Thanks armpants! I didn't sleep great but that's pretty much par for the course these days.

Today i have to go to federal court to complete a juror questionnaire as I have been summons. From my understanding, I complete it and go home and wait to see if I am one of the chosen ones. We are not allowed any electronics in the bldg, including my phone, this makes me uneasy. Not in the sense that I'm that person who has to be on their phone playing at all times (I have an actual book if I need to pass time) but because what if something happens? Like kids are sick or hurt? Or drastically, what if the courthouse goes on lock down for some reason and I can't communicate with my family? Yes, in light of current events, my mind has gone there. I know it's unlikely but still. The no phone thing is not sitting well.
FWP. I will survive.

Not a FWP, RunsforWineandCarbs. Sucks that those are real issues we have to think about. I hope today goes well and fast!

A school district near me is completely closed because multiple children and parents received threatening text messages from an unknown person last night. They have closed the entire, large school system. H is a teacher in a nearby school. His school was not threatened, but I'm on edge. You guys, this is all so effed up.

So someone in my other BMB just posted the same thing as shellyr except her question was what to tell her 5 year old (who is asking lots of questions)on why there is no school. The world is a terrifying place. What would A15 do if this happened to you in a couple years? One might say that you don’t need to tell them anything. Or one might say to tell a white lie. I’m more inclined to say tell a version of the truth because if you don’t someone else (think of how many kids are in that district) probably will.

Shopping and lunch with my mom, gran, and sis in law this morning, then home to drop the kids with DH before heading to my midwife appt. This will be my first cervical check(39+2), and I'm hoping that all of these contractions are actually doing something. Why does my body seem to most confused this time, when I'd think it should most know what to do?! Also, I feel like my stomach has grown SO much in the past week, I'm feeling huge!!
Happy Tuesday!

jedi, my 4 yo walked up behind me as I was watching video of the shooting on my phone last night (I don't get to watch the news at home anymore, only kid shows) and she said what's that. I told her, it wasn't something for her to watch, that it was a news story on a terrible thing that happened in las vegas by a mean man. She asked if he was bad, I said yes he was. She asked if those people were hurt. I said yes, that mean man hurt them. She asked why. I said I don't know. She asked if daddy was there - I said no, daddy's sitting behind you (H travels to vegas all.the.time.). I then diverted her attention back to the her tv show. I think we have to be as honest as we can to our kids when it comes to these topics. I mean I won't go into the details with her but I will keep age appropriate to what she will understand. I've done a lot of thinking about this, this morning. We need something to change. But we can't continue to sit here and wait for the government to be the one responsible for making that change, in doing so we become part of the problem. I don't know how to be the change that is needed though but I can start at home. I can teach my kids right from wrong, empathy, compassion, sympathy and acceptance. I will teach them it is not suppose to be this way. I will teach them to love others and to be kind. Because I feel if we want to fix what's wrong, it's not going to be us but our future generations. We need to start now.

I usually can't post during the day because of work but I'm so shaken today. jedi, I've had 'what to do if there is an active shooter' training because of my job. H and I were discussing last night that we are going to teach our children what to do if theyare ina shooter situation. We will probably frame it more like a 'bad guy' scenario rather than a shooter scenario. I cannot even believe we are having these kinds of discussions.

Oh hai!
#4 is doing great. Two week well visit this afternoon. I'm excited to see how much he has gained, but he is still so teeny tiny! #3 is back on the potty training wagon. He likes to hold it for three hours and then tantrum if I try to have him sit. Boy is my most stubborn yet.
I'm loving the fall. I'm trying to declutter before winter comes.
My mil is a monster. /preface I recently unblocked her on fb because she was harassing my husband. When she was last here visiting, she auto saved her fb login as the default on my h's computer. Well, she uploaded pictures of #4 onto fb that I guess her sister had copied from MY fb announcement and emailed to her...because she needs the likes and to pretend like she's an involved grandma. I may have logged into her profile and set the pictures to "only me" so that they're no longer visible to her friends. Because I am petty mcpettyson.

Glad things are going well abominationsnowman! You are not petty - your mil is sneaky and I would have deleted the picture completely from her account. While thinking, let her confront me about....lol
