FFFC: Whenever I hear someone from another country talking about some modern day things I always think to myself, "but they're from (blank) country, they don't have that". Like in my head all other countries live in the 1800's or something. Like when vino mentioned using a crockpot or nam2013 mentioned ordering things online, that's my first thought. I realize how incredibly ridiculous this is and obviously quickly correct myself but it's ALWAYS my first thought. Oh Wine..Wine,oh Wine

Sorry for the rough start xolastunicornxo, I’ve been there and it’s awful. Not even worth the ‘sleep in’. Hopefully the rest of the day is better.

The office is a shit show. Office manager sent out an email last night saying we would have a late start since we followed what the school district does. Some of us don't have work email at home, so we showed up. There was zero traffic and zero issues getting in. There was no ice. So now we are all, "where are our Friday tacos?" Office manager called to make sure our order was still being made and will go pick them up. All we care about is the tacos.

klong11 hope the tacos are gooood. Fun fact? Taco Friday is a thing in Norway, where my sister lives, most families have tacos for dinner on Friday, which is so odd, given their regular food options.

And also wineallthetime maybe it’s time to start travelling, lol. You’d be blown away by the coin washrooms in Europe, the random hours the stores are open/closed in France and Italy. The slower pace of a lot of places, and the fact that a bottle of wine is cheaper than a bottle of water in Nice, France. The world is pretty amazing 😉

Did the snow get to you tgrimes ? Are you buried or making snow angels? I'm alive! When M woke up I told her it snowed so we had to go look out the window. Then she had to tell daddy that it snowed and we had to bring brother to the door so he could see it too. It was enough to stick but it will melt away probably by lunch time.

I know a wine bar with great food and my town is over 750 years old, so full of history. Booking my flight! It'll have to be after I have this baby though because obviously I need wine. Plus, I have to be drunk to fly. It's terrifying.

Morning! I slept like crap last night. Both girls still have fevers but so far no other symptoms. So we’ll be just hanging at home today. I thought sick people were supposed to sleep in, but not my sick people because we were up bright and early. flamingo that’s so early! I think H’s last day before break is the 19th.

I was curious what you guys are wearing in this current weather (is it in the 30's?). It's not that much colder here and I'm cold in my long down coat on and I'm used to the cold!

Yes, I just read the article. It's 21 minutes long and they failed to tell the people who were coming to see Coco that it was so long. People were expecting the normal 5 minute short, instead it was long, too long. Lots of moviegoers complained. Plus, CoCo is almost 2 hours long, adding 20+ minutes to that is sometimes too much for a kid to sit through.

wedding Would you consider taking a prescription sleep aid? I’ve always had trouble sleeping and my dr prescribed my something called zapalon and I love it. I sleep like a rock when I take it, but it doesn’t make me drowsy or have any weird side effects. Like I could still wake up in the middle of the night of a kid needed me no problem. I take Trazadone, which is used for insomnia off label. I am on the max dose. It does help but not enough. I tried Ambien once and had an adverse reaction and felt like bugs were crawling under my skin for three days so I am hesitant to try new ones.

We watched it on the plane on the way home from FL, but I’m sure my kids would like to watch it again. I also want to see the Olaf movie! I mean B wants to see it....

You needed to pay to get in? I went to one in NYC when I was little. That was where my mom said this rhyme that I laugh at still and you will now enjoy:
Here I sit all broken hearted Paid to shit but only farted
You're welcome

My favorite quote from M today was when she was looking out the back door at the snow and said, "It ruined everything!"

Just what I need is to spend the rest of this pregnancy in prison!
