Also, has the fidget spinner craze hit your areas? These things sell out in one day around here. Both of my older kids have one and I love to play with them.

They are not allpwed in my classroom because they were being abused. I hate those damn spinners!

Ugh. Here too. My rule was that they could be used if they were out of site. But the principal gave them a big nope. So now I take them

I am so weak. My body feels like I have the flu. I'm canceling on a party this afternoon, because I can't drag myself out the door.

I'm sorry, the first one is so so awful, the next should be better though.

Do you know of any supplements I can take to make it better? Is my body lacking something since I feel this way?

It's band trip to Dollywood day. Well, E has been sick, so the plan was to drive there, drop A off with H, get our free teacher passes then I would take E home. He puked in the car 5 minutes before we got there. So I stripped him and cleaned what I could. Then we did the season pass thing and bailed.
I just got a call from H that A fell and hit the back of her head on the concrete. She's ok. But I need a break.

I totally jokingly asked A if she had any loose teeth. She let me check and she has one, was not expecting that! Probably have awhile until it goes anywhere though, because it's just barely loose.

Maybe you have low iron? I can get super low iron sometimes during my period.

I will have some red meat tonight! Thanks for the suggestion!

Both kids who rsvp'ed came to Caleb's party, and they actually all had fun. Because there were only 4 of them, they never had to wait in line on the gym circuit, so they were all pretty tired.

And it was my first, and probably last, time using the Pillsbury Funfetti cake mix. Maybe it's just that mix or because I'm so used to making cakes from scratch, but it was so dry!

[imimahoney]

Corinne just pooped on the potty, WOOHOOO!

That's good that they all had fun!

When I use a box mix, I usually add an extra egg and sub milk for half of the water and that takes care of the dryness issue

I actually find the box mixes to be really great! I love funfetti

We spotted Mouse poop in the living room couch and I'm pretty sure it's from when my mom watched the boys when we were having c bc we only eat in kitchen
I need a new ride on lawnmower like yesterday BC ours broke
We need a new dehumidifier in the basement I could go on fir days

I started diet today
Life isn't fair

We just watched Jackie and holy shit, by far one of the most powerful preformances I have ever seen. Natalie Portman was out of this world.

Totally agree, I was upset she didn't get more recognition. I actually forgot I wasn't watching the real Jackie during it.

She should have won every single award. I felt every emotion the entire time, she was mystifying.

Benjamin's party is today - family for pizza lunch at noon, and neighborhood kids at 3:00 for cake and playing outside. I haven't made the cake yet! Or finished cleaning the house for that matter.

[ktstorm]

Oh and I may be crazy because the neighborhood kids often play until 6:30/7:00 or whenever parents drag then in for dinner. So I bought two family packs of hot dogs, and was going to offer to feed any of the kids still playing?

[imimahoney]

My school is undergoing a week long accreditation visit starting today. I need to go in for my interview at 1:30. I am so nervous.

[chirpchirp]

Early start to this morning (5:00 a.m.). It's going to be a long day.

We have a lot of cleaning/decluttering to do today. I'm wondering how much will actually get accomplished with the kids being crazy

[onehitwonder]

W's party is in just over 2 hours (need to leavw in 1.5) and I am trying to consume all the coffee and get motivated. There will be 35 kids and 35 adults and I am still stressing about having enough food. At least it will all be over before noon & I am headed straight for a margarita! Bad weather forcast for this afternoon.

I've got the last day of vacation blues.

[Deleted]

H always seems to wake up earlier when he stays up later. Sleep in child!

I'm going out to brunch with my sister, mom, and grandma for an early Mother's Day today! I'm excited to try the restaurant, they have really good looking mimosas.

[TrudyCampbell]

Tea party day!!! I get so anxious about parties!

I'm getting a blowout because I'm a brat and want to look pretty . Is 9:15am too early for a free mimosa??

No judgement on the blowout OR mimosa. If you feel pretty and have a little buzz going, it's going to help you relax and enjoy a little more.

Thanks
My skin is breaking out so much right now and I feel gross so I needed a little something!

[chirpchirp]

TrudyCampbell , you always look gorgeous. Enjoy the party today!

onehitwonder and ktstorm, good luck with your parties too!

[TrudyCampbell]

Woo for good hair

[creamsiclechica]

We had a great two days so far on vacation, but it has been downpourijng all night long and is supposed to all day today too, and makes a lot of our outside plans a wash. I'm hoping we can still do something. Mud here is no joke though in heavy rain lol

[thedahliharpa]

We WON the raffle at the school gala. Free registration for both kids! Cha-Ching!
Also won 2 silent auction items.
A afternoon for H and a friend to bake with H's teacher and the head of the after school program. We also won babysitting by her teacher/our dear friend from last year. I can't wait for the girls to come home and find out.

[steph196]

[teamhayes]

Just bought a new ride on mower
I feel old
