Morning all.
B started the day by opening the drapes, whimpering about there being no snow then shedding real tears that it's not Christmas yet.
Just a regular, unpredictable Thursday morning with a 3 yo.

After looking online I see what hte problem is with my blender. I will attempt to fix it this evening and if that doesn't work, I'll just buy a new blade cap. It's only $5.

Aww vino, poor B. We are renting a house in Charleston for Christmas and my B is convinced there will be snow...he's already asking to make snow angels (sorry, kiddo, you're probably going to be disappointed). I am really hoping for some snow here this winter, or we may have to go to the mountains. Or just come visit you

yummeecookee enjoy your day! Sounds heavenly...trying on clothes without having to entertain bored kids in a dressing room--I've forgotten what that's like! wedding C is going to be a ballerina. Hoping to reuse the tutu for her birthday. This is what I'm thinking (over a pink leotard/onesie):

I'm out at 1 today and I can't wait. I had some flex time built up that I'm going to lose if I don't use it. I am hoping for a nap.
C and I are going for a pizza and ice cream date tonight. He's super excited. I will not eat either of those but my mom made me some homemade crab cakes so I will pick those up for my dinner.

wedding how adorable, a mom &Lo date, I'm going to remember this! vino aw that's to cute, albeit totally toddler insanity 😉. @kamikaziartist I'm so sorry for you, I read something the other day about treating it with vodka, do this and take a sip every now and then.

kamakaziartist boil or replace all toothbrushes and hair brushes. Spray your car/carseats. ETA: I can't remember your whole list but you'll want to treat all of your stuff too, because it spreads like wildfire. Wash backpacks, spray mattresses, basically anything that can be washed should be washed and everything else fabric should be sprayed. My mom put all of our stuffed animals in black trash bags too.

kamakaziartistFrom my sister: Keep stuffed animals and pillows in a sealed trash bag for about a week. Use tea tree oil shampoo. It keeps live away. Also can put a few drops tea tree oil in laundry.

All stuffed animals that won't fit in dryer are in trash bags taped up and in direct sun. I'm going HAM on these mofos.

Morning.
It's ugly outside. Rain all day. It's M's last day of half day. He'll be doing extended day the rest of the school year. I was hoping to get out and do something fun with him, but the weather isn't going to let us.
Just waiting on a call about my car. I hope they have figured out the problem and I can get it back today. In the mean time, I have quite a bit to get done around the house because I did nothing yesterday. Now if I could just get off this couch...

kamakaziartist... NNNOOOOOO!!! I'm so sorry. What a nightmare! Lol about work. I'd rather be a galley slave for the day. csho, oh my word. I'd be a whale. Cake is my downfall. Happy birthday, yummeecookee! I'm trying to decide what to do with my day to get the girls out of the house. My top three choices are out. My husband suggested the farmer's market. For whatever reason, that sounds so awful. And I usually love going. I am SO glad the boys are back to school. I felt like a camp director all summer, and not the nice one who enjoyed mud but the one who spent time on a platform blowing a whistle. Absence is definitely making ALL our hearts grow fonder.
