Tell me about it. I'm still trying to figure out where the time went. When you figure that out, you let me know.

When it rains it pours! My stupid car. We are going to go test drive new ones this weekend so of course the AC has stopped working and then yesterday the muffler cracked. DH found a place that said they can repair it (instead of replace) but seriously. DH said "she knows she's about to be replaced" and that's why she's acting up.

RunsforWineandCarbs every district is different in when they've determine when you start kinder. 5 by a certain date. If I remember right, A has a spring birthday. She'd likely start next fall. Isaac is 5, turning 6 in march. He starts kinder this year.

When does my kid start kindergarten people? I need help adulting!!! G starts fall 2018. She'll be almost 5. I'm going to be a wreck. Every district can set their own cut off dates, so you'll want to check into yours. Ours is 9/30(31?) so Gwen barely makes the date.

I didn't log on at all yesterday so I'm going to try and get caught up throughout the day. Maybe bring conversations over into today's thread.

Guys. My heart.
So DS has a little "girlfriend" (whatever that means at 7 years old). They played together every recess and wrote notes to each other all year about Star Wars. I just got a message from his mom yesterday that they're moving across the state in a few weeks. They're having a going away party at the splash pad next week.
I told him last night and he started sobbing. I said "I know honey, it's hard when friends move away..." and he looks at me with these teary eyes and says "mom she isn't my friend, she's my soulmate." Little man is killing me!

Yes, A turns 5 in April 2018. I think she'd make the cutoff - i don't know the exact date but i feel like the cut off is Sept.

I.....do not want to work today. I've been staring at an excel sheet for 20 minutes. So far I froze a pane and changed some headers. It's going to be a long day.

I need to order kid's birthday presents on Friday. DD asked for a mermaid blanket, and DS....I think I'm going to get him Moana on bluray since every time we start a kids movie he says "MONNA MONNA". They really don't need any more toys, so I thought a movie would be good? I told everyone else who asked get them books.

I think H is golfing Saturday morning for his birthday. I need to find something to do with kids so we're not at the IL's all day. I'm thinking the park after breakfast and then maybe the library? I wonder how long is too long to play at the park? If I bring snacks and drinks, and we got there at 9:00, we could easily play until noon I think. Then B would be nice and tired after lunch and take a good nap since we're going to a cookout at 5:00.

Been trying to figure out winter clothes for the kids. How much do you buy? I feel like we always have way more than needed so I'm hoping to cut back this year. For us, I'm still finding balance between having enough clothes to not do laundry every other day and way too much. For me I buy for the kids: 2 sweaters (that are more neutral to wear with many outfits) 1 zip or cardigan 3-5 long sleeve shirts 2 warm jeans/trousers 3 tights/sweatpants I carry summer tops over to the fall to layer under sweaters for that crappy in between weather.

I think I might go straight to a brewery after work instead of going to IL's to hang out for 2 hours. I just...don't want to be there.

My mom just sent me this. PDQ. This is how they are at all times when they're together. It's super cute most of the time, until they start wrestling. Which is always how it ends up.
