Last night M said thank you so many times and that it was her best birthday ever. She loved having dinner together as a family the most.
Cass and I both have colds. She is usually the early riser in the family but is still in bed. I plan to knit and watch scary shows today.

Morning. Kids must have a sub bus driver again because it came 5 minutes early and we missed it.
I Just finished making a yellow brick road for a wizard of oz float I’m helping with for a parade this weekend, and now L and I are watching cocomelon.
I’m selling a lot of our furniture that won’t work after the remodel and already got rid of our dining table and chairs last night and will be getting rid of our sectional, chairs and ottoman today. It’s going to feel so empty in here! Hopefully they actually start next week like they said.

Morning.
I got M2 to school and then went on to grocery store. Is it just me or is everyone’s grocery bill astronomical these days? I feel like I spend so much.
I have to make it to the gym soon because I have a dentist appointment after lunch.

I’m okay. I spent the night here last night and they come in every 2 hours to give meds and turn on all the lights. So that wasn’t delightful. Hospice should be back here today. One of the nurses got a hotel room close by in case it happened over night. They’ve been really great. I’m just hoping it happens today. I don’t want my mom sitting here for days just waiting, you know? And that way I can help my sister with the funeral home, etc so she doesn’t have to do it by herself. I appreciate y’all checking in on me. 💜

Cadence is in allergy hell lately. I should have sent an extra mask. I had high hopes when she woke up sounding good, but her nose immediately stuffed up and started running. I keep taking her temp, just in case. She is actually willingly taking her allergy meds.

I’m thinking of you tgrimes. The waiting has to be excruciating. Happy Belated M! inthekittylahdeedah food prices are insane. I’ve stopped buying steak. It was $17 for one meal. I could get a huge pizza and eat for days cheaper.

We had C’s play date Birthday party yesterday. The original plan was for his two best friends to come to our house but C decided he wanted to go to a playground with a big field to play sports. It was so simple and really nice and fun. Between the party and sports the weekend flew by.
His birthday is on Thursday and we are having dinner at my parents to celebrate both him and my dad. That will be the final celebration. Finally! We have tickets to go zip lining Saturday which was kind of a birthday thing but there’s a 75% chance of rain so we will see what happens.
Aside from that I’m busy with work because I made a mistake that made me do a bunch of accounting twice. So annoying.

I changed my flight to Thursday afternoon, but I will rebook it if necessary. MH said he’ll be fine with the kids. My in laws are out of town so they can’t help out.

And in 4 days I feel like I need to go back. 😩

We already thought groceries were insanely expensive two years ago! Especially the more healthy stuff 🤦🏼♀️.
But groceries have gotten more expensive here too… it sucks.

guster hope it's a quick fix and doesn't cost too much! lahdeedah our grocery bill is stupid high too and I don't buy beef in the store, but I do buy at least 1 package of chicken every weekend. And bacon. OMG, bacon is crazy. And trying to eat healthier, so more fresh produce. It's just stupid. H is always asking how I spend so much on groceries...uh, it isn't hard.

I'm slightly hungover today also, but just tired. I HAD to drink to make it through the Chiefs game yesterday. Tomorrow is PJ day at Evie's school. She doesn't wear actual PJs to bed anymore, just shorts and a tshirt, so nothing fits. I ran to target and grabbed her some options, but there were no long pant/short sleeve shirt options, so she can mix and match I guess.

Cadence has requested no gifts from her friends at her party. She says she wants them to bring toys and treats for us to donate to the humane society. I said that that was fine and I would put that on the invitations. I'm inviting my friend since she has a daughter C's age. She keeps insisting I send her links to what Cadence wants. I keep saying she wants toys and treats for the homeless dogs and cats and she acts like I'm lying. I don't understand why its so hard to just NOT buy a gift.

What a sweetheart klong11! Although I am that asshole that would keep asking you, no really, what does she want? Because my kids want all the presents. So in summary, good momming. You are raising a kind child

You are raising a kind child I think she thinks there will be a trade involved at some point. Donate toys and treats, receive a puppy. LOL They've been closed to the public since covid started(everything was appointment only), but have finally opened back up and shes anxious to pet all the animals.

klong11 that is too sweet. I’d be that mom who would badger you, because I’d donate and buy something small for the birthday girl. Because she’s 8 and it’s her birthday and telling me she wants to donate, would make me want to buy her a present even more 🙈.
