vw, you very much deserve nice things. I hope you get your xBox back quickly.

I'm off to get my hair colored (the same red I currently have) and cut (still unsure about this part), while staring at my phone waiting for Dave to check in.

Poor Cindy! Enough already!

Good luck to Dave, sj!

Cindy, your life sounds like a roller coaster right now. hopefully once the kids actually get to school, you will be able to breathe some.

{{{Cindy}}} Feel better and good luck sending your baby off to school.

Job ~ma for Dave!!!!! All crossable appendages have been crossed.

vw, sweets, so not true. I flip-flop with those kind of thoughts also and it's very much a waste of time. Stress relief comes in tons of different ways and you deserve as much stress relief as you can get.

Is this another Monday secretly disguised as a Tuesday? Drat. Hugs to all the Bitches and gentle, gentle hugs to Cindy. {{{}}}

So hard to believe that Aidan's going to school already. Time (especially 2005, for some reason) goes by so quickly anymore.

I'm off to get my hair colored (the same red I currently have)

Yay! We'll still be hair color twins!

{{{Cindy}}} Oh dear. Wishing you cake, sweetie.

Aidan's first day of school! It's the first step towards world domination.

Cindy and her DH need to feel better right now. Are you listening, universe?

Best quality job~ma to teacup guy.

Busy weekend. I spent the weekend mostly cleaning. Meanwhile my MIL come over to help the school area of the house and redecorate the kids' rooms. My daughter's room now has light purple walls, a dinosaur border, and dinosaur drapes. My son's room has light blue walls, racecar drapes, and words he picked stenciled onto the walls. Unfortunately Leif picked up a virus and is currently running a fever and feeling listless, he looks so pitiful.

It just proves to me that I shouldn't have nice things...or something like that. At least that I shouldn't be spending money on that kind of stuff.

Horse puckey.

and words he picked stenciled onto the walls

That's a really cool idea!

Jobma for Teacup Dave.

(vibing madly for deb all day, although she doesn't read Bitches)

Cindy, it will get better. Really.

I just found out that the guest who was supposed to arrive today got sent to Afghanistan instead, so I get an unexpected 10-day break from guests. I have learned that while I can now care for Mal and prepare food for two, I can't quite care for Mal, prepare food for 4, and take care of guests. The food quality suffered.

Also, why do two extra people result in 10x the amount of dishes?

Because you can't just rinse out your coffee cup from yesterday and use it again when there are witnesses. Not that I would do that.
