H just took the kids to the park, so I should probably get showered while they're out. I'm still half-asleep and cranky from being woken up at 4:15 by DS 2, getting him back to sleep around 5:00, and then having DS 1 wake him back up (accidentally) at 5:15.
Today I think we're going to take the kids to a nearby man-made lake for some paddleboating and lunch. H has this idea that we can also hit Target for back to school supplies, but seeing as how we're still living in a cramped hotel room I'm not sure why we would want to buy stuff that we don't need right now.
Right now sitting on the deck drinking coffee with H. Today will be cleaning and laundry, following by starting to pack for our anniversary to to Chicago this week.

I am realizing today that I haven't taken my anti-d's in a while (like maybe a week). I get in this cycle where I take them and feel like myself, so I think, "Hey, I don't need these anymore" and stop taking them and I crash and burn. I'm in the crash and burn phase now. Fortunately, while it takes a few weeks to get working when they're new, I feel the effects within a day or two when I start up again, but today's bad bad bad. But really, I don't know why I think not taking them is an option. It's just not. And I feel so much better when I'm taking them. Why do I even think like this?
Today is the last day my in-laws are here. We are going to hang out this morning and then lunch. Probably after that go to the park near our house. They are going to the hotel at the airport after dinner since their flight is at 6am tomorrow morning. Should be a nice day.

Happy birthday!! I'm at my parents house hanging out with my brother. I need to go to the grocery store on the way home, but no plans for the rest of the day.
I'm hoping to meet my friend for drinks before she flies back to NYC but the Minneapolis airport is dumb and doesn't have a single restaurant pre-security which complicates things. Is this normal or are all airports like that? I've never really paid attention.
Otherwise cleaning and laziness are my top-two tasks for the day.

Need to put away all the laundry I did yesterday, and use the occupied baskets to de-bomb-ify lucys room. We have an initiation to swim at the ILs and stay for dinner this afternoon. If DH comes too, I'm going in the pool. I'm so so so pale, haven't seen any sun this year!

Isn't Houlihan's still there? I've eaten there with people i was dropping off.
We are heading out on a bike ride soon. With my graduation money I bought a bike hitch for our car and a tagalong bike for Jack. We already have a burley cart thing for Leo.
That was three months ago and we have yet to use them lol. I blame our running schedules and H having soccer every weekend. So now we will go out on our first epic bike ride.
I'm getting my hair cut and colored this afternoon. My dad is technologically challenged and needs help with his iPad so I'll probably go over there before my appointment.

I have to do a bunch of lame stuff today - mow the lawn, laundry, grocery shop, take my car for an oil change, etc. My car started to overheat yesterday, which really concerned me since it's not at an age/mileage where I should be having problems (IMO). I hope it just needs a coolant flush or something easy.
But I am officially an old person because I went to two concerts two nights in a row and my feet and legs were DEAD last night. And then I slept til 10 AM lol.
Today is a lay low kind of day. A walk with the dog, some errands, and just hanging out at home.
We just got back from the pool. Now we are getting cleaned up for a family bbq birthday party! Luckily it's not overly hot and humid here right now I hope it stays that way.

Happy Birthday!
It has been a lazy day here so far complete with a snoozing husband and 2 dogs beside me on the couch. Trying to muster up the energy to go on a long walk despite the 90 degree heat. I am downloading a new book to listen to so maybe that will help!
