FWP I opened up a Sauvignon Blanc and am now wishing I had opened up a red instead.

I ordered pizza almost 2 hours ago. They said an hour for delivery. I called a half hour ago and they said it was on it’s way. We live like a mile a way.
I’m so freaking hungry. It’s almost bedtime and the kids haven’t eaten. They are doing surprisingly well tho. Better than me at this point. Give. Me. My. Pizza.

Very cute, but TOO EARLY for Santa! Oh I know. It’s classic Christmas sprawl. I am normally like Nordstrom...one holiday at a time. We didn’t seek him out, but we had time to kill waiting for B’s candle to set (I’m sure that’s by design) and there was this picture-perfect Santa with no line! It was freezing here today and that Yankee Candle Village was so darn festive, they sucked us in!

We had a similar dinner disaster slenle. We ordered through Grubhub and the food came without utensils and the hotel took a half an hour to get us some. Food was cold and I filled up on bread so I hardly ate.

tgrimes woo hoo to getting in! Hoping she's just super backed up and miralax does the trick. I totally puked while super constipated when pregnant last year. Also can MH get that work schedule?? I actually think a staggered schedule is the key to managing school later on, so hopefully it works out well. MH being gone 7-7 is the opposite of helpful.

slenle glad you got your pizza! Mine was 10-15 min. late the other night while DH was gone and I was decidedly hangry. Two hours is insane.

Fffc: I️ used to not buy screw top wine bc I️ thought it was cheap. Now I️ hate buying the corked bc I’m lazy. I️ will drink all the screw top before I️ need a wine opener.
ETA both wines I️ bought today are corked. 😩

I'd delegate a couple things to him. My life would be so much better if Pete could take care of packing lunches. I hate packing lunches. DH didn't understand why. I explained it is because it's the last thing I have to do at night before I can finally sit down and relax so it annoys me. Yep. Exactly. And I don't dare leave it to Pete because then I would need to put out a list of what to make and he would take 3 times as long. At least. He barely knows where anything is. The school provides AM and PM snack so I have to send a note every morning letting his teacher know if I packed any substitutions or he can have all the stuff they're offering that day. Fun.

tgrimes, I'm so glad you got her in and are getting some answers! Also, I work 6:30-3 and let me tell you, it's amazing. YH is a lucky duck. I'm gone before the kids get up usually and I stop at the gym, go to the store or run home and clean on my way home before getting the kids. Yesterday I had a therapy appointment and went to boot camp before getting the kids. I feel bad for MH having to do the daycare drop off and working late. He only has to do it 2 days though since I work part time and his parents come over one day. These are my hours too and I love it but Pete works even earlier than me. So he leaves the house around 5:40, also gets off work at 3 and picks up the kids by 3:15. I fill the 3-4:30 time slot by making dinner and running errands if I need to.

cagoldi I think I forgot to mention last weekend before my neice and nephews party, I was tasked with finding a vegan dessert for one of the guests. I ended up with Oreos, which I think you have mentioned in the past as being vegan? We also brought a vegan pizza just for her. Her parents go to protests and such, you'd probably get along. Alas, I never figured out who the girl was.. ftr Harris teeter is no whole foods in terms of vegan options.

ETA both wines I️ bought today are corked. 😩 That used to be the case. A lot of wines are going to screw tops because research shows it slows down the aging process (so it keeps it fresher longer) and it’s cheaper for them. Also a case of bad corks can ruin hundreds of bottles of wine. Have you tried Meiomi? It’s a little pricier depending on where you get it, but still really good.

My mom goes to wine night with a group of ladies once a month. One of the ladies is the wine buyer for H-E-B so my mom always gives me the info on good wines to buy. I am not drinking tonight so that’s a bummer.
