swoopily off to the side. No braid.
