Weekend! Weekend!

[guster]

Have a good one, ladies!

[guster]

The family canceled on me late last night so now all I have planned are flu shots for the kids and ballet for Josie. If it's nice we'll go to the town playground, but I wished we could find something else's today.

Josies going through a weird sleep week-- she can't fall asleep at night. It's not affecting her yet, but I'm sure it'll catch up with her. I'm playing hard ball about it-- if she comes in to see us, I silently walk her back to bed, but mh is a big softy and will sit with her and talk and talk and talk with her. Then she'll still wake up at a really early hour. We have never had any sleep issues with her-- aside from giving up a nap at 2, so this is uncharted terrritory for me.

[tgrimes]

guster I hate it when MH & I aren’t on the same page.

[mwhip]

Is there a sleep regression at 7 guster? Dear God, let's hope not! But I hope she gets back to normal soon!

[mwhip]

Nothing exciting here this weekend. I need to do the things I do every weekend, laundry, groceries and clean. Blah, but I enjoy these weekends so much more than the weekends we have plans.

T’s test was negative so hopefully we are all back to school for Monday. He’s still technically quarantined so he can’t go to his first soccer game today. I will be spending the day prepping for work and disinfecting everything (again).

Morning. Dh left early for an overnight golf trip. N and H have their first day of soccer, so we’ll head there soon. There is an arts and crafts fair going on so we’ll probably check that out after soccer and grab lunch. Not much after that, but I’m hoping for a quiet night with a movie and sushi.

M has TKD team then I'm taking the girls to the trampoline place for a birthday party.

It's been a long and stressful week so I just want to relax.

I'll try to put up the fall/Halloween decor.

Dh has C at soccer photos and they got the team pic but the line for the individual is super long and he has a game in 15mins. The coach said it’s ok to be late but C doesn’t want to do that. Of course I paid for the package already so it’s just going to go to waste if he doesn’t get the individual photo. I’m so annoyed.

Also Lola had puppy playgroup this morning and stepped in poop an owner brought in on her shoe. Of course it all over one leg and her tail so I’ll be late to the game so I came wash her up. It’s also looking like it might rain and we have a court cookout today. Basically all of our plans are falling to rubble. Can I just go back to bed?

Morning.

I didn’t get any good sleep last night. M2 was in my bed and he felt feverish most of the night and was so restless. Of course my mind was anxious. He woke up early and didn’t feel warm anymore. He is a little congested but otherwise acting normal. I was going to take him to karate, but that’s out and now I’m just watching him. I may try to get him a rapid test. No known exposure, but the temp is what I’m worried about. Hopefully he just caught my crud I still have going on. I think my sinus cold is turning into a sinus infection. Guess I need to test, too just in case.

Morning. Dd had a birthday party, so I took ds to a mini zoo, so that he has something fun too. It took us al but 45 min to do the zoo, so truly a mini zoo 😂. We went for icecream and cafe at a place next to a nature play ground and a gnoom trail, we did both and had a lovely time just the two of us . Steak and fries for dinner, yum!

We planned to go to Knott’s berry farm but the line to get in was ridiculous. We will try tomorrow. Instead I got them donuts they picked out and juice and popcorn while we watch it’s a great pumpkin Charlie Brown and now we are watching the snoopy show. Both kids are happy.

I hate days like that!

I took Matthew to sign up for basketball this morning and then Mallory and I got lunch and had a picnic at the park. Alex took the boys to a tractor pull that she could not go to so I was trying to do something fun with her. She didn't have any fun though because she somehow figured it out and just wanted to be with the boys. Also my mother in law was supposed to come with me and Mallory and she bailed on us so Mallory was upset about that too. We are home and she knows they are gone without her so I'm sure my attempts at a nap will be great...

Cadence and I went to target for a birthday gift. $189 we have a new cat scratcher, snacks we don't need, and a birthday gift. oh and of course a Spirit sing along microphone.

I rarely take the kids with me to target if I actually go. It always costs me 100x more if I do a pickup order

At least you got the birthday gift!

Did I tell y’all my sister had to take my mother to the ER? She woke up crazy. She took off her clothes and walked into the living room naked, refused to put in a robe, wondered the house until she went to pee in my sister’s closet, was trying to out her eye drops in her eyes without anything in her hands, etc. we were scared of a stroke but ct scan was normal. Turns out it’s just a terrible UTI. She’s on day 3 of antibiotics and is still acting weird, but not as bad as she was originally.

My poor sister.

[tgrimes]

Also the movers totally screwed me. They were trying to charge me more but I fought it and they corrected the amount. However now they’re saying the salesperson have me incorrect information about delivery dates. They have from 7-30 days to deliver, blah blah blah. The issue is my sister only took 2 weeks of my parents’ pills with her. The rest are all packed with the movers. So Monday they’re out of pills.

Wonderful.

[mwhip]

tgrimes that's bullshit about the movers. Insurance likely won't give a crap about that to give you a partial refill. Hopefully your mom is back to her normal lovely self soon!

[inthekitty]

tgrimes grr to those movers. Fuckers. Omg to the UTI having such an effect on your mom. I've heard about that before but never witnessed it. You should send your sister some zhampagne. 🥂

[inthekitty]

I feel like I'm 187 yo. It's way too loud at this bounce place. I want to...speak to the manager...and ask them to turn it down.

klong11 do any OTC drops help your eyes when your allergies are raging? Mine have been so bad lately and Zyrtec isn't doing a thing. I want to rip them out. The upper and lower lids around my left eye look like a wrinkled ball sack because of how puffy it gets.

You're welcome for that visual.

Lolololol @ karenalert.

[lahdeedah]

Your poor sister. tgrimes I’ve definitely heard of the UTI crazy effect. Sorry it got to that point. And TP to the movers. Hope y’all get the med situation figured out. Do you think their docs can send a week’s worth prescription to the pharmacy?

My eye doctor recommended Blink and I really like them. They have a line for contact wearers that I use.

M2 hasn’t had an appetite at all and has been extra cuddly. Poor kid isn’t feeling well. He was normal for a while this morning, but I think once he burned some energy and wasn’t refueling, it hit him. We got a covid swab, but the results won’t come until Monday or Tuesday. It was a cheek swab, so I need to read how accurate those are. Our testing options still suck here. The one we went to was set up by the city to accommodate demand.

He just woke up from a nap and we’re watching Monsters. It’s a dreary day out, so perfect for movies and cuddles with mom.

[guster]

I hope m2 feels better, @lahderdah. I hate that not knowing if it's a regular cold or Covid.
inthekitty, I am slightly allergic to the new cat and alaway drops are so helpful.
tgrimes, yikes to it all!! I'm sorry your sister is dealing with this.

[klong11]

tgrimes yikes! I hope your mom is ok and the movers show up soon. How far out are they quoting you for delivery?

[guster]

We had a nice day-- bought some mums for the front of the house, everyone helped me replant them and do a little fall cleanup of the front steps.
We ordered Chinese, picked up 4
more mums and then watched some of Into the Spider Verse.
Kids are having some iPad time.
Fingers crossed bedtime goes better. It's our own fault (not a sleep regression, mwhip)Literally since the first lock down the kids have had a sleepover, but now Charlie is a little more tired before Josie is and wants to go to sleep but Josie doesn't want to spend time in the other room or even with us reading, so we put an end to
sleepovers until it's settled. Now
she doesn't want to sleep alone at all. Like I said, it's our own fault. So now we're trying to decide if it's better if they have a sleep over so everyone actually sleeps or we stand our ground. It's been about 2 weeks of it and is has gotten better but not great.
