It's Friday! Yay!!
I've been running errands all morning. I still need to stop at Riteaid and shoprite. I finally bought chalk board paint to paint a wall in our hallway. I figured it will be entertaining for our young niece. It's so much cooler today so it's a house work and clean our front porch kind of day.

I'm taking the afternoon off to shop and help my mom pick out tile for her kitchen remodel. I'd love to go to the gym beforehand, but I'm not sure I can fit it in.
I'm excited I am going to a wine fundraiser tonight for the local dog rescue that we got our pup from. I am excited. But I'm still trying to figure out the logistics of it. I have volunteered to set up the event from 3-5:45, and I will have DD. So that may be fun. The event then starts at 6:30/7. So I have to get from the event to my house and drop DD off with DH and hope that she goes to bed well for him as he's never put her to bed before. Then I have to get back to the event. (I live 20 mins from the event)
MrsMB- hope you get some time to rest this weekend!!
It's hot here...highs in the 90s. I used to love the heat but it's not so fun with little kids. Can't wait for our new windows (realistically another 4+ weeks til they are installed).
Hanging outside with C while L naps and then off to the park before PM naps (and before it gets too hot). Not sure what we will do this afternoon. I need to finish DH's Father's Day card from the boys and wrap my dads present. Going to Costco and Walmart once DH is home tonight.

I forgot...DH bought me a new lens for my camera for our anniversary/my birthday! It came last night so I plan to take pictures of L when we go to the park (tried taking pictures of C but he is way too "busy" these days LOL)! Now if I could only figure out how to configure my WIFI adapter so it's easier to get the images from the camera (I no longer have a functional computer and it's normally not an issue as I use my phone for everything...but it is when I want to take pictures with our nice camera).
I need to do some work at some point this weekend, but I'm feeling really lazy this morning. I slept better last night than I usually do the night after a tattoo session, but my body is still exhausted so I'm taking it easy. H went and got donuts and coffee for breakfast and I'm catching up on The Challenge episodes.
No major plans this weekend. Going to FIL's house on Sunday, but that's about it.
luv2rn4fun I covered one of windows in foil yesterday in an attempt to keep the sun and heat out. DH was like, "whatever you want to do, crazy lady..."
Driving home through our neighborhood when I realized there was way too much water and debris on the road...storm had come through at some point. Thankfully the power outage is directly above us and not affecting us at this point. Otherwise I would be placing an order for a whole home generator this afternoon because I'm OVER IT with power outages. Internet is out right now which is annoying, but bearable.
So many hugs suzv. Thinking of you and your family. (And don't feel bad about not enjoying SAH. It's not for me, either. The baby / early toddler stages are tough because they can't entertain themselves. It's much better now at 2+ years old! I don't mind staying home occasionally now.)
We saw the heartbeat! I am so relieved. At first she didn't see an embryo, and then she saw this tiny little thing with a flicker, and she was able to capture the heartbeat. Phew. That was nerve-racking.
I do have a bleed so I have to be on pelvic rest for a week (she told me to stay sitting with my legs elevated this week...like I am somehow able to do that as a mom of a 2-year-old. Ha.)
We are going to a local fest tonight for some food and music. Tomorrow I have to wake up at 5 work a work event. Ugh. So early!
Just landed in Seattle but stuck on the plane for a while while we wait for our gate to open up. Not sure what we will do here, we are basically winging this whole vacation which is SO not like us. Lol. I usually make an hour by hour trip itinerary.
krystee !!! Hooray! So happy for your good news. Good luck resting.
suzv don't feel bad, I am a stay at home mom and suck at it. It's hard and lonely and frustrating.

((Hugs)) suzv. What amaranth said, a lot of days I totally suck at it, especially when sleep is going rough. No patience when I am sleep deprived, which sadly has been going on way too long.
ewall- we have every window covered and blackouts in the rooms. DH even hung a blanket in one very oddly shaped window to block the sun (mainly so it doesn't destroy our furniture. Not crazy at all 😀
luv2rn4fun- she was pretty good for him. He played with her for about 45 mins did bedtime routine and laid her in bed (7:00). She cried for less then 5 mins and slept until midnight. Yay! Sleep training is helping a lot!
amaranth I've never tried their lipsticks. Did you like the formula?
So this is what I have. It's not exactly lipstick I guess, but whatever it is I'm planning to buy more colors. It lasts a few hours and dries well. But I get annoyed when lip paint stays all day so this was the perfect middle ground for me. If you like your mattes to stay all day then tarte lip paint is fabulous. I use tarte when I want an all day neutral, whereS I use bite if I want a color for an event.
