So I'm working a 6th day. A walk was scheduled at 700 this morning and Boss L told Boss B not to invite me because they can do it. Now neither of them can go so I'm getting 6 day pay. I'm only going in for the walk so it's nbd.

Morning and happy Friday! It's just me and the kids today so I need to run to the grocery store and the post office, and I'll probably take them out to lunch. We had a microwave delivered and installed yesterday afternoon. It's like an alien invention in my house. I warmed my coffee up in it, and I've been looking at mug cakes to make for dessert for the kids.

My abs hurt from the ab work outs I've been doing. That means they're working, right?!
I think I'm taking a half day, I need to mow the back yard for the party and get his cakes baked. Both things become 10 times easier if the kids aren't there.

FFFC: my microwave probably gets more use than my stove/oven. Lol.

My friend doesn't have a microwave and she's never used her dishwasher. She hand washes everything. EVERYTHING.

My dishwasher is used for Tupperware storage. We had a microwave growing up, and it never got used (except to defrost a frozen bagel or make hot water for tea) When I moved into this townhouse in 04, and got new appliances, I didn't even consider adding one because I didn't have a need for it.

The only way I'd never have q microwave or oven is if I knew some sort of Mary Poppins sorcery.

Morning all! I have another FFFC. My kid woke up on the WRONG side of bed today. Cranky! She had a 99.1 temp, which I know technically isn't a fever and day care doesn't send them home till 100.4....but I gave her a Motrin and sent her to day care knowing she wasn't feeling her best. But I HAVE to take care of something at work today. Once I get it done, she can be sick and I can go get her.

I bought an iPad Pro yesterday. I like it! We have a laptop at home that seldom gets used. I've always just used my phone to do all my internet things (it's an iPhone 6S Plus, so bigger screen). But it's nice to do things with a bigger screen.

I can see not having one. My parents have never had a dish washer. But having it and not using it?! Why?!?!?! It makes life so much easier.

Morning all. Just starting the day with hot coffee and breakfast with B, he's watching Super Why but talking in between trying to convince me that he ALWAYS yawns with his mouth closed.
I'm going to miss our breakfast chats.

Morning! We are going to visit my dad and step mom today. It's about an hour and a half drive to where they are. I haven't decided exactly when I want to leave yet. The girls are eating their breakfast right now.
I used to hate hand washing dishes (house I grew up in didn't have a dishwasher) and vowed I would never do it again. Then we lived with my ILs, and my MIL had all sorts of rules about which things have to be hand washed (like her pots and pans) and I got into the habit. Now I hand wash at least something every day, on top of running the dishwasher.

We have someone coming out to look at it on Monday, but we're planning on buying all new appliances when we do the kitchen anyway. Do not like handwashing everything though.

Dulls the blades.

My boss resets his watch every day. I don't watch. Are you supposed to do that? I'm confused.

We didn't have a microwave growing up and so it took me forever to get into the habit of using one when I finally did have one! I think I'd go insane not having a dishwasher. I looove the dishwasher.

Team Microwave and Dishwasher. I handwash pots/pans and good knives but all else goes in. DH likes to handwash all the things and then leave them to dry on the counter, which drives me crazy.

Friday! Decent morning here. It is almost cool here! I need to do a big clothes clean out for the whole family to prepare for fall. Not much new here, workity work. Didn't pack a lunch as usual. I may go down to my car and try to clean it out at some point today, it's still in post road trip disaster mode.

Morning! I had to go pick up part of the baby gift from an embroidery shop, so we did that and got donuts while we were out. C managed to poach B's donut off his plate, which was kind of hilarious. She lifted it up to her mouth and tried to take a bite like she does it every day--she is her mother's daughter.
Once DH gets home this afternoon I'm heading out for a mani/pedi.
