I've contemplated the Elf because C would get a kick out of looking for him and maybe he would act better. This kid is so spoiled though and certainly doesn't need anything from Mrs. Claus. He's been talking about Christmas all year so he is very in the spirit already.

Still sick but DH came home last night and WFH today so he took C to school and I slept in. I had flex time so I came in at noon. Work has been nuts and I cannot wait for Thanksgiving break. We get Friday off and I took Monday off as well so it will be a nice long weekend. Im sorry the kids are sick again/still sick tgrimes. I hope your MIL gets some answers. I hope N feels better tallb.

We have an elf but we have never set it up. B would be absolutely terrified, he wouldn't sleep 'knowing' that something was out there moving around. I would be talking him down for a good month if we put that thing up.

I'm leaning to the elf as a decoration. Not in that he's watching you sense. Maybe he'll move around, maybe have him participate in some hijinks, but I don't like the creeper aspect of it

I thought maybe I'd get the magical 2nd nap out of L today so I could also nap. No luck, unfortunately.

We have an elf and the kids love finding him! He always shows up after dinner on thanksgiving night and brings them a letter from Santa and Christmas jammies. The letter always ask them to be good, and also to choose three toys to donate to kids in need. It’s been a good tradition, one of my favorite. We also have a wooden advent calendar that my dad made me when I was a kid. Most days I just put chocolate in it, but some days I’ll put in coins or small gifts.

lfig not sure if the docs recommended this but my BIL was given a compression sock for his clot/vein issues. I guess it had relieved a lot of his pain. He was given some compression sock after his shoulder surgery last week. He’s convinced that what caused the clots 🙄. I’m hoping the ER doc or his PCP gave him some lessons in it all so he can quit self diagnosing and realize the potential seriousness of it.

tgrimes I’m so sorry. This has to be sooo frustrating. It’s hard seeing your kids sick and not having an answer to WHY and a plan to make it better. I’m starting to wonder about environmental factors now as well. Whatever the case I hop at your next appointment (Monday?) you get some answers or a new plan to figure this out!

They brought the pre-k and preschool classes together so they could all have cupcakes with Cadence and sing her Happy Birthday.

Thanks ladies! It will be fun to wear something out of my norm. This gala is every 2 years so it always something to look forward to.
We’re on our way to a banquet for Dhs work tonight. I joked I was going to wear the pink one tonight since I️ have it. Lol I would be highly over dressed at a stuffy insurance banquet!

I know you are all dying to know if I made it to boot camp. Rest assured, I made it and L sat quietly in her stroller with a snack and stared everyone down.

Good news is H does not have HFM. The pedi thinks it’s a reaction from the vaccines.
Bad news is he has drainage from both ears so double EI. It hasn’t even been a month since tubes.

Well that's good news that he doesn't have HFM. But damn about the EI. How long can the reaction last? 6 weeks because it's a live vaccine right? I think that's what Julia's said.

I'm so annoyed.
Our leadership has decided, because they have nothing better to do and don't have the first idea how any team functions, that we need to change our business hours. There's seriously no good reason for this. We don't interact with Any outside entities. At all. Ever. Most people in my team, myself included are on an early schedule and now they want us to go mostly 9-5.

It's 5:50 and h is just now booking hotel reservations for our trip. Nothing like planning ahead...
I had an interesting afternoon. Our QC manager came back from the gym for lunch and complained of tightness in his chest and shortness of breath. I ended up taking him to the ER. His wife texted me that his EKG was fine, so they were waiting on his lab work and x-rays. I'll follow up with her later and hopefully he's been released and it's nothing.
