I started the morning show a couple days ago and love it so far. No idea how I have to apple+ but I'm not going to complain about it. Also to check out Ted Lasso and The Servant. One is fun and the other highly disturbing. I do love the morning show too. Have you watched See? I’ve heard bad thing about it but Jason Momoa.

Working from while sick and have two sick kids is not fun. I was on a call when L started yelling (for nothing except my attention) and the guy I was talking to is not patient so he was annoyed.
This is such a double edge sword. I do get more work done from home most days but you never know what will happen with the kids being around.

I'll have to wait until my no-TV thing is over to catch much more of it. Ted Lasso is also on my list and now adding The Servant. The third season of Sex Education is out now. I watch it on my phone during the day at work when no one can give me crap about it. So far so good.

I had it for free for almost 2 years. I paid the renewal fees because the kids love the Snoopy show and there are a few things on there that I want to watch. I don’t know if we will renew next year. ::whispers:: I haven't bought a new phone since Hayden was born...

Nothing exciting today. Just work and tonight and tomorrow night is belt-testing so MH and I will be on the board. (None of us are testing so no pressure there. Unfortunately the Grand Master lets his narcissism flair when he has a forced captive audience so tonight will likely drag on.)
On the work front they are threatening taking away telework AGAIN. I'm so fucking annoyed with my hospital. We're supposed to be on permanent TW status with renewal every 2 years now. They are hemorrhaging staff like crazy to the point that they might lose important accreditations which would fuck them royally because they would then lose all their interns and residents. Yet they are cutting bonuses to full-time staff, not hiring new people when they have huge shortages putting a bigger burden on the people still here, and then trying to screw over the few benefits like TW. It really makes me pissed because it impacts childcare issues for me and you can't plan for shit when they keep threatening to take it away. If the Army actually wanted to for once so something smart it would fully embrace TW because they are in so many shitty locations they could fill some vacancies if people didn't have to actually move there for jobs that can be done remotely.
On the positive side, at my other job I had more paperwork come up for another stage of my promotion and after a lot of crap that went into it over the past month my part is done and they've almost done their part. Hopefully I'll actually pin in in OCT or NOV at the latest.

Hey. This morning V and I met a friend and her kids at the park. It was nice to chat with an adult. I picked up a couple shirts at kohl’s for the kids to wear for pictures tomorrow, my H&M order won’t be here in time. I don’t have anything else planned for the day. DH and I have been talking about staying at a hotel one night when he’s on vacation the week of our anniversary (since we never booked a tropical vacation like I was hoping to) and conveniently we got a coupon in the mail for a free night stay at the local casino. They have a nice restaurant and a spa, so we could get a couples massage. tgrimes That’s so annoying you have to get a new GI for M. But, look at the bright side, this new doctor might have some new ideas for you so it might be a good thing.

WWN13 do:
I'm stressing out about this upcoming wedding. MH is in the wedding. It's about 100 people. I am not super close to them, but like them well enough, and I know they have been careful, although they let their guards down a lot since vaccines. Most of their friends and family are vaxxed, but obviously not sure about everyone.
I have not ate indoors at a restaurant in 18 months. I haven't been in a store unmasked, etc. I am bugging out about this wedding. But like, even if I cancel, MH has to go, since he's in it. So is there any reason for me not to go too? Potentially he would be more likely to be exposed since I assume pics etc will all be unmasked.
It's also 2 hours away, so I am calling in huge favors and having S's BFFs family watch the boys overnight. MH and I can't even really enjoy the night away b/c he leaves on a work trip the next morning (straight from the hotel).
I know the right thing to do is to go, since MH is in it, but I am just dreading everything about it.

But wouldn't you be pissed if one of your groomsmans wives didn't come? Like isn't that sort of a given barring extreme circumstances?

I don't think so...but some bridal parties are way more stringent than I am. I'd just say you couldn't come up with childcare. Kids have to be a great excuse for getting out of events you don't really want to attend anyway.

jewels, go with your comfort level. I'm not a wedding person (my ceremony was only ~35 people and I'm not into most of the usual traditions), that being said, if I were the bride I really wouldn't care if a groomsmen's spouse weren't there, especially if I weren't close to them and cared more about the groomsmen. I think weddings/indoor events can be done relatively safely now if there are extra precautions in place, but it's more about your comfort level. If you'll be anxious you won't enjoy time with your husband anyway and maybe you could spend extra time together before he goes on his work trip.

H got approved for articulation yesterday. She was impressed how many sounds he's able to make since having surgery. M's GI is leaving so now I have to start over with another one at our next appt. Very annoying. Great news about H! How insanely frustrating for M though.

It's 55 and rainy here. I'm off and have all the windows open, being lazy on the couch with blankets on. It's the best.

I know the right thing to do is to go, since MH is in it, but I am just dreading everything about it. If you're dreading it, don't go. This. Because YH is leaving for work the next day, I think it matters if you go or not. On the small chance that you do end up sick, You’ll be single parenting with the kids. That would keep me home. The details of the wedding don’t sound horrible, but you can’t trust people to do the right thing. If you go and no one is masked then you will be more panicked and miserable than if you just stayed home. I get it. I so badly want to do normal stuff, and these types of things are so tempting. ETA: I don’t think they would care if you don’t come in these times. Just use the kids excuse.

jewels I would skip it if you weren’t particularly excited about it to begin with. Being the spouse of someone in a wedding kinda sucks. I remember MH being in one when we were newly married and they did a bridal party only cocktail hour (the rest of us had cocktail hour but not with the bridal party). I literally only knew the people in the bridal party so I hung out alone. It’s not even like at dinner where at least you are assigned seats so people feel obligated to talk to you. You can just tell them your vaccinated internet friend got covid so you aren’t risking it.

Also to check out Ted Lasso and The Servant. One is fun and the other highly disturbing. I do love the morning show too. I started The Morning Show recently as well and like it so far. I'll have to wait until my no-TV thing is over to catch much more of it. Ted Lasso is also on my list and now adding The Servant. The third season of Sex Education is out now. I watch it on my phone during the day at work when no one can give me crap about it. So far so good. I’m rewatching the first two seasons of Sex Education with Dh and we will do the third. I’m not 100% sure if he like it or not though. chrisy01 I’ll have to look up See. Jason Mamoa doesn’t do it for me though. He’s one of those that I just don’t get the attraction at all. Different strokes and all that.

Thanks guys. My H has said from the start that I should do what I think is best. I guess my other reason besides the obligation for going is that MH will be there so it’s just as much risk since if he gets sick likely we all do (it’s a short trip so he’ll be home likely by the time he’d be getting sick)
He’s away now. I’ll chat with him when he calls tonight.
Also I have already told the kids they get to sleep at BFFs house. They’ll be devastated lol.
