FWIW, I wish I had Jessica's day.

I have managed to push off four issues to someone else, and plow through the stuff waiting for me from Friday. Now to tackle the unopened mail and the other stack of things with issues.

ION, I ran the numbers and paying someone to pick mac up and keep him at our home until I can get there will cost me the same as his afterschool. I am going to cut back the mother's helpers who are currently coming in every evening to just one evening and will end up with a net savings if all works out. Of course it means I have no help getting household chores and dinner done each night while trying to give mac attention also, but hopefully him having 3 hours of one-on-one attention from someone will balance it out a bit.

“Not dead yet!”

Oh Barb, apparently NBC cut it off before it got worse. It got much worse. There was...shudder...Nickelback.

Oh, as they say... dear.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am losing my voice. I don't have any other cold symptoms, and I barely spoke at all yesterday. I don't know where this is coming from.

I'm very happy to see Annalee saw the hinky with Fast Eddie. It's much better when people come to it on their own and don't need to be taken there.

Good luck with all that, msbelle. Nice to hear the numbers worked out the way they did, at least, even if it's not ideal.

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

The only thing getting me through today is a new Hoarders episode tonight.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have to go out looking for Girl Scouts again, since my last try was unsuccessful.
