Sorry, I'm not trying to say terrorism is cool or anything. 9/11 happened within a couple months of moving to the tri-state area and we all knew people who died that day. But I also live a few miles from Sandy Hook school, and these same tools are anti gun regulations and instead yell about better mental health coverage... Then do their best to dismantle health insurance coverage for millions. I just CANNOT with the stupidity today.
tallblonde - Yes Jared is Jewish. The Nation just had an excellent article focusing on the US indifference towards anti-Semitism leading up to WW2 (and it's a good primer on the tightening quotas our government used to keep them out when they needed us the most) and his grandmother is actually referenced.
I'm sorry about your Dad. I don't talk politics with my Dad because I don't want to hate him. Sadly my once progressive Mom has lost all ability to think for herself and now parrots his crazy talk.

I will need to look into that other list you mentioned. He's clueless. It seems like it is Bannon though controlling him and on the world destruction route.
I try to avoid politics with my dad but he provokes it. They called I think to tell me he was sick and had to go to the ER yesterday for a reaction, but the first thing he asked was if I was tired from the march last weekend and went downhill from there. By the time they told me about the hospital, I was too fed up to care, he's clearly fine.
Morning! I am watching the monitor while Chase rolls around the crib. I highly doubt he's falling back asleep at this point. Hopefully he's in a better mood than yesterday.
Not much planned today aside from grocery shopping and normal Sunday chores. This weekend feels short and oddly unsatisfying.
wineallthetime glad you get to go today! Have fun! And I finally figured out who you are on FB!
I finally got a decent night's sleep last night, so I feel like I'm on the downhill side of this crap! I took my dog to the vet for her 6 month heartworm preventative shot then dollar general...I'm completely exhausted now.
Nothing else but laundry on the agenda.
Lol! I love that you didn't know even though we are friends!

So hungover and I think I got the stomach bug L had. Trying to keep a little Gatorade down. I wish I could go back in time and stop 4 drinks sooner lol.
Morning. I just woke up at 10:20 😳 I did get up at 6 and 8:30 to nurse C, but still...apparently I needed the sleep.
B seems to finally be feeling a bit better; his appetite has perked up. Even in just a few days of being sick, I can tell he's lost weight, his little ribs are more prominent
DH and I may try and see a movie this afternoon. He's going to be in CA for work this week so it would be nice to have an adult outing.
Morning! DH left a little bit ago to go to church and I'm hanging with the girls. S has a fever so she's a little crabby. I don't think we will do much today but I'm going to be doing more painting this afternoon.
lfigge vent away, I would be frustrated with both my mom and sister in that situation. We see my parents a lot so I try to be conscientious when my sister comes to visit and give them plenty of time together...this is a good reminder to make sure I do that.

Leaving in a little bit to go to the movies with a friend. She said I needed to contact her husband because he thinks she's cheating. I told her we'll just take a picture together while we're there as proof.

Um, that's kind of odd. Has she actually given him reason to be concerned, or is he paranoid or gaslighting?
It's my typical Sunday...working. Thankfully it's been relatively ::knocks on wood:: qu**t. I just can't bring myself to actually type it out, if I do I know chaos will ensue.
Kids only lasted in their beds until 10:30 for C and 11 for H. This morning H woke up at 4:30 and said in an accusatory voice 'Mom, I sleep in MY bed!' Apparently he didn't remember he's the one that came to my bed 😉. Ah well, it's going to be a work in progress.

I think it's a great point. You're much more likely to die from losing your healthcare or a gun, but let's rage about brown people. Let's target people based upon who they pray to. I'm disgusted. Nonniedee (not going to tag her bc she has her own shit) on Parenting doesn't know if her H will be let back into this country. He has a job, an apartment, a toddler and an infant here in NY. She's a SAHM in NYC. Then what? He is no different than anyone else's SO, he's just from a different place. I don't know how anyone can defend this bullshit. Pro-life, my ass. The only lives they are for are ones that think and look just like themselves.

Vent away lfigge. I wish we had family closer to help out sometimes and I'd be just as annoyed at someone taking advantage of it at the cost of taking them away from time with me and my child.
I rolled my eyes so hard at that post klongoria11. Are you guys close friends? LOL at you talking to her husband beforehand. How awkward that would be. I can't even imagine how that conversation would begin.
PTing here. No accidents since 7am! We did take an hour to run to the grocery store, and I put a pull up on Josie. Question: I can do another full day tomorrow, but on Tuesday she has school from 1230 to 3. Do I do pants-free before and after school?
I'd do a pull up at school and continue what you're doing at home since it seems to be working. Great job, J!

Hi!
We're just getting moving here. M skipped his nap yesterday and went down earlier than usual. Of course, he wakes at 545 requesting milk, cheerios, and a show. So I got up, set him up in my bed, and tried to go back to sleep. It was broken sleep from then until around 10. I'm tired.
We have a birthday party to go to today and nothing else on the agenda. I work early this whole week, so I need to get to the grocery store at some point. I'll probably be making PW baked ziti tonight. It makes a lot, so it should get us through Tuesday night at least.
Hi! My aunt is coming to watch the two little ones and I'm taking Giovanna to an ice skating birthday party. I haven't ice skated in probably 15 years. This should go well.
Lilac26 we decided to go see Hidden Figures. We both need the break but especially me (the only time I've left the house in the last 3 days was a quick grocery store run with both kids).
guster go J! If she has another good day tmrw, I'd do a p-u or underwear on Tues. You can always go back to bottomless if you need a reset (we did with B for a couple days at one point).

My heart breaks more and more with each passing minute.
Will Trump voters never be ashamed? Unless and until I start to see any of them condemning these actions, I have to assume they're fine with them.
They have some kind of fucking nerve getting upset about being called racist. If the shoe fits...
I don't think I can ever forgive them for supporting this deranged asshole.
@lizb, definitely don't feel underwear ready. Maybe next week. That seems like a very big step.
I hear you. I kept B in pull ups for school, in particular, for the first month after he went back from summer break, just in case. His teacher finally told me to make the switch full-time when he figured out he was essentially wearing a diaper

It's heartbreaking. My ultimate goal is to create a world where my child and friends can grow up and be accepted no matter who they are. It feels like their goal is to create a Nazi Germany where everyone looks and thinks the same.

I didn't even tell you about the old dude at the doctor's office the other day that complimented my "beautiful WHITE baby."

Oh, plus, let's not forget, these are the "ALL LIVES MATTER" people.
Where are they now? Refugees don't matter much, do they?
