Thursday Things and Stuff

[penguin129]

DH had his interview at the school in our town today. The principal said he wouldn't be able to decide anything for a while because my husband was his first interview. He also basically told my H he should've taken the offer that was already on the table from the other school. DH and I decided he should take the job he was offered Tuesday even though it isn't his first choice. We can't be picky right now. He called the school, but the principal wasn't in yet. Fingers crossed the principal stood by his word.

Fingers crossed for you and your H penguin129! Job hunting is so stressful.

The kids and I are having a lazy morning. They are playing in their water table right now. Tonight we are going out to a nice dinner downtown to celebrate my moms retirement. The restaurant is really close to some nice swings and green spaces so the kids can run around too. I am so excited my mom is retiring!

Fingers crossed penguin129!

We went out to breakfast this morning and hit up the grocery store. DD fell asleep in the car so I'm leaving her because otherwise naptime will he a disaster. I'm not sure what we will do with the rest of our day. I may talk my husband into going to the zoo for a bit. He works the next 3 days so I'm enjoying the company while I have it

Fingers crossed the principle is in today and sticks to his word @ penguin129

I got a massage this morning. I am eating now, then it's back to the grindstone of getting stuff done around the house. So glad to finally see the light at the end of this tunnel.

I need to get things done around the house but I put it off because my mom was coming to get us so I could help her with their pool. Well that was supposed to be an hour ago. Now it's time for DS to take a nap and he is beyond cranky. I know the minute I lay him down she will say she is coming, then will get mad when I tell her sorry too late.

I don't understand why people don't get that my kids still take a nap at the same time every day. Sure there are days here and there it doesn't happen but 98% of the time from 1-3 is nap time at our house.

My ILs are the same way. They think everything revolves around them and get very annoyed when we won't adjust nap times for them. We do do it if there is a reason but their being selfish is not a reason.

penguin129, I hope the other principle kept his word about the job offer!
3timemom, I agree, messing with nap time is something you just don't do.

I can't wait until after 5 when I can leave the house (we have an ac repair guy scheduled to be here sometime before 5)! I think DD and I will walk down to the farmers market and get some yummy zucchini muffins!

I've been sort of AWOL the last week or so!  My wrist is still hurt (guessing overuse injury from my part time job - massage therapy).  I didn't work last weekend and won't this weekend.  If it's not feeling mostly better early next week I'm calling for a referral to an orthopedic doctor.  Blah.

We had to leave a playdate/park due to a meltdown for the first time today.  B turns two in about a month, so I guess that's just the age.  I handled it well, though, so I'm happy about that!

Just found out one of my BFFs is moving to Hawaii for her husband's job for 4-6 months, in about 3 weeks.  B will miss her daughter in his Sunday school room, for sure!

B is taking his longest nap of the week right now, and I'm happy.  I actually should wake him up now so he'll still go to sleep relatively quickly tonight.  But it's so nice and quiet and calm!!

I'm making some good progress with my therapist, and we have some goals to work toward moving forward.  Dropping down to 1/month now!
