I'm thinking of joining the parents' advisory committee ad DD's preschool. I'm thinking it might be a good way to meet mom friends. Or it could be a terrible idea.
I got a new brand of boxed wine from Total Wine last night. I regret branching out from what I know. I feel like I should power through and drink it.
I'm hoping it will blow over soon. I am kicking myself because I probably should have just let it go.
I'm sorry your LO is getting hurt by this, but it's not your fault they can't act like adults in this. And YH is wrong. Invite your parents. It's not about the adults, it's about your kid.
DH suggested renting a hotel room for our anniversary and just sleeping without children bothering us. I'm not sure whether to take him up on it or not. With his work schedule and our other commitments it would pretty much just be the afternoon. The day before is a wedding shower for the wedding he's in in November, so we need to make an appearance. And he has to be at work at 7:30 am the next day...
I'm sorry @martini. It's sad adults can't put their feelings aside to celebrate your son. And it's not fair your family is being punished because of it. I hope things blow over soon.
Lockdowns are the suck and speaking from experience most schools are hyper cautious about them now and use them with relative frequency--for understandable reason of course.
I'm sorry you're having to deal with that so early privacy
My mom just went through training for an active shooter last week. She says it's different now and that locking down and waiting is a last resort. I am terrified just thinking about it.
I say go for it athn64. Mh and I did something similar last year for our anniversary. We went out to dinner at a restaurant we could walk to and then hung out a little bit at the hotel bar. It was nice to have that time to reconnect just us two.
I like the concept. But we have to be home by 7 to get the kids and $$ for the room seems silly. And I'll still have to pump every two hours, so it'll be more DH sleeps, I attempt to nap in between sessions.

If you waited a week or two would the scheduling work better? I'd wait until you could do dinner and sleep late.
If only. DH just had someone quit at work so he's working 6 days a week. And then he has a conference in CA mid September. Which I would totally go with if we had someone to watch the kids all 4 days. But we don't.
If DH could take the next day off too... but that's not going to happen.

Ok I change my mind and agree with this. Or use the money to go out for a really fancy dinner and drinks.

That... Does not sound restful.
That's where my brain is heading. If we could actually stay the night, I'd be all in.
That's just it. He wants to pay for early check in and then check out same day. So we'd be picking the kids up at 7pm. Not 7 am.
Wut.
My mom is watching them. She has to work the next day. As far as I know, since he's the one dealing with times and everything, he asked for her to watch them just until their normal bedtime. I'll go clarify that I've got this right though. BRB.
