sonrisa, I too have been dealing with grandparent favoritism so I understand. I almost made a super long rambling post about it but its hard to explain and not much advice that can given. It sucks a lot though.

I have a second interview on Monday! The job would be remote, but they've asked me to come into the office, which is about 2 hours each way. So unfortunately I have to take the day off. My boss was oddly understanding about me taking the day off and now I feel guilty about trying to leave. I shouldn't, because she gave me 10 minutes to eat lunch yesterday, at 12:45.
I just realized half way through my day that I have my underwear on inside out.
I do this all the freakin time...and then I don't know what to do, flip them or KOKO
Glad I’m not the only one! If I was at home I would have flipped them but since I was at work and I didn’t want to take my shoes off and disrobe from the waist down they are still inside out. Lol
OMG my neighbor texted that their older dog wasn’t in the yard and could we keep and eye out. I went and did a lap and checked our woods, but nothing.
Then I’m inside and every few seconds hear “something.” So I go back outside to that side of the house and realize it’s coming from our pond. The poor thing was just past the reeds shaking and whining. Just as E was putting on her tall boots, the husband came home and stepped in to grab it.
I have no idea how I heard it because DH is out mowing, but I’m so thankful.
She was still shaking, but no other issues. We did joke that was not the preferred way to cool off today!
Hello from what I can only assume is actually hell on earth: Super Nintendo World at Universal Hollywood on a really hot day. We have been here since 6 am and ridden two rides. DS is obsessed with trying to win the mini games which are an hour wait each in the blistering sun. We did get Toadstool Cafe reservations and rode the Bowser ride in under an hour. It's so cool but they really need to be selling timed tickets because it is a mess and someone is going to get hurt. People were running and pushing down the escalators this morning.
gretchenindisguise your mileage may vary if you are an experienced theme park goer. We were not but DS had a good day anyway. We finally made it through the mini game lines and had waited for the final Bowser Jr game and it broke when we were next in line. The park was also running low on bottled water but we brought our own refillable bottles. Wednesday will probably be less busy than a Friday.
Costco has started carrying the Kirkland brand pulled pork again! That used to be a part of our rotation for dinners, but they stopped carrying it and had some other flavorless brand for a while. We just had it for dinner and it's so good - as close to what you'd get at a BBQ restaurant as I've ever had something from the store.
It is pouring rain. It got SO dark out at like 7:15 I was confused about what time it is. It's lighter already but it's coming down hard. Crossing my fingers that the temporary fix the roof guy did earlier this week works....

I am having an allergic reaction to antibiotics. I’m miserable. My body is covered in hives. In the last 8 years I have developed the oddest allergies. Latex, banana, and antibiotic
Night 3 of barely not teenage cousin staying with us. We mentioned the basement gym, but he is still in the guest room doing *something* that is either sex or push-ups and jumping jacks. And he clears his throat every 10 seconds. Loudly. I cannot figure this guy out.
Also, h picked up a Costco pizza. It’s gone. H and I each had two slices. Kid ate 3/4 of a Costco pizza 😳😳😳 Last night, a full pan of baked ziti was gone. Respect for all you moms of teenage boys.
I see other people out there taking off their shoe to test the ground to make sure it isn't too hot for their dogs feet. And then there are my dogs who go outside and LAY on the asphalt driveway. Like, on purpose. What is wrong with my dogs? LOL
That's my dog too. He will just stand there in the middle of crossing the street. Or he'll go lay down in the full sun in the backyard. It's like um, hey dog, you have to keep moving, did anyone tell you that? Lol

I always try to direct my dog to the grass on walks, but he insists on staying on asphalt. Like help me help you, bird brain!! 😂 my dog would survive in the wild for about 6 minutes.

Banana and latex allergies together is actually really common. I guess they’re from similar trees. Avocado is also closely related to the two.
I’m sorry about the hives. I also developed a bunch of allergies as an adult. It sucks.
My H’s sister was diagnosed with breast cancer today. She is 47. Their mother passed away at 59 from breast cancer. They are a family that doesn’t talk about feelings so everyone will bottle it up and pretend all is fine.
It’s not fine. It’s okay to be sad, upset and scared.

I’m miserable. I’m up trying to not scratch. I woke myself up digging in my legs.
Latex and bananas do correlate. My allergist told me to avoid avocados if possible. I am still eating them on very rare occasions and only at home. I can monitor my reaction a lot better if one develops. I will cry when the time comes I have to eliminate all together.
I’m sorry you have allergies too. I am not fan of epi pen type reactions.

My older dog hates walking on grass. She does everything she can to take the fewest steps on grass. It's kind of comical but it drives me nuts when it's so hot outside!

We have a state park near us with a great pool complex. I bought the season pass so the kids and I went with another family for the day. The kids go play and the moms chat. It was a great way to spend the day.

Ugh, I'm sorry. I developed an allergy to the antibiotic that I take when I get diverticulitis attacks and my daughter randomly developed an allergy to penicillin. The hives are the worst. I hope you feel better soon.
