Oy, Kat, I don't think I'm going to make it over to get the ladder. I've only got half the books packed, and books are my goal for the day.
How's it sit? Pretty cunning, don'tchya think?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think unpacking is better, because at least you're on the other side of the trauma. Of course, I only hate change ahead of time. When I'm packing, I'm wondering if I've made a huge mistake. When I'm unpacking, I don't think I have after all.
But really, I just hate how much time the transition takes, between finding the place, packing, and the actual move. I always want to be doing the next thing once I know what it is.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm really sorry, Scrappy. All the strength in the world to your family.

They are constantly seesawing between resignation and hope and anxiety and trying to be strong for their other two kids.
It's just all so hard. I'll keep all of you in my prayers still.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Jesse, I'm in that zone right now...I know we are moving, but no clue where. Can't really look for a rental until May/June, but if we don't start the cleaning/clearing/packing process now, we will be paying to move stuff that we will be getting rid of.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Scrappy, I'm so sorry your family has to cope with this.
So, there are these teething biscuits that Noah lovesto smear all over himself, his high chair and otherseat.
Kat, my kids ate those things by the box. Even when they had all their teeth, they loved to crunch them up and eat them. They're nasty when they dissolve but okish when still crunchy. Not that I've ever been tired, desperate and starving curious enough to give them a nibble.
We're on our second viewing of Enchanted right now. Owen is, dare I say, enchanted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Scrappy, my thoughts are with your family.
ION, you know the scene in Pi where the guy drills into his head to cure his migraines? I'm starting to think that sounds like a good idea. This sinus headache has been going on for FOUR. FREAKING. DAYS.
