Our flight home got canceled. We couldn’t get on another one today so we’ll go home tomorrow. Meh. One more day in Florida? I’m not mad about it, lol. Luckily the ILs have HBO so it won’t mess up our GOT watching. Although it will be an hour later so that kind of sucks. But I don’t have to wake up until 8:00am tomorrow to catch our new flight.

Ahhh, I’m missing the GOT finale. I’ll be on a business trip and even though I told H to go ahead and watch without me, he said he’ll wait till I get back.
What are the odds we’ll avoid all the spoilers?? Yeah, don’t answer that ...
Also, WTF, Colorado? You’ve got SNOW in the forecast?? Do I need to pack a winter coat in May?

We've been working on financial stuff as we're close to accepting a house offer (I hope - we need them to go up some) and want to figure out exactly how much money we'd have for making an offer on our next house. I'm trying to look at a bunch of homes next week so that we can get an offer going as soon as we accept an offer here. I hate the financial aspect of all of this.

I don’t even fucking want to talk about it. We planted $400 worth of annuals and tomatoes yesterday. DH had to fully water and cover everything with moving blankets because we were under a frost advisory last night! I’ve never been so excited to leave the state as I am right now. Florida, here I come!
(And to answer your question, you probably should, the lows are damn cold all this week.)
DS1 has a stomach bug. He woke up around 2 and threw up. We basically repeated that exercise for the next two hours and ended up having to change the sheets twice. DS2 spilled his water in his bed. And he kept waking up because of us dealing with DS1. So that’s how my night was. I’m going to be really pissed if I end up with this virus.
A friend I was looking forward to seeing was supposed to come over with her kids this morning, but I obviously had to cancel that.
It is my morning to sleep in and I’m still in bed. I feel guilty about it. I never stay in bed this late, but damn am I tired. I know DH is too though. He was up as much as I was.
And I set an alarm to check in for my flight tomorrow but accidentally fell back asleep. I checked in 4 minutes late and ended up with B58. Pretty much no way I’m not in a middle seat, right? Ughhhhh.
It’s only 10:17, but so far this has been a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.

I’m sorry you’re having a tough day, isabel, but thanks for the on-the-ground report. Winter coat is at the ready. And I hope your DS feels better soon!

A new Kroger opened in town this week so I went to check it out yesterday. It’s huge! It even has a wine bar. You can drink wine while grocery shopping!
I applied to 2 jobs this weekend, and am considering applying for a third. I don't love the location, but I'm sure it would be a big pay bump.
I have officially given up on our kitchen renovation, at least for the time being, and I feel like such a failure. But we just couldn't seem to get any traction to move it forward, and I just don't have the time to dedicate to any more meetings with contractors and kitchen planners and appliance shopping, and and and. It was seriously affecting my mental health and I needed to pull the plug on it. Our kitchen is hideous and embarrassing, though, and I'm so upset that I can't get a renovation off the ground. Also, we cut three holes in the drywall to see if we could remove soffits, thinking that all the drywall would be coming down soon anyway. So now we have to spend time patching and repainting a kitchen that is going to look awful either way.
Ahhh, I’m missing the GOT finale. I’ll be on a business trip and even though I told H to go ahead and watch without me, he said he’ll wait till I get back.

I haven't watched last week's yet as we are just now on our drive home from vacation but managed to avoid all spoilers so far.
I’m having a horrible time finding a new PCP. Not sure why they all say they are accepting new patients, but it’s 4 months to get an appointment. I have to get meds transferred over as I’m almost out as I’m past due for my yearly PCP appointment. (Insurance has swapped 3x in the last 6 months - most recently May 1st so I couldn’t pick one prior as I had no clue if they’d be covered). my oncologist wants the boring stuff dealt with by PCP as it needs checked more often than I see her- vaccine boosters, TSH, & BP so well within primary scope. The last practice I called, the receptionist told me I needed to just go see the specialist if i was having issues. Which makes no sense - yeah make a specialist appointment, drive into Philly, deal with parking, pay specialist copay for a MMR booster. I’m tempted to take the day off work and drive to a different state to see my old one instead.
DH leaves for Italy this afternoon- so he’s missing GOT. If I miss it I’ll have to avoid everyone at work tomorrow, so that’s not happening.

I just took E to swimming lessons and it was legit 10000 degrees in the pool center. I thought I was going to die. Sweat was rolling down my back--and I was in capris and a sleeveless shirt! OMG. I am making H take him to the last lesson in 2 weeks b/c I just can't hack it. And then, we stopped to get lunch, and some dumb douchebag in a minivan the size of Ohio decides to randomly start backing up IN THE LINE and almost hit me. I LAID on the horn to get him to stop (he was 2 inches from smashing into me), and I got out of the line to park and go into the place (the line had at least 10 cars in it). As I passed by his car (the parking spaces were across from the DT line), HE glared at ME like I'M the one who did something wrong. Roll down your window, m-fer, if you're so damn brave to be staring me down like that. Ugh, I'm NEVER going back to that location again--I swear there's some problem every single time and I'm over it.

I never watch until Monday night and we always avoid spoilers. Just don’t go on social media and you’re fine.
isabel my 3 yr old DS had that TH night into Fri morning. Up barfing from 11pm-2am. And then totally fine upon waking up at 7am. WTF kid?! H and I were dragging. And to make it even worse we were without a working washer until 12pm Fri afternoon. ALL the towels, sheets, blankets and stuffed animals lived in our garage until then.
Also, our appliances are dying. They're all original to our TH unit (17 years old) so not totally unexpected, but still. We replaced the washer and dryer on Friday and then the dishwasher broke and the hot water heater is limping along. So we are currently hand washing all the dishes.
We got another offer on my mom’s condo. It’s still a lot lower than we’re asking and it’s a firm offer so we can’t negotiate. But it’s a cash offer so no appraisal. My sister and I just want to be done with this whole thing so we are thinking of taking it. The realtor is going to email us an idea of what we would both walk away with and then we’ll decide.

Thankfully, this appears to be exactly that. He was pretty out of it this morning and clearly not feeling that great, but no puking. He perked up around 11 and is acting totally normal now. He's irritated that I haven't let him eat anything but toast and crackers. All the bedding and towels and what not are finally clean, drying the last load now.
We got an email from daycare on Thursday letting us know there was a stomach bug going around. I'm really crossing my fingers none of the rest of us get it. Especially DS2.
I am so annoyed at my sister. She, BIL, and their 1-year old all came down with a cold last weekend. She passed it off as allergies when dropping my nephew off with my parents for their usual Monday babysitting appointment, but nope it was a cold. Now my dad is sick (with a Mancold), my mom is worried about getting sick, and they're both supposed to join us in Disney in a week. I swear, if they're sick/get us sick on this trip I am going to burn something of my sister's down. She does this way too often because she and BIL don't want to take time off from work, but it means that my 70+ year old parents and her 80+ year old in-laws (who provide free childcare) have do do sick baby duty and then also get sick themselves.
I’m so over my white trash neighbors. I was really hoping they would move.
I’m about to send a passive aggressive email to our HOA board about sitting on architectural applications (including ours). I’m so over them not doing anything to enforce the few rules we have AND we have neighbors moving. I told DH the new people could be those HOA rule followers 100% and then the board will be really screwed.
Our asshole neighbors have a new dog and they seem to think letting it hang out by itself outside all night barking is cool. So I got woken up at 1:10 am, about 20 minutes later when I was finally drifting off again, and off and on from 7 am to 9 am, and my H mentioned getting woken up several times too, but he wasn't awake at any of times I was (he was snoring). This has been happening multiple times a week for the past couple of weeks, and I'm going to have to speak to them about it, but they already think I'm an noise complaining bitch, and I already think they are inconsiderate asshats, so it's not going to go well.
They've had dogs before, but smaller ones that they kept inside unless they were out with them, but this one is a German Sheppard (or a mix, it looks very German Sheppardy) so I'm guessing it's larger size is why they are letting it stay out? I don't know, I'm just sick of being woken up.

Walked in to the apartment from vacation and the hot water tank went bad, caved in our laundry room ceiling one floor below it, and found out that FIL/SIL noticed a leak days ago when they fed our cats and didn't say anything. I'm trying not to kill anyone.
Nonny, I'd just call the non-emergency number to complain every time you get woken up. I'm sure there's a noise ordinance they're in violation of. If your local police take it seriously, they shouldn't have a problem hearing it to be able to warn/fine them.
