I won’t blow up the thread all day guise, I promise. But I also had to come in and say that B told me she wished C was a girl so they could do ballet together. I’m a bit LOL on that but also encouraged her to make friends w her classmates. Not for a ballet partner, but Josie asks me for a "girl baby" every day.

Hiii! Laaaazy day here. I'm drinking coffee and the kids are playing. We have a Christmas festival late this afternoon. Josie wants to decorate the shrubs outside so early might try to run to Michaels to buy some bows.

I just looked for nutcracker tickets but they are all more than I want to spend. Why is nothing cheaper than $30 for these things? Ahem. First of all, $30 is not expensive for nutcracker tickets. Secondly, ticket revenue is how all the dancers, tech, crew, costumers, etc get paid. Do you know how many people it takes to put on a production? Not just nutcracker but anything in the theater? There are also quite a few people that need to be paid that have nothing to do with the production including security and EMS that are required to be there. Third, funding for the arts is pretty much non existent these days. Therefore everything comes down to ticket sales. Why is it no one thinks twice about spending $100 on a sporting event but $100 is way too much for the arts?

I’m at urgent care because my eye has been hurting me for the past three days, ever since i wore my contacts. I don’t have vision insurance though until Jan 1 so I’m hoping urgent care can help me. It hurts every time i blink! The kids and mh are at Home Depot doing one of those kids build something events. It’s free once a month. I’ve been taking them the past few months. O loves it. kim22 Is the party up by me by chance?!

I mostly wear glasses but i wore contacts two days in a row last week and on the second day i was helping my boss move dusty boxes. When i got home i took my contacts out and it’s been hurting ever since.

Morning! We’re relaxing and watching n play with her new dollhouse. She loves it! Her excitement opening it was just the best. I also have cakes in the oven and will decorate them tonight.
We’re going to head in to MOA and go to the rainforest cafe and crayola experience for the day. We might stop at a winter parade on our way back home tonight.

Medical covered it though.

So the dr put some dye in my eye and looked for a scratch and didn’t see anything. He thinks it’s an allergic reaction because there is inflammation.
It makes sense because the day i helped move stuff, my wrists started to break out in a rash from all the dust and i was rubbing that eye. I’m pretty sure i have a dust allergy.
I’m not sure why my eye didn’t heal though because my arms were fine the next day.

Tmi ahead..... I just got off the phone with the nurses line and have an urgent care appointment at 920. I haven't pooped in 48 hours and I am in extreme pain. Dh is going to be watching LO and I hope I get done before he has to go to work. I got a male nurse who was telling me to drink more liquids. Which I already am and then he's like sit in a warm bath. I told him I did that for two hours yesterday and I am currently in one now. He's like well I can't give you anything so let's make an urgent care appointment.

I'd pay hundred to see your Nutcracker tgrimes! 😉 Lol. You’re so sweet. I need to see if I can find my old videos. M ruined the only dvd I had of me doing Sugar Plum. I used to keep videos of at least 1 show from each concert and from the ballets I choreographed. I have no idea where they are. 😞

My stepdad cracks me up. I got a thank you card from him in the mail yesterday. Knowing his deep, slow Brad voice makes it even better. And he's not being sarcastic or joking. He's truly amazed at the wonder of Amazon and grateful for me ordering for him. 😁

I was in a mood coming into work this morning because...work. I forgot that in December the General greets us at the gate and gives us candy canes which was really nice. It was definitely a pick-me-up.

Cadence woke me up at 6:30 to ask if she could open the #3 box on her calendar. I told her, no today is #2 and you can't open it until the sun wakes up. She promptly fell asleep in my bed for another hour and a half.
Just got back from gymnastics, then we'll eat lunch and she has her dance recital this afternoon. It is at a park and they are apparently having a holiday market days. Cadence's dance class is part of the entertainment. Should be interesting.

Dhs family is so annoying. His dad had a double knee replacement on Monday. We are on the Cape now to visit and fine out he had a heart attack on Thursday morning. His moms like"I didn't want to text you that". No lady, that's phone call worthy!! He's fine now and got a stint. We should be able to visit.
I wonder if they called his brother. I bet she did. I'm so annoyed but don't want to vent to Dh because I'm sure he is too.

Dh brought home the Sinterklaas presents my inlaws bought the kids. And with the risk of sounding like a spoiled brat, what is the freaking point of asking me for a wish list if you’re going to buy plastic junk anyway? They know we like quality toys and do not want plastic junk in our house, they’ve been doing this for years, I’m so tired of it.

At the emergency vet waiting on x-rays. Ran over my mom's puppy with the golf cart. Pretty sure she'll never forgive me if something happens to this dog.
