Mid week reports

[dreemkin]

Let's hear your randoms for the day!

[dreemkin]

We are finally (post holiday & winter of drippy, red noses) getting milestone pictures done today...for both DDs (3 &1). I'm a gluten for punishment I guess. This is going to be chaotic. I'm dressing them in their dresses from Christmas/1st birthday. Luckily, they're not TOO christmasy so hopefully people won't laugh or stare.

DH is FINALLY home after two weeks away. The next time he leaves will be for a long time, so I'm enjoying having him home...and taking full advantage and making him do a ton of shit before he leaves. Today we're getting an alarm system installed.

dreemkin, how fun! Enjoy the pictures

I still need to get V's one year photos.

I just put V down for a nap, but the neighbor is chipping trees across the street so we'll see if he actually falls asleep. Annoying!

Don't really have any plans today. It's raining and cold, so no walk or park. Maybe we'll go to the museum this afternoon.

Had an intruder drill today. It would be at the time I have the worst kid in the school...

I'm doing the least today. I fed DS a fruit pouch for breakfast & snack, and now he's napping and I'm watching tv.

Back to the office and DD is back to daycare today.

We signed a contract last week to have our kitchen renovated, and we went to look at cabinets this weekend. Yesterday our contractor reached out to DH to ask if they could move up the start date from April 10th to tomorrow. I said no. Now they are starting on Monday and I am kind of annoyed. So much more pressure now to get everything picked out and ordered and I'm still pretty sure that we will end up having them demo the kitchen and then need to stop work and wait (with no kitchen) for our materials to come in.

Enjoy your time together!!

I'm sorry! My sister has to do these and she says they're pretty intense. She is an early/special education preschool teacher and it adds extra chaos to her day. But it's good to be more prepared heaven forbid a situation should arise.

dmorgendorffer how exciting to be redoing your kitchen! Hopefully it's not too stressful and you can enjoy some of it.

badw0lf, poor little F! I hope it's teeth or that he can hold out on ear infections until your appointment

badw0lf Oh poor F! I hope it's his teeth!

Did I totally space and miss the resolution of the SF job offer for YH? Or have I forgotten? Or still waiting to hear back?

lilyelayne DH was asked to go out to SF to interview but by that point he had decided he did not want to make the move so he didn't go. I still hope he can move into a different position this year just so he can be happier at work but not moving is a relief.

I remember you saying he was against it by the time he interviewed, but didn't realize that was actually the end of it. Hope he gets a new position close to home!
