Good morning! I’m at work, hoping for a chill day. I would much rather be at home in bed right now. H came into my bathroom when I was getting ready for work to tell me her tummy was upset. I really didn’t have time to deal with it so I told her to talk to DH. I don’t think he got up. I hope she went back to sleep hecaise 4:45 is way too early for her to be up.

Just gave evie her shot. We are going to go pick up half a side of beef, clean out the deep freeze, and divide it up between 3 houses. We might to go a furniture store that is having a sale and browse, but not sure.
H saw on the buildertrend app, where we follow the schedule, that our close date has now pushed out to mid January. Hes pissed, they didn't communicate why. Hes supposed to send an email, but he won't.

If you're looking for good shows Only Murders in the Building (Hulu) and Click Bait (Netflix) have been great so far.

We're on our way to Portland. Going to park at the zoo, take the train to downtown and check out the Saturday Market (more of hippie wares, crafts, and food carts than veggies), then go to the zoo and home.

Just realized results will take 1-2 days, so I bumped Cadence's appointment up to Monday.

Don't mind me having an internal meltdown over here as I discover that somehow my knitting needle broke and I lost a ton of stitches on the poncho I was making for Cass. 😭

Hi ladies. Dh let me sleep in to today, which is sweet, but I actually feel asleep again and felt like crap when I woke up. I suck at taking naps. And no caffeine to counter it since I’m nursing in demand 😭😭😭.
Poof (to much info about my whereabouts 😉)

Hello. I had a zoom meeting for my team. One person showed up out of the 5. The one who requested didn’t show up. Everyone has an excuse that’s BS. don’t ask for a superfluous meeting and then not attend. I’m just doing the assignment by myself.

We are hanging out at my in laws. Lola couldn’t wind down last night so Dh ended up sleeping on the couch next to her crate. I put her in for a nap and she was fine so hopefully tonight will be better. Pete’s aunt and family will be here soon for a cookout and tomorrow is another party for his cousin. Should be fun.

Charlie has such a stuffed up nose. He sounds like Monica from Friends in that episode where she she has a cold. I'll probably go to get him tested on Monday if it doesn't go away. MH is the biggest ball of stress abt the start of the year. At this point, I'm just annoyed by it (which I know is unkind) but he'll be home thru Wednesday and I need a break from his eeyore ways. I threw myself into closet cleaning so at least I'm being productive while the kids play and he grumps around.

So posted on my teams discussion board that all changes must be done by Wednesday so I have time to make all the changes and let everyone see it before I have to submit. Do not care if everyone participates I just want a good grade.

I've always been a huge Steve Martin fan. When I was a kid The Jerk was one of my favorite movies. 😂 Years ago I saw him play banjo with his blue grass group.

Today we are going to my dads to swim before he closes the pool for the season.
Yesterday we went to a furniture store to look at bedroom sets. Holy crap, they're expensive. What we have now...we both use dressers that our parents made, mine my dad made when he was in HS in 1968! Our bedframe is one me and my ex bought together. Nothing matches. A matching bedroom set seems so adult. But damn, to get a good set, I would easily drop 10k!

mwhip furniture is INSANELY priced. We just bought a new bed when we moved but I'm still using my dresser that I got as a graduation present from my dad..and then we found a matching one on craigslist for mh a few years later. I'd consider buying things separately that coordinate. I've considered just buying a headboard and not doing a full bed since that's a bit cheaper.

Morning! I don’t have too much left to actually pack in boxes. The majority of their shot is going to donations and will be picked up Tuesday. I hope to hear from the movers today about whether they’ll be here Monday or Tuesday and what time. That way I can schedule a get together with chrisy01!

Morning! Mh is out at home Depot and he's planting some perennials he picked up yesterday. He has grand plans, so I'm just hoping it turns out okay.
My mom/sis and most of extended fam are out at a wedding in WA state and I am having major FOMO. It just would have been too hard to swing for me, but glad they are all there.
And I am about to pick up a 16" woom bike I snagged on the neighborhood listserv for N. I wasn't sure if n should take over J's bike and get him a 24", but I think k and n will get good use out of this one. Hopefully she's excited about it even though it's red and not a frozen bike like she wants🙄

Starting with the most expensive piece, paying it off, then buying another piece. The stuff we like is solid wood, made my Amish, so it won't discontinue before we get everything. We are going to wait til we move though, so we know what kind of space we have.

We are going to wait til we move though, so we know what kind of space we have. If you like the Amish furniture, we bought this bed link and the quality is great and they came and set everything up. They'll send you wood samples in advance so you can make sure you like the color. And you can customize things like height of headboard, etc. There were a lot of great options there. We bought ours about 3 years ago. I am still using my old dressers and night stands that are similar style. Eventually we will probably buy new ones.

My uncle passed away the other day. He was my Dad's fraternal twin. We were not close. He was an asshole to me when I was at my Dad's taking care of him after his heart bypass several years ago and I never spoke to him again. But it still sucks that he died. It's weird though. Apparently he just decided to stop eating and drinking and he went downhill quickly. So family were asking about their birth and stuff and I KNOW I have my dad's birth certificate, but can't seem to find it. So I was looking through his wallet, something I've looked through a million times since he passed and suddenly there's a hundred bucks in it that i swear was not in it before. My mom said he probably sent it to me so I could send flowers to the funeral. So that is what I'll do with it.
