For lunch today she wanted ham. (Bacon, hot dogs and pork roll---all which loves AREN'T ham and wouldn't suffice). She wanted a spiral ham. You know the kind that you get MAYBE 3 times a year.
So I told her that we didn't have it. She said that Uncle Rob (my BIL who usually hosts the holidays and coincidentally always serves ham at the holidays) has ham and that we should go there.
I love whole wheat bread. It has so much more flavor than white bread.
I figured out that I can get my kid to eat like 3 times as much food, if I let her use an adult fork. Fuck.Yes. I've got a 20 pound 2 year old, so this is good news for me.
I'm heading out for zumba in about 40 minutes. I'm hoping to do the children's museum later today. I've been letting Z use electronics way too much lately and I want to do something out of the house, as a family, since my H will play video games all day if we're home.
@Starearedkid hope all stay healthy at your place @ready-or-not periods?!? Oh lord no! I don't even want to think about that shit! @slednecksmomma hope you and DH can talk soon. We are having our fair share of troubles here too. Between me going back to work early from mat leave, him working shift work and me trying to find a new sitter things are a little tense here. @LuckyDad and @haygurlhay bite me! I'd give my left tit for temps in the 90s. It's supposed to be 19C here today and we are celebrating by wearing shorts. @KJLx121 way to go!
We are headed to a birthday party this afternoon and the stock car races tonight! Flower planting tomorrow!
My mom also refused to buy white. She's not a hippy just a health freak.
Same. I bought white bread for like 3 months straight after I first moved out. Then got over it and went back to whole wheat. Now white is like a special treat for French toast and stuff.
Kitchen cleaned and I'm working on dd's room while So does the spare(read junk) room. I have a huge box of summer clothes to wash and take to a friend. Her DD will have a.summer wardrobe for 2 years.
No, it only tastes good with 7 metric tons of mustard and 10 slices of cheese. By then I've probably cancelled out any healthy properties and might as well just eat white bread.
I always make up these massive mental lists of what I want to get done in a day and then feel like a failure when I won't finish before dh gets home.
I mean, logically I know I wouldn't get it done if I didn't have kids. But somehow I expect to do it with kids and with a party this afternoon.
Try to hold yourself to the same standards you would hold a friend.
I struggle with the same self disappointment. It helps to treat myself like a normal person.
I'm so bad about this. And it's all internal. Dh gets annoyed because I apologize for not getting it all done and he doesn't care if it's done... And he likes to help so he thinks it's silly I stress about it.
Supposed to be working but it's dead here, no one wants drugs today. Oh, and the Nelson's people have set up shop in our parking lot today so the whole place smells like chicken. So now I'm bored and hungry.

I'm halfway through the room redo you suggested. I swear there's already twice as much space.
