It sucks. You are getting a good amount. But then we get ice on top. Ugh.

I haven't heard of the chicken pox vaccine. Is it younger than we are?

Yes. We didn't have it when we were kids. 

The vaccine wasn't licensed for use in the US until the mid-90's, so kids born in the 80's and early 90's wouldn't have gotten it.

Remember a while back when there was a thread about birth control and I said I hated mine? Well I talked to DH and we agreed to try FAM/condoms again. It has been about 3 weeks and I can't believe the difference in myself. I actually like my husband now, and I don't think it is just because my sex drive has returned. I wish I had just started back with FAM instead of getting on the pills to begin with.

I had that happen to me 4 years ago.  I was on Nuvaring for a few years and had a slowly declining sex drive and finally realized it might be my birth control causing it.  I stopped my BC and the change was like black and white.  After the next kid, I'm considering a non-hormonal IUD, but I'm not planning on going on hormonal BC again if I can help it.

I've been slightly obsessed with the whole tiny house movement; in the same way I like to watch Hoarders.
I just can't wrap my head around it.
If you want to live tiny, buy a 500sf home. Not 120.

I always recoil in horror when people with small children want to live in a tiny house.  Or just children in general.  I feel like that basically will make your sex life extinct.  And also greatly increase the likelihood of everyone murdering each other.

Oh my gosh. I just got up to feed C and I looked outside on my way over here. Very heavy/wet show is falling tonight and the tree branches and hanging practically straight down with the weight. We cut down the trees that hung over our house this summer (thank goodness), but I wonder if we'll lose any other trees.

Depends, I would look for breaks and maybe call a tree guy. Heavey snow is bad, but freezing rain does horrible damage. My in-laws lost a lot of trees with a bad ice storm.

Well this has been a morning full of awkward...

I'm setting up at the farmers market right now and an older woman is subbing in next to me. She came over to ask if she could borrow my cart while I was still using it and I was all, "Um, I mean, sure, yeah, I guess, yeah." Then she was all, "No, that's ok," and walked away. Then I was walking out to my car behind another vendor who didn't see me and she walked up to her husband and had a "I'm going to rip your balls off" kind of argument with him. I managed to look very non-attentive as I walked past.

And none of this is helped by the fact that I have sky high anxiety this morning. I had a half awake dream last night that a stranger was in C's room and I couldn't get to her. I still haven't been shake the feeling.

Oof.

We had 2 kid-free nights out in a row this week thanks to MiL visiting. I honestly don't think that has happened since R was born. We had a fundraiser event in the city Thursday night then took the train in and ate a fancy dinner last night. Ill be dreaming about that food until we can do it again.

[mc13]

MapleMe that is my nightmare! When I check the video monitor at night, I always worry that I'll see some creep in R's room with her.

MH started packing today. He was going to tackle the hutch in the dining room.

Anyone want to guess how many items actually got packed in a box?

[MapleMe]

Holy moly. C has developed this ear splitting banshee scream for when she's upset. It's intense.

[Crisco Salad]

How is it only 10 am?? This seems like the longest day ever.

[Crisco Salad]

We started watching this is us last night. Will probably watch several more if J decides to nap today.
