We had a super busy weekend and the weather was AMAZING. Needed that!! Sipping my macchiato and working with the windows open, so definitely not the worst Monday I've had.

I just finished my first cup of coffee. Waiting on our contractor to show up to work on the bathroom.
It's snowing and -14C (7F). We had crazy amounts of rain and snow over the weekend. Several of our neighbours were getting water in their basements and lots of roads were flooded. We were ok but our backyard looked like a pond at some point. I'm so sick of gloomy, cold weather.
MH took the big kids to an arcade yesterday and they had so much fun. They had hot dogs and mini donuts for lunch, rode a carousel, played mini-golf and laser tag. It was good for them to get out of the house for once!

Lots of coffee this morning.
I woke up at 4am and never fell back to sleep. I should have just gotten out of bed.
Going to try out a martial arts class with F today, hit the library, and power yoga tonight at 7. It’s with one of the faster instructors. I’m challenging myself this week with 2 power yoga classes and a sculpt class. I’m still sore from my Saturday morning sculpt class.

Had a cup and a half of coffee with vanilla toffee creamer and I might regret it lol. Stupid heartburn. This weekend was fun, we announced to my parents on Saturday (my mom said "I had a feeling" lol) and our best friends on Sunday (bestie had no clue, and I wish I could post a video here because her reaction was honestly HILARIOUS). Today is cold, with a wind chill bringing it down to almost freezing, but I have to run some errands in a little bit. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice, around 15c (60f) so we'll probably get outside with the kids for a bit. I also have my last denture appointment to do a try in and I'm kind of wondering if I'm going to cry when I try them on, since I seem to be rather emotional these days

We made it safely home last night, and as of about 11am today the dogs are back home too. They had a great time while we were gone and I have already bathed the "fun" off of them 😆. I chugged a cup of coffee before waking the kids up at 830 so we could be out the door for school at 845....the time change adjustment is no joke. We had such a great week but I'm also happy to be back home with my pups.
Looking forward to some warm spring weather this week with some baseball games, self-care (hair & mani/pedi appts), and birthday parties this weekend.

It’s pouring rain here but I don’t mind since I don’t have to go anywhere.
I was sick Friday, so now I’m playing catch up at work and desperately trying to feel productive.
I need to make a hair appointment and call the vet buuuuuut there’s always tomorrow for that 🫠

I am STUGGLING to get motivated today.
When I went to pick up my kids yesterday (we do kid exchange at my parents house halfway between his house and mine) my mom asked if I got some rest over the weekend because I looked SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO tired on Friday. No wonder she asked me to call when I got home, she never does that.
I did finish up the paperwork to renew my passport on Friday and got an extra key made for my safe.

It’s been raining and my kids are being insufferable. They spent a fair amount of the day so far on electronics and I’m trying not to care. We did get out to look for worms and read a book about decomposition. B watched a video about how to build a worm farm and now wants to make one so he can sell them to buy lego 🤣. So that’s our homeschool plan for the week.

Made a decent amount all summer!

My dog was an idiot and jumped up while I was holding my coffee mug, hit her head on the bottom, causing about half the coffee to spill everywhere. I was not happy. Must get more coffee, now

All over my chest and arm. 😑 I was so mad I didn't take her with me to the bus stop and caught up on emails before I took her out for an open field walk.

Struggling today.
We have a training platform. Which is great when it’s maintained.
So many broken links.

Was feeling stressed about work stuff so I impulse-purchased an at-home kit for gel manicures. If I’m gonna be stressed, I’m going to look good doing it.

I bought a home waxing kit. I’m sick of leg hair and shaving. Still leaving the bikini line and eyebrows to professionals. Also splurged on a king sized bed.

Also want to order some fancy coffee.
I love the Army of Darkness Bones coffee. I really want to splurge on some treats. And a new mug.

For the record we were planning on this with the construction. Since we are delayed, we just said Fuck it. We desperately need. New bed with more support and room. I will move a dresser out if needed and store things in the basement. Our bathroom is downstairs anyway.

It were goooood We bought a replacement part for our blender last week just to make blended coffee at home now that the heat is coming. We use an instant cappuccino mix from Costco. Freeze some drip coffee as ice cubes for it!

I haven't had a single week since fall that I don't have a sick kid home with me at least one day.
Today is N with a headache and low grade fever.
Thank the gods for working from home and a super understanding boss.
