Morning! (For 10 more minutes) We baked zucchini muffins this morning. They aren't as flavorful as I was hoping, I think it was the recipe I used. The kids and I'll eat them and it'll be fine, but I'll probably do a different recipe next time. I just got S down for a nap, H will be laying down for her rest time shortly. DH will be home in like 1/2 hour.

At the in laws. I'm trying to see if we can sneak out tonight for dinner instead of eating here. Their food is terrible and last time I got so sick.
No one has mentioned my weight loss either. They don't know about the surgery and I'm not telling them but damn, I've lost 75#, a compliment would be nice. 😤

Secondly, how in the world do they not mention how good you look? Do you think they would have a problem if you told them about the surgery?

Probably not but we aren't that close and they are kind of judgey sometimes so it's not worth it.

I'm currently at work. Super busy even though no one has called or visited. I'm currently on hour 4. I did send our 46 emails to people to come pickup or approve replacements of their stuff. I question what the team did on Friday and the person who worked Saturday. So much chaos in the office when I walked in

I had to google 😂 I've never been stung before myself so I figured I should clean it, but beyond that I was clueless. Ice helped take the swelling down. They are both fine now. Mama needs a drink!

That is amazing wedding! You are doing great! I am at work. MH is home with S today. I love when they get days together without me. Because she will be all about daddy tonight for a change since they spent the day together! I did talk MH into coming into the office and setting up a cell phone booster in my office for me today. It involved crawling in the attic and on the roof. But, I now have cell service in my office!!

flamingo I wouldn't know what to do either... and I'd be terrified since I'm terrified of bees. I try so hard to not let S see that I'm scared bc I don't want it to rub off on him, but it's hard. Glad they are ok wedding holy crap, 75 lbs is amazing! It's only been a few months. That's incredible! You should definitely treat yourself to something (maybe a shopping trip?) as a reward!

Thanks guys. I asked Dh wtf was wrong with his family. He's like "they haven't seen you in a long time". Wouldn't that make them notice more? Whatever. Dh didn't say anything about my weight loss until last night for the first time. His family is really odd so I shouldn't be so surprised.

Dh didn't say anything about my weight loss until last night for the first time. His family is really odd so I shouldn't be so surprised. Yeah, one thing that I pondered--if you wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt--was maybe they noticed but were afraid to say anything in case they were mistaken ("hey wedding, you look like you've lost some weight!?" "No, I'm the same as I've always been"...:awkward silence: )or something, KWIM? Orrrrr they could just be oblivious jerks. My MIL is kind of like that--haven't noticed it with physical appearance-type things but when we've done something major to the house (new floors, or furniture, or whatever) she wouldn't comment. I know she notices this stuff, but for whatever reason (I have my theories) she never compliments us.

Phew! We just had our little adventure for the day. B ran inside screaming and crying with a bee sting so I took both kids into the bathroom to doctor him up. I closed the door behind us so C wouldn't crawl out into the hall. Next thing I know, there's a bee (same one? New one? No clue) flying angrily around the bathroom. B starts screaming again, C is crying at the commotion, and the thing is practically dive-bombing us! It's a tiny bathroom (old house) so there's literally no where to go. I scooped the kids up and we ran into the bedroom across the hall and slammed the door. All the windows are open so I'm sure all the neighbors are wondering what in the heck is going on over here. ETA: it got C, too! On her neck below her chin. Poor girl! On a positive note, neither of the kids seem to be having terrible reactions. We had a nest of attack bees in our barn last year. Apparently there's some that actually seek revenge??? So us killing a few singaled the whole nest to attack..

vino that's amazing! I'm heavier than I've ever been in my life. Like heavier then I was 6 weeks post partum. I just can't get it together! For the past many months I've been telling myself I'll deal w it after his birthday. So now is the time. I think I'm gonna join weight watchers Saturday. I've had success with it in the past. Honestly it's really the tracking that helps me. I'm trying to convince MH to join with me since he does most of the cooking, it would certainly help
