I’m so excited that I got an appointment for L’s first covid shot. I could have scheduled it Thursday but in case he has a reaction the next day he can rest on Saturday and not miss school.
Work and school today. I’m hoping to finish homework today so I don’t have to worry about it this weekend.

Morning! I want to get S an appointment for the shot, but have to wait to discuss with her doctor in 2 weeks. With all her issues I want to make sure that they are ok with her getting it.
MH had a tooth pulled yesterday. It was next to a bridge, so now he has to get a double bridge. Bye bye monies.

Morning! I'm at work. I've only been here for 2.5 hours but it seems like waaaaay more than that.

Just booked C's vaccine for the 10th so he will have Veterans Day to recover. So excited!
Wednesdays the dog doesn't have daycare so she drives me nuts all day while I try to work. We have the added stress of the house being cleaned so napping isn't working out. I have a walk scheduled with my neighbor in a half an hour and I am hoping that will tire her out so I can make some phone calls undisturbed. So SSDD over here.

I have a luncheon to attend at the chamber of commerce for one of my school districts today. I'm not excited about it. I wonder if they're keeping the tables far apart.

morning! I'm so excited about the kids' vaccine. I tried to schedule it last night but it seems the locations closest to me don't have it available. I'm going to wait a few days to try to get it nearby and if it doesn't open up, I'll just schedule to the further locations.
Work (from home) this morning, then we head out of town till Sunday.

Cadence took 2 ziplock bags of candy to school today. She said 2 of her friends didn't get to trick or treat because they were at their grandparents, so she asked if she could make them candy bags with the candy she got. Go for it! I love girlscout days, she comes home with such a kind heart.
Thursdays (dance nights) are another story. She comes home tired and pissy.

I’m not sure we’ll ever get the vaccine for kids over here. There was a lot of debate about vaccinating 12-18yo already… so we’ll see.

Ds brought a Playdate home from school. I really don’t like it, I see risks everywhere, so now I’ll have to live with feeling on edge for a few days, which sucks. But I also don’t want ds to be the kid who’s the only one that isn’t allowed play dates. He was on cloud 9 when I said yes, so there’s that at least… I’m so tired of myself 🤦🏼♀️.
I made a pumpkin lentil soup that some how had no flavour whatsoever. Even after throwing in two stock cubes it’s still very meh.

Morning.
I’m at my hair appointment. Woohoo. There was an accident on the way to the city and I thought I was going to be late, but I made it with minutes to spare. Going to Costco and Trader Joe’s when I get done. Also to get some lunch somewhere new. Cant wait.

Cumin, onions, garlic and some Chili I’ll add in the end, because dd2 can’t eat it if I’ll add it now. I’ll add some yoghurt and fresh cilantro at the table.

I have a lentil soup on my list that I want to try. It may have sweet potatoes, too. ETA: here it is. www.cookingclassy.com/moroccan-sweet-potato-lentil-soup/

One of my tenants and my IT team are not playing nicely. Where in my job description does it say I’m a referee?

I keep wanting to make that Olive Garden rip off zuppa toscana recipe, but I never have sausage in the house when I want it. I have a super easy sweeet potato soup that I make pretty much bi weekly in the fall and winter.

Also, hi! I had the plumber here this morning changing out our kitchen faucet and a couple of other little things. We are slowly converting the house to one heating system so that's taking up all of my money (and it's not on anything fun!)

Hi again. I need to call the pediatrician to see if they are doing vaccines because I don't have faith that we have enough interest to host a town clinic for the kids. I'll probably check the Rite Aid as well to see if they've updated their systems.
I made the mistake of reading comments on a local blog about the approval. We should all have our children taken away for forcing them to wear masks and even thinking of giving them this "death poison". People are so dumb.

Hello. I’m over a week behind here because we have been non-stop. I got T a vaccine appointment for the 11th and DD for the 15th. I was going to wait on DD since she had covid but she really wants to go. T wanted to go last night when he heard the announcement and I heard him telling his friends on Xbox today to tell their moms to book their shots. We are off all week but the kids had a lot going on so it’s been as busy as a school week. I took a few hours to myself this afternoon for a massage and lunch with my sister.

At M's 1st basketball practice. The coach said we can leave if we want. I'm staying this week but I'll ask M what he wants me to do going forward.

Cass has grown over 3 inches in the past year and is already as big as M was when she was 9.

Does anyone else get stuff shipped through the Lasership carrier and has issues? I am not fond of them. The first package I got delivered with them- they put it at the wrong address- thankfully they took a picture of it so when I looked up tracking I could see where they put it and I grabbed it from there. A piece of another order was supposed to be shipped with them and never came. I just chatted with someone at Gap about it yesterday and got a refund. Now another package from Gap has been shipped with them and it says they have the package at the facility, but ‘we’re working hard to get your package to you’. It’s been there 2 days- in my state. 🙄 M2 needs his shirts! If this one gets lost, too, I need to make a complaint somehow because this rarely happens through ups, usps, and fed ex.
